Sorry for the delay in making a comment on this, guys, but ever since the N900 showed up, the number of 'new' messages in the talk forum has exploded to the point that I can no longer keep up!

I am almost afraid to ask what success anyone may have had in running any of my old Diablo astrononomy apps/applets on the N900 (which I do NOT have, probably will not have for a long time, or maybe even not at all)?

I recall reading comments about the switch away from GTK (?), which would be tragic for any efforts that I might want to put in. Otherwise, I am not sure of the effort required to 'port' to Maemo 5 -- though I would suspect that it would be extremely frustrating and unrewarding to do so without having an N900 myself to enjoy it with

For a long time now I have been wanting to release a new version of MEphemeris, but I am waiting for bug fixes in the library routines. I wonder how many are even interested anymore -- have all of you switched over the the N900? Are there any N8xx Diablo people left?
