Hi,

To put some context on this (and Javier is working for Igalia, so is probably intimately aware of what's been pushed and isn't):

"pushing" Hildon, in the sense you're using it, is not the same as the sense Javier is using it.

qgil is "pushing" Hildon, in that he is encouraging Maemo developers to do the work to maintain Himdon and ensure out outlives the official support for Maemo.

Javier is talking about Hildon application developers taking over the maintainership of the library, and "pushing" any changes they need for that in upstream projects - that is, if (say) Hildon needed to get an official GTK+ patched to have an important feature, Javier is suggesting that it should be the Hildon maintainers who cook up a patch, propose it to the GTK+ maintainers, and track it until it gets into the upstream library.

I specifically haven't mentioned Conny, because he has offered to take some of the maintenance burden of Hildon. But aside from him, there has been a lack of people who have come forward to hack on Hildon, to evaluate the diff between Maemo's GTK+ and the official upstream GTK+ and see what patches can be dropped, and which can be brought back down to Hildon, and which need to be included upstream.

It's useful when using words like "push" that we are on the same page about what that means.

Thanks!
Dave.
