Is the CSSU effort still alive? I've been doing some updating efforts of my own and have ported Maemo 4.x API changes to new versions of glib, libpixmap, cairo, pango, and atk. My idea is to get a brand new GTK+ stack on the tablets. I also ported a new version of bluez (see here: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=81323), but that will take some recoding in order to get the Bluetooth applet to play nice. Also ported dbus, but that's out of whack for some reason.
Anyway, I'm working on porting the latest GTK+ at the moment. I've got a big diff file that's about 24k lines of patches and have gotten through 4k =). Is there an IRC channel you guys hang out on? Let me know if you'd like to use my source packages.
I wanted to do an update with some of the diablo-turbo fixes, but because of lack of time I didn't fixed the packaging yet.
We also have the applet desktop locking patch, and bstern patches.
We just need to put everything together with proper packaging.
Btw, why do you want to update the gtk stack? Because any program which depends on a newer gtk?

Any chance of getting an updated video codec for Google Talk?

Looks like Google Talk uses H.264 for video (http://code.google.com/apis/talk/ope...nications.html), which is heavily patent-encumbered. There's x264, an open source implementation, but I don't know what the legal ramifications are. At any rate, it should be feasible technically, assuming that's the only major hurdle. I'll look into it.

whew! I am on board with this. N810 getting a little rusty, but i will turn off flip clock, dust off the screen and prepare for testing. before the cssu release i was taking the beta updates for lma, i would be happy to jump onboard again! unfortunatly i dont have much coding xp, but i can definatly test and report! let me know if you want an N810 and a power user to abuse!

Can you point me to this binary blob in Gentoo?

Gentoo uses the deb provided by Google.
If Pidgin has support and someone can make the new plugin work on Maemo then it would probably be more feasible to get it working with Pidgin.
