Hi Mir developers,

I see there is already Qt + Mir couples, but maybe someone want to play
with Gdk Mir backend even if just for fun :)
If someone want to break up Mir && Qt replaced with Gtk, please let me
know :)

Leslie,

I would love to do the GDK backend. And have been hoping to find the 
time to do so, but it's not a team priority just yet.

If you or anyone else has the time then please do. GDK, and hence native 
GTK apps, would be cool.

Daniel,

Cool :)

I will play with Gdk Mir backend, the source code might be host in github.

Leslie,

Great, thanks.

An example of basic Mir setup, pixel blitting and input can be seen 
here: 
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~mir-team/mir/trunk/view/head:/examples/fingerpaint.c

That's the basic stuff I imagine GDK will need.

If anything is missing/broken, please let us know.

- Daniel

Thanks, I have already experienced Mir server & client demo

And I also pay some attention to the Mir API for developing
