[devel] Maybe this was already covered in the past ...but...

Has anyone given thought to creating a true user interface to the
MagicPoint project using its engine as a backend.  You can look at it as
a dependency or you can pick a branch of the MagicPoint software and
distribute its core with your software under a /usr/lib/criawips
directory.  

This way you can focus on the front end.  You have a file format to work
with .mgp and you are giving yourself a serious headstart.  The two big
tasks facing you after that is designing a proper canvas and porting
over the filters for the PowerPoint M$ format from the OpenOffice guys.

Just a thought.  Love to see this project hit stride and take off.
