Re: [gcmd-dev] Gnome-vfs to Gio/gvfs migration issues

[Vlad G.]

Hi Uwe,

I've just now seen your email.
I am not up to speed with gio (I had one small try years ago[1]:) and can't 
promise anything other than that I am available to take a shot on helping with 
this.

Tell me, do you already have started something, have some plans, can you hand 
me some separate task to test my rusty skills, or should I just begin adding 
the gio dependency and walk myself throught the code?

Thanks for taking care of this awesome project, btw!

Btw, I remember how frustrating was the gtk3+ treeview from that project, as 
opposed to the clist:)
