aisu,
for all my brilliant programming I still know little about how to make use of these improvements in other areas.

there is a great deal of uncertainly about how far clutter based rendering will be central to the UI and if I simply carry on using XV alone may end up with a lovely sketch app which is *just* for the n810 and which would not be usable elsewhere.

Until this week I had all but stopped development on the current untidy liqbase and set myself a target of a simple documented library and widget which I could use on my current n810 and on any other device I wanted to create my sketching app and anything else I want.

I'm not going to put this app manager into liqbase itself, but it will become one of the examples in the liqbase library documentation and its an important step towards me improving the general look and feel of my applications.
