is your plasmoid P.I.G.ish?

today i started a page on the plasma dev wiki for the Plasma Interface Guidelines. it's just a start, mostly with some categories that need filling in over time. only the category naming section is currently filled in.

but i thought i'd share it anyways because the acronym is just so ... fun. Plasma Interface Guidelines, or PIG.

we'll have version 1.0 of the PIG ready for kde 4.0 so that we can ensure that applets have a standard by which to live by, otherwise knowing as being PIG compliant.

mmmpf! i can hardly say that without giggling.

(props to the-other-aaron for suggesting the name ;)

It just remembers me the March Of The Pigs song of Nine Inch Nails: "all the pigs are all lined up..."

Keep up the great work in Plasma (and now in PIG)!

Hmm, you live and code by the PIG? Is that some vegetarian code? ;)

Pig complient; mwhahaha; that sounds like dr. Evil. Here are some more;
Rat: Reality Altering Technology
Pork: Plasmoids & Organics Reinvent Kde

Oh, well, enough fun :) On with Human-Plasma Interaction!

Don't code your plasmoids like a pig and just follow the PIG !

Sounds cool :).

Mmkay, now you just need to find a proper meaning for P.O.N.Y. and all the artists will be happy as well ;)

@pedro:

"I give you all that you want" ;-)

That could easily become true if Plasma turns out well :-) Yay for Aaron!
