Hi,

Sorry for joining the discussion at this late stage.

The main concerns and obstacles have already been mentioned by others, and I 
really think that except for common icons and shortcuts there is not much 
that can be done. To expect that any of the projects would change their 
toolkit is illusionary at best.

However, there is another area that might deserve some work. As at least some 
of you know, Adobe CSx provides a software called Adobe Bridge 
(http://www.adobe.com/products/creativesuite/bridge/), a media/asset manager 
that can be accessed by all CS apps. It would be great to have something 
similar for FLOSS graphics apps, including easily accessible interfaces.

Such a project may also help to speed up the further development of shared 
resources and specs.

Any thoughts?

Cheers

Christoph
