Hi Thomas,

	It looks nice :-) Of course, we require an MPL/LGPLv3+ dual license for
code contributions - so it'd be great to have a blanket statement to the
list about that, that we can link into:

	http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/Developers

	Reading the code there, it's not that clear to me how the fading works,
something I should have dug at before. Does our timeout handler cope
with a machine where the re-rendering is very slow gracefully ? ie. by
limiting the transition to an absolute time - and checking current-time
in the timeout handler ?

	Anyhow - this'd be for Cedric to review really. Do you have some other
issues you're interested in looking at ? [ the fade-in controls around
writer objects is an idea that could be extended quite a lot to other
things in writer I suspect ;-].

	Thanks again,

		Michael.
