PSARC,

I am sponsoring this fast track for Darren Kenny of the Gnome group
in Dublin, Ireland.  I have set the timeout for Wednesday February 20th,
2008.  The case directory contains this proposal.

This project introduces the Python XDG (also known as PyXDG) open source
python library into a Minor release of Solaris.  This Python module
implements several freedesktop.org specifications.  Again, the contract
is being done in parallel.

Thanks,

John

4. Technical Description:
    4.1. Details:

        Python XDG (also known as PyXDG) is an open source python library to
        access freedesktop.org specifications. Currently supported are:

        - Base Directory Specification Version 0.6
          - Provides API for users to get the locations of the XDG
            directories.

        - Menu Specification Version 1.0
          - Provides API for the parsing and editing of XDG Menu files and the
            application menu. 

        - Desktop Entry Specification Version 0.9.4
          - Provides API to enable the parsing or creation of a .desktop or
            .directory file, check it for syntax and extract property values.

        - Icon Theme Specification Version 0.8
          - Provides API to enable the parsing or creation of Icon Theme
            .theme files, check for syntax and extract property values.

        - Recent File Spec 0.2
          - Provides API for loading/adding/deleting/saving of recently used
            files list.

        - Shared-MIME-Database Specification 0.13
          - Provides API to parse the XDG mime database and query/additions of
            type handlers.
