KDE & Gnome agree on Drag-and-Drop protocol!

Glenn W. Bach writes "Version 2 of the XDND Drag-And-Drop protocol is finally finished. The major new feature is the ability to specify arbitrary actions independently of the data types. The protocol is described at link. This protocol is supported by JX and Qt, and will soon be supported by Gtk, so programs written for Gnome, programs written for KDE, and programs like Code Crusader and Arrow will all be able to work together on the same desktop. The related file dragging protocol described here guarantees that the Gnome and KDE file managers will be interchangeable. The full (and growing) list of supporters is kept over here. "
