Description: ------------ This probably needs to be worked out with Greg, but I think it would be nice to try and grab imgChannelLogo from the channel server (and store it localy maybe) if there is no logo in the pixmaps directory for the currently loaded channel. This way all channels have the chance to show a logo and the package doesn't need to ship with a ton of logo files. Something could be added to the channel server XML that gives the URL to the logo file. Sort of like a favicon for a web site. Test script: --------------- <channel version="1.0" xsi:schemaLocation="http://pear.php.net/dtd/channel-1.0 http://pear.php.net/dtd/channel-1.0.xsd"> <name>pear.example.com</name> <summary>example.com</summary> <suggestedalias>example</suggestedalias> <pearfrontendlogo>http://pear.example.com/logo.png</pearfrontendlogo> <servers> ... </servers> </channel>

this can be implemented already using REST in the existing channel.xml format. <baseurl type="channellogo1.0">http://pear.example.com/logo</baseurl> then the Gtk2/web frontend just checks for the support of channellogo1.0 REST and grabs the logo.
