[edit] Feature or application?
Do we know whether this is a separate application or just a feature of the existing Mac OS X window manager Quartz Compositor? My guess would be the latter. If so I'd suggest Spaces should just be mentioned on the Quartz Compositor page rather than having its own separate page. AlistairMcMillan 21:28, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
- I'm not sure if Spaces will be presented as an application. But I think it will be regarded as such by lay users of Mac OS X. The majority of new features unveiled during the recent keynote were applications (except for Core Animation), Spaces was, to my impression, treated more or less as a standalone application (it has it's own icon and name). The same goes for Exposé, which you proposed to merge as well, I just noticed. I think both Exposé and Spaces will generally be seen as standalone applications. A regular Mac user will refer more often to something like Exposé, than using a feature of the Quartz Compositor. However, that fact needs to mentioned in both articles if the decision will be not to merge. mensch • t 00:46, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
- Hmm...I'm not sure. It's presented as feature, and it has its own "Spaces.app" in the applications folder. O_o --M1ss1ontomars2k4 (T | C | @) 17:33, 15 October 2006 (UTC)
Spaces even has it's own Icon. Zazaban 02:01, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
