My personal opinion right now (but I might still change my mind) is that I'd like to see it in a separate repository (and Go module) that depends on Gal=E8ne. I've already started exporting some Gal=E8ne internals in order to avoid code duplication. There are good reasons to keep the interface separate: 1. Gal=E8ne is intended to be easy to integrate into an existing website (imagine adding videoconferencing functionality to a cat video forum or an e-learning platform). For embedding, it would probably be better to provide the right hooks for an external interface rather than a complete management interface. 2. People's opinions on management interfaces are likly to be variable, and therefore it would be good to not bind too closely Gal=E8ne with a single management interface. There are also some reasons to merge the two: I. Having a single repository will make it easier to install both at the same time. II. Having a canonical management interface integrated with Gal=E8ne will reduce user confusion. I'd like to hear people's opinions on the subject. -- Juliusz
