Touch Interface GUI design
This may not be applicable yet, but it might be helpful to consider what interface elements might need to be adjusted for touch interfaces (iPad, Android, and similar). On those the resolution might be greater or smaller than an ordinary screen and/or multiple/changeable orientation. The register and other elements would need to handle options and data entry for non-precise ("fat-fingered") selections.

I’m sorry, but no, development on any of the tablet operating systems is a completely different topic. I.e. to have an app there, you would have to create a completely new application from scratch (in other programming languages etc.). This is a different project than the current desktop gnucash application.

Thanks for your time; I was thinking long term, with the upcoming additions to X and the underlying development environments so legacy technologies would be supported in the newer environments. Still "bleeding edge" and not a lot to see. http://blogs.gnome.org/carlosg/2010/01/29/multi-touch-support-in-linuxxorggtk/ for example.
SO I am a little confused by the "declined" status, though I understand the need to limit the development focus to what is here and now.
