Right. The gui rewrite was a huge part of extended that was incorporated into vanilla. Obviously the plugin mechanism makes deken possible!
I’d like to find a way to bring in the consistent font sizing in as well as the help patches Jonathan updated. Maybe worth bringing up again? There is a lot of good work that shouldn’t be lost with the transition, if possible.

Moving towards deken definitely makes sense.
FYI, for anyone interested, it would not be hard to do a Pd-extended update if it is just a matter of updating the libraries.
I think the future of my work on something like Pd-extended would be to make a new standard library that covers lots of stuff. That was really the original idea of Pd-extended, funny enough.

Yeah, that’s what I mean. Basically so people will stop downloading an out of date extended if there is an easy way to get the same/similar functionality from a much newer version of vanilla+externals. Judging from the continued extended bug reports of things which are generally fixed in vanilla, I’m thinking it would be a good idea to see what’s needed for a transition and start that more formal conversation.

If by 'relative parity' you mean availability of all the externals the last version of Pd-extended came with, this might have been reached already. Search for 'extended' in deken. It shows a lot of (all?) externals directly packaged from Pd-extended. Many thanks to IOhannes for uploading all those.
