[gef-dev] New Simple(r) Example

[Pratik Shah <ppshah@xxxxxxxxxx>]

There have been several requests for
a rudimentary example, and we plan to start working on one soon.  It's
going to be a drawing editor.  Below is a list of some initial requirements
that we have thought of.  If there's anything else you'd like to see
added (or removed), please let us know.

- Two basic shapes (ellipse and rectangle)
will be supported
- Two types of connections
- Ability to move/resize shapes
- Ability to color shapes (possibly)
- Outline Tree
- Properties View support
- Zooming (possibly)

The basic features you'd expect in an
editor of this type (undo/redo, deletion, palette, etc.) will all be supported.
 Does this example sound like a good starting point for novices?
