ericb->msicotte

The summary is IMHO too generic, and I fear too much work is concerned.

msicotte => ericb

I agree - this is too generic for an issue.  I suggest we use it for a
meta-issue like the "Top Ten" for the biggest part of the GSOC you are
mentoring.  Here is what the WIKI entry for the GSOC says:

MacOSX: Complete User Interface respecting Aqua Human Interface Guidelines
* Tasks: some controls are already implemented, but some are still missing. 

The job consists in write the code and implement:
- tabs (implement and bind the TabitemValue class, using Carbon API)
- spinbuttons (implement and bind SpinbuttonValue class, using Carbon API)
- comboboxes (implement and use HICombobox)
- listboxes (work already started)
- texts in comboboxes / listboxes (better task definition to be completed)
- other types of controls: highlight, respect dimensions/spacing ..etc
(only one line omitted as not relevant) 

IMHO this is almost the same - 

If you do not accept, please close the issue.

Thanks,  Mike

yes, too generic.

Closing.
