hi everyone;

one of the things I'd like to start is writing a short report on what
happened over the week in Clutter-land - both in bugzilla and in the
repository.

I'll try and keep doing this every week, in the hope that people will
find it useful to keep up with the state of clutter while we approach
the 1.0 milestone.

= releases =

+ clutter-0.8.4, the third stable release of the core library, has been
pushed on the server at clutter-project.org. lots of bug fixes and some
small new feature backported from trunk.

= svn: stable branch (clutter-0-8) =

+ fixed for bug 1309, bug 1297, bug 1303, bug 1305 have been backported
from trunk to the stable branch. users of mutter and gnome-shell on GPUs
that only support ARB_texture_rectangle will be able to see some
improvements.

= svn: development branch (trunk) =

+ Neil merged the ClutterBehaviourPath and ClutterBehaviourBspline
behaviours into a single class; this new behaviour will take a Path
object that can be described using a set of nodes; a Path can also be
described using a notation compatible with the SVG description of a
path. this was a 1.0 roadmap item.

+ the disjoint paths and clip-to-path features have landed; it allows
you to use cogl to draw multiple paths at the same time, and also to
have non-rectangular shaped clips. this was a 1.0 roadmap item.

+ support for using cogl with native textures using
ARB_texture_rectangle, and allow the texture-from-pixmap actor to use
them if needed.

+ avoid artifacts with non-pixel-aligned NPOT textures

+ more units for the test suite:
  - backface culling

= bugzilla =

+ 91 bugs opened against Clutter core
  - 30 are marked as enhancements
+ 10 bugs with 0.8 target milestone (bugs that can, or may be fixed in
trunk and backported to the current stable branch)
+ 15 bugs with 1.0 target milestone (bugs that should be fixed in trunk
before 1.0.0 is released)

ciao,
 Emmanuele.
