Hello Community Congratulations everyone for the reunification.
To kick off the process, shall we finalize channels we are going to use for communication so that all the developers involved know what is going on and where. Which ML and IRC would be used for 'semi-official' communication etc. 1. Danny, Quinn and Marex have already started working on compiz-plugins-beryl-premerge tree on http://gitweb.beryl-project.org. The tree has a complete build system with ./autogen.sh && make && make install set up. 2. Mikedee is keeping tarballs of individually packaged plugins, users would have to make && make install them individually and apply schemas. Are we going to use one of these methods of distribution or both? 3. Cornelius is working on animation plugin at git.compiz.org which is part of Mikedee's tarball but not of the tree at beryl-project. So how is development going to take place, all independent or in one place? 4. Compiz core and compiz-extras tarball is using gconf schemas, while compiz-plugins-beryl-premerge is using bcop options for settings schemas. 5. In Compiz translated strings are part of gconf schemas, in beryl we fetched the strings from the plugin and libberylsettings handled conveying translated strings to the frontend, how will it be handled now? 6. libbs for ini, gconf and kconfig backends for settings frontends is in works, I am not sure of its status. 7. I have a vague idea that someone is working on a settings frontend, not sure of the status too though. Could someone fill in the gaps and keep everyone updated. Thanks and have a great time ahead. -J -- CyberOrg _______________________________________________ compiz mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/compiz
