Hi everyone. So I'd like to start with an update saying that we've hit a pretty big milestone in our 0.9.0 plans for world domination - that is that the last plugin, DBus, has finally been ported and works. [1] The code is currently undergoing review, and once some inconsistencies are fixed up, it looks set for inclusion into master.
This means that along with this, a 2D GTK Window decorator, git changes amongst other things we are extremely close to fufilling our release criteria for an unstable 0.9.0. So we need to sort out the logistics of a release. I have written a release announcement that can be found on GObby. Feel free to edit it, it's probably not perfect by any stretch of the imagination. The next thing we need to sort out is making sure all the branches have been swapped over and that everything can be found in /compiz on git. We also need to update the main page and the wiki to take into account that the 0.9 branch is the one that everyone doing development or testing should be using. I will handle publicity related stuff. There are only a few more bugs that need to be fixed before a release is all good, namely: 1. The initial stacking bug has come back again :( 2. Bug with GTK Window Decorator where reloading the decor plugin will cause ti to fail 3. Windows disappearing when they change their title / size. I think this was introduced only recently, so I can probably bisect to find out what caused it and revert that commit. Congrats everyone for staying on board and once we get 0.9.0 out of the way, we can truly say that 1.3+ years of rather boring work rewriting code is out of the way.
