We tested all the changes that are described in the change log. Below you
can see the results.
As far as we can see, there are no critical bugs in the code nor have new
bugs been produced since the last release.
Could not test:
> [FIX] Prevent execution of Created FileActivities on equal content
>
> /*Performance improvements*/
> - To improve the performance, the name tag annotations and
> the remote selection annotation are only updated, if the remote user
> stops typing or moving for 200 milliseconds.
>
Worked after an additional fix:
> [GUI] show the nickname of the inviter on the invitation page
>
Worked as they should:
> /*GUI/UI changes*/
> [GUI] Placed the host on top of the roster during a running session
> - Previously the roster was sorted with remote users (themselves sorted
> alphabetically) over the local user (aka oneself). Now the
> whereabout of a
> user doesn't matter: The host of the session is on top, the rest of
> the
> users are sorted alphabetically below him.
> [UI] Non-Host users can't add projects to sessions anymore
> - Disabled the possibility for non-hosts to add projects to the
> session.
> Projects that were added by non-hosts could cause strange behaviors,
> especially if the host delayed or canceled the negotiation.
> [GUI] Removed auto follow option
> - It was random, whom was followed.
> - the "double-click-to-follow" mechanism is too easy and quick to keep
> this
> feature.
> [GUI] Logic of follow mode toolbar button is changed
> - Random follow mode was removed
> - Clicking on the button will now switch follow mode to the next
> session
> user. Furthermore a dropdown menu has been added to select a
> specific user
> who should be followed.
> [GUI] inconsistency icon now "flashes" on detected inconsistency
> [GUI] rename "buddy" to "contact" because not everyone is a buddy
> [GUI] show error dialogs after the wizard has closed
> - before a error dialog could be shown on top of a wizard
> [GUI|UX] detailed sound playback selection
> - user could enable/disable all four sound events separately
> - supported sound events: contact comes online/offline and chat
> message
> sent/received
> [GUI] replaced watchdog inconsistency icons
> - new and more comprehensible icons
> - suited for color blind users (ok = blue, error = red)
> [GUI] cleaned up the AccountWizardPage
> [GUI] Name tags on cursor of remote users
> [GUI] See colored multiple line selections of your contacts
> - whitespace stays colorless
> [GUI] Settings for the ContributionAnnotation
> The option for changing the visibility of the contribution
> annotation is
> now on the Saros Appearance preference page in the annotations
> group. It
> was on the Saros Advanced preference page before.
> [UI] Invitation Wizard now properly displays partially shared projects
> The file count and total file size is now calculated for partial
> shared
> projects so that the results can be shown on the invitee's side.
> [UI] Better error descriptions in case of connecting errors
> - It should now be more clear if a domain could not be resolved or
> connecting to the server failed (e.g wrong domain/IP or port).
>
> /*Bugfixes*/ ++Bugnummern aus Bugtracker(sourceforge)
> [FIX] #226 After a connection error, Saros infinitly tried to reconnect
> [FIX] #776 Colors in the Chat view did not match participants' colors
> [FIX] #605 Saros doesn't reliably detect a broken internet connection

> [FIX] #799 Finish button is not enabled when restoring file selections
> [FIX] #808 Inconsistencies after invitation are fixed

> - During a session, the session host can change the
> read/write-permissions
> of himself in addition to the session users'.
> [FIX] The VCS(version control system) support feature is working again
> - It was broken since release 13.3.1 as it mistakenly got disabled
> during session setup. Now it works again.
> [FIX] User color square is no longer hidden
> - When selecting a user in the SarosView (running session) the color
> square
> was not visible (Win XP) or shaded (Win Aero). Now the color square
> is
> drawn on top of the current background to ensure that it is fully
> "visible".
> [FIX] Fixed error display during "add project" rejection
> - When rejecting the "add project" dialog on project sharing, now a
> information window appears instead of error window.

> opportunity to
> revert those changes.
> [FIX] Remote users now can see, when the local user opens a non-shared file

> host side
>
> /*features*/
> [FEATURE] hyperlinks for chat communication
