Hi everyone, I apologise for the delays; I've spent the last week and a half doing some final clean-up and review in preparation for an initial release of FoxtrotGPS. This includes finishing the conversion of the 4k+ line autogenerated interface.c to GladeXML/libglade, creation of a new icon for use in place of the tangoGPS icon, consistency-checks, functional verification of the new libglade code, fixing some remaining bugs that prevented me from testing, and reviewing all of the improvements that we've made beyond tangoGPS 0.99.3 for the creation of an informative NEWS file.
At this point, I'd like to release a baseline `stable branch' of FoxtrotGPS that's basically `a fixed version of tangoGPS' so that we can start incorporating more disruptive changes into foxtrotgps-dev (like replacing the map-loading/-drawing and friend-finder engines). I believe that the code and the GladeXML UI-definition are solid at this point; one thing that still should be resolved, however, is that the conversion of the GUI to GladeXML broke the translations: most notably, the conversion of the combo-box widgets to GladeXML rearranged the strings such that each list's items are all in one long, newline-delimited string rather than each item being a distinct translatable string; there are also some minor changes in whitespace padding. I tried going over these things myself, and I was able to reduce the scope of the diffs using sed, `msgcat -s', msguniq, etc. to a point where I could come to that conclusion, but I think that I need actual translators familiar with the languages in question to do the updates. -- "Don't be afraid to ask (λf.((λx.xx) (λr.f(rr))))." _______________________________________________ This message is sent to you from [email protected] mailing list.
