Hi all!


I think, everybody wanna see one more bugfix release of libgii and libggi.
But still some things are still left to get them ready.

Here is a list of known things. If you know any other issues, not
mentioned here, then please let us know.



------------------------------------------
Status symbols
------------------------------------------
- still to do
* completed



TODO stuff for libgii:

------------------------------------------
Next release
------------------------------------------
Version : 0.8.2

- Get rid of the AC_TRY_RUN warning when running autogen.sh
  Note: This is related to endian detection done by a compiled and
  executed program AC_C_BIGENDIAN.  It might be better to create a catalog
  of endianess that is indexed by $host_cpu set by AC_CANONICAL_HOST.
- Fix libtool problem with inter-dependendy libraries on OpenBSD 3.0.
  It creates static libs, if it creates any libs at all.
* Document using filters in the docbook (May need double check)
- Write a device driver/filter developers guide.
- Check that all drivers are giving a device name, not just name of
  driver.
* BUGFIX: Make devinfo related structures exist per-input (Eric)
- Verify, if devinfo related structures per-input BUGFIX works.
* BUGFIX: Make libgii working in a multi-threaded environment (Andreas Beck)
- Enumerate all devices in input-linux-evdev


TODO stuff for libgii:

------------------------------------------
Next minor release (BUGFIX release)
------------------------------------------
Version : 2.0.2

- cleanup demo building and installation
- bring improved code in showaccel demo to showaccel2 demo
* why is directfb drawing on only every other pixel column? (was DFB bug)
* use config file instead of static accel_strings array in fbdev
* enable DirectFB
- Make XF86DGA working with XF86 3.x and XF86 4.x
- Verify and fix cross-compilation to other architectures
- Fix libtool to create shared libs instead of static ones
  on Linux/MIPS boxes. This misbehaviour lets compile and install, but
  don't run GGI on Linux/MIPS boxes.
- Fix libtool problem with inter-dependendy libraries on OpenBSD 3.0.
  It creates static libs, if it creates any libs at all.
- The default value of the configure option '--with-gii' should always be
  the same as the '--prefix' one, independent if '--prefix' is specified
  by the user or not, unless '--with-gii' is specified by the user itself.
  This simplifies compiling libggi on a machine with no root-permissions.
* disable libKGI target, because it's currently a "proof-of-concept"
* BUGFIX: Make X target threadsafe. (Andreas Beck)
* BUGFIX: Make Xlib target threadsafe. (Christoph Egger)
- Verify, if other targets are threadsafe.
- BUGFIX: Both X and Xlib targets doesn't handle the colors correctly,
  when the X-server uses ABGR instead of RGBA.



CU,
