I am pleased to announce the availability of the third release candidate for Emacs Muse 3.03, namely: Emacs Muse 3.02.93.
Revision :: [EMAIL PROTECTED]/muse--main--0--patch-245= Tarball :: http://download.gna.org/muse-el/muse-3.02.93.tar.gz Zip file :: http://download.gna.org/muse-el/muse-3.02.93.zip The NEWS items for this release candidate (compared to Emacs Muse 3.02.8) are [[/static/dist/muse/NEWS-3.03][here]]. Here are some changes from the second release candidate. For the complete list, see the ChangeLog file. - Relative links to Muse pages are supported (i.e. "../", "./"). - The infamous Emacs 22 bug is fixed. - Definition lists are now allowed to have some indentation on the second and greater lines. - Some tags (like <class> and <quote>) may now be nested inside of another tag of the same type. - Better description text for WikiNames in PDF output. - Remove C-c C-c keybinding so as not to conflict with Planner. - Better interaction of interwiki links inside of explicit links. - Handle links to non-Muse files inside of a Muse project directory. - Add support for importing Docbook and generic XML files into Muse, thanks to Elena Pomohaci. - Make muse-blosxom handle tags better, and implement support for #postdate, thanks to Sasha Kovar. - Protect WikiWords in headings for Texinfo output, thanks to Jim Ottaway. - Work better in situations where there are a lot of files in a project and implicit matching of filenames is desired in muse-wiki.el. ** The future I will focus primarily on bringing the documentation up to par, especially the `Projects' section of the manual and the QuickStart guide (which is especially out-of-date). I anticipate changing the license of the manual to the GFDL so that it may more easily be included with Emacs, once Emacs 22 comes out. The QuickStart guide will be placed under the GPL, so that Debian users can still have something to refer to on their local system. Due to Debian's unfortunate and ill-advised decision (in my opinion) to effectively remove all GFDL'd documentation from their distribution, I will not distribute the Muse manual in Debian at all once this licensing change is complete (I will absolutely forbid it, to the extent that I am reasonably able, from being distributed as part of Debian's "non-free" section). I will, however, provide a Ubuntu package that contains both the Muse source and the manual. Again, this will happen in future releases and release candidates, and not this particular release candidate. Also, expect an interesting markup proposal from David Smith at some point in the near future which might make it into the 3.03 release. It would fill in a deficiency in the current Muse markup. Finally, I still plan to fix any bugs that I have marked as Blocker-level on the Muse bug-tracker. Definite progress was made in this release candidate, and nested list support (easily the most difficult change I've implemented in 3.03) feels very polished at this point. Some bugs relating to the escaping of special characters have me a bit worried, especially w.r.t. LaTeX. I could use some help in polishing this area of Muse. Nonetheless, if this current rate of development holds steady, we could easily finish 3.03 by the end of the year. I expect to make at least one more release candidate before the 3.03 release. -- Michael Olson -- FSF Associate Member #652 -- http://www.mwolson.org/ Interests: Emacs Lisp, text markup, protocols -- Jabber: mwolson_at_hcoop.net /` |\ | | | Projects: Emacs, Muse, ERC, EMMS, Planner, ErBot, DVC |_] | \| |_| Reclaim your digital rights by eliminating DRM.
