Parti 0.0.3 (2008-02-20)
========================
Massive refactoring occurred for this release.
wimpiggy: The WM backend parts of Parti have been split off into a
separate package known as wimpiggy. As compared to the corresponding
code in 0.0.2, wimpiggy 0.0.3 adds:
-- Compositing support
-- Model/view separation for client windows (based on compositing
support)
-- Improved client hint support, including icon handling, strut
handling, and more correct geometry handling.
-- Keybinding support
-- Event dispatching that doesn't leak memory
-- Better interaction with already running window managers (i.e., a
--replace switch as seen in metacity etc.)
parti: This package will eventually become the real window manager,
but for now is essentially a testbed for wimpiggy.
xpra: This is a new, independent program dependent on wimpiggy (which
is why wimpiggy had to be split out). It implements 'screen for X' --
letting one run applications remotely that can be detached and then
re-attached without losing state. This is the first release, but
while not perfect, it is substantially usable.
general: The test runner was hacked to share a single X/D-Bus session
across multiple tests. This speeds up the test suite by a factor of
~3, but seems to be buggy and fragile and may be reverted in the
future.
Share and enjoy,
