We seem to be deep in the phase nr 1 
(http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/~checkout~/pgserver/log/pascal-todo.txt?content-type=text/plain&cvsroot=pgui).

I wanted some feedback on my suggestion about resource allocation; to me, phase 1 was 
consisting essentially of answers to questions. Instead, there were some points 
solved, some other half solved, some left w/o answer...

Well... Alright. But I need to know exactly the status of the project, and precise 
answers to the questions below.

_______________________________________________

A01: Theme refresh bug
Micah, can you correct it this week or shall we go with this bug in the pre-release ? 
(if unsure, say no. I need to know)

A02: Screen rotation
Seems to be half finished. Blits not yet working.
Micah:
- what about the client request to do the switching ?
- Do the input drivers also need to be notified, or does
  the server swap x/y ?
- What will be done (for sure) for the pre-release ? 

A03: Depth switching
Postponed, unless other A points completely finished.

A04: Getting abs position
100% finished and tested. Micah, can you confirm this ?

I'd like to do the pre-release by end of this week, and the release by end of this 
month.

Let's focus on the pre-release.

This pre-release is only to have a global well-known state of the project at a given 
date, so that we can tag the whole project. From then, we'll be able to continue the 
works, but also roll-back temporarily several parts of the project if necessary. Never 
mind if there are still old known bugs (better than new unknown ones), as far as the 
system is predictable. This is vital for us since our marketing guys will go on tour 
with a demo relatively soon, so I'd prefer to do multiple small steps until then.

Blocking points are A02 and especially A01. Well, since A02 is on its way, it should 
reach a stable state for the pre-release.

Last question: Micah, do you have an up-to-date list of annoying other bugs or missing 
things I should be aware of ?

Okay, things go just smoothly, actually. I just prefer no hurry but a good 
communication between all of us.

Last note: I recently discovered Micah's log (that's cool), and from now on, I'll be 
logging my checkins in my one too ('pgserver/log/pascal-log.txt' which has a link on 
the home page http://pgui.sourceforge.net/). I'm using the changelog format to 
summarize not only the actions done, but also the files involved. Micah, could you 
please create a similar link for Philippe ? thanks.

Thank you everybody for the good work,

Pascal
