Hi all,
Just a short mail announcing big news.
First, our new fantastic website: http://rekonq.kde.org is growing every time I
go there checking the news :)
No, it's not yet our official site, but it will be as soon as it will be ready.
Second, the move from Gitorious to KDE git platform will start tomorrow. As
first step, I will clean out the kde-developers group from Gitorious and ask
kde sysadmins to copy
rekonq git repo to git.kde.org. I'd like to taste some days the waters before
really starting using it. And I will probably ask help from some of you
(Pano?). I wanna clearly
understand before starting using it WHERE every developer can have its git
clone, in WHAT WAY the merge request feature has been implemented, how it will
be simple
working from the outside for people that like doing it and so on.
So, in the while, development will continue on Gitorious and git.kde.org/rekonq
will be just a master clone. But I assume that this period will be not more
than one month.
After that, I'll try to propose 2 or 3 profiles for people to contribute (eg:
kde-developers, do this way. External developers, do this other way, and so
on..). I'll update you on
things happening directly here.
Third, main argument of the mail, the rekonq 0.6.1 release. It's our first
bugfix release and it will be probably the one shipped in the distros having
rekonq in their packages.
The bugfix list from the 0.6.0 code lists:
- Mem leak fixed in the bar(s)
- Bookmarklets support
- No more focus stealing on external url calls (discussed with kwin developers)
- Chinese sites (right) encoding
- OpenSearch suggestions localized
- Fixed urlbar crash in disconnected mode
I don't know if this will be the last of the 0.6 series. I'm just sure we'll
not ship regular releases. We'll see if some important bugfix will come out.
Last, development in master will restart (at least from my side..). Lionel is
working on opensearch suggestions, while I'm playing with an idea I have from
long time.
I'm basically trying to move DockWidget (the inspector & analyzer panel) inside
the webtab. letting each tab having its own panel (as it is natural for
inspector & analyzer).
In my first effort, I tried using a QMainWindow embedded inside the tab (you
can see it in the PANELS branch). Everything seems working but the fullscreen
mode. Going
fullscreen lets X happily crash :(
Further more, I'll work on improving the "private browsing" mode, cloning the
same one on firefox or chrome. The other time will be spent improving the
autotests and
starting a sort of autobuild test platform. That's all from my side as my main
idea for the next release, the tabs up, has been rejected :)
Have a nice day,
Andrea,
from a more stable not yet ok kmail2.
