You're overlooking that there are quite some incoming bugs that have no yet been categorized. Also I'd call vertical tabs and vertical titles in dockwidgets a showstopper as well. The first means you don't know where one tab starts and another ends. The second makes it impossible to read the dockwidget title. Apart from that the oxygen windeco (AFAIK) doesn't adhere to the kde color scheme completely (it ignores the titlebar color that is set). There's a bugreport for that, but I can't find it right now. And it hasn't been the default style in any of the betas KDE released, which means less testing. Oxygen should be in a releasable state right now, simply because its part of the KDE platform and as far as I can see its not. Andreas PS: The work that the two or three people working on Oxygen (especially the KStyle) managed to do in the last 3 months is amazing. I'm not saying they didn't do enough, I'm saying the time wasn't enough for the complete rewrite that had to happen. -- Everything will be just tickety-boo today. _______________________________________________ release-team mailing list [email protected] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/release-team
