Hi,
it's been a while since the last awesome release and some "interesting" stuff
has happened. The more important stuff here IMHO is a problem with newer cmake
and the xcb-util split-up.
Awesome didn't build with cmake 2.8.4. More people will run into this problem
and we should get the fix out:
commit d2b684d4a3e11bd3b00b6a0a4abd5698419dadb0

Normalize icon path names (fixes #869).
The elements in ${icon_sources}, as returned by file(GLOB ...) contain
double slashes, could be a bug in cmake. This causes building with
cmake 2.8.4 to fail, due to dependency problems lateron.
This patch works around the issue by normalizing all path names in
${icon_sources} while appending them to ${ALL_ICONS}, thereby removing
the double slashes.
The other big thing is Arnaud's work on xcb-util. He sent a patch for porting
awesome to the new API. However, since this change isn't backwards compatible
(and there was no new awesome release in a while), I'd like to have a new
awesome release first (it already is in master since today).
Of course, there are lots of other nice features ("rules: allow defining
exceptions to a rule - except, and except_any") and fixes ("naughty: escape
title too").
What do you think? Any known issues which should be fixes first? Any last-minute
patches that should get in?
Does a next-weekend-release sound reasonable?
Cheers,
Uli
