hi everyone; slightly late report after the holidays break - hope you all had a nice time.
= development branch: (master) = + merged branch 'units-rework' - this branch fixed some improper internal usage of the Unit type and it makes changing the internal implementation of a ClutterUnit safe + merged branch 'text-actor' - the 'text-actor' branch contained the ClutterText actor, a replacement of both ClutterLabel and ClutterEntry; ClutterText is a drop-in replacement for everything that ClutterLabel and ClutterEntry currently provide -- plus multi-line editing and selection. - some bugs are still present, especially with selection handling and key navigation + merged branch 'animation-improvements' - this branch included improvements to the new implicit animation API as discussed in bug 1014, including setting custom progress functions for GTypes and overriding the animation progress by using a new, ClutterAnimatable interface + merged branch 'multiple-texture-rectangle' - this branch contained new API that allowed uploading multiple texture rectangles in one operation; this should speed up text rendering on GL by a factor of 2x-2.5x by uploading multiple glyphs at the same time (see bug 1289) + fix for a race condition on X11 - Clutter called glViewport() before knowing that the Drawable had been effectively resized by X; the code has now been reworked so that glViewport() is only ncalled when a ConfigureNotify event has been called; this requires an update in the integration libraries for embedding a Stage into another toolkit. clutter-gtk HEAD has already been fixed = experimental branches = + new experimental branches for 1.0 features that are going to be merged or are being considered for merging: - 'async-textures' -- a branch for adding threaded loading of textures from disk - 'units-to-float' -- a branch changing the ClutterUnit typedef to single precision floating point - 'cogl-float' -- a branch dropping fixed point from COGL whenever it does not make sense; the fixed point types and API is still available for embedded platforms to use = stable branch: (clutter-0-8) = + backported a variant of the X11 race fix = releases = + the tentative relese plan for Clutter 1.0 is: - Clutter 0.9.0 is scheduled for the end of this week; this release will be "API slushy" (mostly frozen, except for API fixes) - Clutter 0.9.2 is scheduled for 2009-01-30; this release will be API frozen - Clutter 0.9.4 is scheduled for 2009-02-13; will be the 1.0.0-rc1 - Clutter 1.0.0 is scheduled for 2009-02-27 = bugzilla = + 118 bugs opened against Clutter core + 10 bugs with 0.8 target milestone (bugs that can, or may be fixed in 'master' and backported to the current stable branch) + 16 bugs with 1.0 target milestone (bugs that should be fixed in 'master' before 1.0.0 is released) ciao, Emmanuele. -- Emmanuele Bassi, Intel Open Source Technology Center -- To unsubscribe send a mail to clutter+unsubscr...@o-hand.com
