Bonjour Hubert I read on planet.abisource.com (June 26, 2009) that you implemented the JPEG support for abiword 2.7.6. This feature would be very useful for OLPC XO laptops, but the newest release (8.2.1, build 802) for XOs includes still abiword 2.6.4. Is it possible to make a small and low risk JPEG-patch for abiword 2.6.4 so it could be included in release 8.2.2?
Work for a Fedora 11 based release (8.2.1 and 8.2.2 are based on Fedora 9) is in progress. This release includes abiword 2.8.1, but it won't be stable enough to install it on student XOs soon (I am not aware of a schedule for this release).

Only if you can get a patch (from the abiword developers I guess) that fixes the problem on 2.6.4; and the patch is reasonably small and low risk. As Ben points out, this will imply a flag-day change. For people controlling a whole deployment, this may very well be acceptable... and the 8.2.x I am working on is focussed on deployments. cheers, m -- martin.langh...@gmail.com mar...@laptop.org -- School Server Architect - ask interesting questions - don't get distracted with shiny stuff - working code first - http://wiki.laptop.org/go/User:Martinlanghoff _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
