Hi all,

There are a lot of good patches all around improving or adding
features to viking. But currently, I want to release a stable 1.0
before we merge these patches. Before releasing 1.0, there are some
features I want to check.

The first one is auto-refresh feature.

This feature, based on if-modified HTTP header, is quite old now. It
was introduced for OpenStreetMap servers. Since we added this feature,
Mapnik servers evolved to use an other system: Etag HTTP header. Some
patches for this are pending on the Jocelyn's Git repo.

Can tester give an eye on this and return feedback on this list, please?
I think it could be usefull to integrate this feature as it fixes the
auto-refresh feature for OSM server.

The other one is the exit feature.

Currently, Ctrl-W and Ctrl-Q have strange behaviour. This is mainly
because viking is (still) not able to decided if document worth a save
or not. We already discuss about this, but it seems that nobody find
time to address this issue.

Someone interested? Or should I just ignore this?


Please, help me to close these two issue and I promise to release the
most-expected 1.0 release in following weeks. And then, we will
integrate all fantastic and waiting patches.

PS: if you have other really important change, just refresh my mind, please.
