Tomboy 0.7.3 (development release)

GNOME 3620 Published by Philipp Esselbach 0

Tomboy 0.7.3 (development release) has been released:

This email is to announce Tomboy 0.7.3, the fourth development release of the 0.7.x series leading up to 0.8.0. Like usual, please be aware that running the development series code is considered living on the edge (please make regular backup copies of your notes).

This release is the first one that contains the new synchronization code. It's really intended at this point for more advanced users. We'd love to hear any feedback you might have on it. We've still got to write up some help documentation for it, but otherwise, it should be functional. Good work Sandy in fixing and merging this all back into trunk!

GNOME 3620 Published by Philipp Esselbach 0

Rarian 0.5.4 has been released:

Hot on the heals of rarian 0.5.2, rarian 0.5.4 has just been released.

This is a bug fix release for several serious bugs that were discovered.

Changes
-------
* Fix README to not display version stuff
* Write the rarian-update-mtimes file to $statedir
- Fixes FHS compliance
* Remove some uneccessary memory allocations (Jens Granseuer)
* Fix infinite loop bug in update script --help
* Store configure.ac in SVN as executable
* Fix install when no prefix is specified (as autofoo insists on
specifying to prefix variable as NONE instead of not defining it)
* Reenable the rebuild script and fix it when the mtimes file
doesn't exist

gtkmm 2.11.6 and glibmm 2.13.9

GNOME 3620 Published by Philipp Esselbach 0

gtkmm 2.11.6 and glibmm 2.13.9 has been released:

gtkmm 2.11 wraps new API in GTK+ 2.11, and will become stable gtkmm 2.12 when GTK+ becomes GTK+ 2.12. It will be API/ABI-compatibile with gtkmm 2.10. 2.8, 2.6 and 2.4. It is a version of the gtkmm-2.4 API.

The API is now frozen. Only minor API changes will be made before the gtkmm 2.12.0 release, with permission from the GNOME release-team.

gtkmm stays in-sync with GTK+ by following the official GNOME release schedule:
http://www.gnome.org/start/unstable/

Bindings for the rest of the GNOME Platform are also available, and are also API-stable.

gnome-applets 2.19.0

GNOME 3620 Published by Philipp Esselbach 0

I have just made a release of gnome-applets for the 2.19 unstable series. The fixes are almost all either bug fixes or updates to newer GTK APIs. There are no new features.

It can be retrieved from:

http://download.gnome.org/sources/gnome-applets/2.19/

and the usual mirrors.

Note that 'make distcheck' does not succeed with this release. It is my estimation that the issue is minor and it is more important to get a release out than to fix the issue immediately. Expect a 2.19.0.1 release once the problem is fixed.

kiwi 1.9.16

GNOME 3620 Published by Philipp Esselbach 0

Kiwi is a PyGTK framework for building graphical applications loosely based on MVC Model-View-Controller (MVC) and Allen Holub's Visual proxy [1]. Think of Kiwi as a high-level, object-oriented layer built on PyGTK. Its design is based on real-world experience using PyGTK to develop large desktop applications, which use many concepts common to most graphical applications: multiple windows and dialogs, forms, data persistence, lists and high-level classes that support domain objects directly.
