The pango issue won't stop Debian using Abiword and it won't stop us either.

The CUPS issue is a problem, but at least we know about it and we know that there is a patch or fix available.

I'm not going to upload the next version this weekend. It would be pointless with so little to do before Final. You'll have your "2 days".

The Deep Thought theme is central to this release. You know I can't and won't take that out at this stage. Your extra Icewm themes were not central to this release. Like the other "Bling" you have been protesting about elsewhere, they can still be added later without a problem. They are not a usability feature nor even a part of the overall look and feel. Offer a ttuuxxx Bling.pet if you like; include the Puppy-4.2 button you made for JWM, too. With only the Final release to go, I'm not making any changes that don't add significant value to the total package. Call me short-sighted if you like but there you have it.
Naa it doesn't bug me if those 2 themes stay or go, just ecomoney did post that they would be great window refugees, well the silver xp one, but I guess put them on the chopping block. New users will just have to adapt. lol

Hey whodo Joe from JWM, he just released a few newer versions, LIke 5 minutes ago and I compiled the newest one.
It has rounded corners :) and newer x - _ buttons :)
just install this over your current jwm install and restart x server.

I wish they would hack in hackedbox's windows decoractions, they had a more 3d look and were animated somewhat, still without images, just using code, but it did give a better feel to the _-x buttons.

Now letś not act in haste. This JWM is an SVN snapshot not a release. I think we best leave well enough alone until either Patriot, zigbert, HairyWill or Dougal or MU looks at it.

Is nicish though..... :)

abiword 266 ok?

#221 Post by jabu2 »

RC4
Test results on
Fujitsu lifebook s2200 intel r centrino 1.5 Ghz 1 G ram
live-CD frugal

my abiword 266 does not crash when inserting symbol fonts
have tried with about 6 fonts and many symbols, from the pull down list
All seem to work perfectly - correct symbols inserted, (either by clicking on large size symbol shown in dialog or by pressing insert button, then close button) and no crashes

I do (as posted before when testing rc3) have pwidgets turned all off, and using standard beach wallpaper. Have not fiddled with any bling-type stuff, but have moved icons around to suit on desktop.
also running Kompozer and Firefox (previously petted) so far with no problems

rc4 working well otherwise, with wireless connection. rc4 loads in under 1min (enter to reduce the 8 sec wait)

I have no idea why my abiword works, but it does.

Well micko we have 2 days until WhoDo does the final, so lets test this puppy out and then we'll leave it up to WhoDo to make his call, looks like a keeper to me, When joe makes something usually its really stable. When I tried compiling Patriots version yesterday, I had a few missing dependencies when I compiled Joe's version today it went perfect, and needed nothing. I just wanted to hack in 24x24 icons, but I haven't figured that one out yet. Soon so very soon, lol

Tell you the truth trio and micko I like this version a lot:) Hope it runs smooth, would be nice to have it included. But we need to test it a lot, I'll use if for now on, until the final, and report any errors if any. Then its WhoDo's call.
