actually, we showed up on irc at the stated time and waited around ... :/<br></blockquote><div>yup ... <br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">

we put together a really short list of "things to do next"; Diego, do you have<br>
that still?<br>
<br></blockquote><div>Of course !<br>Since up to now the code structure is not as good as we want, the basic idea was to build a core class that handles our UI stuff, a ProjectManager class to create/load projects and keep track of its files, and other stuffs.<br>
As soon as everything works well, first we have to provide a secure way to upload the package ( the idea is to use QCA to sign the package ); second, that is, when an user download a package from our server, we have to alert the user with one of these signals ( iirc :P ):<br>
<ul><li>Green flag: package signed by both KDE and the developer ( = completely trusted );</li><li>Blue flag: package signed by KDE, but not by the developer;</li><li>Yellow flag: package signed by the developer, but not by KDE;</li>
<li>Red flag: package is not signed ( = install it at your own risk ).</li></ul>Also, some improvements on Plasma::PackageMetadata should be done ( if there are no issues with BC ):<br><ul><li>Made method's name more coherent ( for example, if the entry we want to retrieve is "X-KDE-PluginInfo-Name" and the getter is called "PluginName()", why the setter is named "setName()" ? it should be "setPluginName()" ! );</li>
<li>extend the API in order to handle more entries ( for example, up to now there is no API call to write the "X-Plasma-MainScript" entry, so i'm forced to use QFile to open the metadata.desktop file, and then append that string manually O_o )<br>
</li></ul>Actual state of PlasMate:<br>* At present, the TimeLine is broken again because the regexp fix made @ Tokamak was wrong: in fact the regexp "^commit [0-9a-ef]+$" always returns the entire list of commits! I've adjusted it with "commit\\s[0-9a-f]{40}\\n" and now works perfectly but, since splitting a string with a regexp also removes the matched expressions, the sha1hash is not present in the resulting list so I'm waiting to write an elegant solution before committing :P<br>
* The editor works pretty good, I tried it and works perfectly.<br>* The previewer is awesome, but its possible to test it with a "fake" package and see if it load it correctly ?<br><br>Ok, i think that's all, now i want your opinion/ideas =)<br>
Have a nice day,<br><br>Cheers !!!<br>
