[Digikam-devel] Talking about the future task (later 0.9.0-final)

[Gilles Caulier]

Hi all,

i have started my first investiguations about the 2 next major jobs to do 
later 0.9.0 final release : 

- Qt4.0/KDE 4.0 port
- CMake port.

The first one is not very complicated. We just need to use the new API. To 
have a look into Qt 4.0 and digikam source code, i think it's a long but 
trivial task.

The question in suspend is : when we will port digikam to Qt 4.0, 
DigikamImagePlugins, kipi-plugins, and libkipi need to be port at the same 
time ?

The second task is more complicated, because this require than all extragear 
applications migrate at the same time. Right? If yes, a solution is to use a 
branch instead trunk. What do you think about ?

Others question is : both jobs must be done at the same time or can be 
separate ?

Note : I think that Qt 4.0 port must be done before to add new features in 
digiKam (new DB interface for example). 

Comments are welcome.

Gilles
