Hi all,
I will prepare digiKam 1.0.0 release Sunday evening, if all is fine for you...
Please review bugzilla a new time to not forget something important.
For the future, i would release digiKam with a short period. One year
separate 1.0.0 and 0.10.0. It's too much.
I propose this plan :
- Merge branches which are ready to trunk. I think :
* DatabaseExt (Holger, Marcel) is fine <MySql support>.
* ModelViewPort (Johannes, Marcel) i'm not sure <AlbumFolderView Qt4 port>
* ImageEditorPort (Andi) i'm not sure <PreviewWidget Qt4 port>
- The goal is to merge new branches quickly and propose digiKam
1.1.0-beta1 in January.
- Necessary fixes to maintain quickly 1.0.0. Release 1.1.0 with a
deadline to April (i'm not take a care about distro deadline here.
Please fix me if necessary)
- Limit new features to not introduce huge regressions :
* For MySql support, as SQlite is not dropped, nothing will lost, i hope...
* For AlbumFolderView, changes are big and i'm sure that regressions
will be there. A lots of tests need to be processed to check all
features. This can take a while. I need your viewpoint there...
* For PreviewWidget, not all is done yet, but Preview mode is ported
to Qt4 properly and all work fine for me.
- About kipi-plugins, 1.0.0 will be done at the same time than digiKam
: 20 december !
- I plan also to work on handbook during Christmast. Here i'm need a
good English Guy to review my words (:=)))
- For 1.1.0, we need 2 new splashscreens. So prepare your camera...
Your viewpoints are welcome
Gilles Caulier
