Hi there!
Since some days ago there's lots of movement in the SHR mailing lists, and I'd say this is nice, really nice. There's lots of users and devs speaking about SHR future, giving ideas and making plans, and the most important thing: most of them seem eager to help! But in order to get all this help, we need first to make it easier for supporters to collaborate. Some of this work is already done, and some is work in progress or will be (hopefully) started soon, in the next few days:
We have got some nice improvements too, for instance:
And finally, some spoiler of what's coming in next days. captainigloo is working in a replacement for illume-home called elfe, which will give us much more eye-candy and will have E-modules support. You can see a video of an old version of it here.
Since some days ago there's lots of movement in the SHR mailing lists, and I'd say this is nice, really nice. There's lots of users and devs speaking about SHR future, giving ideas and making plans, and the most important thing: most of them seem eager to help! But in order to get all this help, we need first to make it easier for supporters to collaborate. Some of this work is already done, and some is work in progress or will be (hopefully) started soon, in the next few days:
- First of all, elisa42, GNUtoo and mrmoku have been cleaning the bugtracker and they are fixing long-standing bugs.
- We are still sorting out the better way to do it, but we will probably add JaMa's OE chroot environment into the SHR Makefile, so people have less troubles building their own apps and images using OE.
We have got some nice improvements too, for instance:
- GNUtoo has been looking at om-gta02 kernel config and has enabled some options which hopefully will bring us some speedup.
- [Rui] has been improving the shr_elm_sofktey module. It's buttons are now filling the blank space around them, and has added a new button which shows a list of the applications running.
- SHR testing RC3 is out. It has new stable EFL version 1.0.0 and newer kernel 2.6.34.8.
- Mickey Lauer is rewriting the N900 modem handling part, with more parts being in vala.
And finally, some spoiler of what's coming in next days. captainigloo is working in a replacement for illume-home called elfe, which will give us much more eye-candy and will have E-modules support. You can see a video of an old version of it here.
Your points are okay, they could even help relax like Xanax. It's like you read the story and forget regarding all the hardships
