is 0.98 available for windows? Stephen G. Pauker, MD, MACP, FACC, ABMH Professor of Medicine and Psychiatry =========================== Please note new email address; spauker tuftsmedicalcenter org =========================== ________________________________ From: dia-list-bounces gnome org on behalf of Hans Breuer Sent: Sat 11/6/2010 9:33 AM To: dia-list Subject: Pending patches for Dia 0.98 ? Recently there are increasing requests on- and off-list regarding features already available in the development version of Dia [1]. Usually it is a good sign for the necessity of a new release, if already implemented features are requested. Now there are only few (critical) bugs fixed or open for 0.98 [2] and the number of new features is also quite concise [3], although one of them was requested since at least 2001. [4] Maybe you want to extend one of the lists, by working on some unfinished patches, like: * Adding transparency to colors https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=591525 * Connections spanning layers can not be serialized https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=600571 * Editing test in Antialias mode (with cairo renderer) https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=576548 Of course there are other areas which would benefit from some patches, e.g.: * better integration of dialogs (layer, diagram tree) with the integrated UI mode * replacing more deprecated widgets * an update to the VDX plug-in ? * ... Please note, that this is *not* a call for features you want to have implemented [5], but a call for contributions to the next Dia version. Even if you have no programming skills, there is also help appreciated for updating documentation, triaging existing bugs [6] or reporting yet unknown ones [7]. If you never compiled Dia yourself, you might want to give Steffen's Dia Development (and Testing) Virtual Machine a try [8].
