Hello all, Time for another State of the coaster address. First off, all modules except for the following have been removed from cvs as they are no longer needed. The ones being used still are: coaster-gui -- Main coaster gui coasterarchitect -- Coaster Architect libcoaster -- Common burning capplets and settings A new module, coaster-web will be added once I finish the new website. On the note of the website, I have been working on a rewrite of the code and doing minor layout changes. I have a test version up at http://home.dersoldat.org which is currently the latest. The new site shall be released as soon as it is done or when the server transition is done. I will be moving coaster services to a new server soon. The services will include arch and web. Mail-list and bugs will be handled by gnome with arch syncing to gnome's cvs. ETA on this is unknown at the moment. On to the code. First off, debian users must update their bakery and bakery-gnomeui packages with those at http://debian.dersoldat.org. Once these packages are updated, coaster should compile. Just add these lines to your /etc/apt/sources.list: deb http://debian.dersoldat.org/unstable/ ./ deb-src http://debian.dersoldat.org/unstable/ ./ Once those lines are added, update apt and install the packages. In the coaster code, there have been a couple major changes/additions. The view is solely one and not multiple views like the older code/mockups. This will present the user with a simple and straight forward way to make a disc. After the user hits burn, coaster asks what type of disc is to be made. Drag and Drop between coaster and nautilus is also in cvs. Things that still need done include libcoaster work and then integrating that into the gui. libburn also needs to interact with coaster-gui for the functions not covered in libcoaster. Also, HIG and translation word is always a must. Once we move to gnome cvs, translations should become more of a reality. We are also always looking for input on the interface and design. Remember, we are always idle in #coaster on irc.gimp.net so come in and shout at us. Until next update, happy hacking! -- Sean Harshbarger harshy dersoldat org http://www.dersoldat.org http://coaster.sf.net Key fingerprint = 086A AA96 51DD D84D 3E64 1B26 778F 2335 C828 E736 -- Sean Harshbarger harshy dersoldat org http://www.dersoldat.org http://coaster.sf.net Key fingerprint = 086A AA96 51DD D84D 3E64 1B26 778F 2335 C828 E736
