guadec 2008: I’m late, but I wanted to thank everyone in the GUADEC team for making this edition of the conference really rocking. thanks to everyone. clutter: well, after the 0.8.0 release during GUADEC things have slowed down — but just a little bit; we’re fixing bugs in trunk and preparing for a 0.8.2 release of Clutter core. …

When the World Ends
http://log.emmanuelebassi.net/archives/2008/07/when-the-world-ends/I’m delaying my sleep time further on, after two hours on IRC discussing the gtk+ 3.x issues spawned by Miguel’s blog post, because there are a few points I’d like to make. discussion: the first, and foremost, is: let’s not use blogs to discuss. …

Claudio's ChangeLog
http://www.gnome.org/~csaavedra/news.htmlchange in the way we handle recently used files is needed, or real optimizations should be done. Felix and I found some things that could be optimized during the creation of a GBookmarkFile file. We filed bugs about it (#518160, #523877), and Emmanuele has been very helpful on this, so there'll be some improvements in the saving time. Good. However, I still have the feeling that letting ~\.recently-used.xbel grow without control is very, very wrong. In my laptop, this file is about 5MB, which

This is not a GTK+ 3.0 blog post
http://flors.wordpress.com/2008/07/20/this-is-not-a-gtk-30-b...GTK+ 3.0 and actually covering a lot more, from the longest post to the shortest. If I was into film criticism I would say that the story is evolving from decadentism to apocalypticism, with elements of final time, esoterism, conspiracy, dualism and reincarnation. It’s confusing… but solvable, since confusion is just a mental state. As for the GTK+ 3.0 debate itself there is little-to-nothing I could add to

http://interstellarmedium.org/2008/07/carnival-18-july/Stormy Peters has decided this year is the year. John Palmieri explores the unlikely scenario of GNOME using Qt as its toolkit. Miguel de Icaza thinks Gtk+ 3.0 will be a disaster, Emmanuele Bassi summarises an IRC discussion concluding it’s not as bad as all that, Miguel maintains it will be a disaster for independent software vendors. Havoc Pennington is unsure if Gtk+ 2.0 is as appropriate for newer platforms as it is for the Linux desktop. Morten Welinder doesn

Gtk+ 3.0, take 2
http://tirania.org/blog/archive/2008/Jul-15.htmlEmmanuele Bassi has summarized a discussion that happened on IRC after my Gtk+ 3.0 post. His blog entry starts by saying that we should not use blogs to discuss and then goes on to discuss. I agree with the sentiment, but IRC is not a good place to do the meeting either as we do

GNOME è un terrorista islamico
http://elleuca.blogspot.com/2008/07/gnome-un-terrorista-isla...allora siete voi che non state troppo bene. Ma per piacere, niente fatwà nei miei confornti, nè indagini della DIGOS. Quei mattacchioni degli sviluppatori di GNOME, compresi i soliti italiani emigrati all'estero, sia quelli simpatici sia quelli antipatici¹, se ne stanno in quel di Istambul a farsi belli l'un l'altro con le loro presentazioncine. Update: accidenti, ho dimenticato quelli bravi, ma per fortuna quelli non sono ancora emigrati. Sarà il clima, sarà il cibo, sarà il laicismo del padre

icone bestiali!

Wormhole to Clutter 0.8
http://butterfeet.org/?p=53(i.e windows) - very much needed especially in things like the GTK+widget. Layout. 0.6 and prior Clutter only really supported fixed positioning and layout - this has been a thorn in the side of poor little Italian ‘code is fashion’ designer Ebassi but liked by old school Macromedia Director casualties like myself and pippin. Now thanks to work spurred by Havoc, Lucas and Ebassi Clutter has now has some pretty advanced layouting infrastruture which should give should give the best of both these
