Hi all,
Tomorrow we're going to be progressing to the next phase of the release, but beforehand I want to check if anyone is doing feature development work and wish for a freeze exception.
This isn't necessary for bug fixing work - if you're just doing bugs, please keep on trucking.
Also, this is not for *new* features - if you are starting on any new ideas (even if they're just enhancements to existing features), PLEASE do this work on a branch, or locally; do not commit them to SVN head.
So, if you're working on a feature, can you please tell me at this time? Also please report:
* Current status * Anticipated date of completion * Issues that must be solved before release
I'll assemble these exception requests into a list, so as people watch the SVN traffic and see changes that are not merely bug fixes, they can use the list to see if the changes are acceptable. If you're not on the list, your changes will risk being backed out.
I don't anticipate rejecting any exception requests, although if the anticipated date is too far out, or the list of issues is lengthy, we may need to pow wow on how we can put additional focus on getting the thing ready in time.
Bryce

Angled guidelines.
* current status: setting them in XML works, snapping works, the underlying code is completely in angled guideline terms. However, there is no UI and angled guidelines are not rendered on-canvas (they are invisible).
* anticipated date of completion: this weekend?
* issues to be resolved: UI rendering (axonomgrid already has this, so not too much work)
Thanks, Johan

o- Compilation of lib2geom on OS X 10.3 (Panther). --> John Faith is working on this.
Currently there's an error which prevents us from distributing a Panther version of Inkscape. Either this can be resolved before the release, or we'll just drop support for this OS version. John should be able to elaborate on this.

Technically, the above is packaging work, so no exception is needed, but I've included an explicit exception anyway, in case the packaging work requires more extensive code changes.
Since it is packaging work, it won't be a blocking issue for us to move from Frost to Freeze.

I've included an exception for this one too, however it also probably doesn't technically need it since it sounds more like a bug and/or packaging issue. It won't be a blocker for moving into Freeze.

Hey Bryce,
That patch refactoring I've been promising is in my agenda for next week. The downside is that I'm not sure if anyone has been testing the original patch at all, so I don't know how "safe" it will be to put in the refactored patch (but I don't plan on changing functionality, just refactor and clean up etc). I'll just let you all know when it's ready and you can decide what to do with it. My feelings won't be hurt if it has to wait (timing just isn't right), though I recall bulia was hoping to get it in. Sorry it has been so delayed - MCS courses are more demanding than I was hoping ;)

Hi Gail,
Thanks for the update. I've included an exception for you for this work, and will leave it to your judgement about getting it in. It sounds like the changes are fairly modest, but I know how hard it can be to find the necessary chunk of time to set aside for it with studies and all. I'll try to assist with some testing of the patch in the coming week or so.

Hi Bruce,
I want to focus on two things: 1. win32 installer - improve the current uninstaller. Currently it bugs you for every single file that has been changed. 2. improve PDF, PS export - implement blur as bitmap - need to display an dialog and asking for several options (text to path, blur as bitmap, alpha as bitmap)
Nr. 1) I can do myself. Nr. 2) I need help. I think that two weeks from now (3rd Jan) this will be finished.
I would like to see fixed in the next release the issue with the calculation of object sizes containing blur #168349 https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/168349 .

Have code for rasterising selected objects to a gdk_pixbuf in my sandbox, hoping to use it to make create bitmap copy not need temp files when no external filter is being used (to fix https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/169108). Just struggling with base64 encoding the pixbuf to be able to inline it.

That is actually the same reason I never added "embed bitmap" to right click menus. I wasn't sure where to get a base64 routine from. Once you have this knowledge we can kill that bird too.

Hello John, I already did some base64 conversions for my office. One was based on libxmlsec functions and an other based on a simple c-implementation. I will provide you with (somewhere on inkscape helper): guchar *bin_to_base64(void *binbuffer, unsigned int binlen, unsigned int *base64len) and void *base64_to_bin(guchar *base64buffer, unsigned int base64len, unsigned int *binlen) the third parameter will be the length of the allocated buffer.
Does this sounds reasonable?

Hi Adib, Ted pointed me at some gdk routines: http://library.gnome.org/devel/glib/unstable/glib-Base64-Encoding.html but my stab at using those is crashing when I try to get the pixel data from the pixbuf to pass to it. I'm also not gonna be somewhere I can code till the new year from tomorrow.

Hi Adib,
I've got you down with exceptions for both of the above tasks.
The win32 uninstaller is technically packaging work, so is permitted to be done without an exception, but you've got one anyway. But it won't be a blocker for moving into Freeze if it takes longer than expected.
Like others that have replied, it sort of sounds like the PDF/PS work may be a bit more ambitious than there is time for. However I've included an exception for you on this anyway. That said, I would encourage you to prioritize and organize the work such that there are good stopping points in case some of the work needs to be postponed. Improving PDF/PS support is very important, however this item has a longer time estimate than the other tasks that must be completed before Freeze, so is the riskiest item, especially since you think you'll need help. If you can prioritize/organize the work to reduce it something that can be completed by yourself in a shorter timeframe, that would help a lot.
Thanks, Bryce

Thanks, I've added it to the list of milestoned patches to review.
As a general note, we've got a number of patches to review for 0.46. I hope to put some time into looking into them, but would greatly appreciate any assistance with this. We basically need to sort out which look safe to include, and which should be postponed for after 0.46, so comments/opinions on the bugs would be quite useful:
(Do an advanced search on bugs having the Inkscape 0.46 milestone, marked with "patch attached").

I got to talk with Bryce today about it, and I'll get it in. I'll be sure to include code to make it optional and preferences to turn it on and off.
I'll send an email starting a new thread when it is ready.
