GtkGLExt 0.3.2
Hello everyone,
GtkGLExt, OpenGL extention to GTK, version 0.3.2 have been released.
http://gtkglext.sourceforge.net/
It provides the GDK objects which support OpenGL rendering in GTK,
and gtk_widget API add-ons which extend ANY GTK+ widget to an
OpenGL-capable widget.
This release includes some minor feature enhancements.
* Internal codes have been optimized. ImplX11 and ImplWin32
codes have been modified to use the internal-specific
macros to reduce the waste function calls.
* Experimental multihead support have been implemented.
It is turned on when you compile GtkGLExt with GTK 2.1.
I think it will works, but it is not fully tested yet.
I cannot test the feature enough, because I have no multihead
environment. Can anybody help me to test the multihead feature?
Could you please try it and tell me your comments?
General Information
===================
GtkGLExt is an OpenGL extention to GTK 2.0 or later.
This package is composed of GdkGLExt library and GtkGLExt library.
GdkGLExt library includes low-level OpenGL related objects,
GdkGLConfig, GdkGLContext, GdkGLDrawable, GdkGLWindow, and so on,
which has GLX like interface. GtkGLExt library includes high-level
gtk_widget API extentions using GdkGLExt, which extend ANY GTK+ widget
to an OpenGL-capable widget.
The objects included in these libraries are implemented using C and
fully compliant with GLib's GObject and it's latest features.
The official web site is:
http://gtkglext.sourceforge.net/
The official download & development information site is:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/gtkglext/
Supported Platforms
===================
Currently GtkGLExt supports
* UNIX platforms
Tested on Linux (RedHat 7.3) and IRIX (6.5).
* Win32 platforms
Tested on Windows XP & 2000 Professional using MinGW/Cygwin
environment.
Thank you,

GNOME-PIM 1.90.2
GNOME-PIM 1.90.2
================
This is an in-development release of GNOME-PIM 2, the GNOME Personal
Information Manager for the GNOME 2 platform. GNOME-PIM includes an iCal
based calendar and a vCard based address book application.
Please note that this release is intended only for developers who want to
participate in the porting effort of GNOME-PIM, and for bold adventurers who
don't fear the unknown. It is not ready for daily use and still contains a
lot of bugs. It will eat your data, be cautious!
To Do
=====
There is still a lot of work to be done, before GNOME-PIM 2.0.0 can be
released. During the porting effort, parts of GNOME-PIM had to be
rewritten from scratch, and there are still more parts scheduled for
replacement. This is the last release that still uses libversit for
reading and writing vCards. The next release will make use of a new,
GObject-based MIME Directory/vCard library that will be much more
stable, standard-compliant, and easier-to-use than libversit.
Also, major parts still use GtkCLists, are not HIG compliant and not
accessible. The documentation is lacking, too. For a full to do list,
see the file TODO in the distribution or in the gnome-pim-2-branch of
GNOME CVS's gnome-pim module.
Unfortunately Palm Pilot support had to be dropped from the GNOME 2 port
of GNOME-PIM, but we hope to be revive it, once GNOME-Pilot (or a better
replacement) is ported to GNOME 2.
Availability
============
GNOME-PIM 1.90.2 is available at:
http://me.in-berlin.de/~jroger/gnome-pim/gnome-pim-1.90.2.tar.gz
Bugs in this release should either be reported at Buzilla with the
version set to 1.90.x or directly to gnome-pim-maint (at) gnome.org.
Patches are very welcome.

GStreamer 0.4.0
GStreamer "Desperately Seeking Sexiness" 0.4.0 released
The GStreamer team is happy to announce another developer release of the
GStreamer streaming-media framework. GStreamer 0.4.0 is available for

General
* Graphical pipeline editor (gst-editor) ported to GNOME 2.0

days)
* GConf schemas distributed for centralised sink settings
* Moved to http://bugzilla.gnome.org for bug reports. Bugzilla is more
convenient than SourceForge's system, and Gnome already has a system
running. Thanks to Gnome for the support.

Known Issues
GStreamer currently ships with two schedulers, named 'basic' and
'standard'. Basic is the one we have been shipping for a long time now
and is still the default in GStreamer 0.4.0. There are however some
limitations and threadrelated bugs in basic. These limitations are not
present in standard, but unfortunately standard does not work with i686
glibc atm due to differences in the way threads are handled compared to
other architectures including i386. We hope to get the remaining issues
in standard fixed before 0.4.1 and use that as default.
As for the bugs in basic we did not feel they warranted not releasing
0.4.0 as they are rather obscure. For instance if you are using
Rhythmbox you will need to be playing over 500 songs nonstop to trigger
it.
If you want to test the standard scheduler, run your GStreamer
application with --gst-scheduler=standard
GStreamer Homepage
More details on these features can be found on the project's website,
http://gstreamer.net/.
Support
We use http://bugzilla.gnome.org/ for bug reports and feature requests.
The "product name" is GStreamer (capital G).Please do the following
before writing a bug report :
* Run gst-feedback and attach the file "feedback" to your bug report, so
that we have some information useful in the debugging process.
Developers
GStreamer is hosted on SourceForge. All code is in CVS and can be
checked out from there.Interested developers of the core library,
plug-ins, and applications should subscribe to the gstreamer-devel
list. If there is sufficient interest we will create more lists as
necessary.
We are still looking for people with access to Solaris, HP-UX, Irix and
True64 that would be willing to try building and testing GStreamer.
Patches fixing build problems on such systems are of course also more
than welcome.
