Hi,
I just wanted to keep everyone posted: The CVS has been tagged
for the 1.92 release. Please note that we now have a
COMPLETE FEATURE FREEZE
in effect! This means that the API, messages and feature set
will not be changed until KDE 2.0 is released. The only
changes to the CVS that are now allowed are:
a) bug fixes, preferrably with reference to the bug #
b) updates to the translations
c) updates to the documentation
Everything else can only be done when a general consensus has
been reached on the kde-devel mailinglist!
Please note that some packages have been removed from 1.92,
although they are still in the CVS. These applications will
not be part of the 2.0 release:
kdemultimedia: - kautorun
kdegraphics: - kfax
- kcoloredit
- kpaint
- kiconedit
- katalog
kdebase: - kikbd
kdenetwork: - kfinger
- kbiff
koffice: - kimageshop
- graphite
- kformula
These reasons range from 'obsolote' over 'broken' to 'not yet
finished'. I did not have feedback for the kdeutils, kdepim
and kdeadmin modules, so some more applications might be
removed before 2.0.
This is necessary so that the translator and doc writers don't
spend their valuable time on these applications.
Thanks for all the hard work that went into the CVS in the
last weeks!
Bye,
Matthias.
