Last week I worked primarily on project management. At this point, I have opening, closing, and creating new projects in the state I want them, with a New Project dialog that offers to create desired skin documents, and enables/disables options based on the selected target (i.e. it won't let you create remote WPS if you're starting a new project for a target without a remote).

I've begun working on the target DB, but it's still not completely usable. At the moment, it's both incomplete and uneditable from the user perspective. I'm going to be working immediately on allowing the user to modify, save, export and import the DB, and after that I'll work on getting a complete default DB in place. Anyone who wants to contribute to the default database is welcome to do so: it resides in /utils/themeeditor/resources/targetdb and the syntax should be obvious from the existing entries.

By the end of the week, I'd really like to get the Theme Editor into a state that we could call an official release (v0.5, perhaps, since there's no graphical editing yet), so I'd appreciate anyone who has the ability/desire to do so testing it out and letting me know if you find any bugs or usability issues. If anyone wants to volunteer to package it as a Windows installer, OSX application bundle, deb, rpm, or any other typical distribution format when the time comes, that would also be great.
