[E-devel] CVS mirrors...

2006-03-16 Thread Anders Troback
Hi,

I read about all the problems with anonymous CVS on SF lately and was
thinking about a solution. This is just a tough so bare with me...

I'm a FreeBSD user and all source code for FreeBSD and all the ports are
stored in CVS servers all around the world with a mirror framework. If
it works so well in the FreeBSD wonderland why would it not work in the
land of E? Can't we setup some mirrors that checkout the code from SF?

The main idea is that all developers are working against SF. Some
develop accounts checkout the code, lets say once an hour, and
distributes the code with anonymous CVS to all the users.

A solution is already well underway.  We've got everything mirrored to
a new server and will be providing anonymous rsync access to anyone
who wishes to create a read-only repository mirror.

Yeah, the problem has been that sf doesn't support pulling the code for
a mirror.  We've managed to work around that.  But it won't be hourly,
we're shooting for twice a day at the moment.

no, but it provides a nightly tarball of the raw CVS data which should be more 
than enough ...

Oh? Have you tried to download it lately? :P

Re: [E-devel] Entrance Background Themeing

2006-03-16 Thread Ibukun Olumuyiwa
Please send patches, by all means.

(btw, glad to welcome a fellow Naija man to the E team!)


 Hiya,

 Gotten a bit freetime on my hands lately, and been trying to do
 something with it.

 Entrance has a TODO item, which mentions spliting out the Background
 Edje from the Main theme edje and i've started working on it.
 I just want to confirm no one else is working on it so we don't
 duplicate effort (and if there is, we can collaborate on that).

 Currently, I have it working on my box. I split out the background from
 the data/themes/default.edc into a data/themes/background.edc, then i
 created a new background_edje for the main evas canvas, that loads this
 background, before going ahead to load the default theme (which is now
 transparent).

 In the background theme, i set the part to be loaded to
 'entrance/background' taking a cue from E that looks for
 'desktop/background'.

 There are some things remaining before it is properly done.

 1. Background choosing scheme priorities:
 First: User Specified At command line (-b option)
 Second: Previously configured background-theme from session-config
 Third: E-theme supplied (so the theme can specify an Entrance
 background)
 Fourth: The default background theme that comes with Entrance itself.

 2. Easy configuration of this (and probably other aspects of Entrance).
 I've actually been thinking it would be nice for a Entrance Config to
 look and feel like the rest of E's configs, so i was thinking of an
 Entrance configuration module, but doing that would make entrance
 dependent on E, and users may not be able to mix and match
 Entrance/GNOME or Entrance/Fluxbox without installing E as well. Any
 ideas here?

 Anyways, i think that the background themeing can be done without a UI
 config  _ATM_.

 Also, do i begin to send in my patches so far? Or do i wait to have the
 full picture before i send the patch? I know _big_ patches are not
 really liked by anyone.

 Finally... any ideas?

 Cheers,
 Essien

2006-03-16 Thread Nathan Ingersoll
We got a message a few months back that SF had discontinued nightly
tarballs for some of the larger projects, ours included.
