[E-devel] CVS mirrors...
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. \\troback -- Microsoft is not the answer. Microsoft is the question.

We've managed to work around that. But it won't be hourly, we're shooting for twice a day at the moment.

Re: [E-devel] Entrance Background Themeing
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?

Re: [E-devel] CVS mirrors...
We got a message a few months back that SF had discontinued nightly tarballs for some of the larger projects, ours included.
