Well, first of all, French beer isn't really bad. You can certainly get
drunk enough to fall off a sleigh if you intend to do so.

Secondly, Paris is close enough to go there by car if necessary. And in
a car there should be enough room for an amount of beer that will you
keep happy for a few days.

I have some changes to tex2lyx that are basically finished but need some 
testing that I would like to see in 1.4. They enable tex2lyx to parse 
table column definitions with b{}, p{}, m{}, <{}, *{}, @{} and !{}. 
Especially @{} and !{} are important IMO. There are still some table 
features missing, but these fixes ensure that the number of columns is 
parsed correctly. I believe that tex2lyx is then better than reLyX in 99% 
of the cases.

But the math table fixes by Martin and me are ok with you (since already 
done)? My problem is that I am not able to do "Alfredo stuff" (or at 
least it requires a lot of time to understand the concepts).

I would also like to see change tracking in LyX 1.4. Actually, this feature

I don't think we should mark fixed bugs as WONTFIX, that's just too
unclear.

But I don't know of a decent way to search for 1.4-fixed bugs that are

If this is a bug we require to be fixed in 1.4.0 then that should be

The other solution is to preset this in the preferences file, as is

The trouble is, there are three possible locations for TeX  
installations on the Mac, all of which are commonly used:  
/usr/local/teTeX/bin/powerpc-apple-darwin-current,  
/opt/local/teTeX/bin, and /sw/bin.

The alternative would be to run a configuration script on installing  
LyX/Mac, but that prevents the simple drag-and-drop installation most  
desirable for the Mac.

Problem is there are three likely paths: /sw/bin, 
/usr/local/teTeX/bin/powerpc-apple-darwin-current
and /opt/local/teTeX/bin> 

I thought of a solution where configure checks an additional list of
directories when it looks for executable. Any time an executable is
not found in the current opath but in one of those directories, it gets
added to PATH_prefix. Could also be used on other platforms.

Just want to polish, not to re-forge :-) It's mainly the bitmap generation
for equations, some tweeks to output_docbook() and improvement of
the db layout files. Maybe enable the db classes even if no sgmltools

Well, at this point we mainly look at regressions from 1.3.x to 1.4.0.
We are not searching to fix all possible LyX bugs, but definitely want
to fix new bugs.

A possibility is to search for bugs reported against 1.4.0cvs.

I think we can ship 1.4 with change tracking. The status is not worse (even a 
bit better) than the unofficial 1.3 version that has been distributed 
separately, and AFAIK people have used that for their daily work.

The most annoying bug is 1277 (the crash when pasting insets). This one was 
also present in the 1.3 patch, until Johnathan Burchill provided a fixed 
patch, which has not yet ported to HEAD and also seems to need some more 
discussion. As I understand it, a real fix would need some major rewrite.

Can't confirm that for LyX/Aqua.

If they are not marked with taget 1.4.0 then I don't see them.

When I search for open bugs with "crash" in the summary, I get:
220(relyx), 1119, 1384, 1395, 1466, 1474, 1589, 1595, 1598, 1604, 
1735, 1753, 1750(relyx), 1771, 1785, 1788.

Some of those might be gone by now, but at least 1119 and 1598(s.a.) are not.
Anyway, we should check all those and the 24 open bugs of importance and
either close or fix them before 1.4.
You may assign half a dozen to me, if you like.

Then we should work on fixing these regressions, but improving any
other feature that we have.

I'll have a look at the double click issue.

One thing I see that may need big changes is that selecting with the
mouse is terribly slow.

Also, selection by double click is broken.

We have to decide what to do about change tracking.

We do not have a working bibinset.

There are probably many other things, but that's all I remember from

Currently I have problems with crashes related to fast events
and previews/forked processes.

For example, when I start LyX, open the user guide and keep the
DOWN ley pressed, I wont reach the end of the document:

bject*, QEvent*) + 0x2fc (qt_helpers.C:205)
...

I surmise that's another Qt-multithreading related bug.
I have some local patches related to PreviewLoader and
BufferView_pimpl. If noone else can reproduce this under
LyX/Qt with preview on, I can try to reproduce it with a
vanilla cvs version.

Another impression I got is that the positioning during 
scrolling is not exact with previews on. For example, I
can scroll up in a long document until the scrollbar is
at the top, but the part of the document which is shown
isn't even near the beginning. If I click into the buffer
and use PAGEUP, I can reach the top of the docuemnt.


What about my PreviewLoader refactoring and the bitmap
production for Docbook equations? I could make a final patch
pretty fast and it mostly only affects docbook.

If you are dead against it, would it be possible to have a fast 
1.4.1 version including these patches? In my view Docbook
support is sub-standard right now.

I'd say the important ones are targeted for MILESTONE 1.4.0
(IMO, especially 1598, 1411, 1667, 1764, 1765, 1787 and the crashes with 
inInset [e.g., when the document has a caption outside a float], which is not 
yet in bugzilla). Lots of Alfredo stuff, if you ask me.

What are the main problems in CVS now?

2005-02-10 Thread Lars Gullik Bjønnes

It might be that I am a bit "out".

But I see no bug problems in CVS currently.
What must be fixed for 1.4.0?

(and bugzilla is not up to snuff...)

I'd like all code-cleanup, feature-fixing etc to stop now and go into
hard freeze and only fix regressions and crashes.
