Hi all, Here's another update on the 1.3 bugs that are considered as blockers for 2.0 prereleases (the list in its current state is available here http://bugzilla.gnome.org/buglist.cgi?product=GIMP&bug_status=UNCONFIRMED&bug_status=NEW&bug_status=ASSIGNED&bug_status=NEEDINFO&bug_status=REOPENED&target_milestone=1.3.x&cmdtype=doit&order=%27Importance%27&form_name=query). I have split them up a little and added a wee comment on the state of play. There are 11 bugs, and of those 5 have an owner actively working on them. That means there are 6 bugs up for grabs, requiring your input and help. BUGS REQUIRING INPUT ==================== 78064 Entering large dimensions in Scale Image causes fatal error http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=78064 There has been some discussion on this bug. Personally, I think checking the new image size against the large image size set in the preferences, and giving a warning if it exceeds it, would be sufficient, but since this crashes the gimp if it happens, that behaviour is probably wrong. Comments needed, and I think that this would be fairly easy to fix so that at least it's not a crasher. 125141 Deprecate libgimpmisc http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=125141 As Sven said, a similar operation has been done for libgck earlier in the release cycle. There is very little to be done here except clean-up. Once all the useful functions are moved away from libgimpmisc*, this will be a tiny bug to close. Comments and coders needed. 58507 Translators should mentioned somewhere (maybe in help->about like in nautilus) http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=58507 If someone (nomis?) is working on this, please say so on the bug report please. If not, ideas on what the new about dialog should look like/do can be added to this report. 116606 gradients not saved until quit http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=116606 gimp_data_editor_save_clicked() and gimp_data_editor_revert_clicked() in app/gui/gimpdataeditor.c need non-default implementations. This should be a fairly small job, but it needs doing. Volunteers please add a comment, and reply to the list. 125142 Make libgimp 64 bit clean http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=125142 It would be helpful to have some comments about what exactly needs to be done for this bug. I believe yosh had some ideas - yosh? 118547 Convert Text Layer To Pixels / Render Text Layer http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=118547 This might be a small job, perhaps someone would like to take a look at it to give Sven more time to work on the harder problems in the text tool. Volunteers? Bugs in stage of completion with owners ======================================= 66367 Improved animoptimize for RLE or LZW compression http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=66367 Raphael is working on this, and will hopefully commit something this weekend. 113033 Thumbnail PDB API for Plug-Ins http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=113033 Sven is doing this, and will commit something soon. 125144 Text transforms http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=125144 122707 Text: can't make smaller boundary size of block http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=122707 Sven is working on these. 125143 gimp_dialog_new () implementation http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=125143 mitch is doing this, and will have something this weekend. Cheers, Dave. -- David Neary, Lyon, France E-Mail: bolsh@xxxxxxxx
