PledgeBank ?
by Vincent Thomasset 25 Feb '07

25 Feb '07

Hi Jorge, What do you think of trying to raise some funds using pledgebank ? I know this is not really the type of funding you're expecting for Dillo, but it should be interesting to see if there's a response. Considering what recently happened to the nouveau project [1] (someone raised 1300+ 10$ donations in their name), if think it could be interesting to take the chance. On a related note, the FOSDEM will be held 5 minutes away from my place, i could drop some "Fund Dillo" posters there to get some publicity. What do you think ? Cheers, Vincent

Web page update
by Jorge Arellano Cid 25 Feb '07

25 Feb '07

Hi there, As said sometime ago in this mailing list, I went to update the front page of Dillo's site to let our users know what the current status of the project is, and what we're doing/expecting. It is just a small section under the "Project Objectives". Please give it a read and send your feedback here if any. I know the "funding" link would benefit from an update, but sometime ago it was quite current and as it yielded no results, I'm not sure it to be worth the effort anymore ;-). Perhaps an alternative way could work better. -- Cheers Jorge.-

Hi Johannes and R.L, Please excuse my delay to answer. Finally I found some time to address this.

PLease let me know a rough estimate of how much time could this be. Just to have an idea of what kind of task you both can work in based on your expertise and available time. At this moment, much of Dillo is quite similar to what we had in 0.8.x series. The main differences are: - Dw was ported to C++ (some new capabilities, similar API). - HTML/text/script parser was ported to C++. - The Concomitant callback chain was redesigned for simplicity. (Now, instead of one CCC branch per task, an anhanced universal branch handles Dpi, HTML, text and images). - Bug fixes/injections ;-) A great thing is that Dw is well documented (Doxygen), it has a testbed, it's isolated from Dillo and it can be studied comfortably. OTOH, there's a lot of middle/minor work to be done to complete its implementation. If I get your time availability it would be easier to plan with Sebastian what to suggest you to work on. Thanks a lot for your commitment. May thy example be followed by the listeners! :-) -- Cheers Jorge.-

Unfortunately, this isn't very well documented, but you actually need FLTK 2, to allow the download DPI to work. If I remember correctly (Jorge can correct me if I'm wrong), compiling the download DPI is optional (--disable-dlgui, I think, was the configure option). So, you can either forget about the download DPI, find RPMs for FLTK2 (both library and -devel), or build/install FLTK2 yourself. Now, don't you just _love_ recursive build dependences ;P Good luck, Livio
