PledgeBank ?
by Vincent Thomasset Feb. 25, 2007

Feb. 25, 2007

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 Feb. 25, 2007

Feb. 25, 2007

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.-

It seems that somebody is working on the port of FLTK2 to DirectFB http://www.fltk.org/newsgroups.php?gfltk.development+v:4889 I do not get to compile it, but i hope that somebody can. (It is in a very early stage yet) Nothing more, good bye. Diego.

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

Hi John, First of all, thanks for checking the project. Hero go some answers... On Wed, Jan 10, 2007 at 09:58:37PM -0800, John Gutierrez wrote: > Jorge, > > Will you site be updated anytime soon.

The Dillo project is currently frozen. I'm expecting the vacation season in Germany to end to communicate with Sebastian and update the site with an official statement of the current situation. (I've tried to reach him since late 2006 so I assume he's on holidays). The latter time was spent trying to rise funds for continuing the development with at least two people working full time on it. Funding didn't happen so I had to take a job, and as Sebastian had a job, the situation now is we're both on a spare time basis that in practice has been close to nil. OTOH, the port to FLTK2 has gone very good with no surprises and a very good transition. The problem is lack of manpower because of lack of funds. The project is frozen because it is impossible to develop a web browser (very complex task), keeping pace with the evolving technologies, by working on a spare time basis. The web site will be updated after I have a virtual meeting to discuss the points with Sebastian, or in mid February, whatever comes first. -- Cheers Jorge.-

Ok, but with FALSE (DwPage owns a button that owns the image) the button fail to draw the alt text when can not load the image and do not use width and height atributes of the html tag. Using your patch and seting the parameter to TRUE it use width, height and alt, but do not redraw alt text. Without your patch dillo segfaults if that parameter is true.
