If the plan is a general switchover to C++, I'll have to back out. I don't do C++, Java, etc. for free -- it's just not worth the aggravation. Hell, I've just discovered that FLTK2 (r5642) won't even build with my current compiler/linker combination. Sorry, life's too short for this kind of crap.

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

From your error, it _looks_ like you need glib-devel and gtk-devel packages are not installed. Good luck, Livio

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.-

Actually, I volunteered some time back and never got a response. I haven't fiddled with FLTK development, but I reckon I could pick it up in a week or so.

Raising some funds, and to create awareness of what the current status of the Dillo project is, looks like a good idea. It would be important to let the readers know that we seek funds to be able to quit our jobs and to dedicate full time to work on Dillo for at least a year (when hopefully we could have secured some enterprise funding to continue). This is simply a too fast a moving target for two developers to chase working after hours. Another important point is that we're not working with GTK1 anymore, but with FLTK2 (antialiasing, UTF-8, statical linking in 700KB, less dependencies, etc). We have an advanced prototype. This is important for potential developers. We're looking for interested developers to work on Dillo. This is also key to the success of the project. This is the kind of developer that not only sends patches but that contributes to the core of it. Sometime ago I asked in this list for interested developers and got only one answer for a "patch-developer" so to speak. > 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 ? I like FOSDEM!, was once there, and there're lots of different people attending it. From technical to management. If you can pass the above ideas (more or less deatiled in my previous posts too) with a broad target scope, it could certainly help the project, and we'd appreciate that. -- Cheers Jorge.- PS: you can also get some material from the articles posted in linuxdevices (look in www.dillo.org/press.html)

PledgeBank ?

by Vincent Thomasset

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

I see a lot of comments to the article like "gtk1 ? no i am > not interested in joining the project.". It would be more interesting to find comments like: "Hmmm, a new Dillo, with FLTK2, I'm interested in joining the project!" If that happens don't hesitate to contact me. -- Cheers Jorge.-
