hi all ...
kdereview/plasma is getting full again. huzzah!
unfortunately that means i need to go through all that stuff now .. ;)
here's my thoughts on things, please comment ...
Applets
=====
incomingmsg:
-------------------
verdict: this one should go into addons when it's ready, but it's not quite
there yet...
* there are layout issues when added to the canvas (last icon pokes out below
the standard background)
* when added to the panel it doesn't re-arrange itself to fit and creates
layout havoc
* being able to activate the application by clicking on the icon would be
really neat, but not a showstopper for inclusion
leavenote
-------------
verdict: the leave note itself is ok, but the daemon is problematic?
* the daemon seems to be a kdedmodule, but is loaded in its own process
* what need is there for a daemon at all? this should go through knotify, no?
news
------
verdict: move to kdeplasma-addons (i'd like rssnow in kdebase when it's ready)
* we probably will want to note that this is an "elegant" interface, with
rssnow being "fancy" in the applet comment
paste
-------
verdict: this one is ok, but perhaps not quite ready to move yet
* when first added to the canvas it has a size issue: you can see this because
the standard background is the wrong size at first until it is resized
* doesn't work in the panel either
* extensibility should probably be worked out first, e.g. extending with
scripts, or ..?
weather_station
---------------------
verdict: move to kdeplasma-addons
* this one is really nice, imo; we could probably improve the config dialog a
bit
* when added to the panel it sizes alright .. but it looks odd. not a
showstopper for addition as it doesn't mess up the rest of the panel, but this
could probably become a PopupApplet
DataEngine
=======
exec
------
verdict: move to kdebase
rss
---
verdict: move to kdebase
* could use the same DataSource subcass pattern to get rid of some internall
complexity, but generally already nice =)
Runners
=====
katesession
----------------
verdict: move to kdeplasma-addons
recentdocuments
------------------------
verdict: move to kdebase
this one is a bit funny actually: it didn't work. it even had a "FIXME:
doesn't work" comment on the line that didn't work. heh. please make sure
things actually work before moving them to kdereview ;)
ScriptEngines
========
qedjescript
---------------
verdict: move to kdebase
there's still work to be done here, i think, such is with package installation
(i get bad packages at times) and i have to LD_PRELOAD libeet though that's
due to the qedje libs. however, it's in generally decent shape and can mature
in kdebase where more people will also be able to test it.
