moving out: Marta has been in London a couple of times, in these two weeks; she has found a nice house in Crystal Palace, and began to buy furniture and stuff, and preparing it for us to move in. Next week, we’re both going to London and buy the …
EpS.O.B.,
—
Davyd is absolutely right: steer away from any new-ish Epson printer you see, no matter how cheap they throw it at you. When I was living with my parents, I “inherited” an old StylusColor 760 - easily the best printer I’ve ever had under Linux. When I moved in with …
Lazy loading,
—
Little post about a useful design pattern in GLib and GTK, written down after a question on the #gtk+ channel While I’m not Philip and I won’t go as far as talking about this in public, I wrote down a simple design pattern for lazy loading stuff from …
The API has landed,
—
The GtkRecent code is finally in gtk+ HEAD branch. A couple of things are still missing, mostly documentation and examples (the exact list is here, if you want to check). The code needed a year to take shape (I was beginning to mull over it a bit too much), but …
Merger,
—
Seems that I’m being syndacated… aggregated… whatever… on a Planet, so hi! I’m starting merging the GBookmarkFile parser into my local copy of GLib’s HEAD branch (the tracker bug is #327662). I’ve created a testb suite and a bunch of invalid and valid bookmark files, in …
ChangeLog,

Long time, no blog. Here’s a brief recap of what happened in the last three weeks: Matthias Clasen has began reviewing the Recent Documents code, and we are planning to get it merged beginning next week; I sent a recap to the gtk-devel mailing list, and I’ll send …
Gnome-utils 2.13.95 - “Escape Velocity”,
—
Seems like I forgot to announce the new release of gnome-utils; actually, this week-end I had a bad cold (I’m not completely cured, though), and standing in front of my laptop made my eyes sore after two or three minutes. Anyway, the last release before March 15th is out …
Gnome-utils 2.13.93 - “Asynchronous Beauty”,
—
I’ve just uploaded the new beta release for gnome-utils, code name Asynchronous Beauty. Read the announcement, download the tarball, report the bugs!
FOSDEM 2006,
—
Next week-end I’ll be in Brussels, at this year’s FOSDEM. I wasn’t sure whether I’d be able to go or not - late flight booking and I had to check at two hostels before actually getting some place to sleep. I mostly plan to attend the GNOME …
Gnome-utils 2.13.92 - Gnome-utils vs. Bugzilla,
—
This evening, before going to dinner with Marta at my parent’s, I did the 2.13.92 release of gnome-utils, codenamed Gnome-utils versus Bugzilla. Since we have approached the feature freeze, the UI freeze and now the string freeze, it’s mostly a “fix and clean up” release; a …
