BrainTop / News: Recent posts

Finally, the FileList is available: with this fundamental component (under development) is possible the abstraction of "activities", filesystem elements (and more) grouped to be easily and rapidly accessibly. More new features implemented.

The more interesting feature is the new taskbar, that permit (finally!) to use BrainTop as a normal window manager. Please check out the new developer's documentation at website.

Rich changelog: finally, the first experimental version of On-Mouse Shell is implemented, and the activities interface is almost ready. All package have been updated to the latest version of XFCE and SQLite libraries.

Added some "goodies" to the release: a configuration panel for desktop menu and a special graphical theme. Some bugfixes also, of course...

Released the first prototype for 0.1 series: this application born from a fork of the xfce window manager and sign a new dawn for this project.

With big delay, 0.0.5 is out: some experimental code, some adjustment to side applets and workspaces, introduction of on-mouse shell and circular contestual menu.

Development of side applets is begin. View the website for more informations about these elements.

Some new features: Neuron, support for internationalization, experimental "side applets"... We are working for you :-)

The BrainTop Development Team have began to use the CVS system in SourceForge: from now is possible to get all recent files in development from the SourceForge's page of the project. Enjoy!

As promited, after about two weeks from 0.0.1, now the 0.0.2 release for the BrainTop Project. It includes some of the basilar functions used to manage the database (used as support) and an example of the future editor used to customize the system. Enjoy :-)

In last days was actived the mailing list for developers (and collaborators) of the BrainTop Project: braintop-devel@lists.sourceforge.net .
The list is mainly for italian speakers, but also messages in english language are welcome.
Actually there are three subscribers, but I hope to see grow this community as soon as possible.
Enjoy!

In this fase of development, I think that it's better to release sources "early and often": every two weeks (except particular cases) I will release all codes I write, so to update often all those who want to collaborate with the project.
0.0.0 series is a test release, so to define a way to follow for the future: all contributes are welcome!

After a month from 0.1, there is 0.2. A new feature (the graphic editor) and some change in the basic data structures.
