Hello, in the past, we've written rather long emails, going through quite a lot of points, and had constructive (or less constructive) discussions but decision taking has felt difficult, and was never very clear if at all. I suggest the following to remedy to what is my feeling: 1. send one email with "Proposal: XXX" in the subject. Short email asking for _one_ decision. 2. let the discussion roll for a reasonable period of time (~ one week) and/or discussion participation. 3. present a summary with "Decision: XXX" 4. If nobody has a last complaint, document in Wiki. Decision taken! Prerequisites: A. people absent (or not reacting) accept the decision taken during their absence. B. no irreversible decisions taken in the absence of majority of stakeholders. C. avoid such decisions during holidays. D. decision can be reopened if someone (absent or not) has important reasons to do so. Nevertheless a certain quiet period should be respected (let's be sensible). E. everybody does its best to react quickly and shortly (a simple "OK with me" is good enough to know that you're OK). OK with you? :-) Thanks, Eric |

Dear Dimitri, on my box, if I start FreeMind, it automatically opens the last opened map (ok) but marks it as changed such that if I directly stop FreeMind I get asked whether or not it should be saved. The cause seems to be a DocumentChanged event from the notes editor. Could you have a quick look at it? Thanks, Chris |

1. Update from CVS, I have already changed something. 2. If it still does not help, send me your map. Dimitry |

Dear Dimitri, with the enclosed map, the bug still occurs. To reproduce, open the map, close freemind, reopen it: now the * marks that the map was changed.

Dear Dimitri, please have a look at the DeleteChildAction: if you delete a node within several siblings, the current selected doesn't move to the next sibling but sometimes to some else node. Steps to reproduce: new map, new node, new childs a,b,c and delete a now. The cursor moves to c. Perhaps this bug came in due to the view changes and you, Dimitri, can have a look at. Thanks, Chris |

Dear all, isn't it time for RC1?? Chris |
From: Dan P. <dan...@gm...> - 2007-05-28 09:23:07

Hello Chris, do we agree that RC means there are no errors known to the developers? If so, are there really no errors known to the developers? If you think the version is ready for RC, I can start heavily testing 0.9.0 beta 9a to see what issues there are; I vaguely remember there were some. I can also get myself any other version you name from CVS. Please do not take this email as a discouragement from heading to RC; I am pleased that you want to head there soon.

Hi, I would like to have the "0.9.0 beta 10" because we do still know about some bugs to be fixed. Dimitry |

Hi, as much as I would like to get the RC1 out, I agree with Dimitry, AFAIK there is still a nasty bug with encryption and Java6 (unless solved in CVS).

Dear all, recently I've introduced "tabbed mind mapping", in which all open maps are displayed in tabs. I like it, but anyway, it can be switched off in the preferences. During the development; I code formatted FreeMind.java. Sorry. Chris |

Dear Dan, the "sorry" comes from the fact, that it is more difficult to merge other (not formatted) diffs. But I can't simply reverse it, as it occured in the middle of my actions. But anyhow, we should reformat all code before publishing 0.9.0 as it deserves it. Chris Dan Polansky schrieb: > Hello Chris, > > I have little stakes at what you are doing with the code.

Hello Eric and others, I am sorry for forgetting to answer this one, as at that time I wondered whether Chris was going to answer. To the topic: I am afraid willingness to reply and notify others is more important than formal guidelines. I admit I have sometimes been guilty of forgetting to answer or not answering as the topic was out of scope, although AFAIK not too often.

Hello Chris, I have little stakes at what you are doing with the code. Still I am somehow confused about what the "sorry" means in your post. Are you sorry for what you have done? If so, then I would recommend that you just don't do it or reverse it. If not, avoiding misleading statements like "sorry" would also be an option.

Hello Chris, all right, now I understand; thank you for the explanation. Whether you want to reformat all the code is up to you. I personally would not do it, as I have a formatting style completely different from everyone else, and much more easy to read too, for me anyway.

Hi, I support the idea of reformatting the code as proposed by Chris. I would like to get some samples of the reformatted code before it is commited. Best regards, Dimitry |
