It's about time we did a java-gnome 4.0.14 release. If you care about API additions, etc then grab current 'mainline' and do: $ bzr diff -r tag:v.4.0.13 and of course: $ bzr log -r tag:v4.0.13.. will tell you in gory detail :) ++ Srichand has alerted us to a really hair problem to do with some Java implementations being unable to differentiate between deprecated inner interface Button.CLICKED and the replacement Button.Clicked. This is mildly extraordinary. Since these deprecations have been in place for well over a year [and with assertions enabled you can't even use the code paths in question], I'm willing to see the old code removed. The discussion just before 4.0.13 about API versions applies again, and although I was going to remove this code when we bumped to 4.1, I'm not otherwise that worried about it; no one with public code is using the old signatures and so I think we can stick with 4.0 When we decide about this I'll cut a release candidate tarball. ++ If someone wants a bit of an easy challenge, maybe they could have a go on the 'deprecated-2.16' work?

Hey all, This has been a pretty casual period, but there are a few API additions in and it's time we did a release. There's also a fix for the initialization check, and that alone makes me want to cut another tarball as soon as possible :) There are a few outstanding issues: The memory pressure thing is a looming problem, but as it is "correct" (we're not leaking) it's not super urgent. I'd like to see us address the issue, but we're first going to have to come up with a really rigorous way of *measuring* the impact; watching `gnome-system-monitor`'s Writeable Memory column while "doing stuff" with a long-running app like Quill isn't exactly repeatable or precise. The business with calling Dialog's run() in another thread blocking is annoying. There's at least a workaround strategy so it's not something we need to hold off the release for. Guillaume is hard at work on RadioMenuItem, RadioAction, RadioToolbarButton and others stuff. We've raised the prospect of changing our RadioButtonGroup into just "RadioGroup" which would be wicked cool, as having all these different -Group classes would be silly if we can at all avoid it. THIS is something I would really like to see in, so if Guillaume thinks he can work on it some more over the next few days we'll give it a shot. The only other major thing is Vreixo's events patch. That's partially merged, and the bits that are in work, but I'm not sure it does everything he needed, so he or someone will need to have a look at that if it's important. So I'll do a 4.0.15 release candidate early next week, and we'll go from there.

I uploaded a release candidate, java-gnome 4.0.17-rc1. If anyone has any comments please let me know. Meanwhile, if anyone wants to contribute something to the NEWS entry, go ahead and grab the 'website' branch... AfC Barcelona |

Just for fun, I installed JamVM and tried `./configure runtime=jamvm` followed by `make test`. It didn't do anything. Huh? (using -verbose:class -verbose:jni I see it get as far as gtk_init() then appears to almost throw a FatalError, except that no stack trace comes out) Can someone else give this a try? AfC Barcelona |

That bugs was extraordinarily serious, so as I mentioned to a few people on IRC we'll be doing a release with the fix immediately. If there's anything you want in, please speak up ASAP. And of course, if you could make sure your code is still sane... People should have a look at the RSVG stuff. I've cut 4.0.18-rc1 in case you need a tarball to test with.
