[haiku-development] Re: Who's working Haiku's on UI/UX? (fox noodles)
Thanks for the comprehensive Adrien,
yes I'm aware that most of the time people are working for free on Haiku
etc. so do I ATM, but as u might already know and from my personal
experience it's always(I repeat always no exceptions unless you're a boss
or a best friend) hard to convince a programmer to do something that most
of the programmers don't even care about, unless it's a front-end developer
who's into modern stuff anyway. That's why I asked if someone's responsible
for UI on Haiku, cuz we won't get anywhere anytime soon if I'll have to
argue with all programmer's out there about a window shadow which is not a

Ticket #7465 ([app_server] mouse wheel doesn't work for new windows until you move the ...) closed
Categories: Development
app_server: Fixed some send fake mouse event issues.
* Activating a window never send a faked mouse message. This was
noticeable when switching windows using the keyboard; if you then
scrolled with the mouse wheel you could scroll in the previous window
still.
* Also, using MouseEventWindow() in _SendFakeMouseMoved() doesn't work
when you click the window to send it to behind: it's moved on button
press, but the mouse event window is only released on button release,
ie. too late.
* This is fixed by always using the current window under the mouse as
target for the fake event.

Hi Fox,
Welcome to the Haiku project. I saw from your post on the forum that you have
an interest in UI, excellent. I can't speak for everyone
on this subject but my impression is that most effort into Haiku UI/UX has been
to reproduce the BeOS GUI, look, feel, and intent.
With the exception of tile and stacking, there has not been a really large

I would start with posting news items with a call for help on open
source news websites (I'm thinking of the french linuxfr.org, but there
may be other similar and more global websites.
I could set up an advert on idealist (example:
) and ask readers to
contact the public Haiku-inc email.
This advertisement could then be shared around on the tech news websites.

[haiku] Re: [RFC] QA Test Management (Richie Nyhus-Smith)
Gurock Testrail is another commercial tool that is highly intuitive, has
a python api client that could be connected to buildbot's release
management system [9] and it already has great trac integration [10]. Its
website states that open source projects should fill out a form or email
them to find out how to get free licensing, however form is redirecting to
their main page.
Should I contact Gurock and see if the offer still stands ?
Cheers,

[haiku] [RFC] QA Test Management (Richie Nyhus-Smith)
Hi all,
What is everyone's thoughts on having a manual QA test management tool for
Haiku?
I think that for a project the size and scope of Haiku, there really is a
need for some type of manual test management.
I have included below an overview of test management and our possible
options.

We need a PHP developer to help us jump to Drupal 8 (or whatever PHP CMS
we pick). Catchafire can get us free help with the
strategic/preliminary work [1][2][3][4], but we will need someone to
manage and implement the change over.
I'm pretty proficient in PHP. I'm busy ATM, but I do have a copy of vmweb
to play around with and try to get working with Drupal 8. So I can handle

Although [2] [4] can be done in house, the other 2 should be done by a
