Hello world!
Let’s see what happened in Haiku this month. This report covers hrevs 50928 to 50988.
waddlsplash worked on enabling real subpixel rendering in Haiku. This used to be protected by Microsoft patents, but they are all expired or will expire really soon. So, it is time to start experimenting with this and getting ready for enabling it.
waddlesplash also reworked the JSON API, and fixed several bugs found by the “JSON Minefield” tests.
Hello world!
Let’s see how 2017 goes in Haiku. This report covers hrev50830-hrev50928 (almost 100 or about 3 pushes per day).
Happy new year everyone!
Here is the last report for commits in the year 2016. It covers hrev50718-hrev50829.
Hi there!
The autumn season is here, and the winter is coming soon. For Haiku this means
several things. In particular, this month there was the Capitole du Libre with
two talks about Haiku (you can read more about that in mmu_man’s short report),
and also the start of the Google Code-In, with the first students claiming their
tasks yesterday.
Anyway, let’s have a look at what’s cooking in the source tree. This report covers
hrev50665-50717.
Hey there!
Life continues in Haiku, with bugfixes and slowly getting prepared for the beta release. Not much in terms of new and exciting features, but Haiku is getting more stable and the bugs slowly fade away.
In terms of Haiku commits, this report covers hrevs 50577 to 50664.
Hey there, time for a report! (I’m really out of ideas for taglines. Any suggestions?)
This report covers hrev50529-hrev50576
Hello there, it’s time for the monthly activity report again!
This report covers hrev50456-hrev50528
Video drivers
The work on the intel_extreme driver continues. In the previous month there was a large refactor, merging an old branch originally started by mmlr. kallisti5 updated it and tested it on the early intel models (everything up to SandyBridge).
Hey there!
Here comes the activity report for July of 2016. It covers hrev50388-hrev50455
Hey there,
Finally the reports are back to normal monthly schedule!
The summer is coming, which in my case means a little more free time for Haiku hacking. Anyway, on to the interesting facts. This report covers hrev50367-hrev50387 (yes, only 20 revisions this month, but some of them are large-ish with several commits from Barrett).
Hi there! Once again with about a month of delay, here comes the activity report.
This report covers the range hrev50117-hrev50336.
Command line apps
AGMS contributed some fixes to the "mail" command line app which can be now be used easily to send automated messages from a script. This is an useful tool to have in automated tasks to post status report, errors, etc.
Graphics
Rudolfc fixed some issues with non-32 bit video modes. If you are still using Haiku in 256 colors, it is now possible to have video overlays on that.
