SoC progress report: July 03, 2007

Hi!

This week I've played with a lot of stuff, and reached a state where my "patch" was so big that I lost control over it. Before continuing, I'll commit patches to the newly-created metacity branch called 'multiple_pointer_x'. I've already created the branch, and I'm almost ready to commit the first part, but I'm having a little problem (bug) so I'll wait until tomorrow.

While playing, I also had to make a little modification in gdk. I've created a little gtk+ patch, but it will only be needed when I commit the multiple foci stuff. I'll probably have to make this patch bigger as I develop more stuff. If someone wants to see it, just take a look at [0].

I've also created a howto that teaches how to download and compile mpx, gtk+ and metacity. The howto will be available in my project page, which wasn't created yet. I plan to create it tomorrow too (after the commit).

This week, I plan to commit the changes I did in an "organized way", so I can continue developing without breaking the stuff I already did. I'll also create the project page and the howto, so everyone will be able to use my branch.

Thanks,
Paulo.
