Improvements to the "Patches from GIT" web page
by Michele Calgaro 30 Oct '14

30 Oct '14

The new "patches from GIT" page looks good and so does the search field at the bottom. Anyhow IMO there are still a few things to fix: 1) email addresses are shown in full, which is not that good being a page available without any login. It would be advisable to remove them, both from the committer column and the Log message column (for signed-off commits). 2) I believe the correct name of the committer column should be "Author" 3) The page still displays with problems if the width of the browser window is small enough (the blue left side menu overlaps the page contents) 4) The search field would probably be better if it was at the top, since it does not take up much page space. At the moment we need to scroll the whole page if we want to search for a particular commit 5) the 'page navigation' (the one saying 'Now viewing patches...') would be better if it had links to the next and previous adjacent pages as in most search engines (something like [1], [2], [3], .... to make it clear) 6) IMO, the name "Patches from GIT" is misleading for new users, as I already said in a previous email. Would be better to call it "GIT Commits" or "Commit history" or something with "commit" in it Hope this is useful. Cheers Michele

[cross-post] TDE website update and R14 status
by Timothy Pearson 28 Oct '14

28 Oct '14

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA224 Cross post from the users list: All, The new TDE website has been updated to incorporate feedback received from both users and developers; it is hoped that this design strikes a proper balance between aesthetics and functionality. Many thanks to the TDE Web team, especially E. Liddell, for their work on the new site! R14 Release Candidate 1 is currently being built. This process should be complete somewhere around Nov. 10 2014 barring unforeseen difficulties. RC1 will take the form of a package set for Debian/Ubuntu along with an Ubuntu LiveCD that can be used for testing. The TDE project needs your financial support! If you can, please donate towards our operating costs at https://www.trinitydesktop.org/donate.php . In particular, due to the large size of the R14 binary package set we needed to increase the available Internet bandwidth temporarily until R14 is released; this change increased TDE's operating costs substantially and has put severe strain on the project's finances. Thank you for your support!

I'm not sure I can fix it; Konqueror's broken HTML rendering is a known problem but I haven't gotten around to seeing what would be required to replace KHTML with Webkit. That process will be lengthy and won't happen for R14 in any case.

new website - patches
by Calvin Morrison 25 Oct '14

25 Oct '14

Hi guys, It would be really cool to drop a 'smart' table into the patches page, or have an alternative page that provided that support. Datatables is a great example of this. It's a pseudo excel style table, backed by some javascript. it would make it easy to search through commits, export data to excel, sort of date, etc. Just a thought, Calvin

New feature on TDE Patches page
by Timothy Pearson 24 Oct '14

24 Oct '14

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA224 All, After growing tired of the difficulty of looking up exactly what changed in the various GIT hashes being thrown around during development I added a project-wide hash lookup feature on the TDE Patches from GIT page. I have also added a direct link to each patch on cgit, though those links may take up to 24 hours to activate after a commit is pushed. Let me know what you think. I hope this helps with code auditing; suggestions are of course welcome!

TDE site glitch on iOS
by Timothy Pearson 23 Oct '14

23 Oct '14

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA224 Hi E. Liddell, Not sure if there's anything you can do about this but I was browsing the TDE site on iOS and got the attached glitch. Is there any way to force the horizontal scrollbar to show up in this case instead of overlaying the left hand menu bar on top of the text? This is one of the very few cases where horizontal scrolling is preferable to what we have now. Thanks!

Bugszilla to main TDE homepage missing link
by Michele Calgaro 22 Oct '14

22 Oct '14

From the bugszilla page it is not possible to go directly to the TDE website. A link would be good. Perhaps a solution would be to make the TDE Icon on the top left part of the banner clickable as in many other pages of the new website. Cheers Michele
