Hey, For those of you who didn't get to meet me on irc (nakee), My name is Ely Levy I live in Jerusalem and I study for second degree in computer science. For the last few month I've been working on adding epub( http://www.idpf.org/specs.htm) support for okular. My design was to make a library (libepub) and to build a text converter based plugin that uses it.
Current status -------------------- - Viewing of most files work - Links work - All the rest of the thing inherited from text converter work Missing - QA QA QA (need a lot more files to sample). - TOC - The specs are very extensive and there are some features that are not implemented by any one yet like ecryption or the 2-3 css tags they added. The best way IMHO is to actually implement them when books that use them are out. Short term objectives ----------------------------- - Finish toc support - Get people to test the plugin on various files and report bugs (will probably only happen if it is accepted to trunk) - Do a release of libepub ( I need to do extensive code auditing to see all errors are handled correctly) - Get the plugin into kde 4.1 Long term --------------- - Stabilize libepub api - Clean up the code (maybe to move to expat instead of libxml2) - Use clit to get the plugin to open lit files as well Notes -------- - libepub is in the svn of http://sourceforge.net/projects/ebook-tools - the plugin is in the svn of the kde playground - In case it's not obvious the thing that bother me the most now is lack of user feedback and testing, suggestion are more than welcome :) RFC ;) Ely _______________________________________________ Okular-devel mailing list Okular-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/okular-devel
