Hi there, I have been writing to this list a few weeks ago and asked about whether a new tilda version could be imported into launchpad. Since then I have been playing a bit with the source code and realized that tilda was still using GTK+2 and made use of a lot of functions which were pretty outdated.
I have now ported tilda to GTK+3 and vte-2.90 and I migrated from libglade to GtkBuilder. I also fixed lots of GTK-WARNINGS and GTK-CRITICAL that were happening at runtime. So far it works pretty well and I'm planning to make it more stable and fix some remaining issues and then release it. I have two questions now. First, is there anyone who likes tilda and wants to test it a bit? You can find the source at https://github.com/lanoxx/tilda in the master branch. I would be happy to receive some feedback. The other question is: What would be required to get this into Ubuntu? Ubuntu has already a tilda project registered in launchpad but it is outdated and has been syncing from sourceforge's CVS which only has a version that is outdated for three years. Is it enough if I just create a new tag in git and update the version in configure.ac and then launchpad can pull it and package it, or are there other steps involved which I need to learn?
