Coding and hacking

Hi again!

I'm still working on the MMS support for fremantle.

As promised yesterday, I'll start cleaning up my code a bit preparing to post it here.

I've spent the past few days trying to get MMS to work on the N900.

EDIT: Seems frals has managed to beat me!

After the N900 has been announced. I was saying this to a friend of mine:

[Me] so
[Me] remember our discussion about a Linux powered phone ? ;)
[Me] sorry I convinced you that Linux on phones is a no while I knew we were doing it :)

Yup, thanks to Matan Ziv-Av who did a few improvements and fixes and uploaded him-arabic to maemo extras.

The good part is the addition of the Hebrew keymap (And a few other things).

This post has a bit of my history and emotions. It can be skipped!

The summary is: Katoob has a new maintainer.

...

Yes, a long time.

Back in 2002, Gtk 2.x was just released. Efforts were spent porting, rewriting and redesigning parts of GNOME. The aim was GNOME 2.0 and later on 2.x

OK. This is the beauty of FOSS. The project has been dead upstream for a while now. It survived until it was removed from lenny.

Now me and 2 other users decided to adapt it. port it or rewrite it in gtk2.

We are having a discussion about the whole situation.

And I thought I'll never do such things again ?
I wanted to insert a debugging statement at the beginning of each function.

It can probably be used to insert anything too.

It's dirty but it worked for me. Just keep a backup or make sure the latest code is in any RCS just in case.

This is a recommended update.

tarball, md5sum and gpg signed md5sum file
ChangeLog:
A problem that caused katoob to ignore key presses was fixed.

So, today Multi GNOME terminal has been removed from debian as part of the efforts to get rid of gtk 1.x.

I'm neither ranting nor blaming. I'm just expressing my feelings.
