About new cool featuer for directx, it is not even commit yet for I need more testing. then I commit some real cool stuff for dx, like new sync of dxdiagn with wine to was way out of sync. I want see it also in 0.2.9. And I want also see the new sync with wine in 0.2.9. I want see alex ws_32 code in 0.2.9 shall I go on.
As I've already said on more than one occasion, this isn't just a ploy to get a 'cool feature' into 0.2.9. It was an idea to help developers by gaining feedback in preparation for 0.3.0, as it may be that this is the next release.
DirectX has nothing to do with 0.3.0, and Alex's code is still under test. The getfirefox was a tiny little app that sits on it's own. Thus it wouldn't be decremental to overall system stability in the way DirectX or the socket library.
But we got a featuer freze for 0.2.9. and it must and shall be respekted. other wise will end up with alot of new featuer in 0.2.9. I am agains adding any new featuer for 0.2.9 it will end up with a mess. and DO NOT BREAK the relase process rule. THEY must and shall follow to 100%.
I wasn't breaking rules. The wiki clearly states :
"Any nontrivial or destabilizing modifications to the branch must be discussed on the mailing list prior to committing."
which is what I did and was hoping for some useful feedback, not someone going off on a tangent about DirectX and sockets.
Anyway, lets just forget the idea ;)
