| Great stuff Compiz team! lookin forward to ++ |
| Guest
| Huh? That's not what happened, XRender hasn't even been considered... Compiz++ was started to switch Compiz to C++ to give more control in plugins and make programming a lot easier.
You're stupid ;) |

| I think forking compiz to compiz++ just to add a different acceleration method is a bad idea, why not add different backends for acceleration methods in just compiz? Why fork and separate a whole codebase for just adding a small detail that is the acceleration method?
Kwin does this perfectly and they don't fork it just to add a simple thing that could be an XRender backend, or another acceleration method.
Stupid idea. |

| First off, we're going for the whole "it's just Compiz" take with 0.8.0 (though we're not really done), and second, there isn't much new: just stability and all of the stuff since 0.6.* is considered "new" because 0.7.* was a development release. |
| Guest
| this is great. Are there any screenshoots of compiz-fusion 0.8.0? |
| Guest
| hmmm interesting |
| Guest
| @Guest: The updates for ubuntu will probably be available through this repository: https://launchpad.net/~compiz/+archive/ppa |

| Not sure, should be soon though, I think we're just cleaning things up and making sure there aren't any major bugs.
Keep in mind, this is the last release of C-Compiz, so we want to make sure we don't leave it with any major bugs. |

| When will (what was know as -fusion) be released? |
| klange
| Jaunty will have 0.8.0 (probably does already for all I know - I don't really pay much attention, but I'm sure Jaunty's actual release of Compiz is newer than my own, I haven't switched over to Compiz++ yet) |
