[opensuse-project] [GSOC 2014][MATE]Final Weekly Report : Epub support in Atril
Hi community, So today is that day when the official GSoC coding period comes to a close. Here is the final status of the project. You can read epubs with Atril. Search through epubs. Thumbnails. Dual library support at buildtime(both GTK2 and GTK3) A night reading mode(inverted colors) Conforms to both epub2 and epub3 standards (to an extent) and the usual. I am happy with the way the project turned out. Some bugs such as memory leaks at some places etc. remain, but those can be taken care of easily in the upcoming days, once the packaging problems of Gentoo are taken care of, the patch will most likely be upstreamed, and Epub support available with MATE-1.10 . For the last few days, I was working on Adding Mathjax support, but the terrible(sorry) tool that is GNU automake, I don't think that would be ready before 13:00 PST today (the 18th), so that would be a post-GSoC addition. Thanks for the opportunity to work as a GSoC student for MATE and openSUSE, and kickstarting my open source journey. If anybody's interested, I'll be writing a blog post, sort of a full lookback of the project, available at my blog rootavish(dot)github(dot)io. As usual the code is available at https://github.com/rootavish/atril.git And you can follow this discussion to see when the commits are merged with the repo: https://github.com/mate-desktop/atril/pull/84 Regards and thanks, Avishkar Gupta -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner@opensuse.org
Hey, sorry for the influx of messages, but after poking around a bit, and going into overdrive, I did manage to add MathJax support before the end of GSoC. That now leaves us with minor refactoring and bug fixes, expect to see some changes once packaging is in order. Thanks again, Avishkar Gupta On Monday 18 August 2014 08:14 PM, avishkar-gupta wrote:
