Akunambol 0.2.1

Hi,

Akunambol 0.2.1 is out! This is a minor release, but one that adds nonetheless a lot of polishing over what was version 0.2. Here’s a very quick list of changes:

  • Fixed 5 out of 6 reported bugs, including all the crashers, and one wish. There is only one minor thing remaining which will be addressed by the plugin infrastructure.
  • Implemented a likeback system to gather feedback (the one you see on KMess or Amarok). I hope that it will be useful. :)
  • We now have a shiny (well, not too shiny, but…) icon used everywhere, and there’s more integration with the KDE workspace in general.
  • Fixed all the licensing issues; there is already an AUR package (even if it’s still 0.2 for now) for Arch Linux users, and a PPA for *ubuntu users is also arriving. If you can make packages for your distro, don’t hesitate to contact me!

Get it while it’s hot, compile it, and try it out: it should be a big improvement over version 0.2.

By the way, since I’ve been asked a couple of times, I’d like to point out that the published funambol snapshot (on the akunambol website) is a prerelease of version 9. In spite of the fact that it’s a prerelease, it’s infact very stable – just – keep that in mind when doing packages, if you want to handle upgrades gracefully. =)
