Apertis 17.06: distribution bootstrap
by Andrew Shadura 16 Mar '17

16 Mar '17

Hello everyone, We’ve been working on branching off Apertis 17.06, and it seems it is ready now. The repositories should be already available, packages should be building, Jenkins has been updated and should be building both packages and images. Please note Apertis 17.06 is in the early development phase, and as changes land there packages may not be installable at all times. If you feel something isn’t working the way it should, don’t hesitate to speak up and report your issues. Please note master branches of Git repositories will now result in builds for/against 17.06; changes targeting 17.03 should go to 17.03 branches we have created in all repositories. -- Cheers, Andrew Shadura --- Collabora Ltd The Platinum Building St John's Innovation Park CB4 0DS, Cambridge, United Kingdom https://www.collabora.co.uk/

New Apertis 16.12 stable release available
by Emanuele Aina 16 Dec '16

16 Dec '16

Hello everyone, the new Apertis 16.12 stable release is now available! You can find the full release notes at https://wiki.apertis.org/16.12/ReleaseNotes Some highlights from this release: * Stable application bundle layout Version 1.0.0 of the Application Bundle Specification [bundle-spec] has been published, which means that the layout of bundles is now stable and that bundles that adhere to it are guaranteed to be installable on any future release of Apertis with no changes. * Web runtime The first implementation of the Web runtime specification [web-runtime] has landed in Apertis 16.12 as a technology preview. Application bundles can use the /usr/bin/bredon-0-launcher shared launcher to exclusively rely on HTML/JS/CSS for their needs while still being able to access all the native GObject-based APIs provides by Apertis through the GObject-Introspection bindings provided by Seed. * Application store client The old application store client implementation (Frome) has been refreshed to take advantage of the recent development in the finalized bundle specification, in the application manager (Canterbury) and in the application mounter (Ribchester), while preserving the same D-Bus API for applications.

Hello everyone, As described in [0], we’ve been using specially formatted commit messages for a while now to automate closing and referring issues. Please try to follow the updated guidelines when submitting your contributions. To summarise the guidelines, Apertis issues referred in the commit messages are transferred into the package’s changelog when it’s updated using `gbp dch` tool. When the package is uploaded, apertis-qa-bot will automatically update the status of the issues in Phabricator as the package is built and installed into the images.

New Apertis 16.09 stable release available
by Emanuele Aina 07 Oct '16

07 Oct '16

Hello everyone, the new Apertis 16.09 stable release is now available! You can find the full release notes at https://wiki.apertis.org/16.09/ReleaseNotes Some highlights from this release: * Routing information sharing for navigation services Traprain is a new library introduced in Apertis 16.09 allowing navigation services to share routing information with third party applications. It enables applications to get the available routes to reach one or more destinations: for instance, with Traprain an application can request the routes to the nearby restaurants and sort them by estimated arrival time form the current location to help choosing the one to book. * Hardware accelerated support for Web contents Apertis 16.09 ships with readily available support for accelerating Web contents (CSS3 transforms and animations, WebGL scenes) using the GPU efficiently under Wayland. This means that you can navigate the modern Web even with limited CPU resources and run WebGL scenes fully unleashing the power of your GPU. Most of this work has been submitted upstream and we plan to submit the remaining optimizations soon. * Canterbury API for launching preferences A new API (org.apertis.Canterbury.AppDbHandler.LaunchAppPreferences) has been implemented to allow applications to launch their preferences in mildenhall-settings, including design and support work, and unit tests for the implementation in Canterbury. The full release notes contain more details about all the work that has been poured in this release: https://wiki.apertis.org/16.09/ReleaseNotes Images are already available for download at https://images.apertis.org/release/16.09/ Thanks to everyone who contributed! -- Emanuele Aina www.collabora.com
