A slightly different format for these release notes.
We missed a couple of releases in the 2.29 cycle and the big changes
cheese went through meanwhile deserves something better than a cold
list of commit messages.
Big thanks go to Bastien Nocera who took up most longstanding items
in our TODO list and implemented them right away.
So let's see what happened since 2.28. Note that most of the following
stuff is still a work in progress so don't expect everything listed to
be completed.
* Completely dropped HAL dependency
Port most HAL code for v4l capability probing into udev and use
gudev in cheese to take advantage of it.
Add infrastructure (CheeseCameraDeviceMonitor) for dynamic
device hotplugging (UI yet to come).
Add optional udev dependency and provide a simple entry point
for non linux platforms that will want to use their custom
detection code (still waiting for patches).
* First steps in splitting cheese code into two libraries
- libcheese-common
Will provide basic non UI related cheese functions: basically,
device detection, device monitoring, video format handling.
- libcheese-gtk
A set of widgets that will allow third party application to
include parts of cheese functionality (e.g. the avatar chooser
will soon embed a viewfinder for quickly shooting a nice
buddy icon). Ideally cheese will be soon based on this set of
widgets being the first user of our own library.
* Rework most of device capability handling code
Rewrite caps detection code trying to use gstreamer api instead of
our own custom stuff whenever possible.
Remove framerate retrieving code since we didn't use it since a
couple of releases.
* Make startup slightly faster
Probe device capabilities in PAUSED state instead of PLAYING.
This was actually a workaround for a now fixed gstreamer bug (See
#587082).
Just a two line change but cheese is notably faster now!
* Cosmetic changes
Remove all the fake webcam code and use a still error image when
no webcam is available.
Drop EphySpinner in favor of the new GtkSpinner. Invert colors to
make it sexier.
Remove actions (SendTo stuff) from the contextual menu. It wasn't
exactly the best way to interoperate with the desktop. And most of
them worked suboptimally anyway.
* Move to GST_DEBUG (first steps, probably needs work)
We use gstreamer anyway, why not to take full advantage of it?
Gstreamer debug infrastructure is really cool and surely a lot
better than our previous g_prints.
* Fixed bugs
#598902 — Make flash window a popup
#594966 — Drop HAL
#603595 — Add a photo-taken signal, which passes a pixbuf
#522199 — First pass at webcam widget for use in other applications
#598445 — Use GtkSpinner instead of our own
#603152 — Use libcanberra instead of GStreamer for shutter
#603161 — Make CheeseGConf a singleton object

The "Translator accidentally the entire file" release.
A translator accidentally removed the LINGUAS file so no translations have been
shipped in 2.29.5. This is fixed by this release.

GNOME System Tools Version 2.29.2, 2010-01-11
-----------------------------------------------
Users
=====
- Move to new System Tools Backends protocol (new liboobs API). We now only commit changes to one user at a time, reducing the risk for dangerous bugs.
- Include default profiles configuration file (user-profiles.conf). Distributors should modify it to suit their needs and send them back for inclusion.
- When creating an user, don't force UID, main group, home directory and shell: these parameters are now handled (better) by the platform tools.
- Allow removing home directory when deleting an user.
- Don't allow deleting the last administrator account, and warn when the user is losing its own admin rights. Same for active users.
- Don't allow creating a group with an existing GID.
- Use UID and GID ranges defined by liboobs, depending on the platform's abilities.
- Clear suggested login entry when Real name is emptied in the new user dialog.
- Change GConf "showall" option to apply only on users. System groups are always shown, since they are the most interesting ones.
- Various UI and string improvements.

Liboobs 2.29.2.1, 2010-01-12
-----------------------------------------------
Liboobs version 2.29.2.1 "I Got It Bad And That Ain't Good" has been released.
- Fix missing header that was preventing the GNOME System Tools from building (Götz Waschk)
Liboobs version 2.29.2 "Follow Suit" has been released. This release depends on the System Tools Backends 2.9.0.
- Move to the new System Tools Backends users and groups protocol. This mainly implies that OobsUser and OobsGroup are now OobsObjects, and can be committed individually, with new add() and delete() methods.
- Add new fields from this protocol: passwords are now in clear text, UIDs and GIDs can be guint32, new password and home flags, encrypted home boolean, locale and location.
- When committed, OobsUser is immediately updated with the D-Bus reply, to fill fields that were left empty and chosen by the platform tools.
- Add a lot of convenience functions to manage users and groups lists, taken from the GNOME System Tools.
- Raise OOBS_MAX_[UG]ID to G_MAXUINT32 on platforms where it is possible, now that the protocol supports it. Use << instead of pow().
- Fix OobsSession not being a singleton.
* Added SoupContentDecoder, providing support for
Content-Encoding: gzip for WebKitGTK. [#522772]
* Added "accept-language" and "accept-language-auto"
properties to SoupSession, to support the Accept-Language
header. [#597004, Mario Sanchez Prada]

crashes if you typed the wrong password once and then tried
again. [#595554, debugged by Gustavo Noronha Silva]
* Fixed a crash in SoupAuthDigest if the server claims support
for both qop=auth and qop=auth-int. (This was not noticed
sooner because no one actually supports qop=auth-int, and
the server in question here was probably confused. :)
* Updated cookie parsing/output to more closely match
draft-ietf-httpstate-cookie-00. [Also fixes #603496 (WebKit
unit test), and #604794 (hang parsing malformed Set-Cookie
header)]
* Fixed https-via-proxy to not hang if there is an error
communicating with the proxy immediately after the TLS
negotiation. [#587528]
* Fixed a bug that broke gobject-introspection's introspection
of libsoup. [#603696, Vincent Untz]

Alexander V. Butenko]
* Fixed soup-message-client-io to not erroneously include URI
fragments on the Request-Line when sending via a proxy.
[Related to WebKit bug #28687]
* Fixed Digest authentication against certain (buggy?)
clients/servers that require you to use quotes in exactly the
same places where the spec uses them. [#582219]
* Fix ugly gtype-related hack to work with the latest unstable
glib. [Benjamin Otte]
2.29.2 (changes since latest stable 2.28.4 release):
* General:
- Add disk buffering for QuickTime and Flash video files,
and only start playing the file when it can be played
uninterrupted until the end
