Is that of any > significance? Yes, that's certainly significant. However, I cannot get the program to crash on my computer, and I can't figure out the sequence of events leading up to the crash. The program crashes when the mouse motion event handler is called. Apparently at that time, the memory location of the wire has become invalid, even though the startcatalog() routine has not yet been called. This is probably due to the window manager making X event calls, which may happen differently on your system than on mine. Tomorrow when I get my desktop computer back, I will try to reproduce the error under the gnome desktop, and see if that makes a difference. It may be necessary to force cancellation of mouse motion event handler callbacks in a different place. I'll let you know tomorrow or Tuesday if I can reproduce the crash on any computer that I have available.

Rahul Guys, you are lacking Feature Pages, and are therefore not yet approved by Release Engineering to be composed for the Beta. Create your feature pages and drop a note on both the fedora-spins mailing list, as well as the fedora-advisory-board for trademark approval, after which you can continue to move to the rel-eng mailing list at lists.fedoraproject.org to get your final approval. Most appropriate would be to do so in advance of the Beta Feature Freeze, coming up August 19th.

I won't dare to package unstable packages (for fedora stable releases) now while FEL is gaining popularity around the world. While xcircuit is a crucial application for Front-End design, I believe our job for F10 is to ensure it's stability for our designers . One thing I've been fighting _before_ FEL was to ensure interoperability (in the end, having design flows with the tools we ship). in the case of opencircuitdesign: xcircuit (circuit) -> -> netgen (lvs) magic (layout) -> I would hate to see that xcircuit devel release break that design flow, thus making netgen useless to ship. As you have perhaps guessed, we (FEL) need a testsuite (or even a benchmark suite) for our packages that will help us evaluate: - whether our design flows still exists and no intermediate steps are broken (working with upstream is crucial). - when to ship major upstream releases (Fedora _needs_ to be cutting edge) - ....... I was once working on such (very simple one) testsuite, however didnt got time to complete. I'll post an alpha release soon. latest stable magic, xcircuit, netgen and irsim will hit "updates" repo once the infrastructure issue has been solved [1]: [1]:https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-announce-list/2008-August/msg00008.html Chitlesh From chitlesh at gmail.com Mon Aug 18 07:59:55 2008 From: chitlesh at gmail.com (Chitlesh GOORAH) Date: Mon, 18 Aug 2008 09:59:55 +0200 Subject: [Fedora-electronic-lab-list] Request for Trademark Approval (Fedora Electronic Lab Spin) Message-ID: <13dbfe4f0808180059t6d67c04p9550d5561a20f966@mail.gmail.com> Hello there, Yet again, Fedora Electronic Lab wants to be part of the huge feature list of Fedora's next release.
