KNewStuff 2 (aka Masnak?)

Warning
Things you see here are incomplete and totally a work in progress


API Discussion

Classes will (mostly) be:

Generic TODO

  • Rename KNS::Entry, and, consequentially, KNS::CompleteEntry

What still needs to be done (getting rid of the above section)

  • Merge DXS and GHNS download dialogs. Also check with usability guys.
  • Add networking capabilities to Plasmagik.
  • Finish the code for the metadata generation.
  • The handler, to locally manage packages.
  • Write a cache removal strategy, that should be the last bit of the networking stuff.
  • Anything else?

Other

KNewStuff2 will store all the files in a specific dir. The layout of this dir, and all the related informations gan be found here.
