This week quite some bug fixes have entered both 4.10 and master branch. One of the most interesting one is the improved detection for whether a window is on the local system or on a remote one. If you want to get more information about that read my dedicated blog post. But there are also some nice general improvements. The first KConfigXT patch has entered and work has started to make use of it in our Options class. The XCB porting continous with an improved Xcb::Wrapper class – for this I plan to write a dedicated post as it’s an interesting topic from the C++ perspective.
