GTK+ Viewer for Microsoft Kinect

Fri, 19 Nov 2010 01:09:11 +0000

I’m hacking on the new Kinect at the moment and the OpenGL viewer didn’t work for me so I threw together this terrible quality gtk+ one. I’ll clean up the code and try to get this into OpenKinect ASAP.

Map Updates

Thu, 10 Jun 2010 16:34:27 +0000

I recently made a number of improvements to osm-gps-map , the easy to use mapping widget. The motivation for these came at the request of the foxtrotGPS developers (foxtrotGPS is a community developed fork of TangoGPS). These changes enhanced the API for adding images and tracks to the map, and in addition allowed me to clean up the basic API making it easier to use for the common case. But, there is more, especially relevant to Gtk+/GNOME 3.0.

Misc Hacking

I had two days off while I moved offices, so I got a chance to catch up on my backlog of random hacking.

osm-gps-map

I released osm-gps-map v0.5.0 which adds a few new features (such as keyboard navigation) but also contains many bugfixes and performance improvements. Check the release notes for more information. The next item on the TODO is merging the OSD/layers branch.

Conduit

I released Conduit 0.3.17 which was long overdue. Mostly a bugfix release and updating to new API. The Conduit homepage has also moved to live.gnome.org. Progress on Conduit is a bit slow at the moment, it does everything I want it to (I have a budget cellphone so phone synce does not interest me), and is pretty stable. I have some SOC work I would like to merge, but basically I am looking for developers and inspiration…

Gtk+ Map Widget

Mon, 11 Jan 2010 01:14:06 +0000

It has been a long time between blogs. I thought I should talk about the piece of software that has been responsible for the most emails in my inbox over the last few days - osm-gps-map, the Gtk+ based map widget . What started as a widget for use in one small application of mine has grown considerably.

I recently released 0.4.0 , a bugfix release.
I created a mailing list , if you are a user or interested osm-gps-map, them please join.
