gwget-0.99-3mdv2008.0.x86_64.rpm

VERSION 0.91
============
- gwget.schema for Gconf (in cvs).
- Proxy support, global Gnome proxy and manual proxy (See #157462).  

VERSION 0.95
============
- Check other Wget functions that are interesting for a 
  download manager (without adding more options in preferences window).
- User / Password for ftp (with gnome-keyring integration? )
- Shutdown internet connection after last download have completed.
- Manage maximun number of concurrent downloads.

VERSION 1.0 
===========
- Reduce number of preferences. Probably most current preferences
  could be removed or moved (for example, some pref about webpage
  download could be only displayed when the webpage dialog appear).
  For most preferences we could detect the correct behavior.
- Code clean up. It will be required before starting Post 1.0 features
  that require some architectural changes.
- HIG control.
- Write documentation.
- Fix all typos

VERSION 1.1
===========
- A download history (it requires discussions in order not to complexify
  too much the main window).
- Plugins management. It will allow to use Gwget as a central place to
  manage all downloads. All downloads being done by Gwget or another
  program (e.g. bittorrent, p2p, system update) will be shown in 
  Gwget. Basic actions (pause, resume) will be enabled on these
  downloads. Other tools will be able to set a priority (e.g. LOW for
  a background system update, NORMAL for usual bittorent files, HIGH for
  an important system update), this will require to code the scheduler
  (see below).

VERSION 1.2
===========
- A download scheduler. This will solve the problem of all files
  downloading at the same time. For example with a "Shortest Processing
  Time First" rule this will allow the download of little files
  (e.g. Text files) to precede downloads of big files (e.g. ISO files).
  At the end, users always need more immediatly little files than big
  one (because the user know big files will take some time whereas
  little files have an immediate use). **IT NEEDS MORE DISCUSSION**
- When other functions are coded, it will be possible to combine Plugins
  management and download scheduler (e.g. pause p2p when downloading
  urgent system update).

VERSION 1.3
===========
- Implement a default directory system. The idea is
  to save each files in a specific directory (e.g. Movies in ~/Movies), and
  if the file type is unknown, it could default to home directory.
  **IT NEEDS MORE DISCUSSION**


DONE
====
- Support gnome-session.
- Clean the popup menu. Currently there are too much options.
- Epiphany extension. 
- Accept urls from the command line. This option it's more useful if
  gwget could detect if another instance of gwget it's already running 
  and add the download to the current gwget (as gedit do for text file).
  Read gedit source for ideas. 
- Make it remember if you want or don't want a Toolbar (Done in 0.11).
- Make it possible to choose what columns to have (Done in 0.11)
- Drag&Drop Support (Done)
- GdkPixBuf in main Gtktreeview (Done)
