PKGLOCALEDIR and which install their locale files directly under
${PREFIX}/${PKGLOCALEDIR} and sort the PLIST file entries. From now
on, pkgsrc/mk/plist/plist-locale.awk will automatically handle
transforming the PLIST to refer to the correct locale directory.
This is the first 0.9 release - the main editing widget has been rewritten
since the last release (0.7.16). Please download it and try to break things
(and fix them - patches gratefully acepted!).
The new code fixes a long-standing problem where Conglomerate would crash when
loading certain documents. This has now been fixed (we believe), so that
Conglomerate should now be able to load and display any well-formed XML
document. The design is simpler and should enable us to implement more
sophisticated effects in the future (e.g. table editing).
Unfortunately, whilst it's better than it was at loading files, it's now less
stable when it comes to editing them. There are quite a few bugs still present
in the new implementation - for example, "span tags" are invisible if present
in a document loaded off disk (freshly created span tags appear as expected).
This and other bugs can be seen below a tracker bug ( bug # 143769 ); please
file bugs with editing and attach them to this tracker bug.

(Marcel Telka)
Fixes to improve stability of basic editing (Nickolay V. Shmyrev)

"Lorem ipsum" text from Cicero's "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum",
based on http://lipsum.com/ (David Malcolm)
* Cleaned up to fix bug # 145096 (David Malcolm)

* Updated translations: Albanian (sq) (Laurent Dhima), Serbian (sr.po,
sr@Latn.po) (Danilo ?egan), nl (Daniel van Eeden), Czech (cs) (Miloslav
Trmac), Greek (el) (Kostas Papadimas), German (de) (Christian Neumair),
Croatian (hr) (Robert Sedak)
* Added preliminary support for the TEI Lite format (Roberto Rosselli Del
Turco)
* Big fix of XML namespace handling. Dispspecs now refer to elements using a
namespace URI (if any) and the local name within that namespace.
Element-matching code now uses namespaces rather than prefixes in various
places, including the XSL-FO and RELAX NG plugins, which should lead to
more robust handling of arbitrary documents. (me)
* When determining which dispspec to use, calculate coverage of the document
elements and pick the best (above a certain threshold percentage) (me)
* New dialog for selecting which child element to insert when a DTD requires
such a choice. The new dialog lists both the XML names and the translated
names with icons where available (me)
* Added a workaround for bug #124507 which pops up a dialog explaining what
the problem is and tells you which elements are causing it. The problem
elements will not appear in the editor widget. The dialog repeats every
time the document is editor, but this is better behaviour than a silent
crash :-) (me)
Fixes
* Reorganised source tree so that the xds files live in their own "dispspecs"
subdirectory, rather than sharing the "examples" folder with the sample
instance documents (Geert Stappers)
* Tidying up of plugin management code to use Service IDs to identify
instances and GType to identify classes (me)
* Big warning fix, should now compile cleanly on "-Wall -Werror" (me)
* Big cleanup of the insides of the popup context menu, replacing lots of
obcure hackery with a more maintainable system. (me)
Conglomerate 0.7.11
===================
Enhancements
* New translations: no (Kjaartan Marass), fr (Alban Browaeys),
sq (Laurent Dhima)
* Updated translations: cs (Miloslav Trmac), es (Francisco Javier
F. Serrador), nl (Daniel van Eeden), no (Kjartan Maraas), pt
(Duarte Loreto), sr/sr@Latn (Danilo ?egan),
* The File->New assistant now has a "Random Document" plugin, which
is both great fun, and good for testing. If you select this, you
reach a page where you can select a document type from those
available (based on the dispspec files loaded). You can also specify
a "depth" which is used to give an idea of how deep the document's
tree should be. If a DTD is available, Conglomerate will try to
ensure that the document is valid against that DTD. It also
generates random text, to really push the unicode support (it
generates random strings using most of the full range of Unicode).
(me)
* If a DTD if found, the DTD tab of the Properties dialog for a node
now has a "content model" view, showing the valid child elements
that are allowed by the DTD in a tree form. (me)
* First attempt at a "Find" dialog; improving this and the "Replace"
dialog would make great jobs for programmers wanting to get
involved. (me)
* Big rewrite of the plugin code with the aim of eventually moving
over to libgnomeoffice's framework. Plugins contain services of
various kinds; everything is now a GObject subclass. (me)
* The "--enable-printing" configuration option no longer requires
libfo; this is now enabled separately with a new "--enable-libfo"
option (me)
* Change template code to use a <cong:template> element (Jeff Martin)

Larsson)
* Added a template file for display specifications to the examples
subfolder (Boris Goldowsky)
Conglomerate 0.7.10
===================
Enhancements
* The Home and End keys now take you to the start/end of text
within the current structural element; with Ctrl pressed they
take you to the start/end of text within the document. Shift can
be used to drag out selections as usual. This fixes bug #109698
(me)
Fixes
* Big rewrite of File->Properties dialog - it now uses Glade, it
updates in response to changes of DTD, file URL and modification
status (bugs #122029, 130728) (me)
* Overview tree's root element now changes when the file's URL
changes (bug #130728) (me)
* Fix for bug #130724 (crash on loading examples/test-docbook.c)
(me)
* Added a wrapper function to generate generic property dialog
descriptions to reduce translator workload (fixes bug #124780)
(me)
* Various documentation and Debian packaging fixes, including bug
#123131 (Geert Stappers)
* Disabled plugin support for Norman Walsh's website format as
it's currently too broken to be worth supporting (see Bugzilla
#113001 for some of the problems) (me)
Conglomerate 0.7.9
==================
Enhancements
* Support for middle mouse button paste of PRIMARY (me)
* Update PRIMARY whenever selection changes, fixing bugs #130248
and #126039 (me)
* Rewrite of clipboard and selection code. Selections are now
offered and received as both XML and as text, in a sane format,
fixing bug #129731 (me)
* Updated translations - cs (Miloslav Trmac), sr, sr@Latn (Danilo
??egan), pt (Duarte Loreto), es (Francisco Javier F. Serrador)
* Installs GConf schema file (Geert Stappers)
Fixes
* Fixed various compilation warnings (me)
* Fix for bug #125918 (Elements appearing in incorrect order) (me)
* Fixed various bugs in the calculation of selection highlighting
(including bug #124130); added an early reject to throw away
unnecessary updates when dragging out a selection with the mouse
(me)
* Added ordering function for comparing nodes; fixed long-standing
bug in CongRange reordering function which was causing glitches
in the selection code (me)
* Fixed bug when moving cursor to next word near end of a node's
content which would generate an invalid cursor location
off-by-one beyond the valid range (me)

more HIG-compliant (David Hoover).
And more bugfixes, etc.
Changes:
Enhancements
Beginnings of RELAX NG support
* An importer that reads DTD files and generate RELAX NG schema.
(me)
* A Conglomerate display specification for editing RELAX NG schema
files. (me)

files (Jeff Martin)
* XML doc types can specify a file extension. For example, RELAX
NG schema files have a ".rng" extension, and HTML files have
".html" extension. (me)
* The display spec file can specify a formal Public ID for the
DTD, and the code will try to use this, even if the XML file
doesn't explicitly specify the DTD. (me)
* The File->Properties dialog allows you to remove DTD
associations, and can guess at a DTD if one is not present. It
has a button to add the association to the document header. (me)
* The display specification file format now supports XML
namespaces (me)
Improvements to the "Cleanup the XML Source" tool
* The tool now understands the difference between structural and
span tags and doesn't force line breaks for span tags. (me)
* Fixed some bugs and improved look of the resulting source, IMHO.
(me)

* Improvements to the DTD for our display specification files (me,
Jeff Martin)
* Various test files should now be in the examples subdirectory of
the tarball (Geert Stappers)

Weekly News) - move the cursor to the end of a <para> tag and
press Delete, or to the start of a tag and press Backspace. (me)
* Probably some other things I missed :-)
Fixes
* Fixed lots of cleanup bugs when documents were closed; this
makes the app much more stable. (me)
* Fix for bux #118769 - a new dialog to select importers if more
than one is applicable (me)

* Removed an unnecessary dependency on GDK 2.2 which broke the
build on Red Hat 8
Conglomerate is a project to create a complete structured information
authoring, management, archival, revision control and transformation system.
Conglomerate uses XML semantics and powerful graphical editing, coupled with
a centralised storage model and a flexible transformation language to create
an environment which is easy to use, produces high-quality structured output
and lets the user target several output media with a single source document.
Provided by Juan RP in pkgsrc-wip with some changes by me.
