hoodle will be announced soon!

[Ian-Woo Kim]

Hi, all,

After a long period of silence, I am about to announce hoodle (yay! I
changed the name!) soon.
All of the previous naming 'hxournal' are abandoned and now the
namespace has a brand new start Hoodle. (soon, this google group willl
be migrated to hoodle, too)
As for functionality, several new important changes happened.

Now I changed file format to support image embedding. New file format
has hdl extension. Hoodle can read xoj file (xournal format), but
cannot write xoj file.
And hoodle can load image as an object. Also, I made the hoodle
clipboard work for different documents. (previously, copy and paste
were possible only in one document.)
In continuous page mode, pages are now viewed in multiple columns when
zooming out. So now one can read hoodle file pages at once.

Internally, basic coroutine design is changed. This is good for
stability and will be helpful for a better design for concurrency.

New hoodle starts with version 0.1 as this is a new start. Main
library is hoodle-core, hoodle-types, hoodle-render, hoodle-parser,
hoodle-builder and they depend on previous hxournal-xxx packages.

I wish that this will be able to be announced before October, but if
you want to try first, please feel free to check

poppler library has some problem with recent versions of gtk. To make
it work, you probably need to apply my patch for poppler-0.12.2 on

Thanks for your interest!
