PSA: 1.7.0 opened

[Dirk-Jan C. Binnema]

Hi all,

I had a bit of time this weekend and started with some 1.7.x
development, and it's in master now.

I'm starting with a bit of cleanup / refactoring. I'll try to keep
NEWS.org up to date with what I'm doing.

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/djcb/mu/master/NEWS.org

Anyway, a lot of churn and no new features yet, so except for the most
adventurous / development-oriented users, I would recommend staying on
the `release/1.6` branch for now; and bug fixes will go there too.

I'll do some more cleanups, and then start working on the mu4e-summary,
to replace the aging mu4e-headers.

Kind regards,
Dirk.

Hehe, I've recognized that this morning. And it won't load because
there is still a (require 'mu4e-utils) which has gone now.

Please give us a note when you are done with at least the intended
renaming and splitting to other/new files stuff. I'd like to follow
master again (and rebase the PR I have on top of that) but won't convert
my config before it has settled a bit. (Yes, I'm guilty of using some
mu4e~-functions and variables.)

Did you push that branch? I can't see it. And yes, I've run "git fetch
--all". Ah, sorry, NOW it is there but it wasn't 4 hours ago. ;-)

Adventurous times ahead!

Bye,

Hi Dirk,

I've written some code for thread folding in mu4e-headers
(https://github.com/rougier/mu4e-thread-folding) but it's a lot of
hacks and I would of course prefer to have a native solution. I
don't know if it's part of your plan for a future mu4e-summary,
but maybe thread folding might be something to keep in
mind. (possibility of headers summary would also be great for
purely aesthetic reasons).

In any case, many thanks for this wonderful package.

Best,
Nicolas

Yeah, a bit of a lab-leak incident...

Biggest stuff should be there, but give it a few days to settle
down.

Yes, that's what I'm planning to do, and in fact your code is one of the
inspirations. Hopefully with a new structure it fits in naturally.

My pleasure!
