Hi guys,
As you have noticed, I have been busy for some while.
Because of this, I've hardly followed the discussions on the mailing lists and now I'm trying to catch up with the development, again. Could you guys give me a little update? ;-)
Just some things I noticed while testing HEAD:
1) The interface scaling is partly broken, as far as I can see. With the default theme, all the text is displayed way too large - except for the optgroups in the database selection. With the darkblue / organge theme, it looks better, but there are still some places, where table captions are displayed too large.
I noticed, that you've worked on some XHTML-related stuff, so I guess this is still under contruction? I could provide screen shots, if you want me to.
2) On server_status.php, I noticed that you have devided the variables into groups and added small descriptions. Well, at least for the different storage engines, I started doing the same on server_engines.php. For some variables, we now have even redundant descriptions in our lang files. :-/
Regarding the fact, that server_status.php has become quite large, I'd suggest to move the stuff that is related to a specific storage engine to server_engines.php and libraries/engines.
3) I have worked on a code splitup of server_privileges.php in order to implement the new MySQL 5 privileges, including the new privilege level and removing all "SELECT ... FROM mysql" queries on MySQL 5. I had to stop because of some bugs in MySQL 5, that have been fixed meanwhile.
Is anyone working on the privilege system right now? Otherwise, I'd resume my work and try to merge it with the changes you have made during the time I've been inactive.
Regards,
AMT
