Closed zagortenay333 closed 7 years ago
Hello,
This issue is being closed because development is moving to linuxmint/cinnamon-spices/applets. Feel free to reopen your issue there.
Please see the release announcement here:

Not gonna bother tbh. Hope you update this. It's just one function...
Hi @zagortenay333,
Please understand it's impossible for me to follow changes like this. I can't conclude from the discussion linked in #175 what the "right" call would be either, and there is no alternative source we can depend on re: breaking changes.
A benefit of having all the Spices "adopted" is that the Cinnamon team can make appropriate changes directly. Note, I do not myself have commit access. (Tagging @clefebvre: I would love to be considered, if you think I can help triage, document, etc.)
I do encourage you to submit this change there, and see what they think.
Wait, so you've given up the rights on this applet? Are you the person who wrote this applet?

Linux Mint recently decided to take over maintenance for all "spices," meaning every entry on cinnamon-spices.linuxmint.com has source code available at github.com/linuxmint.
Since cinnamon-spices-applets is now the official home for all applets, this repo should be considered a "stale fork."

I didn't author most of the code, but it has been "mine" in the sense I made the original port, and kept it up over the years. I would not agree I had or gave up any rights (it's open source!).
Overall, it's positive if the developers best able to make decisions about compatibility can release updates directly. I'll still be around; the division of labor has just improved.
This is updated for cinna 3.2. I don't know how you deal with backwards compatibility though.
