This is a draft of next weekly newsletter. Previous Weekly Newsletter 2/2016 was #23
Hello! This is the third weekly newsletter with news in the Nuvola Player project. Weekly newsletters are sent once a week, but only if something important has happened. We don't want to make you bored. This issue deals with new features in Nuvola Player 3.1 and areport for patrons.
New features in Nuvola Player 3.1
Nuvola Player 3.1 is the current rolling series. New builds are constantly rolling out as new features are being developed. Initial milestone 3.1.0 was forked from release 3.0.0 on December 30th, 2015.
Independent installation of individual scripts for Nuvola Player 3.1
Packages in the Nuvola Player 3.1 Rolling Releases repository have been modified to support independent installation of individual scripts, which now depend only on the nuvolaplayer3-core package. As a result, both nuvolaplayer3 and nuvolaplayer3-all-services metapackages along with all scripts you don't use can be safely uninstalled.
In addition, the Homepage and Vendor script package metadata have been fixed to contain valid values and the License field is going to be corrected as well.
Reports for Patrons
There has been one report for patrons published recently: Nuvola Player in February 2016 - Report for Patrons: Generous patrons contributed €307.85 to support development of Nuvola Player in February 2015. Thanks to them, I spent 24.19 hours working on 9 tasks, which are listed bellow with a few comments, so my reward was €12.7 per hour.
