It's a lot of work because i'm doing things better than i thought
The "operations" layer works like a charme (although i have one thing to do to make it "perfect"... ah ah) and is ready for multi-accounts (but there will be no multi-account mode in the ui for now). The "models" layer is almost ready, and can handle the retrieval of *all* unread items, i have just one thing to do for this layer to say it's ready.
Then i'll have to split the ui in many files, and reconnect all events to the new "models" layer.
In this version nothing will be new in the UI. But the main enhancement is that when GRead is launched, all (unread) content can be viewed without network (and the "n" last read content as later you could set in settings, but a fixed number for now, say 40)
There is no save to local storage yet, but it should not be to difficult with the new way i wrote the application.
When this version will be done, i'll publish it here and then do some work :
preload media in items (images, enclosures) to view them offline
settings for each feed
save and load feeds from local storage
But currently it's a long work to do things correctly and so it takes some time (and after work only)
Stay tuned !
PS : and i have a lot of ideas too for the future !
PPS : with the new layers system, it should be easy to wrote differents UIs, say one for maemo, one for desktop... one for meego handset, one for meego tablet... and even none, to run in daemon mode for synchronizing content in background.
