It is *NOT* part of i3’s regular +releases and should *NOT* be packaged in the usual way for distributions. +Instead, provide a separate, unofficial package if possible. + +The so called tree branch is the place where the next version of i3 is +developed. This time, we did a major code refactoring bringing many changes. +The idea is to use a tree as datastructure instead of separate lists (like one +for outputs, workspaces and a table for storing your window layout). + +Quite a few advantages arise from this new data structure. The most prominent +ones will be a slightly different look and feel, the possibility to store your +layout and restore it later, correct resizing, a much cleaner command parser +and more little improvements. + +As this is a preview release, some things are not working yet. Generally, +though, the core developers are using it already and think it’s good enough to +try it out. With this release, we want to gather feedback from you, so please +report any bugs you encounter in our bugtracker at http://i3.zekjur.net/bugs + +What should be working in this release? +--------------------------------------- + + • Basic window management, navigation, moving + • Fullscreen mode, correct aspect ratio + • Stacked/Tabbed layout, floating mode + • Splitting (for fancy layouts), resizing + • Restarts, preserving the layout + • i3bar, get it from http://git.merovius.de/ + +If any of these features do not work (correctly), please file a bugreport. + +What is not working in this release? +------------------------------------ + + • RandR changes (i3 needs to be restarted) + • Assignments + • Configfile compatibility + • Workspace switching is sometimes not working. If you find a pattern, please + report it. + • There are still some bugs in resizing.
