+ <p>Web, the GNOME browser, has a new downloads interface. These are now
+ show in a popover, that can be accessed from the header bar. This means
+ that downloads don’t get in the way, and you can also easily previous
+ downloads.</p>

<title>Smaller Things</title>
<p>As usual, there are many other smaller improvements in this GNOME
release. Here are some of them:</p>
<list>
- <item><p>TODO: Printer jobs dialog (not finished)</p></item>
- <item><p>New downloads popover in Web. Downloads don’t get in the way,
- and you can also easily previous downloads.</p></item>
- <item><p>Calendar’s quick add popover now enables you to select in which
- calendar you want to add an event. The year view also looks much better
- now.</p></item>
- <item><p>Your computer’s MAC address is randomly masked when scanning for
- Wi-Fi access points. This prevents tracking by other parties.</p></item>
- <item><p>NEEDS FINISHING: To Do has a list view of tasklists.</p></item>
- <item><p>Software interface is more responsive; the home page expands to
- make use of more space. Installed, updates, and categories views look
- better on large displays.</p></item>
- <item><p>Animated check boxes and radio buttons.</p></item>
- <item><p>A “show percentage” option added to the top bar. Also accessible
- from dconf Editor.</p></item>
- <item><p>If your system cannot detect whether a headset, headphones or a
- microphone is plugged in, a new system dialog will ask you what kind of
- device it is.</p></item>
+ <item><p>Calendar’s quick add popover now enables you to select which
+ calendar you want to add an event to. The look of the year view has also
+ been improved.</p></item>
+ <item><p>Your computer’s MAC address is now randomly masked when scanning
+ for Wi-Fi access points. This prevents tracking by other parties.
+ </p></item>
+ <item><p>In the To Do application, tasks in the scheduled view are now
+ grouped under date headings. A new plugin system is planned to allow
+ linking with online task managers, as well as adding a variety of
+ creative features.</p></item>
+ <item><p>Software now makes better use of screen space: when it has
+ space, the number of applications on the the landing page grows, and the
+ installed, updates, and categories views look better on large displays.
+ </p></item>
+ <item><p>Check boxes and radio buttons now have subtle animations when
+ they are selected.</p></item>
+ <item><p>An option now allows the battery charge percentage to be shown
+ in the top bar. This option can be found in dconf Editor, under <gui>org
+ ‣ gnome ‣ desktop ‣ interface ‣ show-battery-percentage</gui>.</p></item>
+ <item><p>If you plug in an audio device (such as a headset, headphones or
+ microphone) and it cannot be identified, you will now be asked what kind
+ of device it is. This addresses an issue which prevented headsets and
+ microphones being used on many Dell computers.</p></item>
+ <item><p>Documents now allows you to list your documents by author, date
+ or name, and looks better when views are empty.</p></item>
+ <item><p>In the Settings app, the printer jobs dialog has been updated
+ with a clean, modern style.</p></item>
+ <item><p>Boxes, the GNOME application for using virtual and remote machines,
+ automatically creates a snapshot after a virtual machine has been
+ created. This makes it easy to revert the machine to its original state.
+ </p></item>
</list>
</section>
+<!-- TODO: add an item on rfkill buttons. -->
+<!-- TODO: check on status of orca item and add if OK:
+
+ <item><p>Improved clipboard functionality in Orca. For instance, Orca is
+ able to recognize if the text that has just been copied, cut or deleted
+ from a document matches the clipboard contents, and will tell you so
+ instead of repeating the text.</p></item>
