Re: Features !

[Seif Lotfy <seif lotfy com>]

The Jump-list stuff has been on my list for a while:

What we are facing here is:

    Adding actions to the appmenus: new tab (browser), new note (for tomboy or gnote) or pause (for the media players)

    Adding document shortcuts in the appmenus: 4 most recent documents and other most used (in the last x days) documents with gedit

I already have a solution for the second and the implementation is there but relies on zeitgeist since a lot of apps don't store their actions into gtk.recentmanager (we also are looking into https://live.gnome.org/GTK%2B/GtkRecentManagerAndZeitgeist) and most used can only be calculated by something that tracks history like Zeitgeist.

I am up for the task of implementing this feature if a designer and a technical expert can dedicate some time to walk through concept with me.

Cheers

Hey,

so according to the draft schedule that Andre posted a while ago, we
are in the middle of the 'feature proposal' period right now. I
haven't seen much feature discussion here at all yet, and so far, the
wiki only lists things that I have put there, which is a little scary
- I can't be the only one itching to get cool things into GNOME 3.4.

Where are your ideas ? It would be great to get them onto that wiki
page, in particular since next weekend a bunch of us will get together
in Montreal to, among other things, spend time to talk about 3.4
features.

Anyway, to make a start, here are the things that have been proposed
as features so far:

   Boxes - a new application to access vms and remote systems

   Application menu / Actions / Jumplists - make the appmenu useful

   Lock Screen - unify the lock screen and the login screen, visually

   IBus/XKB support - make the region panel control input methods +
keyboard layouts together

   Network Zones
   Network Panel Improvements - make networking not suck

   GNOME Documents
   User Panel Improvements
   Wacom Panel Improvements
      - incremental improvements for various parts of the desktop
