Re: Freeze Break for gnome-control-center to include USB protection

[Ludovico de Nittis <aasonykk gmail com>]

Hi,
considering that not everyone was okay with the UI freeze break, and
that now even the string freeze passed, I guess that it's fine to skip
the 3.36 release.
If we manage to include the gnome-control-center patch right after the
3.36 release it would be really good.

In GNOME 3.36 the USB protection could still be enabled using d-bus
(so only power users will do it) but hopefully this should be enough
to gather even more feedback from real user experience. And if
everything goes as planned we will be able to enable the lock screen
protection by default in 3.38.

Cheers,
Ludovico
