Thank you, James. I got a clarification from your reply. I don't think that a meeting is required now. I will surely ask for a meeting if I am stuck anywhere. ;-) On Fri, May 17, 2019 at 10:54 AM James Cameron wrote: > Thanks for asking. > > I've removed CCs, as these people are all on

Thanks for asking. I've removed CCs, as these people are all on sugar-devel@, and replies do trigger limit on addressee count reported by Mailman software. I don't think a meeting is needed, but I can attend one if you call it. Please choose a time that both Rahul and I can be available. What

Thanks. James. Agreed, there can be a number of runtime dependencies that the user has to install. I don't think mentioning them all in the documentation will be a good idea. What do you think? On Thu, May 16, 2019 at 9:31 AM James Cameron wrote: > Thanks for testing, Aniket. > > Because 0.113

I agree with Ibiam, your screenshot is not the home view. Use the F3 key, as I said. See https://help.sugarlabs.org/ for how to switch between views. Yes, what you are doing is useful. For your assumed goal of *truly* begginer-friendly recipe, I'd like you to write a list of requirements for

Hi Jeff, The screenshot you sent shows the neighborhood view and not the home view, try using F3 to switch to the home view where you'll see the activities. On Thu, May 16, 2019, 1:48 PM Jeff Elkner wrote: > OK, progress. Pressing F6 lets me select the Desktop, but activities > are not

OK, progress. Pressing F6 lets me select the Desktop, but activities are not showing (see screenshot). In the instant that the Desktop displayed before switching to the journal, I saw at least 4 activities. I'd also like to check-in that what I am doing is useful to the community, and that we

I know, thanks. My question is where was Jeff's original post? Jeff wasn't subscribed and the post isn't in the archives of the mailing list, so I'm asking how it got to you. Perhaps there's something we need to change so we don't rely on you alone. If it was private to you, then of course
