(If you like could you commit, I'm out of commit access) you don't have commit access? eh? of course you do! :) or you mean you can't commit right now due to network or whatever issues? my comment is on low mem/batttery events. as per my other mails. i think these are better renamed POWER_STATE and MEMORY_STATE ... along with all the getters and setters - make power state an enum and memory state too. :) memory state for now can just be NORMAL and LOW for memory we can add more enums/state later if we want. :) > On Thu, Aug 8, 2013 at 3:24 PM, Gustavo Sverzut Barbieri > <barbi...@profusion.mobi> wrote: > > On Thu, Aug 8, 2013 at 3:18 PM, Michael Blumenkrantz > > <michael.blumenkra...@gmail.com> wrote: > >> On Thu, 8 Aug 2013 15:13:01 -0300 > >> Gustavo Sverzut Barbieri <barbi...@profusion.mobi> wrote: > >> > >>> On Thu, Aug 8, 2013 at 3:01 PM, Michael Blumenkrantz > >>> <michael.blumenkra...@gmail.com> wrote: > >>> > On Thu, 8 Aug 2013 14:48:54 -0300 > >>> > Gustavo Sverzut Barbieri <barbi...@profusion.mobi> wrote: > >>> > > >>> >> On Thu, Aug 8, 2013 at 2:31 PM, Michael Blumenkrantz > >>> >> <michael.blumenkra...@gmail.com> wrote: > >>> >> > On Thu, 08 Aug 2013 17:16:40 +0100 > >>> >> > Tom Hacohen <tom.haco...@samsung.com> wrote: > >>> >> > > >>> >> >> I like almost all of the suggestions.
