I guess this is where this should go? Clue me in if it should be posted elsewhere. Caryl

I don't know the answer to your questions, but the patches author will know for sure... On 3 April 2013 02:04, Caryl Bigenho <cbige...@hotmail.com> wrote: Hi... Looks like great stuff! Adapting Sugar to run on Android opens lots of possibilities. My programming days ended long ago with Pascal, but I might be able to offer some suggestions as a Sugar user... here's one to start... For the multiple selection of items in the journal... will this also allow multiple deletion of entries? That would be a handy feature I have often wished were available. Also, do the selected items have to be consecutive? Could some be skipped over (either initially or by allowing a deselect of individual items that aren't wanted on the list).

A bit late, but we finally have a schedule for the release.We are not going to have a feature acceptance deadline this time. We decided to have that discussion early, to try and narrow the focus of the release. http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/0.100/Roadmap 2. In parallel some developers will keep to refine the 0.98 series. Help is welcome on that effort. While perhaps not as exciting as new features, bug fixing and polish is essential to good software. 3. The main goal of the 0.100 release will be to the develop an HTML5 based toolkit for activities. This will facilitate running Sugar activities on other platforms, like Android. In addition we are planning to land several other features which has seen development in the past few months Multiple selection in the Journal http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Features/Multi_selection Enhanced support for 3G modems http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Features/3G_Support/Database_Support Background customization http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Features/Background_image_on_home_view Multiple home views http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Features/Multiple_home_views Integration with web services http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Features/Web_services Journal comments box http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Features/Comment_box_in_journal_detail_view Icon customization http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Features/Icon_Change 4. The project has always had a bit of an issue with submitted code being timely reviewed. The situation got worse in the last few months. This is a major blocker for contributions and we are trying to improve. Simon and Manuel, which currently maintains all the Glucose modules alone, are putting together a list of "reviewers" to help them out with the task. We are also trying to find review tools which will allow the process to be both trackable and visible to everyone (and hopefully a bit more pleasant too!). We have so far mostly experimented with a workflow based on github pull requests. 5. Walter Bender landed several patches to add a comment box to journal entries. It will be populated both by the Portfolio activity and by the web services integration which is being worked on. The obligatory screenshot http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/images/4/4a/FB-comments.png 6. All in all I think we made great progress planning the next release. But we will need everyone help to execute and make it a really good one. -- Daniel Narvaez _______________________________________________ IAEP -- It's An Education Project (not a laptop project!)
