 Dear Sugar Community,

 this is Release Candidate 2 for the upcoming 0.84 Release - see the [1]
 for more details. Only one more week to go in this release cycle. Please
 test this release and report all the bugs you find that we are able to
 fix them in time. A friendly BugSquad [2] will be available to triage
 those bugs accordingly and the developers can never have enough bug
 food. If you have non-bug feedback about features you can use the
 sugar-devel mailing list to share it with us.

 From a user point of view we want to highlight the following changes
 that have been made:

 === Resume by Default ===
 Resume by default is now the way we handle activity startup. The option
 in the Favourites View palette has been removed completely. You can
 still start a new instance using the 'Start' option in the Activity
 palette.

 === View Source ===
 There has been some refinements to the View Source dialog. You can
 access it from the Activity palette in the Frame or by using
 'Shift+Alt+V' directly.

Yes, the XO keybindings should keep working as before, though I think
there's some bug in the keyboard mapping in soas images right now.

I want to annotate that we have as well a new version of the Log [1] 
activity and TurtleArt [2]. Sorry for let those slipping through. Please 
make sure to package them as well.

[Sugar-devel] [ANNOUNCE] Sucrose 0.84 Release Candidate 2 (0.83.6)

2009-02-23 Thread Simon Schampijer
Dear Sugar Community,

this is Release Candidate 2 for the upcoming 0.84 Release - see the [1] 
for more details. Only one more week to go in this release cycle. Please 
test this release and report all the bugs you find that we are able to 
fix them in time. A friendly BugSquad [2] will be available to triage 
those bugs accordingly and the developers can never have enough bug 
food. If you have non-bug feedback about features you can use the 
sugar-devel mailing list to share it with us.

 From a user point of view we want to highlight the following changes 
that have been made:

=== Resume by Default ===
Resume by default is now the way we handle activity startup. The option 
in the Favourites View palette has been removed completely. You can 
still start a new instance using the 'Start' option in the Activity palette.

=== View Source ===
There has been some refinements to the View Source dialog. You can 
access it from the Activity palette in the Frame or by using 
'Shift+Alt+V' directly.

The coloured activity icon represents the source of the activity 
instance. The outlined activity icon represent the bundle source for the 
activity itself, the template. We use this to help draw a distinction 
between the "activity instance" and the "activity bundle"

Using the uncoloured outline to represent the bundle vs the coloured 
icon to represent an instance has been the design cue all along.

=== File transfer ===
We make use of the files new file transfer files now.

=== Read ===
Morgan fixed an error that was introduced due to changes in Evince.

=== Browse ===
Martin Langhoff has been adding functionality to authenticate with the 
Schoolserver. When registered with the server an HTTP Cookie is created 
to ease the use of services on the Schoolserver in future sessions. 
Thanks to Daniel Drake Browse propagates the current locale now. This 
helps to use web services and pages in your mother language. Try it out 
with the [http://addons.sugarlabs.org/ addons] page for example.


Thanks everyone for your great contributions!
