However, I'm starting to worry the history will repeat once again: many deployments have been patching 0.82 with fixes and new features that were never upstreamed, making the transition to 0.84 much more painful that it would have been otherwise. Now we're trying to minimize the gap between development versions of Sugar and what deployments ship. The good news is that there should be pretty good activity compatibility across 0.84, 0.86 and 0.88. In Paraguay we're about to start a new development cycle to rebase the Fedora 11 builds on Sugar 0.88. Much of the stabilization effort of the 0.84 cycle actually went into the OS and activities, so I'm quite optimist. I have read your bug #1969 and contacted a blind programmer to check the selected keys. We can write in the wiki a plan and work together with small patches. Great! Small patches have a higher potential to apply cleanly to both 0.84 and 0.90. -- // Bernie Innocenti - http://codewiz.org/ \X/ Sugar Labs - http://sugarlabs.org/ ___ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel

Hi Bernie The proposed keyboard shortcuts sound good. Maybe we can chat about the TBD items?
