Thanks to all who contributed to kicking off the Oneiric cycle by brainstorming topics, drafting blueprints, participating in sessions in person or remotely, taking notes, and more.
A few highlights for those who couldn't attend (or couldn't participate in all 15 rooms at the same time): Desktop: - Conservative cycle, good balance for the rapid innovation in Natty. - Migrating to GNOME 3/GTK 3. - X.org will stay with version 1.10. - Focus for Unity is consolidation: bug fixing, usability testing, automated testing, accessibility testing, and stress testing. - Thunderbird may become the default mail client. Determination will be made at Alpha 3, based on the completion of specific tasks. - Interesting work going into tools for building localized CD's. Server: - Enhancements for Orchestra (integrated "best of breed" tools for provisioning, management, orchestration, monitoring, caching/mirroring). - OpenStack for Ubuntu Cloud. - Packaging MySQL 5.5, Percona Server, MariaDB, Jenkins, Ensemble (PPA), Cloudera Hadoop. - Work on automated testing of server installs. Kubuntu: - Updating to KDE 4.7.2 and Qt 4.8. - Defaults: Plasma, Muon Software Center, Rekonq, KMix, Quassel, Touchégg. - Accessibility in Qt and general accessibility improvements. - Substantial work going into Kubuntu Mobile and Kubuntu Tablet. Foundations: - FeatureFreeze moved to week 15, just after Alpha 3, for greater stability in Alpha 3, and 3 weeks of testing and bug fixing before Beta 1. - Integrate backports package selection (new feature in Natty) into the UI. - Improvements to Ratings and Reviews in Software Center. - Further work in multiarch (goal to replace ia32-libs). - Python 2.7 and 3.2. Drop 2.6 after Debian transitions to 2.7 by default. 3.2 on the CD if space allows.
