Some confusion probably caused by not reading the proposals for this
release. I was not aware there was a search box in the Home View. What
is its
function?
Currently, the XO palette is open when the Home View appears. This is
presumably a bug and not a feature which will be fixed by putting the
focus on the search box. I hope this new search box has a sufficiently
useful function for all XOs to justify this grab for attention.
The problem with the palette is that it is modal and no action can be
taken on the keyboard (e.g. switch to Journal or Neighborhood View or
look at Frame) until the cursor is moved. This, of course, requires one
more step in 'onboarding' to make users aware of the disabling nature of
modal dialogs.

Hello everyone,
I am pleased to announce the release of Sugar 0.107.2 (unstable). This
release means that we have reached the API, UI and Strings freeze
deadline [1] and that we should focus on making sure there are no
missing translations or exceptional bugs left.
This release comes with the following improvements:
* Collaboration works on newer systems (e.g. Fedora 23) with
activities that do not use Tubes (e.g. Chat).
* The search box in home view grabs focus automatically.
* More little steps on documenting our toolkit.
The tarballs can be downloaded from:
