The + rest of Unity (Launcher, Indicators, HUD, etc) will not be affected. For reference, the new "smart scope service" and corresponding Unity changes was discussed here: http://fridge.ubuntu.com/2013/01/30/smart- scopes/ The spec for the "smart scope service" is here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SmartScopes1304Spec The goal is to have everything ready by the 25th March. Until then, a ppa will be updated everyday for testing the feature by a group of 5 people (the ppa will be: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-unity/+archive /experimental-certified). Existing tests will be run as per of the daily release process. That + the manual testing, we'll have a good pick on the quality status before flipping the switch. All packages will be prereviewed for NEWing and MIRing. - Code: * Existing packages: Unity: lp:~unity-team/unity/trunk (will be merged in lp:unity) Libunity: lp:~unity-team/libunity/libunity-7.0 (will be merged in lp:libunity) Apps scope: lp:~unity-team/unity-lens-applications/libunity7-compatible Files scope: lp:~unity-team/unity-lens-files/libunity7-compatible Gdrive scope: lp:~submarine/unity-scope-gdrive/libunity-7-compatible Gwibber scope: pending Ken Music scope: lp:~unity-team/unity-lens-music/libunity7-compatible Shopping scope: porting in progress Video scope: lp:~unity-team/unity-lens-video/libunity7-compatible - * New packages: Home scope: lp:~unity-team/unity-scope-home/trunk (new package, will need a MIR as well as installed by default) "100 Scopes": New packages, will need MIR as well as installed by default: lp:~submarine/ubuntu-scopes/tomboy lp:~submarine/ubuntu-scopes/yahoostock lp:~submarine/ubuntu-scopes/colourlovers lp:~submarine/ubuntu-scopes/googlenews lp:~submarine/ubuntu-scopes/calculator lp:~submarine/ubuntu-scopes/yelp lp:~submarine/ubuntu-scopes/imdb lp:~submarine/ubuntu-scopes/deviantart lp:~submarine/ubuntu-scopes/github lp:~submarine/ubuntu-scopes/virtualbox lp:~submarine/ubuntu-scopes/launchpad lp:~submarine/ubuntu-scopes/soundcloud lp:~submarine/ubuntu-scopes/manpages lp:~submarine/ubuntu-scopes/gallica lp:~submarine/ubuntu-scopes/devhelp lp:~submarine/ubuntu-scopes/audacious lp:~submarine/ubuntu-scopes/chromiumbookmarks lp:~submarine/ubuntu-scopes/clementine lp:~submarine/ubuntu-scopes/firefoxbookmarks lp:~submarine/ubuntu-scopes/gmusicbrowser lp:~submarine/ubuntu-scopes/guayadeque lp:~submarine/ubuntu-scopes/musique lp:~submarine/ubuntu-scopes/texdoc lp:~submarine/ubuntu-scopes/openweathermap lp:~submarine/ubuntu-scopes/gourmet lp:~submarine/ubuntu-scopes/openclipart lp:~submarine/ubuntu-scopes/themoviedb lp:~submarine/ubuntu-scopes/zotero This is the list I've been communicated as of 13.03.15 * Discussion on what to do for existing scopes in universe is under progress (which one/how can we port them in time): unity-lens-help - Help Lens for Unity unity-lens-radios - Unity Radios lens unity-lens-sshsearch - SSH search lens for unity unity-lens-vm - Lens to search/start available VirtualBox VMs unity-lens-pypi - Lens to search pypi modules -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1154229 Title: [FFE] New Unity Dash To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gwibber/+bug/1154229/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
