The circle unlock screen concept has been postponed in 2013. And, let's face it, there will always be "more important things" to do than this.
Postponed 2013: - https://lists.launchpad.net/ubuntu-phone/msg14884.html More links: initial concept, final concept, Android unlock app w/ air gestures - https://lists.launchpad.net/ubuntu-phone/msg14913.html More ideas: home screen w/ access to common scopes, spell unlock phrase swypish - https://lists.launchpad.net/ubuntu-phone/msg15131.html Is there any hooks that an app can use to hook into the lock screen? At least, if not shipped by default, you could give users a choice to set a different lock screen with an app. What is the documentation appropriate for this topic? (Can this be done im Python?) Similar for the SIP and XMPP integration: The platform must provide easy hooks to integrate any voice and video calling, as well as texting and instant messaging, for any service on the phone. That may make the phone (platform) really distinct on the market: Finally native integration instead of zillions of apps for practically one and the same purpose. Contacts and communication. Is there an official roadmap for the major "feature blocks" planned in, say, 2016? Something like this should then be on it. Otherwise we're just dreaming of things that will never happen.
