GNOME:
- Various releases of GNOME 3.5.x; another one being released atm
- 3.5.x will at one point require a really new systemd (with
hibernate/sleep functionality; in the systemd announcement Lennart
said he'd explain soon in a blogpost)
- GNOME online accounts 3.5.x at one point will depend on something to
allow you to use the Microsoft Cloud thing (whatever the name is)
- GNOME online accounts can depend on Facebook, but doesn't do by
default. Think I might activate this
- GNOME is adding some kind of initial setup screen, think handled by
GDM. No details yet.
Cauldron:
- wait until new xorg is in cauldron (not testing)
- wait until new systemd (with udev) is in cauldron
- then move to 3.5.x and make GNOME require systemd
at same time: explicitly kill any ConsoleKit support
(some bits fall back to ConsoleKit, some bits don't.. supporting
sysvinit will go away with Mageia 3, and I rather prevent bugreports
from such configurations)
For Mageia 2:
- there are still various bugreports open. Help welcome.
- GNOME 3.4.2 should be provided as an update
Hopefully can
