Desktop

• Alpha-3 burn-down chart

• Release notes for the alpha-2 feature set: DesktopExperienceTeam/MaverickAlpha2ReleaseNotes

Milestoned Features for alpha-3:

• dx-m-app-menubar

  • Continued to fix application bugs in GTK including missing menus and icons

• dx-m-gtk-enhancements

  • Nothing to report

• dx-m-sound-menu-v2

  • New transport widget added. Drawn with Cairo, it comes very close to replicating Otto's design (thanks Mirco!).
  • Applications which register with the menu will now be saved in a cache file provided they inform their libindicate server of the whereabouts of their Desktop file.
    • This enables the menu to present the player as if it were launched. By clicking on the name of the app in the new custom title widget (with new icon), the application will be launched. The ubuntu-mono package (0.1.9) contains the icon which is used to sit along side the application (sound_icon). The whole area of theme respecting design needs some attention.

• dx-m-indicator-me

  • Nothing to report
