Hi, folks. Just a question - since GNOME 3 is being delayed and
won't
ship in F14, does it make sense to have a few apps (but not many) ported
to GTK+ 3 for F14? I can see it causing more trouble along the lines of
the gnome-python2-desktop package. Would it be better to move them back
to GTK+ 2 and postpone porting to GTK+ 3 until F15? What's the plan in
general for backing off from 2.90.x versions of GNOME bits? Thanks!
I discussed this with Richard Hughes, and a number of other people at
GUADEC, and the current plan is to ship what's already ported, and to
make sure that what wasn't ported works as expected.
This will obviously need to be discussed with Matthias, who has a better
idea of how we want to spend our time for F14, and whether a GTK+ 3.x
pre-release dependency is a good idea.
The short version is:
- ship what we have already ported
- spend time polishing the control-center and other ported applications
- ship most of 2.32 for the rest of the desktop
This would be a restrictive schedule for us, but for most applications
we would have support from upstream (or are the upstream).
Cheers
