System Apps Status Jan-10-2013

 

?Hi Guys,
I will be sending out weekly status updates of the progress the System
Apps team is making. Here is the report for last week.

*Telephony Services: *
* landed support in history-service, ofono-qt and telepathy-ofono to
support the newly added multi-party calling and delivery reporting
features that recently landed in ofono
* additional unit tests added to telephony-service
* in process of specifying details of telephony stack when greeter is
run as a separate (lightdm) user. Testing and reviewing MR provided by
mterry.  Most likely separate instances of user-space telephony services
will need to be run as lightdm user.

*Messaging App: *
* MR under review for adding status, retry and delivery confirmation of
SMS messages
* Work in progress to support multi-recipient SMS messages
* Review of updated design spec completed

*Dialer App: *
* debugging to fix crash during autopillot tests:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dialer-app/+bug/1257844
* debugging to fix regression with greeter not properly promoting
dialer-app on phone call receive
* Work beginning to support call hold and call switch UI
* Review of updated design spec completed

*Media Player App: *
* MR's approved to support improved desktop mode functionality: file
choose dialog, keyboard support for ff, rew, play, pause, and fullscreen.

*Webbrowser App: *
* additional implementation of QML API's to Oxide such that a Oxide
based WebView can be created with feature parity to WebKitWebView
* bug triaging

*Camera App: *
* MR submitted to convert camera-app to a click package, testing in
process.

*Gallery App: *
* MR submitted to convert gallery-app to a click package, testing in
process.  
* Need to changes in content-hub to land to support launching gallery as
a click before this can be merged
* Fixes made to support not running in fullscreen by default on desktop
* MR in progress to add state saving support to gallery, such that when
the app is killed by the system it will be restored properly to it's
prior state when resuming.
* This work has uncovered some bugs/missing features in the SDK state
saving code which is being addressed by the SDK team

*Address Book App: *
* Work in progress to support state saving. Similar issues as
gallery-app state saving.
* Testing and review of converting this package to a click package is
underway
 
*Other: *
* various fixing and debugging of autopilot failures
* helped debug issue with OSK staying open after an application killed
from command line which was cauing autopilot failures:
