Unity API status update wk 13

 

Scopes

Finally, the new scopes landed on the device. Functionality wise they
are more or less on par with old scopes, however some functionality is
now accessible in a slightly different way due to the removal of home
scope and introduction of scope scope.

The landing of the new scopes only marks the first milestone, there are
still a lot of working items to be done including design work. Main
focus for the next couple of weeks will be on the click scope and with
that on departments, filters and the like. Second focus point will be on
finishing scopes lifecycle management and increasing robustness.


Indicators & Connectivity API

First iteration of connectivity API landed in trunk. Work on network
indicator to utilize the connectivity API not fully done yet, will
probably take another week.

Extending sound indicator to expose music player controls in greeter has
almost landed, we needed to revert last minute because of a crash bug
which is fixed by now. New landing attempt next week (beta freeze).

Work on the transfer indicator has been started but has not advanced a
whole lot yet.

Fixed a lot of bugs (around 20) for datetime, session and power
indicator, appmenu, dbusmenu and lightdm.


Infographics

Done from backend point of view, now working with UI guys to get the
front end. Landing will need to happen in coordinated manner to not
cause any regressions.


HUD

Fixed some more bugs also a crash bug. Went through the complete list of
bugs and verified those not being applicable any longer.


Misc

Helped ironing out some process-cpp issues
