[Blueprint xubuntu-c-development] Xubuntu 18.10: Development

 

Blueprint changed by Sean Davis:

Whiteboard changed:
  Xubuntu Core (Base):
  - URL: https://code.launchpad.net/~xubuntu-dev/debian-cd/xubuntu-base
+   - https://code.launchpad.net/~xubuntu-dev/debian-cd/xubuntu-base/+merge/347318
  - URL: https://code.launchpad.net/~xubuntu-dev/livecd-rootfs/xubuntu-base
  - URL: https://code.launchpad.net/~xubuntu-dev/ubuntu-cdimage/xubuntu-base
  
  Pidgin theme:
  - URL: https://github.com/shimmerproject/pidgin-elementary
  - Pidgin will require patching to support installing this theme globally
  
  bzr-to-git migration (DONE):
  - All Xubuntu Bazaar branches were migrated to Git to have a consistent development workflow.
  
  lp-to-xfce migration:
  - We develop two Xfce applications in Launchpad. Migrating these back upstream should boost contributions.
  
  Xfce 4.13 components to include (https://pad.ubuntu.com/NMSlV657ha):
  - thunar (several plugins yet to be ported)
  - xfdesktop4 (with thunar)
  - xfce4-appfinder
  - xfconf (maybe, will start transition)
  - xfce4-panel (requires xfconf)
  - xfce4-settings (requires xfconf)
  - xfce4-session (maybe)
  
  Improved developer documentation. Useful topics to cover:
  - Configuring development environment for Xfce and Xubuntu
  - Debian packaging for Xubuntu packages (including gbp)
  - Launchpad git workflow (WIP https://wiki.xubuntu.org/devel/git)
  - Release process for applications (similar to the Xfce docs)
  - Standard SRU practices to backport fixes to LTS
