---|---|---|---|
Software Installer - better app data | Ryan Lerch | Underway, looking at making part of Fedora packaging guidelines | The Application installer is the primary method for our users to find new software. Having good application installer metadata for all Fedora software meant to be installed with the software installer is thus crucial for our end user experience. https://fedorahosted.org/fpc/ticket/414 |
Wayland keyboard layouts | Rui Matos | DONE | |
Wayland dnd | Benjamin Otte | DONE https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=697855 | Drag and Drop support is another area where we do not want to regress as we move to Wayland |
Wayland - Xwayland | Adam Jackson/Jasper St Pierre | DONE | We need X support both for legacy applications and we will also keep relying on certain X technologies for the core desktop for a transition period |
Wayland - clutter-gtk/subsurface | Bastien Nocera | DONE | https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=695737 and https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=736564 |
Wayland - Colour management | Richard Hughes | DONE | We have a lot of users who rely on our great colour management support, like artists and animators. This is another area where we do not want to risk regressing with the Wayland switch |
Wayland - GDM integration / session handling | Ray Strode/Jasper St Pierre | DONE | As we phase in Wayland we want users to be able to freely switch between the running an X session and a Wayland session. |
Wayland basic HiDPI display support | Owen Taylor | DONE | Feature-parity with X hidpi support, mixed-monitor still outstanding |
Multimonitor - better vertical stacking | Florian Muellner | DONE | A lot of developers and sysadmins use multimonitor setups. We need to have best of class handling of these kind of setups. |
Multimonitor - remember which monitor windows were on | Florian Muellner | DONE | A lot of developers and sysadmins use multimonitor setups. We need to have best of class handling of these kind of setups. |
Terminal - theme changes (white-on-black) | Debarshi Ray | DONE | We might need to tweak /etc/DIR_COLOURS also. |
Terminal - bring back transparency | Debarshi Ray | DONE patch in Fedora | A lot of users like this feature for a varity of reasons. Upstream not interested so we will maintain it as a Fedora patch. |

Boxes - snapshots | Zeeshan Ali | DONE https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=710306 | |
full touch support in GTK+ | Carlos Garnacho | DONE | Modern laptops and all-in-one desktops are being shipped with touchscreens. If we do not have decent touchscreen support this will start to count as a disadvantage for our product and platform. Applications needs to be made touch aware on a case by case basis as makes sense. |
Rygel, Chromecast etc., firewall interaction | Tomas Woerner and Bastien Nocera | DONE, http://www.hadess.net/2014/06/firewalls-and-per-network-sharing.html | We want desktop services to work flawlessly for users without having to fiddle with the firewall settings. Especially as the firewall getting in the way has a tendency to make people simply disable the firewall. |
Totem UI refresh | Bastien Nocera | DONE | |
HIG Guidelines | Allan Day | DONE http://blogs.gnome.org/aday/2014/08/21/new-human-interface-guidelines-for-gnome-and-gtk/ | Having a good HIG available is important to help developers who want to target our product be able to produce a nicely integrated experience. Our goal here it to make a compelling open source desktop that can stand on its own in comparison with Windows and MacOS X. |
Wayland - Input devices | Peter Hutterer | DONE, Libinput released and used | |
Include devassistant | DONE | ||
OverlayFS | jwb/dhowells | DONE | This is one of the features we need to be able to do desktop containers in a nice and efficient way. This will in fact also be very useful for any kind of containers so the expectation is that once we manage to land this all Docker containers will use it. |

Kalev Lember | ongoing cleanup File triggers are enabled in F24 rawhide. Need to actually use this functionality now. | We want to avoid requiring scripts to be called from RPMS as far as possible as any such manual steps increase the risk for bugs and issues happening during upgrades. Working on removing the need for such things will increase overall system robustness and make upgrades less of a challenge. It also makes our updates more alike to image based installations.
