No, feature proposal is only about platform-wide features. That's why https://mail.gnome.org/archives/devel-announce-list/2013-March/msg00001.html said "discuss new platform-wide features". :) You're not expected to discuss every single feature of your module in public. That's also why the 3.7 schedule had two related items: * End of new feature proposals period for 3.8 (in 10/2012) * Feature Freeze: new functionality is implemented now (in 02/2013) Same plans for 3.9, but if the language could be improved and be more clear, ideas are welcome. andre -- Andre Klapper | [email protected] http://blogs.gnome.org/aklapper/ _______________________________________________ foundation-list mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-list
