Hi there, Over the past week, I've worked on the panel to make sure the fallback mode would be a bit more maintainable in 3.x. This includes a port to GSettings, and more (see below).
Also a bit of a warning: fredp wants me to finish the "minimize difference between fallback & shell" bug, which possibly means a few other strings (that are all in gnome-shell, in the user menu). But I don't want to block things on this. For translators, the impact is: + 13 fuzzy strings + 4 new strings Of those 17 strings, 15 are in schemas (so really not visible, except in dconf-editor; and l10n.gnome.org has magic to let you ignore those), and 2 are error messages displayed in extremely unlikely cases: "Cannot create initial panel layout.\n" "Launcher location is not set, cannot load launcher\n" The rationale for the (admittedly way too late) change is that gnome-panel has a strong compatibility story in general (2.32.x can load a 2.0.x configuration), and this comes with a price, given the way the panel is configurable. So for 3.0, we don't want to have to deal with gconf configuration; which means the port to GSettings is quite important. The other important changes in the branch I have are the following (they do not impact translations): - Remove popup menu for items in applications menu - Remove drawers - Remove compatibility with 2.x configuration - Start 3.0 panel with brand new configuration - Drop per-applet Lock setting - Support 3.0 lockdown settings - Correctly display "Lock screen" menu item - Make it easy for applets to store their settings in GSettings It's all in http://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-panel/log/?h=wip/3.0-freeze-break (I didn't cc gnome-doc-list, btw, based on feedback from Shaun) Again, this all happens way too late and I'm very well aware of that. But I think this is all important for the 3.0 fallback story. Is release team happy with merging those changes?
