Sure see below: - gnome-bluetooth and gnome-packagekit (moved from Core to Utils): when I think about GNOME's Core modules I certainly don't think about installing apps or connecting to bluetooth. Both are important, sure, but not as having a session or a desktop shell or a greeter. And as the name implies, a core is not meant to be alone, but still something small. - empathy, epiphany, totem and nautilus (moved from Utils to Apps): plain and simple, I see them as full-blown apps (not like utility-like apps like baobab or gnome-disk-utility for example) - sushi and vino (moved from Utils to Backends): both, for me, fall into the category of "plugins"/"backend configuration"/"settings", so not a utility per-se but something that other apps rely on (hence backends) given we don't have a category named "App helpers" or something better worded, but I hope you get the idea. - file-roller, gnome-clocks, gnome-color-manager, gnome-initial-setup, gnome-power-manager (moved from Apps to Utils): just like I see empathy as an app, I don't think about these modules as apps. I think about them (mostly what in Utils) as transitory apps, something you use to reach your goal, but not the app for your goal. Say you want to upload the images you get from a mail, you open the mail with evolution, you extract the tar.gz archive, you quickly browse the images and finally you upload with epiphany the images to your blog: in this text, for me I used two apps (evo and epiphany) and used two utilities (file-roller and eog). - rygel (moved from Apps to Backends): it doesn't have, at least that I'm aware (prove me wrong please) any kind of UI, so by no means its an app for me. - mutter (moved from Backends to Core Libraries): ok, for this one I don't have a really strong opinion about, but somehow, given how the modules are currently split I would say that it fits better on Core Libraries than in backends... - folks and gnome-video-effects (moved from Extra Libraries to Backends): both are powering/helping other apps, and to some that could be a rough definition of "backend" :) > > Also, I just ran my liedetector script with the following results: > http://paste.ubuntu.com/5719536/ Really curious about the "liedetector" what's that? Could you share it? If I understand correctly it's a detector of modules that are missing or non part of what we have in damned-lies and (just a guess) what's on jhbuild release set? I think it would make a lot of sense to have it as a django command in damned-lies and make it run like once per week/month and send a mail to this mailing list about changes. We need to fix the man-power on damned-lies though... > Seems like we have to move in a few modules: > bijiben > clutter-gtk // not entirely convinced the usefulness of translating > this, but whatever, it has a po directory > gnome-shell-extensions > gnome-weather > grilo > grilo-plugins > libgsf > libsecret > tracker For bijiben and gnome-weather I'm not sure about their status (the same could be said about gnome-music for example) when are they considered part of "the release set"? Maybe we should send a mail on d-d-l asking about the official/canonical place where to look what's in and what's not in (not to be discriminatory on who's out, just to clarify as for where do we must translate to still be considered and active and supported language). clutter-gtk I think is going to be deprecated, but that's just a thought on top of my head, so I'm not sure it's worth adding (probably, again, asking on d-d-l). grilo, grilo-plugins and tracker (maybe even libgsf) probably are runtime dependencies, so everything works if they are not there, but something is shown if they are around, which I would say falls out of "the release set" for me. Again, a d-d-l mail would help clarify their status. Finally libsecret for sure, good catch! > And remove these: > libcryptui > gnome-power-manager libcryptui is getting replaced by libsecret or so, so no problem, but why do you think gnome-power-manager should no longer be around? I'm puzzled on that one. Thanks a lot for taking care of this!
