Shawn,
I sent this out a while ago, but have not got any response, not sure if
it got lost in the general email switch over.
We'd like to support sensible behavior for the on disc format in the
desktop.
- Clicking on a p5p file in nautilus
We should add p5p as a new mime type to the desktop and have PM launch
with this file as a param. PM should then add the Publishers this
archive contains for the session and allow the user to browse/ search
the Publishers as they can do with any network Publisher.
p5p does not seem to be currently recognized by Nautilus, which is good
as it means its not in use on the current desktop. Googling for this
extension it does appear to be used by the audio production software
called Project 5 LE, but as this is Windows only we should be fine.

- Mounting a usb drive with a p5p file on it
We should have PM autostart with the path to this p5p on the mounted
media and as above setup the Publishers in the archive.
To do this you need an autoopen file on the media with the path to the
archive (see http://library.gnome.org/devel/autostart-spec/#id2457067 ).
Who creates the autoopen file? Should this be an option when creating
the archive?
(7067: GUI to support update from removable media)
Thanks.
JR
