Same, I think we should give it some exposure.

Indeed, if there are particular problems to fix for 17.10 it would be
good to supply fixes for them.

Agreed on the above.

I think the new UI is great, but hard to tell if the stable release
will be released fast enough to entry on Artful. Said that, I think we
use new UI.

I've been using the new one for a while and I think it works well enough
to go with it.

Note that I reported a few problems upstream and didn't get any
triaging/comment/reply/fix, we shouldn't block on that but we might need

From new gnome-control-center (network-panel):


1) "All users may connect to this network" has been renamed to "make 
available to other users" but for me it's not working for any other 
display manager except gdm. Even it is checked, lightdm can't connect 
to network at login-screen.


2) "Automatically connect-to vpn when using this wifi" is also missing, 
I don't know how to do than in new panel.


3) The old proxy settings of wifi has been moved to somewhere else. (it 
my be happened before 3.24, I didn't notice).Does this mean I can't 
set proxies per connection? Though, proxies applied system-wide are 
working


4) At the moment,  many tabs appear disabled for me...so can't really 
tell if above issues are bugs or regressions.



Thanks.

Speaking of which do you know if upstream is keeping a list of
issues/regressions/missing features (is there any?) for the new version?
Like should the upstream bugs be labelled or tagged in a specific way?

Default App: old or new shell for gnome-control-center?

2017-08-09 Thread Jeremy Bicha
gnome-control-center 3.25.90 is now available for testing in the
GNOME3 Staging PPA for artful.

The big change is a switch to the new "shell" that has been under
development for a year. Instead of an overview page, top level
settings are shown in a sidebar. This fixes several issues with the
old shell (overview labels being cut off, difficult to add or
reorganize top-level settings because of lack of space, inability to
resize the window, etc.).

There are several minor UI issues with the new design and hardly
anyone has used it yet. Although GNOME is technically at UI Freeze,
it's likely that gnome-control-center will get several freeze
exceptions to fix some of those issues.

Please try the new version and file bugs at
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/ for issues that you see!

I added a distro patch to install the old shell too (it's still built
upstream, just not installed by default). You can run it with
gnome-control-center-alt . It's not possible to run both at the same
time.

We'll need to decide whether we want to use the new shell for 17.10 or
keep the old one.

Thanks,
Jeremy Bicha
