= GNOME =
We’re working on adding captive portal detection to Artful. We think it
would be good if there were an option in the privacy settings to enable
or disable this. We’ve done some initial work as preparation - some
patches have been submitted to Network Manager’s upstream to enable an
option to be created. They are currently awaiting review.

= ISO cleanups =
Work continues to move deprecated components out of the desktop ISO and
to universe. This week's list includes indicator-application and
indicator-messages.

= Snaps =
Updated versions of gedit, gnome-sudoku, quadrapassel, gnome-dictionary,
gnome-calculator, and gnome-clocks are in the edge channel of the store
now built using the gnome-3-24 content interface.

= Video & Audio =
A workaround has been uploaded for GDM which was blocking the a2dp high
quality bluetooth profile from being activated in the user session.

= Updates =
  - Libreoffice 5.3.4, with a workaround for an i386 kernel issue which
    had been blocking the previous version.
  - GStreamer 1.12.2.
  - Evolution 3.24.2.
  - The nplan autopkgtest got fixed, unblocking the network-manager update.

= Unity 7 =
16.04 continues to be supported, and we've been working on some
improvements for Unity that are targeted there. In particular there are
improvements currently being developed to the low graphics mode that
will benefit users of low powered systems and VMs.

= QA =
GNOME Software has a documented test plan now.
