Ok, I realize how important this is, but I really think that this task needs to be carried by several people, as it impacts different components in the system. What do we need to do: 1 Fix async D-Bus methods. I'm quite lost on this. Calls made or processed asynchronously won't return to the client. The call is received correctly by the service, and the server-side callback is called. But the client never gets a reply. This is the only message in the logs: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken. Sync calls work fine, tested using the same dbus connection. I'm cc'ing Robert in the hope that he will find someone who can help debug this one. 2 Integrate correctly in Rainbow. Michael pointed some problems with the patch, but I don't really know rainbow's architecture well enough to make a decision on that. 3 Make sure this doesn't introduce holes in the security framework. I know basically nothing about security. For getting "something working" we just need to fix 1. 2 and 3 are needed to get it into a release. Any ideas?
