I'm not sure what you mean by "not even considered for release just yet". If it wasn't released, Friends couldn't even run. The UI toolkit has landed in raring and we are strongly encouraging app developers to use it to make new apps for Ubuntu. It may have some rough edges, but non-LTS releases are specifically intended for testing these kinds of new things, so that we can get them into good shape for the next LTS release, which will be 14.04. We appreciate that you've identified these issues for us, but it's not helpful to say that this is premature or should have been held back: 13.04 and 13.10 are specifically for testing these things and getting the feedback. As I mentioned on the other bug, if you don't want to participate in testing things that may not be perfect, you should be using the most recent LTS instead.
Yes, the new Friends app is missing some features that old Gwibber had. They will be reimplemented sooner or later (definitely before the next LTS). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1165170 Title: Friends offers no way to change notification settings To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/friends/+bug/1165170/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
