pitti, 2009-11-25: ready for review
fagan, 2009-11-27: sudoku telepathy integration hosted here: http://
seb128, 2009-11-25: looks good, approved
robert-ancell: Vinagre does not support RDP yet, see https:/
robert-ancell, 2009-12-04: Propose no action for Farmville. It is closed source, requires a Facebook login, we have no control on it. It could change/disappear at any time and us implicitly supporting it would give us no advantage. Existing Facebook users will aready know how to access it.
danny.piccirillo, 2009-12-04: Shouldn't PiTiVi be added now, so that it can be worked on before the final decision is made? Also, was Solang ever considered to replace F-Spot? And finally, shouldn't there be some guidelines as to what applications can be in the Features section of the software center (should use gstreamer when applicable, should be gnome-friendly in general, etc)
P.S. Shouldn't there be a better way to have discussions and leave comments on blueprints?
fagan, 2010-01-07: I asked for suggestions for the suggested applications for the software center on my blog and got a good few http://
amano, 2010-01-18: Those shall be featured that most people woud install anyway: *p7zip-full *Flash (Sun Java/OpenJDK) *Java *Gimp *Adobe Reader *Those gnome games removed for lucid *Thunderbird *Restriced Codecs (if possible)?
djsiegel, 2010-03-09: Aisleriot "Select Game..." UI review: Didn't see an obvious way to improve the "Select Game..." dialog. Good alternative is to give Select Game a sub-menu listing all games; a better alternative is to build a better Select Game... dialog that pulls in game descriptions from Help.
