- | 5uune6 | + | ====== Xfce Session Manager 4.8 Roadmap ====== |
+ | |||
+ | Below is a list of features I plan to complete for 4.8. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The "Status" | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===== Session Storage ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | See [[dev: | ||
+ | |||
+ | Status: 5% complete. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===== Session Editor ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | The autostart editor and session editor in the settings dialog should be merged into one to avoid confusion. | ||
+ | |||
+ | This work depends on the "Session Storage" | ||
+ | |||
+ | Status: 0% complete. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===== Power Management ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | How xfce4-session handles power management is a bit of a mess. It can use HAL to shutdown, reboot, suspend, and hibernate, or fall back to a sudo-based helper for shutdown and reboot. | ||
+ | |||
+ | I'd like to get the HAL-based suspend/hibernate related code out of xfce4-session, | ||
+ | |||
+ | However, handling of rebooting and shutting down is a bit more complicated. | ||
+ | |||
+ | There' | ||
+ | feeling here is that CK should be the preferred method for reboot/ | ||
+ | |||
+ | Status: 90% complete. Some details might need to be improved. Needs testing. | ||
+ | |||
+ | <del>===== SM Properties ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Refactor how SM properties are stored by the manager. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Status: 100% complete. | ||
+ | |||
+ | <del>===== PolicyKit Support ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | For reboot and shutdown, systems will start requiring authorization via PolicyKit. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Note: Apparently PK is undergoing an API/architecture rewrite. I won't be working on this until that has sabilized, so this feature may be postponed to 4.10. | ||
