nautilus Roadmap

Maintainers:

• Alexander Larsson
• Christian Neumair

What are your plans for GNOME 2.24 (next 4 months, before feature and UI freezes)?

• A column-wise view (already implemented)

• key binding support for Nautilus extensions
• tabbed interface (multiview branch, behind-the-scenes work mostly finished, needs UI review)

What are your plans for GNOME 2.26 (next year)?

• toolbar editor
• better list view interaction (depends on GTK+, cf. below)

Do you have plans for a future release?

Do you have any goals from 2.22 that were not achieved? Why?

Is there something that is really missing in our infrastructure or platform that would help you?

For "better list view interaction", improvements to GtkTreeView are required. I made some proposals for improving rubber banding selection in a gtk-devel-list email. We also need single-click activation inside GtkTreeView.

Do you have plans to work on other modules not maintained by you? What are they?

Do you have any GNOME-wide goals suggestions for the next releases?

GnomeThumbnail should be moved out of libgnomeui, maybe into GTK+.

In general, we should try to patronize concrete subprojects (like SoC, but architectural), because usually maintainers do not have time for implementing everything they need themselves.

Examples would be the aforementioned GTK+ tree view improvements.
