Re: gnome 2.24 & 2.26 roadmap: what features you looking forward to?
Biggest features for me:
Empathy will finally be included. I understand the reasons it wasn't included sooner, but it does provide some awesome opportunities.
PA integration is also fantastic. PA has the potential to pull together multimedia on the Linux platform. With proper implementation, it could be far more than just a sound server.
Better desktop integration for Cheese. I love that program (save for one irritating bug, which I think is fixed in this release, too) and would love to see it used more fully.
Broader use of GVFS. This will mean a more cohesive experience, and hopefully more innovation as its benefits are seen across the platform.
Also, the inclusion of Clutter is a promising sign. This could mean richer UIs in the short term, and possibly broader improvements to GTK+ itself in the long term.
I'm not all that thrilled with tabbed Nautilus, to be honest. What I'd love would be split view. That'd be something. As it is, tabs may actually slow me down. Another thing I'd like to see in Nautilus (and please, let me know if it's possible now) is the ability to truncate file names to give even spacing. Files with long names throw the entire display into chaos.
I don't really mind, and it's starting to get to me.
