Sugar demo 3

The target date for completion is 21 July 2006.

TODO

• Refactor window management for the new design. Get rid of xembed and use matchbox.
• Merge the presence window and the chat -> buddies window
• Merge task switching and the everyone page activities list into my home window. Experiment visual ideas.
• Refactor activity sharing to follow the new "default on" model
• Show the buddies window (with chat collapsed) for a few seconds when creating or activating an activity.
• Write the new "..." menu. Web search should be moved there.
• Write my blog, probably just private for demo 3
• Turn the presence service in a DBUS service, to simplify the code and decrease network usage.
• Fix the misuse of zeroconf service types.
• Define an API that makes straight forward the most common case: activity specific service browing.
• It should not be necessary to write a Shell per each activity to manage multiple activities in the same process.
• Abstract activity construction.
• Move the one-to-one chat listener inside the shell
• Improve multi cast reliability. The use case is out of school small groups of kids.
• Start defining contributors development tools (build, coding, testing)
