Laptop Storage

We have two alternatives here: a more traditional file and directory model and the goal system, the journal.

File model

  • Save images from a web page, using a context menu, activated by the right mouse button.
  • Insert images in the write activity using a file picker.

There are some features that we will not be able to implement using this model:

  • Renaming of files
  • Deletion of files
  • Copy of text snippets from the web to the write activity

Journal model

Clipboard

  • When dragging with the frame hidden you need to move the mouse a bit to be able to paste. Fix this.
  • Make drag of images from mozilla work.
  • Make drag of images to abi work.
  • Preview images in the rollover.
  • Briefly pop in and out the frame when a download is initiated or a copy or cut happens.
  • Mark the current selected clipboard object and allow to change it by clicking on it.
  • Copy new files to ~/Journal and name it from its title.

Journal activity

  • Entries renaming.
  • Startup the journal when clicking on the icon in the donut.

Shell

  • Let activities rename their journal entry title by an entry in the activity rollover

Reading

  • Open doc and odf files from the web browser in the write activity
  • Make pdf autopen in xbook
  • Language support splotchy, including Urdu (884)
  • new browser windows (Bug 515) and popups (899, 878, 542) confuse gecko
  • memory (860)
  • gmail gives warnings about scripts executing because the machine is so slow. Need to increase that timeout.

Writing

File model

  • Open and save buttons in abiword.
  • Make the file pickers point to the documents directory.
  • Size the file pickers sanely
  • Some theme tweaking for the olpc display.

Journal model

  • Autosave also by a timeout (now it saves on focus-out and on close).
  • Undo and Redo.

Open questions

  • What is the use case of an open button in xbook?
  • Should we really support rotation for Trial1?
  • I'm not convinced we need tables in abiword

Bugs that might be fixed already

Bugs that maybe we don't need to fix

  • configuration directory needs stable name (Bug 847)
  • mozilla cache (29)
