Sugar Roadmap

Just a random dump. Perhaps items should be given an estimated effort, ranked by importance, put into a hierarchy, linked to trac tickets, distributed in OLPC milestones...

• Key bindings for ebook mode?
• Cursor auto-hiding. (Trac #2954)
• New Home view and Frame design.

• Modal dialogs.
• Fade out effect for modal dialogs.
• Improve python activity startup.
• Improve Sugar boot time.
• Improve memory usage of python activities.
• Reduce memory usage of the shell: perhaps merging the journal and shellservice processes?
