Title: zypper parallel dowloading of packages
openSUSE-11.3: Unconfirmed
Priority
Requester: Important
Requested by: Aris Karagiannidis (arkara)
Partner organization: openSUSE.org
Description:
Now, i think that this is already done with apt.
What should happen is that zypper should download packages
concurrently and when it does download them all, then it should install them
Business case (Partner benefit):
openSUSE.org: Faster package management

Title: Filter for Fold View Widget & Dolphin
openSUSE-11.3: Unconfirmed
Priority
Requester: Important
Requested by: John Moore (johnfm3)
Partner organization: openSUSE.org
Description:
The ability for a user to filter for files that the user or a group has permissions too. Perferably the group that the user is a member of.
Business case (Partner benefit):
openSUSE.org: In my example, I have 7 users that are joined to 4 groups (stored in LDAP) kids, preteens, teens, parents. On a NFS share, I have 105 movies, but 15 movies the members of the kids group can watch. Parents can watch all 105 movies. Its hard for members of the kids and preteen groups to quickly pick out which movie they can watch when there is 105 videos to browse thru. This gets worst when you add a Large Music collection of over 20,000. Move this to a small business enviorment, and you have a large public share that only has a small percentage of files that pertain to you. In the ideal world, the Administrator would have different shares for different groups, but in the work place things grow and dont get properly managed and relocated. When things do get move, users get pissed when things arent where they were. So typicly public shares get left alone and keep growing.

Title: Development versions of packages include in openSUSE release notes
openFATE: Unconfirmed
Priority
Requester: Important
Requested by: Peter Gumbrell (gumb)
Description:
With regard to the inclusion of packages in distros that are 'not intended for end users', and the recent controversies such as the KDE 4.0 release in openSUSE 11.0 (and probable future issues with such things as KOffice 2.0 in openSUSE 11.2), I propose a way to keep 'regular users' better informed of this advice, which is sometimes not dispensed with clarity or through the right channels. I have copied this suggestion to the forums for further feedback. I suggest that all packages known to be in an alpha, beta or other development state are noted as such in some single, central place. The Release Notes might be a good place for this, as it would allow last-minute inclusions, and also ensure the majority of users would be informed during the installation process. There wouldn't need to be too much detail, just a simple list with perhaps a brief, optional summary of the state of each relevant package. The below is my example of how it might read. There might be legal or technical implications to be taken into account. ==
Alpha, beta and development versions of software packages
openSUSE distribution releases sometimes include development versions of certain software packages. This can be due to a number of reasons, such as compatibility with other software or hardware. These programs may be lacking some features, designed for testing use, or may be unstable and not recommended for regular users. Other packages may be relatively stable, but labelled as 'beta' or 'development version' on an almost permanent basis, because of ongoing changes and improvements. Throughout the product lifecycle of openSUSE releases, updates to packages are made available through the 'Software Update' mechanism. From time to time, these may include final versions of packages previously provided as development versions in the original distribution. The following list summarizes packages contained in this release that are known to be 'development' versions. It is intended as a guide for users who might not wish to run unstable versions of software. The list is not exhaustive and there may be some omissions. Kaffeine 0.9pre2* - Latest development release. Included for better stability than alternative versions. K3B alpha3* - Latest development release. Included for better stability than alternative versions. KOffice 2.02* - Development release. Not intended for end users. Kompozer 0.8a4*** - Bugfix / development release, included for compatibility purposes. SeaMonkey 2.0RC2** - Bugfix release. Should be stable for most purposes. Thunderbird 3.0b4 - Bugfix release. Should be stable for most purposes. * Not included on GNOME Live CD ** Not included on KDE Live CD *** Included on DVD version only == Obviously, my own list is just a mock-up and probably incorrect anyway. Perhaps there would even be a way to automate the generation of this list by assessment of package names (rather hopeful I suppose). There could also be a link to a wiki page on opensuse.org, though this assumes users have an Internet connection and hence I don't see it as so practical. Is this idea practical or possible for 11.2?
