[New: openFATE 309711] do not quit "Install/Remove Software" after it's done
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 20 Dec '10

Feature added by: Thiago Sayao (sayao) Feature #309711, revision 1 Title: do not quit "Install/Remove Software" after it's done openSUSE-11.3: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Thiago Sayao (sayao) Description: It's a litte weird that when the software manager finishes installing the new softwares (packages) it quits automatically. I often want to intall more packages or see what happened during the install. Most of the times i don't watch all the installation process. I just minimize it and go do something else. I just want to come back and see what if the process went all fine, but it quits with no messages. I don't know if there's a reason for this behaviour, but i think it would be nicer if it comes back to the package selection screen with a message. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/309711

Feature added by: jpxviii jpxviii (jpxviii) Feature #310323, revision 1 Title: Oficial Browser in Distributions based Open Source Chromium Hackweek V: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important openSUSE-11.4: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: jpxviii jpxviii (jpxviii) Description: Browser-based Open Source Chromium It would be interesting, useful and educational (for some) if you can take the open source Chromium and create or modify it to have a final version google chrome browser alternative to all users with different expertise can be used. That is perhaps to create an opensource project collaboration between various communities (distributions and applications) that is an alternative to Google Browser without the closed source, may also be taken up ideas and code of Mozilla Firefox. Some friends like the idea of fusion Chromium and Firefox code. http://sites.google.com/a/chromium.org/dev/ http://sites.google.com/a/chromium.org/dev/Home http://www.google.es/chrome -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/310323

Feature added by: Kálmán Kéménczy (kkemenczy) Feature #308307, revision 1 Title: Developers help translators with screenshots openSUSE-11.3: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: Kálmán Kéménczy (kkemenczy) Description: Translating GUI is not easy task. This is not a simple translation but localization. We would like to provide usable interface for non-english users. Developers could help a lot if they could create screenshots to help translator's work. This screenshots could upload somewhere in opensuse filesystem infrastructure and developers could put the screenshot URL in the source code as translation comment. Translators could easliy find out the right phrase, can coose right hot keys and this could speed up the translation and leverage the quality. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/308307

[New: openFATE 310683] Simple Scan (simple-scan)
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 20 Dec '10

20 Dec '10

Feature added by: Nelson Marques (ketheriel) Feature #310683, revision 1 Title: Simple Scan (simple-scan) openSUSE-11.4: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Nelson Marques (ketheriel) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Easy Scan - Is a very pretty straight away tool for scanning stuff. I understand we ship xsane by default, though offering both would be probably a good choice. For me and my hardware, (I need to scan a couple of documents once in a while) it does do the trick with a few simple clicks. This is very helpful if you are in a rush (usually if I scan something is because I am in a rush). It just works. It is on Factory and openSUSE 11.3, could be default installed on 11.4. It makes all the sense within a GNOME Desktop oriented installation.. http://launchpad.net/simple-scan Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: Why we should consider seriously: * It most likely would meet the requirements of a wider audience; * Because it's already maintained and packaged for current version and Factory; * Because it's more user friendly than xsane and offer better integration in GNOME Desktops; * Because it's a stabilized packaged it's free software; One remark: this isn't about removing xsane, but instead provide simple-scan as default for GNOME Desktop. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/310683

Feature added by: Jedi Beeftrix (Jedibeeftrix) Feature #310958, revision 1 Title: Amarok 2.4 for opensuse 11.4 openSUSE-11.4: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Jedi Beeftrix (jedibeeftrix) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: as per the first beta announcement: http://amarok.kde.org/en/releases/2.4/beta/1 "This new release brings a lot of new features. The following features are critical and need a lot of testing to make sure they are top-notch for final release at the beginning of 2011. We need your help with this, so try them out and report any problems you find! * Transcoding: Now you can convert tracks from one file format to another when copying from the file browser to the local collection. We will expand this to media devices in future releases. * Shiny new collection scanner, rewritten from scratch - it should now detect compilations in a more robust way * Writing back to tags: there is now an option to have Amarok write statistics and album covers to the files directly, so you can save your play counts and tags in the files themselves. The following new features are included as well: * The ability to show and hide the menu bar * Mass-tagging UI using Musicbrainz * The ability to use iPod Touch 3G and possibly newer devices * A new applet for guitar and bass tab information * A map and calendar view for the upcoming events applet * A new Playdar collection that lets you listen to music provided by a local Playdar service and much more.

[New: openFATE 310909] Bibliography management system

Feature added by: Cristea Bogdan (Bogdanc23) Feature #310909, revision 1 Title: Bibliography management system Education Li-f-e: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Desirable openSUSE-11.4: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: Cristea Bogdan (bogdanc23) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: aigaion is a web-based bibliography management system. Its functionality is similar to jabref, but the main advantage is that it allows to share and simultaneously access the bibliography database (which is managed with MySQL). The programming language is PHP. I found this system highly desirable to be included at least in openSUSE Life if not in openSUSE distribution. The main target for aigaion is the research community.
