GNOME 2.26.3 will be released on July 1st. GNOME 2.28 in September.

Take a look, test & help out, get things done now instead of postponing
plus being surprised of a sudden freeze that has always been mentioned
in http://live.gnome.org/TwoPointTwentyseven . ;-)
Please do speak up if there are important bugs that are not listed here.

Also please keep in mind to clean up your modules for GNOME3. See
http://www.gnome.org/~fpeters/299.html for the status of your module.

How is this a blocker ? I know that debian thinks it is a good idea to
restart the bus, but everybody else pretty much agrees it is crazy to
support that...

At this point, unlikely to happen for 2.18.

Note that PolicyKit-gnome is going to be phased out when we bump the
PolicyKit dependency to the 1.0 api. David will be sending mail about
that shortly.

I have yet to see a good reason to treat D-Bus differently from other
daemons. It’s not as if it was complicated to reconnect to the daemon
when it is restarted.

The moment the bus disappears you lose all the clients. It's easy to
get into an inconsistent state or lock yourself to a defunct desktop
where nothing works and you are not able to log out.

How about adding this one? (empathy proxy support)
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=492076

Ubuntu qualifies it as "important"
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/empathy/+bug/304889

Fedora has a list of blocker bugs for F12:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=494985

And proxy support is one of them (although it's a specific one)
http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16034

Most of the regressions (features) were committed, but as you said, we
aren't close to zero. I need to position some Maildir stuff higher prio
here than the rest. I would be closing them for GNOME 2.28.0

There have been multiple fixes, but unfortunate that its not completely
fixed. There is surely lapse somewhere, that we need to close in.

We probably need to position Anjal well. Its currently in gnome git. But
need to see how to position both.
