Please test this release and report all the bugs you find that we are able to fix them in time. A friendly [[BugSquad]] will be available to triage those bugs accordingly and the developers can never have enough bug food. If you have non-bug feedback about features you can use the sugar-devel mailing list to share it with us.
From a user point of view we want to highlight the following changes that have been made:
From a user point of view we want to highlight the following changes that have been made:
=== Naming alert on journal entry creation ===
=== Journal ===
The journal's search and browsing capabilities are less useful if all entries are named the same regardless of their actual content or
The translation of the dates in the Journal is working now again. Please verify with your favorite language that this works for you. A 'Clear search' button has been added to the 'No matching entries' message, following Eben's specification. Also the space used and left is now displayed in the volume palette in the Journal.
==== Journal entry palette ====
The journal entry palette has seen some great improvements. We have a 'View Details' option that brings you to the details of the entry directly. Also the icon for the file transfer was designed and added by Gary C. Martin. Furthermore you do not need to go to the detail view any more to select the activity you want to start or resume the entry with - this option is now available in the palette as well.

=== Naming Alert ===
When you stop an activity from the Frame the activity is resumed and one can refine the activity metadata in the Naming Alert. As well a saving error of the activity will not prevent one any more from closing the activity due to the Naming Alert.
=== Palettes ===
There were some positioning issues of the palette that got fixed. Please report back any issues you still find. Another palette related fix was that on right click on an Access Point icon we do reveal the palette as it is the behavior in all the other places in the UI and do not try to connect to the Access Point.
=== Keep error when displaying a file in Browse, Read, ImageViewer ===
This is one of my favorite fixes as this has been broken for quite a while. When trying to display for example an image in Browse or the ImageViewer there was an keep error when closing the activity.
=== Resume activity ===
Last release we added the ability to resume an activity by default instead of creating a new instance. The list of the available entries in the palette when you hover of the activity in the home view is now updated directly. As this is an interesting new feature, we would like to hear about any issues you might have with it and positive feedback of course as well.
=== Control Panel ===
We now hide any OLPC-specific fields on non-xo machines. For example in the 'About my Computer' section we display the build dependent on the distribution (i.e. Fedora). As the Power section was only relevant on the XO, it is hidden in non OLPC distributions.
=== Frame Devices ===
Right-clicking on the speaker device icon does not mute the speakers anymore.
=== Clipboard ===
Several fixes were made to the detection of images dragged and dropped to the clipboard in the Frame.
Thanks everyone for your great contributions!
