=== Actions ===
==== Window manager ====
* Make the frame a set of panel windows. We will have to keep the current hinting as an option until we decide to drop matchbox.
* Support the standard application icon hints. We should evaluate if it's practical and possible to use it also for activities, my current feeling is that it isn't.
* Figure out a good semantic to be able to fullscreen activities in a standard window manager like metacity. The fullscreen hint is apparently not good enough. See [[WindowManagement]].
* Support standard .desktop files in the home screen ring.
==== Datastore ====
* Expose a posix interface to read and write from the datastore, a la [http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Olpcfs Olpcfs].
=== Status ===
* Wrote down some general goals. There might be more that I'm forgetting.
* Sayamindu is drafting a proposal to send to the metacity mailing list to provide an hint for our fullscreen-but-not-really-so activity windows.
