[maemo-developers] [maemo-developers] Unresolved issues (Week 46)

[From: Tommi Komulainen]

Here is a list of issues raised on this list I think have not been
concluded so far, in no particular order. The easiest way to get off the
list is to provide answers, but you can also try convincing me other
ways.

This is an attempt to improve our communication by providing a short
summary reminder for busy people to act on. I'll try to keep up with the
experiment for a few weeks and see what happens.


      * http://maemo.org/pipermail/maemo-developers/2006-October/005760.html
        Keeping the softkeypad from going away.
        6th mention
        
        "How can you keep the softkeypad from going away in a hildon
        application written in python?"

      * http://maemo.org/pipermail/maemo-developers/2006-October/005797.html
        building an application with custom kernel-headers
        5th mention
        
        gcc (/scratchbox/compilers/bin/sb_gcc_wrapper) can't find a
        definition from custom kernel-headers? Works with pure arm
        compiler.

        End-user roadmap?
        5th mention
        
        What's the future with the 770? When is the next Maemo or IT
        (2006) OS release planned? When are end users going to see an
        update?
        
        (Software update was released 2nd November. No mention of
        roadmap.)

        Maemo and Ubuntu Edgy: Is it safe?
        (USB API changed in Edgy. As a result the flasher stopped
        working.)
        5th mention
        
        "Why is the flasher not open source?"
        
        (One possible explanation is the cold flashing feature which
        might require (possibly TI proprietary) ROM code:
        http://maemo.org/pipermail/maemo-developers/2006-October/005990.html)

      * http://maemo.org/pipermail/maemo-developers/2006-November/006027.html
        Scary message at the end of flashing
        3nd mention

        wide character -- what does that mean?

      * http://maemo.org/pipermail/maemo-developers/2006-October/005985.html
        MMC - multiblock writes
        3nd mention

        2nd mention
        
        Is there any way to upload extras packages for use with sardine,
        instead of just mistral?
        
        Not yet.

      * http://maemo.org/pipermail/maemo-developers/2006-November/006161.html
        On screen keyboard questions
        
        "Is the format of the .vkb files (in /usr/share/keyboards)
        described somewhere? Is there a tool to generate those files
