Developers' ToDo List

This is the current list of tasks for the Ubuntu Tour Developers:

  • Devise a format for storing 'tours' so they can be opened by the application
    • These should be stored in some kind of archive (.tar?), so a user can just download a single file and load it up in the app
    • This archive should include all resources (images, text) needed
    • 'tours' should not be 'built-in' to the app. The app should open & interpret them from these files

  • The app needs several methods for determining when a step of a certain tour is complete. This can include things like:
    • Process detection
    • DBus
    • A 'next' button (with indicator on whether automatic or manual)
  • The app needs to indicate to users on the screen a certain location of interest. We need some way of rendering arrows or boxes on the screen (outside of the main app window) to highlight things.
  • UI design
    • The html view, now uses css colours read from the gtkrc theme
