Unfortunately the evolution-data-server client-side libraries seem to
block the calling thread. This is a major problem as we must never
ever block the main thread (doing so causes animations to flicker
etc.). In the worst case, this problem causes login to hang (without
falling back to fall-back mode) and in the best case it slows down
login until a network connection is acquired.
Additionally, in order to sanely use these evolution-data-server
libraries, GConf has to be involved and GConf is not thread-safe. So
it's not really feasible just moving the code to a separate
thread. Therefore, move all calendar IO out of process and use a
simple (and private) D-Bus interface for the shell to communicate with
the out-of-process helper.
For simplification, remove existing in-process code since internal
interfaces have been slightly revised. This means that the shell is no
longer using any native code for drawing the calendar dropdown.

A PolicyKit Authentication Agent is a construct used to authenticate
one or more identities. See the PolicyKit documentation for more
details on authentication agents and how PolicyKit works:
http://hal.freedesktop.org/docs/polkit/
Since gjs does not support subclassing a GObject class from Javascript
code, we bring in a native class to bridge the VFuncs to GObject
signals. Additionally, this native class also queues up authentication
requests so the user of the native class only has to deal with a
single outstanding request at any one time.
The file js/ui/polkitAuthenticationAgent.js introduces a singleton
that listens for authentication requests via the native class. This
singleton uses the PolkitAgent machinery to do the actual heavy-weight
lifting required for authentication (essentially a PAM conversation).
We currently don't allow the user to pick the identity to be
authenticated.

A key for 12hr/24hr clock format has been added to gsettings-desktop-schemas,

We were going to great effort to include the normal directories in the
GJS search path and the code to to do this broke recently when
jsdir and jsnativedir were moved to gjs-internals-1.0.pc. However, it
was actually unnecessary since the standard directories are appended
to the default path.
(We continue to use a GNOME_SHELL_JS envvar separate from GJS_PATH
for the Shell to enable the somewhat unlikely case where someone wants
to invoke the shell specifying a GJS_PATH.)

Add a "gicon" property so that a GIcon can be used instead of an
icon name, while still getting icon recoloring from the theme.

ST makes use of GTK+ for input methods and for icon themes; therefore
we have need to initialize GTK+ in order to test these parts of Clutter.
Instead of LD_PRELOADING our module, use a separately compiled executable
that links to the UI components in GNOME Shell, initializes Clutter and
GTK+ and hooks them together.
Getting all the symbols from St and the GUI components exported for
use via GJS requires a bit of contortion: we need to actually link the
St convenience library into a shared library and link the executable
to that since there is no way with libtool to take a convenience library
and put all its symbols into an executable --whole-archive style.

The actor emitted by ShellTrayManager is now ShellTrayIcon, a subclass
of ShellGtkEmbed which has several properties on it which are (or will
soon be) useful to the shell.
Part of the rearranging to use ShellTrayIcon means that we now show
the ShellEmbeddedWindow before creating its ShellGtkEmbed, which
requires a few modifications to ShellEmbeddedWindow (notably, telling
it at construct time what stage it will be drawn on, since it needs to
know that before it has a ShellGtkEmbed now).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=608869
As of 1.4, ClutterGLXTexturePixmap is identical to
ClutterX11TexturePixmap (with the differences having been moved into
the cogl layer). So make ShellGtkEmbed use the (introspected) X11
version, which then allows us to make the instance and class structs
public as well.

* Use --warn-all, --warn-error
* Fix various broken gtk-doc
* Drop unused shell_get_event_related
* For header defines, we currently require them to end in _H to be skipped
* Drop the no-longer-necessary fix-meta-rectangle.py hack
* Move to the convention of using -private.h for headers that are,
well, private.
* Add shell-wm-private.h
g-ir-scanner is currently buggy and confuses the Gdk.Rectangle alias
with MetaRectangle. Since this is moderately hard to fix in
gobject-introspection and the fix would conflict with in-progress
changes, work around by doing a 'sed job' on the generated Meta.gir.

Use GSettings for all Shell configuration. GConf is kept to read
configuration from external programs (Metacity, Nautilus and Magnifier),
but ShellGConf is removed because it's mostly useless for the few calls
we still have. Also get rid of unused GConf code in ShellAppSystem.
A basic GConf schema is still used to override Metacity defaults and
configure Magnifier in a system-wide fashion. GConf is also used as
GSettings backend via the GSETTINGS_BACKEND environment variable.
All of this will be removed when these programs have been ported
to GSettings and able to use dconf.
GLib 2.25.9 is required. Schemas are converted to the new XML format,
and compiled at build time in data/ so that the Shell can be run from
the source tree. This also requires setting the GSETTINGS_SCHEMA_DIR
environment variable both when running installed or from source tree,
in src/gnome-shell.in and src/gnome-shell-clock-preferences.in.

Nothing uses ShellOverflowList any more, so remove it. (Even if we

First, we were passing an incorrect timestamp to
meta_display_focus_the_no_focus_window - fix that.
The invocation of set_focus_app to the started app there couldn't
really work, because (if the above call had worked) we'd get the
X reply *after* the started app.
What we need to untangle here is the distinction that's now made in
ShellApp between _STATE_STARTING and _STATE_RUNNING. A nice way to
start doing this is to rebase ShellWindowTracker to only be concerned
with app states. Concretely, the current "has windows implies
running" logic now lives just inside shell-app.c.
Rename the app-running-changed signal to be app-state-changed. This
will ultimately be useful so that inside the panel, we can track
the last started app.

* crosshairs to accentuate the position of the mouse,
* user preferences persistence via GConf (schemas in

* a DBus API to allow other processes to drive the magnifier as a service.

Brute force merge these two by essentially replacing St.TextureCache
with a (renamed) Shell.TextureCache.
One function was added for convenience, namely "st_texture_cache_load_file_simple".
St.TextureCache had a function to load a texture from a filename, and it
returned NULL on error but only half the callers actually checked this. This
function is better.

Since shell-slicer.h includes st.h, and that includes
<st/*.h>, we need to add -I $(srcdir) to the command line when
running g-ir-scanner to generate Shell-1.0.gir.
Previously we were hacking out the vertical scrollbar, this patch
allow us to sanely say in which directions we want to scroll.
Note this patch intentionally changes St to depend on GTK+ in the
API. I believe this is a correct long term change where we should
view St as co-evolving with GTK+ rather than replacing or paralleling.

It's nicer to have ShellDrawingArea as a St widget so it can

automatically on style changes, and allowing subclasses to use
CSS styling.

The two parts were mapping windows to applications, and
recording application usage statistics. The latter part
(now called ShellAppUsage) is much more naturally built on top of
the former (now called ShellWindowTracker).
ShellWindowTracker retains the startup-notification handling.
ShellWindowTracker also gains a focus-app property, which is
what most things in the shell UI are interested in (instead of
window focus).
ShellAppSystem moves to exporting ShellApp from more of its
public API, rather than ShellAppInfo. ShellAppSystem also
ensures that ShellApp instances are unique by holding
a hash on the ids.
ShellApp's private API is split off into a shell-app-private.h,
so shell-app.h can be included in shell-app-system.h.
Favorites handling is removed from ShellAppSystem, now inside
appFavorites.js.
Port all of the JavaScript for these changes.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=598646
Previously, we had ShellAppInfo, which contains fundamental
information about an application, and methods on ShellAppMonitor
to retrieve "live" information like the window list.
AppIcon ended up being used as the "App" class which was painful
for various reasons; among them that we need to handle window
list changes, and some consumers weren't ready for that.
Clean things up a bit by introducing a new ShellApp class in C,
which currently wraps a ShellAppInfo.
AppIcon then is more like the display actor for a ShellApp. Notably,
the ".windows" property moves out of it. The altTab code which
won't handle dynamic changes instead is changed to maintain a
cached version.
ShellAppMonitor gains some more methods related to ShellApp now.
In the future, we might consider changing ShellApp to be a GInterface,
which could be implemented by ShellDesktopFileApp, ShellWindowApp.
Then we could axe ShellAppInfo from the "public" API and it would
return to being an internal loss mitigation layer for GMenu.

Add .AUTOPARALELL which is my GNU-make fix for projects to specify
that the build is parallel-safe, and to automatically parallelize.
Add a missing dependency on built sources, and specify --libtool
to be safe.
This is a Box subclass which adds several signals useful for implementing
"button like" behavior, such as hover and pressed states, as well as
click activation on release.
$(builddir) is not a standard automake variable. With autoconf < 2.64
it ends up getting set in every Makefile.in to '.' (because autoconf
defines it), but that is no longer the case for 2.64.
Since $(builddir) was always '.', just use that instead.
Infrastructure for localization; hook up intltool, create po/
and po/POTFILES.in. We need to call bindtextdomain/bind_textdomain_codeset.
Switch to gnome-autogen.sh to call intltool.
Because of a history of cut and paste, the different enumeration

Subclass ClutterGroup (to avoid having to implement all of dispose,
raise, lower, add, etc.), and have it proxy the allocation requests
out into signals. We have to group up the two out parameters
into a struct unfortunately.
Included example code in the C file source for now.
ShellDrawingArea is a size-independent wrapper for a ClutterCairoTexture.
Useful when drawing non-fixed size areas.
ShellStack is a simple container class which holds items
in a completely overlapping Z stack. The main difference
from ClutterGroup is that items will be constrained to
(and allocated) the size of the stack, not getting their
preferred size always.
Although methods like gconf_client_get/set_bool() and such are usable
from gjs, get_list/set_list is not, since there's only one method for
all list types. So ShellGConf wraps GConfClient and adds separate
typed list methods.
Also, add a detailed "changed" signal that can easily be connected to
from js, since we can't currently use gconf_client_notify_add()
directly.
Add a ShellTextureCache class which loads (and can cache)
pixmap->texture conversions. This fixes a problem with the
async code in ClutterTexture that it was lower priority
than animations, and also ensures we're really only
loading these pixbufs once in the icon case.
* Rename ShellGtkWindowActor to ShellGtkEmbed, and make it require
a ShellEmbeddedWindow rather than a general GtkWindow.
* Add ShellEmbeddedWindow subclass of GtkWindow that bypasses most
of the GtkWindow complexity for size negotiation, and calls out
to a clutter actor instead; also automatically handle reparenting
the GtkWindow into the stage window.
* Use the reworked ShellGtkEmbed in ShellTrayManager, this simplifies
the code a bit, and more importantly results in the tray icons
having the correct size negotiation, rather than having a fixed
24x24 size.

ShellAppMonitor now depends on gmenu to load menus.
Use the menu data from ShellAppMonitor to show a menu list.
GenericDisplay implementations can now have a sidebar area. We
handle keystrokes such as left/right explicitly.
Some internal API changes to account for the fact that a display
can have another filter in addition to the search.
For development and demonstration purposes, it's neat to be able to
record a screencast of gnome-shell without any external setup.
Built-in recording can also give much better quality than is possible
with a generic desktop recording, since we hook right into the paint
