#AyatanaIndicators NEWS: Robert Tari has been working on a GTK-free and dbusmenu-free reimplementation of the AppIndicator API. Today I have uploaded a first draft (pre-2.0.0) of the new libayatana-appindicator-glib to Debian unstable. It will take some time, but this will bebthe total hype new kid on the block in the AppIndicator world. All developers, start porting your apps and applets and survive GTK-3 and dbusmenu (dead like an old fish). And be warned: this breaks KStatusNotifierItem!!!

@Natureshadow I am indeed. We are currently packaging #AyatanaIndicators for #openSUSE and work on providing the look'n'feel of #Ubuntu #MATE to #openSUSE...

Working on getting #AyatanaIndicators into #openSUSE:Factory these days.

Robert Tari and I will be working on releasing the #AyatanaIndicators 0.9.x series the coming days. These releases will complement #UbuntuTouch (developed by the #UBports team) based on #Ubuntu 20.04. So, stay tuned...

Next up for #AyatanaIndicators: Port over #UbuntuTouch specific changes, integrate all the system indicators into #Lomiri and then improve test coverage of the components' unit tests. While we do this, we won't break anything for desktops that already switched over from #Ubuntu indicators.

#AyatanaIndicators is now about to end the second month with a half time developer funded by the #UBports Foundation. All project components now use the same build system (#CMake) and nearly all have #Travis CI builds up and running.

#AyatanaIndicators project is now funded by the #UBports Foundation for the next 6 months (1st months is nearly over) with a half-time developer position. Send us bug reports and feedback, the time is good...

Ah, and btw. #AyatanaIndicators have been released yesterday: the 0.8.0 series. #Indicators are not only usable on #Ubuntu now, but on every Linux and BSD distro. In fact, it took quite some effort to make them work on #Ubuntu again after we had freed them from the Ubuntu-patch #GTK3....
