Expected Milestone

DanVratil and

Deffered

Port the mail composer to WebKit and retire GtkHtml. Bug report

3.9.1

Support Ubuntu's SSO framework

MatthewBarnes and
AlbertoMardegan

Done

Supports Google and Yahoo! online accounts.
(Needs a bit more polishing yet, but it's merged now.)

3.7.5

Generate GDBus APIs with gdbus-codegen

MatthewBarnes

Done

For calendars and address books:
Simplify D-Bus interfaces, deprecate functions that covertly block.
(Still have some follow up work to do, but kicking that out to 3.9.)

3.7.5

Remove the legacy IMAP backend

MatthewBarnes

Done

Add missing features to the IMAPX backend, transition users smoothy.

3.7.4

New Importer Framework

MatthewBarnes

Deffered

Make it async, GIO-based. Convert EPlugins to EExtensions.
Got this half-way done some time ago, then had to shelve it.
