Notes for SLC BoF

[Marco Martin]

main points of the discussion this morning about Share Like Connect (went a
bit in KActivityManager land)
https://notes.kde.org/p/SLC_bof_2014

* SLC will use KWin
* the information of the current document/url will be sent to kwin, is the
only one that * who can know the current active window
* wayland surfaces can also be passed as thumbnails

* Differenciate between open documents and current selection will
* as far as the UI goes: a plasmoid is needed, to have the same ui for all
applications, or place and look of the feature will be different for each
one
* The main concern is that there is a disconnection: the icon in a
different place than the application. an optional button in the app as well
that opens the same menu?
* Aleix proposed to work on a generic sharing framework that would be used
by it, or optionally directly by applications
*Another argument to have it globally is that hopefully the open documents
for windows may go in the Wayland spec, so no need to patch 3rd parties
applications

Work items:
* Wayland interface for documents
* Sharing framework integrated with central accounts management
* UI discussion on VDG
* After discussion, implementing final UI

Work in appications to use this more
* Using ResourceInstance in more applications
* API to access statistics from KAMD statistics and scores, for instance to
order a contact list
