Current status update for MATE. 1. Creating an applet for using gnome-bluetooth inside MATE is a death project for me. The applet himself is working (thanks kalev), but using gnome-blutooth properties is a problem since 'properties' isn't a standalone application anymore and moved to control-center. In result a user needs to install control-center and deps which is totally worse.
2. after vacation time MATE upstream has decided to port mate-bluetooth to bluez5 which will come for MATE-1.8 maybe and of the year or later. This means for f20 MATE won't support bluetooth. We will obsolete mate-bluetooth for the moment to avoid bug reports about this and re-activate it if it is ported to bluez5 during the release cycle of f20 and for f21. 3. A user of MATE desktop can use bluedevil from KDE for f20, which seems to be well working inside MATE. Bluedevil has also a systray applet. It would be very nice to mention this in f20 release notes. 4. From my personal side i won't block bluez5 for f20 Wolfgang -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
