Sounds good. If you think ubuntu-download-manager is the way to go, let's move on with it. On Wed, Jan 18, 2017 at 2:34 PM, Mike Sheldon wrote: > Ah, my mistake. I'd suspect UDM is less likely to change since it's > already a public facing API being used in third party apps. But it > sounds like

Ah, my mistake. I'd suspect UDM is less likely to change since it's already a public facing API being used in third party apps. But it sounds like we don't lose anything if we start it off as unity8- download-manager whilst bundled with unity8 if we can then add an additional interface once its dis

Sorry for not being clear. In addition to the suggestion about ubuntu-download-manager, I also wrote this: "Note that part of the rationale of having unity8-contacts and unity8-calendar named like that was that these interfaces are likely to change in meaningful and incompatible ways in the near f

Sorry, that was my entire point, I guess I should have expanded on it a bit. I agree with ubuntu-download-manager as a name, since that's the name developers will be interacting with if they're using our SDK. For example under QML they're importing Ubuntu.DownloadManager and the C++ namespace is Ub

ubuntu-download-manager makes sense as a name to me, especially as it's one of the APIs in the Ubuntu SDK. On Wed, 2017-01-18 at 12:34 -0200, Gustavo Niemeyer wrote: > > The real issue with download-manager is that it's too general. We all > have several download managers in our systems, so this

Re: Naming for the Ubuntu Download Manager interface

2017-01-18 Thread Gustavo Niemeyer
The real issue with download-manager is that it's too general. We all have several download managers in our systems, so this gives no hint of what it's really talking about. We can call it ubuntu-download-manager if that's how the software was named. Note that part of the rationale of having unity

Naming for the Ubuntu Download Manager interface

2017-01-18 Thread Mike Sheldon
Hi all,  Currently the interface for UDM (Ubuntu Download Manager) has been named unity8-download-manager. It's my understanding that whilst we might initially be bundling UDM within the unity8 snap to make the first stages of development easier (e.g. so it can talk directly to unity8's transfer i
