Description Andrew Sobala 2002-11-25 18:30:38 UTC
The UI review team recommend the user interface specification at this URL:

http://www242.pair.com/~nilsp/nils/sesh/sesh_hci_spec.html

Additionally, to replace occurences of "Prompt" with "Ask".
Comment 1 Andrew Sobala 2003-09-25 15:55:28 UTC
Moving session properties bugs into the relevant component. Sorry for the e-mail
spam (it's finished now): filter on "Andrew doing reassignment work" to get rid
of it.
Comment 2 Vincent Noel 2004-09-20 20:53:46 UTC
The URL cannot be accessed (error 403)...

Some of this is available from archive.org

Most things in this dialog are either broken beyond repair (needs a reworking of
what we think sessions should do [see markmc's recent post]) or are just minor
text cleanups.

If someone just did the s/Prompt/Ask I'd be happy to close this bug and open a
new one when we re-examine the session system.
Comment 4 Vincent Noel 2004-10-01 20:08:26 UTC
Actually I could only find one occurrence of "Prompt" in the current gnome-session :

Comment 5 Bryan W Clark 2004-10-01 20:15:28 UTC
Yea, that's the only one I believe the bug was talking about.  I guess it makes
much more sense just to use full sentances and say 'replace "Prompt on logout"
with "Ask on logout"' so we don't get complications between s/Prompt/Ask and
s/Prompt/Ask/g or something.  Sorry for any confusion.
Comment 6 Vincent Noel 2004-10-01 20:21:41 UTC
Ok, so is this change ok to commit ?
Comment 7 Bryan W Clark 2004-12-20 23:34:50 UTC
Has this been committed?
Comment 8 Vincent Noel 2004-12-22 15:54:30 UTC
Not yet.
Is it ok to commit ?
Comment 9 Bryan W Clark 2004-12-22 16:04:15 UTC
Looks fine to me
Comment 10 Vincent Noel 2004-12-22 16:24:05 UTC
Commited. I actually changed changed "_Prompt" to "As_k" as the "A" shortcut was
already used in the dialog. Closing the bug.
