Settings application

[ainulindale]

Priority order, for me :

1) oeventsd (handle events/filters/actions)
2) opreferencesd (handle phone/sound profiles, ability to change ringtone easily, ...)

[Hire]

3) Active/disactive gsm, gps and suspend :)

4) GPRS connect / disconnect :>

5) USB host/client

Items in settings app should be grouped in submenus:

Networking:

=> GSM on / off
=> GPS on / off (/ check for fix / set gps time ?)
=> WIFI on / off (/ search / connect)
=> GPRS on / off (/ set apn, login & password)
=> Bluetooth on / off (/ search / connect / launch bluetooth-ftp or other bluetooth related things)
=> USB networking

=> usb mode: host, client
=> usb power: only if mode == host
=> usb gadget mode: only if mode == client, change between g_ether, g_file_storage etc

=> change g_file_storage options [4]

Profiles:

=> List of profiles
=> User should be able to edit profiles: change suspend time, screensaver time, brightness, wallpaper, vibration, sounds etc (depends whats avaible in fso-frameworkd)

Actions:

=> oeventsd stuff (but I think user shouldn't be able to change anything here)

Other (need to be "categorized"):

=> Clock / Date
=> System info
=> We could copy functionality of Sephora [3] and basics of illume-config (wallpaper etc).

We need something more? How should it look like (i mean, we could use elementary for this if there are python bindings)? Maybe list of funcs and use cases on wiki [2]?
