 All editions (post stable release of MATE/Cinnamon Editions)

 Cinnamon Edition
 ----------------
 	cinnamon-settings: datetime module doesn't fit in window
 	cinnamon: only 1 msgid for "Lock Screen" (action vs noun)	
 	cinnamon-settings: lockscreen - make the “Show this message when the screen is locked” input box larger and on its own row below.	
 	cinnamon-settings: can't set hours in datetime module
 	cinnamon-settings: desklets - left-align the note underneath “Decoration of desklets”	
 	In keyboard settings -> User defined keyboard shortcuts, three phrases are shown when hovering above the keyboard binding. The first is translated, but “Press Escape or click again to cancel the operation” and “Press Backspace to clear the existing keybinding” are not translated though they have been translated in Launchpad (Danish).
 	chromium: After watching a full screen video (for example on Youtube) the panels are disappearing (the browser window hides them).	
 	If Open menu when mouse hovers is selected, right-clicking the menu and moving the mouse upwards to select Configure often leads to the menu opening and the right-click menu disappears before it can be clicked. Doing it a couple of times in succession finally allows one to clicking Configure – it varies how may times I have to try before I succeed.
 	Breadcrumbs in Nemo do not display correctly with Adwaita theme or High Contrast theme.
 	tomboy is missing
 	pidgin status icon is not displayed. I have to do Alt+F2 -> “r” to make it visible.

 	battery applet tooltip is AC Adapter?
 MATE Edition
 ------------
 	pluma: crash when pressing CTRL+I
 	dropbox: caja-dropbox not installable
 	gparted is missing
 	Remove mate-user-share? In Control Center, Shared Folders and User Share seem to duplicate and don't work well together. I have noticed that Shared Folders (from the Control Centre) will not save any shares I add.
 	mint-meta-mate package still depends on mate-doc-utils, which has been replaced by yelp-tools in MATE 1.8.
 	remove ugly minimize effect "org.mate.interface enable-animations"
 	trackpad should have tap-to-click enabled.
 	When you open Banshee, and close the window, a notification is shown beyond borders of desktop. You can see only top left corner of notification.	
 	mintmenu: multiple issues with compiz
 	mintmenu: Multiple Menu Entries – The menu has two entries for gnome-disk, libreoffice draw, and mate-volume-control in the ‘All’ category. This will appear when you first log into the system, but will disappear if you search through the menu and then look in the ‘All’ category	
 	xdg-open /home --> opens Firefox instead of caja
 	hibernation mode is missing	
 KDE Edition
 -----------
 	kdm: Installing KDM shows a Mint 15 background
 	gtk2-engines-oxygen:i386 can't be installed because of the differing /usr/share/themes/oxygen-gtk/gtk-2.0/gtkrc

-New bug reports in Mint 17 RC
+New bug reports in Mint 17.1 RC
 All editions
 ------------
 	- Selecting Encrypted Home Folder Always Breaks Swap https://bugs.launchpad.net/linuxmint/+bug/1367392
 	- please bring back the “Mint-X-Dark” icon set. its important for dark themes..
 	- uim and uim-byeoru combination give us a good process but , uim installs only uim itself , we need key instance to define keys to input language. installing other packages supported by uim category , it install 19 more packages we just need one more package “uim-byeoru” with “uim”
 	- nabi is still beloved input method for korean , and the research shows it clearly , could you add nabi as input method to mintlocale please?
 	- mdmsetup Under the Welcome Message the text input area for Custom should align on the left hand side with the ‘Welcome’ text above it. Either ‘Welcome’ should be moved to the right or the text input area increased to the left to get the correct alignment.
 	- for non-english speaking people, it is not possible to change language, nor keyboard settings, when starting livemedia.
 	- mdm https://github.com/linuxmint/mdm/pull/127
 	- gcin couldn’t apply the change of its input method settings, and also the CTRL+SPACE(combine keys that used change bwtween English and Chinese input method) didn’t work well seems these could be fixed by simply update the gcin to ver 2.8.2
 	- Pidgin status icon is not showing even if in the settings it’s set to always show.
 	- Add some template such as Writer, Calc, Presentation on context R_click: http://s26.postimg.org/3lz7jf3cp/Screenshot_from_2014_11_17_10_48_47.png
 	- when resizing Software Sources window, its scale up and never scale down!
 Cinnamon Edition - last processed comment: #59
 ----------------------------------------------
 	- cinnamon-settings-users should not let root modify user's passwords when their home is crypted
 	- expo trash icon isn't sized properly
 	- The wireless signal strength of the networks shown changes constantly and the percentage is almost all the time wrong (weak signal networks are shown with 80+% strength and strong signal ones with low percentage).
 	- When I refresh the Applets cache, the progress windows does not appear correctly, it was just a tiny gray window in the top left corner.
 	-  I disabled the recently used Files. After that the menu gets way to wide (it reach nearly to the 17.1 on the wallpaper. There is a text in the menu that says “recently used files are disabled…” (I don’t know the correct words, i use the german language)
 	-  I can’t select an alternative mirror for the Ubuntu-Trusty repository.
 	- Update Manager icon in bottom panel does not scale with the size of the panel. Increasing the size of the panel does not increase the Update Manager icon (even when all the other icons increase in size…yes I ticked that box :) ).
 	- The login screen always defaults to “Login” rather than the user. In my case I have one user on the system and it should default to that user so I don’t have to continually click on my user to input the password.
 	- settings/backgrounds Gradient and Picture Aspect text not aligned on the left side.
 	- settings/backgrounds Consider aligning the dropdown boxes for Gradient and Picture Aspect to each other.
 	- settings/panel Under Auto-hide panel consider aligning the two input boxes to each other (+/- milliseconds input buttons) but keep Show Delay and Hide Delay aligned with each other on the left side.
 	- settings/preferedapps Consider little bit more spacing under the Terminal dropdown to balance the window elements a bit.
 	- If I disable the desktop icons with the first checkbox in cinnamon-settings the right mousebutton does not work on the desktop anymore…
 	- On screen keyboard applet – the tray button does not send the keyboard to the tray, otherwise the applet works fine.
 	- Accessibility settings, typing, turning on-screen keyboard on or off does not appear to do anything. 
 	- Screen reader did not appear to do anything, even after installing orca.
 	- Account details: Cinnamon 17, by default link: http://s26.postimg.org/armd84n21/Screenshot_from_2014_11_17_10_04_05.png, 17.1 by default: http://s26.postimg.org/gyxr8ait5/Screenshot_from_2014_11_17_10_35_12.png
 	- If changing the mouse pointer from default white to black (e.g Adwaita), it shows up as white during startup. After login, it changes to black.
 	- Usint mint-x aqua theme when you maximize windows they go behind panel. Default theme doesn’t do this. I haven’t tried others.
