I would like to try Maui.. - Gorreh - 5th November 2016

Hello, 
I used Netrunner some times ago (and as I can see old users profiles went to Maui Wink  )  for awhile and I have good remembrances Smile
I consider to jump in Maui because I like your semi-rolling idea. You inform that you "tweak" non native KDE apps to work well on Maui, so are you planing modify some config file in KDE? or just adjust look view ? e.g. as I wrote in other post, Dolphin hasn't send email via Thunderbird option in content menu, you need modify some kdeservice config file to do this. We know that TB is the best email client, this option should be there by default. Another problem with TB in KDE is that in some reason, when you put in in autostart, TB will not start after reboot. Would you manage this kind of problems or you just merge new KDE and Ubuntu ?
best regards
Gorreh

hey? are you there? Wink
I put Maui to my "testing" laptop, so far so good

ok, below solution to add TB in Dolphin content menu: you need modified ~/.local/share/kservices5/ServiceMenus  

[Desktop Entry]
Type=Service
Actions=sendto
Encoding=UTF-8
MimeType=application/octet-stream
X-KDE-ServiceTypes=KonqPopupMenu/Plugin

[Desktop Action sendto]
Name=Send e-mail using Thunderbird.
Exec=thunderbird -compose "attachment='$(echo %F | sed 's/\\ \\//,\\/\\//g')'"
Icon=thunderbird

I coudn't find solution how to setup KDE to work properly with autostart&Thunderbird 
regards

So putting it in the autostart itself does not work ?

yep, doesn't work (there is no problem with another apps, only with Thunderbird)
