It is not used anymore, now that translations are bundled with
the extension. Also, in the zip files it ended up with my home
folder, which is not nice.
Common code for retrieving translations and GSettings schemas has
been factored out into lib/convenience.js, which is part of
every extension installation.
Since that code relies on renames done at zip file creation time,
extensions can no longer be installed with "make install". Instead,
one should create the zip file and install it with the tweak-tool.
There is also a bash script, local-install.sh, that will install
everything in zip-files.
Also, since the GSettingsSchemaSource code is not yet in a stable
GLib release, extensions using GSettings have seen their stable
shell version removed.
Now, typing "make zip-file" will create a standard zip-file for each
extension, with everything necessary, including translations and GSettings schemas.
These files can then be installed with the tweak-tool or uploaded
at extensions.gnome.org
Based on an earlier patch by Jasper St. Pierre.
gnome-shell has been ported to GDBus, and this changed some of
its internal API.
Of course, this means that alternative-status-menu no longer works
with 3.2.0.
To go along GNOME Shell 3.2.1
Also, mark both alternate-tab and dock as generally "working with
3.2", since the most outstanding bugs seem to be fixed now.
gnome.org is temporarily forbidden in UUIDs, to avoid people copy-pasting
it around. For this reason, I setup a repo at github and modified
the UUID accordingly.
I still think that primary development will stay at gnome.org, although
I'll keep both updated.
We cannot return from show() without creating an AppSwitcher, as it
will subsequently crash in core shell code due to _appSwitcher being null.
We can prevent this by destroying the actor (which will prevent it
from being allocated and thus avoid the crash).
Prior to this fix, the variables 'enter_event' and 'leave_event' in the
handler for the 'changed' event for the
'/org/gnome/shell/extensions/dock/hide_effect' dconf key were
uninitialized. This made switching the hide effect at runtime throw an
error. By promoting these two variables to instance members and
assigning to them upon initialization, this problem should be fixed.

The name property is supposed to be already a displayable string,
without any further work.
Also, that gettext call wouldn't have any effect, since we don't
have those strings in our catalogs.
By importing various stuff from core shell, now it works for me.
(In particular, what was missing was setting the modifierMask in
show()).
Also, remove the native mode. Users wishing to have it should just
disable the extension with the standard tools.
This is the stable release, so we support all of GNOME Shell
stable cycle without updates.
(As said earlier, dock and alternate-tab have issues, so they're
not marked 3.2 but just 3.2.0)
GNOME Shell has changed internal API here and there, and this
broke some extensions.
alternate-tab and dock still have issues, I'll try to solve them
post 3.2.0
