Some confusion probably caused by not reading the proposals for this
release. I was not aware there was a search box in the Home View.
What is its <br>
function?<br>
<br>
Currently, the XO palette is open when the Home View appears. This
is presumably a bug and not a feature which will be fixed by putting
the focus on the search box. I hope this new search box has a
sufficiently useful function for all XOs to justify this grab for
attention. <br>
<br>
The problem with the palette is that it is modal and no action can
be taken on the keyboard (e.g. switch to Journal or Neighborhood
View or look at Frame) until the cursor is moved. This, of course,
requires one more step in 'onboarding' to make users aware of the
disabling nature of modal dialogs.<br>

<div>I am pleased to announce the release of Sugar 0.107.2
(unstable). This release means that we have reached the API,
UI and Strings freeze deadline [1] and that we should focus on
making sure there are no missing translations or exceptional
bugs left.</div>

</div>
<div>This release comes with the following improvements:</div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>Collaboration works on newer systems (e.g. Fedora 23)
with activities that do not use Tubes (e.g. Chat).<br>
</li>
<li>The search box in home view grabs focus automatically.<br>
</li>
<li>More little steps on documenting our toolkit.</li>
