[Pkg-bluetooth-maintainers] Re: gnome-bluetooth progress (or rather lack of progress)

[Øystein Gisnås]

I've changed the way gnome-obex-send discovers devices. Now it will
add new, visible devices to the list whenever the Rescan button is
pressed. This way it is actually usable.

Now would be a good time to upload libbtctl and gnome-bluetooth to the
archive. Filippo, are you in? If you don't want to interfer with the
release of etch, experimental is fine with me.

Cheers,
Øystein
