[etoys-notify] [JIRA] Updated: (SQ-385) Unreasonable wait before project-info dialog show up without server connectivity

[tracker at squeakland.org]

     [ http://tracker.immuexa.com/browse/SQ-385?page=all ]

Bert Freudenberg updated SQ-385:
--------------------------------

    Priority: Blocker  (was: Normal)

Indeed. Raising to blocker.

How about doing the category update in the background? And if we do it at image startup then no perceivable delay should occur, right?

> In case unreachable to Squeakland server (not connected because of school's policy for instance), user have bad experience of long wait (>10s in my test environment) before project-info dialog show up everytime even if he doesn't think of saving to squeakland server or tying to show choises for subject/region/target-age.  time-out error is handled gracefully (no error message).
> I believe that setting without connectivity is no special and the default behavior needs improvement.
