Comment 33 for bug 1154229

Quick status update where we are. As of today we have
all default scopes ported (except gwibber/friends) and from a user point
of view we're almost back at 12.10 functionality. Biggest regression
against 12.10 is the filtering which we're currently fixing. In more detail:

- Scopes still to be ported for client side: pypi and evolution, estimated to
be done today

- Currently 9 scopes are run on server side: amazon, weather, synonym,
antonym, dictionary, duckduckgo_related, skimlinks, wikipedia and u1ms.
More to follow by 21.3.

- Doing a scope search in dash, server scopes are queried and results
are sent back to client. There results are properly inserted into categories
and can be activated. Smaller bugs here and there like missing icons etc.

- Server preview work is in progress, currently only the general
preview, but not music or any other specific one is working. Estimated
time of landing within couple of hours after getting proper support from
server. Petronis from server side already contacted but no estimate yet.

- Master scope filtering is incomplete as we're still missing some
filter attributes (definitions). Expected to be done by 21.3.

- Enabling/disabling of individual scopes via dash is biggest remaining
todo item. Estimated to land on 21. or 22.3.
