19:15:02 <mizmo> bcotton, i am 19:15:03 <mizmo> sup 19:15:28 <bcotton> mizmo: going around the table for F29 beta release readiness and it's design's turn. how are you fine folks? 19:15:52 <mizmo> bcotton, wrt the wallpaper i think we are locked and loaded. we've only gotten positive feedback on the wallpaper which is always a good sign 19:15:59 <mizmo> bcotton, wrt the website o_O i am a bit worried. 19:16:39 <mattdm> yeah, I haven't heard from robyduck 19:16:41 <bcotton> i have website as a separate item further down the agenda, but do you want to elaborate on that now? 19:16:58 <mizmo> bcotton, i had been working on some preliminary redesign stuff for the website but its a big change, i dont know that we have any of the implementation completed, and it's not 100% clear to me if the changes are now needed for f29. i think some of the changes that were planned are pushed back now from f29 19:17:19 <mattdm> mizmo: yeah, I think all the big stuff you are working on is f30 target 19:17:26 <mizmo> i think the iot spin is still going to need a website for f29 tho but i'm not sure 19:17:34 <mattdm> there may be some small important items for f29 19:17:37 <mizmo> mattdm, oh ok phew 19:17:50 <mizmo> mattdm, the iot one is the main one i can think of that might still apply? if there's others let me know 19:17:58 <mizmo> although i need some dev help if robyduck is unavailable :( 19:18:02 <mattdm> iot is what i was thinking too 19:18:16 <mattdm> yeah I'll look for dev help too 19:18:19 <mizmo> i dont know about coreos either 19:18:26 * nirik hopes robbyduck is ok 19:18:28 <mizmo> or silverblue 19:18:43 <mattdm> coreos is definitely f30-ish 19:18:50 <mattdm> nirik: he's okay, just job stuff. 19:18:52 <mizmo> kk 19:19:35 <nirik> cool. 19:20:31 <bcotton> mattdm: do you think we need to seek out help for getting the f29 work done then? 19:21:08 <mattdm> bcotton: probably. #helpwanted, I guess? 19:21:22 <mizmo> also for F30 hehe 19:21:26 <mizmo> website redo 19:21:29 <bcotton> okay, i'll put that in when i #topic websites 19:21:46 <mattdm> bcotton thanks 19:21:48 <bcotton> mizmo: anything else for F29 beta from the design side? 19:23:31 <bcotton> #info Wallpaper feedback is universally positive 19:23:58 <contyk> now if only KDE... 19:24:11 <bcotton> la la la i can't hear you, contyk 19:24:29 <bcotton> #topic Desktop 19:24:35 <adamw> KD...whuts that?

19:34:33 <contyk> 3 19:34:40 <dustymabe> cmurf: i'm "around" 19:34:45 <bowlofeggs> but yeah that silverblue one is concerning 19:34:51 <bowlofeggs> especially since we can't get responses about it 19:34:55 <dustymabe> cmurf: please feel free to ping jdoss WRT cloud* stuff as well 19:34:56 <nirik> I think just the anaconda and websites stuff is still outstanding on silverblue. 19:35:02 <bcotton> dustymabe: we can swing back around to the Cloud WG momentarily if you have a status update you'd like to give 19:35:33 <bcotton> #info Portions of the "Rename Atomic Workstation to Silverblue" change are outstanding 19:35:54 <mboddu> I think the only thing that is not done is branding in Anaconda 19:36:08 * jdoss is around as well for any Cloud WG stuff 19:36:21 <bcotton> jdoss: ack 19:36:24 <mboddu> But Silverblue is not a blocking artifact 19:36:49 <bcotton> anything else from FESCo? 19:37:09 <bowlofeggs> mboddu: yes, but the changes do affect blocking artifacts 19:37:12 <bowlofeggs> like anaconda 19:37:17 * mboddu is not FESCo, but just jumped in 19:37:37 <contyk> bcotton: nope, I think we're good, or at least this 1/9th is 19:37:51 <bowlofeggs> 3/9 says +1 so g2g ☺ 19:37:53 <dustymabe> IMHO if "rebranding Silverblue" in anaconda doesn't make it, it's not a huge deal 19:37:54 <mattdm> 0.333333333 19:37:59 <bcotton> it rounds up 19:37:59 <dustymabe> it's mostly cosmetic 19:38:09 <bcotton> #topic Cloud WG (part 2) 19:38:23 <bcotton> dustymabe, jdoss, anything you want to share? 19:39:06 <dustymabe> bcotton: not in particular, I don't know of any issues right now. will check 1.2 when it's done 19:39:26 <dustymabe> jdoss: you want to give 1.2 a run through when it's ready? 19:39:42 <mboddu> bowlofeggs: Ah okay, but if we decide not to change anything in anaconda now, then we should be fine for the release (except for wrong rebranding) 19:40:02 <jdoss> Yea I can no problem just LMK 19:40:16 <bcotton> #info no known issues 19:40:20 <jdoss> Nothing in the Cloud WG should block F29 right now. 19:40:24 <bcotton> anything else, cloud friends? 19:40:59 <jdoss> The cloud updates are something I am still working on but it's an internal change and it doesn't impact F29. Still chipping away at my POC for the updates. 19:41:05 <jdoss> that is about it. 19:41:18 <dustymabe> bcotton++ 19:41:19 <zodbot> dustymabe: Karma for bcotton changed to 8 (for the current release cycle): https://badges.fedoraproject.org/tags/cookie/any 19:41:21 <bcotton> #info Cloud updates change is still in progress, but won't block 19:41:36 <bcotton> okay, so i'll move us on to the next 19:41:42 <bcotton> #topic Infrastructure 19:41:44 <jdoss> Thanks bcotton 19:42:18 <bowlofeggs> #info bodhi is ready 19:42:31 <bcotton> bowlofeggs++ 19:42:31 <zodbot> bcotton: Karma for bowlofeggs changed to 16 (for the current release cycle): https://badges.fedoraproject.org/tags/cookie/any 19:43:12 <bcotton> anything else on the infra side? 19:43:12 <nirik> infra should be all ready. no issues I am aware of 19:43:28 <bcotton> excellent! 19:43:41 <bcotton> #topic Marketing 19:43:48 <bcotton> x3mboy 19:44:06 <x3mboy> From marketing we are waiting for the TPs 19:44:25 <x3mboy> Remember we use TPs to the Beta Release Announcenment 19:44:45 <x3mboy> Also, the GA Release Announcenment from mattdm should be helpedwith this a little bit 19:44:49 <x3mboy> And we have nothing there 19:44:57 * bcotton can't remember yesterday's meeting. does someone own the talking points? 19:44:58 <x3mboy> For everything else we are good 19:45:07 <x3mboy> Yes, bt0 19:45:37 <x3mboy> But the idea is each team help with their own opinion on what's new and awesome in each release 19:45:41 <bcotton> #info bt0 owns the talking points that will be used to create the release announcement 19:45:48 <mattdm> x3mboy: yes I definitely appreciate help :) 19:46:01 <bcotton> #help teams should work with bt0 to provide relevant talking points for their areas 19:46:11 <x3mboy> e.g.: last edition atomic team did a great work with the TPs 19:46:21 <x3mboy> We did almost nothing 19:46:28 <x3mboy> Just serve as a bridge 19:46:53 * x3mboy sighs remembering KDE and 3 releases without TPs from them 19:47:12 <bcotton> x3mboy anything else from marketing? 19:47:15 <x3mboy> Nope 19:47:21 <bcotton> great, thanks! 19:47:33 <bcotton> #topic QA 19:47:41 * x3mboy needs to run. 19:47:44 <x3mboy> Bye guys 19:47:49 <bcotton> bye, x3mboy 19:48:18 <bcotton> adamw or anyone else want to give a QA update? 19:48:37 <adamw> sorry 19:48:40 <adamw> i'm debugging stuff 19:48:42 <adamw> uh, ok 19:49:00 <adamw> #info RC1 validation testing is fairly complete, there has been no testing of RC2 yet as it is not done yet 19:49:36 <adamw> #info we would very much like to have a bit more time to do more exploratory testing of DNF and GNOME and look into some of the outstanding blocker/FE bugs 19:49:46 <adamw> that's what we'll be doing this week 19:50:22 * nirik notes there's an update now fixing the kde background thing (well, needs testing that it does, but it should) 19:50:30 <bcotton> nirik++ 19:50:31 <zodbot> bcotton: Karma for kevin changed to 32 (for the current release cycle): https://badges.fedoraproject.org/tags/cookie/any 19:51:04 <bcotton> anything else from QA or should we let adamw get back to work? 19:51:16 <adamw> that's all i've got really? 19:51:19 <adamw> any questions? 19:52:22 <bcotton> sounds like a "no", thanks, adamw 19:52:29 <bcotton> #topic Release Engineering 19:52:36 <bcotton> mboddu, you're up 19:52:51 <mboddu> bcotton: Oh, sorry, working on something else 19:53:34 <mboddu> Other than not having a completed RC2 compose, RelEng is all ready for the release 19:54:01 <bcotton> is RC2 happily chugging along? 19:54:59 <mboddu> bcotton: Yes, its going fine (and slow) :) 19:55:05 <bcotton> excellent 19:55:15 <bcotton> #info RC2 is composing.
