17:08:06 <cmurf> - Owen did research about current state (https://hackmd.io/@owtaylor/fedora-third-party-repos)
17:08:08 <cmurf> - Highlight: we have a confusing state where the user has opted in, and fedora-workstation-repositories is installed, but the user still has to enable the repositories.
17:08:10 <cmurf> - Neal pointed out relationship to prompting for drivers (NVIDIA, maybe broadcom?) to be installed (not done by GNOME Software now) - generally agreed that this is an orthogonal thing.
17:08:12 <cmurf> #action Owen to assemble proposal for next week to discuss/vote on as a WG (would then become a system-wide change proposal)
17:08:14 <cmurf> #topic The Workstation Working Group is a bottleneck

17:08:28 <cmurf> - Neal: Chat has a way forward: new Fedora Matrix server (still waiting for that)
17:08:30 <cmurf> - Discussion of Matrix clients - not entirely clear - Fractal (https://pagure.io/fedora-workstation/issue/207) seems interesting, but currently under heavy editing. KDE spin going with NeoChat, element widely used. Also ? is packaged in Fedora mentioned by Neal.
17:08:32 <cmurf> - Allan: focusing on improving communication situation fir
