05:08:53 aha 05:09:16 I guess we already have a few features in the pipeline? 05:10:50 more gnome-shell integration for ibus, fonts-tweak-tool? 05:12:36 hi 05:12:46 anyway, good to have a little time to think about what we can make innovation on i18n in the future release of Fedora. 05:13:13 I have one question here 05:13:19 sure 05:13:38 we have some Indic locale support features submitted by Rahul long before at the time of F10 05:13:50 they are still showing in http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Category:FeaturePageIncomplete 05:14:14 I think we should also look into it and try to clean our features from FeaturePageIncomplete 05:15:14 hah 05:15:18 so we also need to check for any i18n features there and try to update them in every release cycle 05:15:24 that would be good 05:15:45 I will check for those Indic features 05:15:47 so what are the current features listed? 05:15:51 yes, well, one can propose any time if it's ready to go. 05:16:08 Libpinyin, fonts-tweak-tool, Inscript2 05:16:18 yes 05:17:09 but features needs an owner. so if no one takes it, it keeps sitting down at FeaturePageIncomplete anyway :) 05:17:12 http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Category:FeatureReadyForFesco 05:17:20 right 05:17:37 we could remove FeaturePageIncomplete perhaps? 05:17:55 not sure how to delete old unproposed features? 05:18:03 me neither 05:18:11 ok 05:18:30 hi 05:18:36 removing the tag might work - perhaps you could ask around? :) 05:18:41 I guess there may be many outdated features there. 05:18:46 sure 05:18:54 yeah 05:18:58 good to clean up IMHO anyway 05:19:15 unless there is still value in it 05:21:07 given that it's worth trying, that shouldn't be i18n specific. so good to bring this up with the wide-distribution IMHO. 05:21:43 ok 05:21:44 hi 05:21:57 anyway, anything else so far on f17? 05:22:28 I guess no schedule yet? 05:22:38 schedule for what? 05:22:44 f17? 05:22:56 https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/17/Schedule 05:23:00 ah 05:23:31 ok that's pretty new :) 05:24:07 just 2 days since f16 has been released. no wonder :) 05:24:45 okay, better move on then. 05:25:00 #topic Bugzilla house keeping 05:26:03 as announcement has been sent, EOL for f14 was set to 8th December. so it's time to revisit and evaluate f14 bugs. 05:26:56 yep 05:27:06 we have 42 bugs open for f14 now. so would be nice to review them and if it's still persist, good to change the version to avoid auto-closing. 05:28:30 if you own any bugs for f14, good to test again or ask a bug reporter if it works on the latest version in f15 or f16. 05:29:30 appreciate if you can have a time to take an action for that, anyway. 05:30:08 okay, move on. 05:30:10 #topic Input Methods 05:31:15 for updates of the multilib issue on gtk+, workaround patch has been accepted and committed upstream. so I guess we'll see that in f17. 05:31:16 * juhp wants to orphan stardict.... 05:31:23 cool 05:32:06 juhp: what is present alternative for stardict? 05:32:17 goldendict? 05:32:19 it potentially allows us to set any fallback though, I'm still thinking about what to do in imsettings. 05:32:27 I think epico_laptop said 05:33:05 tagoh: so imsettings can also do fallback with this change? 05:33:13 yes, goldendict 05:33:13 anyway stardict is crashing at my end from couple of weeks :) 05:33:20 i.e. hardcode xim only for fallback or open to the users for their preference 05:33:22 pravins, ;) 05:33:31 juhp: right 05:33:34 I know - I broke it ;) 05:33:41 well new upstream actually lol 05:34:04 well I thought it was working before I pushed it but seems not.... 05:34:36 yeah, it is not working now, good time to orphan 05:34:37 tagoh: ah right - I would suggest just hardcoding it 05:34:41 for now anyway 05:34:51 juhp: yep 05:35:00 not sure of use cases for user fallback :) 05:35:51 dueno: what's disabling some engines in ibus-m17n going on? did you get any feedbacks after that? 05:35:56 pravins, haha - I guess I needn't have bothered to take it and break it ;o) 05:36:08 tagoh: no feedback so far 05:36:25 juhp: hm, yeah. to make it simple, maybe better hardcoding xim. 05:36:32 ok 05:37:02 hopefully noone will notice ;o) 05:37:06 :) 05:37:10 dueno: okay. so what's the plan for that so far? 05:37:23 anyway I'll disable some obviously useless engines soon 05:37:29 juhp: i am very loyal user of stardict from long time :), best thing is it provides stardict-dict-hi (Hindi) like packages so we get meaning of word in local language as well. 05:37:36 dueno: okay. good 05:37:55 pravins, aha - well I was thinking to revert it... with epoch 05:38:07 pravins, can you try goldendict? 05:38:25 juhp: sure, i will it try today and will update you. thanks 05:38:37 or if you want to have it.... ;o) :) 05:38:43 any updates or news to share on IM? 05:41:00 tagoh: not much on indic-typing-booster, but as you know presented about it in Fudcon 11 05:41:24 sure. cool 05:41:28 slides available at fudcon.in/sites/default/files/slides/NG-input-method-for-indian-languages.pdf 05:42:07 how was it? :) 05:43:43 fujiwarat: do you have anything for ibus? 05:44:06 it was nice :) there was lots of student. hoping will get some contributions from them :) 05:44:17 thanks tagoh 05:44:32 aha 05:45:54 Ah, mainly I focused on bug fixes last week. As you know, ibus-1.4.0-10 was integrated. Also I implemented to run xmodmap in ibus. 05:46:10 aha 05:46:38 Currently I'm enhancing the ibus menu items. 05:46:44 cool 05:48:16 okay, move on then. 05:48:23 #topic Fonts and Rendering 05:48:37 epico_laptop, jni: any updates on fonts-tweak-tool? 05:49:23 tagoh, yeah, currently i still working on the fonts alias, implement the UI using the font chooser component in pygtk 05:49:40 btw I got a suggestion from mclasen that we should look to see if we could incorporate some of fonts-tweak-tool in gnome-tweak-tool's fonts section 05:50:00 aha. sounds nice 05:50:01 also wonder on the state of KDE's config 05:50:10 also wonder on the state of KDE's font config 05:50:17 anyone know? 05:51:15 hm, yeah, that would be a concern since what fonts-tweak-tool is about to do is the desktop-independent thing.. 05:51:44 juhp, ok, have not look through the gnome-tweak-tools code yet 05:52:50 tagoh: right 05:53:25 for KDE, I think it generated .fonts.conf in the past. 05:53:41 it is the usual problem we face - how to satisfy specific desktop and general 05:53:51 right 05:53:58 juhp, agree 05:54:13 epico_laptop, ok - guess we need to check what provides now 05:54:19 yes 05:54:37 * epico_laptop will check kde4 later. 05:54:45 okay 05:54:53 thanks - I'll try to have a poke around too 05:55:19 thanks juhp 05:55:48 dueno: so any progress or plans for (considering to) changing the default font for Korean? 05:57:08 my feeling is we should probably just go ahead in rawhide - but sending out a headsup at the same time would be good I think - maybe encourage people to try it and test it themselves in current releases 05:57:49 juhp: hm, yeah, that's an idea - dunno how many people will try on rawhide though 05:58:22 sure but at least they will see the warning :) 05:58:50 yep. good to send a mail at the list 05:58:53 and some may be interested to try it out themselves 05:58:59 to 05:59:08 right 05:59:32 we could also make it a mini feature 05:59:46 that would be transparent at least 06:00:05 given that we'll change it, it should be mentioned in the relnotes anyway, though 06:00:10 sure 06:00:59 dueno: can you make some progress for that? 06:01:48 anything else on fonts and rendering? 06:02:52 tagoh: not any update, there are some news bug reported last week 06:02:53 tagoh: sure, will post a mail on the list 06:04:00 .bug 751566 06:04:02 pravins: Bug 751566 Shape of U+0472/U+0473 wrong - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=751566 06:05:25 dueno: thanks 06:05:27 pravins: aha 06:05:29 tagoh: i will work at the end of month on these bugs 06:05:40 okay, thanks 06:06:32 anything else we are missing in the agenda? 06:08:11 otherwise will close the meeting shortly. 06:10:03 okay, thanks everyone for the meeting! 06:10:55 #endmeeting
