It is hard to collect that information. I used that gnome page to help filling the default layouts for each language into langtable. 06:20:25 mfabian, okay - also my feeling 06:20:31 let me create a page on fedora wiki from our side 06:20:44 will add xkb layouts information there 06:20:49 paragan, great 06:20:50 paragan: thanks, thats very helpful. 06:21:05 (But langtable only has a list of default layouts, not a complete list and no information about exotic and rarely used or obsolete layouts) 06:21:16 mfabian, ok right 06:21:18 #action paragan to create list of xkb layout available in Fedora. 06:21:43 we could even filter the list or separate out the ones from langtable 06:22:01 juhp: do you means by identifying deprecated xkb layout, blacklist them as well in F22? 06:22:42 well ideally but not sure if there is enough time - mostly it is a question of upstreaming I feel 06:22:48 sure. 06:23:04 lets move ahead to next topic, will discuss more next time. 06:23:13 #topic Outstanding task 06:23:13 #info #35: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/I18N cleanup (i18n@lists.fedoraproject.org) 06:23:13 #link https://fedorahosted.org/i18n/ticket/35 06:23:39 nothing much on this. I identified Lohit fonts pages available, will create other pages soon. 06:23:50 http://piratepad.net/i18nchanges 06:24:52 pravins, thanks 06:25:27 juhp: regarding moving https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/I18N/IBus to https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/I18N/InputMethods i think its valid point and make more sense 06:26:50 hmm I am having trouble connecting there... 06:27:10 ah 06:27:46 pravins, not sure about that 06:28:13 I don't think we need to "debrand" ibus per se 06:28:25 in this context 06:28:58 juhp: you mean to just moving page? from /I18n/ to /i18n/InputMethods ? 06:29:15 ah you mean to InputMethods/IBus 06:29:24 yes. 06:29:31 no clubbing both together. 06:30:20 it could be done I suppose 06:30:54 juhp: sure. 06:31:06 an alternative occurred to me - to move IBus out of I18N/ - I dunno - not so strong feeling about it 06:31:23 i have also sorted i18n people alphabetically before some time. 06:31:32 maybe hence the '?' 06:31:43 any more idea for improving https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/I18N#People_.28Alphabetically.29 ? 06:32:34 yeah, i think we can ignore also same. Might be just good to link Ibus on InputMethod page. That is more than sufficient. 06:32:40 pravins, thanks - I thinking to move People to a separate page perhaps - though a lot of people there who are not active now 06:32:56 pravins, ok 06:33:28 #info will add Ibus page link to /i18n/InputMethod page. 06:33:45 juhp: right, number of inactive members. 06:33:53 perhaps the list could be split into active and former contributors perhaps? 06:34:07 good idea 06:34:15 I feel that is more meaningful 06:35:04 we could even mention specific contributions in some cases 06:35:46 umm, normally one mention most of things about him on his fedora user page. 06:36:08 do we really need People page? 06:37:09 tagoh__: at least no need presently. 06:37:40 i feel, presently we will update at same place. 06:38:09 Please check and update if you feel anything there. 06:39:25 lets move ahead for next topic. 06:39:35 #topic New topics 06:39:35 #info #39: Bugs corner (pravins) 06:39:35 #link https://fedorahosted.org/i18n/ticket/39 06:40:29 just before some time i gone through an interesting message regarding EPEL5 06:40:33 #link https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/fonts-bugs/2015-January/027474.html 06:40:39 "Orphaned fontpackages RPM on EPEL 5 - workaround possible?" 06:41:07 pravins, (that is true - I was more thinking for inactive former contributors) 06:42:04 aha 06:42:31 why was fedora-packager removed from epel5? 06:43:07 well I can think of some potential reasons - just curious 06:43:31 * pravins clueless :( 06:44:31 we need to check why its removed first. Might be some bugzilla around. 06:45:04 anyway sounds good to have fontpackages back 06:45:18 #action search why fedora-packager was removed from epel5 06:45:47 actually don't even understand why drop fedora-packager would remove fontpackages? 06:46:10 juhp: we are using font_pkg macro now. 06:46:40 aha, fedora-packager should not affect it. 06:47:15 will discuss more about same in next meeting with more information :) 06:47:32 nod 06:47:38 ok 06:48:33 #info #40: Fedora 22 planning (pravins) 06:48:33 #link https://fedorahosted.org/i18n/ticket/40 06:48:44 juhp, I think its because of GitPython got removed in EPEL5 06:49:14 we have 3 self contained proposals in plan. 06:49:23 1. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/ibus_devanglish 06:50:00 paragan, aha 06:51:15 anish_: you need to add few fields there and move page to ChangeReadyForWrangler. 06:51:41 I am changing my proposal a bit, instead of ibus input method 06:51:58 i am doing it for m17n 06:52:14 and only for Marathi language and naming it as Minglish 06:52:27 Last updated: (DATE) , Proposal owners: and also good to have "User Experience" also there even though its self contained change. 06:52:39 anish_: nice. yes good to start with minimal. 06:52:42 yesterday i submitted patch for it in m17n upstream 06:53:07 anish_: so planning to change name of proposal? 06:53:15 yes 06:53:20 sure. 06:53:34 2. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/DnfLangpacksPlugin 06:54:02 paragan: any update on same? 06:54:03 I will update this in 2 days and move to ChangeReadyForWrangler 06:54:13 this is not full plugin feature 06:54:15 paragan: thats great !! 06:54:38 as I think required dnf api will not be available in F22 06:55:21 At least all the required CLI commands are working fine :) 06:55:50 only automatic pickup of langpacks for new conditional package installation will not happen 06:56:21 that is good start considering F22 has DNF as a default package manager change accepted http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/ReplaceYumWithDNF 06:56:35 it would still be nice to work out how to inject langpacks into dnf transactions 06:57:03 I will talk to dnf developers for this 06:57:27 #info anish_ changing to self contained change name from devanglish to minglish (marathi). 06:57:39 next one change proposal in mine. 06:58:01 3. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Lohit2_Odia_Telugu 06:58:41 I think we will take more 15 minutes than schedule time today. 06:59:00 i have already moved change proposal to Ready for Wrangler. 06:59:14 mfabian: i was thinking for Unicode 7.0 update proposal. 06:59:25 but when we say Unicode 7.0, scope is bit bigger. 06:59:44 Glibc_Unicode_7_0 looks good i think 06:59:54 at least for now. 07:01:13 Yes. 07:01:29 will talk with siddhesh today and add him also in owner. 07:01:50 #action pravins to talk with siddhesh regarding Glibc_Unicode_7_0 change proposal. 07:02:14 anything else on Fedora 22 planning? 07:02:40 #link https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/ibus_devanglish 07:02:46 #link https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/DnfLangpacksPlugin 07:02:56 #link https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Lohit2_Odia_Telugu 07:03:26 lets move to next topic. 07:03:36 #info #41: Need to check whether any F22 proposed change affect i18n (pravins) 07:03:36 #link https://fedorahosted.org/i18n/ticket/41 07:03:57 New system wide changes from out last meeting are as follows. 07:04:06 http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/ReplaceYumWithDNF 07:04:40 The one still not accepted but in "ready_for_fesco" and "announced" stage are 07:04:54 #link https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/LibinputForXorg 07:05:08 "Replace the current (low-level) input xorg drivers with libinput using the xorg-x11-drv-libinput wrapper.

When we suppose to start cleaning up test cases and adding new test cases? 07:12:52 not yet started to work on the migration though 07:12:53 2. when we will do test event? 07:14:29 well, I don't even have a better answer for those questions but for 1, I'd say that would be good to do that sooner rather than later. 07:14:41 tagoh__: +1 07:14:54 yes 07:15:47 tagoh__, can we automate few test cases so that after each release we can run them kind of sanity tests 07:16:01 sure tagoh__ once you done migration, will start working on same. 07:16:08 anish_: nice idea. 07:18:54 ideally we should have some automated test case. But for what things that is question :) 07:18:56 sure. dunno if QE has any plans for that. to make more effective, we could polish the list of the test cases which isn't possible to be automated perhaps. 07:19:24 good to discuss it including that point maybe. 07:19:28 anish_: thanks for raising this point, we will debate more on it in upcoming meeting. 07:19:37 tagoh__: yes. 07:19:47 will move to our last topic. 07:19:50 #topic Open Floor 07:21:06 will wait for 2 minutes and close the meeting. 07:23:33 #endmeeting
