Keep us in the loop on how that goes nasirhm, I am curious too! 16:23:36 <x3mboy> Ok, so moving from the text, we will have the screenshots now 16:23:48 <fedi3bridgerbot1> <jwflory> re: Fedora Spins site. Anyone looked at the screenshots from @aashu_x yet? 16:23:58 <x3mboy> I already linked issue 30 16:23:59 <nasirhm> @jwflory, Sure :) 16:24:02 <x3mboy> And they look great 16:24:07 <fedi3bridgerbot1> <jwflory> Should we pass this over to the Websites Team now? 16:24:17 <fedi3bridgerbot1> <jwflory> We can just reference the images uploaded there in the websites repo ticket 16:24:37 <x3mboy> @jwflory, I think yes, we can vote here and then just put them there 16:24:41 <x3mboy> I'm +1 16:25:04 <nasirhm> +1 16:25:04 <x3mboy> I still think we should ship a white on black terminal, but defaults are defaults 16:25:12 <fedi3bridgerbot1> <jwflory> +1 from me :) I feel good knowing they also came from our WIP official ISO 16:25:38 <fedi3bridgerbot1> <jwflory> x3mboy: I agree too on white-on-black – maybe a follow-up for F35 ;) 16:25:49 <x3mboy> Oh BTW the coloring link you share it's awesome @jwflory 16:25:56 <fedi3bridgerbot1> <jwflory> Right?!? 16:26:00 <nasirhm> x3mboy: It could be possible but we'll only be able to do it for the Live Environment, or else we would have to modify the package. 16:26:08 <x3mboy> And knowing the fedora palette of colors My i3 looks more fedorian now! 16:26:55 <x3mboy> nasirhm: I know, we should stick with the default and then everyone can customize 16:27:02 <x3mboy> Back on topic 16:27:15 <x3mboy> So we agreed both text and screenshots for the website? 16:27:23 * jwf switches from Telegram to IRC 16:27:25 <jwf> (I think there is a small delay on messages from IRC going to Telegram…) 16:27:31 <jwf> Oh let me look at the elevator pitch too really quick 16:28:05 <nasirhm> Yep :) 16:28:09 <jwf> +1 tagline: "The Fedora operating system experience featuring a tiling window manager" 16:28:35 <jwf> And +1 to the pitch :) 16:28:39 <jwf> It all looks good to me! 16:29:42 <x3mboy> #agreed Pitch, tagline and screenshots for the website are approve to move to the website issue 16:30:34 <x3mboy> defolos: didn't vote, but he's busy and he trust in us 16:31:09 <x3mboy> #topic Ticket triage 16:31:21 <x3mboy> #link https://pagure.io/i3-sig/Fedora-i3-Spin/issues 16:31:54 <x3mboy> From biggest to smallest we have #34 16:32:05 <x3mboy> #link https://pagure.io/i3-sig/Fedora-i3-Spin/issue/34 16:32:33 <x3mboy> I'm agree with the change to rawhide 16:33:08 <jwf> `rawhide` actually does make sense to me, in this case. It is Fedora-specific but it is very clear about expectations for when changes to the kickstarts will appear in the next compose of the spin 16:33:20 <jwf> * next compose of all spins 16:33:39 <jwf> +1 rawhide 16:34:07 <nasirhm> +1 rawhide, +1 main. 16:34:18 <x3mboy> defolos: agreed with rawhide in the issue, so 16:34:34 <x3mboy> #agreed Rename master branch to rawhide 16:34:38 <jwf> We can give odilhao a chance to weigh in, but it seems fairly noncontroversial :) 16:34:51 <jwf> We just have to update our local git repos after the move 16:34:57 <jwf> I can take that action for today 16:34:59 <x3mboy> Oh, odilhao 16:35:20 <x3mboy> #action jwf to rename the master branch 16:35:25 <jwf> #action jwf Change default git branch from `master` to `rawhide` for pagure.io/i3-sig/Fedora-i3-Spin 16:35:30 <jwf> Oh hah jinx! 16:35:35 <x3mboy> And I forgot 16:35:37 <nasirhm> jwf++ 16:35:38 <nasirhm> #undo 16:35:38 <zodbot> Removing item from minutes: ACTION by jwf at 16:35:25 : jwf Change default git branch from `master` to `rawhide` for pagure.io/i3-sig/Fedora-i3-Spin 16:35:42 * odilhao reading the messages 16:35:55 * nasirhm waves to @odilhao 16:36:03 <x3mboy> #action nasirhm to work on the kickstart file with releng 16:36:12 <x3mboy> #chair odilhao 16:36:12 <zodbot> Current chairs: defolos jwf jwflory nasirhm odilhao x3mboy 16:37:02 <x3mboy> odilhao: o/ 16:37:19 <odilhao> +1 to rename it to rawhide 16:38:41 <odilhao> should we add the docs as well on this issue? 16:38:59 <jwf> Yeah, I can do both repos 16:39:19 <jwf> For docs, I will do `main` just because that is the Fedora Docs standard for new repos once Pagure switches over 16:39:46 <nasirhm> +1 for `rawhide` for spin and `main` for docs. 16:40:08 <jwf> I think we are good to move ahead on this one 16:40:25 <jwf> x3mboy: Any other tickets of noteworthiness to discuss during ticket triage? 16:40:34 <x3mboy> 2 16:40:51 <x3mboy> #link https://pagure.io/i3-sig/Fedora-i3-Spin/issue/33 16:41:10 <x3mboy> Someone figured out where this bug is coming from? 16:41:20 <defolos> nope, haven't looked yet 16:41:23 <x3mboy> I think is the i3-wizzard thing 16:41:31 <nasirhm> defolos: 16:41:36 <x3mboy> But can't really say 16:41:57 <nasirhm> x3mboy: Yep, It's the `wizard` and only occurs when i3 is fresh installed. 16:42:42 <x3mboy> Yeap, and also occurs installing i3 separate (in another DE) 16:42:52 <x3mboy> Confirmed, so how we will work on that? 16:43:13 <nasirhm> defolos: Do we have any patches included when we package i3 ? 16:43:36 <jwf> Hah, I guess it would take building an i3 Spin to find this bug in Fedora 16:43:36 <defolos> no 16:43:38 <nasirhm> Here's the bug on Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1908152 16:43:57 <nasirhm> jwf: 😆 16:44:09 <x3mboy> I think is a simple move, not sure how it worked before, but I have one on $mod+d and the other on $mod 16:44:16 <x3mboy> * I think is a simple move, not sure how it worked before, but I have one on $mod+d and the other on $mod+Shift*d 16:44:42 <nasirhm> defolos: It could be upstream, Are there any minor updates from upstream ? 16:45:48 <x3mboy> <jwf "Hah, I guess it would take build"> And I think it's not only on fedora, but I can't tell 16:46:16 <defolos> nasirhm: no, i3 is up to date 16:46:17 <x3mboy> Ok, so the plan is to patch it and submit the patch upstream? 16:47:07 <jwf> Do we have an champion to take this fix upstream? :) 16:47:42 <nasirhm> I can try pulling it and compiling it locally to make sure it's an upstream issue. 16:47:56 <nasirhm> and can report it afterwards. 16:48:35 <defolos> https://github.com/i3/i3/issues/4304 16:48:36 <defolos> found it 16:48:44 <defolos> there's a patch 16:49:04 <x3mboy> Excellent! 16:49:04 <defolos> I'll cherry pick it and then this will be fixed 16:49:10 <x3mboy> defolos++ 16:49:14 <x3mboy> defolos++ 16:49:31 <jwf> defolos++ 16:49:34 <nasirhm> defolos++ :) 16:49:53 <x3mboy> #action defolos to cerry pick the patch for #33 and fix it 16:49:53 <jwf> This is one of those times where I am thinking, "git is awesome" 16:50:24 <x3mboy> Ok 16:50:36 <nasirhm> Linus ++ for creating Git 🌟 16:50:36 <x3mboy> Moving on 16:50:42 <x3mboy> #link https://pagure.io/i3-sig/Fedora-i3-Spin/issue/32 16:51:16 <x3mboy> My thinking when I create this ticket was that we need to provide guidance to newcomers 16:51:27 <x3mboy> Power users normally help themselves 16:51:49 <nasirhm> ++ to jwf's comment for F35 16:51:50 <x3mboy> I wasn't thinking in maintaining an application 16:52:02 <x3mboy> And I didn't take a look around 16:52:19 <x3mboy> But as suggested by defolos I was looking what were out ther 16:52:57 <x3mboy> And found regolith-linux, that it was part of the inspiration for the spin (at the very beginning at least) 16:53:12 <x3mboy> #link https://regolith-linux.org/screenshot-remontoire_hu0072e1a729bbceaae2457311ea01b479_3441088_636x0_resize_catmullrom_2.png 16:53:19 <x3mboy> They have this "menu" 16:54:04 <x3mboy> That makes me remember that Unity had something similar 16:54:43 <x3mboy> Where a keystroke launches a cheat sheet of keyboard shortcuts 16:55:01 <x3mboy> So, not sure if we should take this one, or leave it to research 16:55:39 <jwf> #idea Keystroke launching a cheatsheet of keyboard shortcuts 16:55:45 <jwf> x3mboy: Honestly I am OK leaving this one to research 16:55:49 <x3mboy> * #link https://regolith-linux.org/screenshot-remontoire.png 16:55:54 <jwf> It is a really cool idea! But I think it is a back-burner project for now 16:55:58 <x3mboy> Me too 16:56:05 <defolos> leave it on research for now 16:56:16 <defolos> we can do something with that once we have an MVP out 16:56:23 <jwf> defolos: Was about to say the same :) 16:56:26 <nasirhm> ++ to have it on research. 16:56:56 <x3mboy> Ok 16:56:59 <jwf> BTW, I have to jump for another work call now, sorry!
