    1. https://pagure.io/i3-sig/Fedora-i3-Spin/issue/41 (jwf|w, 16:16:24)
    2. IDEA: (–) lack of default tool/utility to change brightness (jwf|w, 16:17:32)
    3. IDEA: (–) azote shipped for wallpaper management, but does not run (jwf|w, 16:18:55)
    4. IDEA: (+) Caught many bugs during Beta freeze and fixed problems before releases (jwf|w, 16:20:56)
    5. IDEA: (+) We have nightly ISO composes thanks to RelEng / Fedora QA! (jwf|w, 16:21:14)
    6. IDEA: (+) The Respins SIG helped us with lessons learned and experience on common bugs with making Spins from kickstarts (jwf|w, 16:21:37)
    7. IDEA: (+) Great feedback from Reddit and Fedora Magazine, it helps to publish news there! (jwf|w, 16:23:11)
    8. A common question we were asked us why not Sway. (jwf|w, 16:23:47)
    9. IDEA: (–) Kickstarts are difficult to manage. We have different upstream versions (our Pagure repos) from downstream versions (RelEng composes and builds) (jwf|w, 16:26:20)
    10. IDEA: (–) Some advanced users were underwhelmed by the i3 Spin and that it was mostly vanilla i3. [Note: We are discussing a new package of default config changes.] (jwf|w, 16:31:48)
    11. IDEA: (–) urxvt was underwhelming as a default terminal. It was not the most aesthetically pleasing option. (jwf|w, 16:33:35)
    12. https://terminal.sexy/ (x3mboy, 16:33:51)
    13. IDEA: (–) Sometimes it was hard to know where to point newcomers on how they could help us with the Spin (jwf|w, 16:33:57)
    14. IDEA: (–) Lack of a welcome guide / on-boarding steps for new contributors on how to get involved (jwf|w, 16:36:21)
    15. IDEA: (–) Need better guidance on how to propose new articles or guides in the Fedora i3 SIG documentation (jwf|w, 16:36:47)
