18:19:53 <brainycmurf> - Owen says he got the worst parts fixed. "It should work most of the time for most people".
18:19:55 <brainycmurf> The remaining issues are hopefully corner cases. Allan suggests that we should perhaps
18:19:57 <brainycmurf> reduce the emphasis on reliability in release notes. Owen says the biggest remaining issue
18:19:59 <brainycmurf> may be due to the threading model and may need a workaround, even though Philip says
18:20:01 <brainycmurf> threading model changes will not happen this release.
18:20:03 <brainycmurf> - Neal mentions that he fixed some wireplumber issues, and that landed yesterday.
18:20:05 <brainycmurf> Neal also discovered that classic mode doesn't work with Wayland except in RHEL8.
18:20:07 <brainycmurf> MR here: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell-extensions/-/merge_requests/195
18:20:11 <brainycmurf> - We have a mutter fix for random scrolling during edit in text views, it is still in pending:

18:20:15 <brainycmurf> - RC2 is here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Fedora_35_RC_1.2_Installation?rd=Test_Results:Current_Installation_Test
18:20:18 <brainycmurf> - Go-no-go meeting is on Thursday.
18:20:20 <brainycmurf> #topic Video review on GNOME UX for new users indicates UX issues
18:20:22 <brainycmurf> #link https://pagure.io/fedora-workstation/issue/247
18:20:24 <brainycmurf> Neal talks about lack of documentation and lack of detail in the onboarding tour.
18:20:26 <brainycmurf> Allan mentions that the limitations of the tour are known and more interactive onboarding
18:20:28 <brainycmurf> has been discussed. This is currently in the backlog as a design initiative ( https://gitlab.gnome.org/Teams/Design/os-mockups/-/issues/128) and needs developer
18:20:31 <brainycmurf> resources to adapt existing extension code that Endless has.
18:20:33 <brainycmurf> #topic Change gedit for gnome-text-editor in the default install
18:20:35 <brainycmurf> #link https://pagure.io/fedora-workstation/issue/248
18:20:37 <brainycmurf> Neal has packaged gnome-text-editor. It got stuck behind a new contributor working
18:20:41 <brainycmurf> GtkSourceView. Neal and Michael will get the review unstuck.
