Is there anything important that's missing? Will it reach the intended target audiences, and does it capture main selling points? 21:06:51 <brainycmurf> Neal would like the landing page to clearly show the choices are you can get it preinstalled or download and install it; and list the makes (maybe also models) that offer Fedora preinstalled. 21:06:54 <brainycmurf> Tomas and Neal discuss the screenshot/example of Calendar app versus the Notifications integration which looks better and is more useful 21:06:57 <brainycmurf> Owen it's a bit weak on developer specific branding, but overall the balance is probably OK 21:06:59 <brainycmurf> Neal developer.fpo should emphasize and promote the developer specific aspect rather than wearing most everyone out on a long scroll of features 21:07:02 <brainycmurf> Owen agreed, developer portal is a separate topic 21:07:04 <brainycmurf> Allan is there enough content for such a page? 21:07:06 <brainycmurf> Neal after F36, we should ideate and consider what could go on that page, see if there's enough and what to showcase 21:07:09 <brainycmurf> Some further discussion on built by you section 21:07:11 <brainycmurf> #topic Dual Boot Windows UI/UX with Windows disk encryption enabled by default 21:07:13 <brainycmurf> #link https://pagure.io/fedora-workstation/issue/278 21:07:17 <brainycmurf> #Defered to next meeting 21:07:19 <brainycmurf> #topic New Anaconda UI 21:07:21 <brainycmurf> Review feedback to the installer team 21:07:23 <brainycmurf> #link https://pagure.io/fedora-workstation/issue/289 21:07:25 <brainycmurf> Allan has had a fair amount of discussions with development teams and stakeholders, still soliciting feedback on things that are missing or problematic about the current installer; discussion around kiosk mode vs locked down Shell session; there are some gaps in understanding desktop linux land that are hopefully being shored up (Allan and Michael are part of that discussion with the installer developers). 21:07:30 <brainycmurf> Allan has looked at Ubiquity - once you get into it, quite a lot of features 21:07:32 <brainycmurf> Michael - it's going away as it currently exists, being rewritten 21:07:34 <brainycmurf> #topic Announcements, status updates 21:07:36 <brainycmurf> GNOME 42 now in RC 21:07:38 <brainycmurf> Chris asks about getting it into F36 beta, if it's practical in particular if slip is likely, it's definitely preferred, lots of bug fixes 21:07:41 <brainycmurf> #action cmurf will inquire 21:07:43 <brainycmurf> Consider another GNOME test day? 21:07:47 <brainycmurf> Tomas mentions state of VSCode work, getting it into 3rd party repo, currently blocked on missing AppStream data 21:07:50 <brainycmurf> #info Add VSCode to the 3rd party repos 21:07:52 <brainycmurf> #link https://pagure.io/fedora-workstation/issue/283 21:07:54 <brainycmurf> #info The minutes from last week have been posted online. 21:07:56 <brainycmurf> #link https://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-meeting-2/2022-03-02/workstation.2022-03-02-04.51.log.html 21:09:17 <brainycmurf> #endmeeting
