19:15:41 <ianweller> - supplemental wallpaper submission period ends 19 Aug.
19:15:41 <ianweller> - need to iterate F14 wallpaper design so we can start working on the
19:15:41 <ianweller> splashes and banners.
19:15:43 <ianweller> - any other F14 artwork ideas?
19:15:58 <ianweller> so the feedback period on alpha wallpapers is *next meeting*
19:16:04 <ianweller> er, closes next meeting
19:16:21 <ianweller> anything on this topic? (1 min before next topic)
19:16:32 <inkscaper> I'm started  process creating Alpha release website banner , based on my template , with trying use Comfortaa and Droids Sans fonts.
19:16:47 <ianweller> yay! :)
19:17:03 <finalzone> I still have to submit extra wallpapers
19:17:40 <ianweller> that ends next thursday (not this week but the next)
19:17:40 <inkscaper> #link https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/F14_Artwork_Banners_Submissions
19:18:09 <ianweller> that looks nice.
19:18:34 <finalzone> interesting indeed
19:18:38 <ianweller> anything else? (15 sec)
19:18:56 <ianweller> #topic branding fonts project
19:19:22 <finalzone> Comfortaa is now part of Fedora repository
19:19:24 <ianweller> the consensus last week was to use cantarell and comfortaa, iirc
19:19:30 <ianweller> finalzone: woo! :D
19:20:03 <ianweller> i'm still working on the brand guidelines draft... i'll probably be making a blog post this week sometime asking for help
19:20:19 * ianweller puts that on his todo list for tomorrow
19:20:58 <inkscaper> finalzone +1
19:21:22 <ianweller> action item from last week was: ACTION: Emichan will add the ability to compare droid and dejavu for
19:21:25 <ianweller> cyrillic in her font compare app
19:21:33 <finalzone> name of package is aajohan-comfortaa-fonts
19:21:36 <ianweller> Emichan: any updates on that?
19:21:40 <ianweller> (also hello)
19:21:49 <Emichan> it's up! hi - sorry i'm late :)
19:21:53 <finalzone> greeting emichan
19:22:18 <Emichan> I just added deja vu as a font option and the cyrillic text sample is still up
19:22:36 <ianweller> #link http://www.fightingcrane.com/emily/fedora/fontfight/
19:23:22 <pcon> i know I had some problems w/ one of the droid fonts and Chrome and non-latin letters
19:23:28 <ianweller> last week's final proposal was to use cantarell where possible, then fall back to droid sans (and droid sans fallback)
19:23:51 <ianweller> i'm going to send an email to the list on this so we can get this taken care of and finalized.
19:23:57 <ianweller> #action ianweller send mail to list on branding fonts
19:23:57 <finalzone> afaik, cantarell is not packaged yet
19:24:24 <ianweller> anybody willing to do that?
19:24:31 <finalzone> I will
19:24:52 <ianweller> #action finalzone package cantarell fonts
19:25:19 * ianweller is searching yum to see if we have droid sans fallback
19:26:00 <ianweller> it appears we don't. i'll investigate more and file a bug against the package if we need to.
19:26:08 <ianweller> #action ianweller to investigate droid sans fallback in fedora
19:26:11 <ianweller> anything else? (1 min)
19:27:17 <ianweller> #topic fedora website updates
19:27:23 <ianweller> i know nothing on this :)
19:27:32 <ianweller> i know mizmo and sijis do(?)
19:27:47 <ianweller> but if nobody has anything on this, we'll go to the next topic (i'll wait 2 min)
19:28:07 <Emichan> afaik we were still gathering feedback on the latest mockups
19:28:24 <Emichan> i'm not current on that though
19:28:25 <ianweller> do you know what feedback we have gotten? in general
19:28:27 <ianweller> oh ok
19:28:49 <Emichan> mizmo is the one to ask about that, so...
19:28:56 <ianweller> we can leave that for next week then
19:29:36 <ianweller> #topic UX projects
19:29:58 <ianweller> afaict this is also a mizmo thing, but if anybody has anything on it, go (1 min wait)
19:30:15 <Emichan> yep mizmo is the lead on this
19:30:49 <ianweller> alright let's move on then
19:30:53 <Emichan> she was going to do a user experience write up on the usb creator
19:31:01 <ianweller> <nod>
19:31:03 <Emichan> should be in last meetings minutes
19:31:19 <ianweller> #info stuff on this topic is in last meeting's minutes
19:31:21 <ianweller> #topic open floor
19:31:26 <ianweller> anything else guys? otherwise i'll close up in 3
19:31:32 <Emichan> gnome shell!
19:31:39 <ianweller> :o
19:31:43 <ianweller> what's a-happenin' there
19:31:45 <Emichan> we talked about gnome-shell theming last meeting
19:32:07 * ianweller didn't read too far into that.
19:32:11 <Emichan> i posted a gnome-shell extension in the mailing list that will help with that
19:32:18 <finalzone> gnome-shell uses css for theme right?
19:32:42 <Emichan> right - it's not completely standard css, but if you're familiar with css its not too hard to figure out
19:33:19 <Emichan> there's a gnome-shell.css file, edit that and restart the shell to see the changes
19:33:42 <Emichan> or you can install the extension I posted to the ml, and you can reload the theme without restarting the shell
19:34:12 <finalzone> i will check out
19:34:34 <Emichan> here's a link to download the extension http://www.fightingcrane.com/emily/fedora/Theme_Reloader_GS_Ext.tar.bz2
19:35:22 <Emichan> i've played with the theming already, but i don't have anything good enough to publish :)
19:36:28 <ianweller> anything else?
19:37:11 <ianweller> if not i'll lcose up in 30
19:37:17 <ianweller> and also learn to spepll
19:38:20 <ianweller> alright, thanks everybody, see you next week.
