06:09:33 <juhp> so next step would be to come up with a list/patch?
06:10:29 <juhp> pravins, (it is holiday today in Germany btw)
06:11:02 <pravins> juhp: ohh, i was not aware. Holiday already started in Germany :)
06:11:16 <anish_> yeah we need to add xkb layouts in xconfig.xml
06:11:28 <juhp> anish_, ok
06:11:30 <anish_> so that it wont show them
06:11:55 <pravins> anish_: so we are targeting this for Fedora 22, right?
06:12:57 <anish_> yeah
06:13:18 <pravins> nice, we have good time, hopefully we can manage this with upstream.
06:13:25 <pravins> #info blacklisting xkb Indic layout is planned for Fedora 22.
06:14:26 <pravins> lets move ahead, we will discuss further in next meeting.
06:14:30 <juhp> anish_, evdev.extras.xml

06:18:44 <pravins> #action pravins to ping individual and try to get I18N wiki cleaup task done by Jan 15.
06:19:36 <juhp> pravins, yeah I guess
06:19:51 <juhp> well next :)
06:20:41 <pravins> i think we can make 4-5 mission statement targeting each domain fonts, IME, CLDR and other tools related to i18n.
06:21:19 <juhp> anish_, I think you could contact whot about the change to xkeyboard-config
06:21:44 <anish_> juhp, okay i will contact him
06:21:50 <juhp> thanks!
06:22:15 <juhp> pravins, maybe Jan is better?
06:22:33 <pravins> juhp: yes, lets start some activity again in Jan.
06:23:12 <pravins> #info will start creating few mission statements for i18n group.
06:23:24 <pravins> lets move ahead. we have interesting topics :)
06:23:33 <pravins> #topic New topics
06:23:33 <pravins> #info #40: Fedora 22 planning (pravins)
06:23:56 <pravins> So as of now, we have 3 Change proposals
06:24:00 <pravins> 1. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Lohit2_Odia_Telugu
06:24:20 <pravins> from paragan https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/DnfLangpacksPlugin
06:24:32 <pravins> one from anish_ https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/ibus_devanglish
06:24:49 <pravins> all these 3 are self contained changes.
06:24:54 <juhp> anish_, nice name ;o)
06:25:11 <anish_> :)
06:25:25 <juhp> anish_, would calling it ibus-devanagari be strange though?
06:25:39 <pravins> juhp: in India, there is few new languages are emerging like (Hinglish- Hindi + English)
06:25:51 <juhp> I can imagine
06:25:52 <pravins> people mix words lot.
06:26:13 <juhp> anyway just wondering about the best naming...
06:26:54 <juhp> and potentially it could be generalized beyond devanagari perhaps later - but that could also be covered by a renamed if needed I suppose
06:27:02 <juhp> rename
06:27:10 <juhp> anyway
06:27:37 <pravins> truly speaking i will recommend IME, independent of ibus. It can help us to get more users across platforms.
06:27:50 <pravins> one can simple download and test without dependency on ibus.
06:27:52 <juhp> ah a library?  right
06:27:59 <juhp> hmm
06:28:00 <pravins> for Input framework
06:28:14 <juhp> hmm
06:28:28 <pravins> fujiwarat: hi
06:28:29 <juhp> why not an ibus ime too though?
06:28:51 <fujiwarat> pravins: hi
06:29:03 <pravins> yes, we can start with it.
06:29:46 <juhp> I think a library and IME might be good but yeah library could also be refactored later
06:29:58 <pravins> yes, this looks good idea.
06:30:26 <juhp> anish_, python?
06:30:45 <pravins> paragan: DnfLangpacksPlugin is still in Incomplete stage.
06:30:48 <anish_> juhp, yeah python at first then i will use vala for library
06:31:12 <juhp> ok
06:31:26 <pravins> fujiwarat: I gone through your comments on https://fedorahosted.org/i18n/ticket/40#comment:2
06:31:35 * juhp notes that ibus-kkc can also do English to Japanese transliteration
06:31:57 <pravins> are you planning any particular major upstream release during Fedora 22 life cycle.
06:32:28 <anish_> Yeah I target F22
06:34:05 <paragan> pravins, I will finish that Change by this week
06:34:12 * pravins thinking how can we submit ibus improvement as a Change proposal. My only intention with Change proposals we can get better testing and some recognition as well.
06:34:45 <pravins> tagoh_ juhp any idea ^^
06:35:09 <pravins> 5 major bugfix improvements are planned for ibus
06:35:18 <pravins> Use language icons instead of layout icons for xkb ibus engines on non-gnome panel.
06:35:18 <pravins> Preload ibus engines on gnome desktop to reduce the launching time when users switch the engines.
06:35:18 <pravins> Disable IME on gnome-shell lock screen by panel instead of ibus engines.
06:35:18 <pravins> Fix a kde5 Korean issue.
06:35:39 <juhp> fujiwarat, language icons means similar to gnome?
06:35:51 <fujiwarat> juhp: right
06:35:53 <tagoh_> pravins: we could add bug list to nice-to-test for test event maybe?
06:35:54 <juhp> I see
06:36:41 <pravins> tagoh_: nice idea.
06:36:42 <tagoh_> that should works enough for them.
06:36:51 <juhp> personally I prefer layout codes to lang codes, but maybe consistency is more important?  hmm
06:37:37 <pravins> tagoh_: yes, fair enough. We can get good testing with that.
06:37:59 <pravins> #action add ibus improvement/fixes as a nice-to-test in testing event.
06:38:32 <pravins> tagoh_: do we have testing page for Fedora 22 available anywhere? i think good we can start collecting test cases from now.
06:40:08 <tagoh_> pravins: no, not yet. planning to move to the TestdayApp in f22. or we could open a ticket and add a note there?
06:40:45 <pravins> tagoh_: yeah, we decided last time. can you help for this?
06:41:07 <pravins> juhp: we (me and mike) had few email conversation with carlos last week regarding proposing glibc Unicode 7.0 update as a change propose for F22.
06:41:19 <pravins> carlso said he will help as much as possible.
06:41:23 <tagoh_> pravins: sure. will open a ticket for f22 testday event then.
06:41:31 <pravins> thank you tagoh_ :)
06:42:03 <pravins> i think i i will go ahead and propose change and add siddhesh and mike as owner as well.
06:42:04 <juhp> pravins, aha good
06:42:16 <juhp> okay
06:42:31 <fujiwarat> juhp: A user requested to change layouts to languages.
06:42:38 <fujiwarat> https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/ibus-user/RgZKg9c3js4
06:42:46 <juhp> pravins, so patches may be included in f22?
06:42:52 <pravins> #action pravins to create change proposal for glibc unicode 7.0 update.
06:44:07 <pravins> juhp: carlos said Fedora 22 will be release with glibc 2.22
06:44:25 <pravins> so we do have chance to get our patches in upstream by glibc 2.22
06:44:44 <juhp> fujiwarat, ok
06:44:44 <pravins> next glibc release in Jan is 2.21
06:45:00 <juhp> okay cool
06:46:09 <pravins> epico: ueno do you have any Change proposal plan for Fedora 22?
06:46:20 <epico> not currently
06:46:34 <juhp> I want to ask him about the status of reducing the default number of installed/setup locales too
06:46:49 <pravins> epico: no problem. thanks :)
06:47:05 <epico> welcome
06:47:50 <pravins> juhp: aha, right he mentioned in flock. I did not saw any plan recently for same.
06:48:00 <pravins> lets move for next topic
