#fedora-meeting: Workstation WG

Meeting started by stickster at 15:00:10 UTC (full logs).

Meeting summary

  1. Roll call (stickster, 15:00:16)
    1. stickster reverses order of agenda since aday is here (stickster, 15:07:51)

  2. Default installed apps (stickster, 15:08:03)
    1. https://mail.gnome.org/archives/release-team/2016-January/msg00000.html -- proposed upstream moduleset changes (stickster, 15:11:14)
    2. Photos is still missing some arguably important core features. While we don't necessarily need parity to make a default app switch, consensus is that Photos is not yet meeting a minimum bar to make it a comfortable default, but probably will be in GNOME 3.22/F25 (stickster, 15:22:49)
    3. Music is in a similar situation (stickster, 15:23:05)
    4. Shotwell has an additional issue -- not maintained any longer (at least main fork). Meeting attendees seemed to agree it's worth taking on the risk of bugs/issues, rather than switching the default prematurely. (stickster, 15:25:57)
    5. IDEA: After F24/F25 branching, switch default in Rawhide (pre-F25) to Music + Photos, with time to revert later if upstream (3.22) isn't judged ready; F24 defaults (Shotwell, RB) stay same as F23 for now (stickster, 15:31:43)
    6. Removing empathy seems to be the general consensus as well, nothing controversial. Note that mcatanzaro has a patch prepared that will remove configuration of accounts in g-c-c (making them disappear in that view to avoid confusion) (stickster, 15:50:48)
    7. AGREED: (non-voting) General consensus with mcatanzaro's proposal to keep Workstation default apps aligned with core moduleset upstream, modulo specific changes (right now, Rhythmbox + Shotwell) (stickster, 15:52:23)

  3. Missing dnf-langpacks (stickster, 15:52:37)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1286527 (stickster, 15:53:11)
    2. seems to be excluded due to "-@standard" declaraction in fedora-live-base.ks (stickster, 15:59:51)
    3. IDEA: mcatanzaro suggests just adding to workstation comps to compensate (stickster, 16:00:09)
    4. ACTION: stickster reply on list to Parag to see if we can get fixed (stickster, 16:01:08)
