02:53:46 <brainycmurf> #info glib2 still needs updating.
02:53:50 <brainycmurf> Michael is working on updating a downstream patch that we have for that.
02:53:52 <brainycmurf> #info Issues with Software - search, and installing software

02:54:15 <brainycmurf> Milan would like the configuration and downstream strings / translations to live in appstream-data package, not in gnome-software.
02:54:20 <brainycmurf> #topic F37 milestone issue review
02:54:22 <brainycmurf> #link https://pagure.io/fedora-workstation/issue/264
02:54:24 <brainycmurf> Appindicator protocol not going to happen for F37. Move to F38.
02:54:26 <brainycmurf> #link https://pagure.io/fedora-workstation/issue/293
02:54:28 <brainycmurf> Should we take a more active role to pick a default wallpaper for F38? Ongoing discussion.
02:54:30 <brainycmurf> Allan: We should have a vision who the target audience is and choose a wallpaper for that audience. Otherwise it is just back and forth one person saying "I like it", another saying "I don't like it".
02:54:33 <brainycmurf> Michael wants to have requirements for  the wallpapers for F38 and give the wallpaper team time to fullfill them. Geometric shapes? Allan to talk to some other designers who can help join the wallpaper design community process for F38.
02:54:37 <brainycmurf> #link https://pagure.io/fedora-workstation/issue/327
02:54:39 <brainycmurf> Fixed.
02:54:41 <brainycmurf> #topic Improve GTK4 font rendering by default for 1080p displays
02:54:43 <brainycmurf> #link https://pagure.io/fedora-workstation/issue/295
02:54:45 <brainycmurf> Michael's proposal: The current default doesn't look good. Flip the default for hinting downstream. We'd deviate from upstream, which is not ideal.
02:54:50 <brainycmurf> Matthias is not aware of bugs in the current implementation. It's just people who prefer different looks. He's also fine with toggling the compat setting downstream.
02:54:53 <brainycmurf> #agreed We'll enable hinting downstream. Michael to do it.
02:54:55 <brainycmurf> #action Michael to do downstream change to enable hinting in gtk4
02:54:57 <brainycmurf> #topic Remove Photos from the default apps
02:54:59 <brainycmurf> #link https://pagure.io/fedora-workstation/issue/164
02:55:01 <brainycmurf> Photos is "fixed" to work in F37 by removing all the online accounts functionality. It's basically unmaintained upstream.
02:55:04 <brainycmurf> #topic Evaluate the state of gnome-calendar
