We still feel the testday event is useful? 06:45:48 <juhp> I feel it is, but want to know what other people think 06:46:15 <juhp> s/Just checking?/Just checking/ 06:46:32 <paragan> I think its important as by doing that we first get general Fedora iso testing and then along with that we get testing of i18n packages and Changes 06:46:45 <juhp> okay good 06:48:21 <paragan> The reason to choose this date is if everything goes as per schedule then 06:48:46 <paragan> we will be having F28 beta released before this date otherwise 06:49:17 <paragan> we will be having any release candidate of frozen F28 which will be also okay for us to test i18n features on the test day. 06:49:42 <juhp> okay 06:49:44 <paragan> Can you please reply if you people are okay with this date? 06:49:47 <paragan> #chair 06:49:47 <zodbot> Current chairs: bhavin192 epico fujiwarat juhp mfabian paragan suanand tagoh 06:50:12 <juhp> so it is same place in schedule as for f27? 06:50:17 <mfabian> I think the date is OK. 06:51:08 <paragan> yes 06:51:13 <paragan> same place as for f27 06:51:14 <juhp> okay 06:51:26 <tagoh> may depends on changes we want to test? given that there are any drastic changes proposed, we may want to test it earlier than beta? dunno 06:51:29 <juhp> sounds fine to me then 06:51:30 * suanand thinks date is ok 06:51:41 <juhp> tagoh: hmm true 06:52:00 <juhp> tagoh: we could also have a separate test day for CJK fonts? 06:52:29 <tagoh> juhp: sure. that would be fine. 06:52:30 <juhp> in the long term I would also favourite more focused targeted test days where it makes sense 06:52:43 <juhp> erm favour 06:52:58 <paragan> tagoh, agree but we are going to have test day after " Change Checkpoint: 100% Code Complete Deadline " milestone 06:53:31 <juhp> also the translation deadline - though that should really be the l10n testday 06:54:19 <paragan> so both above milestone falls on 6th March and we are proposing 5th April 06:54:31 <juhp> yep 06:54:34 <juhp> I know 06:55:22 <paragan> it is difficult to choose between beta freeze to beta release rain date 06:55:31 <paragan> almost a month time 06:57:57 <paragan> if anyone want to propose any other date please do so now 06:58:27 <juhp> I think your proposal is good - so why don't we go with that for now 06:58:41 <paragan> cool 06:58:50 <tagoh> how about testing after "Change Checkpoint: Completion deadline (testable)" event? maybe still works enough for testing purpose no? 07:00:03 <paragan> I still think we should wait for Beta freeze 07:00:10 <juhp> tagoh: might be early 07:00:16 <tagoh> hm, okay 07:00:20 <juhp> tagoh: Then I would propose March 07:00:34 <juhp> ie after 100% 07:00:48 <paragan> if need early date then take 13th March 07:01:04 <paragan> one week after Beta freeze 07:01:10 <juhp> do we want to have any other test days? Maybe we should discuss the Changes first...? 07:02:12 <tagoh> juhp: perhaps 07:02:30 <paragan> Okay let's postpone the decision till next meeting then 07:02:43 <paragan> Let's move to next ticket. 07:02:48 <juhp> paragan: we could put those two suggestions in the ticket at least :) 07:03:11 <juhp> Yes there is still good time to think 07:03:11 <paragan> I have added 5th April there 07:03:27 <paragan> what other date to be added? 07:03:39 <juhp> 13th March that you suggeseted 07:03:43 <paragan> okay 07:04:15 <paragan> #info Let's discuss in the next meeting on this ticket, we got 2 suggestions 13th March and 5th April 2018 07:04:42 <paragan> #info #83: Tracker for Fedora 28 Changes (pnemade) 07:04:42 <paragan> #link https://pagure.io/i18n/issue/83 07:05:05 <paragan> Anyone already submitted any change for Fedora 28? 07:06:30 <paragan> If not please do so early and add link of that Change to this ticket. 07:07:28 <mfabian> I should submit a change for the collation changes in glibc, this is getting quite significant. 07:07:45 <paragan> good 07:08:15 <paragan> fujiwarat, you planning to submit any Change proposal for ibus? 07:08:34 <fujiwarat> yes next year. 07:09:11 <paragan> okay 07:09:22 <paragan> tagoh, you planning for fontconfig? 07:09:50 <tagoh> paragan: and default font changes yes. will do that shortly 07:10:22 <paragan> cool 07:10:58 <paragan> epico, any change proposals from you? 07:11:28 <epico> no 07:11:37 <juhp> tagoh: great please 07:11:50 <juhp> I feel that one is critical to get attention and feedback 07:12:03 <tagoh> juhp: yep 07:12:38 <paragan> #info In planning we may have F28 Change proposals for collation changes in glibc, ibus enhancement, fontconfig and default font change 07:13:14 <juhp> then just returning to earlier discussion: 07:13:26 <juhp> do we need any specific test days for any of these changes? 07:14:02 <juhp> maybe also for collation dunno? 07:14:16 <juhp> though dunno "how to test" hmm 07:15:27 <juhp> or we just handle through the i18n test day? 07:15:42 <juhp> tagoh, mfabian: ? 07:17:01 <tagoh> for me, it may be up to how I set the contingency plan? if just testing on apps is sufficient we could cover it under the usual i18n test day testing perhaps. 07:17:05 <mfabian> Thinking about how to test the collation, this is quite subtle ... 07:17:22 <juhp> though we would probably only get CJK testers for the fonts so it might be too limited 07:17:39 <juhp> tagoh: okay right 07:18:09 <juhp> tagoh: yeah probably most important thing is to land the change as early as possible to gain as much testing as possible 07:18:35 <juhp> through the whole cycle 07:18:36 <tagoh> juhp: right. let me think about it during writing changes anyway. 07:18:42 <juhp> sure sure 07:18:45 <juhp> okay 07:18:49 <juhp> mfabian: yeah 07:19:14 <mfabian> I am adding test files to glib, in most cases there were no test files at all. 07:19:47 <juhp> mfabian: any idea when the changes might become available in f28? I know it is still ongoing work 07:19:47 <mfabian> The old collation is probably wrong in many cases, I just sync it with CLDR now. But this will introduce a lot of changes. 07:19:56 <juhp> mfabian: great 07:20:05 <juhp> mfabian: yeah 07:20:11 <mfabian> I hope I can finish it over Christmas to make the deadline for glibc 2.27. 07:20:18 <juhp> awesome 07:20:24 <juhp> that would be great 07:20:39 <mfabian> So we will get it in f28 *if* f28 will get glibc 2.27 (I am not sure about that at the moment ...) 07:21:02 <juhp> mfabian: when is the deadline for 2.27? 07:21:11 <mfabian> Biggest problem I have at the moment is with the cmn_TW stroke count sorting. 07:21:16 <juhp> mfabian: or we can patch i guess 07:21:49 <juhp> but it is desirable to have this kind of change upstream 07:22:11 <mfabian> “The current development version of glibc 2.27, releasing on or around February 1, 2018” 07:22:19 <juhp> or we end up with fedora glibc behaving differently - so maybe patching is not so good 07:22:28 <juhp> I see 07:22:39 <juhp> mfabian: I think it should be possible then 07:22:47 <mfabian> No, I don’t think we want to patch that, just wait for the release. 07:23:03 <juhp> right 07:23:17 <juhp> Maybe there will be a glibc 2.27 Change? 07:26:58 <paragan> unable to find Change for glibc 2.27 07:29:00 <paragan> anything more to discuss here? 07:31:16 <paragan> I assume not 07:31:46 <paragan> Let's move to the next ticket 07:31:50 <paragan> #info #84: Fedora 26 Bug triaging (pnemade) 07:31:50 <paragan> #link https://pagure.io/i18n/issue/84 07:32:15 <paragan> Last week F25 bugs got EOL'ed.
