Topics Discussed

Atk Hackfest

Discussion

  • Joanie presented the latest details:
  • Brian pointed out that an agenda and goals should be added to the page. Joanie responded that this was most definitely the plan, the page having only just been created.
  • Next steps:
    • Email the must-have attendees about the proposed dates

Conclusions

  • Joanie will email the must-have attendees about the proposed dates.
  • Piñeiro and Joanie will fill in the hackfest page with an agenda and goals.

CSUN

Discussion

  • Joanie reported that Eitan was going to email her with information/an update. But this had not occurred.
  • Joanie personally knows:
    • There is a booth, taken care of by Bryen and Eitan. She does not know if more people are needed to staff the booth.
    • The GNOME a11y travel budget is generous, but still finite: a maximum of three people were funded under this budget item.
    • To her knowledge, Bryen doesn't need funding. Eitan may.
    • She will go to sit on a panel Chris Hofstader set up, but will fly out, present, and fly back.
  • Anyone who wants to go to CSUN and needs GNOME funding should email Eitan, with Joanie and Piñeiro CC'ed.

Conclusions

  • Anyone who wants to go to CSUN and needs GNOME funding should email Eitan, with Joanie and Piñeiro CC'ed.

FOSDEM

Discussion

  • Joanie reported that a mailing list with archives, including selected proposals, was available.

  • Louis had indicated to Joanie that he'd be posting the details "somewhere." she requested he do so on our team wiki.
  • Joanie asked if anyone going to FOSDEM required GNOME travel funding. Those present reported that they were not going or that travel was inexpensive for them.
  • Ale reported that the schedule for the dev room is being finalized.

Conclusions

  • If there is anyone going to FOSDEM who requires travel funding from GNOME, they should tell Piñeiro and Joanie ASAP.

Administrivia

Discussion

  • Gail is in two places in bugzilla: Atk/Gail and Gtk+/Gail.
    • Joanie asked if anyone objected to it being removed from Atk/Gail.
    • No one objected. Fer pointed out that we should be sure to transfer bugs over. Joseph added we need to keep the history.
  • Quarterly reports:

Conclusions

  • Joanie will ask Li to remove it, transfering existing bugs over to Gtk+/Gail.
  • Joanie will find out when Q4 reports are due.
  • Team members who have not submitted their Q4 reports should do so on the page Mario started.

Other

  • "Michaelwigle" and "Codo" each announced that they are new to GNOME a11y and hoping to become more involved.
  • Fer asked about Gail TreeView testing. Joanie responded that Li would be taking a look at it.

Unity

Discussion

  • Piñeiro announced that he has been working on Unity accessibility.
  • Links:
  • Current state:
    • Unity had migrated from mutter to compiz, and as a result were losing the a11y from Cally.
    • He is working with others: Luke on the integration with the platform and reviewing user interaction; Rodrigo Moya will also be working on the Atk layer.
  • Impact with respect to gnome-shell accessibility:
    • Piñeiro stated he wasn't sure how this would affect gnome-shell, but his gnome-shell patches are still waiting for review/inclusion so he is not too concerned about any impact to gnome-shell.
    • Joanie responded that if at any point he had support which needed to be included on the Orca-side, the team would get it included promptly.

Conclusions

  • Joanie will create a new page for parallel issues which are not actually GNOME 3.0 from that section on the GNOME 3 page.

Summary of Action Items

  • Joanie will email the must-have attendees about the proposed dates of the Atk hackfest.
  • Piñeiro and Joanie will fill in the Atk hackfest page with an agenda and goals.
  • Anyone who wants to go to CSUN and needs GNOME funding should email Eitan, with Joanie and Piñeiro CC'ed.
  • Anyone going to FOSDEM who requires travel funding from GNOME should tell Piñeiro and Joanie ASAP.
  • Joanie will ask Li to remove the old, duplicate Atk/Gail, transfering existing bugs over to Gtk+/Gail.
  • Joanie will find out when Q4 reports are due.
  • Team members who have not submitted their Q4 reports should do so on the page Mario started.
