Stuff we must do between now and code freeze

• Piñeiro was busy this week with GNOME 3.7.91 release, so not a lot of changes here.
• He still needs to take a look with orca to GNOME shell ui changes and to clutter-gtk applications.
• Matthias added the "orca" "bug" to evaluate lib-gd to the blocker email (as an "other" item or something like that).
• Joanie has not yet had time to do that. Ditto for the other things Matthias asked her to look at.

• If someone has been twiddling their thumbs and wants to evaluate widgets, please raise your hand.

GNOME 3.8 Updates

• Matthias sent a mail about the 3.8 bug blockers. One was related with cally and passwords. Piñeiro pinged Emmanuele and the patches have been committed.
• Piñeiro also asked to add the lack of key events on gnome-control-center as a 3.8 blocker.
• Joanie finished the bulk of the profile-based language switching in Orca.

• ACTION: Joanie will give Juanjo some notes about bug 419742 so he can write some release notes.

W3C Update

• The latest public working draft of tha ARIA Authroing Best Practices document is slated for publication today (Mar 7).

• The url is: http://www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria-practices/

• Right now, that url points to the last (older) public working draft from 2010.
• By tomorrow, it should read "7 March 2013".
• ACTION: Joseph to annouce the publication of the ARIA Authoring Pracices Guide when it is published, on the gnome-a11y interest list.

Marketing

• Juanjo has been working on the gnome annual report, so he didn't do anything from his todo list about the release notes and wikipedia stuff. :-/

Ongoing / Rolled-Over

• Joanie:
  • Do a full evaluation of the accessibility breakage in Evolution 3.6 and file bugs accordingly.
• Juanjo:
  • Take a look at the current a11y material in order to make an action plan.
• Piñeiro:
  • Ping GNOME designers, so hopefully some default keybinding will be available for 3.8.
  • Do a review with Orca to ensure that all the labels are in place, and probably a general review would be required.
  • Create some usability-configurability related bugs, using Bryen's mail as a starting point.

  • Update the AtkObject:children-changed documentation, as this could be also used on ATK implementors.
