16:08:29 <clown> For the record, the agena is here:  https://wiki.gnome.org/Accessibility/Meetings#Agenda_for_the_Next_Meeting_.284_July.29
16:08:38 <clown> #topic GSoC updates
16:08:48 <clown> I'll go first, okay magpie?
16:08:51 <magpie> ok
16:09:25 <clown> #info Joseph had an action to post the five issues regarding the focus/caret tracker to the accessibility development list.
16:09:31 <clown> #info He did so, his post is here:
16:09:58 <clown> #info Actually, the discussion thread is here:  https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gnome-accessibility-devel/2013-July/thread.html
16:10:23 <clown> #info Joseph is rapdily converging on these conclusions:
16:10:33 <magpie> #link https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gnome-accessibility-devel/2013-July/thread.html
16:11:03 <clown> #info 1. the tracker should not be a singleton, unless it's too costly to have multiple D-Bus registrations.
16:11:23 <clown> #info 2. It's still a question of where Atspi.init() should be called.
16:11:53 <clown> #info 3.  Atspi event registration should happen in the constructor in the non-singleton case (see 1).
16:12:11 <clown> #info 4. The try/catch statements can be safely removed.
16:12:56 <clown> #info 5.  There is no use case for distinguishing between 'object:state-changed:focus' and 'object:state-changed:select'.
16:13:28 <clown> #info Joseph has tried to keep up with Magdalen's work, but has found little time to do it this week.
16:13:40 <clown> #info But, he has at least responded to her emails.
16:13:54 <clown> done, if you have anything to add, magpie,  go ahead.
16:14:35 <magpie> #info Magdalen has updated the tracker
16:15:02 <magpie> #info Magdalen is working on the magnifier
16:15:46 <magpie> #info Magdalen has been updating Joseph via email about changes and asking questions about it  that way too
16:16:40 <magpie> #info Magdalen missed an email about the meeting for OPW but should go to the next one (no date yet)
16:17:10 <magpie> #info Magdalen will be doing a lightening talk on the project for GUADEC
16:17:35 <magpie> #info Magdalen needs to hand in the slides by 29th July
16:18:09 * clown looks at calendar
16:18:17 <magpie> #action Magdalen is going to start working on the lightening talk

16:24:38 * clown sorry.
16:24:44 <magpie> that would be awesome
16:24:54 <clown> that would truly be overkill.

16:27:14 <clown> #topic W3C updates.
16:28:17 <magpie> I can't comment here.
16:28:28 <clown> #info No news.  The goal to publish a last call draft of the ARIA User Agent Implemenation Guide by Jul 29 is still on the table.
16:29:05 <clown> #info Testing is somewhat of a hindrance, in that it feeds back into better woring of the Guide, and testing is not complete.
16:29:15 <clown> #info  We'll see if the deadline can be met.
16:29:26 <clown> Done.  Questions?
16:29:49 <clown> actually, that not right.  Hang on,
16:30:22 <clown> #info  The deadline is to have all the edits to the guide committed by Jul 29 so that a last call draft can be published in August.
16:30:32 <clown> now done.
16:32:19 <clown> so, moving on?
16:32:29 <magpie> sure
16:32:44 <clown> #topic Marketing

16:34:22 <clown> jjmarin, are you here?
16:34:30 <jjmarin> yes
16:34:48 * clown waits for jjmarin's report.
16:35:05 <jjmarin> #info no news from this part. Just I've received a reply from Adam Williamson from Fedora about the a11y BoF in GUADEC. He likes the idea, but nothing concrete by now
16:35:13 <jjmarin> done !
16:35:54 <clown> jjmarin, my guess is that's info you should pass to joanie and API (if you haven't already).
16:36:07 * joanie reads
16:36:19 <joanie> btw, I'm on that mailing list
16:36:32 <joanie> thanks for making that connection jjmarin
16:36:42 <joanie> and, of course, the BoF schedule is STILL not done
16:36:46 * joanie shrugs
16:36:49 <jjmarin> https://www.redhat.com/archives/anaconda-devel-list/2013-July/msg00013.html
16:37:01 <clown> #link https://www.redhat.com/archives/anaconda-devel-list/2013-July/msg00013.html
16:37:16 * clown thanks magpie for alerting him to the 'link' command.
16:37:28 <joanie> btw, the meetbot includes links whether you use the command or not
16:37:37 <joanie> I then delete the duplicates
16:37:38 <clown> d'oh!
16:37:53 <magpie> no problem :-)
16:37:53 <clown> so, I just created more work for you?
16:37:58 * clown pats himself on the back.
16:38:06 <joanie> meetbot's fault. Either don't have the command or don't autoinclude them
16:38:16 <joanie> clown: it's a one-second change
16:38:17 <magpie> oh right
16:38:48 <clown> okay, anything else on Marketing?
16:39:12 <jjmarin> nop, I'm also uber busy at work :-/

16:39:53 <magpie> nope
16:40:11 <jjmarin> clown is API today :-)
16:40:18 <magpie> :)
16:40:24 <clown> yah.

16:40:46 <magpie> the power!
16:40:49 <jjmarin> yes
16:41:13 <clown> so, anything miscellaneous, jhernandez?
16:42:38 * clown wonders if that question made jhernandez spiral into an infinite loop.
16:42:52 <magpie> haha
16:43:08 <clown> well, perhaps he is away from his desk right now.
16:43:10 <jjmarin> miscellaneous madness !
16:43:12 <clown> In the spriit of miscellaneous, nice device, msanchez!
16:43:30 <magpie> device?

16:43:40 <jjmarin> msanchez
16:43:44 <clown> magpie, that's an inside private joke.
16:43:58 <magpie> oh ok then
16:44:03 <clown> msanchez knows what I'm talking about.
16:44:14 * clown I think....
