07:10 <@API> well 10 minutes over time
07:10 <@API> just enough waiting for people, so lets start
07:10 <@API> 1. Status of current Action Items 
07:11 <@API> Mike will remove the --enable-relocate option from AT-SPI2.
07:11 <@API>     Question: Should a bug be filed about doing the same for AT-SPI? 
07:11 <@API> mgorse, ?
07:11 < mgorse> API: Good point; some sort of bug should be filed at least
07:12 < mgorse> since relocate in at-spi is currently off in git, since we wanted that for 1.32.0
07:12 ::: tbsaunde [~tbsaunde@GHC25.GHC.ANDREW.CMU.EDU] joined #a11y-meeting
07:12 < mgorse> I think that making it always relocate would make sense
07:13 <@API> mgorse, and about at-spi2?
07:13 <@API> I mean, was it removed or at least 
07:13 <@API> a bug created (if not used the gtk_path one)?
07:13 < mgorse> well, either that or just not have the option. I guess either way could work really
07:14 < mgorse> So far I've removed the option from AT-SPI2, although I haven't removed the code to support for AT-SPI1 from being relocated
07:14 <@API> ok, so I guess that the update in this point is
07:14 <@API> at-spi2 relocate was removed
07:14 <@API> what to do  on at-spi1 is still pending
07:14 <@API> right?
07:14 < mgorse> yeah
07:15 <@API> ok, thanks
07:15 <@joanie> Are we going to determine it now?
07:15 <@API> well, mike said
07:15 <@API> <mgorse> API: Good point; some sort of bug should be filed at leas
07:16 < mgorse> Come to think of it, people don't seem to be using the option and/or have problems trying to use it, so maybe removing the option altogether makes sense after all
07:16 <@API> so I guess that the action here is create the bug, and then decide
07:16  >>> joanie jots down the action
07:16 <@joanie> mgorse: you'll take care of that?
07:16 < mgorse> yeah
07:16 <@joanie> Thanks!
07:16 <@API> ok, so next action to review
07:16 <@API> Joanie will put LibreOffice on her to-do list. In particular: 
07:17 <@API> well, this is somewhat vague
07:17 <@joanie> http://listarchives.documentfoundation.org/www/discuss/msg05025.html
07:17 <@API> so I guess that yes, libreoffice is in the todo
07:17 <@API> joanie TODO I mean
07:17 <@joanie> So that's my asking what the deal is
07:17 <@joanie> a couple of responses of interest
07:17 <@joanie> http://listarchives.documentfoundation.org/www/discuss/msg05034.html
07:18 <@joanie> Vague, but it sounds like they'll take fixes from OOo
07:18 <@joanie> And Michael Meeks responded once or twice
07:18 <@joanie> and the response I'm looking for I'm not seeing
07:18 <@joanie> one moment
07:18 <@joanie> http://listarchives.documentfoundation.org/www/discuss/msg05040.html
07:19 <@joanie> I had no idea he was the author of 50% of the atk bridge in vcl
07:19 <@joanie> so that's pretty cool
07:19 <@joanie> though he did get in another push for "submit patches" ;-)
07:19 <@joanie> I've since subscribed to the dev list
07:19 <@joanie> I may try to hack a solution for the bug I filed back in november
07:19 <@API> authour of the atk bridge in vcl?
07:20 <@API> vcl?
07:20 <@joanie> not so much because I have spare time
07:20 <@joanie> OOo toolkit
07:20 <@joanie> Clutter is to Cally as OOo/LO is to VCL
07:20 <@joanie> well, VCL ain't a11y
07:20 <@joanie> but ... 
07:20 <@API> ah ok
07:20 <@joanie> Firefox is to Gecko as OOo/LO is to VCL
07:20 <@joanie> that's more accurate
07:20 <@joanie> sorry, 07:00 
07:21 <@API> well, he said that, and it is awesome
07:21 <@joanie> anyhoo, I plan to stick around, raise bugs more publicly
07:21 <@API> but you question is more about
07:21 <@joanie> and stay on Michael's radar
07:21 <@API> "will someone work on that"
07:21 <@joanie> ;-)
07:21 <@API> that 
07:21 <@API> "have someone experience on?"
07:22 <@API> but anyway, I guess that this means that the action item is going well
07:22 <@joanie> I'm thinking I'll respond to him saying "awesome, can someone look at this crasher bug I filed in Nov since I'm crazy-busy"
07:22 <@API> at least on the part of getting information
07:22 <@joanie> lol
07:22 <@joanie> yeah
07:23 <@joanie> I'm still on it action-item wize
07:23 <@API> so next action item:
07:24 <@API> We should add organized testing to the GNOME Accessibility Team's roadmap with the aim of it being like the Fedora Testing Days in terms of the approach. 
07:24 <@API> I guess that in this case his status is
07:24 <@joanie> Oh I forgot about that (in prepping for this meeting)
07:24 <@API> zero 
07:24 <@joanie> But I did it
07:24 <@joanie> wtf
07:24 <@API> awesome
07:24 <@joanie> lemme find the link
07:24 <@joanie> http://live.gnome.org/Accessibility/Roadmap#Implement_.22Testing_Days.22_for_GNOME_Accessibility
07:25 <@joanie> Little faith in me you have API :-P
07:25 <@API> nothing personal, is just little faith in the human being in genera
07:25 <@API> l
07:25 <@joanie> lol
07:26 <@API> in fact as this was suggested by fer
07:26 <@API> I though that implicitly was a "fer task"
07:26 <@joanie> But I was the one who said "let's put it on the roadmap"
07:26 <@joanie> So I assumed it was mine
07:26 <@joanie> anyhoo, it's fricken done
07:26 <@API> well, yes now it is on the roadmap
07:26 <@joanie> that was the AI
07:27 <@joanie> ;-)
07:27 <@API> my question was more like "have someone volunteer to work on it"?
07:27 <@joanie> someone else (like Fer) can take that on
07:27 <@joanie> I don't see it in my future personally
07:27 <@joanie> even after gnome3, I plan to take on Student contributors
07:27 <@joanie> so I anticipate continuing to be swamped
07:28 <@joanie> (hey! Maybe students can get involved with testing!)
07:28 <@joanie> but topic for another time and meeting
07:28 <@API> I agree
07:29 <@API> going fast on the "rolled over" section at the meeting agenda
07:29 <@API> yes, I still have pending send a general mail about the atk hackfest
07:29  >>> joanie laughs and accuses API of being a human being
07:29 <@API> that would be also a reminder to the next point "people who needs funding should start to ping the travel committe"
07:29 <@joanie> I need to do that myself
07:30 <@joanie> and CSUN
07:30 <@API> Joanie will investigate who controls the GNOME a11y paypal donations account and draft a page for the wiki. 
07:30 <@joanie> Yeah
07:30 <@API> and this is "in progress" mode
07:30 <@joanie> so on that....
07:30 <@API> AFAIK
07:30 <@joanie> I had emailed Brian Cameron and Germán with some basic questions and to get the "go ahead".
07:30 <@joanie> I honestly figured I'd be given both the answers and the go-ahead. Instead I was told that Board needs to discuss it.
07:30 <@joanie> <snark>Proving once again that we have little actual authority/control of our own destiny.</snark>
07:31 <@joanie> So I've emailed the board-list and am now waiting to hear back.
07:31 <@joanie> btw
07:31 <@joanie> you skipped one of your AIs
07:31 <@joanie> Funding for Atk Hackfest?
07:32 <@API> ah, well yes
07:32 <@API> you mentioned that because you started to talk about the Board?
07:32 <@API> in this case I think that it doesn't make sense
07:32 <@joanie> huh?
07:33 <@API> after all, the Foundation approved a a11y budget
07:33 <@API> that include a hackfest
07:33 <@API> so I think that we shouldn't ask them more money
07:33 <@joanie> (I mentioned it because you skipped it)
07:33 <@API> ah ok
07:33 <@API> well, yes, but not on purpose
07:33 <@API> sooo
07:33 <@API> Foundation discarded
07:33 <@joanie> I know
07:33 <@joanie> but....
07:33 <@joanie> hold on
07:34 <@joanie> I thought that action item was about OTHER sources
07:34 <@API> I have been talking with a student group here in Coruña
07:34 <@joanie> like that local user group
07:34 <@joanie> exactly
07:34 <@API> they are receptive, although the thing is somewhat stopped
07:34 <@API> I will talk with them again
07:34 <@joanie> cool
07:34 <@joanie> and to be sure (related item)
07:34 <@joanie> The dates are set in stone?
07:34 <@API> as far as I remember that means some hundreds euros
07:35 <@joanie> I can purchase tickets
07:35 <@API> well, yes, we already concluded that
07:35 <@joanie> hundreds of Euros won't hurt
07:35 <@joanie> I'm just triple-checking
07:35 <@API> from now
07:35 <@API> if someone can't go to the hackfest
07:35 <@API> that would be classified
07:35 <@API> as "unexpected"
07:36  >>> joanie nods
07:36 <@API> joanie, you were thinking in other sources of money?
07:36 <@joanie> I don't have any specific sources in mind
07:36 <@joanie> I was merely confused when your answer was to not ask the Foundation
07:36 <@joanie> since I didn't think that was the point of the AI
07:38 <@API> ok
07:38 <@API> so item reviewed
07:38 <@API> forty minutes over time, and we just reviewed past actions
07:38 <@joanie> Q4s
07:39 <@API> it is like live on the past...
07:39 <@joanie> lol
07:39 <@API> argh
07:39 <@API> yeah
07:39 <@API> I also need to do the Q4 thingie ...
07:39 <@joanie> as do I
07:39 <@API> someone knows the deadline?
07:39 <@joanie> we're not the only people late
07:39 <@joanie> hold on
07:39 <@joanie> it was a long time ago officially
07:39 <@joanie> but....
07:39 <@joanie> http://live.gnome.org/action/subscribe/GnomeMarketing/QuarterlyReports/2010/Q4
07:40 <@joanie> My typical behavior is to panic once Brian Cameron submits his Board report
07:40 < mgorse> right. I need to do that, too. Keep forgetting.
07:40 <@joanie> because it's not a Q4 without a Board report
07:40 <@joanie> (even though it's not in the bulleted list)
07:40 <@joanie> So until there's a Board report, the threat level is Orange
07:40 <@joanie> BUT
07:40 <@joanie> I plan to write the Orca Q4 this weekend
07:41 <@joanie> if you all could do the same
07:41 <@joanie> then I will draft our team summary
07:41 <@joanie> and get API's review
07:41 <@API> well, I guess that it is worth
07:41 <@joanie> it would be nice to have this done by Monday or Tuesday
07:41 <@API> to send a mail to the list
07:41 <@joanie> Well, three of the key reports which are missing
07:41 <@joanie> belong to us
07:41 <@joanie> ;-)
07:41 <@joanie> actually, and a fourth
07:42 <@joanie> danigm: Evince a11y report please
07:42 <@joanie> ;-)
07:42 <@joanie> there
07:43 < danigm> joanie: ...
07:43 <@joanie> yessir?
07:43 < danigm> ok, I'll do it
07:43 <@joanie> super thanks!!
07:43 <@API> well, just 15 minutes till the end
07:43 <@API> lets finish the past actions items
07:45 <@API> 3 .Who is testing the GNOME 3.0 stack? 
07:45 <@API> well I added that item
07:45 <@API> and I know that it is really related with the other testing thing
07:45 <@API> but this is not focused to a formal testing
07:45 <@joanie> Well, it is and it's not. We all should be testing
07:45 <@API> and more to
07:45 <@API> are we testing GNOME 3.0?
07:46 <@API> although probably the problem is that right now it is hard to get a "pure" GNOME 3.0 environment
07:46 <@joanie> Yeah
07:47 <@joanie> I'm finding that even with things like introspection
07:47 <@joanie> I seem to have things conflicting
07:47 <@joanie> so the Orca introspection work is largely theoretical
07:47 <@joanie> (i.e. officially it *should* work. I hope it does.)
07:47 <@joanie> :-/
07:48 <@API> that means that you are working on the introspection move for orca?
07:48 <@joanie> oh hell, yeah
07:48 <@joanie> ;-)
07:48 <@joanie> I'm totally separating out the gui
07:48 <@joanie> with wrappers
07:48 <@joanie> we will support both pygtk and pygi
07:48 <@joanie> gtk2 and gtk3
07:48 <@joanie> and I'm even going to at a proof-of-concept Qt4 wrapper
07:49 <@joanie> it's pretty cool
07:49 <@API> awesome
07:49 <@joanie> it's also why I'm behind on my AIs (she says bringing focus back to the topics)
07:49 <@joanie> ;-)
07:49 <@API> I think that this is included on "Other GNOME 3.0 updates "
07:49 <@joanie> oh yay!
07:49 <@joanie> :-)
07:49 <@API> so going on with that ...
07:49 <@joanie> thanks for the slack cutting
07:50 <@API> other gnome 3 updates related with orca?
07:50 <@joanie> Well, we're doing tons of stuff
07:50 <@joanie> but official gnome-3 specific.... I think that introspection work is the key
07:51 <@joanie> WebKitGtk support is coming along nicely too
07:51 <@joanie> I've been testing with Yelp 3.
07:51 <@joanie> we need a few more fixes (which I think just got committed by Mario)
07:51 <@joanie> and I pinged you yesterday about that shell selection stuff
07:52 <@API> yeah ..... slot time, slot time
07:52 <@API> sorry
07:53 <@API> well, mgorse any gnome 3 related update?
07:54 < mgorse> Not really other than having fixed the bugs that some RH people found (ie, the relocate bit and another crasher) since the las tAAT-SPI release
07:54 <@API> ok, thanks
07:55 <@API> danigm, ?
07:56 < danigm> API: what?
07:56 <@API> danigm, any gnome 3 related update from your side?
07:58 < danigm> nope, I found a bug in gailtextbuffer just after gtk3 release and send a patch, but I don't know if it's "gnome 3" related
07:58 <@joanie> danigm: well, what about caret navigation
07:59 <@joanie> i.e. your evince work
07:59 <@joanie> that's gnome 3
07:59 <@joanie> :-)
07:59 < danigm> joanie: waiting for patch revision
07:59 < danigm> patchs are sended
07:59 <@API> ok, thanks
08:00 <@API> well, so to finish the meeting
08:00 <@API> and on miscellaneous time
08:00 <@API> Lets define "Miscellaneous Time" 
08:00 <@API> this is just a little complaint from my side
08:00 <@API> a reminder in fact
08:00 <@API> a reminder to the people
08:00 <@API> as all are invited to add items to the meeting
08:00 <@API> I have the feeling that a lot of people
08:00 <@API> avoid that
08:01 <@joanie> well, after writing the minutes from last week in which miscellaneous time was a 30 minute long discussion, it's a complaint I share.
08:01 <@API> and just start to talk
08:01 <@API> on miscellaneous time
08:01 <@API> hmm
08:01 <@API> joanie, 
08:01 <@API> I had the feeling that in the last meeting
08:01 <@API> was 30 minute longer because the last "official" item on the meeting
08:01  >>> API checking
08:01 <@joanie> well, it was added
08:01 <@joanie> but at the last minute
08:02 <@joanie> as a "if we have time"
08:02 <@joanie> so I guess it's related to the issue, but not the same
08:02 <@joanie> i.e. if your topic is important
08:02 <@API> you are talking about the aria or the testing item=
08:02 <@API> ?
08:02 <@joanie> don't say it's not and downplay it
08:02 <@joanie> yup
08:02 <@API> yup?
08:02 <@API> you are talking about the aria or the testing item?
08:02 <@joanie> yes
08:02 <@joanie> to the aria
08:03 <@joanie> aka the discussion that went on for 30 minutes
08:03 <@API> well, in summary
08:03 <@API> miscellaneous time
08:03 <@API> if just for last and *short* items
08:03 <@API> not included on the agenda
08:04 <@API> if anyone want
08:04 <@API> a real item
08:04 <@API> please edit the agenda during the week
08:04 <@API> well, and now
08:04 <@API> after this comment
08:04 <@API> lets start the real miscellaneous time
08:04  >>> joanie laughs
08:04 <@API> someone want to add something to the meeting?
08:08 <@API> well, 5 minutes are just enough
08:08 <@API> meeting over!
