05:03:03 &lt;dingyichen&gt; Hi juhp.
05:03:08 &lt;phuang&gt; hi
05:04:01 &lt;pravins&gt; hi
05:04:12 &lt;paragn&gt; hi
05:05:38 &lt;juhp&gt; ok
 
05:06:13 &lt;juhp&gt; #topic https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/I18N/Meetings/2009-07-07
05:07:00 &lt;jni_&gt; hi
05:07:01 &lt;juhp&gt; not too much agenda today
05:07:11 &lt;juhp&gt; hi jni_ and asgeirf
 
05:07:29 &lt;jni_&gt; hi juhp
05:07:52 &lt;asgeirf&gt; hi :)
05:08:24 &lt;Kaio_Sashimi&gt; hi
05:08:36 &lt;juhp&gt; cool
05:09:52 &lt;juhp&gt; #topic https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/YumLangpackPlugin
 
05:10:05 &lt;juhp&gt; well not too much to update on the yum plugin
05:10:32 &lt;juhp&gt; unfortunately been rather busy with other stuff but finally submitted it to feature-wrangler now...
05:11:03 &lt;juhp&gt; and hope to find some time this week to create the meta packages and hack a little on the python plugin
05:11:35 &lt;juhp&gt; then that moves along will submit the package and plugin for review...
05:12:05 &lt;juhp&gt; for the record there has been some discussion on it last week on anaconda-devel list
 
05:12:25 &lt;juhp&gt; let me see if I can pull out an url first :)
05:12:30 &lt;dingyichen&gt; juhp: what's the relationship between the yum-plugin-langpack and &lt;language&gt;-support?
05:13:07 &lt;juhp&gt; https://www.redhat.com/archives/anaconda-devel-list/2009-July/msg00003.html
 
05:13:59 &lt;juhp&gt; dingyichen: the yum groups you mean?
05:14:10 &lt;dingyichen&gt; juhp: yes
05:14:21 &lt;juhp&gt; dingyichen: well for a start that is where the metapackages would/will live
 
05:14:41 &lt;juhp&gt; but the plugin may not use yum groups
05:14:53 &lt;juhp&gt; though that is also an alternative for now
05:15:18 &lt;juhp&gt; dingyichen: if you want to make the question more specific? :)
05:15:53 &lt;juhp&gt; dingyichen: I haven't played with the python code in a while so need to revisit that soon
 
05:17:34 &lt;juhp&gt; ok let's move on then
05:17:42 &lt;juhp&gt; #topic IPA fonts
05:17:44 &lt;dingyichen&gt; juhp: whether is the language preference being  installed?
 
05:17:47 &lt;dingyichen&gt; Sure.
05:18:01 &lt;juhp&gt; dingyichen: language preference?
05:18:29 &lt;dingyichen&gt; On the time when user install the language support?
05:18:39 &lt;juhp&gt; dingyichen: so to clarify maybe - if you install lang X you will get langpack-support-X installed
 
05:18:56 &lt;juhp&gt; as in as at install time
05:19:15 &lt;juhp&gt; does it answer?
05:19:46 &lt;juhp&gt; I already talked a bit to tagoh3 about the ipa fonts change in f12
05:20:08 &lt;juhp&gt; and I think the fonts are nice...
05:20:48 &lt;juhp&gt; the only issue that comes up is still the interesting difference between gothic and pgothic (and similarly for mincho probably)
 
05:21:00 &lt;tagoh3&gt; juhp: sure - though we didn't have any conclusions about the font size issue?
05:21:05 &lt;juhp&gt; right
05:21:08 &lt;juhp&gt; that too
05:22:01 &lt;juhp&gt; so currently (in Live etc) pgothic is default I think
 
05:22:06 &lt;juhp&gt; tagoh3: any more thoughts on that?
05:23:13 &lt;tagoh3&gt; juhp: well, for UI font, proportional should looks better than fixed size generally.
05:23:41 &lt;juhp&gt; right
05:24:09 &lt;tagoh3&gt; so need to scale up a bit to keep similar look?
 
05:24:35 &lt;juhp&gt; maybe yeah - so scale up both fonts?
05:24:43 &lt;juhp&gt; or all even
05:24:50 &lt;tagoh3&gt; if necessary
05:25:10 &lt;juhp&gt; not sure though how it will affect the spacing around the glyphs?
05:25:11 &lt;tagoh3&gt; need more testing I suppose
 
05:25:15 &lt;juhp&gt; ok
05:25:18 &lt;tagoh3&gt; right
05:26:25 &lt;juhp&gt; ok - just thought I would bring it up here too for the attention of more people
05:27:04 &lt;juhp&gt; #topic bugs corner
 
05:27:14 &lt;juhp&gt; ok not actually on the agenda...
05:27:32 &lt;juhp&gt; I noticed today there are quite a lot of bugs in NEW
05:27:49 &lt;juhp&gt; https://bugzilla.redhat.com/buglist.cgi?product=Fedora&amp;bug_status=NEW&amp;emailassigned_to1=1&amp;emailtype1=exact&amp;email1=&amp;emailassigned_to2=1&amp;emailreporter2=1&amp;emailqa_contact2=1&amp;emailcc2=1&amp;emailtype2=exact&amp;email2=fedora-i18n-bugs%40redhat.com
 
05:28:02 &lt;juhp&gt; might be better if we had UNVERIFIED or something but anyway
05:28:26 &lt;juhp&gt; 89 currently after I moved the red ones to assigned ;)
05:29:16 &lt;juhp&gt; a lot of them aren't our bugs of course but good to move our own bugs to assigned after accepting them
05:31:52 &lt;juhp&gt; ok hm I seen to have a lot of ibus-anthy bugs on that list ;)
 
05:32:09 &lt;tagoh3&gt; :)
05:32:16 &lt;juhp&gt; anyone have any bugs they want to discuss? :)
05:32:21 &lt;juhp&gt; tagoh3: thanks
05:32:44 &lt;dingyichen&gt; Hmm, so in that case, yum-plugin-language should be either installed with group-language support, or before that. Otherwise nothing being recorded.
 
05:33:03 &lt;dingyichen&gt; About lang-pack. :-)
05:33:37 &lt;juhp&gt; dingyichen: well the metapackages will require the plugin
05:34:09 &lt;juhp&gt; maybe better to explain by example
05:34:29 &lt;dingyichen&gt; juhp: Thanks, another 2 quick questions:
 
05:34:46 &lt;dingyichen&gt; 1. Need rpms be changed?
05:34:46 &lt;juhp&gt; User does a chinese install of fedora: will get langpack-support-zh/chinese installed
05:35:08 &lt;juhp&gt; dingyichen: now at this stage - or no such plans currently
05:36:14 &lt;juhp&gt; wondering about the naming if it is better to use locale like naming

http://www.scrye.com/~kevin/fedora/fedora-meeting/2009/fedora-meeting.2009-07-07-05.01.log.html
05:36:24 &lt;dingyichen&gt; 2. Any naming guideline?
05:36:39 &lt;tagoh3&gt; juhp: what about %_install_langs as brought up on the list?
05:37:17 &lt;juhp&gt; dingyichen: I mentioned it in the feature briefly - I don't think we may enforce it for f12 - perhaps &lt;package&gt;-langpack-&lt;lang&gt;
 
05:37:31 &lt;juhp&gt; tagoh3: what about it? :)
05:38:00 &lt;juhp&gt; I think it is a bad idea
05:38:11 &lt;tagoh3&gt; aha
05:38:34 &lt;juhp&gt; but yeah in the longer term tighter rpm integration would be better
 
05:38:35 &lt;tagoh3&gt; not sure what exactly it's supposed to do
05:39:05 &lt;juhp&gt; tagoh3: well it allows one to restriction the installed translation langs
05:39:10 &lt;juhp&gt; %lang
05:39:21 &lt;tagoh3&gt; but if preparing any facilities to package the lang specific things to the separate package automatically, it would be nice
 
05:39:28 &lt;juhp&gt; so would make sense for firefox ;o)
05:39:57 &lt;juhp&gt; I am wishing that firefox might agree to langpacks if this feature works well
05:40:08 &lt;juhp&gt; fedora firefox I think
05:40:17 &lt;tagoh3&gt; depending on the maintainer to get it working properly would messes up the feature
05:40:40 &lt;juhp&gt; %lang?
 
05:40:59 &lt;tagoh3&gt; or need to pay attentions and more works to be done.
05:41:17 &lt;tagoh3&gt; juhp: or whatever
05:41:22 &lt;juhp&gt; tagoh3: right in the long run having rpm able to auto-subpackage langs would be good
05:42:04 &lt;juhp&gt; there was some talk about this in debian quite a while back - but I haven't followed their progress
 
05:42:07 &lt;juhp&gt; anyone know?
05:42:24 &lt;juhp&gt; I think they were calling them .tdeb's iirc
05:42:45 &lt;juhp&gt; anyway it is non-trivial out of f12 scope I would say
05:43:23 &lt;juhp&gt; http://people.debian.org/~codehelp/tdeb/
 
05:45:01 &lt;juhp&gt; anything else?
05:45:17 &lt;juhp&gt; #topic open
05:46:48 &lt;juhp&gt; otherwise we'll close the meeting shortly :)
05:47:53 &lt;juhp&gt; thanks for the meeting everyone!

05:10:05 <juhp> well not too much to update on the yum plugin
05:10:32 <juhp> unfortunately been rather busy with other stuff but finally submitted it to feature-wrangler now...
05:11:03 <juhp> and hope to find some time this week to create the meta packages and hack a little on the python plugin

05:12:05 <juhp> for the record there has been some discussion on it last week on anaconda-devel list

05:12:25 <juhp> let me see if I can pull out an url first :)
05:12:30 <dingyichen> juhp: what's the relationship between the yum-plugin-langpack and <language>-support?
05:13:07 <juhp> https://www.redhat.com/archives/anaconda-devel-list/2009-July/msg00003.html

05:13:59 <juhp> dingyichen: the yum groups you mean?

05:27:04 <juhp> #topic bugs corner

05:27:14 <juhp> ok not actually on the agenda...
05:27:32 <juhp> I noticed today there are quite a lot of bugs in NEW
05:27:49 <juhp> https://bugzilla.redhat.com/buglist.cgi?product=Fedora&bug_status=NEW&emailassigned_to1=1&emailtype1=exact&email1=&emailassigned_to2=1&emailreporter2=1&emailqa_contact2=1&emailcc2=1&emailtype2=exact&email2=fedora-i18n-bugs%40redhat.com
