1) Meeting time and cadence
Aiming for monthly meetings, first Monday of the month, 15:00 utc
Next date: January 7, 2019
1) GTK Hackfest.
Tentative dates: Mon - Wed after FOSDEM
Location: Brussels
We'll look at getting the same venue as this year
Emmanuele volunteered for that, Matthias has contact info
Will set up a wiki page to organize
2) Listfest
Benjamin is trying to get this organized with various listbox consumers
https://wiki.gnome.org/Hackfests/ListFest2018
3) 3.26 release ?
Some concern about the scale of theme refresh going into 3.24
And some special-purpose new api needed for a statusicon regression fix
Clash between expectations of minor gnome release vs micro gtk release
Options:
tone down theme changes
keep the api private
Inconclusive discussion, will revisit at hackfest
4) GTK4 tasks
Not a lot of progress recently
Matthias has been off doing other things
Benjamin has a deep stack of unfinished changes that he is struggling to unwind
Timm has an unreviewed transformation branch. Ebassi volunteered to review
Big gtk4 blockers:
popovers
dnd
Beyond that, need to identify end user and app developer features, write demos and advertise
We have a media demo (puzzle)
A blur demo (in tests)
A 2.5 million files list box demo (in a branch)
5) Misc
Some discussion around improving docs, tutorials, examples
