https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=734808 has a few patches
from Allan and myself which help addressing window size issues for
gnome-initial-setup. It was coming up taller than 768 pixels. The main
size reduction patches have already gone into the release I made
yesterday for .92. Whats left there now is some cosmetic cleanup
patches to adjust padding and alignment on some of the pages.  These
can be safely deferred until .1, but the patches are pretty safe.

Id like to have an screenshot, but I trust you and Allan that the
final result looks good
Only for curiosity; What is the final size in pixels?

I can't give the precise number but given comment 12 it will probably
be around 760px, Bastien asked for 600px (that was a common height of
netbooks) but that's not considered doable without much larger
changes.

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=736764 has patches by Rui
to remove filtering of IBus input sources. This follows a similar
patch that we've applied in .91 to remove filtering of keyboard
layouts - the idea here is that if the user asks to see more input
sources by clicking on the more button, it is better to show all we
have than to possibly filter out the one input source he was looking
for. This patch removes an annoyance that has been reported in the
Fedora 21 GNOME test day - not super-important, but nice to have.

Patches are small and its a good improvement to complete the work
started in #729208.
1/2 for release team

I would be the maintainer I would nitpick as there are places where
indendation is made using spaces while the rest of the file is using
tabs.

But 2/2 nevertheless.


https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=736763 has patches also by
Rui to fix a bug wrt to locale changes - we were not actually showing
the right input sources for the locale that the user just selected.
This is a case where our well-intentioned attempt to show the relevant
input sources has backfired to create confusion that actively prevents
users from finding their input source. We should take this one.

Small patch and makes sense
1/2 for release team

2/2.


Of course it would be nice if a .92 tarball could be created soon
enough to be included in the release.
