What I did last week: - participated in the 1:1 GNOME Advisory Board meeting for Novell - released a few tarballs for GNOME 2.31.4 - pushed a few more fixes for openSUSE 11.3, and tried to work on a few others; replied to GNOME-related issues on mailing lists and made sure I was aware of the latest bugs reported against GNOME for 11.3. - published (but haven't announce yet) the GNOME Foundation policy on copyright assignments. Work on this was mostly done by Bradley Kuhn and Michael Meeks: http://live.gnome.org/CopyrightAssignment - helped Andreas put more content in the 11.3 product highlights for GNOME: http://wiki.opensuse.org/Product_highlights_11.3#GNOME_Desktop - had to deal with various last-minute organization issues for GUADEC (from the Novell side, not from the GNOME side). That lead me to annoy Robert to get an ad for the openSUSE conference. - created the gsettings-desktop-schemas module upstream: this is something that was needed for some time to help with the migration from GConf to GSettings; it contains settings shared by various applications (or desktop-wide settings, if you prefer): http://git.gnome.org/browse/gsettings-desktop-schemas/ - committed some changes upstream to help with GNOME 3: + made gnome-session build against gtk+ 3 + create a gtk+ 3 version of libgweather that should be parallel-installable with the old one + made patches to kill the old GnomeDesktopItem API from gnome-desktop + various smaller fixes - started looking at the screencasting options to do a GNOME 3 screencast, but wasn't very happy with the things I quickly played with so far; will continue this. - chatted a bit about the maintenance team, and subscribed to the maintenance mailing list. - did various administrative work. What has been blocking/annoying me: - I was not able to successfully build the new gnome-keyring-sharp, and apparently nobody knows what's the right way to fix this: http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-packaging/2010-07/msg00002.html This means we're shipping with a known crasher: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=618561 and more generally, no mono app can use the keyring. - didn't have time to follow the discussions on opensuse-project (at least the strategy one) What I'll be doing this week: - catch up with strategy discussion - I'm going to RMLL from Wednesday to Saturday. That's the biggest community event in France: http://2010.rmll.info/ I'll be delivering a talk about contributing to openSUSE and another one about GNOME 3. I'll also help on a booth shared with various distributions (michl sent me some goodies) - will probably prepare my talks (based on the talks I co-delivered at LinuxTag) - more screencast investigation fun Vincent -- Les gens heureux ne sont pas pressés. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-boosters+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-boosters+help@opensuse.org
