Fw: Default font configuration doesn't look right on Fedora...
by matt palsson
Woops, wrong thread. Below message was intended for the cloud e-mail I think?
Sorry for spamming everyone this afternoon. I've been a bit out of touch.

Just chiming in again. I wasn't able to participate in the naming of Fedora 20 but I LOVE it.
Best name yet :) P.S. Can't wait to fire up a brand new Fedora 20 stick--- it might be a few
weeks though. Until then I am living vicariously through your conversations....

The standard on what you or I want is irrelevant. Windows, Mac and the mobile platforms iOS/Android define the baseline for font-rendering and this is the standard for which web-designers work hard to craft their pages. Relative to those systems Fedora's out-of-the-box configuration is incorrect and out of place.
I myself am perfectly fine with the way fonts appear out of the box on

As long as I have a great terminal color-scheme I'm happy but I also think that great looking web-pages are also important too.

Deliverables and release engineering changes for Fedora.Next
by Jaroslav Reznik
Hi!
As it seems, Fedora.Next and product planning leads also to changes
how Fedora is produced and how it's going to be distributed to our
users.
For this, we need to collect product deliverables, so needed changes
for release engineering can be planned (and implemented) and as I was
talking to Dennis, we're are currently blocked on it.
I created rel-eng ticket - WGs, please, try to sum up required changes
there (in consumable way), so we have it in one place (for possible
overlaps in requirements etc).
https://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng/ticket/5891
Currently, Alpha Change Deadline is planned for no earlier than
2014-07-22, it's not as far as it sounds, especially if changes
in releng are needed. So let's try to work this out as soon as
possible.
I suppose, in the end, FESCo should approve requested changes in
product deliverables. So once requirements are collected, I'll
create (yet another) ticket for FESCo. Or even better - as Cloud
did - Change proposal would be the best solution, even after the
submission deadline.
(Sorry for cross-posting;-).
Thanks
Jaroslav

Hey all,
Been a while since we met regularly (or irregularly at regular
intervals) and we should probably start doing that again. Who's
available to meet this week at the usual time on Thursday?
We have several items in the tracker to discuss:

Note: Matt will be on PTO, but I hope he can share his thoughts on the
standing agenda prior to that.
Best,

It's my wife's birthday, and we're going to go off to Vermont somewhere
where there's no computers or Internet access. If there are any crises this
week, let's get them all in by Wednesday afternoon. :)

N.B. We may consider Fedora Atomic Initiative for this image, depending on
degree of effort on that project across the rest of Fedora.
