[Proposal] Dropping YYYY-MM-DD from Test Day Page Title
by Sumantro Mukherjee
Hey Folks!
In the recent past, I have experienced multiple such scenarios where
the creation of the test day pages well in advance could have saved us
some time and helped a long way with planning. The test day planning
is already done with a short fuse; meaning from the day the maintainer
wants a test day to be hosted to the actual day is sometimes less than
7 days.
Creating multiple pages and then redirecting them is a possible
workaround but is messy and resource-consuming. Fedora Test Day Web
App already sorts the events by date and it's easy to read through.
Executing this proposal at the earliest will help spin out test day
skeleton pages and tagged to the issue tracker well in advance. As
Fedora Linux keeps growing and test days keep increasing, this move
will help us to roll out wiki pages in advance at least a couple of
releases prior; keeping in sync with which changeset lands in which
release.
This in the long run (when badges are functional) will have test day
owners, tag appropriate release test day badges right in the ticket
itself. This will help our contributors to explore more about the test
days they care about and the recognition token attached to them.
I would like to know your thoughts about this move and thanks a lot of
contributing to Fedora QA team!

Xfce ~ Lost all menu icons in Rawhide and Beta Branch
by Ian Laurie
In Rawhide (fc39) and the beta branch (fc38), with all updates applied,
I'm seeing all menu icons are gone in Xfce... both the system menu and
right-click context menus.
Seems the Settings Tab in Settings->Appearance now has all options
turned off, including "Show images in menus". Updates did this.
Ticking this option brings sanity back. Was this really intentional or
is it a bug? I think this deviation from traditional defaults is going
to cause beginners a lot of grief.
The Xfce updates in the total update payload were as follows:
xfce4-about-4.18.2-1.fc38.x86_64
xfce4-notifyd-0.8.0-1.fc38.x86_64
xfce4-panel-4.18.2-1.fc38.x86_64
xfce4-power-manager-4.18.1-1.fc38.x86_64
xfce4-session-4.18.1-1.fc38.x86_64
xfce4-settings-4.18.2-1.fc38.x86_64
I'm guessing it was xfce4-settings that did it? If this was intentional
I think it was a really bad idea.
