15:38 <didrocks> hey
15:38 <didrocks> Ubuntu Make:
15:38 <didrocks> - Released 15.09 which contains notably the Unity 3D support. Wrote blog post + social media
15:38 <didrocks> - More reviews and merged android sdk support + exit code cleanups from 2 contributors (one being new \o/)
15:38 <didrocks> - Fix some pep8 issues on trusty only for CI tests and other small tests broken by above.
15:38 <didrocks> - Bug management
15:38 <didrocks> Developer experience:
15:38 <didrocks> - Add transitions and episod on it for test app
15:38 <didrocks> - various warnings and code cleanups on test app + opened last bugs
15:38 <didrocks> - installed snappy on my machine and a raspberry pi 2 to evaluate Go developer experience (+ running first examples)
15:38 <didrocks> Misc:
15:38 <didrocks> - reviewed unity3d upstream deb about "bad packaging" complains: the issue is mostly warnings about /opt "bad quality" for sotfware center due to this path. Nothing we can fix as this is the best practice for such out of repo components.

15:45 <willcooke> * More work on Orca's gsettings backend which when implemented, will help the accessibility profile implementation.
15:45 <willcooke> * Discovered that Unity in Wily has a regression with accessibility with the launcher and quicklists. Quicklists are not speaking with Orca, and once opened, the launcher itself goes silent. I started debugging, will report when I have more.
