 12:01 <meetingology> 

 12:01 <meetingology> Available commands: action commands idea info link nick

 12:02 <JoeyChan> Roman found a serious problem

 12:02 <JoeyChan> https://developers.google.com/feed/terms

 12:02 <JoeyChan> Deprecation Policy

 12:02 <popey> let me see

 12:03 <popey> I dont understand the issue?

 12:03 <popey> they're not deprecating it?

 12:04 <JoeyChan> Google gonna shut the feed api,  or not ?

 12:05 <popey> thats not how i read it

 12:05 <popey> how i read it is "we will announce if we shut it down"

 12:05 <popey> not "we are going to shut it down"

 12:06 <JoeyChan> OK ..  seems both Roman & I hava a bad English reading ability   :P

 12:07 <popey> hehe

 12:07 <JoeyChan> we almost spent a week to search a replacement of google api

 12:07 <popey> well, it's not _that_ clear!

 12:09 <JoeyChan> OK  :P   we can continue working on Shorts

 12:09 <JoeyChan> wasted lots of time

 12:09 <popey> let me get another en_GB person to read it, to confirm

 12:09 <popey> maybe I'm being dumb

 12:10 <JoeyChan> I think a lawyer, is better to read it

 12:10 <popey> ☻

 12:10 <JoeyChan> :P

 12:12 <popey> I uploaded a newer shorts to the store recently.

 12:12 <JoeyChan> I installed r119

 12:13 <popey> Ok, had someone else check out that google announcement, they're not shutting down.

 12:13 <JoeyChan> now shorts flicks more smooth than before  :)

 12:13 <JoeyChan> sounds cool

 12:14 <popey> well, at least not until next year

 12:14 <JoeyChan> lol

 12:15 <popey> ☻

 12:15 <JoeyChan> Ok  moving to next question

 12:16 <JoeyChan> I think c++ code is inevitable

 12:16 <JoeyChan> sooner or later

 12:16 <popey> ok.

 12:16 <popey> So timescales...

 12:16 <JoeyChan> I tried QWidget in my nexus recently

 12:17 <popey> Do you think it will make a significant difference to performance?

 12:17 <JoeyChan> it will block all touch events

 12:17 <popey> Which parts would you move to C++?

 12:17 <JoeyChan> I just tried C++ in my own app

 12:17 <JoeyChan> not Shorts

 12:18 <JoeyChan> the QtWidget module has a good class called "QSplashScreen"

 12:18 <JoeyChan> it shows a loading screen when loading the whole app

 12:19 <popey> ah okay

 12:19 <JoeyChan> someone in G+ said maybe Mir not support QtWidget very well

 12:21 <popey> Oh, I'd not seen that, do you have a link?

 12:21 <JoeyChan> QtWidget still have some good features that qml doesn't have

 12:21 <JoeyChan> I posted to the group "ubuntu app developer"

 12:23 <popey> ok, i'll take a look

 12:23 <JoeyChan> in "discussion" section

 12:24 <JoeyChan> I suspect QSplashScreen might not work well with Mir, as they are positioned shaped windows, while Mir is all about full screen apps on the phone.

 12:24 <JoeyChan> from Rodney

 12:24 <JoeyChan> Rodney Dawes

 12:25 <popey> ah, interesting

 12:26 <popey> In terms of timelines, end of august is the date we're handing images over to the handset manufacturer

 12:26 <popey> between now and then we can of course fix bugs

 12:26 <popey> (not that shorts has many)

 12:26 <popey> and we may get more bugs filed after tat date

 12:26 <popey> *that date

 12:26 <popey> as the manufacturer tests the apps.

 12:27 <JoeyChan> i c

 12:28 <popey> Any thing else to discuss?

 12:28 <JoeyChan> so the opml support not gonna landed for RTM version ?

 12:29 <popey> I think we should aim for after RTM

 12:29 <popey> But if you think we can get it in before, we have over a month ☻

 12:30 <JoeyChan> to get it done is easy,  but I can't guarantee stable  :P

 12:30 <popey> so we can test separately and then land it once fully tested and stable

 12:31 <JoeyChan> sure

 12:31 <JoeyChan> no more questions         so far so good   :)

 12:32 <popey> Super!

 12:32 <popey> Thanks JoeyChan, let me know if you need any opml testing ☻

 12:32 <JoeyChan> popey:   will !

 12:32 <JoeyChan> enjoy the weekend and the aircraft show  :P

 12:32 <popey> hehe, will do!

 12:32 <popey> have a great weekend

 12:33 <popey> #endmeeting
