15:36 <FJKong> 1 duplicate icon show in status bar after login out and in.
15:36 <FJKong> 2 adjust candidate words and support deleting words which user don't want to keep.
15:36 <FJKong> 3 feature request: add dict defined by user.
15:36 <FJKong> eof
15:36 <willcooke> thanks FJKong, good stuff
15:37 <willcooke> FJKong, OEM customers are interested in getting Pinyin search in the dash too.  So that might get bumped up the priority list in a few weeks time. I'll keep you posted
15:37 <willcooke> nothing to worry about for now
15:37 <willcooke> #topic happyaron
15:37 <willcooke> 1. Work on fontconfig configuration for fonts-noto-cjk
15:37 <willcooke> 2. Start to clear my SRU backlog.
15:37 <willcooke> #topic hikiko
15:37 <hikiko> hey
15:38 <hikiko> I am re-writing the part of the shadow code that creates a texture from the shape of the window applies it to a quad and shows it on the screen because I realized that debugging the window/quads ordering/clipping in compiz and unity (that has a few bugs and makes my shadows appear on top of the window in some cases or in wrong size/position in some others) might take ages and it's faster to create one quad in the existing decoration window
15:38 <hikiko> and use one pixmap texture (unity specific textures) with the shape on it.
15:38 <hikiko> This will solve the issue because
15:39 <hikiko> even if unity windows are given to compiz in wrong order
15:39 <hikiko> compiz has a mechanism to draw them correctly
15:39 <hikiko> also this change
15:39 <hikiko> only affects how shadows are displayed,  I still use the same algorithm (that is tested) to calculate them, so I hope it works soon.
15:39 <hikiko> eof
15:40 <willcooke> thanks hikiko
15:41 <willcooke> good work!
15:41 <willcooke> #topic Laney
15:41 <Laney> • Expose appstream files over rsync, per a request from LP
15:41 <Laney> ∘ also write a script to fetch this from the server and extract it into place manually, since the automatic stuff won't work until we get it into the mirrors
15:41 <Laney> • New glib to D + U
15:41 <Laney> ∘ We had a mismatched pcre between build + runtime, since it got stuck in xenial-proposed. This broke some of the new tests - propose a test upstream to fix that.
15:41 <Laney> ∘ poke at autopkgtests (pcre made intltool-update spit warnings, fix that in Debian + Ubuntu)
15:41 <Laney> • fonts-tlwg upgrade fix which tons of people had noticed but nobody actually uploaded a fix for... also NMU that to Debian
15:41 <Laney> • Final set of webkit2 porting for things in main. Try to ping Trevinho about a scrollbar bug which he looked at before, but not much luck there
15:41 <Laney> • patch pilot (should be able to empty the ubuntu-desktop queue)
15:41 <Laney> • DMB
15:42 <Laney> • look at desktop isos not building, it's because of checkbox
15:42 <Laney> • poke the last few things for libqca2 that was holding a load of stuff in proposed (gst parts), that cleared out
15:42 <Laney> ⋙
15:42 <willcooke> awesome!  thanks Laney
15:42 <willcooke> well done on the desktop queue too
15:42 <willcooke> #topic larsu
