jbichaI tried caribou on Fedora 1513:19
AlanBelljbicha: how was it?13:20
jbichait uses a popup keyboard next to the textfield which kinda works except that sometimes it's covering important parts of the app13:21
jbichaso it doesn't work if you use Gnome Terminal fullscreen as it'd be in the way13:21
jbichabut if you "window" the terminal, it can work13:21
jbichaand it doesn't work in some apps like Firefox13:22
jbichathe included keyboard doesn't have any F- keys or the Shift key, but I suppose if you're using a mouse13:23
jbichayou could just browse to a menu and wouldn't be doing keyboard shortcuts like that13:23
jbichait didn't appear to be integrated into Fedora's gdm login screen but maybe I wasn't doing it right13:24
jbicha*and the popup keyboard isn't movable, it just pops up where it wants to which I didn't like13:25
jbichacaribou's pretty new, only 0.2 so maybe these things will be worked out13:25
AlanBellyup13:25
AlanBellif I can get it installed I would like to try and see if it has archtectural benefits over onboard13:26
AlanBellnot seeing it at the moment tbh13:26
jbichaI wasn't able to get it built from jhbuild nor have I seen a .deb for it13:26
AlanBellhowever the gnome a11y people seem to be betting on caribou as their official keyboard13:26
AlanBellI couldn't build it either13:26
jbichamaybe we could alien Fedora's rpm13:26
AlanBellthe main developer was working on .deb files for it13:27
AlanBellPendulum: I was thinking of doing a blog post about the four UDS sessions13:28

cprofittif Accessibility has pages they want worked on we can add them to the list and the Documentation team (of UBT) will hopefully get them done over June and July16:57
Pendulumcprofitt: I'd suggest sending an e-mail to the accessibility list. I'm not 100% up to date to what got discussed at UDS (I wasn't there and by the time I got home from my holiday I was pretty ill so haven't had a chance to fully catch up)16:58
