jbicha | I tried caribou on Fedora 15 | 13:19 |
---|---|---|
AlanBell | jbicha: how was it? | 13:20 |
jbicha | it uses a popup keyboard next to the textfield which kinda works except that sometimes it's covering important parts of the app | 13:21 |
jbicha | so it doesn't work if you use Gnome Terminal fullscreen as it'd be in the way | 13:21 |
jbicha | but if you "window" the terminal, it can work | 13:21 |
jbicha | and it doesn't work in some apps like Firefox | 13:22 |
jbicha | the included keyboard doesn't have any F- keys or the Shift key, but I suppose if you're using a mouse | 13:23 |
jbicha | you could just browse to a menu and wouldn't be doing keyboard shortcuts like that | 13:23 |
jbicha | it didn't appear to be integrated into Fedora's gdm login screen but maybe I wasn't doing it right | 13:24 |
jbicha | *and the popup keyboard isn't movable, it just pops up where it wants to which I didn't like | 13:25 |
jbicha | caribou's pretty new, only 0.2 so maybe these things will be worked out | 13:25 |
AlanBell | yup | 13:25 |
AlanBell | if I can get it installed I would like to try and see if it has archtectural benefits over onboard | 13:26 |
AlanBell | not seeing it at the moment tbh | 13:26 |
jbicha | I wasn't able to get it built from jhbuild nor have I seen a .deb for it | 13:26 |
AlanBell | however the gnome a11y people seem to be betting on caribou as their official keyboard | 13:26 |
AlanBell | I couldn't build it either | 13:26 |
jbicha | maybe we could alien Fedora's rpm | 13:26 |
AlanBell | the main developer was working on .deb files for it | 13:27 |
AlanBell | Pendulum: I was thinking of doing a blog post about the four UDS sessions | 13:28 |
Pendulum | AlanBell: go for it | 13:33 |
AlanBell | Pendulum: ok, ready for you to check and publish | 16:36 |
AlanBell | actually, hang, on, will add a bit about the invisible exhibition | 16:38 |
Pendulum | k | 16:39 |
Pendulum | will wait then | 16:39 |
AlanBell | ok | 16:45 |
AlanBell | just added picture and link to pleia2's blog | 16:46 |
Pendulum | AlanBell: not sure if it's going to save because it says you're also editing, but the Invisible Exhibition trip was Wednesday, not Thursday | 16:50 |
Pendulum | otherwise looks good | 16:50 |
webczat | AlanBell: What about atk-wrapper? | 16:50 |
Pendulum | AlanBell: so I'll exit and if you change what day, then it's good to go from my POV | 16:50 |
cprofitt | Pendulum: you here? | 16:53 |
Pendulum | cprofitt: yes | 16:56 |
cprofitt | we are starting to gather our wiki pages for Summer of Documentation | 16:56 |
cprofitt | if 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 July | 16:57 |
Pendulum | cprofitt: 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 |
* cprofitt nods | 16:58 | |
cprofitt | will do | 16:58 |
Pendulum | that way if people have an idea of what definitely needs to get done, they can respond | 16:58 |
cprofitt | sorry to hear you were ill | 16:58 |
UndiFineD | it was discussed to get at least a chapter into the ubuntu manual | 17:02 |
cprofitt | UndiFineD: did you get the quiche? | 17:03 |
UndiFineD | its in the oven now | 17:03 |
cprofitt | cool | 17:03 |
Pendulum | mmm... quiche | 17:03 |
UndiFineD | no not too cool, | 17:03 |
cprofitt | I like quiche | 17:04 |
