| bluesabre | That xfwm4 release looks like a good SRU candidate. | 00:06 |

| jphilips | bluesabre: this youtube mentioned some problem with the mouse cursor in snaps here https://youtu.be/xYnzqtPiK7s?t=337 | 00:09 |
| jphilips | youtuber* | 00:09 |
| bluesabre | I'll have to experiment with that. | 00:10 |
| jphilips | when he moves his mouse into the chromium or vlc windows, the mouse cursor turns black, strange that it would only effect xubuntu and not other flavors | 00:12 |
| bluesabre | Right. | 00:12 |

| Unit193 | bluesabre: Not really sure if I should go poking in here or -ot, but do you ever play with stuff like x2go? | 03:39 |
| ochosi | bluesabre: +1 on xfwm4 | 05:56 |

| jphilips | for all those that want to join, we are having a docs meeting today at 3pm UTC on zoom or jitsi | 09:41 |
| jphilips | if you have any suggestions to improvements to docs, please put them in here https://docs.google.com/document/d/1oGNc4nDmUkhk67-S07VKhOQ7tSWXUW6ureG8N7SVM_o/edit# | 09:42 |
| bluesabre | Unit193: first time I've ever heard of x2go | 11:03 |
| Unit193 | OK, nevermind then! :D | 11:03 |
| jphilips | i heard about x2go from wimpy, he was always talking about it with mate | 11:03 |
| Unit193 | I tried that and nomachine a looong time ago but always got the default Xfce desktop (and usually corrupted Xubuntu), I decided to take a look into it again and set it up so it'd start the Xubuntu desktop. Buuut...moot. | 11:05 |
| Unit193 | ochosi: You mentioned keepassxc, fwiw I packaged up the latest version if you wanted it. | 12:26 |
| ochosi | cool | 12:28 |
| ochosi | yes, i wanna work in the timed copy support for keepassxc | 12:28 |
| ochosi | to clipman | 12:28 |
| ochosi | it was "almost finished" (tm) | 12:28 |
| Unit193 | Sooo, I'm guessing it's not needed. Anyway, screw it. I popped up the shiny xfconf to https://launchpad.net/~xubuntu-dev/+archive/ubuntu/experimental/+packages | 12:39 |
| bluesabre | Shiny | 12:40 |
| jphilips | bluesabre: its time now for the meeting | 15:00 |
| bluesabre | If anybody wants to join us to talk docs... | 15:14 |

| Unit193 | jphilips: You asked about thunar-shares-plugin, did I respond to that? | 23:15 |
| jphilips | Unit193: don't think so. did you know why its not shipped by default | 23:18 |
| Unit193 | I mean samba isn't really shipped by default either, it's not in the repos because it's just yet another thing to maintain. It's not in Debian because there's already a lot of packages and few maintainers, with logs of bug reports to handle. We already have a few packages more than Debian, with questionable benefit. | 23:19 |
| Unit193 | Nobody has really pushed for it, so it's in a handy PPA and that's it. | 23:20 |
| Unit193 | xfdashboard is another we have over Debian, but I've heard from nobody that actually uses it. Nobody in the team does. | 23:20 |
| jphilips | i was thinking to suggest we ship samba by default or is there an alternative linux file sharing that is easy to configure and use | 23:21 |
| jphilips | xfdashboard is used in voyager, xubuntu derivative | 23:21 |
| Unit193 | Err, no we don't really need samba. A fair number of people don't really need it, those that do can install, and it does expose your system much more too. | 23:22 |
| Unit193 | Voyager != Xubuntu. :P | 23:22 |
| Unit193 | (Though good to know, I didn't know that they did.) | 23:22 |
| jphilips | so what is the linux way to share files across the network? | 23:23 |
| Unit193 | Depends on the person, there's NFS and I use sshfs. | 23:23 |
| jphilips | are these shipped by default and is there a means to enable the sharing of folders using these mechanisms through thunar | 23:24 |
| jphilips | i was going through our docs looking for a means to do so, but nothing was on the internet/networks page https://docs.xubuntu.org/2004/user/C/internet-networks.html | 23:26 |
| Unit193 | That's because nobody ever wrote anything up, there's plenty of docs already for file sharing. I believe there's a couple different in the Ubuntu docs. The more docs we have, the more we have to maintain. The goal is to keep the duplication down. | 23:27 |
| Unit193 | As, clearly, we're not great about writing docs. :D | 23:27 |
| Unit193 | !info xubuntu-docs | 23:27 |
| ubottu | xubuntu-docs (source: xubuntu-docs): Xubuntu documentation. In component universe, is optional. Version 18.04.1 (disco), package size 4340 kB, installed size 11786 kB | 23:27 |
| Unit193 | > 18.04 | 23:27 |
| jphilips | well atleast we should link to the ubuntu docs from our docs | 23:28 |
| jphilips | well we had a docs meeting today and hopefully that will all change | 23:28 |
| Unit193 | *hopefully* ;) | 23:28 |
| jphilips | well i'm committed to it and so is bluesabre, and we have till the next release to fix it, so i'm quite sure its gonna happen :D | 23:30 |
| jphilips | your help would also be appreciated | 23:30 |
| Unit193 | I have the translations and some local fixes, but most of those have been sitting there for quite some time. | 23:31 |
| jphilips | main help for now is to identify what needs to be added, removed or fixed | 23:32 |
| jphilips | this is the main doc we are working from https://docs.google.com/document/d/1oGNc4nDmUkhk67-S07VKhOQ7tSWXUW6ureG8N7SVM_o/edit# | 23:32 |
| jphilips | so if you read a docs page, just make a brief note of your thoughts | 23:33 |
| jphilips | bluesabre: is looking into us possibly moving to some other infra like maybe wiki or github/gitlab | 23:34 |
| jphilips | sorry that shouldnt have been a ping :D | 23:34 |
| Unit193 | Launchpad is the code hosting site for the rest of Ubuntu, it doesn't really make sense to move that. :/ | 23:39 |
| jphilips | i suggested that we make github the main and launchpad the mirror | 23:40 |
| jphilips | sean will look into the various possibilities | 23:40 |
| Unit193 | Unfortunate, but alright then. | 23:41 |
| Unit193 | I guess I can just start pasting git format-patch into the channel if it doesn't work out :P | 23:41 |
| jphilips | so i guess you dont have push rights then :D | 23:42 |
| Unit193 | On LP yeah, because I'm an xubuntu-dev member. | 23:44 |
| jphilips | oh, so you mean you dont use gitlab/github, now i get you ;D | 23:45 |
| Unit193 | For the past release I didn't touch x-d-s much anyway though, mainly did the Xfce packaging. | 23:45 |
| jphilips | do you do work also on the debian side as well? | 23:48 |
