Sorry for the delay...

Minutes Plasma 'hangout', 8-8-2016, 12:00 CET

Present: mgraesslin, bshah, Sho, sebas, notmart, Riddell, romangg,  kbroulik

bshah:
* cleaned up patch to powerdevil: https://phabricator.kde.org/D2369
* Debugging the kaccounts and spacebar on phone

Sho:
- Minor changes to Qt Quick hover handling patch, got +2 to land in Qt 5.6.x 
and up now ...
- Rewrote the way hover handling activation and first geometry export to kwin 
in task delegates works, should be more reliable across Qt versions
- Fixed drag-onto-task-delegate-to-raise with one specific options combination
- Did UI and fixes work on Netrunner's Simple Menu launcher menu (scratch/
hein/simplemenu.git)
- Made a Konversation 1.6.2 hotfix release due to a prominent crash
- Various code review (FV patches, ..) and working with the GSoC student
- Bit of downtime due to minor food poisoning last week

mgraesslin:
* fixed the translucence/window move bug
* investigated and fixed why plasma doesn't pick up that compositing is on at 
startup
* Libinput touchpad gesture support added - how should we use it?
* libinput requirement raised to 1.2 in order to support wacom tablets in 
future
* Changed default background of lockscreen to the one requested by VDG
* fixed a few problems causing Xwayland to crash in nested setup
* new test infrastructure for mocked OpenGL - first test for GLPlatform.
* removal of unredirect fullscreen merged
* fixed incorrect pointer enter events
* ksmserver logout greeter refactoring waiting for reviews
* Launcher through modifier key - up for review D2356 and D2357

notmart:
* work on look and feel creator application
* separate lnf branch: make possible to pass the applet geometry in scripting, 
have to merge this week
** support to pass the applet size in applet creation in ContainmentInterface 
in plasma-framework
* new ksplash
* kirigami: fixed bugs in the bottom action buttons (investigating on a bug of 
undetected binding loop still), release should happen this week then
* merged kglobalaccel changes, please test if works well enough
* fixed some problems with the new multiscreen handling in plasmashell: 
removing a primary screen caused problems

Riddell:
* finalize the Plasma 5.8 schedule
* what is needed in Neon

romangg:
* https://phabricator.kde.org/D2370 first version of atomic mode setting on 
review \o/

kbroulik:
* Added back mnemonics (underlined letters) for task manager context menu, got 
lost in the port
* Plasma NM indicates flight mode in its icon now
* Worked on allowing Kicker to re-populate context menus asynchronously so we 
can bring back the "Uninstall app" context menu.


sebas:
* libkscreen bugfixing:
    * fixed interesting CRTC problem https://phabricator.kde.org/D2336
    * open review: https://phabricator.kde.org/D2330
    * worked with marco to make plasmashell's primary display behave (notmart 
rocks.)
* bug triaging, especially dock usecases
* general situation: really happy with last week's progress, it works reliable 
on the systems here now
    * please test!
