MOday meeting notes for 15/10/2018

[Marco Martin]

David:
* I spent another day on stupid FF + wayland. I now have the buffer
issue reproducible in a super simple non-kwin test. Which is progress,
but not good progress.
* There's some news on the bug that plasmashell apparently locks up
and freezes on notifications. It seems it happens with oxygen and the
SuSE theme, but not breeze. I want to investigate that (probably
Dialog resize loop, probably dialog resize from contents should all be
based on implicitsize, not size of contents)
* At some point I think we need a dialog2; we can do that one right

Vlad:
 Done:
* Fixed flickering caused by the Dialog (Windows of type Dialog, not
Plasma Dialog discussed before) Parent effect;
* Fixed crashing of the Dim Inactive effect when some application
creates a window, then closes it, then creates it again;
* The Fade Desktop effect is no longer fades windows that have been
moved between virtual desktops, also it now implicitly supports the
new virtual desktop protocol.
