juhp fedora-i18n meeting is starting here shortly Mar 17 14:58
mharris I always found "i18n" a funny way to abbreviate that. Mar 17 14:59
mharris Since it is an abbreviation of the English word, and so the abbreviation isn't very international ;) Mar 17 14:59

mharris "Due to their length, the terms are frequently abbreviated to the numeronyms i18n (where 18 stands for the number of letters between the i and the n in internationalization, a usage coined at DEC in the 1970s or 80s[1])" Mar 17 15:02
mharris http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I18n ;) Mar 17 15:03
juhp oh is that what they call them cool Mar 17 15:03
tagoh3 aha Mar 17 15:03
juhp mharris: thanks for that - didn't know they went that far back Mar 17 15:03
juhp learnt a new word... Mar 17 15:04
mharris I wasn't totally sure either, just tried to remember the first time I saw i18n in usage.  :) Mar 17 15:04
mharris which word, "numeronyms"? I never heard that one before. :) Mar 17 15:05
juhp ping paragn Mar 17 15:05
-->ankit (n=ankit@202.80.58.211) has joined #fedora-meeting Mar 17 15:05

juhp ok let's get started Mar 17 15:06
juhp # IBus Mar 17 15:07
juhp http://tinyurl.com/fedora-ibus-bugs Mar 17 15:08
juhp there will be an ibus project meeting on Friday, but if there is anything we should discuss now we can Mar 17 15:09
-->K410 (n=Kaio@fedora/Kaio) has joined #fedora-meeting Mar 17 15:09

-->warren (n=warren@redhat/wombat/warren) has joined #fedora-meeting Mar 17 15:11
tagoh3 nope from me. Mar 17 15:12
juhp warren informed me he did a usability test with a Japanese windows user and got some helpful feedback and going to file some bugs based on that Mar 17 15:12
juhp sorry was just going through the latest bugs Mar 17 15:12
warren I will transcribe all the notes into text and file bugs tomorrow Mar 17 15:12
warren 15 pages of handwritten notes Mar 17 15:13
juhp Pravin isn't here but nearly finished ibus-sayura for Sinhala Mar 17 15:13
juhp warren: awesome! <applause/> :) Mar 17 15:13
warren juhp: 2 hours of user testing, Windows IME vs SCIM vs ibus Mar 17 15:13
juhp fantastic effort! Mar 17 15:13
warren surprisingly anthy is a lot better than I thought it was. Mar 17 15:14
warren only ibus implemntation has problems Mar 17 15:14
warren anyway, I really need to sleep Mar 17 15:14
juhp we know that ibus-anthy needs some love - we need to assign the package to someone familiar with anthy/Japanese and delegate some bugs Mar 17 15:14
juhp warren: hehe :) Mar 17 15:15
warren (do you have Japanese engineers?) Mar 17 15:15
juhp well there is tagoh3 and me at least Mar 17 15:15

juhp I think bug 488666 is the most serious bug currently for f11 Mar 17 15:17
buggbot Bug https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=488666 medium, low, ---, phuang, ASSIGNED, candidate window cursor keybindings not intuitive Mar 17 15:17
