dychen_ hi Jun 23 15:07
juhp Sean posted an interesting idea to fedora-i18n-list yesterday which I haven't thought carefully about - perhaps we can talk on it later Jun 23 15:07
juhp FWN still pending too Jun 23 15:09
-->jni_ (n=jni@60.247.97.97) has joined #fedora-meeting Jun 23 15:10
juhp I18N/Bugs#Statistics Jun 23 15:12

juhp but we need to keep working not that Jun 23 15:12
juhp * restricting listed gdm locales by langsupport [Ankit] Jun 23 15:13
juhp this is already a bit old - there was some discusion the fedora mailing-list started by Ankit about control the list of langs shown in gdm better Jun 23 15:13
juhp the idea i came up with was having gdm provide a system config for controlling the default langs that appear in the initial lang menu Jun 23 15:14
-->jonmasters (n=jcm@dallas.jonmasters.org) has joined #fedora-meeting Jun 23 15:14
<--inode0 has quit ("Leaving.") Jun 23 15:14
juhp need to file that upstream I guess and see what they say Jun 23 15:15
juhp did anyone follow the thread? it was also on f-i-l Jun 23 15:15
dychen_ juhp, the gdm one? Jun 23 15:15
juhp i think so Jun 23 15:16
juhp my idea also involves langpack meta packages Jun 23 15:16
juhp basically Ankit original request was that languages should only appear for the user if they are properly supported with installed langpacks Jun 23 15:17
juhp that seems too strict but a compromise of giving more prominence to langs with langpacks (ie meta packages setting a gdm system priority lang list) would make sense IMHO Jun 23 15:18
paragn juhp, http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gdm-list/2009-June/msg00003.html Jun 23 15:18
juhp paragn: aha thanks Jun 23 15:19
juhp interesting Jun 23 15:19
juhp that seems to be taking the more restrictive approach Jun 23 15:19
paragn we already have similar bug I guess https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=460711 Jun 23 15:19
buggbot Bug 460711: medium, medium, ---, jmccann, ASSIGNED, Too many locales listed in language selection Jun 23 15:19
paragn yes Jun 23 15:19
juhp which may be good for some more localized/custom spins but I don't think we can use in general in fedora Jun 23 15:20
paragn I agree Jun 23 15:20
juhp well I filed an rfe for my idea Jun 23 15:20
