 your thoughts on espeak for lubuntu?

Given lack of spec for what we want to do, if someone is working on
speech output for Lubuntu, using espeak at least as a quick fix seems
reasonable.

BUT this question in itself is cart before the horse symdrome!

First, get a spec for what accessibility we want to see (and have
resources to implement) in Lubuntu 11.10 Oneiric.  *Then* discussion on
what software to use, what integration work needs doing, etc. can start.

If the Ubuntu Accessibility team doesn't have a basic prioritized list
of things to implement so your OS is considered accessible, then, IMO,
we should shelve accessibility features in Lubuntu for this cycle, and
start up a blueprint for accessibility in Lubuntu Prolific Panda (or
whatever it will be named!).

It's not as though we have a surplus of devs standing idle with no work
for them to do in Oneiric :)

[Lubuntu-desktop] Lubuntu 11.10 roadmap proposal

2011-05-25 Thread Julien Lavergne
Hi,

This is a proposal for the roadmap of Lubuntu 11.10 :

 * June 2nd : Alpha 1
 * June 14th : End of proposal for applications by default
 * June 19th : Decision for the modifications of default applications
 * July 7th : Alpha 2
 * August 4th : Alpha 3
 * August 11th : Feature Freeze (no more new stuff and new version)
 * August 17th : End of proposal for artwork
 * August 21nd : Decision for Artwork
 * September 1st : Beta 1
 * September 15th : Documentation / String Freeze
 * September 22nd : Beta 2
 * September 29th : Final Freeze (only critical changes)
 * October 13th : Final release

We share the same deadline than Ubuntu. Specificities are for proposals
and decisions for default applications and artwork.

Concerning the Alpha 1, it will probably be still build with the old
script (with install-recommends turn on). The goal is to have a real ISO
for Alpha 2.

Let me know if you have comments about it :)

Regards,
Julien Lavergne

Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] Lubuntu 11.10 roadmap proposal

2011-05-25 Thread Chris
Aloha Julian,

I'd have to get my head into it, but I think it's good that we keep in line
with the Ubuntu roadmap. Let's hope they don't change the roadmap during the
game AGAIN! By the way, I still think the normal roadmap has deadlines for
default apps, artwork and everything. But that's just a side note.

With metta,

Chris Druif

  Lubuntu 11.04 final.

  Is this a problem in LXDE itself or Lubuntu?

  What players have you tried?

 Lubuntu just froze again while trying to play a video. It happened
 just like how it was when I was trying to run that virtual machine in
 Lubuntu.

 I'm going to try VLC, and see if that does anything differently.


 Have you tested your RAM?
No, because I have had been able to get the videos to work on Firefox in
Ubuntu. I'll try Firefox and see what happens.

Ubuntu don't have hard deadline for default apps and artwork. For
default apps, the essential discussion are done during the UDS. For
Artwork, the normal deadline is UI Freeze (August 25th), but it's not
always true :)

[Lubuntu-desktop] Fwd: Lubuntu 11.04 MinimalInstall

Hiyas,

do we have anyone who knows Catalan or Spanish to help Ximo out? Trying to
do support by translation software is seriously not fun! (I still have the
scars).

 My mother tongue is Catalan, although it could be noted as due to my low
level ofEnglish using the help of a translator writing. We also speak /
write in Spanish and I defended with a little French spoken, not written.
Thanks for the help.

Hello Ximo,

thank you for the email. As your English is far better than any attempt that
I may make to speak in your language, could you please let me know which
language or languages you are comfortable with and I will try to get you
someone who knows them so that you can more easily discuss things.
