Agenda

• review actions from last call
• review work items

Minutes

• Action review
  • qws packaged; needs another .symbol file attempt; otherwise we drop symbols for maverick
  • renderbench bug not yet filed, carried over
• work items
  • all in line; though lots of work todo
  • asac pointed out that work item tracker currently times out and pitti bumped to one run in 2h so we might get back more WI/specs not seen before
• Team meeting
  • has to happen now that team grew
  • thursday shortly after to also allow to tom gall to join
  • thursday so we have fresh weekly update for release meeting
  • maybe only IRC or together with phone; but we should start with phone
  • we have a public conf line; mumble has public servers but we havent tried how well they work; also windows/mac/other distro clients might not be ready for use
  • 1on1 calls will still exists.
• good news
  • alf reported that slomo accepted the patch for making cairo-perf tools available
  • asac wondered if we need to pre-patch ubuntu to make feature freeze
  • alf reported that slomo committed to debian svn and seb128 to pull from there
  • alf to raise to issue if seb128 doesnt upload by lunch wed 11th Aug
• clutter/mutter
  • alf sent email to stakeholders about new packaging
  • alf tested to upgrade with unity installed
  • alf tested replacing glx with egl variant; packaging wise it worked; runtime needs to be validated still somehow
  • alf said that texture from pixmap isn't really working
  • maybe some investigation needs to be done for software fallback
  • asac said that we could upload without egl working properly.
  • alf to try to use x11 software rendering
  • alf suggested to use the mesa approach that does not need new extension (see below) rather than inventing a new extension (also see below)

    • new extension example from nokia available here: http://maemo.gitorious.org/fremantle-hildon-desktop/clutter_0_8/blobs/master/clutter/eglx/clutter-eglx-texture-pixmap.c

    • without new extension approach could be like this mesa demo: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/tree/progs/egl/opengles1/texture_from_pixmap.c?h=lp-surface-tiling

      • need to find out if this works with gles2 as well
      • if that works, we can move the gles2 code from above to clutter 1.2.9
      • and also port it to 1.3 and upstream the code.
  • jammy or sachin could help out:
    1. implement/patch/pull-in the mesa test program from the upstream branch and try to port it to gles2 if its needed
    2. implement clutter texture_from_pixmap like the test program
  • asac to check with RAOF what we can do about the mesa test program and whether a new release is planned
  • asac to check with jammy/sachin about who can help out
  • asac to reach out to TI/freescale and friends to suggest this approach.
• Stskeeps from maemo contacted asac to align the SONAME of vendor GLES/EGL libs like mesa is doing
  • might be a good vector to talk about other graphics related things like this clutter project.
