Here's the notes from the call today about KDE Windows.
- State of the CI, invent.kde.org
- Ben is working on the docker image for windows and seeing how to
integrate with GitLab/invent
- We might need more builders, hardware
- TODO Hannah will see if we can get more hardware
- TODO we need someone to help on the CI, maybe using docker directly
- Adoption of the different apps
- there's several applications on the windows store
- KDE Connect (Beta) crashes a lot
- Kate & Okular seem fine
- some applicatiosn are just linking to the
binary-factory.kde.org, which is not something to work in the longer
run
- we could get apps somewhat easily on the windows store
- common problems
- which style? breeze?
- installer size should be optimised sometimes
- Icons!
- autotools dependencies are no fun
- static builds FTW?
- Qt Patch Collection isn't tested for Windows
- Make a living position for apps
- Helping CI/CD, Ask Ben
- QA
- Relay Feedback
- Training Maintainers about what we need on the Microsoft Store
(existing training may be available)
- centralising metadata information
- Documentation for devs
- Whatever we left TBD in the Akademy meeting
- Gone through it
- ARM builds
- do we need binaries there?
- what's the marketshare for microsoft windows? nobody knows
