Hello all,
Slowly coming back to activity in Fedora.
I think this bug should be a blocker. The world is full of non-English
speakers. And even the English speakers may use two or more layouts (as I
do myself). If you add a layout but your keyboard seems to remain the
same, it's quite confusing and annoying to any user, but particularly to a
beginner. Personally I couldn't vote because I completely missed the
meeting, but I would vote for making this one a blocker any time I'd had a
chance.
My 2 cents.
Kind regards,
Silvia

Carlos - can you take a look at this before the workstation WG
meeting at
13:00 UTC on Monday? It's not clear to me either the exact impact or
whether it's likely to be a simple fix.
