3. Prepping for Beta
This is what we have to do by Aug 18 - basically get that wallpaper idea polished enough for shipment into beta. Ideally we'd have 4 versions of it, with different colors, for the Fedora time of day wallpaper feature. Here is an example: https://www.thetestspecimen.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/fedora-29-dawn-day-dusk-night.jpg
We also have four size formats for the wallpaper typically:
- Normalish 3840 x 3072 (5:4)
- Standard 4096 x 3072 (4:3)
- TV-Wide 4200 x 2363 (16:9)
- Wide 4200 x 2625 (16:10)
Some changes I would like to address:
Starting from Fedora 32, Standard format will be the only size to work
on because majority of modern desktop environments automatically adjusts
the wallpaper to the corresponding screen ratio depending of the
settings. The rationale is to simplify the workflow so no more extra
Normalish, TV-Wide and Wide formats in addition of less size of
packaging file. =) The inspiration was from GNOME team after looking at
the functionality of the time of day Adwatia wallpaper.
As part of system change for Fedora 33, time of day for the default
wallpaper will be used as default [1]. As a maintainer, I found out it
was not the case since Fedora 7 Moonshine.
