Day 1 was more subdued, but it was very productive, with discussions about rendering architecture, GL and Vulkan, and accessibility. Matthias and I have also worked on making the Text interface for accessible objects public, and we’re pretty close to finishing the merge request

If you're adapting your app for #AppleVisionPro, you've probably added `contentShape` to your custom button styles to get a better `.hoverEffect()`

This also has a nicer side effect for VoiceOver highlighting, as it will now match the actual UI element!

The folks over at @koena have been bullied by French #overlay vendor #FACILiti (and are not the only ones). France does not have the same anti-SLAPP protections as I did in my own case.

Koena can use your help:

Building and coordinating a team to support the GNOME project is one of the most fulfilling job I've had.

I find these are some of the biggest challenges

• Lots of people and organizations to coordinate with 🗺️
• Some projects are cans of worms 🥫🐛
• So many things to do 🏃

But it's very rewarding and everyone is brilliant and passionate.

I think I'll start sharing more personal updates on our efforts
