Hi,
I'm out of town in meetings all day tommorrow so won't make it to

in 8.2 AFAIK are touchpad issues (7341) and wireless suspend resume

I think we all agree that communications can improve and constructive ideas
on how to do that are always welcome.
I'm not sure how you decided that we had consensus on following Mozilla's

For testing, Scott, we are growing a set of each new keyboard/language

The 'ultimate' test for fonts, translations, keyboard integration is to load

I know that Nepal is a small potato compared to Peru and Uruguay but
there are two features that we really need. Furthermore, I think these
features would immensely benefit the bigger deployments.
