How to hold-as-right-click with a stylus on GNOME Shell?
by Luya Tshimbalanga
Hello team,
I attempt to use *hold*-as-*right*-*click *with a styluson GNOME Wayland
session but nothing happens. Does anyone using a convertible laptop run
a similar issue?
Tested on HP Envy x360 15 Ryzen 5 2500u.
Thanks.

socializing upcoming GNOME UI changes?
by Matthew Miller
Looks like GNOME 40 won't be just another number — there's a significant
update to the Overview, with in particular workspaces moved from vertical to
horizontal. And it looks like the dash goes at the bottom now?
The changes look well-thought through and sensible, but it's also the most
significant change to the GNOME 3 UI in a long time.
The GNOME blog here https://blogs.gnome.org/shell-dev/ is a good start, but
I think we should plan to have some Fedora Magazine articles about this as
well.
Also, is there an extension which brings back the old layout for people who
want to stay the way it is?

Workstation WG meetings holiday schedule
by Michael Catanzaro
Hi,
The Workstation Working Group will no meet on Tuesday, December 22 or
Tuesday, December 29 due to winter holidays. I will try to turn off
calendar reminders for these dates, but if you receive a reminder, it
should be ignored.
Our next meeting will be Tuesday, January 5.

Fedora Workstation contributors -- do you need ARM hardware?
by Matthew Miller
Hey all. We have a program to help get Fedora OS more broadly tested on ARM
hardware. While Fedora IoT is the main focus, we also have some budget to
supply small devices directly to project contributors who are working on
Fedora Workstation. If this would help you, let me know (off-list). I'll
need your shipping address and which device (or possibly devices) you could
use from this list:
Jetson NX
Jetson Nano
Pinebook Pro
RockPro64
The Raspberry Pi 400 is also an option, but be aware that this is not going
to be magic and smooth and probably doesn't even work right now, so I'd
prefer to reserve those for people with experience in hardware enablement.

more newbie-friendly dual-boot instructions?
by Matthew Miller
I came across this question on Ask Fedora:
https://ask.fedoraproject.org/t/problems-making-dual-boot-fedora-w10/10766
where the person is having trouble getting Fedora Workstation set up for a
dual-boot-with-windows-10 environment.
There's a paradox or irony here: this is one of the most complicated things
we might ask completely new users to do, yet also, new users just dipping
their toes are probably most likely to want the comfort of being able to
boot back to their old OS.
Do we have better hand-holding instructions for doing this somewhere that I
could point this user to and which we could make more prominent?
