harmony VS howdy

There is a list of release blockers for a minimum viable release, but even if they are cleared before summer, there is still plenty of work in integrating Mozilla's BMO mega-extension into the core. The whole thing is about harmonising Mozilla's fork with upstream Bugzilla.

We are actually using the latest version. Unfortunately the version Mozilla use is an incompatible fork and the project that tried to remove the Mozilla specific parts of the fork seems to be dormant https://github.com/bugzilla/harmony.

please have a look at https://github.com/bugzilla/harmony

yeah, I meant to get harmony up and running via docker but I haven't had time yet. It's cooking time now.

you can even use facial recognition with IR webcam

I just bought a go 2 (not laptop go) this weekend and installed fedora 37 on it. Almost everything worked without the surface kernel except the camera requires v4l2loopback kernel drivers to create a gstreamer device for apps that don’t support libcamera. There were only old versions available in copr but no surface kernel headers available so I couldn’t build the kernel modules. I switched to ubuntu 22.10 and got similar hardware support but more available packages. I’m still trying to figure out how to get the IR sensors to work so I can use howdy for login/sudo. https://github.com/boltgolt/howdy

First, you'll need to install Howdy.

I've tried using Howdy, but that doesn't seem to work. It's probably because of this issue

Just like with digicams, it is not just about the sensor, but also the image processing itself. Should we omit the IR sensor to replace it with a better firmware-based noise-reduction system? But what about "Howdy" / "Hello" users, if we go this route?
