Can UX please provide an update to 2.2 RTL specs for 2.5, from https://mozilla.app.box.com/s/bcm3s5i2v6js5uk0ws3tsywse8bgncgo
Then we can link that updated spec to the RTL wiki here https://wiki.mozilla.org/B2G/RTL/2.5
thanks!

Hi Delphine! Can you please let us know what you need for 2.5 that isn't included in the current (2.2) spec? That spec wasn't meant to be release specific.

Passing NI to Rob as FYI and further comment if needed.

Thanks for pinging the UX team!

[Delphine Lebédel [:delphine - Use needinfo]]

Hey Tiffanie! Actually, yes, those specs are release specific to 2.2 :) Stephany made them in haste in order to meet the 2.2 schedule, so they are not the "full rtl" specs. I would check in with Wilfred for more info about what we need for 2.5 as per RTL. I see he's already CCed himself there, so we should be good :) thanks!

My understanding is that in 2.0m the task switcher (and edge gesture) *was* flipped so the most recent sheet was on the left vs. right. This spec says it should not be switched. So, more generally I think we need to consolidate and update the 2.0m spec so we know someone has re-evalutated its suggestions in the light of current plans for 2.5 as well as learning from v2.0m and v2.2, and reflects any relevant UX changes to gaia in the interim.

Hi Wilfred,
I think the RTL spec for 2.5 requires discussion with Phoxygen and refine but using 2.0M spec per offline discussion.
Please keep us updated when discussion is on-going with Phoxygen.
Thanks.

I was not aware of these changes - so I will find out who from UX can help us create an updated spec for this.

Agreed - we need UX to create adapted specs for 2.5, and to work with some Arabic community members to review that final spec so we're sure we're not getting anything wrong

I understand UX is really short-handed. Rather than hold up this work, perhaps I can get the source files and work with Delphine and the community to make these changes?

Hi Sam...

Sorry for the delay... I just took a look and swilkes (being as organized as she is) put the source files in the box folder.

Thanks Rob, our contractor should be owning and delivering this 2.5 spec as I now understand it, but we'll keep this option as a fallback
