[05:09] <smurfix> Is anybody going to open this meeting / are we waiting for people / ???
[05:12] <pitti> smurfix: I pinged sabdfl
[05:15] <sabdfl> hi all
[05:15] <sabdfl> nothing in the wiki agenda
[05:16] <sabdfl> can we call for any other business?
[05:16] (Kamion/#ubuntu-meeting) I believe there were some NM candidates to approve
[05:16] (Kamion/#ubuntu-meeting) the note in the agenda is from last week's TB meeting if memory serves correctly
[05:16] <smurfix> Kamion: it serves
[05:17] <haggai> sabdfl asked me last week to ask here about NM
[05:17] <sabdfl> haggai: process is to become a contributor, then a maintainer in universe, then in main
[05:17] <sabdfl> Kamion: is there a list of NM candidates that the TB approved last week?
[05:18] (Kamion/#ubuntu-meeting) I'm just trawling the irclog
[05:18] <smurfix> the TB didn't
[05:19] <smurfix> they were told to ask here first
[05:19] <sabdfl> i think all we did was confirm people who had already been approved at the previous CC meeting
[05:19] (Kamion/#ubuntu-meeting) haggai is the only one I can see there who was referred to the CC for approval
[05:19] <smurfix> s/they/at least one person 
[05:19] (Kamion/#ubuntu-meeting) the other people mentioned were already approved last meeting
[05:19] <sabdfl> haggai: do you have a sponsor, someone on the existing maintainer team who can vouch for you?
[05:20] <sabdfl> or can you point us at upstream / other distro maintainership credentials?
[05:20] <haggai> plenty I hope :)
[05:20] (Kamion/#ubuntu-meeting) possibly enrico too, not clear on his current status
[05:20] <sabdfl> enrico's fully approved, both TB and CC
[05:20] <haggai> sabdfl: OOo / Debian maintainer etc
[05:20] <sabdfl> ah
[05:20] <sabdfl> packages in debian?
[05:20] (Kamion/#ubuntu-meeting) sabdfl: haggai is the OOo guy whose mail I referred to you last week
[05:20] <sabdfl> Kamion: chris?
[05:20] (Kamion/#ubuntu-meeting) yes
[05:20] <haggai> sabdfl: that's me
[05:21] <haggai> sorry for the obscure nick
[05:21] <sabdfl> certainly no objections from me, i'd already asked elmo to approve your key for KDE-related uploading
[05:21] <sabdfl> elmo, mako, comments on chris halls?
[05:22] (Kamion/#ubuntu-meeting) Chris' only Debian package in his own name is ayttm, but he's done a great deal of work in teams; I'm happy
[05:22] <elmo> sabdfl: no problems at all with haggai
[05:22] <sabdfl> mako around?
[05:22] (Kamion/#ubuntu-meeting) mako doesn't seem to be up yet
[05:22] <haggai> yeah OOo in a team is kind of a lot more more work than owning a normal package :)
[05:22] <sabdfl> if we have mdz and keybuk, maybe we can get TB go-ahead today too
[05:23] <smurfix> mako's been idle for 10h
[05:23] (Kamion/#ubuntu-meeting) haggai: quite so :-)
[05:23] <sabdfl> ok
[05:23] <sabdfl> i think that's a CC go ahead
[05:23] <sabdfl> don't want to wait a week for TB go ahead
[05:24] <haggai> ok thanks very much :)
[05:24] <sabdfl> haggai, if you can get an email from mdz to go with keybuk's go-ahead then you're sorted
[05:24] (Kamion/#ubuntu-meeting) mdz just showed up, I guess he's trawling backlog
[05:24] (mdz/#ubuntu-meeting) was distracted by the backlog on -devel actually :-)
[05:24] <Keybuk> haggai definitely has my go-ahead :)
[05:24] <sabdfl> elmo: will you act on a go-ahead for haggai from mdz?
[05:24] <sabdfl> i think this can extend to main ;-)
[05:25] <elmo> sure
[05:25] <sabdfl> elmo: do we have an easy way to let people upload to universe / multiverse only?
[05:25] <elmo> sabdfl: not right now, but it's an hour or so to implement
[05:26] <sabdfl> elmo: rock on ;-)
[05:26] <elmo> sabdfl: the existing approved maintainers - should they have access to main?
[05:26] <sabdfl> yes
[05:26] <elmo> ok
[05:27] <elmo> (they do right now)
[05:27] <sabdfl> we need to create a faster process for non-main uploaders
[05:27] <sabdfl> any other business?
[05:27] <sabdfl> kamion, thanks for standing in for mdz
[05:27] (mdz/#ubuntu-meeting) yes, thanks
[05:28] (Kamion/#ubuntu-meeting) np, will get back with progress later today; it was a relatively quiet week TBH
[05:28] <sabdfl> not in this house :-)
[05:28] (Kamion/#ubuntu-meeting) heh
[05:28] <sabdfl> ok
[05:28] <sabdfl> anything in connection with The Mataro Sessions people want to raise?
[05:29] <sabdfl> looking fwd to meeting the local LUG'ers
[05:29] <sabdfl> thanks everyone
[05:29] (mdz/#ubuntu-meeting) has a BOF about community processes already been proposed?
[05:29] <sabdfl> silbs: ^^?
[05:29] <silbs> yes, believe that's on the list
[05:29] <sabdfl> see you all there
[05:29] (Kamion/#ubuntu-meeting) we don't seem to have anything scheduled yet for bringing new Ubuntu maintainers up to speed
[05:29] <silbs> lulu is drafting a schedule now. so other suggestions for bofs would be welcome
[05:29] (Kamion/#ubuntu-meeting) might be worth having some kind of a Q&A session
[05:30] <mako> silbs: i think i had one or two
[05:30] <mako> Kamion: yeah, there is a plan for this
[05:30] <silbs> Kamion: what kind of q&a do you mean?
[05:30] <sabdfl> we haven't implemented some of the ideas that came out of oxford
[05:30] <sabdfl> "ubuntu enhancement proposals"
[05:30] <mako> Kamion: there will be a day for questions and more introductory stuff
[05:30] (mdz/#ubuntu-meeting) yet
[05:30] <sabdfl> be nice to have that up and running for the conf
[05:31] <sabdfl> we could have a bof on each significant proposal
[05:31] <sabdfl> mako: where are we on shipit stats?
[05:31] (Kamion/#ubuntu-meeting) silbs: what mako said; we have a number of non-Canonical Ubuntu maintainers coming to the conference, and I'm sure some of them have questions about process that are best answered in person; the non-Debian guys may also have technical problems we can help with
[05:32] <lulu> kamion: we have a BOF scheduled for this at the conf on the 8th
[05:32] (mdz/#ubuntu-meeting) there is documentation that needs to be written
[05:32] <smurfix> mako: ... and will there be a huge stack of CDs to carry off in Mataro?  ;-)
[05:32] <mako> sabdfl: i've been finalizing the dump from early last week.. but when i checked on thursday we had i think 800 orders between sunday and thursday so somewhere in the range of just under 2000 new order orders (average of ~10 cds) each way
[05:33] <mako> sabdfl: week
[05:33] (Kamion/#ubuntu-meeting) lulu: ok, good
[05:33] <sabdfl> ok
[05:33] <sabdfl> so 20,000 / week going out 
[05:33] <sabdfl> that's awesome
[05:33] <mako> sabdfl: it will fluctuate depending on press and such
[05:34] <sabdfl> can we wrap up?
[05:34] <sabdfl> elmo, mako, thanks
[05:34] <sabdfl> cheers
[05:34] <mako> yay, easy summary :)
[05:36] <haggai> thanks folks
[05:37] (Kamion/#ubuntu-meeting) awesome
