mdzam I the only one who is unable to login to the website, and therefore edit the wiki?05:00
Keybukmorning matt05:00
pittimdz: I added an USN today, worked fine05:00
Kamionmdz: elmo fixed that earlier today, he said05:00
mdzah, so he did05:00
Kamionit was broken for me this morning05:00
mdzthanks, elmo05:00
sabdflhi all05:00
sivanghey sabdfl 05:01
amuhey sabdfl 05:01
mdzfirst, is there anyone here who is going through the maintainer process, and needs tech board approval?05:01
mdzI believe at least jbailey is in that position05:01
zulyou have to be approved by the cc first correct?05:01
Keybukthere was at least one according to my sms from elmo05:02
=== linuxboy [~anon@yoda.frogfoot.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting
mdzzul: not necessarily, accrording to the docs as they stand, but that seems to be the way it works out in practice05:02
ajmitchmdz: myself also, but I don't have CC approval yet05:02
mdzbecause CC needs to approve you as a member first05:02
jbaileymdz: Yes.05:02
zulhmmm...ill wait for the cc then ;)05:03
mdzif we have more time at the end, and a CC quorum, we'll see if we can take care of you guys as well05:03
sabdfllikely05:03
sabdfllet's tr to get it all done today05:03
mdzbut for now...sabdfl, Keybuk on jbailey?05:04
sabdflyes!05:04
Keybukwouldn't trust him with a barge pole :o)05:04
=== ogra [~ogra@pD95F88AA.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting
Keybukyes, of course :p05:04
mdzyes on my part as well05:04
mdzjbailey: congratulations!05:05
=== jbailey does a snoopy dance!
mdzI think "mail elmo" is the next step in the process05:05
sabdflsmurfs, snoopy's, we got it all05:05
sabdflsigned CoC05:05
ajmitchwell that was easy for you, jbailey 05:05
mdzsigned CoC came with being a member05:05
jbaileyajmitch: It's true.  My wife's a dancer, she taught me.05:05
ajmitchcongrats :)05:05
sivangjbailey: congrets05:06
mdzmoving on with the agenda05:06
mdzwho added this item about zinf?05:06
mdzI asked for more information in the wiki, but there was no followup05:06
mdzso I think it has been abandoned05:07
ograjbailey: hey jbailey :)05:07
mdzthe other seed change on the table is gs-esp05:07
Keybukzinf would need to replace something (rhythmbox?) given its feature list05:07
Keybukand I'm inclined to stick with rb as it's known good05:07
Kamionhasn't the gs-esp seed change already happened?05:08
mdzhmm, so it did.  no one seemed interested :-)05:08
mdzis germinate doing the right thing with it?05:08
Kamiondefined as?05:08
mdzusing it instead of gs05:08
mdzto satisfy all the or-ed dependencies05:08
Kamionthat's what cdimage seems to be doing, at least05:08
mdzok, let's follow up after the meeting to confirm05:09
mdzand then roll a new ubuntu-meta05:09
sabdflesp?05:09
mdzthat's the end of the agenda05:09
mdzany other business?05:09
sabdflthis is a record05:09
sivanghehe05:09
pittisabdfl: psql 8?05:09
ajmitchthat was awfully quick05:09
Keybukwas gonna say, this is the shortest TB meeting *ever&05:09
fabbionewow 9 minutes!05:09
pittisabdfl: while we are at it?05:09
mdzsabdfl: http://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2005-January/003776.html05:09
sabdflmdz: pitti has psql 8.0 packages...05:09
Keybukand now pitti is going to say "language packs" and ruin it all <g>05:10
ograerm, what about other maintainer candidates ?05:10
pittialthough, that would spoil the record05:10
pittiKeybuk: "language packs"05:10
mdzpsql 8 sounds like a massive UVF exception05:10
pittiso?05:10
Kamionesp => "Easy Software Products", the cupsys people I think05:10
pittito be more clear05:10
pittiI'm _working_ on psql 8 packages05:10
sabdflmdz: it would not replace 7.4.605:10
pittiactually I'm working on a completely new architecture for all major postgresql versions05:10
mdzoh, ok then05:10
pittiso I don't have releasable packages ready by now05:10
sabdflthe idea would be to have it available05:10
mdzas long as pitti is happy supporting two versions05:11
sabdflit requires some manual jiggery to move data from 7.4.6 to 8.005:11
mdzsounds like postgresql05:11
sabdfldepending on how much progress pitti can make on the packages05:11
pittiif at all, this is something for universe only05:11
mdzoh, if it's for universe, then there's nothing to talk about05:11
pittiI'm working at them "after hours" (whatever that means) as fast as I can05:11
sabdfli'm not sure about that!05:11
pittibut it will still take me a while05:11
sabdflwe know upstream is solid05:11
sabdflso the only question is whether we are prepared to support pitti's packages05:12
sabdfli vote that we take that decision closer to release05:12
sabdflmain / universe05:12
pittiagreed05:12
ajmitchthat sounds like the situation with mono - 1.1.x is meant to be better than 1.0.x, but I don't know if someone is working on universe packages or not yet05:12
pittiright now I don't even have something for universe05:12
mdzon the same note, I think that the current SeedFreeze strategy doesn't fit the way that we actually work05:12
mdzand in practice, it's fine to make seed changes much later in the release process05:12
ogramdz: what about other maintainer candidates ? crimsun and tseng already have proven to make good packages, they are both already members...and it would ease my MOTU work if the were allowed to upload05:12
mdzso for hoary+1 (I refuse to acknoweldege the True Name of the Beast), I think we ought to make adjustments to that part of the freeze process05:13
lamontmdz: SeedChill?05:13
sivangmdz: hehe05:13
sabdflTNotB?05:13
mdzogra: if we finish with all tech board business, and still have enough CC representatives, we'll do that05:13
pittisabdfl: I try to get the packages ready as fast as I can; if I have something to show, we can discuss the hoary question again05:13
ogragreat !05:13
thomlamont: seedslush05:14
sabdflpitti: excellent, it would be wonderful05:14
pittisabdfl: if some of your guys can help me with testing/fixing, that'd be great05:15
sabdflpitti: publish the packages05:16
pittiok05:16
mdzok, so there's no decision to be taken on postgresql, right?05:17
pittinot a decision05:17
pittimore a general question about the feeling05:17
pittiwhether we want/like it or not05:17
pittiand how much time I invest into this05:17
pittiright now, it's a free-time project05:17
mdzok05:17
doko8.0 requires all dependent packages to be rebuilt?05:17
mdzKamion: are you available for CC business?05:18
pittidoko: yes, all client programs/libraries/etc.05:18
Kamionmdz: yes05:18
=== elmo [~james@83-216-141-215.jamest298.adsl.metronet.co.uk] has joined #ubuntu-meeting
mdzthanks, elmo05:19
sabdflhey elmo05:19
sabdflcc buziness?05:19
mdzogra: do you have a list of candidates?05:19
ajmitchthe CC agenda has a few listed05:20
ogracurently i would suggest treenaks (who vant be here), crimsun and tseng05:20
mdzzul,ajmitch: ?05:20
zulim here05:20
ograyup05:20
ograsorry zul/ajmitch....missed you05:20
ograoh, and if possible dholbach05:21
Kamionzul: are you Chuck Short?05:21
ajmitchthat's ok 05:21
mdzthe CC agenda also has dholbach05:21
zulKamion: yep05:21
mdzwho doesn't seem to be online at the moment05:21
ogramdz: unfortunately not...probably mvo knows more ?05:21
sabdflajmitch: are you interested in an selinux-enabled-by-default ubuntu derivative project?05:22
ajmitchsabdfl: yes, that's what I'm working on05:22
sabdflok05:22
mdzhe is one of a group of folks in the Ubuntu community who are interested in that project05:22
sabdfldon't see it in the mainline for a few releases, but am interested in a derivative where it can get some banging-on05:22
sabdflcool05:22
sabdflone at a time05:23
mdzajmitch seems to be first on the list05:23
sabdflare we confirming member or uploader (universe)?05:24
elmosorry, what are these candidates for?05:24
mdzMOTU05:24
mdzas far as I  know05:24
elmook05:24
sabdflso can we agree that any two of TB / CC / MOTU is good enough for that?05:24
sabdflMOTU or universe uploader?05:24
Kamionpresumably ajmitch would need access to more than universe eventually, but I think it would be best to stick to universe initially and see how he goes with patches05:24
mdzogra: (this would mean that you and chris together could approve new MOTU uploaders)05:24
ograsabdfl: isnt that identical ?05:25
mdzsabdfl: MOTU == universe uploader, no?05:25
Kamion(due to selinux invariably needing to change stuff in base)05:25
ajmitchKamion: yes, the packages that I'd need to touch for main would have to be reviewed05:25
KamionI see MOTU as the universe team leader05:25
sabdflit's what I thought we had, i'm just confirming, since there has been *cough* some confusion05:25
Kamions05:25
ogramdz: yeah, that would be great (if haggai agrees)05:25
Kamionbut the terms seem to have been conflated since then05:25
sabdflmdz: what kamion said05:25
Kamiondue to, er, the "Master" bit05:25
sabdflMOTU can approve new universe uploaders, as we discussed last time05:26
mdzajmitch: you mention that you were working on the python2.4 transition in universe; who were you working with on that?05:26
sabdflwhich i didn't document05:26
ajmitchmdz: I started rebuilding some packages with ogra 05:26
ogramdz: me...05:26
Keybukwhat would "Slave Of The Universe" be though?  Monk?05:26
mdzI always sort of saw MOTU as the collective, but it's not terribly important05:26
ograme too05:26
sabdflalso, MOTU would make decisions on new packages for universe (subject to elmo vetting)05:26
ajmitchhowever I haven't got very far yet 05:26
=== haggai saw MOTU as the collective too.. it's more positive
elmohaggai and ogra can be MOTMOTU05:27
ogralol05:27
haggaiheh05:27
sabdflwell, that could get hectic since we said two MOTU could approve a new universe uploader, and I wouldn't want the group to be able to extend itself arbitrarily05:27
mdzsounds like an anime character05:27
mdzagreed, that privilege should be limited to the team leadership05:27
sabdfllets stick to the earlier terminology:05:28
sabdfl - MOTU - masters of the universe - team leaders in the universe component05:28
sabdfl  - they make freeze / version / NEW decisions for universe05:28
sabdfl - two of them, for the moment, can approve a new uploader to universe05:28
sabdfluploaders can be unrestricted, or limited to universe05:28
elmohave MOTU got a point of contact yet, or is it just ubuntu-devel@ ?05:28
sabdfli tihnk the restriction is social05:29
mdzelmo: ubuntu-devel / ogra / haggai05:29
sabdflMOTU, IIRC, are haggai and ogra05:29
ograyup05:29
haggaiaye05:29
sabdflok05:29
sabdfli'd be happy with a few more MOTU05:29
=== haggai is on the look out for more
sabdflthey need to be people that the existing MOTU like to work with, to get a good team05:29
mdzthe CC agenda doesn't distinguish between member and maintainer candidates05:29
elmosabdfl: err, unrestricted uploaders are maintainers surely?05:29
sabdflelmo: yes05:30
elmothe restriction isn't social, then, it's technical05:30
haggaiso the term is 'universe uploader' then?05:30
elmoand I thought we finially hashed out procedures for maintainers in the last CC ?05:30
sabdflmako has a doc on the wiki, i'll review, update and move to the main site and call for comments05:30
ograhaggai UNUP ?05:30
sabdflelmo: we did, i just didn't write it up05:30
Kamionogra: no need to over-abbreviate :-)05:30
ograheh...05:31
Kamion(abbreviations require expansion, and therefore documentation ...)05:31
mdzelmo: yes, we did, but sabdfl wasn't available at the time05:31
sabdflelmo: excellent05:31
sabdfloh, did i miss another discussion on it last week? was referring to the *previous* one05:31
sabdflgosh this is shocking05:31
sabdflill review the log of the last cc meeting, and mako's writing, and post a final draft05:32
sabdflANYHOW05:32
sabdflfor now, let's run through the list05:32
sabdflany two people can say aye to a universe uploader (TB / CC / MOTU)05:32
sabdfllet's go05:32
sabdflajmitch?05:33
ajmitchyes?05:33
ajmitchstill awake..05:33
Kamionhang on, don't they need to be members first? => CC majority needed05:33
sabdflwho seconds ajmitch for uploading to universe?05:33
sabdflKamion: didnt we agree to accelerate the process for a while?05:33
=== elmo cries quietly in the corner
=== zul offers elmo a lollipop
Kamionmm, ok, I thought that was just bypassing TB approval not CC approval as well05:34
elmozul: just say no to candy from strangers05:34
=== ogra hands elmo a handerchief
Kamionbut if everybody disagrees with me then I'll go away05:34
zulelmo: heh05:34
makoKamion: i think your position is sensible but that's not the way it was written AIUI05:35
Kamionalright05:35
sabdflok, let's take a decision now, cc only:05:35
sabdfl yes or no05:35
sabdfl should two of TB / MOTU / CC be able to approve a new uploader to universe, for a limited time until we have grown the universe team to a good size?05:36
ograyes (wrt to "limited time")05:37
azeemso you don't need to be a Member first? Or you become a Member automatically?05:37
sabdflmako? kamion? elmo?05:37
makoazeem: that as my question05:37
makosabdfl: can we clarify what happens wrt membership first?05:37
elmoif it only takes two CC to become a member, I'm not sure there's a pressing need?05:38
sabdfl it would imply membership, allowing us to grow quickly for a few weeks / months, rather than dance around over several weeks05:38
elmogiven the impromtu approval stuff we discussed at last CC05:38
Kamionyes, so long as it's clear and actually documented that way05:38
ograsabdfl: ...and discuss the process....05:38
makoso automatic membership also..05:38
sabdflimpromptu approval stuff? i missed that05:38
mdzthat was last week's CC meeting05:38
sabdflsummary?05:38
mdzthe question was whether CC members should be able to approve outside of CC meetings05:39
makooh right, yes05:39
sabdflok05:39
sabdflgood idea05:39
mdzit was decided that they should, as long as it is properly recorded05:39
sabdflok, so that reduces the time lag05:39
mdzand, er, mako volunteered to do the record-keeping05:39
sabdfl-- you could get two MOTU and two CC and you;d be straight in?05:40
elmoas a universe uploader, yeah?05:40
makoright, as a universe uploader05:40
ograyup05:40
sabdflpersonally, for universe uploaders, i'd be happy for any two of haggai, ogra, elmo, Kamion, mdz, sabdfl, mako (and anyone else I missed from that list) to approve membership and universe upload ONLY05:41
sabdfli would expect them only to approve someone they personally know can do a quality job05:41
sabdfli would see it as a short term step to grow quickly and efficiently05:41
mdzogra, haggai and elmo are in the best position to know, in general05:41
makoright, it ends post-hoary.. which is what is published05:41
sabdflbut i'm happy to be overruled here05:41
Kamionthat's fine by me; apologies for derailing the discussion05:42
mdzmako: only published in the wiki so far, right?05:42
sabdflso Kamion is +1, mako, elmo?05:42
makomdz: in the wiki and in the meeting notes05:42
makosabdfl: i thought agreed to this before :)05:42
elmoI'm gonna abstain, I really don't mind.  I think it's unnecessary, but I'm also not strongly opposed to it and I don't want to block it, if others want to do it05:42
mdzmako: let's get that onto the website as soon as it passes sabdfl-o-matic05:42
sabdflmako: me too05:43
sabdflok, i vote for it as well05:43
makomdz: i emailed sabdfl right after the meeting and was waiting for that blessing05:43
sabdflso, until Hoary, you can become a member AND get universe upload given the blessing of ANY TWO of TB / CC / MOTU05:43
mdzsabdfl has sworn a mighty oath to process that email05:43
sabdflphew05:43
sabdflonce again05:44
sabdflajmitch?05:44
mdzogra,haggai: would like to hear from you guys05:44
haggaiI'm afraid I haven't seen anything of ajmitch yet05:44
sabdfli don't know the se-linux-lovin' guy05:44
ograajmitch, it think i would ike to review the latest changes on your packages, and if they are ok, i'd like to approve you directly...05:45
mdzogra said that he had worked with him05:45
ajmitchogra: alright05:46
sabdflajmitch: sounds like you need to work with the MOTU, when they are happy they can approve directly05:46
haggaisounds good05:46
ograhaggai if you want to review additionally ....05:46
ograjust say...05:46
haggaiogra: will do05:46
sabdflbrandon hale?05:46
haggaiogra: just CC me on your mails05:46
mdzbrandon hale == tseng?05:47
ograhaggai: okay... (we made the most stuff on irc)05:47
ogramdz: yup05:47
makomdz: yeah05:47
ajmitchwill I still need CC approval to be a member now?05:47
ogramdz: ...rrrright aways from here05:47
makoajmitch: apparently not :)05:47
ograajmitch: nope05:47
=== tseng [~tseng@thegrebs.com] has joined #ubuntu-meeting
Kamionajmitch: not if haggai and ogra are happy with your work; if you're interested in membership before then we can vote on that separately05:47
ajmitchok :)05:47
sabdflajmitch: you could conceivably get that first, by being active and making a good contribution anywhere05:47
mdzpinged tseng and dholbach on -devel05:48
ogramdz: tseng is here...05:48
mdztseng: both CC and TB are present, so we're doing member/maintainer processing05:48
tsengah, ok.05:48
mdzogra: he is now :-)05:48
=== dholbach [~dholbach@td9091cee.pool.terralink.de] has joined #ubuntu-meeting

mdzdholbach: thanks05:48
mdzdholbach:  both CC and TB are present, so we're doing member/maintainer processing05:48
dholbachalright... thought it was due to feb, 8th05:48
tsengit was.05:49
sivangmdz: yes, tseng05:49
sabdflfor clarity - cc could still approve a member (not uploader) if someone has made a good contribution but not yet cracked uploading05:49
sivangtseng: :)05:49
mdzit was, but we're taking advantage of an opportunity to accelerate the process05:49
sabdflok, any two seconders for universe uploader and membership for tseng?05:49

sivang(as an Ubuntu Mmeber)05:51
sabdflthat's member, and uploader to universe05:51
haggaigreat05:51
sabdflnext, dholbach? any two?05:52
ograyup05:52
ografor the gtkmm love :)05:52
sabdflanybody else?05:52
mdzanyone who becomes a member according to the fast-track process should still go back and sign the CoC, certainly.  is someone keeping track of who needs to do that?05:52
sabdfli think elmo is checking for a signed coc before enabling upload05:53
mdzok05:53
sabdflbut we also need to track it for non-uploading members05:53
dholbachi had a word with debian's *mm maintainer today and i'll work together with him05:53
ogradholbach: could you send haggai some of your packaging work .... (coaster for example)05:53
dholbachogra: of course05:54
mdzdholbach: is there anyone you've worked directly with in the Ubuntu community who could serve as a reference?05:54
sabdfldholbach: looks like you need to work with one of the TB / CC / MOTU guys to get a second vote of confidence05:54
haggaiok, dholbach please send me some work and I'll approve once I've had a look05:54
KamionI'm happy to look over coaster too if sent references05:54
dholbachhaggai: deb-src http://ubuntu.stufenseite.de/Repo ./05:54
Kamionsabdfl: that approval can happen out-of-meeting, right?05:55
haggaiyes it can, lets move on05:55
ograKamion: it requires the fixed gtkmm packages (sid or the ones dholbach built)05:55
dholbachmdz: i worked a bit on the wiki and advertised it on my universities unix group :-)05:55
sabdflKamion: yes05:55
mdzsounds like ogra and haggai can work with dholbach further05:56
ograyup05:56
dholbachogra, kamion: i'm coordinating with the new version required with btb@debian.org05:56

mdzzul: do you have experience with Debian packaging?05:58
mdzer, Ubuntu packaging ;-)05:58
zulmdz: i created one or two for open-xchange and some personal packages05:59
elmomdz.BrandingUpdate()05:59
sabdflzul: looks like you need to get a few packages reviewed by one of the TB / CC / MOTU guys05:59
zulsabdfl: sure no problems05:59
mdzcan we approve zul as a member at least?05:59
=== silbs [~sbsm0084@155.Red-80-36-82.pooles.rima-tde.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting

sabdflok06:00
zulthanks06:00
sabdflany other business?06:01
Jonathan_Ccheers all, thanks for all the good work you put into ubuntu06:01
mdzin fact we should probably have done the same with the others who were passed to MOTU for processing06:01
sabdflsorry for all of the confusion regarding processes06:01
Kamionhe looks fine to me as universe uploader on the basis of bugzilla work, but since mdz already mentioned that I'd really rather have a packaging-based ack06:01
ograsabdfl crimsun, while we're at it ?06:01
sabdflill review mako's email and post a final draft, and email for comments06:01
elmodid we do treenaks?06:01
elmoor does he need to be here?06:01
=== dholbach was a bit overwhelmed, but is VERY happy about it :-)
ograhe cant :(06:01
sabdfldoesn't need to e here if he has seconds06:01
ograi vote for him06:01
ograhe has already done debian work....06:02
sabdflany votes for crimsun?06:02
zuldholbach: yay!06:02
ograhaggai ?06:02
mdzI thought we were considering Treenaks06:02
=== dholbach give zul a high five.
zulwohoo...lunch time06:02
haggaire crimsun, I had a couple of queries but I think he'll be ok for universe06:02
ograabsolutely...06:02
sabdflhaggai: would prefer a full-confidence vote, or abstention06:03
sabdfltake the time to be sure06:03
sabdflogra's sure :-)06:03
haggaiok I'd better abstain then until the next mail exchange is done06:03
makosabdfl: sounds good.. look over the notes for the meeting too if you haven't.. we spent about an hour going over details as a group.. most of things there are there for a reason.. so for substantial changes, it's maybe worthing pinging one/many of us :)06:03
sabdflmako: i will06:03
mdzis there another second for Treenaks?06:03
ogranow we lost trenaks again ?06:04
ajmitchhaggai: do you want me to email you urls for some of my packages?06:04
KamionTreenaks++06:04
ograyay06:04
haggaiajmitch: yes please do06:04
mdzthat's two (ogra and Kamion) for Treenaks/universe06:04
sabdflwho was the first for Treenaks?06:04
sabdfli thought ogra was for crimsun06:04
KeybukI'll certainly second Treenaks06:04
makosabdfl: there are a couple little additions we agreed to at the meeting i wrote up in the summary but didn't do yet.. if you're not going to work on it right now, i can do a few of those06:04
sabdflok, welcome in absentia, Treenaks06:04
ograsabdfl: for the record: Treenaks ++06:04
sabdflmako: go for it, i need to drive home, will check it out then06:05
sabdflok, crimsun?06:05
makosabdfl: ok cool06:05
sabdflcrimsun: what areas have you worked on, and what packaging experience can you point us at?06:06
Kamion /whois crimsun --real-name06:06
sabdflany of the TB / CC / MOTU guys worked with you or reviewed pacakges?06:06
ogracrimsun is audio/alsa specialist and i'd like to have him aboard for this ...06:06
haggaiI have reviewed 1 package so far06:06
sabdflaudio  / alsa is definitely a place we need expertise06:06
mdzcrimsun has been active in Bugzilla; I can certainly recommend him for membership06:06
sabdflbut it's also main... and low level06:07
mdzI have no information about packaging06:07
=== fabbione still thumbs up for crimsun
ograsabdfl: we are still talking about universe, or not ?06:07
KamionI thought I remembered approving crimsun for membership. Do we have a list of who's been approved for what somewhere, please?06:07
sabdflok, he's afk and has no seconds for uploading06:07
mdzKamion: there's a member list in the wiki06:07
ograKamion: crimsun was approved as member already06:08
sivangKamion: wiki/UbuntuMembers06:08
sabdflok, i think we are done06:08
sabdflany other business?06:08
Keybukone thing I'd like to bring up, while TB, elmo and sabdfl are here: @ubuntu.com e-mail addresses for MOTU/uploaders etc.  do we want to do that?06:08
sabdflYES!06:08
Kamionmdz: crimsun was approved according to http://people.ubuntu.com/~fabbione/irclogs/ubuntu-meeting-2005-01-25.html, but is not in that list; perhaps he hasn't yet signed CoC?06:08
mdzabsolutely06:08
KamionKeybuk: hell yeah06:09
Keybukand what about members?06:09
KamionI thought that was the whole point06:09
mdzyes06:09
sabdflyes on members too06:09
Keybukare we doing that, and I just missed it?  or hasn't it been put in place yet?06:09
ogranot yet 06:09
mdzelmo: any admin issues with doing so?06:09
sabdflthe mail system works, not sure if we have a process to create the accounts06:09
sivangyay! u.c address for the changlogs :)06:10
elmothe userdir-ldap system isn't as well hooked up as I'd like but, basically n06:10
haggaiwhat about people.u.c/~user ?  That would be useful06:10
elmoo06:10
sabdfli've reservations about shell accounts06:10
sabdflelmo?06:11
haggaieven for maintainers?06:11
elmome too, fairly strong ones06:11
mdza member-writable WebDAV would be nice06:11
mdzas an alternative to shells06:11
sabdflthat sounds doable06:11
Keybukyeah, dav would be cool; could thom wave some apache2 love for it easily?06:11
mdzthat does require authentication somehow, though06:11
sabdflwhat about rw sftp? elmo is that secure?06:11
mdzcurrently, members have no requirement to authenticate themselves06:12
sabdflin the cracking sense, not the crypto sense06:12
mdzthey don't even need to have a key06:12
smurfixsabdfl: should be if you set the shell to sftpd06:12
Kamionsftp is a subsystem, not a daemon06:12
elmoKamion: command limiting to sftp works tho right?06:12
Kamionelmo: I'm not sure if that's possible06:13
elmooh, it's possible, we do internally, I don't know how effective it is tho06:13
sabdfli'm happy if elmo can find a way that satisfies him w.r.t. local security06:13
Kamionthere's sftp-server which implements that, but it's not intended to be invoked directly (see its changelog)06:13
smurfixKamion: that's hat I meant. :-/06:13
mdzdoesn't sftp support chroot?06:13
Kamioner, man page06:13
smurfixwhat06:13
sabdflalso, on a suitable machine06:13
Kamionmdz: if openssh upstream accepted the chroot patch, I'd be happy with it; right now I'm not06:13
sabdflKeybuk: thanks for bringing it up, v good point, glad to get the u.com emails rocking06:14
sabdflelmo, your call as to whether / how to offer ~user06:14
sabdflany other business?06:14
KeybukI noticed a lack of it in catching up on changes, and thought "hey up, we should do that!"06:14
elmosabdfl: is this forwarding only or imaps too?06:14
mdzforwarding only, I hope06:14
sabdflelmo: your call, pref fwding only06:14
