makoavdyk: yes! :)11:15
makosorry.. last time11:15
makoavdyk: alright, you're first up11:15
avdykyep... but I was not here :(11:15
makocool.. well i thin kthe problem last time was that we didn't think the page really spoke for itself11:16
ogramako, and Q-Funk wanted to talk to you about his wiki page... did he ?11:16
mdzmako: MatthewWeaver was already approved last time, was he not?11:16
makoogra: definitely11:16
Kamiondidn't we ok avdyk last time round?11:16
jbaileyKamion: No, you wanted people who weren't present to come to the CC meetin.g11:16
makono, we didn't11:16
makoat least it's not in my notes11:17
makoavdyk: want to give us the summaery of your work in ubuntu so far?11:17
makoFor The Record :)11:17
avdykI didn't do nothing at the moment, I was contacted to make some java synchronisation between debian and ubuntu if I recall11:17
Kamionjbailey: ah yes, although it wasn't me who said that in Arnaud's case11:17
Kamion(http://people.ubuntu.com/~fabbione/irclogs/ubuntu-meeting-2005-03-08.html)11:18
makoavdyk: ok.. the policy here is usually to hold off on membership until we've seen substantial contributions11:19
avdykmako: I understand that11:19
makoavdyk: so the java sync stuff sounds killer.. are you working with the motu folks on that?11:20
makoavdyk: when you think you've got a bit of stuff. try to get a few exisiting members to vouche for you and point to your stuff and it should be uncontroversial :)11:20
avdykmako: I'm just trying to have a working kaffe in debian on all arches at the moment :-D11:20
makoavdyk: awesome :)11:21
avdykI also work a lot moving java packages to main (in debian)11:21
mdzavdyk: jbailey and wasabi are both working on java in Ubuntu11:21
Kamionjbailey: have you been working with avdyk?11:21
Kamionor intending to, anyway11:21
jbaileyKamion: YEs.  Avdyk is the Debian maintainer of most of the Java packages.11:22
jbaileyKamion: He, Wasabi, man-di and I work in #ubuntu-java on the packages.11:22
=== \sh [~sh@server3.servereyes.de] has joined #ubuntu-meeting
jbaileyThe idea is to keep sync as much as possible.11:22
makoavdyk: it sounds like once you get a little more active directly in the ubuntu community, this will be pretty easy :)11:23
ograsounds like a reasonable contribution11:23
avdykI don't have a lot of time at the moment so I concentrate on kaffe, moving java packages to main and the next step will be to package tomcat511:23
jbaileyOften the work is discussion around the best way to do things to make sure the packages stay in sync.11:23
avdykmako: no problem11:23
makoalright then.. 11:23
avdykI want you to know that I don't wanna have one more email address! ;-)11:24
avdykI'm fine with submitting patches first, then we can discuss of a collaboration 11:24
=== mako sets up an avdyk@atdot.cc alias for avdyk
makoavdyk: sounds great11:24
avdyk;-)11:24
makoavdyk: you think i'm joking? :)11:24
makoMartinEricRacine ?11:25
ogramako, Q-Funk's page seems not to have changed11:25
avdykmako: don't know this FQDN ;-)11:25
makoyes.. :)11:25
ogramako, iirc you wanted it a bit more detailed11:25
makowe talked a bit but i guess he didn't get around to making the changes11:25
makoogra: yes11:25
ograhe didnt do any MOTU work yet either...despite asking questions...11:26
makosince it doesn't appear to have changed and since he's not here. i'm hesistant to defer another week11:26
makoalight11:26

makonot hesitant, that's what i want to do11:26
=== mako nods
makoalright.. hopefully he can talk to me more in the next few weeks11:26
ogramako, i pointed him to you several times11:27
Kamionany contact with Hiweed since last meeting?11:27

makono.. IIRC i sent him a mail11:27
makohaven't heard back11:27
elmomako: you have this cute wetware bug where you keep saying the exact opposite of what you mean ;)11:27
ograheh11:27
makoelmo: man.. i know.. luckily it's mostly limited to irc11:28
=== ogra has no idea who HiweedLeng might be
makoalright then.. lets move on then11:28
tsengi seem to recall a hiweed working on a chinese dirivative11:28
tsengbut he doesnt work inside ubuntu yet, afaik11:29
KamionMatthew Weaver was already approved as a member last week; until he shows up and wants MOTU, I move that we drop him from the agenda11:29

Phythonogra: Oh, I found someone with gstreamer0.8-faad packages, I need to look at those now11:40
Phythonmako: Sounds like a plan11:40
ogragreat11:40
makokiller11:40
tsengyay11:40
makomoving on then...11:40
makoMichaelKoch11:40
man-dimako: thats me11:40
makoman-di: right11:40
makojava stuff, eh? :)11:40
jbaileymako: Same case as avdyk - We all do Java stuff. =)11:41
mdzman-di: you work on kaffe upstream, right?11:41
man-dimako: same case as avdyk I asssume11:41
Kamionah, another Java cabal member :)11:41
mdzjava in breezy is going to rock ;-)11:41
Phythonjbailey: Did you push everyone into this meeting?11:41
man-dimdz: I help them with the classlib, orginally I work on GNU classpath upstream11:41
man-dimdz: and I'm part of GCJ team11:41
jbaileyPhython: I had apparently misunderstood that the work that avdyk and man-di were doing in helping get the java bits together so far would be enough.  My bad.11:42
man-dicurrently I try top package newer Eclispe11:42
Kamionjbailey: I'm sure it could be if it were clear :-)11:42
man-didamn typos11:42
=== mako nods to Kamion
man-dicurrently I try to package newer Eclipse11:42
Kamionjbailey: it's just not particularly clearly mentioned anywhere, given that the CC members are not people who know about Java11:42
Kamionwalk us through it slowly :)11:43
mdzjbailey: I think you're the only one here who has worked with them, so we are dependent on you to tell us what they are up to and how they are doing11:43
=== mako works hard to cultivate his ignorance in java
avdykman-di: you  also move some java packages from contrib to main11:43
jbaileyKamion: Right.  I'm going to work out getting the channel logged, so that we I can at least point to things concretely.11:43
man-diwe want to use joined forces for Java with Ubuntu and Debian11:43
makoman-di: awesome :)11:43
avdykfree java!11:43
jbaileyBasically avdyk and man-di are the main movers behind free Java in Debian.  They're working with us so that we can reasonably keep sync between the two distros.11:44
Kamionjbailey: I'm happy to take your word for it, but just above avdyk himself said he hadn't done much :)11:44
man-dimako: currently Fedora leads in free Java (in my eyes)11:44
man-diUbuntu and Debian together can perhaps change this11:44
jbaileyKamion: Right, that's why I find myself wishing for channel logs. =)11:44
=== tritium [~rimbert@12-202-90-180.client.insightBB.com] has joined #ubuntu-meeting
man-diwe try to create plans and implements to make all work smooth together11:44
mdzjbailey: what's involved on the Ubuntu side of keeping in sync?11:44
jbaileymdz: Right now we have a focussed goal on the Ubuntu side of using ecj and gij.  After that we're moving pieces from multiverse into universe similar to the Debian transition of the JAva bits to main.11:45
makowow.. sounds great11:45
jbaileyalot of the Debian effort gets held up because of the NEW queue processing time.11:45
makoi'm very excited about free java11:45
man-dimako: thx11:46
jbaileySo as we're getting ahead of Debian in a couple areas, we're working on making sure that most of what we do can be fed into Debian sanely to make sync'ing easier.11:46
makogreat11:46
man-dimako: http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/java-trap.html11:46
mdzjbailey: I guess what I'm asking is, what are/will the candidates be doing on the Ubuntu side of things to help with that (as opposed to the Debian side)11:47
=== jinty [~jinty@haydn.debian.org] has joined #ubuntu-meeting
makomdz: it sounds like all of the work will be done for ubuntu first11:48
makomdz: or much of at least11:48
ogramako, but hangs in debians NEW queue ?11:48
man-dimdz: the Ubuntu has a little bit different goals as they are set now, we can help synchronizing packages and targeting the Ubuntu goals11:48
man-dimdz: e.g. Ubuntu targets on GCJ11:48
jbaileymdz: Right now, it's been alot of guidance and discussion around the apckaging and resolving problems.  Much of the work may wind up in Ubuntu first because of the faster upload cycle.  Ongoing, if it works out, there will be the group of us actively caring about Ubuntu in Java, although they may primarily care about Debian.11:48
man-dimdz: DEbian cant11:48
makoman-di: why not?11:49
mako(we should probably try to cut this a little short, as it's probably OT for a CC meeting)11:49
mdzare we consisdering universe maintainer status, or only membership?11:49
=== tseng was about to ask that
tseng:P11:49
mdzthat should probably be indicated clearly on the agenda in the future11:49
KamionI think it's still worthwhile11:49
ogramembershop11:49
jbaileymembership. 11:49
man-dimako: e.g. because the needed version is not in Debian yet and Debian wants diversity, Ubuntu wants a clean solution for the user11:49
ograship even11:49
jbaileyIf it makes sense for them to do full MOTU, that's something we can work out later.11:50
mdzoh, ok11:50
azeemDebian NEW is being processed again, so I don't think that's a big issue11:50
makojbailey: yeah, we can bring that up with the motu team and any of the folks on the TB/CC11:50
jbaileymako: Right.11:50
Kamionok, that's a good deal more than we'd heard previously; I'm willing to amend the earlier "wait and see" on avdyk if others agree11:50
=== mako nods
jbaileyKamion: Sorry about that.  I need to figure out the best way to make sure these are presented well.11:51
makoyeah.. i think we should handle man-di and avdyk similarly here11:51
mdzif membership is the target, then jbailey's testimonial that they are actively contributing counts for a great deal11:51
makojbailey: the best way is to make sure the wiki page has a claer list of the thing that the person has done11:51
makoalright then11:51
makoelmo: any objections to deciding on avdyk and man-di based on jbailey's testimony?11:51
elmonope11:52
makocool11:52
makoi'm happy with both on jbailey's word and the java stuff that has been done11:52
makobut i'd like to see more fleshed out wiki pages in the future :)11:52
ograand a irc nick on the page would be awesome ;)11:53
man-diogra: sorry11:53
ografor every wiki page11:53
mdza first-hand testimonial is more useful than a verbose wiki page, in my opinion11:53
Kamionok then, avdyk and man-di both approved as member, that's the last of the new members11:53
ograman-di, not only yours, i'm stumbling across that very often11:53
Kamionmdz: right, but having the latter means they're less likely to be deferred before we get round to hearing the testimonial :-)11:54
ograman-di, its just not specified anywhere ;)11:54
tsengi think we should make sivangreen the official "template"11:54
makoogra: seriously11:54
tsengfor motu hopefuls11:54
makotseng: totally, i'll do it11:55
tsengmako: cool, thanks!11:55
ogratseng, hey thats actually a nice name11:55
ogratseng, better then wannabes11:55
tsengyeah.11:55
Kamionok. "Ubuntu website remake" is a leftover from last meeting, isn't it?11:55
ogralets keep it 11:55
makoKamion: um.. it's been added and removed :)11:55
makopeople *are* still brining it u11:56
makoup11:56
makobut yes11:56
Kamionwell, it's still an open issue, but it's being acted on isn't it?11:56
makobut yes11:56
mdzHenrik is tracking that project11:56
Kamionso nothing for the CC to do11:56
mdzit's high priority11:56
=== mako nods
makomdz: absolutely11:56
KamionVika is working on it too11:56
makoalright..11:56
makoany kubunut news/items?11:57
makokubuntu11:57
mdzRiddell: wasn't the preview announcement our "big announcement to the world"?11:57
makoRiddell: i think so :)11:57
Kamionthat also looks like a leftover from last time11:57
mdzwebsite seems more or less sorted, except for the registrar delay on kubuntu.org11:57
makomdz: that was my comment11:57
Kamionas is LoCoTeam process11:57
makois there anything the CC can do for kubuntu?11:57
elmomdz: that's fixed11:57
amunot now, we're working on the last packages ... 11:57
makoamu: sounds good11:58
mdzoh, so it is11:58
mdzelmo: excellent11:58
makoyeah.. loco team stuff11:58
makook.. so there was something of a mess with the italian team11:58
mdzindeed11:58
makoover the last 3 weeks probably11:58
smurfixactually it brew under the hood for longer11:58
makobasically, some people had some issues with leadership and communication and decisioning making within the team11:58
mdzabelli has been on #u-d nearly every day recently looking for sabdfl11:58
=== mdke pops head up
makoi can try to make it short11:59
mdzhe doesn't seem to be here for the meeting, though?11:59
makono.. he's largely disengaged11:59
makoso someone sent mail to info a few months ago complaining some issues with the loco team and the way it was working11:59
mdkehe is not gonna get back involved i don't think11:59
KamionI'd be interested in hearing from other Italian community folks; abelli has been by far the loudest, but loudest isn't always right :)11:59
makobut asked that nothing be done about it at the time11:59
makothings kind of simmered i supposed12:00
mdkei get on pretty well with him and have heard most of his complaints12:00
Kamionmdke: could you run us briefly through them? another angle would be good12:00
mdkehmm12:00
mdkehe feels like he was cut out of the group by some people who conspired behind the scenes and went to mako12:01
mdkeseveral other peopl left the team with him12:01
makoand he's upset at me for not telling me about the fact that people were upset with him12:01
mdkemako, yes although mainly with them12:01
=== mako nods
makoandrea and i still exchange email almost daily12:01
Kamionfrom what I remember, the people who came to mako said that they had tried to talk to abelli and got nowhere?12:01
smurfixUnfortunately he then didn't want to meet on IRC with me+mako recently, and dropped his name from the team list12:02
makoKamion: well, originally, they jsut said "some people are having problems with the team. don't say anything. we're just going to keep working"12:02
makothat was 3-4 months ago12:02
makomore recently, things came more to the surface12:02
Kamionalso, um; were there substantive issues with things that were/weren't being done, or was it purely a "who's in charge" thing?12:03
makoKamion: depends on who you ask12:03
Kamionor a who's telling whom what to do thing12:03
mdkeKamion, power struggle if i've understood it correctly12:03
makobasically, everybody involved said that other folks were not really doing any work and only wanted power12:03
smurfixKamion: puls leadership style issues, plus ...12:03
makowhich put smurfix and i in a pretty strange position12:03
smurfixas I said, we tried to get the two sides to talk in the same room, but ...12:04
makoa whole number of people said "this other person is trying to rule the group in a bad way and they're not doing any real work"12:04
