raveJohnny :)06:11
sabdflok, let's start there06:12
ravewell yes, thats true06:12
sabdflrave: in considering you for membership we need some idea of the contribution you have made and your plans for Ubuntu06:12
sabdflthats not clear from your page06:12
mdkeis it too late to add names to the list?06:12
makoyeah, it doesn't mean you haven't been a helpful member of the community.. it just means we can't see it :)06:12
sabdflwould you update your page and come back in two weeks?06:12
=== kopaaa [~Miranda@194.152.181.219] has joined #ubuntu-meeting
ravehmm for sure, i just created the page as a quick impression06:13
ravewith some links to my code and work06:13
makorave: yeah, we need a little more before we grant membership06:13
sabdflrave: membership covers *any* field of contribution, but it needs to be a fairly substantial chunk of work done and planned06:13
makorave: in particular, your code and work on ubuntu06:13
Kamionmight want to stick around and see what other folks who get approved have provided, as a guideline?06:13
sabdflnot just code though - support, bugs, docs, artwork06:13
ravewell im coding 12 hours aday06:13
sabdflok, so focus there :-)06:13
sabdfllet's go on. siretart?06:13
thegreedyturtleas someone who's interested in becoming a memeber, what level of contributing do you look for in members?06:14
sabdflReinhardTartler06:14
siretartsabdfl: sure. im here :)06:14
rave:), i help ppl out in #ubuntu-nl (i try)06:14
opirave, just write a good resume, and I'm sure CC will aprove you :-)06:14
makosabdfl: lets come back to chris schieb after.. he was at the last meeting06:14
ograsabdfl, siretart did a good bunch of motu work already06:14
dholbachsiretart:  did ROCKing work in the MOTU transitions :-)06:14
sabdflthegreedyturtle: "any substantial contribution and a manifesto describing vision for ubuntu going forward"06:14
ravetankz opi 06:14
thegreedyturtlethanks06:14
Kamionthegreedyturtle: the bar for membership isn't all that high compared to maintainership - basically a gut feeling that somebody's being useful in the specific context of Ubuntu (in addition to e.g. code written elsewhere)06:15
makosabdfl: we should go through the full list this time because there are people that are not here this time that did come to a CC meeting at a different time06:15
siretartI intend to get my touched packages in hoary in shape for breezy, plus the packages I maintain in debian (2 at this time). 06:15

truluxHi, I'm Lorenzo Hernndez Garca-Hierro and I'm here as of my willing to get the membership status within the UBuntu Linux project. My wishes to the project are to give the best of myself in those fields which I can contribute and help more, to coordinate and organize UBuntu Hardened activies and to help in anything else needed.07:06
sabdfltrulux: have you taken any concrete steps with Ubuntu hardened?07:07
sabdfland do you see your main contribution as being in the code area, or elsewhere?07:07
Kamiondid the recent ubuntu-hardened "discussion" settle down in the end? I was too busy at the time of the IRC meeting to watch07:07
truluxsabdfl: right, those are specified in some wiki pages and currently I'm finishing a definitive specification to be discussed well07:07
pittitrulux: would you be willing to implement the ProactiveSecurityRoadmap?07:08
truluxKamion: right, everything is clear now and things were well discussed and even decided07:08
sabdflvery cool07:08
pittitrulux: there are some easy targets, would be cool if we could settle some of them soon; then you have some real uploads to show off07:08
truluxpitti: of course, yes. I must say that part of the existing one is now part of the Ubuntu Hardened spec as a whole07:08
makotrulux: great.. you've been talking to mdz and to ajmitch_?07:08
Kamiontrulux: ok, that's good to hear; hope we won't have that situation again :)07:08
mdzI have not been very available to talk recently07:09
truluxmako: mdz was present at the meeting and ajmitch knows well on the SELinux related work within Ubuntu Hardened07:09
truluxmdz: right, no problems07:09
mdztrulux has prepared some fairly detailed plans for what we need to do in order to implement SELinux within Ubuntu07:09
makotrulux: right, but kamion and i were both present at the meeting but that really only means we were idling in the channel07:09
sabdfltrulux: do you have a page on the wiki?07:09
truluxfor those interested in the meeting that toke place at #ubuntu-hardened, the log is available at http://pearls.tuxedo-es.org/ubuntu/rfc-1.txt07:10
truluxsabdfl: yes07:10
makotrulux: cool07:10
truluxsabdfl: lemme get the direct link...07:10
Kamionmako: point of information, I wasn't, although trulux did invite me07:10
mdztrulux: http://www.ubuntu.com/wiki/SELinux is primarily your work (and ajmitch's), yes?07:10
makoKamion: ok.. i was, but i was just idling in the channel :)07:10
truluxmdz: yes, I've noted where ajmitch_ did some work like in the coreutils package07:10
mdztrulux: though, you seem to have marked things 'Done' which are not yet complete07:11
truluxhttp://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/LorenzoHernandezGarciaHierro07:12
truluxmdz: no, those Done things are done from our side, that means, patches and packages work and have bene tested07:12
truluxmdz: not necessary mean they're already implemented07:12
sabdfltrulux: looks like very interesting work!07:13
truluxsabdfl: many thanks, I just try to help07:13
makohas anyone worked with trulux and wants to offer a testimonial07:13
sabdflwe won't move SELinux to Ubuntu/main until it's really ready for end-user primetime, but it's fantastic to have community interest and experimentation on that front07:13
pittito be honest, I'd like to defer his application for a few weeks until trulux actually uploaded some packages07:14
pittibut he is very eager and competent, would be cool to have him on board eventually07:14
truluxsabdfl: well, as it's explained in the new spec and the meeting log, packages can be ready for selinux support with no impact. if SELinux is not enabled at boot time, they will just work ignoring the selinux-related code07:14
sabdflok, seems reasonable07:14
sabdflbut we'll have some cool support for derivatives, and we can turn it ALL on there and see how it works out07:15
sabdflthen move it into main when it's tested07:15

coastGNUsabdfl: On the long run inviting forum guys to become members might be no good idea. CC will grow so will the forums what on the long run will make it hard to coordinate such a big group.07:33

mdkesabdfl, to be honest my approach so far has been to wait for a problem which presents itself, and trying to help07:42

makobob2 and daniels and some community members and i sat down to work through some stuff at udu07:47
ograSimira, pretty broken recently through trolls....07:48
makoand we followed up on the last resolution to suggest some new operators for the #ubuntu channel07:48
makoeveryone should take a look at that document...07:48
LathiatEverytime i goto #ubuntu i get sucked in helping for like 2 or 3 hours because so many people give out wrong information :\07:48
tritiumI'm helping out with ops when I can, but if I get disconnected, I have to wait for somebody to give me ops again07:48
\shwell07:48
makoand we should appoint some new operators now.. some have already been appointed07:48
\shif I can say something to this very common problem? 07:48
makoso, here is the list of people that were nominated:07:48
Kamiontritium: can be sorted out with chanserv07:48
\shthis happens for years07:48
tritiumKamion, yes (ChanServer kicked me out Sunday night, for example)07:49
makocrimsun, tritium, ajmitch_, carlk, amaranth, dholbach, ogra07:49
Kamiontritium: I mean if you're on the access list ...07:49
makoalso, all cc members should be listed as operators07:49
SimiraI didn't realize there were so much trolls on #ubuntu07:49
\shand the only thing you can do...is to split up the chan into several, with a max of users for one channel...the rest does chanserv and ops for chanserv07:49
tritiumKamion, right07:49
sabdflwhos carlk?07:49
makoso that if nobody else is around, they can be called in07:49
Lathiat\sh: that sucks because you get divison of knowledge07:49
makosabdfl: someone who is very helpful and active on #ubuntu07:50
sabdflok07:50
ograsabdfl, he posts a lot in ubuntu-users07:50
KamionCarl Karsten, I'm guessing07:50
mdkeSimira, its full of em :/07:50
Simiramako: does that go for all of the mentioned?07:50
makoSimira: yes07:50
sabdfli'm happy to appoint community ops07:50
\shLathiat: well, I'm using irc for more then 10 years now...and trolls and fights you will have in any situation07:50
sabdflthink we've seen good stuff from all of them, be great if they are willing to take on the ops challenge too07:51
Lathiat\sh: yes, but if people who are around who can deal with them, it helps07:51
makothis is in addition to the current ops07:51
Seveasindeed, but decent ops can control a lot..07:51
makowe should make sure we always have a few people in the channel with ops07:51
LathiatWe should try get a good time zone coverage i fpossible07:51
\shLathiat: it's not a faulty protocol, the people have bugs (sometimes) 07:51
sabdfldo we refer people to the CoC in the topic?07:51
makosabdfl: we have in the past.. not sure if it is done right now07:51
mdkegood idea07:51
\shLathiat: punishment increases the trolling mode 07:51
dholbachi'd be happy, if somebody else would take over my place as a #ubuntu op07:51
makodholbach: are you not active on the channel?07:51
lamontsabdfl: no comment about CoC in the current topic07:51
tritiumI agree.  Also, maybe clearing up misconceptions about backports and ubuntuguide07:51
dholbachi'm not in there that often07:51
Lathiat\sh: You need the right people to handle the situations07:51
mdketritium, +++++++++07:51
Kamionwe can never totally eliminate trolling on IRC, but we can do a lot better than we're currently doing07:52
LathiatI've used irc alot07:52
Lathiatbeen an irc op etc07:52
makodholbach: ok07:52
Lathiatyou need to try discourage people07:52
dholbachmako: thank you07:52
Simiramako: I'll be happy to do a job there. I'm not much on #ubuntu because I mostly manage on my own, but I can give some support. I'm planning on trying to become an ubuntu-member in couple of weeks or so. Though I think the ones you have mentioned are nice people, and active.07:52
Lathiatand appropriate kickbanning etc as needed07:52
Lathiatbut if you can shut them up without that, it helps, otherwise you get ban avoidance, etc07:52
makoSimira: the most important thing is now finding people who are active on the channel07:52
ograSimira, grab dholbachs place07:52
\shLathiat: the easiest way to handle this situation is to have an irc admin who can "punish" those guys the hardway...serverbans etc.07:52
makoin most cases, just having someone with ops say "hey, mind the CC is enough"07:52
makosorry07:52
=== Seveas likes to volunteer: I am active (and helping) as much as i can there
makothe CoC07:52
Lathiat\sh: that doesnt really help any more than a kickban07:52
makoright, if you are interested in volunteer, please talk to me afterward07:53
makowe can vet everyone right now07:53
Simiramako: I can choose to be. As I'm on a sick leave on 80%, I'm mostly at home in front of the computer anyway.07:53
makosorry.. can't07:53
Lathiatmako: what are the 'requirements'07:53
=== sabdfl just found out he couldn't change the topic on #ubuntu
makowe can't have the "i should be ops" discussion right now07:53
ogramako, i'm not that active anymore, i'm more -devel -motu centric recently, but being around to clearify a situation should be enough, no ?07:53
Lathiatlike, i am not an ubuntu member, but i spend alot of time on irc and helping people around the place and would be willing to help take care...07:53
makolets talk afterwards if you want to be ops07:53
makofor the moment, lets please just handle the CURRENT list of proposals07:53

Lathiathaha08:49
crimsun(reading chanserv help)08:51
ggrossi've got a question : Is there an HowTo to learn how to contribute to Ubuntu ? I'm a pretty new linux user (Ubuntu addict) and want to help as i can 08:51
crimsunI presume the consensus is that all CC members in addition to those Ubuntu devs are ops?08:51
Lathiatggross: Are you a native english speaker?08:51
dholbachggross: http://ubuntu.com/community/participate is a good start08:52
\shsh*t08:52
ggrossLathiat: no sorry, but i understood it quite well08:52
makoggross: yes, the participate page is teh best we ahve08:52
makoi think it's quite good.. certainly quite better than it used to be08:52
Lathiatggross: Was just going to mention, if not, translation teams might be of interest08:52
Simiraand #ubuntu-love08:53
makosure08:53
dholbachdon't forget the MOTU team :-)08:53
Lathiatdholbach: :)08:53
ggrossMOTU isn't for boss-users ?08:53
Lathiatggross: boss-users?08:53
tritiumKamion, what were some of your concerns regarding #ubuntu?08:53
ograboss ?08:53
dholbachboss-users?08:53
ggrossi mean : great linux masters ?08:53
Amaranthhehe no08:54
Simiramako: I must admit, I still don't feel like I'm contributing enough, even I'm trying to runa LoCo and a translation team...08:54
ograggross, its lfor everyone who ants to help with packages08:54
ggrossok :D08:54
Simiraogra: don't you need to know a bit of programming and packaging for that?08:54
Kamiontritium: erm, fairly basic, just that it's too noisy and unhelpful to newcomers who aren't very used to IRC noise08:54
Kamiontritium: and general trolling etc.08:55
dholbachSimira: you can learn it all, if you want to08:55
ograSimira, there is nothing you cant learn ;)08:55
tritiumKamion, I agree.08:55
Kamiontritium: nothing unusual for IRC, just needs to be brought under control more08:55
AmaranthKamion: You could do what #python did.08:55
dholbachmy proposal was to have #ubuntu-beginners as well :-)08:55
ograargh08:55
Simiradholbach, ogra : actually, right now, there is. That's why I'm on a sick leave from my studies for another 6 months :p08:55
LathiatAmaranth: i disagree with what #pyton did08:55
Lathiatit splits up knowledge08:55
Lathiatand makes it harder to look after08:55
AmaranthLathiat: No other way to handle the problem.08:55
Lathiattho only possible reason i see for that is when there are too many people talking the channel goes by too fast to be usefull. i don't know if that was an issue for #python or not08:56
ograSimira, there is nothing you cant learn .... if you like it enough you will eventually :P08:56
makotritium: yeah, i don't think the problem is that #ubuntu is horrible.. just that we've gottena lot of complaints that it's out of control and are there aren't a lot of people who taking a sort of leadership role in bringing it back under control08:56
AmaranthLathiat: It moved pretty quick at times.08:56
makotritium: and that the lack of operators was one major factor in that08:56
makoso, we'll make more operators08:56
tritiummako, right08:57
ggross+1 for operators too08:57
makoif we get to a place where there are active and responsible ops in the channel all of the time, and we still need to make changes, we can cross that bridge then08:57
=== Amaranth is on IRC _way_ too long everyday
crimsunyeah, currently we can't cover the entire day08:57
makothe role of an op should be to make sure the CoC is respected, remind peopl when it's not08:57
makocrimsun: then we need more ops. that's fine08:58
makofeel free to suggest people to me08:58
Amaranthi'd like to volunteer, but i think you have some bureaucratic things i'd have to go through first08:58
makoAmaranth: not really08:58
Amaranthi hope i spelled that right08:58
crimsunAmaranth: I think you're on the recommended list, no?08:58
Amaranthi am? where is that list?08:58
crimsun(during the meeting)08:58
Amaranthoh, i missed the meeting08:58
Amaranthdid my math wrong08:58
makoAmaranth: wait dude.. yeah. we already approved you as an op :)08:58
makoAmaranth: if you want it, it's yours08:59
Amaranthcool08:59
makonot really buerocratic08:59
crimsunI'll go ahead and op those in that list if that's ok, mako 08:59
makosuggest people you think would be good and the cc will use any previous experience they ahve and talk to some other irc regulars who we trust08:59
makocrimsun: yeah. we need to add them to the chanserv too08:59
ograAmaranth, getting a gpg key ....08:59
crimsunmako: ok08:59
Amaranthogra: I think I have one. That's the same thing used to sign packages, right?09:00
ograAmaranth, and signing a document with it.... 09:00
makotritium: so what was your question?09:00
makotritium: anything in particular?09:00
tritiumperhaps we should discuss the role of the ops a little.  You mention the CoC.  I assume we're also there to help with questions (as is reasonable)09:00
ograAmaranth, yep... it should be signed ....09:00
Amarantherr, what?09:00
tritiummako, from before during the CC?09:00
makotritium: ops should be a good example09:00
tritiummy concern earlier was my availability09:01
ograAmaranth, ,,, by anyone from the strong connected set....(thats nearly everyone you find on the pgp servers)09:01
makonot afraid to use the power when they need to, also not using it unnecessarily09:01
crimsunAmaranth: can't op you since you're not in that channel ;)09:01
makoexcercise good judgement, be helpful where you can09:01
makocorrect people when they are wrong09:01
makothat's it09:01
crimsunAmaranth: n/m09:01
ogramako, what if an op abuses his power09:01
tritiumit's easy, as someone mentioned earlier, spending hours just answering question after question09:01
makothen they won't be an op anymore09:02
Lathiattritium: ugh, i get sucked into that far too often.09:02
Lathiatlargely because so many people give out bad info :\09:02
makotake whatever time you have09:02
Amaranthogra: You've lost me. :/09:02
Lathiatand i feel sorry for the poor users, heh.09:02
tritiumYes, backports and ubuntuguide come to mind09:02
makoif you don't have loads of time, that's fine09:02
ograAmaranth, i was talking about the key09:02
makoi'll be an op but i won't be paying attention to the channel very much09:02
makothat's life09:02
ogramako, me too09:02

makowe want people who are there much of the time so they can play an important role there09:03
Amaranthogra: I need someone to sign my key?09:03
makobut you're a volunteer and we understand that09:03
ograAmaranth, to make it valid, yes09:03
AmaranthLathiat: bit by ^W again?09:03
Lathiati think the first goal should be to have someone with ops at least around 24/7 for other people to harass when some authority needs to be asserted.09:03
LathiatAmaranth: yeh09:03
LathiatAmaranth: i should install davyds packages that fix that09:03
Amaranthogra: Ok, how do I do that?09:03
Lathiatbut.. effort09:03
Lathiatwhen im bored09:03
crimsuntritium: bob2 described it pretty well (similar to what mako said): we're fairly hands-off in terms of muzzling or banning, warn lots before actually muzzling09:03
ograAmaranth, meet someone else with a key in person.... sign each other09:03
Amaranthha09:04
Amaranthi live in iowa09:04
Lathiatyeh, warning and diffusing helps with trolls, otherwise it just gets worse09:04
ograAmaranth, at a LUG or at uni....09:04
tritiumcrimsun, good, I like that09:04
makowe don't need a #ubuntu irc war09:04
Kamionhttp://www.biglumber.com/x/web?qs=Iowa09:04
Amaranthogra: Anyone could do it?09:04
KamionI realise Iowa's a big place though09:04
ograAmaranth, see Kamion 09:04
KamionAmaranth: anyone who's already in the strongly-connected set09:04
makoi think if we're remotely respectful of each other, it'll be no problem09:04
Kamionor come to an Ubuntu conference :-)09:05

=== Amaranth is completely lost
ograthat will catapult you in the top 1000 immediately09:05
Simirahaha09:05
LathiatAmaranth: ok09:05
LathiatAmaranth: gpg keys09:05
LathiatAmaranth: they can be 'signed'09:05
makotritium: did you have other questions09:05
JanCAmaranth : preferably someone who's strongly involved in open source  ;-)09:05
Lathiatthis means that someone else has verified that key belongs to you09:05
Lathiatit usually involves checking each otehrs photo ID to confirm they are them09:06
AmaranthI got that part, the strongly-connected part confused me though.09:06
Lathiatand manually (in person) checking the key fingerprint is correct09:06
Lathiatso then by signign peopels keys09:06
Lathiatyou create a 'web of trust'09:06
tritiummako, just wondering about ChanServ issues09:06
Amaranthi'm on the other side of the state from the people on that website09:06
Lathiatso what you want is someone to sign your key09:06
Lathiatwho has been signed by lots of other people09:06
Lathiat(in the ubuntu communit)09:06
Lathiator at the very least, by 109:06
AmaranthOk, but none of those people live anywhere near me.09:08
KamionAmaranth: strongly-connected basically means that you're linked into the same web of signings as everyone else09:08
KamionAmaranth: (none of this is necessary for #ubuntu IRCopping or anything, in case there's confusion about that)09:09

Amaranthwould all that crap be required for motu? :P09:09
makotritium: that's it?09:09
ograAmaranth, yep09:09
Amaranthyeah, i think i'll just get someone else to package my stuff09:09
KamionI believe that's jdub09:09
crimsun(yep, gotta be a member to be a maintainer ;)09:09
ograAmaranth, because your key is your identity 09:09
Kamionand possibly lamont/fabbione/Keybuk09:10
Kamionmako: ^--09:10
tritiummako, yeah, sorry.  I didn't mean to keep you around.09:10
ograAmaranth, andyou verify your responsibility by signing the package09:10
Amaranthso how are all these people getting accepted for motu then? i doubt they're all meeting those guys in person09:10
makoKamion: cool09:10
LathiatAmaranth: other people can sponsor the packages09:10
Lathiatand upload them09:11
Lathiatrather than the person doing it09:11
ograAmaranth, one who has a signe key is enough09:11
makoAmaranth: they are meeting someone who i meeting someone who is meeting those guys09:11
KamionAmaranth: everyone who can upload has met up with somebody09:11
KamionAmaranth: Debian does this too - regardless of what you might have heard, getting one's key signed is usually not the hard part there09:11
Amaranthheh09:11
Amaranthwell, it's the hard part for me, i live in the middle of the country with no one even remotely near me09:12
Amaranthi'll just try to get sponsors09:12
Amaranthbtw, what's that biglumber.com site for?09:13
makoAmaranth: you must sometimes spend some time in a place where there are other computer users09:13
ograAmaranth, seeing where you find someone to sign you09:14
makoAmaranth: the site for people want to meet up and sign keys with other people :)09:14
Amaranthwell, i'm in omaha right now and lots of people are listed but i don't see how i can get someone to sign my key09:14
Kamionmail them and ask09:14
makoAmaranth: yeah dude.. just mail and ask.. if you're in omaha, you can definitely find someone09:15
Kamionthe people listed on biglumber are just those who signed themselves up there offering to sign keys, not everyone in the strong set09:15
ograAmaranth, they have put their data there intentional ;)09:15
makoAmaranth: you meet up and you ahve coffee/tea/beer/whatever.. you chat about computers, you exchange information09:15
makoyou get a key signed and you make a friend09:15
Kamionyeah, it's meant to be a social thing09:15
makoi've met lots of great people through keysigning09:15
Amaranthheh, there's the problem ;)09:16
amu.. ah thats the keytrinking and beersinging thing :) 09:16
tritiumAmaranth, just don't touch mako's passport09:16
AmaranthI don't do social things much. If I did I wouldn't be on IRC so much. :)09:16
ograhehe09:16
makodude, i've had places to stay while traveling through people i met originally throug hkeysignings :)09:16
makoAmaranth: yes, but chances are, these people ALSO do irc09:16
