mptBurgundavia: I'd like Malone to not be about commenting on bugs, because that means you have to read a bazillion comments to find out what the state of play is03:41
Burgundaviaok03:42
BurgundaviaI am failing to see how this connects to me, sorry03:42
mptBecause you asked me to comment on a couple of bugs03:45
Burgundaviaah, ok03:45
Burgundaviareally, I am asking you whether or not you thought my ideas were sound or crack03:45
mptBurgundavia: For example, bug 809, you gave a description of 6 numbered points, then added a 7th ... in a comment. It doesn't go in a comment, it goes in the description. :-)03:46
Burgundaviaah, ok03:46
BurgundaviaI didn't see that distinction03:46
mptYeah, the interface sucks a.t.m.03:46
mptProbably will for a while03:47
mptI agree with both those bugs, though03:47
Burgundaviaok, that is what I looking for03:48
mptI'd like a single page for signing up and registering a project at the same time for Rosetta03:48
Burgundaviathat would be nice03:48
mpthmm03:48
Burgundaviamy idea is to hide as much of the "bugzilla-style interface" behind nicer screens, for those people who don't have to see it03:49
mptI was thinking that was analogous to what you're asking for in 809, but it's not really, is it03:49
Burgundaviawell, they can be03:49
mpt809 is caring more about whether a package is in Ubuntu than whether it's in Launchpad.03:49
Burgundaviawe can have on product registration page03:49
Burgundaviawhich would register it everywhere by default03:50
Burgundaviaand looks for it in the distros we track03:50
Burgundaviaand if it is not there, adds a request for it03:50
mptsounds reasonable03:54
Burgundaviawhat kind of UI would we want for this? Is there any reason why we would not want to request a package or add a product to rosetta?03:55
Burgundaviain other words, should there be some selectablity there?03:55
mptWell, who's going to look at those requests?03:56
mptAfaik, daf and carlos only have time to set up products if they get sent the POT files or told exactly where they are03:56
Burgundaviayes, so maybe leave out rosetta by default?03:57
Burgundaviaor have a checkmark, disabled by default03:57
mptLeave out Rosetta from what?03:57
Burgundaviathis "add product page"03:58
Burgundaviathen have a checkmark, then, when checked, ungreys a place to list packages to upload or a URL03:58
Burgundaviampt, as for the UI, description, vs comments04:06
Burgundaviamaybe make the description editiable up top and remove the editable place04:06
mpt"the editable place"?04:07
mptAs for the general product registration page, I don't think it should have setup fields for every Launchpad application04:07
mptthat won't scale04:07
mptI meant a specialized setup page for Rosetta that includes a copy of the product registration form inside it.04:08
Burgundaviaok04:08
=== Burgundavia hates irc for discussions like this
Burgundaviawhat about things that have already been registered in Launchpad?04:09
mptThen they'd use the normal Rosetta setup page.04:11
Burgundaviaok04:11
mptAnyway, sorry for bringing Rosetta into this conversation based on something I thought was a parallel but actually isn't :-)04:12
Burgundaviaok04:12
Burgundaviaso we would thus have 2 setup pages, one for Launchpad/requesting apps04:12
Burgundaviaand another for rosetta04:12
Burgundaviafor the first page, we do need some sort of UI for adding things to rosetta as well, as some people will have the necessary po/pot files04:13
mptThat doesn't scale04:13
mptImagine in three years that we have eight Launchpad apps04:14
Burgundaviayes04:14
mptRosetta and Malone and six others04:14
mptDo you want the setup stuff for all of them on the add-product page?04:14
Burgundavianot really04:15
Burgundaviabut with some javascript voodoo, we can hide the setup options for those by default, and only show them if clicked04:15
Burgundaviajust an idea, maybe crazy04:15

pschulz01Anything wrong with lauchpad at the moment?11:43
SteveAyeah11:43
SteveAso, there's a problem with certain product home pages11:44
SteveAthey give system errors11:44
SteveAthere's a quick fix being applied to launchpad right now to fix that11:44
SteveAand a proper fix to be applied when we update the servers properly later in the week.11:44
pschulz01I'm having a problem logging in.11:44
SteveAand a test being written to ensure that this particular problem won't happen again11:44
SteveAoh, that's interesting11:44
pschulz01It's laking a long time.. first-time cameback with what looked like a cache11:45
pschulz01error11:45
SteveAtell me what URL you're using to log in11:46
pschulz01https://launchpad.ubuntu.com/+login11:46
SteveAokay. i think the server is being restarted with that fix i mentioned.11:46
pschulz01Trying again.. 11:47
SteveAi got a page, but it is being very slow11:48
SteveAi'll ask the admins about it.11:48
pschulz01cheers :-)11:48
pschulz01in now11:49
SteveAokay11:49
SteveAso, here's what i know11:49
SteveAright now, certain things that happen in rosetta in launchpad take a lot of CPU resources11:49
=== Burgundavia [~corey@S0106000000cc07fc.gv.shawcable.net] has joined #launchpad
SteveAand i mean a huge amount11:50
SteveAor is that memory and database resources11:50
SteveAanyway, a huge amount of resources11:50
SteveAand when these run, the whole system slows down a lot11:50
SteveAthe rosetta team have got a refactoring that avoids the problem11:50
SteveAbut it isn't available on the server yet11:50
SteveAso that looks like what is happening11:50
SteveAthe best i can suggest right now is, if this happens again, try again in a few minutes, when the greedy operation has probably finished11:51
