| spiv | jamesh: Around? | 04:50 |
| jamesh | spiv: yeah | 04:51 |
| spiv | jamesh: The pending-reviews output for lifeless' arch-pqm branch seems weird to me. | 04:52 |
| spiv | There are conflicts that remove entire files. | 04:53 |
| jamesh | I just registered his robert.collins@c.c--general archive in my chinstrap home dir this morning | 04:53 |
| spiv | I just wanted a quick sanity check from you to know if it really does have crazy conflicts, or if you think something funny is going on. | 04:54 |
| jamesh | could be star-merge picking a bad ancestor | 04:55 |
| spiv | Well, pqm star-merges too. | 04:56 |
| jamesh | I'd ask lifeless, but he's on holiday | 04:57 |
| spiv | Right :) | 04:57 |
| bob2 | hm, is there a reason bug activity isn't the default bug view? | 04:57 |
| jamesh | hmm | 04:58 |
| jamesh | http://people.ubuntu.com/~robertc/robert.collins@canonical.com--general/arch-pqm/arch-pqm--main/arch-pqm--main--0/patch-7/log shows the last item is a merge from rocektfuel | 04:58 |
| jamesh | s/item/revision/ | 04:59 |
| spiv | Which means it shouldn't have crazy conflicts, I would have though. | 04:59 |
| spiv | patch-7? | 05:01 |
| spiv | I see a patch-52 from here. | 05:01 |
| jamesh | --general | 05:01 |
| jamesh | his public archive | 05:01 |
| spiv | Ah, right. | 05:02 |
| spiv | There's two branches there. | 05:02 |
| spiv | I got confused :) | 05:02 |
| spiv | Ok, I have another question... | 05:03 |
| spiv | Ah, you removed the other one because it was already merged? | 05:03 |
| jamesh | spiv: https://chinstrap.ubuntu.com/~jamesh/lifeless-pqm.patch <- without --star-merge | 05:04 |
| jamesh | yeah | 05:04 |
| spiv | So it was a dud merge. Ta. | 05:04 |
| jamesh | the type of dud merge PQM will have trouble with too | 05:05 |
| spiv | Yep. | 05:06 |
| spiv | But that's something lifeless can sort out, I only need to mention it in passing in a review. | 05:07 |
| jamesh | I wonder if lifeless just did a full rocketfuel merge to his public archive, or a selective one? | 05:07 |
| jamesh | (which might account for weird merging) | 05:07 |
| jamesh | bob2: you mean the "activity log" malone page? | 05:10 |
| jamesh | spiv: w.r.t. Mark's branches, I think the comment on PendingReviews says it all: "I'm not sure - I want the diff magic to show me!." | 05:55 |
| jamesh | he's not after a review yet -- just wants the stats page to track the diff, conflicts, etc for him | 05:55 |
| jamesh | maybe it should have been tagged doesn't-need-review-yet or somehting :) | 05:55 |
| spiv | jamesh: Well, he should have put it in his own queue then ;) | 06:00 |
| === jamesh grumbles about lost attribution in the "get info" pages of the wiki | ||
| spiv | In theory that could be fixed. | 06:06 |
| jamesh | I noticed that the names got fixed while the wiki was in Brazil | 06:06 |
| jamesh | but the changes since the moin 1.3 upgrade were broken | 06:07 |
| spiv | So long as everyone has the same wiki name in Launchpad as in the old wiki, it would be possible to write a script to migrate the old IDs to the new ones. | 06:07 |
| jamesh | now its switched back, so the data should all be there | 06:07 |
| spiv | The problem is that in Brazil, we were using plain moin 1.3. We're now back on Launchpad auth, which uses different user ids under the covers. | 06:07 |
| jamesh | well, it is a problem that will become less important as time goes on | 06:10 |
| spiv | Yeah. | 06:10 |
| spiv | If we keep running local wikis for sprints, it'll be a recurring issue though. | 06:12 |
| jamesh | I think this was just a one off | 06:12 |
| jamesh | it's a pain for the people not at the sprint | 06:12 |
| elmo | no, we'll do local wikis as most meetings | 06:12 |
| elmo | well meetings where everyone is there | 06:12 |
| elmo | and it's easily avoided, since AFAIK we'll allowed to do the LP auth from anywhere, so next time I just need to give the data and the moin packages | 06:13 |
| jamesh | with the way the Launchpad sprint was structured, only somewhere between a third and a half the team were in Brazil at any one time though | 06:14 |
| spiv | Well, it wouldn't be hard to run a local authserver for a local wiki. | 06:14 |
| jamesh | if the wiki was moved to Brazil but still accessible, it wouldn't have been too bad | 06:14 |
| jamesh | even if it was slower | 06:15 |
| spiv | (It'd be a variation what we're planning for AuthserverCaching) | 06:16 |

| sivang | jamesh: I'm sure I have an handful of warths, make sure you let me know of them so I can fix *and* learn :) | 09:40 |
| sivang | jamesh: btw, must I use the autogen.sh script or make dist with it or can I drop it out of the tarball distribution? | 09:41 |
| jamesh | sivang: to get a tarball, you should run ./autogen.sh, then "make distcheck" | 09:41 |
| sivang | jamesh: ok, I'll do that shortly. up until now I just used "make dist" to move the tarball around between palces I worked in | 09:43 |
| jamesh | sivang: "make distcheck" makes a tarball, unpacks it and does a build, then tries to create a tarball from that copy | 09:44 |
| jamesh | it helps pick up bugs that'd bite you further down the track | 09:44 |
| sivang | jamesh: cool , thx for the info :) | 09:55 |
| sivang | jamesh: I alwasy do make clean and make dist clean before I reattempt building etc, is this ok? | 09:57 |
| jamesh | sivang: shouldn't be necessary | 09:58 |
| jamesh | sivang: "make distcheck" should give you a tarball suitable for building a package | 09:58 |

| SteveA | hi | 10:06 |
| jamesh | hi SteveA | 10:09 |
| SteveA | hello jamesh | 10:10 |
| SteveA | i want to get the schemas that are used only for browser stuff moved into the launchpad/browser/ package somewhere | 10:11 |
| SteveA | this is kind of linked to making the autogenerated calendar forms have more user-oriented description fields | 10:12 |
| jamesh | just schemas, or all interfaces that are browser specific? | 10:12 |
| jamesh | okay | 10:12 |
| SteveA | because we can put schemas in there that extend the schoolbel schemas, but with improved descriptions (improved from the end-user point of view) | 10:13 |
| SteveA | that's a good question. i don't know if we have any browser-specific interfaces that are not schemas | 10:13 |
| jamesh | I have some for calendar date ranges | 10:13 |
| jamesh | the implementations are in browser/cal.py | 10:14 |
| SteveA | date ranges sound very generic to me. | 10:15 |
| jamesh | okay | 10:15 |
| SteveA | more "structural", if you see what i mean | 10:15 |
| SteveA | so i guess we can keep them in launchpad/interfaces/ | 10:15 |
| SteveA | what do you thin? | 10:15 |
| SteveA | think? | 10:15 |
| jamesh | it sounds like a good idea | 10:16 |
| jamesh | since the schemas used for data entry are likely to be similar to the interfaces for the real database objects | 10:16 |
| jamesh | and we probably don't want them mixed up | 10:16 |
| SteveA | mark originally wanted them to be kept together, because of the "keep all interfaces in one place" principle. but, in brazil, he'd had sufficient experience of using them to come around to keeping them separate. | 10:17 |
| SteveA | this is what zope3 does, more or less | 10:17 |
| SteveA | so, we need to decide where to put them in browser code | 10:18 |
| SteveA | we can move them from interfaces/whatever.py to browser/whatever.py | 10:18 |
| SteveA | that way, there's no new modules being created | 10:18 |
| SteveA | and the schemas are in the same module as they are most likely to be used in | 10:19 |
| jamesh | so we won't do something like browser/interfaces.py? | 10:19 |
| SteveA | reducing the number of imports needed | 10:19 |
| SteveA | right | 10:19 |
| jamesh | okay. that makes sense | 10:19 |
| jamesh | the "hard to find" aspect isn't as big a deal, for interfaces with only a single use | 10:20 |
| SteveA | in zope3, the standard is to put "external" interfaces in interfaces.py | 10:20 |
| SteveA | but "internal" interfaces near to where they are most often used | 10:20 |
| SteveA | everyone should be using ctags anyway | 10:21 |
| jamesh | so do we want to go through and move all browser level interfaces, or just keep it in mind during reviews? | 10:21 |
| SteveA | we should get them all moved into the right places. | 10:22 |
| SteveA | and also keep it in mind during reviews ;-) | 10:22 |
| jamesh | okay. You mentioned extending the schoolbell interface for a data entry schema | 10:23 |
| === bob2 [N=rob@crumbs.ertius.org] has joined #launchpad | ||
| jamesh | is that possible without redefining all the properties? | 10:23 |
| jamesh | (which is pretty much a new interface) | 10:23 |
| SteveA | it may be possible to say something like | 10:24 |
| SteveA | class SchoolBellForBrowser(SchoolBellOriginal): | 10:24 |
| SteveA | foo = SchoolBellOriginal.foo | 10:24 |
| SteveA | foo.description = _("Better description") | 10:24 |
| SteveA | 10:24 | |
| SteveA | i don't know for sure, though. | 10:25 |
| jamesh | that's going to update SchoolBellOriginal.foo.description though | 10:25 |
| SteveA | oh yeah | 10:25 |
| SteveA | i am still jetlagged ;-) | 10:25 |
| SteveA | so, you could do | 10:25 |
| SteveA | foo = BetterDescription('foo', "Better description") | 10:25 |
| SteveA | where BetterDescription does: | 10:25 |
| SteveA | - look up 'foo' from SchoolBellOriginal or its bases | 10:26 |
| SteveA | - clones foo, provided it is a Field. raises TypeError otherwise. | 10:26 |
| === bob2 [n=rob@crumbs.ertius.org] has joined #launchpad | ||
| SteveA | - resets the description on the clone | 10:26 |
| SteveA | BetterDescription would use the "class advice" hook | 10:27 |
| SteveA | so it actually runs after the SchoolBellForBrowser class suite is interpreted | 10:27 |
| SteveA | do you know about the class advice hook? | 10:28 |
| jamesh | no | 10:28 |
| SteveA | it is a fancy metaclasses trick | 10:28 |
| SteveA | i will get you some code, just a sec... | 10:29 |
| SteveA | launchpad/lib/zope/interface/advice.py | 10:29 |
| spiv | SteveA: Seems very magical. Can't you just use foo = copy.copy(SchoolBellOriginal.foo); foo.description = _("Better description")? | 10:29 |
| SteveA | copy.copy sounds very magical to me ;-) | 10:29 |
| spiv | You do have a point there ;) | 10:30 |
| SteveA | but, if that works, it's great. | 10:30 |
| SteveA | i don't know if Fields support being copied. | 10:30 |
| SteveA | copying uses pickle | 10:30 |
| spiv | But I'd rate copy.copy as lesser evil than metaclasses ;) | 10:30 |
| SteveA | i think | 10:30 |
| SteveA | so if it does, it won't work | 10:30 |
| SteveA | the class advice hook is what 'implements(IWhatever)' uses | 10:31 |
| jamesh | spiv: do you think sqlobject should have a converter for set instances? | 10:31 |
| spiv | Well, it falls back to some of the same infrastructure as pickle, without actually pickling. | 10:31 |
| SteveA | jamesh: so you now have two approaches, either of which *might* work :-) | 10:32 |
| SteveA | see zope/interface/declarations.py for how advice is used, using addClassAdvisor | 10:32 |
| jamesh | that code is evil :) | 10:33 |
| SteveA | i'm only partly responsible :-) | 10:33 |
| === jamesh hadn't considered using a non-type for __metaclass__ | ||
| spiv | jamesh: | 10:34 |
| spiv | >>> class Ten(1,2,3,4): | 10:34 |
| spiv | ... __metaclass__ = lambda n,b,d: sum(b) | 10:34 |
| spiv | ... | 10:34 |
| spiv | >>> print type(Ten), Ten | 10:34 |
| spiv | <type 'int'> 10 | 10:34 |

| carlos | SteveA, It should not be too difficult to implement a way to show it | 11:10 |

| WaterSevenUb | hi... suppose I download "nano" po file from rosetta (breezy), and upgrade hoary to the latest nano breezy. Should the translation match the version of breezy? | 01:08 |
| jordi | WaterSevenUb: in theory yes | 01:12 |
| jordi | WaterSevenUb: it doesn't? | 01:12 |
| WaterSevenUb | jordi: well... some of the strings that are translated in the PO file, like in the "help" text of "nano", when I run the program appear in the original (english), not translated. | 01:14 |
| jordi | WaterSevenUb: any other very visible string? | 01:15 |
| jordi | WaterSevenUb: what language? | 01:15 |
| WaterSevenUb | jordi: ??, Portuguese | 01:15 |
| jordi | oh. | 01:16 |
| jordi | any other string that is translated but isn't showing up? | 01:16 |
| WaterSevenUb | jordi: there are a lot of strings that do not appear in the PO file... but from the translated ones that do not appear I'm only finding one... give me one minute. | 01:19 |
| WaterSevenUb | jordi: yes, there are... and what is more strange is that "Constantly show cursor position" in the PO file appears in "nano" as "Constant cursor position display" | 01:22 |
| WaterSevenUb | jordi: so it seems that I'm mixing versions... | 01:22 |
| jordi | WaterSevenUb: ok | 01:22 |
| jordi | what version of nano are you using? 1.3.8? | 01:22 |

| carlos | SteveA, got the review emails from daf, I will try to merge those branches this week | 02:20 |
| jordi | carlos: I don't know why, but the breezy template of nano doesn't appear to be current. | 02:34 |
| carlos | jordi, the header says that it was generated on 2005-04-12 | 02:35 |
| WaterSevenUb | carlos: "POT-Creation-Date: 2005-07-06 11:47:56.556271+00:00\n" | 02:35 |
| carlos | jordi, perhaps the problem is that the .pot file shiped with nano is not in sync with the code? | 02:35 |
| jordi | "POT-Creation-Date: 2005-06-30 13:24-0400\n" | 02:35 |

| WaterSevenUb | carlos: "POT-Creation-Date: 2005-07-06 11:47:56.556271+00:00\n" - this is from the header of the PO file I downloaded | 02:36 |
| carlos | jordi, is it the same we have in breezy? | 02:36 |
| carlos | WaterSevenUb, from Rosetta? | 02:36 |
| WaterSevenUb | carlos: yes. | 02:36 |
| carlos | then the problem is that the .pot file is outdated | 02:36 |
| jordi | that date matches the release date of nano 1.3.8 | 02:36 |
| jordi | carlos: where, in rosetta or the tarball? | 02:37 |
| jordi | it is ok in the tarball | 02:37 |
| carlos | jordi, the imported version is 1.3.7-2 | 02:38 |

| jordi | the strings WaterSevenUb is seeing untranslated chanegd between 1.3.7 and 13.8 | 02:39 |

| SteveA | sure, i can do code reviews | 04:06 |
| SteveA | i'm off to the gym in a short while, though. but, i can do reviews later today. | 04:06 |
| salgado | that's great. do you still have my mail about the smallfixes--4 branch? | 04:07 |

| SteveA | well, it looks okay to me | 04:15 |
| SteveA | i'd use the variable 'dupe_person_name' instead of 'dupe', and make it email.person.name | 04:15 |
| SteveA | because you are not using 'dupe' anywhere else | 04:15 |
| salgado | godd point | 04:17 |
| SteveA | a comment would help, explaining that the next section of code is going to detect a dupe | 04:17 |
| SteveA | and if so, return text that tells the user they can merge accounts | 04:17 |
| SteveA | the error message would ideally be given in the page template itself | 04:17 |
| salgado | IIRC that's not possible because that method has to handle too many corner cases. to have the messges in the template I'd need to check a lot of possible return values from the method | 04:19 |
| SteveA | well... | 04:20 |
| SteveA | you could have the method set self.is_dupe_email on the view instance | 04:20 |
| SteveA | or some other appropriate name | 04:21 |
| SteveA | and then simply check that in the template | 04:21 |
| SteveA | or, you can have more than one template for the view | 04:21 |
| SteveA | include them as ViewPageTemplate attributes | 04:21 |
| SteveA | and choose which one you want depending on what case you're dealing with | 04:21 |
| SteveA | there are various ways of doing it | 04:22 |
| SteveA | maybe the way you have chosen is already the simplest | 04:22 |
| SteveA | i can't say, without looking closely at all the code | 04:22 |
| salgado | I think the way I choose is simplest than these ones you proposed, but I think it'd be better if I set some attributes in the view class and then move the messages to the template itself | 04:24 |
| SteveA | english language: "is simpler" | 04:26 |
| SteveA | sure | 04:26 |
| SteveA | that sounds like a good plan, then | 04:26 |
| SteveA | it means that the text is in the page template | 04:27 |

| bradb | SteveA: It seems as though we need a place to put classes that are "content classes" but are not tied to the database (e.g. BugTaskSearchParams is currently in the interfaces namespace :/) Would it be useful to create a canonical.launchpad.app namespace for this purpose? | 08:20 |
| kiko | bradb, note that SteveA was the one that suggested placing it in interfaces | 08:24 |
| bradb | evil! I created an interface for it and am now looking for a good home for the content class | 08:25 |

| bradb | no interface for BTSP... | 11:14 |
| bradb | SteveA: Should the interfaces package contain just interfaces, or should it contain things other than interfaces as well? | 11:15 |
| bradb | (like, say, BTSP_ | 11:15 |
| bradb | ) | 11:15 |
| SteveA | it already contains things other than interfaces | 11:15 |
| SteveA | it already contains things other than Interfaces | 11:15 |
| SteveA | basically, it should contain those things required to use "the interface" to the software | 11:15 |
| SteveA | these things include: | 11:16 |
| SteveA | - Interfaces | 11:16 |
| SteveA | - events | 11:16 |
| SteveA | - exceptions | 11:16 |
| === camilotelles [n=Camilo@201.32.223.192] has joined #launchpad | ||
| SteveA | - objects that represent the parameters to methods | 11:16 |
| SteveA | so, really, the package should be called 'interface' or perhaps 'api' instead of 'interfaces'. | 11:17 |
| SteveA | but, zope3 has stuck with 'interfaces' as a convention. we're broadly-speaking following what zope3 does. | 11:17 |
| bradb | SteveA: IOW, if a class is expected to only ever have one implementation, there should not be an Interface defined for it? | 11:20 |
| SteveA | that's one criteria, but it isn't sufficient | 11:21 |
| bradb | does the apidoc tool generate docs specifically for things that inherit from Interface? | 11:21 |
| SteveA | you can say: if a class is expected to only ever have one implementation, then you may consider not defining an interface for it. There are, however, other good reasons to define interfaces for many things. | 11:22 |
| SteveA | in launchpad, we don't need to define interfaces for: interfaces (they already exist), events, exceptions, parameter objects. Sometimes, the zope3 infrastructure makes things more convenient when we define an interface, for example for events or exceptions in some cases. | 11:23 |
| SteveA | but, this is arguably a shortcoming in zope3, rather than a best practice. | 11:23 |
| SteveA | apidoc understands interfaces (things that provide IInterface) | 11:24 |
| SteveA | and apidoc understands a lot of other things besides | 11:24 |
| SteveA | i must go to bed now -- trying to curtail the jetlag. | 11:24 |
| SteveA | before i go | 11:24 |
| SteveA | another way to look at the question of "where should BugTaskSearchParams go" is to consider what it is for | 11:25 |
| SteveA | it is part of the glue between browser code, or other application code, and database code | 11:25 |
| SteveA | you can think of the stuff in 'interfaces' as the glue | 11:25 |
| bradb | it's an object used to talk to the database code. | 11:25 |
| SteveA | right | 11:25 |
| SteveA | it isn't database code | 11:25 |
| bradb | not necessarily limited to browser -> db interaction | 11:25 |
| SteveA | nor is it application code as such | 11:26 |
| SteveA | it is glue | 11:26 |
| SteveA | that's why i said above "between browser code, or other application code" | 11:26 |
| bradb | right right | 11:26 |
| SteveA | dbschema stuff should really be in 'interfaces' too, but i'm not going to make that change just yet. | 11:27 |
| SteveA | for one thing, there are name collissions between dbschema classes and database classes | 11:27 |
| SteveA | for another thing, it is good to be able to clearly see what is a dbschema when it is used in code | 11:27 |
| bradb | it is indeed | 11:27 |
| SteveA | so, this needs some thought, and some new ideas | 11:27 |
| bradb | i wonder if BTSP belongs in searchbuilder then? | 11:28 |
| SteveA | i'll probably move it into canonical/launchpad/dbschema.py as a first step, though | 11:28 |
| bradb | or does the searchbuilder stuff belong in interfaces? | 11:28 |
| SteveA | it belongs with the interface that defines the operation it is used in | 11:28 |
| SteveA | that interface is IBugTarget, right? | 11:28 |
| bradb | or IBugTaskSet, i believe | 11:29 |
| bradb | yes, IBugTaskSet as well | 11:29 |
| SteveA | so, it belongs right next to IBugTarget or IBugTaskSet | 11:29 |
| SteveA | i see what you mean about searchbuilder, though | 11:29 |
| SteveA | where is that at the moment? | 11:29 |
| bradb | canonical/launchpad/searchbuilder.pt | 11:30 |
| bradb | .py, even | 11:30 |
| SteveA | so, i guess it could go there. but, i seems a bit odd to me. i wonder what others think. | 11:30 |
| bradb | I'd happily get rid of searchbuilder entireliy | 11:30 |
| bradb | NULL could simply be None | 11:31 |
| SteveA | well, one thing at a time | 11:31 |
| SteveA | i'm off to sleep. | 11:31 |
| SteveA | see you tomorrow -- launchpad meeting, btw | 11:31 |
| bradb | ok, i'll roll back the iface definition for BTSP, thanks. see you tomorrow morning. | 11:31 |
| bradb | kiko: so, there you go, i guess BugTaskSearchParams does belong in interfaces then because 1. it's part of the launchpad API and 2. we don't expect to have another implementation for it. | 11:35 |
| bradb | there might be other reasons as well, but those were the two that i gathered to be the most important from talking to SteveA | 11:36 |
| kiko | yeah | 11:37 |
| kiko | bradb, do you think that doing IBugTarget.createTask is a good thing? | 11:37 |
| kiko | I have it done in my local tree but am still unsure | 11:37 |
| bradb | kiko: no, but i also don't think .searchTasks is particularly useful either. my thinking might be entirely wrong though. | 11:38 |
| bradb | kiko: do you think createTask is a good thing? | 11:39 |
| bradb | (or, put slightly differently, why are you unsure?) | 11:40 |
| kiko | well | 11:40 |
| kiko | searchTasks is useful if you want to do generic queries independent on what target it is | 11:41 |
| bradb | right, unless they evolve to have different params (like createTask) | 11:43 |
| bradb | at which point the value of IBugTarget's current API would seem to diminish | 11:43 |
| kiko | different params? | 11:44 |
| kiko | in what sense, bradb? | 11:44 |
| bradb | actually, they already do have different search params | 11:44 |
| kiko | really? | 11:44 |
| bradb | e.g. you wouldn't search for a specific sourcepackagename in an upstream | 11:44 |
| bradb | or bp name | 11:44 |
| kiko | good point | 11:44 |
| kiko | those are the only ones, right? | 11:45 |
| bradb | distrorelease | 11:45 |
| kiko | we could use params inheritance :-) | 11:45 |
| === bradb watches a mental movie of the sab hearing that news | ||
| bradb | :P | 11:46 |
| bradb | productseries | 11:46 |
| bradb | productrelease | 11:46 |
| bradb | etc. | 11:46 |
| kiko | it's unfortunate -- I think the proper design would be to use a hierarchy of adapters (BaseTaskCollection and ProductTaskCollection, for instance) but it's not my call | 11:47 |
| kiko | and you'd adapt product to ITaskCollection | 11:47 |
| kiko | but that's subsets, isn't it? | 11:48 |
| bradb | i was just going to say... | 11:48 |
| bradb | :) | 11:48 |
| jblack | stevea: ping | 11:48 |
| bradb | i would agree that it's not as evil as it sounds though | 11:48 |
| jblack | nah. he's sleeping | 11:48 |
| kiko | it solves the problem better than a params instance | 11:48 |
| === jblack stands in line behind bradb for kiko | ||
| kiko | but let's let sleeping dogs lie | 11:49 |
| bradb | kiko knokws how to multi-task | 11:49 |
| bradb | :P | 11:49 |
| bradb | kiko: right | 11:49 |
| kiko | createTask() however does clean up some pretty gnarly if/elsing in one callsite | 11:49 |
| jblack | 17:44 < madduck> jblack: ok. lemme top off the night by telling you something | 11:49 |
| jblack | about me, and why i am even here... | 11:49 |
| jblack | 17:44 < madduck> i may well switch my phd field to workflow and productivity | 11:49 |
| jblack | management | 11:49 |
| jblack | 17:46 < madduck> so one of my first goals would be to improve the way teams | 11:50 |
| jblack | work on packages, and how to support multiple distros from a | 11:50 |
| jblack | single source | 11:50 |
| kiko | it appears that the pattern of the callsite not knowing what sort of target it has in its hand may not be that common | 11:50 |
| jblack | 17:46 < madduck> jblack: i'll be watching ubuntu, but i want to concentrate on | 11:50 |
| jblack | debian | 11:50 |
| jblack | (I didn't paste every line of his) | 11:50 |
| kiko | jblack, the best place for him to work is launchpad | 11:50 |
| bradb | kiko: interesting observation. | 11:51 |
| jblack | Basically, a guy is doing his phd on workflow analysis, wants to study the relationship between patchflow between distros. | 11:51 |
| kiko | observing relationships inside hct | 11:51 |
| kiko | (provided sourcerer is observing these distros) | 11:51 |
| jblack | He's talked to Mark at least once, has heard of hct. Seems like a good guy to tell more about. | 11:51 |
| kiko | yeah | 11:52 |

| Burgundavia | how do I assign a bug to someone now? | 11:53 |
| jblack | Imagine... launchpad being a thesis. | 11:53 |
| bradb | Burgundavia: what screen are you looking at? | 11:53 |
| Burgundavia | https://launchpad.net/malone/bugs/1735 | 11:54 |
| bradb | hey! what happened to the assign link!? | 11:54 |
| bradb | kiko: ^^ any idea? | 11:54 |
| kiko | Burgundavia, bradb: it's now edit/view a task. | 11:55 |
| bradb | i guess it was squished in favour of [edit] ? | 11:55 |
| kiko | yes | 11:55 |
| Burgundavia | oh there, ok | 11:56 |
| bradb | the 1.0 announcement will include a link to the FAQ, question #1 being "How do I assign a bug?" :) | 11:56 |
| bradb | which should reduce the number of times that question has to be answered by about 10% | 11:56 |
| Burgundavia | ok | 11:57 |
| Burgundavia | the edit link is a lot more sane than clicking the whole line | 11:57 |
| Burgundavia | I just didn't see it | 11:57 |
| bradb | that's our fault | 11:58 |
| bradb | but...that's likely how it'll work for 1.0 as well | 11:58 |
| kiko | we could add an icon as mpt has suggested in the past | 11:59 |
| bradb | given that the only clickable link in that row now (AFAIK) is the edit/view link, an icon could be a good way of drawing it out more | 12:00 |
| mpt | I could do that tomorrow | 12:00 |
| bradb | sounds good | 12:01 |
| dilys | Merge to rocketfuel@canonical.com/dists--devel--0: [trivial] Update production-1.27 config (patch-104: stuart.bishop@canonical.com) | 12:02 |
| Burgundavia | it would be nice at the bug page to link to the main gnome-screensaver page with trranslations, bugs, etc. | 12:02 |
| mpt | That will happen automatically when | 12:03 |
