fabbionePygi: ping?12:04
Pygifabbione:pong 12:05
Unfunfabbione, would it be possible to get some information on joining the Ubuntu Server Team?12:05
fabbioneUnfun: in a few minutes?12:05
UnfunSure!12:06
fabbionethanks :)12:11
fabbioneUnfun: i should have send out an email to the mailing list (will do tomorrow) or somebody is welcome to just copy paste what i write :)12:13
fabbioneand send it to the mailing list12:13
fabbionebasically we consider people part of team, all the guys that have a direct interest in the project and want to contribute to it12:14
fabbionecontribution can be done in several ways12:14
fabbioneincluding pre-testing of new images and so on12:14
fabbionei don't really put a barrier on what is considered contribution12:14
fabbionethe real minimum i want to see to accept membership is at least your wiki page with info on what you plan to do with this project12:15
fabbionethat i don't consider an unberable amount of work to do to be part of the team :)12:15
fabbioneUnfun: is it a bit more clear now?12:15
Unfunvery clear12:16
fabbionePygi: want to take care to copy/paste and send to the mailing list? or perhaps add it as FAQ somewhere?12:16
UnfunI work with a good amount of servers and i'm interesting in doing testing for the project.12:17
fabbioneUnfun: you could do that too :)12:17
fabbioneUnfun: that's great :)12:17
UnfunI have around 120 linux servers in production and looking to add maybe 60 more this year12:17
fabbionetest is something that's very very very important12:17
Pygifabbione: hm, just a moment pls12:17
fabbionePygi: sure12:17
Unfuni want to switch from debian to ubuntu completely12:17
Unfunso far i put 2 boxes on 5.10 in prod12:17
fabbioneUnfun: i do have 5 servers running12:18
fabbioneon different loads..12:18
Pygifabbione: k, I'll send it to the ubuntu-devel. Btw. any signs of getting ubuntu-server thingy?12:18
fabbionePygi: what about looking at topic? ;)12:18
UnfunI can also contribute bandwidth/mirroring if needed12:18
Pygifabbione: oh ;) where do I subscribe to that list? ;)12:19
fabbioneUnfun: that'd be great too, but we don't need specific server infrastructure. if you can offer a mirror, i suggest you contact our admins directly12:19
Unfunk12:20
fabbionePygi: http://lists.ubuntu.com/12:20
fabbionesomething we should make clear is that the -server "edition"12:20
fabbioneis just the same plain software that's available to all ubuntu installations12:20
fabbionewith the difference that on the ubuntu cd you install a desktop by default12:21
fabbionewith the -server CD you have apache2 or whatever server software12:21
Pygiyup, ofcourse12:21
fabbionethe rest such as base installer will be the same12:21
fabbionealso12:21
fabbioneon our Cd we will ship a -server kernel12:21
fabbionethat will be the biggest and probably only difference from the standard cd12:22
fabbiones/standard/desktop12:22
fabbionePygi: we should also add this to a FAQ on the wiki12:22
fabbioneand point people there :)12:22
Pygik, that might be a good idea12:22
Unfunis that wiki public yet?12:22
fabbioneUnfun: wiki.ubuntu.com12:23
fabbioneit has always been :)12:23
fabbionewe hide nothing12:23
fabbionebecause we don't need too12:23
Unfunoh i thought maybe a server edition had its own12:23
fabbionenah12:23
fabbioneno point for it12:23
=== lamont [n=lamont@mix.mmjgroup.com] has joined #ubuntu-server
fabbioneperhaps we want to be sensible and use a subsir12:23
fabbionelike wiki.ubuntu.com/server/12:23
fabbioneor whatever wiki likes the best12:23
fabbionebut getting yet another wiki is only object of confusion imho12:24
Pygifabbione: lists.ubuntu.com doesn't list a ubuntu-server list or I am getting blind ;)12:24
fabbioneif at a certain point the load will be too much, we can ask to move12:24
Unfunhe said ubuntu-dev12:24
fabbioneUnfun: no no.. ubuntu-server12:24
Unfunhmm12:24
Unfundidnt see that as an option either12:25
fabbionehmm12:25
fabbionethat's true, but it's there12:25
fabbionejust use the standard mailman thingy12:25
Pygiok, a link where I can subscribe?12:25
Unfuni sub'd to ubuntu-devel12:25
fabbionehttp://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server/12:26
Pygifabbione:k, I found it12:26
Pygithanks12:26
Unfunthanks12:26
Pygionce I subscribe, I'll copy paste the things you said12:27
fabbionesure12:27
fabbioneperhas do it in 2 mails12:27
fabbioneone for the membership12:28
fabbioneand one to start up the FAQ after you create a page on the wiki12:28
fabbioneso you can copy paste on the wiki and send the link out for people to edit/etc.12:28
Pygik, when should I open a wiki?12:30
fabbioneeven now if you want12:30
fabbionei am sort of heading to sleep :)12:31
Pygiheh, me too ;)12:31
fabbioneor tomorrow will be fine12:31
Pygiremember, the same time ;)12:31
fabbioneright12:31
Pygi00:31 ;)12:31
fabbionei can't exactly remember TZ for everybody12:31
fabbioneand i need to wake up in 5:3012:31
Pygik, good night12:31
fabbionenight12:32
Unfunhttps://launchpad.net/people/antirock12:34
Pygihehe, good, but I would suggest you do a thing like that on wiki12:35
Pygiyour personal wiki page12:35
fabbioneUnfun: could you please also ask membership to the team? so i will get a nice mail that will remind me to look at it?12:35
fabbioneUnfun: you do that directly on the ubuntu-server page12:35
fabbionethanks guys12:35
Unfunthat is my personal wiki12:35

nictukuafter dapper, when will another "blessed" server be released?11:29
nictukuevery year?11:30
PygiDon't know for sure, but it should be every 6 months, same as regular ubuntu/edubuntu/kubuntu11:30
nictukuHmm. that doesn't make sense, I think. Blessed releases will have 5 years support. I believe they won't be shipped so often.11:32
PygiMaybe, as I said....I am not sure ;)11:32
Pygifabbione: ping11:32
nictuku:-)11:32
Pygijust a moment nictuku, I am sure fabbione knows11:32
nictukualso, I'd like to help with a certain feature being developed, the network wide update11:33
Pygiyou can offer your help to fabbione once he's around ;)11:34
nictukuI'm making a python library for multi-plataform system information data, and maybe it could be useful for that tool.11:34
nictukuok :)11:34
=== spike [n=spike@unaffiliated/spike] has joined #ubuntu-server
Pygiwelcome spike11:36
nictukuone of the features planned for the NetworkWideUpdates tool is to "provide a way to easily see the status of the machines". I believe showing general machine information could be useful.11:37

UnfunIs NetworkWideUpdates released yet?11:37
Pygiwelcome mipe11:38
infinityNo.  It's a spec that mvo and I intend to work on "some day", but it's currently not high priority.11:38
UnfunSounds like cfenginey11:38
infinityNot really.11:38
infinityIt's not meant for config files.11:38
=== ealden [n=ealden@ipdial-167-116.tri-isys.com] has joined #ubuntu-server

infinityLarge-scale, though.11:39
Pygiwelcome ealden11:39
nictukuinfinity, I read there is a a draft code ready. is that so?11:39
Unfuninfinity, i ran into library hell with getting Adaptec manager going on 5.1011:39
ealdenhi Pygi11:40
infinityThe draft code was for an old spec draft we did, and it's pretty much obsolete by the ideas/design in the newer spec.11:40
infinityUnfun : Ouch.  How hellish?11:40
infinityUnfun : Something that couldn't be solved with "ldd /path/to/binary -> find packages containing those libraries"?11:41
UnfunJust wants different version of libstdc++11:41
=== mipe [n=mipe@gate-so-1.actebis.com] has left #ubuntu-server []
infinityUnfun : We have several in the archive. :)11:41
infinityUnfun : Easy enough.11:41
infinityProbably wanted libstdc++511:42
Unfunlet me check again11:42
Unfun1s11:42
=== infinity wishes people wouldn't write system tools in C++
=== infinity diverts attention away from the fact that apt is C++
Pygiand you like C better? ;)11:44

infinityAs a general rule, yes.11:44
Pygiinfinity: heh, agreed ;)11:44
infinityUnfun : Woo.  Ancient.11:44
Pygialtought some people really like to POINT OUT how C++ is much more superior ;)11:45
Unfuninfinity, i know11:45
nictukuinfinity, I'd be glad if I could volunteer for making a working version based on those specs (xmlrpc, pull/push, cli interface)11:45
infinityUnfun : libstdc++2.10-glibc2.211:45
Pygibut they neither know C or C++ ;)11:45
Unfunthats in archives?11:45
infinityErr, not on amd64 it's not.11:45
UnfunDarn11:46
infinityWait.  That was the amd64 binary, or the i386 binary?11:46
Unfunthat one was amd6411:46
Unfunlet me try i38611:46
infinityDear god.  That must have been built on an ancient SuSE system.11:47
infinityHow SuSE even got gcc-2.95 to compile (and WHY), I have no idea.11:47
spikecan anybody help e with lvm?11:50
spikebasically I got this box A where I had somelvmgroup and somelvmvolumes11:50

spikeif I boot knoppix on this lvm partitioned box, and run lvmdiskscan, it sees the lvm partition (hda5)11:51
infinitynictuku : Meet mvo, the apt maintainer, and the other addle-brained whackjob (other thaqn me) behind that crazy spec.11:52
infinitymvo : nictuku is the guy who just accidentally volunteered to implement our halfassed spec. :)11:52
spikebleh, gtg, later11:53
=== mvo mubbles about apt-co-maintainer
infinitynictuku : Also, it's apparently mvo's bedtime, but he's too polite to ever say "no" to anyone, so if we could discuss this sometime tomorrow, that'd be cool.11:53
infinitymvo : Produce recent apt work by mdz and culus, and I'll agree.  (people uploading your code changes don't count)11:54
Unfuninfinity, same libraries for the i386 version11:55
mvonictuku: hello! happy to hear that you are interessted in working on this spec!11:55
nictukuinfinity, sure :-)11:55
nictukumvo, great. Any problem if I'd like to code it in python?11:56
nictukuwe could discuss the details tomorrow then11:56
mvonictuku: not at all, python is the prefered language for us11:57

mvonictuku: talk to me any time your want (I'm around in #ubuntu-desktop, #ubuntu-devel). we should try to get infinity too, but that should be easy because he never sleeps11:58
