Pygiyesh :P03:32
Valandiland how can I support this?03:32
Valandil(sorry, I did not have the time yet, to analyze ubuntu-internal procedures. I'm just working on distributing ubuntu and collecting proposals for ubuntu-server)03:34
Pygihuh, doesn't matter as I said :P03:34
Valandilbtw: my first productive ubuntu-server is online since yesterday03:34
Pygihehe, congrats03:35
Valandiland if it seems to be stable, the others will follow03:35
Valandilby now I have big problems with MaxDB03:36
Valandilthx :)03:36
Pygihuh, what's wrong with MaxDB?03:36
Valandilif it doesn't work on ubuntu, I have to see :(03:36
fabbioneit's in universe....03:36
Valandilit won't start03:36
fabbionei doubt somebody even looked at it03:36
Valandilwahttpd crashes with segfault03:36
Valandilhmmm03:37
ValandilI use it productive since 2003 on debian woody03:37
Pygi:/03:37
ValandilI built adaptive packgages for it, but in debian noone was interested :( So I was my own mantainer ;)03:38
Pygi:/03:39
Pygihuh, offer it to the MOTU's?03:47
ValandilPygi: since it is in universe - does it have no mantainer? or where ca I find the Contact to mantainer? I looked in Database, but there is nothing written about mantainer03:47
Pygiwell, then you can take it over :)03:47
Valandilyes, this was my intention :)03:47
Pygiif you are a MOTU :)03:47
Pygilet's go to MOTU, and I'll back you up :P03:47
Pygi#ubuntu-motu03:47

ValandilI'm yust a server-fanatic student ;)04:35
Valandilbut I'd do my very best...04:35
Pygi:)04:35
Valandilwent to #ubuntu-motu04:36
Pygik, now say it :)04:37

spikehi there04:54
Pygihi spike04:55
Valandilhi spike :)04:58
fabbionehey guys04:58
Pygihey fabbione04:58
fabbionewho feels to contribute 5 minutes of time?04:59
spikelo fabbione04:59
Valandilhi fabbione04:59
=== spike raises his hand
=== Valandil too
fabbioneperfect04:59
fabbionehttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/ServerCandy <-04:59
fabbioneThird party software inclusion <-05:00
Pygihuh, so you don't need me :P05:00
fabbionewe need to create the list mentioned there05:00
fabbionewho wants to be in charge of it?05:00
fabbioneand start mailing also ubuntu-server05:00
spikeexpected deadline?05:01
spikebesides the canned "asap" :)05:01
Pygihm, 10 years? :)05:02
fabbionei would say to have a list to start from in a week?05:02
fabbionemax 2 weeks05:02
fabbionespike: i am not asking to do the full list05:02
fabbionebut start it05:02
fabbioneput it in the wiki05:02
fabbionepost the page on the mailing list05:02
fabbioneand let the others add their piece of software05:02
fabbioneit's virtually impossible to know all of them by one person05:03
fabbioneValandil, spike: can i count on you for this work?05:04
fabbionei mean..05:04
fabbioneto start the list of tools05:04
fabbionei don't expect you to run and check everything05:04
Valandiljust a sec, still reading (my english, You remember? ;) )05:04
spikefabbione: yeah, already have a few of e05:04
spike'em noted down along the time from debian-isp05:05
spikefabbione: I'll go and setup myself an account on the wiki, havent got one so far05:05
fabbionespike: ok cool05:05
fabbionespike: best to do is to create a wiki page, link it from the main servercandy page05:05
fabbioneand post the url to the mailing list05:05
spikefabbione: but I'm definitely in the 2 weeks time slot, not one sorry, have some more travelling scheduled in the next week and stuff to do since I just moved. but I'll definitely do it, I planned to start contributing anyway with the new year05:06
spikefabbione: sure, I'll go that way05:06
fabbionespike: perfect05:07
Pygifabbione: how is this going along?05:08
Pygihttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkWideUpdates05:08
fabbionespike:  i suggest to open the page asap, even with one entry only.. and post it05:08
fabbioneso people will have time to start adding stuff to it05:08
fabbionespike: the rest will come on its own (i hope)05:08
fabbionePygi: no idea. you need to ask to who is in charge (see launchpad entry)05:08
spikefabbione: I'll take some time to add stuff about automation too, guess I have got something to say about it, and I'd definitely love to see more of that in ubuntu05:09
spikewhich is actually linked to that page Pygi just mentioned05:09
fabbioneautomatation?05:10
fabbionei only nees "Third party software inclusion" for now05:10
fabbionefrom https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ServerCandy05:10
Pygifabbione: that page in launchpad seems to be erased :/05:10
fabbionePygi: iirc it's mvo that is doing that spec05:10
spikefabbione: well, ok, saw the page Pygi posted and thought of mentioning it. imho, they're wasting time on that. there are already *good* tools, production quality,that do that05:11
spikeu don't really need to spend time redesigning and implementing a new one05:12
fabbionespike: you want to tell that in the page :)05:12
fabbionereally05:12
fabbionei don't follow each single subprojhect in ubuntu05:12
fabbionei would need 96 hours a day to do so05:12
spikeok, I have no idea about how things really work in the ubuntu team, sorry05:12
fabbionespike: eheh no problem :)05:13
spikestarted collecting a few info about motu a week ago or so05:13
Pygifabbione:heh, I shall candidate myself for a member on next meeting :P05:13
fabbionePygi: you should first produce high quality contribution.. a mail to -server isn't enough.. really05:13
Pygihehe :)05:14
fabbioneyou need to do a bit more, get known by the community05:14
fabbioneand so on05:14
Pygihuh, I am "known" :)05:14
fabbioneit's a suggestion to avoid you the pain to go there a few times for nothing05:14
Pygiah, ok, nevermind05:14
Pygik, thanks :P05:14
Valandilfabbione: I'll try to. by now I'm not yet shure, what exactly You want... but I think, I have a idea of what You want ;)05:17
fabbioneValandil: i want a list of proprietary tools that it would be nice to have on CD05:18
fabbioneor extremely easy to install05:18
fabbionelike for example: tool from company FOO to manage their special RAID controller05:18
fabbionebut we need a list of these tools05:18
ValandilOK, got it05:18
ValandilOK, I'll do my part. But I don't use much of proprietary stuff, so I'm not really best address for this ;)05:20
Pygifabbione: please kick me out of server team, thanks05:23
fabbionePygi: why?05:23
Pygifabbione: 'cause I am, and I obviously won't do nothin', so no point in continuing this....05:24
fabbionePygi: dude.. stop and think one minute, ok?05:24
fabbioneto be an ubuntu memeber with upload privileges05:24
fabbioneyou need at least to have some experience with packaging05:25
Pygifabbione: huh, yes, I do understand05:25
fabbioneand i can tell you that people in the different teams that do check on other people05:25
fabbionewill look at that05:25
Pygifabbione: no problem with that :P05:25
fabbionehence my suggestion to do something more05:25
fabbionethat does not mean you need to vaporize yourself with a garbage disintegrator05:25
fabbioneit's a suggestion to start to contribute more05:25
fabbioneand become a memeber05:25
fabbionejust do it in the right steps05:26
fabbioneso that you will SCORE a success on the first attempt05:26
Pygihuh, I tried contributing at start with InstantServer, and nothin' happened out of that because none actually wanted to work :/05:26
Pygiit actually doesn't matter to me if I am member or not...05:27
fabbioneyes i remember the Instant server thing05:27
fabbionebut i don't think it's good to just give up like this05:28
fabbionetry and see05:28
fabbioneit's not like i have a fetish need to kick people out of the team05:28
fabbioneit doesn't give me any personal satisfaction.. you know ;)05:28
Pygihuh, yesh, I do understand you don't wanna kick no one, but I was accepted into team just for that instant thingy :/05:28
PygiAnd as I ain't doing on it anymore, ....05:28
fabbionePygi: try to do something else :)05:29
fabbionethere are so many things to do05:29
fabbionelike the list that spike and Valandil will start to work on05:29
fabbioneit's not a 2 person thing05:29
fabbioneand it's something you could as well do05:29
fabbionebrowing sites to find them might even be fun05:29
fabbionebrowsing05:29
Pygig05:29
Pygiheh*05:30
fabbionei have issues to go and look at some websites.. i get this irrestable need of buying everything :P05:30
Pygihehe :)05:30
Valandil*lol*05:30
fabbioneand i am sure my wife is not ready yet for a SUN e25k in the house05:30
fabbioneneither is my bank account, but i can still trade my wife ;)05:31
Pygifabbione: I believe you understand why and what I am doin' .... You are also a developer, andyou wouldn't like to do something where development is not involved :P05:31
Pygiand lol :)05:31
fabbionePygi: if you want to develop for real.. want to start to look at "Provide a RCS /etc out of the box"05:32
fabbioneand see if we can get somewhere using shell scripts?05:32
fabbioneperhaps something modular that we can plug in different RCS?05:32
fabbionethat will require some code writing05:32
Pygihuh, as I said fabbione, please kick me out of team...05:33
Pygithats better for everyone...05:33
fabbioneok remind me in a couple of days when i will spend time on launchpad05:33
Pygik05:33
fabbioneso perhaps you have time to think again about it05:33
ValandilPygi: perhaps You could find also fun in 'baby-sitting' ;-) I could need someone, who takes me by hand... I'd like to work, but I don't know how :(05:34
Pygihuh :P05:34
Valandilno, really - I'm admin, but I'm defnitely not experienced in developing things for public05:35
PygiValandil: well, you see, I am developing all the time something :P05:36
ValandilPygi: ;-) so You'd be a perfect mentor ;)05:37
ValandilPygi: No, to be serious: it was just an idea05:37
Pygiheh, what would you wanna know? coding? in what language?05:38
Valandilall languages ;)05:38
spikeincluded the universal language of love05:38
ValandilI love shell-scripts, perl and c, but in c i'm just starting05:39
Valandilspike: *lol*05:39
Pygiwell, in those I could assist you in C, and shell scripts05:39
Valandilbut I think my main problem is, how to work for ubuntu / public/...05:39
Pygican help you in python as well05:39
Pygivalandil: go fix keyboard change error05:40
Valandilpython is very interesting, but never had the time05:40
=== Pygi would like to do that, but don't know where to get code and where to send patches :)
ValandilI don't even know anything about this error05:41
Valandilwhat do You mean?05:41
Pygiwell, changing keyboard layout in that gnome utility doesn't work :P05:41
Pygithats the bug :P05:42
Valandil*uurgh* gnome :( ... OK, I will take a look on this...05:42
Pygithats easy to fix, and you will learn :)05:43
ValandilOK :) I'll do my very best05:43
Valandilbut why did You say, You caqn't get the code?05:43
Valandilisn't it in the sources-package?05:44
PygiI don't know where to get ubuntu code :P05:44
spikeis this #ubuntu-server, isnt it? why on earth u'd want to spend time on fixing a gnome related issue?05:44
Pygiok, excuse me spike :P05:44
Pyginow I'll go not to bother anyone again05:45
=== Pygi [n=mario@83-131-254-167.adsl.net.t-com.hr] has left #ubuntu-server ["Download]
=== spike shrugs
Valandilooops05:46
spikewhat?05:46
Valandilhmmm feel a little uncomfortable right now...05:47
spikeValandil: u shouldnt at all05:48
Valandilspike: could be... fell like a little boy ;)05:49
spikeValandil: if he cant act differently than a 13teen kid living in a cruel world that doesnt accept him as a 1337 member of motu it's not ur fault05:50
Valandilcould be ;)05:50
Valandilbut more or less I feel anyway like al little boy who opened the door to the great wide world ;)05:51
Valandilbut I have planned to grow up :))05:52
spikeValandil: the best advice I can give u then is get a plan and stick to that. jumping among things like u were gonna do with this gnome keyboard thing is just a waste of time for everybody05:55
spikeValandil: what do u wanna do?05:56
spikeand dont tell me "programming" :)05:56
Valandilspike: I'd like to do some effective work. This has two reasons: I work productive with linux for several years, and I'd like to give something back to community. And second:05:58
ValandilI need some things for my servers, where I put work into. Why should I waste my work only for me? I could give it to others.06:00
Valandilfor this, I need experience in maintaining - and that I don't have06:01
Valandilso I need a mentor or someone like that, who tells me: do this or that, and then You can use it like this, and so on...06:02
spikeValandil: "effective work" is the same as "programming" :)06:02
Valandilspike: not what I meant06:02
ValandilI meant, some work, not only I have benefit from06:03
spikedude, that doesnt mean anything either. what re u talking about? packaging/coding ur own software/tools u use on ur machines?06:04
Valandilif You tell me for example that You need some recherches on some topic, to help Your Project, I wold say: OK, I'll take part06:04
ValandilI just don't know _what_ would be useful06:04
Valandilso the list for fabbione is something I can do, because he told me what he's looking for06:05
segfaultcalm down.06:05
ValandilYou know, all I need is orientation. World of linux / ubuntu is far too wide ...06:05
ValandilI'm as calm as I could be ;)06:06
Valandilsegfault: sorry, didn't want to do flaming in here...06:06
