I also support the dealy for fixes to SCIM especially for CJK and we're improving at a very fast rate everyday and 6 weeks more would be helpful. [10:16] done [10:16] thanks Jerome === |kompensator [n=kompensa@dslb-084-061-201-231.pools.arcor-ip.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [10:16] enyc, === enyc thinks that there will be persons who think/wonder why the _release_ itself needs te be delayed in order to facilitate getting a certificaton/similar... === enyc may be missing something important I didnt understand ;-) [10:17] Please remember to say 'done' when you finished your comment === silbs [n=jane@217.205.109.249] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [10:17] done ;-) === olive1 [n=oliver@222.185.72.167] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [10:17] and don't expect an 'ack' if you /msg me that you have a comment - I will see it === mustard5 [n=mustard5@208.a.001.sop.iprimus.net.au] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [10:18] Frogzoo, you're up [10:18] just like to say that slippages are hardly unknown in this industry. Furthermore, the delay may actually help raise Ubuntu's profile with discussion on /. etc so I don't see the delay as anything but positive - provided this is a once off, and this slippage isn't seen as setting a precedent for further slippages in the future [10:18] done [10:18] thank you Frogzoo [10:18] dholbach, poke [10:18] I speak as member of the Desktop team and since we're going to support the desktop VERY long, we'd be happy to get get GNOME 2.14.2 in, which is scheduled for May 29th. [10:18] As part of the MOTU team I thin that Universe will profit to a high extent from the delayed process, it will give us more time to fix the ~15000 packages. [10:18] done [10:19] pschulz01, you're next === ubijtsa [n=anders@karlsson.force9.co.uk] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [10:19] Re. Certification - does this include hardware vendors? I would support the delay if it ment that Dapper is supported by OEMs and would allow them to supply machines with Dapper pre-installed world wide. [10:19] done [10:19] thank you pschulz01 [10:19] poningru [10:19] my query is is the delay simply wither this will all be polish or will it be actually work as in will the uvf be extended, will doc freeze be extended etc.? [10:19] comment: already stated [10:19] poningru, queries can be adressed later [10:20] done [10:20] bustacap, you're next [10:20] if Dapper is going to be the first "enterprise" release of Ubuntu, will this mean that new apps and patches to existing apps will be integrated into the released version? if so, could the new features that may delay on-time release of Dapper be released as updates further down the track? [10:20] done [10:20] bustacap, that's irrelevant for this meeting [10:20] but thanks for the comment [10:20] Mithrandir, you're next [10:20] While having six more weeks available would have been a good thing, I believe we are so late in the cycle that those six weeks won't buy us very much. We're past UVF, past FF, past UIF so there are only so many things which could be fixed in the available time. Would we roll back freezes or what would happen? [10:20] (done) [10:21] thanks Tollef, pitti: you're up [10:21] It doesn't need to be a '6 weeks or nothing' decision, right? Two weeks would help, too, and this wouldn't disturb dapper+1 so much [10:21] done [10:21] delmonico, you're up [10:21] dholbach was faster about the universe fixing... done ;) [10:21] ok [10:21] seb128, === |kompensator [n=kompensa@dslb-084-061-201-231.pools.arcor-ip.net] has left #ubuntu-meeting ["...] [10:22] Seveas: sec, style typing === jordi [n=jordi@115.Red-213-96-69.staticIP.rima-tde.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [10:22] Usually we have a desktop rather good but lacking some polish and with some little annoyances at differences place that we don't tackle because we are too busy tackling "real" bugs. We are quite bug flooded at the moment too. Some extra delay would allow to make a much better cleanup job and ship an extra GNOME minor revision [10:22] done [10:23] fabbione, you're up [10:23] I personally don't see the press as an issue. We did prove that we can deliver in time already 3 times and we can still do it for dapper. We are proving that we care even more about quality for a long support release. Let's rock and roll for dapper and screw slashdot. [10:23] My only concern is killing 2 weeks of shyness on each release after dapper to ge [10:23] t back on track, but i am sure we can manage that somehow, with a stronger commu [10:23] nity behind us, but still need to be taken into account. [10:23] done. [10:23] gaz00, you're next [10:23] 6 weeks is all fine and good with me, if it means that better QA can be done. Another bug like the debconf one from the other day would be horrible for the public perception, especially after a 6 week delay on a predefined commitment. [10:23] You might be able to get a mulligan for the first time, but the bottom line was that it was out for 5 months before someone pointed it out. [10:24] done [10:24] thank you, JaneW you're up [10:24] My question is around the timings subsequent to this release. If we release late ,what happnes to the timing of the spec writing, dev cycle and release (and naming, can it still be 6.10?) of the next version? [10:24] also I was worried about bad press, but that's been mentioned before [10:24] done. [10:24] thanks Jane, nate_ you're next === harish [n=harish@63.150.137.218] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [10:25] I'm for the delay in that it allows for the certs, which may increase the popularity of ubuntu. My only concern is that if dapper doesn't deliver at the extended release date, that the extra publicity + failure in whatever aspects delayed the release, would = decrease in public opinion of Ubuntu and decrease it's widespread acceptance. We must weigh this risk. [10:25] done === z2274743 [n=andrew@r220-101-137-67.cpe.unwired.net.au] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [10:25] FlannelKing, you're next [10:25] If I forgot anyone: pleas yell at me in a private message [10:26] FlannelKing, ? === CuriousCat [n=CuriousC@58.69.211.14] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [10:26] Hoary's release was met with some animosity regarding whether it was 'finished' or not at the release, my concern is that if we don't delay, the same feeling of problem caused by cutting corners at the last minute will be in Breezy. If we do delay, we have to be certain that we absolutely put out a clean product. [10:26] With the increased coverage recently, I think getting this release to feel finished is key. [10:26] done. [10:26] thanks, robotgeek you're up [10:26] Documentation wise, we are solid for Dapper already. But with some additional time, maybe translations of documentation could be provided at "release time". done [10:27] _mindspin you're up [10:27] <_mindspin> oops, fast, [10:27] <_mindspin> for press relations, I would say that stickkoing too the truth is always the best === chiahsin [n=Jason@61-218-224-188.HINET-IP.hinet.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [10:28] <_mindspin> and if the delay is for quality reasosn we only have to communicate it the right way [10:28] <_mindspin> done [10:28] thank you _mindspin [10:28] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperDelayMeetingProcess [10:28] dolson, you;re up === jdub [n=jdub@ppp121-112.static.internode.on.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting === svaksha [n=svaksha@59.182.15.190] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [10:28] for reference for newcomers === ..[topic/#ubuntu-meeting:Seveas] : Today (Tuesday Mar. 14) 09:00 and 18:00 UTC - Meeting about the proposed delay of Dapper - see http://tinyurl.com/pefoq and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperDelayMeetingProcess === ssh_ [n=chatzill@211.76.134.189] has joined #ubuntu-meeting === olive1 [n=oliver@222.185.72.167] has left #ubuntu-meeting [] [10:29] dolson, please state your comments briefly [10:29] 6 weeks seems like an arbitrary number to me.. why exactly 6 weeks? also if there is a delay now, why not delay all future releases by 1 month, to allow a point release of GNOME X.X.1 or so? done [10:29] thanks Dana [10:29] there's no one on the list anymore except me [10:30] go seveas [10:30] I pm === hw1979 [n=hw1979@tor/session/x-db7fd1c9b1f02d94] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [10:30] Postponing means losing the 6.04 name, which is already heavily used. A lot of documentation would need to be changed [10:30] There already are several post-release plans, I for one am having several tutorial sessions about Ubuntu planned in may, which are especially planned right after dapper release so we can hand out CD's [10:30] 6 weeks is almost 1/4 of the dapper+1 timeframe, not a small piece! This may lead to dapper+1 being postpned and I really don't think it's a good idea to postpone every release, keeping our release schedules close to gnome is a major benefit. [10:30] whiprush, sorry, go ahead === whiprush has a comment, must have not gotten thru [10:30] When I talk about Ubuntu to people I say, "You don't get a seperate 'enterprise edition' and 'blow-up-in-your-face edition', you always get our best for every release." I am concerned that this will set a precedent for lopsidedness in future releases/expectations. [10:30] anyone who did not get called by seveas and who pm's or who now has a comment, please say "i have a new comment" [10:30] I think in light of Fedora's move to 9 month cycles and opensuse's delays that we need to get it over with and make the case to upstream GNOME to move to a 9 month schedule and have Ubuntu just follow that. That's an extra 3 months of QA per future release, not just for Dapper. Done. [10:30] thanks Jorge, raphink-pbook you're up [10:31] hmm ok [10:31] my point is that we're very likely to integrate kde 3.5.2 in dapper [10:31] since it'll be released probably this month [10:31] I don't think we want it to be like kde was in breezy : too young to be stable === tomukas [n=thomas@p54A65C0D.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting === ikitt [n=ikitt@host59-204.pool8255.interbusiness.it] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [10:31] on the othert hand, I think delaying by 6 weeks might be hard to get recent apps in Dapper [10:32] unless we try and keep a very good UVF exception request policy [10:32] I'm afraid we might get late on some major apps [10:32] done [10:32] seveas? [10:32] i have a new comment [10:32] victory747, you're up [10:32] I cannot currently recommend Ubuntu to any of my Chinese friends as Simplified Chinese is a mess in installation, font selection and substitution is ugly, and SCIM does not work out of the box. kubuntu is a complete disaster. [10:32] sabdfl, several new comments waiting [10:32] If Chinese is not fixed for Dapper, I still will not recommend it for my Chinese friends and colleagues. China is a big enough potential market to delay to fix. Done. === _fitz [n=fitz@host130-84.pool82105.interbusiness.it] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [10:33] thank you [10:33] seb128, you're up [10:33] rosetta has just imported dapper packages so we are lagging on translations at the moment, translators could probably use a delay [10:33] done [10:33] robotgeek, go ahead [10:33] about docus using the version, it is not a big deal as we use entities. it's ionly one change [10:33] victory747: we're beating up abelcheung right now. [10:33] done === chuckyp [n=histo@ppp-70-227-0-137.dsl.bcvloh.ameritech.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [10:33] jordi, please stay on topic [10:34] Frogzoo, you're up [10:34] I think the 6 month cycle is worth preserving - 2 releases a year will be well received in the corporate environment. As for the Dapper +1 issue, allowing the 6 weeks slip should mean a lower bar is set for the next release. Also, at this stage, new apps shouldn't be being added. [10:34] done === sHaDe [n=sHaDe@host175-173.pool8260.interbusiness.it] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [10:34] ok - according to my list these were all comments - raise your voice if you still have something to say [10:34] ok, i take it that is the end of the comments?

Have we shot too high? Can we prevent this in the future? Can we apply any of these lessons to the immediate release to cut down the release delay?

[10:52] i agree we don't want to do fedora-style unsupported releases [10:52] all our releases get support and 18 months of security, they are all deployable [10:53] but it's worthus having the ability to do more stable AND less-stable releases [10:53] dapper+1 will be a fun, bring-in-the-bling release, and as a result intrinsically less stable than dapper === minus273 [n=sandy@202.120.61.4] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [10:53] but having dapper lets us say to people who want super-stability "use dapper, we are laying the foundations for the next big wave here, and foundations are usually a bit dirty" [10:54] it'll be warty again ;) === WildTangent [n=justin_@d141-169-31.home.cgocable.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [10:54] sounds sensible to me... [10:54] victory747: getting chinese to work is one of the main goals of the 1l10n sprint which is a contributor to the delay, so i hope you will work with abelcheung to get it to work perfectly for you and your friends === peb__ [n=Pascal@grewebdproxy6.europe.hp.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [10:54] let me know in two weeks if dapper-in-chinese is not A+ grade for you, ok? [10:54] alright [10:54] those are the easy questions [10:55] (as an aside, we are looking for input from the japanese community, so please contact jordi, daf or mvo) [10:55] now we should look at the higher level issues [10:55] sabdfl, victory747: looks like the chinese channel is 'activated' too, they are in #ubuntu-zh [10:56] let's talk about the impact of the delay on the schedule - doc freeze, ui freeze, etc [10:56] mdz, can you comment? ill chair [10:56] do we have representatives from the doc and art teams here today? [10:56] I'd want to confer with them about the details === bustacap is part of doc team === robotgeek is part of the doc team === jsgotangco is docteam [10:56] but the short answer is that we'll take advantage of the delay to allow additional time for dates which are scheduled relative to the final release date === tomukas [n=thomas@p54A65C0D.dip.t-dialin.net] has left #ubuntu-meeting [] [10:57] mdz: so freezes already in place, remain so? [10:57] JaneW: well, the localization changes require revisiting feature freeze, essentially === jono [n=jono@88-107-1-69.dynamic.dsl.as9105.com] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [10:57] hey [10:57] we some specific areas where we are willing to break freeze, like fontconfig (to accommodate chinese / japanese/ korean) [10:57] but we'll treat it more as an exception than a reopening [10:57] mdz: oic === jono knew he would be late [10:57] ok [10:57] so, exceptions rather than a UVF shift [10:57] jono, please don't disrupt the discussions [10:57] Seveas, sorry === Lambi [n=julia@p508E2F08.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has left #ubuntu-meeting ["Kopete] [10:58] bustacap,robotgeek,jsgotangco: if you have any specific feedback or needs regarding the revisions to come, please send them to me via email [10:58] perhaps some additions to certain pieces of doc will need to be made to detail the addition of support for chinese/japanese input.. [10:58] I think the current UVF exception processes are nice and fast (as an answer to raphink's concern) [10:58] mdz: ok.. [10:58] I'll work out the details and send an announcement early next week or so [10:58] so will the name be 6.05/6.06 as the case my be? [10:58] likewise for any other teams who are affected [10:58] i expect some fluidity in SCIM, fontconfig, language-support etc as we push to the new l10n goals [10:59] people who want to coordinate on upcoming l10n changes are welcome to join us in #ubuntu-l10n [10:59] JaneW, seveas: good point on the 6.04 name. we do need to change it, i'm leaning to 6-06. [10:59] 666 :) [10:59] sabdfl, my concern is not just official documentation [10:59] '6.04' is already well-used [10:59] the more help we can get from the community to get the localization improvements correct, the first time, the more time we will be able to spend on QA for dapper [11:00] Seveas: i think we need to remain consistent in our story that the version numbers are year-and-month [11:00] agreed, however I don;t think the 6.04 can be a make/break decision here. [11:00] the doc strings are trivial to change on our side if ints needed [11:00] jsgotangco: +1 [11:00] sabdfl: I think 6.06 is fine, but no reason to more to a "-" [11:01] silbs: :-). I think the decimal interpretation of x.yy has caused some confusion, people want to know "when was 6.00 released" [11:01] that's a separate discussion though === Whatsisname [n=whatsisn@rrcs-67-52-37-209.west.biz.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [11:01] the point for this discussion is the version should reflect release year and month, agreed [11:02] Newcomers: http://ihme.org/~choubaka/meet.log here is a running log of the discussion. It begins from few days prior to this meeting, when I joined this channel, so scroll down to find the actual meeting discussion. [11:02] if dates like UI freeze do get pushed back by TB, then they will not be pushed back for 6 weeks === ..[topic/#ubuntu-meeting:Seveas] : Today (Tuesday Mar. 14) 09:00 and 18:00 UTC - Meeting about the proposed delay of Dapper - see http://tinyurl.com/pefoq and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperDelayMeetingProcess - Live Log: http://ihme.org/~choubaka/meet.log [11:02] isn't the "real deal" later today [11:02] this means we will have long in-freeze time for translations, books (jono :-)) etc === pfarmer [n=pfarmer@62-31-182-78.cable.ubr01.maid.blueyonder.co.uk] has left #ubuntu-meeting ["Leaving"] [11:02] :) [11:02] I'd prefer to stick with 6.04 - allowing the slippage to require extra work seems suboptimum [11:03] ok, ogra and others talked about PR [11:03] we certainly have a good reputation on dates, even in an industry which does not respect them [11:03] and i'm unhappy that we will negatively impact on that [11:03] yeah, the suse article is very bad [11:04] yeah, then its all the more important to stick to whats set [11:04] suse has a good reputation too ... [11:04] we generally go with time-based, where the time is the most important factor [11:04] this works well for our normal releases [11:04] as long as we dont *really rock* with everything else we'll get bad press [11:04] but it's not possible to do both time-based and feature-based goals, they conflict [11:04] In light of the debconf bug, I think a delay might be seen as good by the 'media'. [11:04] meh [11:05] ogra: which means we need all the small things people whine about (WPA, for one) [11:05] Whatsisname, please stick to constructive commenting only === stub [n=stub@gb.ja.99.136.revip.asianet.co.th] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [11:05] Treenaks, exactly [11:05] sabdfl: disagree - structure is the key. [11:05] so, in this case, i think dapper demands that we set an even high bar in quality, and i'm afraid I've introduced a new goal of l10n late [11:05] i bet the debconf thing will pretty much be forgotten soon [11:05] or stuff like screensaver configuration ... etc [11:05] jdub: elaborate? === Sanne [n=Sanne@p548D94F4.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [11:05] i think the pro's outweigh the cons. if we release early, with unpolished os causes more "bad press" than delaying with a polished release [11:05] they will very closely look on missing features [11:05] Whatsisname: it's a huge slip on our part, i doubt it will be forgotten soon, its rather humbling [11:06] ogra: right, we'll have a lot of missing features [11:06] robotgeek: indeed -- short term bad press now vs. long term loss of reputation [11:06] why not do as microsoft does? patch :) [11:06] sabdfl: l10n goal is good to hear. There are some Indic l10n items missing. [11:06] +1 WildTangent === Jobman [n=Jobman@acer4001.rz.ruhr-uni-bochum.de] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [11:06] pitti, thats what i mean ... we cant risk missing features if we delay 6 weeks [11:06] WildTangent, that's done already - and please stick to the topic - the debconf bug is a completely different discussion [11:06] it was a slip up yes but there was a response almost immediatly to it [11:06] ok, so to summarize on the PR position: === vuntz_ agrees with ogra [11:06] sabdfl: i don't believe time-based and feature-based goals conflict, but it requires a structured approach to get right. unfortunately, time-based has often been approached in opposition to feature-based, which is counter-productive. [11:06] no sort of "wait until the third tuesday of the month" or any similar shenanigas [11:07] Seveas: I think WildTangent was suggesting implementing our new feature goals via post-release patches as an alternative to a delay [11:07] Seveas, im talking about the release in general. if its not finished, then finish it later [11:07] - we should message clearly that we are delaying to meet higher standard of quality, testing, l10n, because people want Dapper to be "exceptional" [11:07] WildTangent, my apologies then [11:07] however there are good reasons why we need to do these particular changes prior to release [11:07] +1 mdz [11:07] - we should work hard to make sure that Dapper is , in fact, exceptional [11:07] mdz: what about people on dailup. they get 100 mb updates after 3 weeks? [11:07] WildTangent, "finish it later" is bad news [11:07] Whatsisname, "add it later" is the real point.. [11:07] l10n and Chinese support (and the like) won't help with press, but it will help with people in those places adopting ubuntu [11:07] when it comes to localization, we need to tightly integrate the changes with the installer and live CD environments; that is, these are features which need to go on the final CD images [11:07] sabdfl: furthermore, i don't think this slip should impact dapper+1. ;-) [ultimately, i think this is an exception that can prove our rule, and can be messaged positively.] [11:07] i believe it is important we stick somewhat to our 6 month release cycle [11:08] <_mindspin> finish it the best should be the approach [11:08] jdub, how wouldnt it impact dapper+1 ? [11:08] post-release patches won't work for certification [11:08] bustacap, well, theres going to be "add it later" going on always, whether you delay your release date or not, a good thing in my opinion [11:08] we cant start working on it [11:08] post-release patches can't improve the user experience with the CD images, especially those which go out via shipit [11:08] jdub: am willing to consider making dapper+1 a super-short cycle, would be.... edgy :-) [11:08] is 6 weeks enough time to include a solid SCIM? [11:08] I also obliquely alluded to the timing of the next spec writing sprint to plan and spec Dapper +1. Will we need to shift that out too? [11:08] mdz: very true [11:08] is it possible to release l10n after the release? that would satisfy those who don't need it and wouldn't delay the receiving of it by those who do need it [11:08] didnt think of that [11:08] ogra: shouldn't impact the schedule, sorry. [11:08] mdz: not even to mention that we don't have the manpower to develop two releases [11:08] bustacap: good enough [11:09] JaneW: yes, the dapper+1 spec meeting will take place just after dapper release, not before === terrex [n=capitant@84-122-65-159.onocable.ono.com] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [11:09] ok, thanks [11:09] As someone who works with end users and has to choose between recommending Ubuntu to someone or (with a heavy heart) asking people that don't deal well with "newness" to stick with Windows, polish will help (U|K)buntu compete with Vista. That's very important, since the cost of Vista will be $1 here, just like it is with XP. [11:09] pitti: we do, but not without significant compromises [11:09] nate_: some translations can be updated after release, yes, that's what we have rosetta and language packs for, but some of the plumbing has to be in place at the time of release, which is what we are working on [11:10] sabdfl, ahhh [11:10] from the perspective of someone who has worked as a journalist in the Open Source press for five years, if we release a lower quality Dapper, that will net far worse press than a delay - proposing a delay and focussing the message around 'delaying to improve the quality' will net only minor negative press [11:10] Kream, try making it clear to them that free software will always be free, Windows won't be $1 always [11:10] nate_: translations, yes, but the localization changes we're discussing here are system-level changes, not translations [11:10] i'm sure you've tried [11:10] thanks jono === terrex [n=capitant@84-122-65-159.onocable.ono.com] has left #ubuntu-meeting [] [11:10] can we call an end to the PR discussion? any further comments on that? === vociferous [n=vocifero@port1036.ds1-amb.adsl.cybercity.dk] has left #ubuntu-meeting ["Leaving"] [11:10] the reason a lot of people have chosen Ubuntu over Debian (or other distros) in the strict 6 months release cycle. Slipping on it once and then catching up immediately won't be a problem, but slipping continously will mean lost community support - Ubuntu will be seen as 'just another Debian that takes ages to release' [11:11] so, I'm not currently involved in helping with ubuntu, how can i get involved to help it get finished sooner? [11:11] jono, that will only work if the release is 100% .... not one missing feature etc [11:11] don't you think there's a need for an official 5.10.1 version with bug fixed? [11:11] nate_: check out the "participate" web page on ubuntu.com [11:11] nate_: http://www.ubuntu.com/community/participate (let's try to stay on-topic here) [11:11] GNAM, please stick to the topic [11:11] srry [11:11] ubijtsa: I daresay we've been really strict on release dates, freeze dates etc until now - I can't see it happen to change (just like that). [11:11] GNAM: this evening's TB === WildTangent [n=justin_@d141-169-31.home.cgocable.net] has left #ubuntu-meeting ["Leaving"] === spacey [n=herman@ubuntu/member/spacey] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [11:11] ok, next topic [11:11] let's discuss the idea of "dapper being a different kind of release" [11:11] dholbach: point taken, just voicing concern [11:12] is this the "official community meeting?" i thought it was later [11:12] higher quality, longer support [11:12] how do we communicate that to users? [11:12] Whatsisname: there are two (equal) meetings, to allow for global participation [11:12] ah ok [11:12] how do we stay true to the idea that *every* release is usable, supported, high quality? [11:12] mmm timezones [11:12] maybe integrate a codename into it that will make them ask? like trail it with 'bedrock' [11:12] sabdfl, can the "enterprise" release of Dapper be released alongside Dapper+1 -> it seems there is a lot being thrown into Dapper in the final hours.. [11:12] dapper bedrock, or something [11:12] Whatsisname, 2nd warning: please stay on topic - the meeting is already busy as is === Jobman [n=Jobman@acer4001.rz.ruhr-uni-bochum.de] has left #ubuntu-meeting ["Leaving"] [11:12] sorry :( [11:13] but at the same time, have dapper-style releases that are long term supported and obviously higher-input [11:13] sabdfl: that thing you explained about the foundation and being dirty makes sense to me. [11:13] sabdfl, by calling them enterprise release? === firehare is now known as firehare-away [11:13] yes, 6 months after the dirty foundations are released to clean and release as enterprise [11:13] foundation might convey the wrong meaning and enterprise is overused in my opinion [11:14] Seveas: somewhere on the website i'm quoted as saying "we don't do 'free and nasty' releases with 'pay-for enterprise' releases" :-) [11:14] cornerstone? [11:14] JaneW, I like that [11:14] Having a delay and calling it an enterprise release both mean that dapper must truley be 100% ready after the delay. === svaksha [n=svaksha@unaffiliated/svaksha] has joined #ubuntu-meeting === jeang [n=jeang@dsl-145-33-22.telkomadsl.co.za] has left #ubuntu-meeting [] [11:14] there has been lots of press about Dapper competing with Vista - to get that to users we need to (a) visually identify Dapper is unique and (b) deliver the key features that are lacking such as easily accessing windows disks [11:14] Spec, I don't think 6 weeks is a good enough period to "enterprise" a release [11:14] "3 for your heart, 1 for your heavy metal - ubuntu keeps you on the edge *and* on the air" === ea57h3r0 [i=_tor@tor/session/x-ec415257dbefd7f6] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [11:15] jono: the tricky bit is that for a dapper-style release we can in fact only work on fewer new features if we also want the quality standard to be high [11:15] while doing an "enterprise release" is great, I don't believe everyone in the community is interested in the "enterprise" goal [11:15] jdub, awesome [11:15] so the cool-new-stuff needs to come in early in the meta-cycle (dapper+1, dapper+2) [11:15] jono, I believe Dapper+1 will be the true competitor with Vista (Xgl, etc..) [11:15] vuntz_: i agree [11:15] Ubuntu Cornerstone, or Ubuntu Bedrock, something that conveys a sort of permanance and strength === ealden [n=ealden@203.76.213.221] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [11:15] sabdfl, what about the cool new stuff thats missing in dapper and that we wont deliver ... [11:15] then change for subsequent releases === lionelp [n=lionel@ip-128.net-82-216-65.rev.numericable.fr] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [11:16] i think the six-month "bleeding edge" releases are useful for a LOT of people who want new desktop functionality [11:16] vuntz, I think there is a need for Enterprise out there.. [11:16] and if all our releases we dapper-style, we would lose those users [11:16] sabdfl, agreed - so we need to prioritise features that users are stumped by - as an example instead of focussing on edge cases we need to look at the forums and identify common sources of confusion [11:16] sabdfl, i'm mainly working on the screensaver fron, i get a lot of bashing for th emissing features alreaddy [11:16] sabdfl: remember when we talked about six month release cycles and four version release cycles? i think that's worth coming back to given this experience. [11:16] emphasize that dapper takes ubuntu to a new level [11:16] are we still in control? [11:16] sabdfl, that's good for home users, corporate users want an enterprise edition.. [11:16] Enterprise conveys 'server-class' to me, which has nothing to do with X.. [11:16] sabdfl, and we wont have the features people are asking for, simply because upstream isnt ready for that yet [11:16] enterprise desktop edition [11:16] bustacap: it's not about the need. It's about the community. The community interests might be in conflict with the enterprise goal [11:17] additionally I find giving the adjective "enterprise" to something inplies one is better than the other [11:17] vuntz_, since when are enterprise users not part of the community? [11:17] and IMHO, community is more important than this goal in the long term [11:17] we could use mockingly similar ones to vista? [11:17] if we start delaying dapper+1, the comparisons to vista will only increase ;) [11:17] jono: we do, and we have [11:17] and I think all users should always have the full power of free software at their disposal [11:17] Seveas: since the day when the enterprise users don't even know it's called Ubuntu :-) [11:17] the community seem to be focussed on the home user - ubuntu is good enough quality for use in the corporate environment - where is the backup for the statements for getting it into the business environment.. [11:17] jdub: we can't commit to dapper+4 being another dapper, 'cause we don't know what upstream will be doing in two years [11:17] sabdfl: what about consistently make every fourth release the ultra-stable, deeply QA'd release. most corporates do not want to roll out new releases every six months, they do it every two years, fitting in with the 'every fourth release' of Ubuntu ? [11:17] mdz, exactly, so the delay can continue to refine this integration [11:17] but we can commit to supporting dapper till upstream has another moment of calm [11:18] there is no way to drag Dapper up to be a dramatic competitor to Vista so close to release [11:18] users just want consistancy and better integration [11:18] sabdfl: but we need to aim for a long-term supported release over (at the very least) two cycles [11:18] jono: unfortunately, the broadest issues in those arenas seem to be non-technical problems (software we can't or won't include, for example) [11:18] ubijtsa: +1 [11:18] ubijtsa, my point exactly - 6 month updates to corporate desktops are just not going to happen - it's ludicrous [11:18] <_mindspin> yup [11:18] even if we wanted to use the word "enterprise", we don't realistically reach those expectations anyway - dapper is going to rock as a platform for edge services, specific backend services, workstations and some desktop tasks. === juliux [n=juliux@ubuntu/member/juliux] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [11:19] mdz, sure, and this is where it is essential to hook our fine doc and community resources in === marty [n=marty@203-206-241-200.dyn.iinet.net.au] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [11:19] ubijtsa: we've based the Dapper long-term decision on the convergence of solid and supportable releases coming out of the open source world === pips1 [n=philipp@241-170.1-85.cust.bluewin.ch] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [11:19] ubijtsa, Spec: see my point to jdub, we cant commit to a regular corporate-style release, because it depends on what is going on with kernel, X, gcc, openoffice [11:19] jdub, I think there is a need for an enterprise-quality desktop - not server - to be released shortly.. [11:19] and gnome and kde [11:19] ubijtsa: we don't have control over what happens there, so it's difficult for us to commit to a fixed schedule for such long-term commitments === robotgeek is totally confused right now about all this corporate stuff [11:19] sabdfl, let me ask, how do you see Dapper different to Breezy from the user's perspective? [11:20] if, as ubijtsa suggested, every fourth release is a 'enterprise' release, we could always delay that one release a few months, .06 instead of .04, which would not only give us extra time to finish it, but also set it apart from our normal releases, so people would be able to distinguish higher quality releases, without memorizing names. [11:20] mdz, sabdfl: point taken [11:20] bustacap: we'll ship a long-term supported desktop - but for various reasons, we should not call it 'enterprise' [11:20] jono: fewer "new" features, better polish, better stability, better certifications, longer support [11:20] we're going a bit offtopic people - the current question is 'how to convey that dapper is different but all our releases are good' [11:20] jdub, however it is denoted, the long-term supported desktop needs to be supported in other ways as well, other than the current "support" offered.. [11:20] i'm thinking we should call it 6-06 LS (for "long support"). something in the version number to distinguish it would help [11:21] where does our server edition fall into place here??? [11:21] sabdfl, and release the LS version at a later date [11:21] sabdfl, so Dapper is less a dramatic new release and instead more refinement, better integration and the solidification of edge services? I suspect our users expect that to - they look at the changes from warty to hoary to breezy and expect similar things for dapper [11:21] sabdfl: -1 [11:21] jsgotangco: VLS :-p [11:21] jsgotangco: same thing, different install media === nalioth [n=Apple@ubuntu/member/pdpc.bronze.nalioth] has left #ubuntu-meeting [] [11:21] jono: just can't have crack and crisp in the same release [11:21] I think the versioning should stay consistent, always. (Year.Month) [11:22] Spec: yes, agree, im proposing the LS as a way of distinguishing 6-06 from 6-10 for people who are Not In The Know. [11:22] reading on the forums, the end-user community seem to be 90% in favor of the delay - and a lot of them seem to think that it means they'll get WPA and other features added in. I think if it is delayed and the new features aren't added, they will be disenchanted with Dapper [11:22] sabdfl, exactly, and I think users are less after crack and just want better refinement and stability, which is exactly what Dapper has had so far [11:22] I think the change in the versioning should be enough to convey the meaning of long support/stability [11:22] 6.06 Milestone - released 3 months after Dapper is released [11:22] dolson: we could take WPA if we got community contributions of packages that Just Work and pass review [11:23] soon [11:23] why not just use 6-00? it's not conflicting with year.month, but does signify a big change? [11:23] sabdfl, argh, please don't tempt me... [11:23] gaz00: that implies a 6th release [11:23] by change I mean 6.04 -> 6.06 [11:23] I think bikeshedding over the version number is not the best possible use of time right now [11:23] gaz00: we've debated release numbering schemes extensively; there was a recent mailing list thread about it. let's not rehash that here [11:23] Seveas: tempt you to make high quality packages? that's *exactly* what i'm doing :-) [11:23] ok [11:23] mjg59: point [11:24] ok, any other suggestions as to how we can make the dapper release distinct? [11:24] why we can make 2 releases? one 6.04 for the normal users and one for the enterprise version? [11:24] I think a key to the point that should be made is that dapper is a culmination of things learned from warty/hoary/breezy. [11:24] juliux|cebit: because we can't maintain branches [11:24] dolson: we have been very explicit and specific about the reasons for the delay [11:24] I don't think that much is obvious with dapper so far. [11:24] sabdfl, I think a visually distinct release is essential [11:24] dholbach, the second version can be and update for the firste one [11:24] I think most people think it's just another cycle. [11:24] dapper needs to look different and exciting [11:24] "3 for your heart, 1 for your heavy metal - ubuntu keeps you on the edge *and* on the air" [11:24] and this is happening [11:24] jono yeah i was thinking something visual too [11:24] juliux|cebit: we did consider branching, 6.04 on time and then a later "LS" release, but we don't have the resources [11:24] jono, it's orange already [11:24] juliux|cebit: that essentially doubles our QA effort, which is critical-path === jsgotangco will just wait for the new freeze dates to come [11:24] like a different theme or something for one [11:25] Does the Ubuntu community have sufficient resources for an _additional_ corporate release, on top of the current 2 releases a year? [11:25] Seveas, heh [11:25] Frogzoo, no [11:25] I know they don't want to stray from the normal naming convention as well so thats probably out [11:25] mdz: yes, but the community doesn't seem to listen all the time. despite me saying it a few times to them, they still say things like "I'm in favor we need WPA" and such. so.. I hear ya, but end-users don't understand this [11:25] dolson, ++ [11:25] Just as a point from being a Ubuntu user, advocate and fan for over 18 months (but not a developer) I have just found out in this meeting that the version number is year.month. my guess is that 80% also are blissfully ignorant [11:25] if dapper was to be released with a really unique and eye catching visual theme, it would automatically be seen as unique [11:25] dolson: ++ [11:25] that is exactly what novell have done with SLED [11:25] Kamion, sabdfl but the problem is that every normal people think that the next version is released in april and not in june [11:25] XGL itself is revolutionary enough to make anyone think a computer running it is 'enterprise class', but that's not ready yet. [11:25] dolson: can you get working on WPA packages with seveas? [11:25] yes, I think it needs to be made clear that the delay doesn't mean Your Pet Feature(tm) will be in. === ogra has ringing ears about "screensavers are not configurable" [11:26] haha [11:26] sabdfl, no - I have no time - my graduation is in the way of that [11:26] sabdfl: I don't have any need of the package, I'm just speaking in interest of combatting negative word-of-mouth [11:26] dolson: ok, well spread the word that a contribution will make it happen [11:26] that will bite back if we delay and dont have it ... but upstream isnt ready to include irt [11:26] Spec, off-topic - but Xgl definately would not go on any of my corporate desktops [11:26] sabdfl: I can't work on it, as I don't hav any way to test it. but I will do that [11:26] ok [11:26] dolson: the process by which we set our development goals is incredibly transparent; there should be no surprises. not sure what more we could do there, but we're straying from the topic a bit [11:26] ok [11:27] I *think* that's all the major issues that were raised [11:27] anybody else have a broad topic that needs discussion? [11:27] the new freeze dates? [11:28] we'll just wait them [11:28] How/When are you/we going to decide about whether to delay or not? [11:28] Is it definite that if a delay takes place, dapper+1's release will be early? [11:28] Spec: it can only be on time or late. ;-) [11:28] will there be a vote after the meeting later, or just a general consensus feeling after both sittings? [11:28] Spec, that has been answered already: there might be a delay for dapper +1 and +2, but that's not sure [11:28] err, on time = short cycle [11:28] Spec: it will be less than six months after dapper, only question is how much less [11:28] G0SUB: not finalized yet; I've solicited feedback via email [11:29] ok [11:29] not broad, but one glaring problem with Dapper is that it does not seem to detect Windows partitions easily - this is a showstopper for many of clients - they don't know what an /etc/fstab is and don't want to know [11:29] jono +1 [11:29] jono: if you can get some guys from the community that you trust to put together patches on that front they will get high level review, i can promise that much [11:29] jono: we're not here to discuss random feature ideas for Dapper; we have specific goals in mind which we feel justify a delay, no more [11:29] the installer should detect this [11:29] well someone needs to step up and develop free ntfs write support [11:29] mdz, ok === ogra thinks thats sad, we wont build mdz's birthday present anymore ... [11:29] jono: I'm familiar with that problem [11:29] Kamion, :) [11:30] Whatsisname: that and a pony :-) [11:30] now [11:30] lol [11:30] jono: talk with me about it later once I'm out from under this security thing [11:30] Kamion, ok [11:30] thank you all, i think that's a good discussion [11:30] (ntfs write support is available in dapper already) [11:30] sabdfl: ponies for the whole distro team! [11:30] TB, CC, anybody care to comment now? [11:30] Mithrandir++ [11:30] Kamion: when you're out from under this security thing, you're back under your previous workload ;-) [11:30] cool === pontifex [n=pontifex@84-45-197-14.no-dns-yet.enta.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [11:30] Seveas: free write support? [11:30] sabdfl: Final decision still falls to the TB? [11:30] captive? [11:30] ogra: dude, dapper was going to be released on my birthday. this is a complete sham. ;-) === Xalior [i=darran@georgina.xalior.com] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [11:30] jdub, gah [11:31] jdub: well, in that case, i see no reason for a delay... [11:31] mjg59: no, CC, but TB gets to break down the extra time on different schedule freezes [11:31] Ok === vuntz_ has a last question: does it change the date of the prerelease? === z4k4ri4 [n=zakaria@222.124.92.203] has left #ubuntu-meeting [] [11:31] I'm going to wait until the next round of discussion before making up my mind, I think [11:31] vuntz_, good point [11:31] vuntz_: TB decision [11:32] thanks for listening to the community, see ya [11:32] CC, TB, done? [11:32] sabdfl, how about making an almost-there release apri 20 and call for wide testing? [11:32] I'm still rather concerned about the PR impact and loss of the reputation we've built up; think it has to be handled with considerable sensitivity [11:32] Seveas: +1 [11:32] Seveas: definitely, will call for wide testing of the first Flight that has everything we want in it [11:32] Kamion++ [11:32] Kamion: ditto [11:32] a lot of people are expecting the prerelease to be out really soon now [11:32] if the decision was made to delay, a well-written, well-distributed press release should follow [11:32] we made a delay before if i remember right? but its just 2 weeks i think [11:33] <_mindspin> the pr thing means, that dapper should be nearly perfect [11:33] haha @ _mindspin [11:33] Kamion: would it help if TB and CC all have to sign off on the communication of this? [11:33] <_mindspin> ;-) [11:33] I've weighed in already, but for public record...I recommended a 6-week delay as the best way to achieve the new localization goals and to give us more breathing room for stabilization [11:34] sabdfl: certainly the more eyes on it the better [11:34] kamion +1 [11:34] ok, thanks Easterners, we'll catch the Westerners at 18:00 UTC [11:34] right, thanks for hearing my thoughts folks, I best get back to working [11:34] vuntz_: the announcement of the proposal for a delay was widely publicized, and the final announcement of a new release date will be even more so [11:34] sabdfl, thanks for listening to us === nate- [n=nate@68-190-90-101.dhcp.mdsn.wi.charter.com] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [11:34] cheers for the consultation [11:34] Thanks for the courtesy everyone. That was well handled for a 200-strong group. [11:34] if the decision is made by the entire Ubuntu community, the delay can't really be too negative - everyone was invited to comment on it, and while I'm not in favor of a delay, I think the PR should mention that it was concensus [11:34] I've never seen a CEO take the community this serious [11:34] Seveas: thank you for your huge contribution [11:34] cheers [11:35] sabdfl++ [11:35] oh it's over [11:35] dolson, for now [11:35] <_mindspin> hehe [11:35] sabdfl, good job, there :) [11:35] dolson: you can join again, later :) [11:35] sabdfl: you rock! and Ubuntu rocks with you :) [11:35] :-) [11:35] dolson: next one in a few hours [11:35] there will be another meeting at 18:00 UTC [11:35] thanks guys === ogra gives Seveas a cookie [11:35] We will be better prepared for that [11:35] ogra, don't [11:35] i just want to say, as a community member, that I have complete confidence in the ubuntu team and that I will trust whichever conclusion you reach. [11:35] robotgeek: it's 5:37am and I didn't sleep yet. I don't know I can be here :) [11:35] cheers all, see some of you again this evening, thanks for taking the time to weigh in === ubijtsa calls for a round of applause for sabdfl et al [11:35] dolson: same here :) [11:35] Seveas, no space cookie :) [11:35] I have a dentist appointment at 3:30 UTC :/ === artoj [i=ajonsson@kapsi.fi] has left #ubuntu-meeting [] [11:35] meetings like this is why ubuntu rocks. thanks everyone!

It shows that ubuntu us concerned with turning out the best possible product. Am looking forward to the next release [11:36] I'll try to write a summary of this meeting before the next one takes place === CuriousCat gives Seveas ice cream for job well done.

[07:05] I think that a lot of communities and LUG have already scheduled an Install Party for Dapper. (My LUG, for example). [07:05] I tought we will then only install Breezy but nobody in my LUG does agree with me ! Everyone want to, to a degree or another, allow people to install a "beta" or to dist-upgrade. (The party was originaly announced as an install/upgrade party) [07:05] People think that it can't be that wrong but installing a non-stable release for non-geek people will, IMHO, gives a very bad opinions about Ubuntu (I just have an example in current dapper). I will do my best to convince people to not upgrade but I'm sure it will happens a lot and for a lot of beginners around the world. Even close friends with a strong Ubuntu knowledge are trying to convince me that it's better to install pre-dappe === _jason [n=jasonr@dhcp0534.hrn.resnet.group.upenn.edu] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [07:05] r than breezy because they are convinced that the 6 weeks delay is only "cosmetic things". === simon2 [n=simon@80.196-200-80.adsl.skynet.be] has joined #ubuntu-meeting === MonkeyBoy [n=Mat@weeble.plus.com] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [07:06] please say "done" when you finished your comment! [07:06] I think that this problem is a serious issue and that the "symbolic beta release" suggested in the first meeting must be more than a symbolic beta release so we can install it and have a wider hardware testing field. [07:06] If it's not possible, would it be possible to have an "official recommandation" or something that says "do not try this at home kids". === Marsmoensch [n=terrorsq@149-203-116-85.dsl.manitu.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [07:06] done === pinkisntwell [n=pink@ppp31-adsl-234.ath.forthnet.gr] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [07:06] thanks ploum === frodon [n=frodon@lns-bzn-29-82-64-239-9.adsl.proxad.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [07:06] hardawayd, [07:06] you're up [07:06] First i would highly recommend the delay--dapper will be judged by my contacts--companies etc. against Novell and Redhat and it needs to be the best it can. Also, for a year now i have been waiting for an easy interface to use with xsupplicant so wireless connections can be made at my university. students now use windows and are willing to change but there has to be an easy interface to put in the peap-eap , mschapv2 [07:06] parameters. If the delay would mean that that could be accomplished it would be great. === LeonWP [n=leon@wikipedia/leonwp] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [07:06] done [07:06] hi [07:06] hi === ronmarley1 [n=rgoodwin@198.30.10.253] has joined #ubuntu-meeting === Alexandre [n=Alexandr@20151182179.user.veloxzone.com.br] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [07:07] thanks hardawayd [07:07] Kamion, [07:07] hardawayd: the delay is proposed in order to achieve very specific goals, not as a general extension of the feature freeze [07:07] I'm concerned about keeping staff in crunch mode for an extra six weeks; I think productivity is going to take a hit through sheer tiredness. [07:07] Pushing the release to after debconf means that either we won't be able to get any significant benefit from attending debconf, or productivity for that chunk of time will be significantly reduced. [07:07] Once we take the above into account, I question whether we'd get all that much more done in six weeks than we would in two. === gregp [i=greg@81.218.52.92] has joined #ubuntu-meeting === Yvan [n=Yvan@207.67.194.2] has joined #ubuntu-meeting === denisbr [n=c887e701@yossman.net] has left #ubuntu-meeting [] === Deriel [n=mmarino@201-27-37-252.dsl.telesp.net.br] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [07:08] Anyone who wants to comment: To fulfill mdz' request: msg me your comments too!

So, for example, localisation will become something that people will focus on because the delay was to make it better. Hence it has to be good. [07:09] done [07:09] thank you - cyphase is up [07:09] While initially I didn't want the delay (I wanted Dapper now! :P), I think that the delay is a good idea, although 6 weeks seems like a lot. A month might be better. [07:09] Along with the proposed changes, we should use the time to make sure there are absolutely no hardware regressions. Seems several cards that used to work with ndiswrapper are having many problems now. [07:09] Lastly, as mentioned in the first meeting, there should be something in the releases name that indicates it's special. Maybe it could be something like "Ubuntu 6.04: A Polished Edition" :) [07:09] Done === dippie [n=void@i115051.upc-i.chello.nl] has joined #ubuntu-meeting === littlepaul [n=littlepa@p5084CB95.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [07:10] ok, FunnyLookinHat [07:10] I think that errors/bugs found much later than releases, such as the root password flaw discovered in breezy a few days ago, are a good reason to delay the release by 6 weeks. This release is the first "Corporate" release and should have extra care taken to make sure all is set to make a good impression and product. [07:10] All of that to take into effect, into addition the fact that Supplicant needs to be supported and stable. It's a very important feature for College users who needs wireless with WPA support as already stated. [07:10] done. === pdc [n=pdc@cpe-065-191-096-166.nc.res.rr.com] has left #ubuntu-meeting ["Ex-Chat"] [07:10] thanks FunnyLookinHat - next up is highvoltage [07:10] please skip comments that have already been raised by others === iGotNoTime [n=iGotNoTi@cpe-24-210-183-207.woh.res.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu-meeting === Half-Left [n=Half-Lef@cpc3-mapp3-6-1-cust178.nott.cable.ntl.com] has joined #ubuntu-meeting === jasay [n=jasay@c-71-198-189-148.hsd1.ca.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [07:11] Kamion, I'm filtering as much as I can - it's hectic here === Jack_copp [n=Jack_cop@216.141.127.38] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [07:11] for the record, the delay is entirely unrelated to the recently-publicized security vulnerability; the proposal was made before it was known in fact [07:11] highvoltage, ? [07:11] sure. === sivang is here as all [07:11] hi Seveas. I have one argument that counts for both against and for the postponement. [07:11] I work on the tuXlabs project, where we have 200 computer labs set up in schools in south africa, we have put in a huge amount of planning to get the dapper edubuntu release rolled out in May (month after dapper release). [07:11] The postponement throws us out to a large extent. On the other hand, we really *need* a very stable release, so we would rather have a later, better release and be inconvenienced, if it means that we can provide a better system to the benefactors. [07:11] i think there may be other, similar projects that have planned around the date too, but quality is always a top priority. [07:12] done; === simosx [i=Simos@134.83.157.131] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [07:12] thanks highvoltage - Tonio_ you're up [07:12] (edubuntu could get hard frozen on time) === kb00heda [n=david@ct30.elmagn.chalmers.se] has left #ubuntu-meeting [] [07:12] the actual schedule for kde 3.5.2 is a few days/weeks before dapper relase, and reporting it would help for a better kde integration, cause 3.5.1 still has lots of bugs === toma [n=chatzill@c-67-176-60-190.hsd1.co.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [07:12] some majors like kdeprint doesn't work etc... === NetGeek [n=dbasinge@stffp11-208.staff.library.utah.edu] has joined #ubuntu-meeting === Shaydee [n=shade@p549FDDA4.dip.t-dialin.net] has left #ubuntu-meeting ["Leaving"] === Xanadu [n=blah@wbs-196-2-104-228.wbs.co.za] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [07:13] that's why I would vote for the new release date, cause kubuntu isn't as mature as ubuntu in it's actual state [07:13] done [07:13] thank you Tonio_ === yellowbubble [i=yellowbu@d194-157-251-17.elisa-laajakaista.fi] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [07:13] janimo, === tazman_ [n=tazman@tdnet146-195.teledomenet.gr] has joined #ubuntu-meeting === Acandor2000 [n=Acandor2@adsl-214-110-192-81.adsl.iam.net.ma] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [07:13] delay good, more time for xfce polish for xubuntu [07:13] done === simosx is now known as simosx2 === tucoz [n=martin@rockbox/developer/tucoz] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [07:13] ok, last on my list is raphink [07:14] We see on the users mailing lists that more and more users are wanting to switch to Dapper. People are eager to test it, but some don't want to take the risk to use a distro not frozen yet. I'm thinking many people might be deceived to have to wait 6 more weeks, which is about 1/5 of the total dev time.

[07:15] we're still in the process of specifying the functionality [07:15] sivang, yes [07:15] 1) I would like to be able to include UPBackup (Home User Backup) in ubuntu dapper and this extension might make this possible. a package will be shortly uploaded soon to universe to show where this is going. [07:15] (there are new /msg'es flowing in) [07:15] 2) From the ISV certification, this extension will allow to to push the certification a bit further and do more testing / integration. as I helped with DB2 and intend to help on for dapper, I therefor support it. [07:15] Speaking on behalf a company that is working towards a POS-retail distribution with Ubuntu, we are more than comfortable with a few week delay. What is the worst case scenario, time wise?

[07:17] ompaul, go [07:17] hardawayd: we evaluated NetworkManager for Dapper, which would likely give us WPA, but it's not ready [07:17] Thanks Seveas Simple point, if we get all these extra l10n items into Dapper then when it becomes 6.X or 6-X the new possible long support base is going to be huge, should on the other hand this not happen then when is then l10n to get a long life version why are we restricting the Human Linux to some Humans? [07:17] hardawayd: no, WPA was never a stated goal for Dapper, and as far as I know there were no developers working on it during the cycle [07:17] done [07:17] sabdfl, isn't it in main? === mode/#ubuntu-meeting [+b %cyphase!*@*] by Seveas === apachelogger [n=Harald@amarok/rokymotion/apachelogger] has joined #ubuntu-meeting === anto9us [n=anthony@ipv6.butes.org] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [07:17] thanks ompaul [07:17] Xanadu, you're up === Howdy125 [n=Howdy125@c-67-183-90-171.hsd1.wa.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting === Florob [n=Florian@xdsl-213-196-247-40.netcologne.de] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [07:18] Xanadu, now is last on the list of *new* comments [07:18] ta some comments to the Tectonic site from Ubuntu users (thought they should be heard) [07:18] Posted by Ubuntu User [07:18] They should stay on course with the release on April 20th! [07:18] Change the dates and the support (because hey, they are going to really need another 6 months to get it up... and don't do CDs for this release (only take pre-orders for Full release when it comes out.ll in 45 days or 90 days? [07:18] Call the April release " Fetal DAPPER " and when they got it ready - call it Baby Dapper , then do a bug fixed version called Dapper Flys! [07:18] And print the CDs based on DapperFlys version version! That would be the supportable 5yr version and the final release target! [07:18] However, all networking and basic appa (like Edubuntu default install of 2 NICs vs just 1 NIC) should be in place for April 20 "Fetal" release. All the extras Mark is taking about could come in Baby Dapper, and then declare a party for DapperFly (at last)and release a CD version based on that (hey, it could be fall before this is ready to FLY, given the historic way that some programming issues are resolved... I have seen more release d === unf [n=unf@ZMMMDCXL.dsl.saunalahti.fi] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [07:18] ates pushed back and push back and that is as frustrating as anything...)! [07:18] Fetal Dapper [07:18] Baby Dapper [07:18] Sounds like a sane and not unusual approach to a rather common issue with operating systems. Hopefully the community has some sense of marketing and will appreciate his concern for delaying the Dapper release, after all this is a major release and one shouldn't start walking before a having had a good crawl around the office first.

[07:27] in my opinion the 6 week delay is way too long. many new users to linux have been waiting for the day it's released and the delay of a month and a half stinks too much of certain other companies.

[07:29] since we're speaking about polishing.. what about i18n/l10n updates? are they going to be accepted during this delay? for example, russian kubuntu is in a pretty crappy state, being ~70% english [07:29] in the absence of an organised community effort, it will not happen in Dapper, but is feasible in Dapper+1 [07:30] sagarab: the targets were laid out in the email proposing the delay === sbartleylinux [n=sbartley@66-78-202-130.lasvegas.smartcity.com] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [07:30] Danster: yes, l10n is open throughout [07:30] sabdfl, check this thread http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=139334&highlight=NetworkManager, nm packages that support wpa and work for me are in there [07:30] Danster, that is ongoing work and yes, l10n polish is high priority [07:30] just out of interest, which parts of dapper would be in more need of the six-week delay?

[07:36] why not release preflight on 20th and make it clear to the "community" that it's what would have been released on that date, and to expect big update if they can't wait 6 weeks.

[07:42] ploum: i expect that dapper will be very stable (as stable as breezy) by april 20 [07:42] (In Costa Rica, in case that's important) === agorf [n=agorf@unaffiliated/paramount] has left #ubuntu-meeting [] [07:42] sbartleylinux: i expect dapper to be in very good shape in english by the dates you were expecting it === tiefox [n=giovanni@200.208.130.3] has joined #ubuntu-meeting === ppd [n=max@dslb-084-056-019-132.pools.arcor-ip.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [07:42] so will there be another flight by that point even if the final release isn't ready? [07:42] it seems to me the best solution would be to release a stable preview in time and then a final six weeks later [07:42] sbartleylinux: do you touch kernel, libc, X, or gnome? [07:42] ok, so I don't have to cancell the install party of paris === aamukahvi [n=toni@hoas-fe1add00-126.dhcp.inet.fi] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [07:43] seveas: but why release "baby dapper" if the community fully understands the need for the delay? it will only confuse people [07:43] sabdfl: then it should be enough. Thank you for your answer. Will it be possible to have an ISO image of a "guaranteed" pre-dapper on that date ? [07:43] sabdfl, no. === tom_ [n=tom@p54974B54.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [07:43] sabdfl, what is the issue with updating the installer after the release to include the other languages? [07:43] ploum: what sort of guarantee are you looking for? [07:43] sbartleylinux: what packages do you modify in the underlying OS of your product? [07:43] sabdfl: do you expect large update volumes for such an install? I consider installing on a modem-connected machine. === rfbees [n=rfb@domesticus.demon.nl] has left #ubuntu-meeting [] [07:43] ploum: your use of 'guarantee' in context of OSS worries me... [07:44] mdz: you can install this image as you would have with breezy [07:44] nothing more than that [07:44] schlurchz: possibly, because even a small oo.o change is a big download [07:44] natroll: the installer will be included on a rather large number of CDs which can't be updated after the release === rekrutacja [n=rekrutac@con154.neoplus.adsl.tpnet.pl] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [07:44] sabdfl: will the Chinese and other extra language support be installed as a base package? === Deb [n=leila@122.225.146.195.dynamic.adsl.abo.nordnet.fr] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [07:44] sabdfl: thx [07:44] ploum: breezy is stable and will receive only critical updates; we can't say the same of dapper on 20 april [07:45] hello [07:45] Xanadu: we will work towards out of the box support, but probably not on the CD === Highlander [n=highland@201.153.19.13] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [07:45] Xanadu: no, but they need to be installed for chinese users [07:45] what reason is there not to update cd's after an inital release? [07:45] sabdfl, We add some things to xorg for configs only. Not really anything else that I can think of and nothing that I would say is modified. [07:45] mdz: It's not what I'm trying to say.

[07:45] natroll: also rebuilding some bits of the installer after release is non-trivial; for instance it is not susceptible to language-pack-based updates === malte` [n=malte@host-84-220-10-155.cust-adsl.tiscali.it] has joined #ubuntu-meeting === Deb [n=leila@122.225.146.195.dynamic.adsl.abo.nordnet.fr] has left #ubuntu-meeting ["Quitte"] [07:45] sbartleylinux: please discuss with infinity your specific case, he will know better whether you may have issues [07:46] giftnudel: we ship large numbers of CDs worldwide [07:46] I have been using dapper since flight2, with no serious problems. So why would I need "bady dapper"? [07:46] sabdfl, will do. thanks. [07:46] giftnudel: cost, QA time [07:46] Xanadu: the langpacks let us update translations after release, but not things like input methods or keyboards [07:46] unf; do you mean for 'baby dapper' to mean more than a flight delivered on/about 4/20? [07:46] ok, I see [07:46] ok, any other large-scale deployment impacts? [07:46] unf: (it's more about satisfying other users who are expecting an ubuntu release in april, and bringing on more people for testing.) [07:46] Xanadu, and languages packs take much place in a CD [07:46] sabdfl and pitti: then english users won't see huge downloads later if they run preview release [07:47] Xanadu: they might: kernel, xorg, libc, will all be getting small fixes and stability, but that means package downloads [07:47] at least for the language stuff [07:47] Xanadu: they will, many packages will be updated until the final release [07:47] it should be safe to wait till release, then update in one go [07:47] sabdfl: perhaps, one last time, it might be worth using the word 'preview' again :-) [07:47] sabdfl: they'll get those anyway, right? [07:48] Kamion, I understand that issue, but I guess I fail to understand the significance of the installer supporting the different languages for those who don't require those languages. I can understand the delay in being able to order the cds by those who require unsupported languages...i guess the logistics of selecting which cds to order would be terrible too...hmm.. [07:48] jdub: yes, we can discuss the full schedule [07:48] ok, next big topic [07:48] kamion's [07:48] what will the effect of a dapper delay be on dapper+1? === e2k [n=e2k@dsl-hkigw8-fe05f800-164.dhcp.inet.fi] has left #ubuntu-meeting [] [07:48] sabdfl, little bit offtopic: we are starting free textbooks (http://www.wolnepodreczniki.pl/, but it's just an ugly "we will be here in the future" page) project in Poland and right now we are creating tools for community. we would like to re-use ubuntu code of conduct (http://www.ubuntu.com/community/conduct) but we are not sure what is legal status of this text. === roshan_ [n=roshan@203.101.1.116] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [07:48] jdub: +1 I think 'preview' makes sense; because the feature set will change, just more things will _work_ by release === mordof [n=mordof@69.49.45.171] has left #ubuntu-meeting ["Leaving"] === coffeewoman [n=anno@ti211310a080-13910.bb.online.no] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [07:48] rekrutacja, please ask another time [07:48] (household notice: more l10n discussions, offtopic talk or other rambling ban) [07:49] Burgwork, OK [07:49] s/will/will not/ [07:49] rekrutacja, ask on #ubuntu maybe === Erlang [i=neumann@toronto-HSE-ppp4000837.sympatico.ca] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [07:49] rekrutacja: afterwards, ok? === SDPlissken [n=Snake@cpe-68-173-223-72.nyc.res.rr.com] has left #ubuntu-meeting ["Leaving"] [07:49] sabdfl, OK' === vicks [n=vicks@c-dd8870d5.037-42-67626719.cust.bredbandsbolaget.se] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [07:49] current thinking on dapper+1 is we should delay 2-3 weeks [07:49] sabdfl: from what i've heard the best plan would be shortening the time for dapper+1, +2, and +3 two weeks each === derrick81787 [n=derrick@hh-2-63.flexabit.net] has left #ubuntu-meeting [] [07:49] sabdfl++ [07:50] the "action plan" for dapper+1 is that it will be bottom-up "find awesome tech and bring it in" rather than top-down "these are the things we need" [07:50] even 4 ... === jdub suggests shipping edgy precisely on the six month schedule mark. reduce goals to suit. strongly demonstrate the commitment to our schedule. [07:50] do you mean 2-3 weeks on top of the usual 6 months? or 2-3 weeks on top of the original release date (6 months from the original release date of Dapper) [07:50] sabdfl: what's wrong with just having dapper+1 six months after dapper? just have a one-time bump and don't try to make up the lost time [07:50] jdub, ++ [07:50] jdub, +1 [07:50] I like jdub's plan, but we need to be absolutely brutal about goals at the next conference [07:50] jdub, ++ [07:50] Kamion, hire fabbione as guard [07:51] jdub++ [07:51] jdub++ [07:51] in other words, the team will have something of a sabbatical from the tyrrany of sabdfl-imposed specs :-) [07:51] yaaar: pushes it a long way after the GNOME release [07:51] jdub +1 [07:51] Kamion: to be fair, we've gotten _much_ better wrt number of goals this time around. [07:51] sabdfl, +1 [07:51] Mithrandir: you might have, mr. early-goals-achiever :-P [07:51] agree with yaaar - if you go completely out of sync with 6 months enterprise guys can't plan as well [07:51] Kamion: so it could work. [07:51] yaaar: we want to be close to Gnome releases again [07:51] because its nice that ubuntu is the first and best place to get new gnome goodness [07:51] we want to recapture that [07:51] ++ [07:51] sabdfl++ === Danster [i=dan@ip-212-57-173-6.dialup.surnet.ru] has left #ubuntu-meeting [] === Metaltron [n=Metaltro@66.81.225.240] has joined #ubuntu-meeting === leon [n=leon@71-231.surfsnel.dsl.internl.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [07:52] sabdfl: however - fedora is shipping FC5 final very close to 2.14 release date. we ship our final one month later. [07:52] sabdfl: more developers.. i think that's the need [07:52] I was hoping the dapper+1 would be straight back on track. with Dapper out, the need for a *really* stable release should be catered for I'm expecting/hoping that dapper+1 be a scramble for features and to sync back to GNOME. It shows that Ubuntu can stick to a predictable release cycle and only makes exceptions when /really/ require. A delayed Edgy effectively means a year to get back on track (50% of Ubuntu's existance) which is somewhat harder to === beefsprocket [n=beefspro@HSE-Ottawa-ppp323327.sympatico.ca] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [07:52] so surely dapper+1 will suffer without the 6 months devel time [07:52] I would like to remember that on 20 March Fedora Core 5 will be released....this delay might not shift some user from Ubuntu to fedora ? [07:52] sabdfl, the way I see it: Dapper is the culmination of 2 years of hard work by a growing number of people. Dapper+1 will start a new cycle which can start 'slowly' ie with less features === Jergar [n=wrj@pD9581AC2.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [07:53] Lele_ete, completely irrelevant [07:53] Kamion: do you think its realistic to reduce features for dapper+1 substantially?

[07:53] yaaar, tomorrow [07:53] Lele_ete: we will continue to make Ubuntu the best distribution we can, and users will decide based on that [07:53] sabdfl: I don't see why not, if we're careful [07:53] Seveas: oh, i knew that...i mneant the one after that === pkiduf [i=gggfffvv@dynamic-216-211-6-162.tbaytel.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [07:53] yaaar: 6 months from tomorrow is 2.16 [07:53] i will be on a very tight leash, promise [07:53] *DRAFT* 2.16 release schedule: http://live.gnome.org/TwoPointFifteen [07:53] just, maybe, one or two new architectures... [07:54] later [07:54] sabdfl: a problem is that we've been saying that dapper is going to be boring, while Edgy Elephant is going to be shiny&bling.

[09:02] I'd like to get away soon, but I'm early on the agenda anyway [09:02] Kamion: let's do you first then, as I think we have a few candiates today === Metaltron [n=Metaltro@66.81.225.240] has joined #ubuntu-meeting === S3Indiana [n=Ken@207.67.194.2] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [09:02] floor is yours [09:02] i think the first topic is a no brainer [09:02] "Should we produce new installer and CD images for this [WWW] serious installer vulnerability? At present, users installing Breezy must make sure to upgrade from -security before adding any other local users, which I think will result in a number of vulnerable systems in practice. On the other hand, it's not as if we can rev shipit CDs at this point." [09:02] link being http://www.ubuntu.com/usn/usn-262-1, in case anyone somehow managed to miss it [09:03] Kamion, I wanted to ask that too in todays meeting === S3Indiana [n=Ken@207.67.194.2] has left #ubuntu-meeting ["Leaving"] === SuperSack56 [n=Matt@hh-1-189.flexabit.net] has left #ubuntu-meeting [] [09:03] so, we regained a fair bit of the enormously bad press from the vulnerability by doing a same-day fix [09:03] a number of people asked whether we'd be making updated images available === cyphase [n=cyphase@ppp-69-233-32-59.dsl.pltn13.pacbell.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [09:04] Kamion: how much work would it be to make updated images? === anto9us [n=anthony@ipv6.butes.org] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [09:04] I guess only -install matters? [09:04] Kamion: if the CD images are just a rebuild, yes. If shipit CDs are going to continue being posted through the 6-week extension, yes. And if not, other people like cheeplinux and private pressers may benefit [09:04] I chatted briefly to mdz about it, and he said he didn't see a great need, but didn't really clarify why [09:04] Kamion, would be helpful for iso downloaders, dapper is still not stable, so we'd save people from the bug === mjg59_ [n=mjg59@stop.codon.org.uk] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [09:04] I don't have a good reason not to other than "might be a fair bit of work", which I don't think really cuts it for a problem this serious [09:04] Network problems appear at the most inopportune moments [09:04] frankly [09:04] the prob i see is an out-of-sync with shipit [09:04] Keybuk: yes, -live isn't affected [09:05] since we wont press new ones [09:05] ogra: that's a downside, but we can label it clearly [09:05] Keybuk: there is a certain amount of faff involved [09:05] What is the shipit process? Are they actually pressed in large batches, or more on an on-demand basis? === fstat [n=wasd@ipa198.3.tellas.gr] has left #ubuntu-meeting [] [09:05] if I'm going to fix it properly, we need to somehow get a rebuild of debian-installer into breezy-updates [09:05] Kamion: can't we give the updated CD a new version number? [09:05] Kamion: could you take the previous CD and just hack it with the fixed package, rather than building completely fresh CDs from the archive with all the other updates on them? [09:05] I think releasing a CD with different name (5.10a?) also raise the awareness of said bug [09:05] which is good [09:05] pitti: that's part of labelling [09:05] Kamion: so that we don't change the original images? [09:05] ah [09:05] sladen: that's bloody hard work in this case and I won't [09:05] Kamion: would it solely be this fix included, or others from breezy-updates? [09:05] my gut says that because the vulnerability is in the installer, there's more of a reason to update the CDs than the usual security reasons [09:06] er, breezy-security not breezy-updates I mean [09:06] ajmitch: breezy-security, and probably a roll-up of all fixes to date [09:06] D [09:06] (sorry.) [09:06] which may not be a bad thing anyway [09:06] Kamion: bloody hard work --- rebuilding the whole CD, or just replacing the broken package? [09:06] Kamion: I think from a PR point of view, it would be advantageous to avoid shipping CD images we know to have a major problem [09:06] I got several mails and IRC questions about when we'll release new CDs, so users expect it [09:06] The shipit problem is presumably insurmountable, so should just be ignored in this case [09:06] so, the hard bit is that the correct fix for this problem is spread over a lot of places [09:07] there are core problems in cdebconf, which I've fixed in d-i svn === jjesse [n=jjesse@mail.ftpb.com] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [09:07] fixing those also requires rebuilding debian-installer (to update the initrd) === Sabsirro [n=sabsirro@dslb-084-056-178-155.pools.arcor-ip.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [09:07] if we (or should I say Kamion) was to do this, we could put all securityfixes in to such a release CD - but we didn't really do "security CDs" before, so I don't see the need why we should do it now === Sabsirro [n=sabsirro@dslb-084-056-178-155.pools.arcor-ip.net] has left #ubuntu-meeting [] === Surak [n=ubuntu@20132199223.user.veloxzone.com.br] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [09:07] Keybuk: Should we do the more pressing stuff ahead of the candidate review? [09:07] initial-passwd-udeb should be fixed to make sure to clear out the password from the database [09:08] dholbach, because the flaw is somewhat bigger ... [09:08] and prebaseconfig and installation-report need to be changed to make the logs world-unreadable [09:08] and it might get us good press as well ... === chuckyp [n=histo@ppp-70-227-0-137.dsl.bcvloh.ameritech.net] has left #ubuntu-meeting ["Peace] [09:08] dholbach: well, it leaves a trivial gaping root hole for peopel who install from CDs; it's the worst hole we had so far === claydoh [n=clay@65.99.187.241] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [09:08] dholbach: it's harder *not* to include everything else in breezy-security than it is just to include it [09:08] Kamion: Are there any especially awkward problems, or is it just something that takes time? [09:08] My vote is to update the CDs, I think; it seems prudent [09:09] sladen: fixes in lots of places, would have to establish a well-publicised source repository somewhere to satisfy GPL etc. - less work to just punt through breezy-security frankly [09:09] Kamion: I see, then it'd make sense to discuss a security release. [09:09] Keybuk++ [09:09] my worry is that the new package set will be larger than the CD size, meaning that you have to drop something and the package set != to the previous Breezy install set [09:09] I realise we've not done a security CD before, and we hoped we wouldn't have to === jbailey [n=jbailey@modemcable139.249-203-24.mc.videotron.ca] has joined #ubuntu-meeting === atie_ [n=atie@ubuntu/member/atie] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [09:09] which is why I brought it up here [09:09] Kamion: we may end up doing them for dapper, given its long support cycle; it could be a good test === netzmeister [n=netzmeis@p549FA4F2.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [09:09] yeah [09:10] keybuk was faster with typing, my thought [09:10] mjg59_: figuring out how to get debian-installer into breezy-security will be the only really hard bit; I may have to talk to cprov and Kinnison for that [09:10] what would be involved in a security cd release ? [09:10] Dapper desktop will be suported during 3 years. Does this mean there will be only security updates on apps and no big update ? (eq gaim 1.5->2.0) [09:10] zeus, mainly Kamion [09:10] zeus: Kamion has just covered that === mode/#ubuntu-meeting [+b %moox!*@*] by Seveas [09:10] zeus: rebuild CDs with packages from breezy + breezy-security, test lots and lots [09:10] Moox: that is off topic; please see the Ubuntu wiki for the answer to that question [09:10] Kamion: Ok. If this is something that would potentially have to be done in the dapper timeframe /anyway/, it seems reasonable [09:11] I think security images/scheduling/candidate review/everything else might be a plan === fooishbar [n=daniels@amnesiac.heapspace.net] has left #ubuntu-meeting [] [09:11] I think I'm with keybuk - it sounds like we ought to do this [09:11] we're putting in a number of changes now to make this whole class of vulnerability impossible in the future, but obviously I wouldn't like to entirely rule out the possibility of some other serious flaw [09:11] Kamion, if you need help testing the install CD - poke me [09:11] Kamion: are you happy to do it? Feel free to rope in anyone else to help (including me, given I have all three archs) [09:11] Anyone have any violent objections? === heno [n=henrik@henrik.gotadsl.co.uk] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [09:11] I'm happy to do the code changes, but given my other responsibilities I will only have time for cursory testing === apollo2011 [n=apollo20@69.37.100.203] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [09:12] I'm happy to help out with testing [09:12] me too [09:12] it's more than a bit embarassing that the CDs going out from the factory still have that hole on them. We're lucky, if this was Microsoft, they would have to have destoried all the stocked CDs so far and start again [09:12] sladen: point taken; let me just check sizes === kbrooks [n=kbrooks@unaffiliated/kbrooks] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [09:12] hi. [09:12] ping. [09:12] sladen: I'll talk to Jane about whether we can replace the ISO images they have [09:12] sladen: we have between 5MB and 33MB free on CD images, varying by architecture [09:12] sladen: That's not entirely true. Windows CDs with critical security flaws have been shipped before [09:12] in breezy [09:12] iirc. ship-it operates in on-demand batches, so it may be possible to do it; I'm not sure when the breezy run stops though [09:12] (known critical security flaws) [09:12] can someone summarize the meeting for me? [09:13] Kamion: I can't remember any security update that changed the size of the packages *apart* from firefox === mode/#ubuntu-meeting [+b %kbrooks!*@*] by Seveas === Xanadu [n=blah@wbs-196-2-109-177.wbs.co.za] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [09:13] I think we're probably safe - it seems unlikely that we would manage to suck up 5MB [09:13] kbrooks: logs are available on the web, http://people.ubuntu.com/~fabbione/ [09:13] irclogs/ === DaRE [n=DaRE@dyn-83-153-7-252.ppp.tiscali.fr] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [09:13] right, even ffox 1.0.7->1.0.8 had only trivial changes [09:13] kbrooks: the agenda is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TechnicalBoardAgenda [09:13] Kamion: excellent. [09:13] erm, -1 on both === robotgeek [i=venkat@ubuntu/member/robotgeek] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [09:13] pitti: ? [09:13] Ok. I think we've come to a consensus here. [09:14] pitti: -1 on which and which? [09:14] Kamion: I meant, it was 1.0.6->1.0.7, not 1.0.8 [09:14] ok [09:14] sorry for the confusion [09:14] Kamion: you can name the CD version how you see fit :) === XderalteX [i=duped@85.131.150.102] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [09:14] Kamion: You here?

Dapper rescheduling? === Drel [n=drel@dsl254-029-130.sea1.dsl.speakeasy.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [09:15] Kamion: I see I seee ;-) skay no matter ;-) [09:15] so Kamion can go play [09:15] Hi, what was the result of the meeting about postponing dapper? === mode/#ubuntu-meeting [+b %XderalteX!*@*] by Seveas [09:15] ok, thanks guys [09:15] mjg59_: I think mdz/sabdfl want to postpone that to a combined meeting with the CC [09:15] Keybuk: Ugh. Right. Any idea when? [09:15] Keybuk, CC ?? === cyphase [n=cyphase@ppp-69-233-32-59.dsl.pltn13.pacbell.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [09:16] enyc: (in other words, they already are autogenerated) [09:16] given neither of them are here, and they haven't yet announced a decision wrt to the delay, I don't see how we can talk about it :) [09:16] mjg59_: none === mister_spiff [n=wes@CPE00119519e2fb-CM0012c90d04fc.cpe.net.cable.rogers.com] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [09:16] Ok.

[09:18] to make it short [09:18] I am currently an active MOTU, particularly in Kubuntu. Lately, I have been focusing on fixing bugs and improving the Kubuntu desktop, working actively with AnthonyMercatante as the Kubuntu French MOTU Team (hehe). This implies working with packages in main, and getting them sponsored for upload afterwards. [09:19] There are not that many Kubuntu MOTUs but in order to help the current lack of Kubuntu core-devs I would like to apply for core-dev at this time. [09:19] I cannot be clearer: the main reason why I'm applying is to unblock uploads to main in Kubuntu, because I want Dapper to rock hard! [09:19] Riddell: are you here? [09:19] I support raphink [09:19] :) [09:19] he's been forwarding me fixes to packages in main [09:19] and I've been blocking when I've been busy with other stuff [09:19] raphink, are you aware that you can touch *every* package in main then, even the kernel etc ? [09:20] yes ogra [09:20] and do you feel ready to do that ?

[09:43] minghua: i'm not sure this is the right time [09:43] freeflying-ibook: I got your debdiff because I asked you (as Debian upstream maintainer) [09:43] minghua: before this uploaded , I mail you debdiff [09:43] Keybuk, i tend to belive Riddell and since he'll break his packages i'm fine with reputation from him :) [09:43] freeflying-ibook: but I would appreciate you do these in a more open way, so more people can get involved === KurtKraut [n=ktk@200217110170.user.veloxzone.com.br] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [09:43] my instinct suggests that freeflying is making good contributions to Ubuntu, and should continue to do so; but isn't yet well acquainted enough with our procedures and systems to formally join the team [09:44] minghua: about scim and relate stuff , idon't think now is good time to talk about [09:44] would anybody like to disagree with that and raise support? [09:44] minghua, I'd like to see yours and freeflying's efforts coordinated since you need help for KDE part. === devscott [n=scott@137.81.119.161] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [09:44] Amaranth: I am hoping he can use launchpad more, because I don't want to read dapper-changes to see a surprise [09:44] Riddell, ? [09:44] atie_: yes, I am trying to figure a way to cooperate with him [09:45] as I've said, I'm happy with his work for MOTU [09:45] mjg59: any questions/comments? [09:45] I am not unhappy with freeflying-ibook's changes to universe === didier [n=didier@84.5.171.55] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [09:45] I'd agree with Scott for now. I don't want to see Kubuntu be a poor second cousin in terms of localisation support, but I have a couple of qualms right now [09:45] but as people said, there need to be cooperations, and I currently have problems with cooperating with freeflying-ibook [09:46] I don't necessarily need to care, though [09:46] freeflying-ibook: thanks for your contributions so far, please do continue them :) however we're going to defer you for now. [09:46] minghua: could you work on sponsoring more of freeflying-ibook's uploads on the packages that you look after (if they're in Universe) [09:46] freeflying-ibook: please work more closely with other scim maintainers, and the other MOTU; also try to use launchpad more, especially Malone [09:46] minghua: actually it's you say that you don't care the main inclusion of scim , so how can i cooperate with y [09:47] not in the least because we use Launchpad to see your work [09:47] and at the moment your launchpad page shows very little activity [09:47] sladen: pitti said most scim packages are in main now [09:47] flikkeh: you have some excellent unique skills---that few other people here know about, please stick around and keep at it [09:47] sladen: but if he posted other CJK related patches, I would be more than happy to review and upload === jwilliams [n=jwilliam@williamslinux.otago.ac.nz] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [09:48] minghua: I'm sure he will be :) [09:48] ok, let's move on [09:48] jdong doesn't appear to be here [09:48] and none of the other candidates are members yet [09:48] sladen: I'm not entirely sure what your first agenda item is actually *about* [09:48] could you summaries what you'd like us to discuss and decide here? [09:49] Keybuk: first or third? [09:49] first [09:49] "granted main upload..." [09:49] Keybuk, jdong didnt do *any* packaging with MOTU yet [09:49] freeflying-ibook: also feel free to mail me if you have any patches for packages in universe that you feel not suitable for malone [09:50] Keybuk, being added to the LP team where he was missed out :) [09:50] minghua: thx for your advice [09:50] Keybuk: it's irrelevant now, the ticky box in LP has been clicked === lucas [n=lucas@ubuntu/member/lucas] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [09:50] sladen: I think that we should avoid discussing the new features stuff until the decision has been made on scheduling [09:50] sladen: ok :) [09:50] Would you mind if we left that until later? [09:51] madwifi-ng is not being held because of lack of time [09:51] mjg59_: it would make sense. It's dependent on that [09:51] it's being held because it flat-out doesn't work on amd64 :-) === ltibor65_ [n=ltibor65@dsl5400E465.pool.t-online.hu] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [09:51] Keybuk: The plan is to add it to l-r-m for x86 in any case, but anyway [09:51] (Not replacing madwifi) [09:51] aye [09:52] ok, let's look at that last item [09:52] and then go back to Mark's [09:52] (from the nm-mailinglist: madwifi-ng cvs is quite crackful lately) === jammcq [n=jam@c-69-244-142-116.hsd1.mi.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [09:52] sladen: what's the strange behaviour you have noticed? [09:53] the most usual thing I notice is either an "0ubuntu1" upload to Ubuntu and a "1" to Debian that are identical [09:53] Keybuk: *blink*? [09:53] or a "1" to both with different target distros [09:53] sladen: "PaulSladen: Syncs from external repositories. I've noticed a few people doing fake uploads of duplicate packages into order to speed up the development cycle." === fsman [n=paul@host86-141-95-96.range86-141.btcentralplus.com] has left #ubuntu-meeting [] [09:53] sladen, that was advised [09:53] Keybuk: syching back from Debian is taking a while [09:53] I suppose he meant 1build1 uploads [09:53] because the LP sync mechanism isnt in place yet [09:54] yes, and it doesn't add a new delta as -Xbuild1 would be automatically synced and overwritten by the autosyncer with -(X+1) === Aelor is now known as Aelor|sleep === KurtKraut [n=ktk@200217110170.user.veloxzone.com.br] has left #ubuntu-meeting ["Leaving"] === Aelor|sleep [n=Aelor@ALille-252-1-3-120.w83-192.abo.wanadoo.fr] has left #ubuntu-meeting ["Quitte"] [09:54] sladen: syncing back from Debian doesn't happen at all right now, unless you have a UVF exception, no? [09:54] XbuildX versions are overridden by autosyncs later [09:54] Keybuk: It doesn't happen at all right now [09:54] Keybuk: see note at the end [09:54] Even for UVF exceptions [09:54] I must admit, I'm completely baffled here === Ubugtu [n=bugbot@ubuntu/member/seveas] has left #ubuntu-meeting ["Seveas"] [09:54] Keybuk, there was a backlog on elmos side [09:54] sladen: could you give us a 1-line summary of the decision required? [09:55] mjg59_: if packages are uploaded to Debian (to save having deltas against upstream) [09:55] s/mjg59_// [09:55] to get that done without LP it was asked that MOTU does XbuildX uploads [09:55] Keybuk: "what do do about syncs from Debian not happening" [09:55] sladen: I think the actual problem here is "syncs are not happening", not "it needs to be easier to do syncs" [09:55] And the technical board is not in a position to fix the former of these [09:55] "easier to do syncs" is a firm Launchpad spec [09:55] Keybuk: when there is a preference to send packages to Upstream---we can't do this if the system is broken [09:56] Keybuk, "do syncs at all" === Qiang [n=qiang@chill.ccs.yorku.ca] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [09:56] mjg59_: but the TB is fine with doing "fakesyncs", i.e. -Xbuild1 uploads? [09:56] sladen: And the problem is "the system is broken". That's not what we can solve. [09:56] sladen, where is the system broken ? [09:56] syncs are currently somewhere between elmo, launchpad and katie as I understand it [09:56] slomo: I would really prefer not to, but in the absence of anything else... === Adziura [n=adziura@cuh234.internetdsl.tpnet.pl] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [09:56] none of which have TB-oversight [09:56] Keybuk, syncs are manually done by MOTU currently ... [09:57] and not for TB, right [09:57] sladen: where is the fixed sync system you are proposing we use? [09:57] it was an informal advise to use XbuildX for now [09:57] ogra: No, something that approximates syncs are manually done by MOTU currently [09:57] mjg59_: so what I'm after is guidance about how to cope with the system being broken. What's the offical workaround? [09:57] I consider this discussion to be somewhat artificial, all we seem to be doing is determining, that things could work better. === chrisle [n=chris@p54BE15C8.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [09:57] sladen: the official workaround is to do an upload of "XbuildX" [09:58] Anyway. I think it's clear we can't really do anything here === Adziura [n=adziura@cuh234.internetdsl.tpnet.pl] has left #ubuntu-meeting [] [09:58] indeed. It's known to be broken. It's on the list of things to fix. === sharms [n=mindwarp@141.215.4.128] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [09:58] And there is a workaround which is being used. [09:58] So. Hypothetical dapper schedule. Does someone have a link to the current schedule for reference? [09:58] I think sladen want to ask TB to confirm that "-Xbuild1" fakesync uploads are okay for the current situation [09:59] http://live.gnome.org/TwoPointFifteen [09:59] ^ is the GNOME 2.15 proposed schedule [09:59] because some MOTUs are still not sure if it's correct to do so [09:59] mjg59, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseSchedule [09:59] minghua: I don't think there's a TB decision there though; unless there is an argument *not* to do it that way [10:00] Keybuk: good, I have no questions then :-) [10:00] hypothetical dapper+6 weeks release would put it on June 1st [10:00] Keybuk: groovy, ta [10:00] Right. [10:00] Currently we have passed every freeze except beta, string and documentation [10:00] Code should only be changing to fix bugs [10:00] mjg59: except kernel aswell. [10:00] Who is TB-member here? [10:01] Unless there are specific feature goals, I don't think anyone is going to argue that we should lift the current freezes [10:01] hmm, polish might also mean UI changes [10:01] given the emphasis on localisation, it actually makes some sense to me to thaw the UI freeze just in case changes need to be made [10:01] Keybuk: Ok. UI freeze sounds like a good exception. [10:01] for the translators a reminder: string freeze is scheduled for the day after tomorrow === Jack_copp [n=Jack_cop@216.141.127.38] has left #ubuntu-meeting ["Kopete] [10:01] As another reminder: No decision has been made on the delay as yet. Do not assume that it will happen. [10:01] string freeze might also move i think [10:02] The fact that we are discussing this now does not mean that it will happen. [10:02] as well as doc freeze [10:02] This discussion is purely to determine what schedule we will follow if the delay /does/ take place [10:02] I'd push the entire March block into April [10:02] given that rosetta doesn't yet import everything in dapper, string freeze can certainly slip for one or two weeks [10:02] yeah [10:02] so leave us in FeatureFreeze [10:02] Keybuk: Keeping the weeks the same? That sounds good. [10:02] with a BetaRelease on April 20th [10:02] maybe we'd better wait for when a schedule has been decided? or , at least brought for review? [10:02] sivang: We decide the schedule. [10:02] mjg59_: now? :) [10:02] Yes. [10:03] theats what we do === pkst [n=kostas@ppp60-adsl-232.ath.forthnet.gr] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [10:03] sivang: it's IF delay is done THEN this new plan becomes active, not more [10:03] Or rather, we are currently deciding what the schedule will be if the delay takes place. [10:03] pitti: thakns for the clarification. [10:03] Keybuk: That's effectively a 4 week delay. Where do the other two weeks go? [10:03] bugfixing ? [10:03] pure bug fixing [10:03] testing [10:03] an extra two weeks of Beta test reports [10:04] hardware support bug fixing [10:04] Keybuk: Ok. With no string changes or UI changes? [10:04] preferably not [10:04] two weeks -> insert an extra week between each of the last two freezes? [10:04] hmm, that's an interesting point [10:04] mjg59, do you have a list of goals for localization and how many days needed for them? === WildTangent [n=justin_@d141-169-31.home.cgocable.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [10:04] the String and DocString freezes could be placed after Beta [10:04] atie_: I don't, no - not really my field, I'm afraid [10:05] sladen: you mean between FF and the UI ones? [10:05] what are the tradeoffs of postponing the string freeze? [10:05] atie_, #ubuntu-i10n (sprint people) might know (but they might be offline by now) [10:05] Keybuk: I think we should aim to have the same amount of time between string freeze and final release as we do now [10:05] mjg59, localization maybe factor for schedule, isn't it? [10:05] mjg59_: I agree with you [10:05] what about UI-freeze? [10:06] Keybuk: That is, string freeze should be 6 weeks before final release [10:06] I was thinking between RC and FR. But actually I think that time should be used earlier so that it can actually be /used/ and not spent sitting around waiting [10:06] should that be T-5 weeks or B-1 week? === WildTangent [n=justin_@d141-169-31.home.cgocable.net] has left #ubuntu-meeting ["Leaving"] [10:06] Keybuk: I think it should be independent of the beta. The length of time is more needed for translation time, right? === picgla [n=picmar@cpe-24-221-169-78.ca.sprintbbd.net] has left #ubuntu-meeting [] [10:06] Shame Jono isn't here. It would be nice to have his opinion on that. [10:07] but mako was earlier [10:07] right [10:07] is this something I can answer? [10:07] Burgwork, do you work with them on the book ? [10:07] yes === ssam [n=ssam@80-41-54-154.dynamic.dsl.as9105.com] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [10:07] so give an opinion :) [10:07] Ok. I propose string freeze to be April 27th. [10:08] Docstringfreeze should be the week after that. === PierPP [n=pier@host81-217.pool80104.interbusiness.it] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [10:08] ++ [10:08] Translation deadline two weeks after that. [10:08] And then release two weeks after that. [10:08] right [10:08] That is, keep those freezes the same distance away from the release as they are currently scheduled to be. === philbull [n=philbull@84.13.84.175] has left #ubuntu-meeting [] [10:09] BetaRelease on April 20th? [10:09] Yes, I think making a beta release on April 20th would be good. [10:09] it should not be called beta [10:09] April 6th [10:09] 13th Beta Freeze [10:09] 20th BetaRelease, UserInterfaceFreeze [10:09] 27th StringFreeze [10:09] May 4th DocumentationStringFreeze [10:09] 11th [10:09] translation of documentation can only begin after doc string freeze, how does it exactly improve document translation? [10:09] 18th NonLanguagePackTranslationDeadline, KernelFreeze [10:09] 25th ReleaseCandidate, LanguagePackTranslationDeadline [10:09] June 1st FinalRelease === jnk [n=jnk@adsl-62-167-27-61.adslplus.ch] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [10:09] it should be a PR boost [10:09] Seveas: Naming is not our field. [10:09] Seveas, jdub will rename it properly === devscott [n=scott@137.81.119.161] has left #ubuntu-meeting [] [10:09] ogra, I'm scared.... [10:09] the docteam wants to be mostly frozen for the beta, due to having great testing for that release [10:09] :) [10:09] that gives us an extra 5 (not 4) weeks until Beta [10:10] and an extra week between Beta and Release [10:10] Ok. How many people do we have here from the doc team? [10:10] so I would keep the docteam string freeze the same as the beta === robotgeek is docteam === godzero [n=godzero@c-24-118-30-116.hsd1.mn.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [10:11] robotgeek: How much extra time do you (and the translaters) realistically need? [10:11] should we really move the kernel freeze? [10:11] what if beta on April 20th not achieved for localization goals, do we postpone them to dapper+1? [10:11] Nafallo: it makes sense for the kernel to be frozen relative to the release [10:11] not relative to now [10:11] mjg59_: i am quite new to the doc team, i am not sure about translation times. i was hoping someone else could enlighten me on the issue [10:12] The kernel freeze is a hard freeze. [10:12] mjg59, we are well on track to meeting the current string freeze [10:12] Keeping it slushy for bug-fixing is sensible. [10:12] even without it being bumped back [10:12] Burgwork: Right. So currently we're proposing giving you an extra 4-5 weeks. [10:12] Burgwork: that assumes no new input from the localisation work [10:12] the only problem is with sutff changing in the UI [10:12] What could you do with that time? [10:12] cleanup more docs [10:13] mjg59_: probably not much. cleanup === olive [n=olive@o.o6.fr] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [10:13] what about documentation for espresso? === Ex-Cyber [i=Ultima_s@1Cust7634.an3.den10.da.uu.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [10:13] not yet in place [10:13] that is the last major piece we need [10:13] is that on track for the current string freeze? [10:13] mjg59_, renaming 6.04 to 6-06 in the docs :) [10:14] I think it would be helpful to have a proposal from the doc team on this [10:14] what about internationalization for espresso? [10:14] \o/ finally, my version numbering scheme (that I suggested back at the original "version number decision" meeting) is being adopted [10:14] (ahem) [10:14] mjg59, you want specific information about where we should move the freeze to? [10:15] Burgwork: I think this is something that should be decided with more feedback from the doc team [10:15] Burgwork: I'm trying to understand what the DocStringFreeze is nailed to [10:15] is it "four weeks before Release, because that's how long we need to do it" [10:15] If an earlier freeze helps translation, then that's good. [10:15] Keybuk, currently the beta freeze, to allow greater testing [10:15] or is it "never change Docs after Beta has released" ? [10:15] testing of what? [10:15] and to allow translation [10:15] If a later freeze helps the quality of the docs, then that's also good. [10:15] Keybuk: i think it has more to do with the UI freeze, cause we have to change stuff if you do === Varth [n=Nathan@c-24-15-102-55.hsd1.il.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [10:16] testing to see if the docs are crack and looking for typos, etc. [10:16] i'm not the best person, but i thought doc freeze occured after UI freeze to help with translations and make sure there aren't major changes to the docs [10:16] Keybuk: that would leave us still in '''UserInterfaceFreeze''' ? [10:16] plus allow translation [10:16] docs don't get uploaded into rosseta until doc freeze (correect me if i'm wrong burgwork) === vicks [n=vicks@c-dd8870d5.037-42-67626719.cust.bredbandsbolaget.se] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [10:17] afaik, that is correct, but I am not the best person to ask about that [10:17] Burgwork: DocStringFreeze to me suggests "no more documentation changes" [10:17] Keybuk, oh, yes, your list above had no new date for UI freeze === Flik [n=Matthew@d64-180-234-68.bchsia.telus.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [10:17] ogra: does, april 20th [10:17] oh [10:17] sorry, i'm blind === DaRE [n=DaRE@dyn-83-153-7-252.ppp.tiscali.fr] has left #ubuntu-meeting [] === ogra blushes === erdal_ [n=erdalron@p508746AB.dip.t-dialin.net] has left #ubuntu-meeting ["Ex-Chat"] [10:18] Keybuk, no text changes, but screenshots etc [10:18] we like to keep screenshots to the docteam freeze as well [10:18] right, given the changes in localisation and stuff, it makes a bit of sense to me to actually freeze the UI/String/Docs *after* we've already released beta [10:18] jjesse: that is correct, no translation before DocStringFreeze [10:19] but still with a whole extra week to do the work before release [10:19] let me raise the idea on the doc mailing list [10:19] Keybuk: I think we should possibly get more feedback from the translators before making a firm decision on this point [10:19] as jerome and matthew are the best people to ask about this [10:19] mjg59_: +1 [10:20] Since there is a firm desire for higher quality docs, and that's going to include the translations [10:20] i think we do a rough proposal only ... === wdh [n=wouter@s55935227.adsl.wanadoo.nl] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [10:20] anyway ... [10:20] right, I agree with ogra; let's put it forward as a proposal for the TB/CC super-meeting [10:20] and make sure the translators and docteam have weighed in [10:20] Ok. Let's go with that. === zell1983 [n=zell1983@host18-123.pool874.interbusiness.it] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [10:21] is it worth budging the Release an extra day to fall at the start of the weekend for mirror loading et al [10:21] there's a reason (that I've forgotten) that we do it on Thursday [10:22] someones b-day ? [10:22] most GNOME 2.14 application translations can be uploaded to rosetta independently I think. [10:22] :) [10:23] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseSchedule/Slewed [10:23] (thanks sladen) [10:23] so that's our proposal for a 6-week-delayed schedule === lars__ [n=lars@216-34-96.0102.adsl.tele2.no] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [10:23] Any violent objections? [10:24] seems sane [10:24] since its a proposal only ...

Anything else to do? [10:25] Any other business from the floor? [10:25] doesnt look like [10:26] That.. would mean that 6.04 _would_ be there.. as a beta release! [10:26] and 6.05 would be the final [10:26] hrrm [10:26] 6-06 as final [10:26] well you can't please everybody _whatever_ you do! [10:26] nope, 6-06 [10:26] oh yes [10:26] ;-) [10:26] ok, in that case [10:26] meeting ajourned [10:26] thanks everybody [10:26] yay [10:26] the next formal meeting will be in two weeks time (28th) [10:26] thanks Keybuk mjg59_ [10:27] First person to post that schedule to slashdot gets sworn at === ogra goes for a beer [10:27] Well get on with it then ;-) *good luck nice people* ;-) [10:27] there will be an additional meeting to discuss the dapper release before then, there will be a mail (from sabdfl) to announce that === Varth [n=Nathan@c-24-15-102-55.hsd1.il.comcast.net] has left #ubuntu-meeting [] [10:27] mjg59_ : :-) [10:27] mjg59_, just sworn? === gus_ [i=gus@ritchie.ping.uio.no] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [10:27] thanks all, bye.

[10:28] Ubuntu See'o sex [10:28] ops =) [10:28] robotgeek: Not our decision [10:28] robotgeek: there's an increasing consensus to change to a "-" to avoid confusion with people calling it "point four"
