[09:56] dholbach: given the agenda, he's likely to miss the meeting [09:56] I'm very sorry that it has to happen. He's a real asset for Universe. [09:57] Keybuk: we have sfllaw as well === sfllaw [i=sfllaw@debian/developer/coleSLAW] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [09:57] mdz: we do, how? [09:57] seconded, gloububoulga is very good === wasabi [n=wasabi@207.55.180.150] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [09:58] very helpful in xubuntu land === kagou [n=kagou@84.5.163.212] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [09:58] mdz: HE ISN'T ON MY LIST :p [09:58] Keybuk: well, he can speak for himself, but I presume he'd like to be able to upload [09:58] sfllaw: add yourself to the list [09:59] sfllaw: https://launchpad.net/people/ubuntu-core-dev [09:59] So many lists to add myself to. [09:59] membership ? [09:59] I didn't even know I was on the Core Development Team until five seconds ago. [09:59] Ta da! [09:59] (will that be sorted afterwards ?) === mdke [n=matt@ubuntu/member/mdke] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [10:00] sfllaw: you aren't yet [10:00] Well there we go. [10:01] sfllaw: the basic process for gaining upload privileges in Ubuntu is to apply for membership in the appropriate team and turn up at a meeting (like this one) to be considered [10:01] random thought, why doesn't irc.ubuntu.com point to freenode? [10:01] sfllaw: typically you bring along an existing member who has worked with you and can speak on your behalf [10:01] mdz, couldnt we just make employees automatically members ? [10:01] (i think its worth a policy change) [10:02] i mean signed contract yadda yadda ... [10:02] ogra: that strikes me as inappropriate, and if I'm not mistaken, sabdfl has explicitly spoken against it [10:02] Let's Get It Started!

[10:03] I'm under the impression that he's "being a booth babe". [10:03] But let me look. [10:03] He doesn't seem to be online. === mvo [n=egon@p54A648B2.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [10:03] I'm afraid that I can't say whether jbailey would absolutely vouch for me. [10:03] But I'm presuming he would. === ubuntu_lt [n=Styx`@85.206.224.190] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [10:04] I'll try his mobile [10:05] I can try to say some bits: I was in touch with sfllaw around 2 years ago, when I used wvstreams for a project - at that time I was impressed on how fast he reacted, analyzed the problem I had and got the fix either into Debian or fixed it directly upstream. That's what I can say about his Debian / packaging skills. [10:05] sfllaw: for how long have you been a Debian maintainer now? [10:06] jbailey was just walking onto an airplane, he won't be able to make it [10:06] dholbach, thats already 2 years ago ? woah [10:06] mdz: if it crashes, we're blaming you === ogra remembers dholbach's praises for wvstreams upstream bck then [10:06] *back === freeflying-ibook [n=freeflyi@61.190.65.30] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [10:07] Keybuk: don't make that kind of jokes shortly before release :) [10:07] was ubuntu existing then? :) === sivang lost track of time already. [10:07] sivang, dholbach and i met in #ubuntu at that time [10:08] so it existed, yes [10:08] or maybe it was even longer ago [10:08] ogra: ah, so we already met each other probably [10:09] sfllaw: have you wandered off? [10:09] mdz: Nope. [10:10] dholbach: I've been looking... [10:10] ah... ok :-) [10:10] sfllaw: it's probably best if we wait until the next meeting for this, when you have some time to prepare [10:10] Fair enough. [10:11] dholbach: heard from gloubigoula? [10:11] dholbach: January 2000 was when I started. [10:11] mdz: yeah, as I said: he'll be 30m late, so ~20m he should be here [10:11] is there any other business? [10:11] the only other applicant (that really meant it) was afaik wasabi [10:11] lifeless isnt around by chance ? [10:11] Daf is around if we want to do his motu? [10:12] I was an applicabt? [10:12] applicant? I was wondering why you were yelling at me. [10:12] wasabi: for ubuntu-dev? [10:12] Already in. [10:12] wasabi: I tried to highlight on all your nicks :-) [10:12] wasabi: Oh sorry, I must have missed that. I just rememberd you signed up with the team. [10:12] Yeah, I was "missed" in the LP migration somehow, and was too busy to notice. [10:13] wasabi: who took care of that for you? [10:13] keybuk [10:13] daf sounds like a good start ... [10:13] ogra: daf isn't here [10:13] mdz: Shall I grab daf? [10:13] (He's physically here) [10:13] this is possibly the most chaotic tech board meeting yet ;-) [10:13] mjg59: his choice [10:13] heh [10:14] 30 seconds === daf [i=daf@muse.19inch.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [10:14] There we go [10:14] Hmm. I think I was in ubuntu-core-dev, too. [10:14] But I haven't had to work on my packages in main in a long while. [10:14] hey daf === daf waves === JanC [n=janc@lugwv/member/JanC] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [10:15] hello daf! [10:15] wasabi: only found your ubuntu-dev meeting [10:15] k. No biggy. [10:15] I'm done with Java stuff anyways. [10:16] wasabi,Keybuk: the archive keyring was authoritative at the time [10:16] and that's what I worked from when migrating to LP [10:16] daf: welcome [10:17] daf: care to tell us a bit about your involvement with ubuntu and plans for future involvement? === sivang hugs daf [10:17] mostly been involved with Rosetta stuff [10:17] occasional patches === mvo waves to daf [10:18] my impetus for upload privileges is to be able to upload stuff to Ubuntu at the same time as I upload to Debian [10:18] daf: you're a Debian developer as well, yes? [10:18] aye [10:18] daf: which packages do you maintain there? [10:18] er [10:19] http://qa.debian.org/developer.php?login=Dafydd+Harries&comaint=yes [10:19] various things [10:19] plus I've recently joined the GNOME team === Lure [n=lure@clj46-234.dial-up.arnes.si] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [10:21] daf: have you done any Ubuntu uploads through an existing developer? [10:21] no, don't think so [10:21] daf: didn't I uploaded a patch and new gnome-gpg or something? [10:21] daf: or you worked on it and I synced it? [10:22] that was a sync [10:22] Ok. [10:22] hi there === Gloubi|AFK [n=gauvain@84.5.69.197] has joined #ubuntu-meeting === Riddell [i=jr@kde/jriddell] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [10:23] hi Gloubi|AFK [10:23] and hi Riddell :) [10:23] hi [10:23] then we investigated a bit in the gossip package [10:23] tb is @ 22UTC right ? [10:23] raphink: it's at 20UTC as always, and it's in progress right now [10:23] ouch sorry mdz :( === raphink keeps quiet [10:23] dholbach: indeed [10:23] dholbach: care to comment on your experience working with daf? [10:24] mdz: he was very easy to work with, we discussed some gossip bugs and had a look on a new gnome-gpg version and he was always easy to work with. [10:25] He answered quickly and things were done in no time. I was happy. :-) [10:25] Keybuk: any questions? [10:26] mdz: no questions [10:26] ok [10:26] votes [10:26] +1 on the basis that I can hit him in person if he does anything wrong [10:27] heh [10:27] +1 from me [10:27] hahaha [10:27] +1 from me based on Debian experience and dholbach's advocacy [10:27] daf: done and done [10:27] daf: welcome === dholbach congratulates daf! [10:27] thank you [10:27] Excellent news! :-) [10:27] :) [10:27] welcome daf [10:27] Gloubiboulga: I believe you're next? === Gloubiboulga is Gauvain Pocentek [10:27] daf: well done [10:28] Gloubiboulga: So, what do you want to do in Ubuntu? [10:28] I guess I'm the next one mdke [10:28] mjg59, my work has been centered on Xubuntu for a month === mdke passes it onto mdz [10:28] s/work/great work/ [10:29] I'd like to keep working on this, even if Xfce is in main now:) [10:29] janimo: have you been uploading his packages? [10:29] mdz, yes [10:29] all his xfce work [10:29] janimo: and reviewing them before upload, presumably. ;-) what is your assessment of his work? [10:30] mdz, very nice work. [10:30] thorough [10:31] Gloubiboulga: presumably you will continue to work through janimo for Xubuntu packages for now; is there any other area where you would like to work as a MOTU? === raphink has reviewed Gloubiboulga's work on REVU since he began contributing and is also very happy with the quality of his work [10:31] mdz, not really a particular aera [10:31] mdz, there are still some bits left in ubinverse for xubuntu [10:31] he has some new uploads from xfce upstream in the queu [10:31] e [10:32] I'm really interesting in helping new packagers [10:32] I've comment some packages on REVU, it's an important part of the MOTU work imo [10:32] *commented [10:32] yes, thats true ... [10:33] yes, I have advocated comments on REVU for Gloubiboulga as he sent them to me [10:33] Gloubiboulga is very helpful to people in -motu [10:33] most of good interest [10:33] Gloubiboulga: have you gotten in touch with laserjock to help with packaging guide? [10:33] Yeah, I personally liked how he steppd up in ubuntu-bugs as well, took care of patches for issues in universe-bugs, etc [10:33] I'm pleased with his work there [10:33] ok [10:33] raphink, nop, I read his guide, discussed a few thing with him, that's it [10:34] Keybuk,mjg59: any questions for Gloubiboulga? [10:34] nope, no questions from me [10:35] Gloubiboulga: What are your aims for xfce? [10:35] mjg59, Xfce itself is fine, but Xubuntu can provide a much more usable desktop [10:36] It's easily installable, comes on an iso [10:36] everything is done to have a clean, stable distro using this desktop [10:37] Gloubiboulga: is there anything in particular that you feel is missing which you would like to work on adding? [10:37] Gloubiboulga has been in touch with xfce panel plugin writers, about them being in time for dapper [10:37] mdz, yes, some tools are missing, like keyboard, printer manament [10:37] imho notebook support in xubuntu is poor [10:37] managment* [10:38] lucasvo, true [10:38] lucasvo: true. the only thing there is susp/hib form logout menu [10:38] janimo: exactly [10:38] no battery status etc. [10:38] lucasvo: there's a battrey plugin in main since yesterday [10:38] Gloubiboulga: are there good solutions for keyboard and printer functionality which exist but are not in Xubuntu yet? [10:38] mdz, Xfce only cannot satisfy a desktop user imo [10:38] was in universe [10:38] janimo: ah, ok [10:39] Gloubiboulga actually works on the xkb plugin now, but for some reason not mentioningit [10:39] mdz, you can't easily set up different keuboard layouts for exemple === mvo [n=egon@p54A648B2.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [10:40] mdz, janimo just told it, I'm working on the xkb plugin to solve this [10:41] editing xorg.conf is not an easy for most users :) [10:41] esay thing even [10:41] ok [10:41] Keybuk,mjg59: votes? [10:42] +1 from me, good to get more xfce work [10:42] +1 for Gloubiboulga based on several MOTU recommendations and good work demonstrated with janimo [10:43] did we lose mjg59? [10:43] Gloubiboulga: at any rate you have a majority, congratulations and welcome [10:43] Gloubiboulga: congrats :) [10:43] congratulations Gloubiboulga! welcome to the team! [10:43] thanks :) [10:43] congrats Gloubiboulga [10:43] welcome Gloubiboulga :) [10:44] a fait plaisir de t'avoir comme dev :) [10:44] I believe that's the end of the agenda? [10:44] merci raphink ;) [10:44] yep [10:44] janimo, dholbach, ogra thanks a lot :) [10:44] thanks everybody [10:44] mdz, i have a quick question, if you have time. I've written it already so it should be fast. [10:44] Gloubiboulga: anytime - you deserved the praise [10:44] mdke: shoot [10:44] I've vaguely followed the meeting since I joined the channel, is it correct that ubuntu membership is no longer required for becoming a developer (some of the candidates considered are not members, and some of the core-dev team don't appear to be either)? If so, I think we should update the website: it gives a slightly misleading account of the community governance process. Or alternatively, the ubuntu-members LP group may be incomplete. [10:45] mdke, its still required [10:45] so the latter? [10:45] mdke: they're somewhat disconnected at the moment; people generally go through the processes separately [10:45] Whoops, sorry about that [10:45] indeed, they're handled by different groups [10:45] mdz, does it matter which goes first? [10:45] But I agree [10:46] mdke: for my part, I don't mind which goes first, but they should happen close together [10:46] folks who are in ubuntu-dev but not members should go through the membership process [10:46] ok, the website is definitely misleading then [10:47] indeed [10:47] what we wanted to avoid was folks having to wait 3 weeks or more, and attend adjacent meetings, to go through the process [10:47] this is probably something to be discussed at CC next week [10:47] ok fine [10:47] logically, it would make sense for membership to be a prerequisite, but we've been somewhat flexible for practical reasons [10:47] mdke: would you put it on the CC agenda? I'll try to be there to discuss [10:48] mdz, be happy to. [10:48] it's two problems I suppose === lifeless [n=robertc@dsl-43.1.240.220.rns01-kent-syd.dsl.comindico.com.au] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [10:48] Keybuk: am I too late? [10:48] lifeless: well hello, we were just about to close up [10:49] I think we can just squeeze him in [10:49] thank you [10:49] lifeless: care to introduce yourself? [10:49] Hi, I'm lifeless [10:49] he has a french dictionary named after him :) [10:49] I'm here hoping to get upload rights to universe as a MOTU [10:50] yay [10:50] lifeless, [10:50] indeed, the Robert-Collins dictionary [10:50] often missed here [10:50] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RobertCollins describes most of the Ubuntu focused things I get up to [10:51] lifeless: you maintain a few packages in Debian as well, yes? [10:51] ah, it's on your wiki page [10:51] yup, bicyclerepair, fl-cow, opensync, testresources [10:52] lifeless: who sponsors the bzr uploads to ubuntu? jbailey? [10:52] lifeless: I don't think Ubuntu runs well on S/360s. I don't know about S/390s, though.. [10:52] lifeless: do you do most of the packaging work for the uploads which go directly to ubuntu? [10:52] mdz: yes. bzr is currently packaged by jbailey himself [10:53] lifeless: are you a Debian developer, or does someone sponsor your uploads there? [10:53] mdz: I'm a DD, though still a relatively new one [10:54] lifeless: what about i5/OS ? ;-) [10:54] (I asked because your Maintainer fields don't have a debian.org address) [10:54] I tend to get someone to eyeball my uploads if I'm working in a new area of packaging I'm not familiar with [10:54] mdz: ah. [10:54] mdz: that's not so unusual? When I was a DD, I never used my debian.org address [10:55] Keybuk: not everyone does, but when they don't, it isn't immediately obvious whether they're a DD or not [10:55] this is true. I guess I think of myself as 'me' and as being a DD as one facet. [10:56] and I'm far too lazy to go beyond apt-cache show to confirm ;-) [10:56] its the same with canonical work, I usually use my home address except in rare circumstances [10:56] lifeless: so, what makes you want to join the MOTU? [10:56] what about Ubuntu interests and excites you [10:56] and what would you like to change and make better? [10:57] so [10:57] I want to join MOTU to be able to complete the loop when I'm helping out in #ubuntu-motu [10:58] for instance, azeem and I want to make the mobile syncing stuff in ubuntu really rock for dapper +1 [10:58] which is why we are working on all the opensync, discussing issues with upstream [10:58] and so on. [10:58] lifeless: what are the issues there? I'm interested [10:59] mdz: multisync is essentially abandoned upstream, and the 'new' codebase 'opensync' is very unstable [10:59] I want to be able to sync contacts between my phone and evolution, in particular [11:00] does opensync have that sort of use case as a target? [11:00] we've hit a number of issues in packaging - the test suite is location fragile [11:00] oh yes, thats exactly what opensync is about, multisync 0.8x may well do it already [11:01] cool, maybe I'll find time to play with it one of these days [11:01] would opensync also let me sync the evolution address book on my laptop with that on my desktop? [11:01] but the multisync 0.8 ui is (at best) crackful - the 0.9 ui based on opensync should be much much better once it all comes together [11:01] Keybuk: Yes [11:01] Keybuk: yes [11:01] Keybuk: syncml + evo on the desktop, evo + syncml on the laptop [11:01] Synchronisation is something we've really been missing out on [11:02] any further questions? [11:02] votes [11:03] answering what about ubuntu interests and excites me is rather hard - I find *everything* fascinating and interesting--- its just a matter of triaging down to the things I have time to actually look at [11:03] +1 based on past record and intention to work on important stuff [11:03] +1 based on Debian history, sanity of existing packages, etc. [11:03] +1 [11:03] even though he's at least partly responsible for Arch [11:03] :) [11:04] lifeless: congrats [11:04] I'm also 'at least partly responsible' for the solution! [11:04] mdz: thank you [11:04] thank you mjg59 and Keybuk too [11:04] any other business before workrave strangles me? [11:05] mdz, I've added the agenda item for the CC [11:05] mdke: thanks [11:05] yay lifeless [11:05] finally :) [11:05] not hearing any other business, adjourned [11:05] thanks all === Tonio_ [n=tonio@tonio.planetemu.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [11:05] thanks mdz [11:05] congrats lifeless === janimo [n=jani@Home03207.cluj.astral.ro] has left #ubuntu-meeting [] === Hirion [n=hirion@draugr.de] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [11:07] seems I'm a bit late this time ^^ [11:07] huhu === ubijtsa [n=ubijtsa@karlsson.force9.co.uk] has joined #ubuntu-meeting === j_ack [n=nico@p508D8C83.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #ubuntu-meeting === Hirion [n=hirion@draugr.de] has left #ubuntu-meeting [] === cassidy [n=cassidy@f1-pc174.ulb.ac.be] has joined #ubuntu-meeting
