| Keybuk | I can see sfllaw and zakame | 10:11 |
| Keybuk | do we also have zul ? | 10:11 |
| zul | yep | 10:11 |
| zakame | hi Keybuk seb128 :D | 10:12 |
| Keybuk | ok, shall we start at the top then | 10:12 |
| Keybuk | sfllaw: you're proposed for ubuntu-core-dev | 10:12 |
| Keybuk | and you're at the top of my list, so you get to go first :) | 10:12 |
| sfllaw | Hmm... I don't know what to say outside of what I said to the Community Council. | 10:12 |
| sfllaw | I've been a Debian Developer since April 2003. I'm upstream maintainer for a few pieces of software and package more that just those. | 10:12 |
| sfllaw | I've been doing Ubuntu work for about two weeks now and have been steadily triaging through bug reports. I expect to do this for as long Canonical pays me and probably after that. | 10:12 |
| sfllaw | Ask me questions. | 10:13 |
| sfllaw | Please? | 10:13 |
| ogra | will you pay us beer in paris ? | 10:13 |
| fabbione | sfllaw: do you like beer? | 10:13 |
| ogra | *lots* of beer ? | 10:13 |
| fabbione | we love it :) | 10:13 |
| ogra | :) | 10:13 |
| azeem | ogra: there's no good beer in Paris, d'oh | 10:13 |
| sfllaw | I do. I have a fondness for Qubec beers. | 10:13 |
| sfllaw | And ones from a small University town in Waterloo. | 10:14 |
| fabbione | +1 for sfllaw | 10:14 |
| ogra | azeem, ah, damned, right its the wine country | 10:14 |
| Keybuk | sfl: do you support the quebecistani separatist movement? | 10:14 |
| === sivang prefers wine | ||
| bddebian | Wow, two weeks of bug triaging? Can I apply then? :-) | 10:14 |
| mjg59 | sfllaw: What will you be doing with main? | 10:14 |
| sfllaw | Keybuk: I am apolitical. | 10:14 |
| ogra | anothe +1 for sfllaw then :) | 10:14 |
| jbailey | *lol* | 10:14 |
| jbailey | Simon does cook *Very* well. | 10:14 |
| === dholbach_ [n=daniel@i577B29F9.versanet.de] has joined #ubuntu-meeting | ||
| jbailey | Even vegan food. =) | 10:14 |
| azeem | sfllaw: is it true that you are part of a group which calls itself `THUG'? | 10:14 |
| highvoltage | wine is not an emulator? | 10:14 |
| cbx33 | The Hug User Group ? | 10:15 |
| Keybuk | (For those just floating by, sfllaw works for Canonical and is in charge of Ubuntu QA) | 10:15 |
| mjg59 | Could we have a little less in the way of background noise, please? | 10:15 |
| sfllaw | mjg59: I hope to be sponsoring bugfixes into main, that I have vetted. As well, I hope to package various debugging tools that I will write. And, of course, to upload my own packages which I will maintain in parallel to my Debian ones. | 10:15 |
| mdz | (sorry, was drawn into the kernel discussion in progress) | 10:15 |
| sfllaw | azeem: I am no longer. We're now called CHUG. | 10:15 |
| mjg59 | sfllaw: Which Debian packages do you maintain which would be appropriate for main? (or are we talking about universe here as well?) | 10:16 |
| sfllaw | wvdial and wvstreams are the canonical examples. | 10:16 |
| ogra | heya, what about tvtime ? | 10:17 |
| sfllaw | Is that in main? | 10:17 |
| mdz | no | 10:17 |
| sfllaw | Sweet. | 10:17 |
| ogra | nah | 10:17 |
| mdz | ogra: he was answering mjg59's question | 10:17 |
| mjg59 | sfllaw: wvdial isn't really (well, at all) integrated into the desktop right now. Do you have any interest in trying to improve the state of dialup? | 10:18 |
| sfllaw | I do. | 10:18 |
| mjg59 | Excellent. How? :) | 10:18 |
| sfllaw | This weekend, I found the fix to the bug in WvStreams that hung autodetection. | 10:18 |
| Keybuk | I'd be especially grateful of any dial-up integration assistance you could provide | 10:18 |
| mdz | indeed, that is an area where we have known deficiencies due to Ubuntu developers having broadband :-P | 10:18 |
| sfllaw | So that's a start. | 10:18 |
| Keybuk | do you know much about ISDN? | 10:18 |
| sfllaw | Sadly nothing about ISDN. | 10:18 |
| sfllaw | I understand jbailey does. | 10:18 |
| sfllaw | And he lives, like five minutes away. | 10:18 |
| mjg59 | sfllaw: Other areas of interest include trying to improve winmodem setup and the like | 10:19 |
| mjg59 | It'd be good to have that working to the legally practical extent | 10:19 |
| sfllaw | That would excellent. I have to caution you that my primary responsibility is still QA. | 10:19 |
| mjg59 | Obviously | 10:19 |
| sfllaw | But I would be happy to work in this direction, as it's something I've wanted to do for WvDial for a while. | 10:19 |
| mdz | sfllaw: I'd love to see a launchpad team devoted to dialup support, to which the relevant bugs could be directed | 10:20 |
| mdz | I expect that if you sent out a call to the community, folks would join up | 10:20 |
| mdz | teams are a good way to create a focal point for that kind of work | 10:20 |
| mjg59 | sfllaw: On another note, wvdial isn't really the model of a modern UI - exposing things like "stupid mode" to the user is somewhat confusing :) | 10:20 |
| === zakame would join, as he's on a winmodem | ||
| sfllaw | mjg59: All I have to say in its defence is that it was excellent at the time it was written... | 10:21 |
| mdz | (wvdial hasa UI?) | 10:21 |
| mjg59 | sfllaw: I'm not going to disagree in the slightest | 10:21 |
| sfllaw | WvDial has suffered from its age. | 10:21 |
| highvoltage | a ui, probably not a gui :) | 10:21 |
| ivoks | mdz: gnome-ppp | 10:21 |
| pitti | does any country apart from Germany actually use it? | 10:21 |

| mjg59 | Ok, I think I'm done. Anyone else? | 10:22 |
| sfllaw | And that's in North America. | 10:22 |
| ogra | ISDN | 10:22 |
| ivoks | ISDN is popular in Croatia too | 10:22 |
| Mithrandir | not that uncommon in .no either. | 10:22 |
| zakame | ivoks: which fortunately I'm now ITA'ing in Debian atm | 10:22 |
| fabbione | and in some parts of italy too | 10:22 |
| highvoltage | and in south africa | 10:22 |
| Mithrandir | (but I tend to solve the problem by throwing an ISDN router in between. :-) | 10:22 |
| highvoltage | i'm connected with wvdial right now | 10:22 |
| mjg59 | No, really, can we please focus on the agenda rather than veering off into unrelated tangents? | 10:23 |

| mjg59 | mdz: Keybuk: Anything else? | 10:23 |
| crimsun | sfllaw: this may not lie in the scope of bug hunting, but do you envision automating strace, backtraces, and the like? | 10:23 |

| mdz | votes? | 10:23 |

| sfllaw | I haven't yet written specs for these tools yet. | 10:24 |
| mdz | +1 here based on Debian and Ubuntu involvement and high expectations ;-) | 10:24 |

| mdz | fabbione: not a problem in itself, but it's confusing during the meeting :-) | 10:25 |
| mjg59 | Ok. Who's up next? | 10:26 |
| Keybuk | zul is next | 10:26 |
| Keybuk | (for main) | 10:26 |
| zul | ok.. | 10:26 |
| mjg59 | zul: Cool. Can you introduce yourself? | 10:26 |
| bddebian | What the?.. | 10:26 |
| zul | my name is ChuckShort and I have been using linux in one form or another for the past 10 years | 10:26 |
| zul | i been using ubuntu since hoary and i have been contributing since then as well. | 10:27 |
| zul | i am a member of the kernel team where i been helping out with patches, external drivers, bug triaging and some support | 10:27 |
| zul | i also helped out with the bug squad doing uploads to universe with various fixes, i also been trying to help out with grub as well | 10:28 |
| fabbione | i can speak up as witness for zul work | 10:28 |
| highvoltage | cool. chuck uses linux! | 10:28 |
| zul | im also a member of the laptop team | 10:28 |
| fabbione | at least for the kernel part | 10:28 |
| mdz | zul has been a member of MOTU since September | 10:28 |
| bddebian | highvoltage: :-) | 10:28 |
| fabbione | he did quite a job... | 10:29 |
| mdz | unless that's when we migrated into launchpad, in which case it's been longer ;-) | 10:29 |
| ogra | and did a huge amount of fixes already | 10:29 |
| Keybuk | you've certainly touched a fair number of packages | 10:29 |
| zul | i also obeen bugging people about ubuntuce or embedded ubuntu | 10:29 |
| fabbione | and Dear TC please approve zul so he can stop nagging me to be to a TC meeting :P | 10:29 |
| zul | and i was at ubz as well | 10:29 |
| zul | hehe | 10:29 |
| mjg59 | zul: So, what would you be doing in main? | 10:29 |
| Keybuk | zul: and what would you like to do in main? | 10:30 |
| Keybuk | heh, snap | 10:30 |
| zul | mdz: i done more work with bugzilla :) | 10:30 |
| fabbione | anyway.. joking aside.. i think he can manage quality wise to keep up with our standards | 10:30 |
| zul | i would like to continue with the kernel team, i want to help out maintain the dapper kernel once dapper has been released | 10:30 |
| fabbione | and he has always been there | 10:30 |
| zul | as well as varous bugfixing and vetting bug fixes into main | 10:30 |
| === Hirion [n=hirion@draugr.de] has left #ubuntu-meeting [] | ||
| zul | oh yeah i was also a gentoo developer where I maintained apache for gentoo before i got burned out | 10:31 |
| mdz | zul: what do you think we can do to help effectively triage kernel bugs? it is one of the highest volumes of new bugs we have | 10:31 |
| zul | mdz: basically keep doing what i have been doing asking questions and providing test modules for users to try | 10:32 |
| sfllaw | zul: Hmm. Could we go beyond that? Looking at our bug triage rates, we're slipping behind the rate of bug filing. | 10:33 |
| zul | for example if user has a problem with the sky2 module i would try to find a patch or create a patch and put it somewhere where users can try it out | 10:33 |
| zul | sfllaw: true | 10:33 |
| mdz | zul: it seems that at present, there are many bugs which do not even see a response (e.g., reports which need to be asked for more info), I'm referring to that problem more so than getting the bugs fixed | 10:33 |
| === BenC [n=bcollins@debian/developer/bcollins] has joined #ubuntu-meeting | ||
| zul | sfllaw: i havent had a chance to look a lot of kernel bugs because of real life commitments recently | 10:33 |
| zul | but in the past i try to be as prompt as possible | 10:34 |
| === vincent_ [n=vincent@85.69.101.147] has joined #ubuntu-meeting | ||
| mdz | BenC: we're discussing zul's application, and in the process, the question of how to address the problem of kernel bug triage | 10:35 |
| BenC | should I address zul or kernel bugs first? | 10:35 |
| BenC | my comments on kernel bugs will probably me much more lengthy :) | 10:36 |
| zul | mdz: i think the amount of volume of kernel bugs that we have now are old stale bug reports that users never get back to us | 10:36 |
| mdz | BenC: zul; in fact we should probably defer the other conversation until later in the meeting after applications are processed | 10:36 |
| zul | ok not a problem | 10:36 |
| BenC | ok, in regards to zul, he's worked quite a bit with the kernel team | 10:37 |
| BenC | for the most part, he is very capable of handling the technical, and social aspects of working with the team. Always asks questions when he needs to and is receptive to comments and criticism | 10:37 |
| bddebian | zul has been helping quite a bit with Universe bugs too | 10:38 |
| ogra | and with grub iirc | 10:38 |
| BenC | I've only had a few occasions to comment on his work, but after talking with him about the issues, he's produced better work, so his willingness to learn is definitely there | 10:38 |
| BenC | zul: are you paying me by the word, or just for the end result? :) | 10:39 |
| fabbione | BenC: LOL | 10:39 |
| zul | lol | 10:39 |
| zul | end result..*ssh* :) | 10:40 |
| mdz | mjg59,Keybuk: any further questions? | 10:40 |
| mdz | I would like to talk about kernel bugs, but later | 10:40 |
| zul | as BenC said i am very willing to learn and i think i have come a long way from where I started | 10:40 |
| Keybuk | none for me | 10:40 |
| mjg59 | No, I'm good | 10:40 |
| mdz | ok, votes | 10:40 |
| mjg59 | +1 from me | 10:41 |
| mdz | +1, strong recommendations all around and substantial body of good quality contributions | 10:41 |
| Keybuk | +1 | 10:41 |
| mdz | zul: congratulations and welcome | 10:41 |
| dholbach | congratulations zul! | 10:41 |

| Keybuk | thanks for being patient :) | 10:42 |

| Seveas | sfllaw: collecting emblems? | 10:43 |
| Keybuk | mdz: I did? I approved him for both | 10:43 |
| mdz | Keybuk: I did -core-dev, and then you did -dev | 10:44 |
| Keybuk | well, I approved him for -dev on the basis you did -core-dev | 10:44 |
| Keybuk | right | 10:44 |
| bddebian | w00t zul | 10:44 |
| Keybuk | zakame: would you like to introduce yourself? | 10:44 |
| mdz | -core-dev implies membership in -dev | 10:44 |
| mdz | anyway, right | 10:44 |
| Keybuk | mdz: it does, but then I always figure that -core-dev may be lost without losing -dev ... so people should be in both, in case they resign from main but stay on in universe *shrug* | 10:45 |
| ogra | why wasnt he in -dev ? | 10:45 |
| zakame | Yes, I'm ZakElep, currently fixing bug 6548 as I write this :) | 10:45 |

| ogra | :P | 10:46 |
| BenC | FYI, I am typing up some notes on kernel bugs, so when we are ready to discuss, someone just ping me so I can lay it out | 10:46 |
| sfllaw | zakame: You should probably tell us more about your application. | 10:46 |
| mdz | BenC: ok | 10:46 |
| mdz | zakame: tell us about what you have been working on so far, and what you would hope to do as a core developer | 10:47 |
| zakame | I have been on the Ubuntu team since October 2005, and since then I have been working on various things for the distro, including translations, bug fixing and triage, and now I feel that its time for me to up the ante by working on doing and coding feature specs for ubuntu :) | 10:47 |
| zakame | sfllaw, mdz: sorry, my dialup's laggy :/ | 10:48 |
| Keybuk | and what in main particularly irks or interests you, that you would like to work on? | 10:48 |
| Keybuk | . o O { dial-up support? :p } | 10:48 |
| bddebian | heh | 10:48 |
| zakame | I have been noticing the comments on bugs lately in the devel list, and as a result I have been reasearching for putting together a 'smart' bug reporting tool | 10:49 |

| sabdfl | sounds good! | 10:54 |
| mdz | zakame: have you made any sponsored uploads to main? | 10:55 |
| zakame | mdz: I also want it to have better printing preferences imrpovements; there has been some cases other users have pointed me on, since I'm the debian packager for gtklp | 10:55 |
| sabdfl | i realised the meeting was underway when I got to the LP mails telling me sfllaw was a new dev - welcome aboard :-) | 10:55 |
| sivang | LOL | 10:55 |
| sabdfl | zakame: are you tracking upstream's plans for gtk printing prefs? | 10:56 |
| zakame | mdz: none at the moment, but I have pending debdiffs to upload for dh_iconcache | 10:56 |
| Keybuk | sabdfl: tsk, ignoring your IRC pings, eh? :) | 10:56 |
| sfllaw | sabdfl: Thanks! | 10:57 |

| mdz | zakame: most of the work that I've seen of yours has been high-volume but trivial changes, like dh_iconcache and syncs from Debian. The former is mostly a large one-time transition, and the latter doesn't require any upload privileges. Can you tell us what motivated you to apply for upload privileges to main? what do you plan to upload? | 11:02 |
| sabdfl | hey raphink, great work with KDE at LinuxTag | 11:03 |
| raphink | thanks sabdfl :) | 11:03 |
| sabdfl | zakame: would you be willing to avoid a core set of packages initially (stuff that might directly affect install or boot?) | 11:04 |
| zakame | sabdfl: if it is too intrusive, yes | 11:06 |
| sabdfl | zakame: can you give me an example of "too intrusive"? | 11:06 |
| sabdfl | and how would you get a non-intrusive change reviewed? | 11:06 |

| Keybuk | I'm not sure I'm happy with that idea ... if someone isn't ready to touch anything in main, they should stay in universe | 11:08 |
| Keybuk | being able to upload to main is because you can be trusted to work on packages that directly affect install and boot | 11:08 |
| sivang | Keybuk: one specific package comes into my mind ;-) | 11:09 |
| mdz | Keybuk: I agree; it's as much work to make that decision on a per-package bases as to review and sponsor the uploads | 11:09 |
| sabdfl | Keybuk: i don't know i think it's worth having guys who are confident to work quickly on light-touch issues | 11:09 |
| zakame | I see... ok, I suppose I will hold on thatfor now :) | 11:09 |
| sabdfl | i think its possible to exercise good judgement on that front | 11:10 |
| sabdfl | not commenting on zakame per se but i think if someone has energy, good judgement, and a good track record in MOTU then it's worth giving them the opportunity | 11:10 |
| Keybuk | if someone has a good track record in MOTU, then I generally don't see any obstacle for main upload | 11:11 |

| sabdfl | Keybuk: yes, for now | 11:15 |

| mdz | I would prefer to see zakame working with a core dev to sponsor uploads, to get some substantial experience and review there | 11:16 |
| sabdfl | zakame: keep track of all the work you do in universe too, so you can point us at a neat list | 11:16 |
| Keybuk | I agree also; I'm happy with zakame's work so far, but would like to see more "non-trivial" uploads to his name before approving him for main | 11:16 |

| sivang | and recently created the package for my python application, | 11:25 |
| sivang | based on the specifciation from UBZ HomeUserBackup (hubackup in universe) | 11:25 |
| Keybuk | You've even touched sysvinit, iirc? | 11:25 |
| sivang | indeed | 11:26 |
| sivang | ;-) | 11:26 |
| ogra | Keybuk, sivang was lacking packaging knowledge for quite some time but did awesome work on patches, recently he jumped on MOTU and also does packages now | 11:26 |
| Keybuk | who sponsored that one for you, ooi? | 11:26 |
| sivang | and I will never forget what you said wrt to my patch there :) | 11:26 |
| Keybuk | what did I say? | 11:26 |
| === ogra cheers for sivang ... | ||
| === sivang tries to recall the exact phrase | ||
| sabdfl | sivang: have you worked closely with any MOTU developers or core devs in particular? | 11:26 |
| Keybuk | (I'm entirely aware it may be me who sponsored it ... my memory is not what it was) | 11:26 |
| sivang | sabdfl: yes, pitti, seb128, mvo, and recently slomo who helped me get my pakcage in universe | 11:27 |
| === ogra remembers sivang working with pitti, dholbach, mvop | ||
| sivang | bddebian also helepd with reviews | 11:27 |
| pitti | yep, I uploaded several fixes from Sivan | 11:27 |
| sivang | I also worked with pitti on the DB2 packaging, even sent a couple of patches | 11:27 |
| dholbach | I had a look at hupbackup, but somebody else took it to improve and upload after me. | 11:28 |
| sivang | Keybuk: never patch debian/. using the patch system, (or from within debian.) IIRC ? is that so? :) | 11:28 |
| Keybuk | ahh | 11:28 |
| Keybuk | I get quite passionate about that :) | 11:28 |
| sabdfl | i'm certainly convinced of sivang's commitment, but can't comment on packaging skills. pitti, mvo, seb128? | 11:28 |
| sivang | Keybuk: indeed :) | 11:28 |

| sivang | oh, and just today I Helped slomo with tray icons transpernacy patches, | 11:29 |
| sivang | which are still pending review at http://muse.19inch.net/~sivan/tray_icon/ | 11:29 |
| pitti | from my experience, Sivan learns slowly, but steadily; he is cautious and I trust him to not do stuff he's unsure about without asking | 11:29 |
| seb128 | I think that sivang has some good willing but still lot to learn too ... | 11:29 |
| pitti | and his enthusiasm is remarkable | 11:30 |
| Keybuk | any further questions for sivang? | 11:30 |
| Keybuk | mdz, mjg59 ? | 11:30 |
| mdz | yes | 11:30 |
| sivang | ALl I can say my performance in studying will be much improved from now on, I feel I am really managing to tackle things more neatly and quickly then before. I guess that comes over time of experience on the project. | 11:31 |
| sabdfl | +1 from me for sivang then | 11:31 |
| mdz | sivang: while developing your backup application, you waited a long time before uploading your packages, rather than developing them incrementally within Ubuntu. why did you choose this approach? | 11:31 |
| mdz | in a collaborative project, it is important to work transparently, by making your work visible throughout the development process | 11:32 |
| sivang | mdz: looking back, I feel I had been a bit harsh on myself. I felt it was not appropriate to release the project to the wild in the condition it was then. regardless of that, I registered the branch in LP and tried to interest other memebers of the team (community wise) in the project, but did not get too much resonse. | 11:33 |
| sivang | mdz: again, the branch was available and viewable, even through LP's revision control | 11:34 |
| sivang | https://launchpad.net/people/sivan/+branch/hubackup/devel-main | 11:34 |
| mdz | very few people will go to your LP page and check out a bzr branch, compared to having a package in universe | 11:34 |
| mdz | the "release early, release often" mantra is key to what we do | 11:35 |
| sivang | I agree, this is correct. Feeling it was not appropriate at that time to put in as a package in universe, I approached people or respoded to peopel who showed interest in the specificaiton. This might have been a mistake. | 11:35 |
| highvoltage | mdz: sorry for asking a possibly off-topic and ignorant question, but shouldn't a package be of a certain quality first before it goes into universe? | 11:35 |
| === Keybuk hides ... I can't really comment here ... I never upload anything I work on until I'm happy with it <g> | ||
| raphink | highvoltage: this is why REVU exists | 11:36 |
| sabdfl | highvoltage: that's why we need.... Personal Package Archives! Coming SOON to a Launchpad near YOU | 11:36 |
| highvoltage | yay! | 11:36 |
| Keybuk | sabdfl: are they? \o/ | 11:36 |
| sivang | mdz: I was not happy with the application until it fulfilled it's main functionaly. when it did so, I released the package to universe. | 11:36 |
| sabdfl | Keybuk: sure, ask Kinnison | 11:36 |
| mdz | highvoltage: it should have a basic level of functionality; it does not need to be feature complete or bug-free | 11:36 |
| sivang | (including the important bits) | 11:36 |
| Keybuk | exxxxcellent, one of the remaining blockers for HCT that | 11:36 |
| === Keybuk shall send a sarcastic mail to mbp for not keeping him updated <g> | ||
| zakame | sabdfl: coolness! | 11:37 |
| mdz | sivang: you asked for your package to be included in the release, even though it had not been uploaded yet (meaning you did not feel it was ready for people to even test yet) | 11:37 |
| sivang | mdz: dealing with application that can screw one's home folder and CDs I felt proper testing should be done prior and after completing the main functionality. | 11:37 |
| sabdfl | can we come to a decision on sivang? | 11:37 |
| sabdfl | sivang: reasonable - did you publish it outside the archive? | 11:37 |
| sivang | sabdfl: outside the bzr branch you mean? | 11:38 |
| sabdfl | yes, as debs people could test | 11:38 |
| sivang | mdz: I believed I could make it for this release, I admit I had wrong esitmated the time to reach the the point where it could be presented to people. assuming so without publishing debs for testing was wrong, that's true. | 11:39 |
| sivang | sabdfl: no :-/ | 11:39 |
| sivang | sabdfl: for intersted people, I instructed to bzr branch it, and then test it. | 11:39 |
| mdz | sivang: thanks for the explanation; I wanted to understand your thinking because you seemed confused about why it couldn't be included | 11:40 |
| mdz | sivang: I've seen now that it's in universe, you're already getting good feedback | 11:40 |
| sivang | mdz: I believe I was, I was too optimistic about how much time would need to get from one milestone to the other, which flawed my judgment. | 11:40 |
| sivang | mdz: I know more then know how every small detail in a spec, can result in days of implementation. this fact should be of warning for us. | 11:41 |
| mdz | I'm finished with my questions | 11:41 |
| sivang | (now) | 11:41 |
| sivang | mdz: yes, I did got some nic feedback and interest | 11:41 |
| mdz | votes regarding sivang for ubuntu-dev? | 11:42 |
| sabdfl | +1 | 11:42 |
| mdz | +1 | 11:42 |
| Keybuk | +1 from me | 11:42 |
| sivang | mdz: (the gui needs more work, though :p) | 11:43 |
| mjg59 | +1, yes | 11:43 |
| ogra | yay, welcome sivang | 11:43 |

| mdz | any last-minute business to discuss? | 11:44 |
| sivang | pitti: thank you! | 11:45 |
| sabdfl | is ubuntu-dev a member of ubuntumembers yet? | 11:45 |
| ogra | didnt BenC want to discuss kernel bug handling ? | 11:45 |
| mdz | after the TB meeting is adjourned, we're going to have a discussion about kernel QA on #ubuntu-kernel with BenC & co. | 11:45 |
| sabdfl | looks like it isn't | 11:45 |
| ogra | ah | 11:45 |
| ogra | :) | 11:45 |
| BenC | ok | 11:45 |
| mdz | sabdfl: is that what the CC resolved? | 11:45 |
| sivang | ogra: we also talked about that you need to understand the make file language hand by hand :) | 11:45 |
| sabdfl | i believe so, yes | 11:45 |
| === BenC [n=bcollins@debian/developer/bcollins] has left #ubuntu-meeting ["Ex-Chat"] | ||
| ogra | sivang, hehe, yes | 11:45 |
| sabdfl | in other words, this group should also be considering substantial-and-sustained contribution | 11:46 |
| sabdfl | but i think that's implicit, even for ubuntu-dev | 11:46 |
| sabdfl | as sivang just found out :-) | 11:46 |
| dholbach | good night | 11:46 |

| sabdfl | done | 11:47 |
| sabdfl | i'd like to do this for any team which has a robust structure and leadership | 11:48 |
| sabdfl | and in the case of large groups, like the forums, governance | 11:48 |
