Keybuknothing for today09:33
mdzlooks like it's free09:33
Keybukthough where's the CC in that?09:33
mdzmust have already happened?09:33
Keybukoh, must have already happened09:33
ogradropped for today09:33
ograsbdfl is travelling, colin on vacation09:34
mdzso, impromptu techboard meeting to discuss topics for Paris09:34
ogra+a09:34
Keybukthere's still 27 not yet approved or declined, shall we look at those first>?09:34
=== LaserJock [n=mantha@ubuntu/member/laserjock] has joined #ubuntu-meeting
mdzKeybuk: yes, I didn't have a chance on monday as planned due to being unable to stand up09:35
mdzunfortunately it looks like the trivial spec tracker changes I asked for didn't make it in, so this is still a pain09:35
Keybukyeah, I was about to say ... I swear they promised that they would be hyperlinks this week09:35
mdzbasically what I've been doing is, for each spec in the list, searching around to find the spec page for it09:35
=== highvoltage listens in
mdzI check to see if anyone associated with the spec is actually attending the conference09:36
mdzor if it's something we ought to talk about anyway09:36
=== ogra subscribed to all edubuntu specs ... in case you need an overview of them
Specoh god, a meeting of specs.09:37
mdzogra: did you submit them all for paris last week?09:37
ograyeps09:37

mdzSpec: you might want to leave the channel for a bit ;-)09:37
ogralol09:37
Specit's interesting though, i got a spec submitted/approved already :p09:37
KeybukHoly bad-choice-of-nickname, Spec-man!09:37
mdzKeybuk: I fear, though, that sabdfl was going over that list as well, and not using the same approach09:37
mdzso there may be stuff approved where there won't be anyone to talk about it09:38
mdzs/approved/accepted/09:38
Keybukat one point I was convinced that there was automatic processing going on09:38
KeybukI assigned a spec to the meeting and it was *instantly* approved09:38
mdzyeah, I think that was him.  unfortunately there's no mail notification either09:38
=== mdz scribbles on his spec tracker notes some more
mdzthere are 126 accepted and I know I didn't do more than half of that09:39
KeybukI did add a few specs to the meeting which nobody else had09:39
Keybukbut only where I knew they were things other people wanted to talk about09:39
Keybuke.g. libata-for-all09:39
Keybukthat was the one, in fact, that went straight to accepted without collecting 200$09:39
mdzwe also need to reset the status for specs which are being reproposed from an earlier cycle09:40
mdzI've been doing that where I see it09:40
mdzit looks like early-userspace was just edited and reproposed, though it's a different spec09:41
mdzhow confusing09:42
mdzhmm, someone helpfully added my old grub2 spec to paris, which I had completely forgotten I'd entered09:42
KeybukI'd love an activity log for specs too09:43
Keybukcan you add that to your scribbles? :)09:43
mdzer, ubuntu-meta-from-bzr was proposed and accepted when it's already implemented09:43
mdz(done)09:44
Keybukyes, that's because Colin had a few hours09:44
Keybukfix-mom is likely to be implemented before09:44
mdzpacketcd is owned by someone who isn't coming09:44

mdzKeybuk: who registered it?09:52
Keybukarch-change-i386-to-i686 => not attending (also we decided not to do this yet)09:52
mdzI think mvo may actually be interested in it09:52
Keybukmdz: "tenshu"09:52
mdzmvo: confirm or deny?09:52
mvoKeybuk: I am interessted in this, just it should be merged with apt-ddtp, no?09:53
Keybukok, I'll mark it superceded by that spec09:53
mdzKeybuk: I'm also setting the assignee to be the registrant where registrant is null09:54
mdzsince that's sort of the theme for edgy, and assignee shows up in the table while registrant doesn't09:54
Keybukubuntu-directory-server => not attending09:54
mvoKeybuk: is it on the paris spec table? I seem to be unable to find it09:54
Keybukmvo: it was in the proposed list09:54

Keybukhmm, it's SoC 2006 allegedly, is that right?10:03
mvoKeybuk: yes, its a SoC project now, I think it is cool and doable10:04
Keybukmvo: is there any point discussing it at UFK then?10:04
Keybukgiven the author isn't coming10:04
mvoKeybuk: probably not, no - only if paul is coming 10:04
Keybuk"paul" ?10:05
mvopaul sladen10:05
Keybukhe's listed as unlikely10:05
mvohe seems to have some more generic plans for all of it I would be interessted to talk to him10:05
mvook10:05
mvoI'll ask him10:05
mvobut without sladen, there is little point in scheduling the spec10:06

mdz*shrug*10:15
KeybukI did subscribe to things on a "if they're on the list, I may want to listen in" basis10:15

mdzthe "needs further discussion" flag should probably be cleared globally for paris10:19
Keybukall specs should have an assignee, yes?10:19
mdzit's meant to be per-meeting state but isn't10:19
Keybuk"set globally", you mean?10:19
mdzKeybuk: I'm assigning where the person is a known developer10:19

=== Keybuk wonders what happened to the "workload" thing
mdzKeybuk: I think it's only on the distrorelease10:31
ograthe hwdb-client stuff is covered by a whishlist bugy anyway and the 3d driver stuff should be covered by a "better-x-detection" spec10:31
Keybukmdz: talking of which, should these all be targeted to edgy?10:31
Keybukor only after approval?10:32
Keybukthat field seems a bit of a no-op though10:32
Keybukmdz: to be fair to "gene", he did say in the status that he was confused by the meaning of the "Name:" field10:32
mdzI think maybe we should clear the priorities, since it's only set for old specs and their priority is unlikely to be the same for edgy10:32
mdzKeybuk: I had planned to wait until the specs were written actually10:33
Keybukmdz: seems fair (to both)10:33

Keybukmdz: should we clear the "Basic direction approved?" flag ?10:45
mdzoh, hmm, I was looking at the wrong page, there are more priorities to review10:45
ajmitchyeah, I would have applied/begged for sponsorship, except the timing is wrong :)10:45
mdzKeybuk: not in every case, no10:46
mdzah, no, I just got lost in my tabs. priorities are ok10:46
Keybukmdz: the only spec which has it set is native-java-gcj10:46
mdzKeybuk: odd, I thought that was new10:47
mdzyes, that should be cleared10:47
Keybukheh, wonder whether someone was setting their own status there <g>10:48
KeybukI choose not to change the priority of "tab-consistency" :)10:48
mdzsmart move10:48
mdzKeybuk: anything which isn't specific enough should be marked informational, with the expectation that it'll be broken down into smaller specs10:49
Keybukit's a bit hard definining specific without seeing the spec10:50
mdzmailed iwj about package-dependency-fix10:50
mdzthe summary should be good enough to know what it is about, if not, the responsible party needs to be nagged10:50
Keybukjust gonna grab some tea, brb10:52

mdzogra: do you have a spec registered for completing the automation of the ltsp install?10:59
mdzogra: if not, please put one in.  I know you already said you had a branch but it needs to be tracked10:59
ogranope, i saw that as general improvement of the package and didnt see a need to spec that10:59
ograi havent finished the work on that branch when you said i should keep it for edgy 11:00
ograandit was only changes in the ueb, it wouldnt work from the package alone, that would probably need discussion ...11:01

Keybukjenda: Ubuntu Development Summit (Paris)  spec meeting11:06
Specjenda: it's a meeting of specs11:06
mdzhmm, we should clear the release goal for those still targeting dapper11:06
Keybukmdz: oh, Colin said he wants all of his specs to be Essential again :)11:07
Keybukmdz: I tried, I can't clear it :-/11:07
mdzI'm doing it11:07
=== jenda sees only one spec... but sure :)
mdzKeybuk: did he call you during his holiday to let you know? ;-)11:07
Keybukmdz: he told me so in London11:07
Keybukhe said "I swear, if all my specs are NOT Essential this time, I'm leaving"11:07
Keybukhmm, maybe the "NOT" wasn't in there :p11:08
mdzKeybuk: ugh, you're right, it seems impossible to clear11:08
mdzKeybuk: could you file a bug about that?11:08
=== rikai [n=kitty@pool-72-65-96-127.ptldme.east.verizon.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting
Keybukholy cow, there's a "blueprint" product11:08
Keybukmdz: what happens if you "decline" the spec for dapper, does it go away?11:09
mdzmvo: isn't auto-dist-upgrade-testing already implemented?11:10
mdzKeybuk: I don't know; the ones I see are Accepted, not Proposed11:10
Keybukyeah, there does not appear to be a way to un-accept them11:10
mdzthe drop-down for setting the release goal isn't even populated correctly; it's surely a bug11:11
mdzthose specs are targeted for dapper, but the box defaults to (no value), which won't even validate11:11
mvomdz: not fully/like I want it11:11
Keybukyeah, it appears that "adds another release goal"11:12

mdzMithrandir: what's the relationship between livecd-sessions and livecd-write-as-you-go?11:14
mdzis write-as-you-go likely to use the same session infrastructure?11:14
mdzi.e., is it a depndency?11:14
Mithrandiryes, I think so.11:15
MithrandirI think I have enough parts implemented already to do l-w-a-y-g, but it should at least be thought about.11:15
Mithrandiras in, -sessions and write-as-you-go will most likely share a bunch more of the code.11:16
mdzKeybuk: I think we should set the tech board as approver for all specs for now11:17
mdzso that we get notifications of changes11:17
Keybukok, I'll go through them and do that now11:18
=== Keybuk hugs Linky
mdzlinky?11:19
ograyour dog ? 11:19
mdzKeybuk: is that a LP screen scraper?  if so, I want a copy :-P11:19
Keybukit's a firefox extension, has an "open all links in tabs" feature :p11:20
Keybukdamned handy for LP11:20
ograyou could just hold down ctrl all the time  :)11:20
ograor tape it ...11:20

mdzI just middle-click, and have firefox set to open tabs in the background11:23
mdzKeybuk: isn't *all* links a bit more than you typically want?11:23
=== lucas [n=lucas@ubuntu/member/lucas] has joined #ubuntu-meeting
Keybukmdz: well, normally yes11:24
Keybukit pops up a dialog and you can filter it out11:24
Keybukso I go "open all links in tabs" -> "match /+spec/" -> ok11:24
Keybukmdz: I can't do rosetta-oo-import-export11:29
KeybukI like the way Mark registers specs and sets himself as the approver11:32
Keybuk(tab-consistency)11:32
mdzok, first pass of prioritization is done11:34
ogrameh ...11:35
=== ogra doesnt like the prios he sees
mdzhigh ~= "we should do this", medium ~= "would be cool", low ~= "other things are more important", undefined ~= undecided11:35
ograyep, grokked that ... but i dont see student control panel as high or ltsp-management-gui as low11:36
mdzessential is only sab-override at this point; probably more things will become essential11:36
=== indro [n=indro@80-218-247-93.dclient.hispeed.ch] has left #ubuntu-meeting ["Verlassend"]
mdzogra: student control panel is something you told me the community wants very much, while the management gui you said was a pet project of yours11:36

ograbut s-c-p is already existing and has some drive in the community, i can hand it to someone11:37
Keybuk!?! @ font-design-toolkit11:38
ograwhile i wuldnt like that for ltsp-manager until the initial featureset is done ...11:38
Keybukoh, registrant is just unconfirmed as coming11:39
mdzoh? I thought he was coming11:40
Keybukhe's french, so probably11:40
Keybukhttps://launchpad.net/products/rosetta/+spec/gnome-mount11:40
Keybuk^^ why is that a rosetta spec?!11:40
ograand i also saw edubuntu-edgy-cd-diet as a spec what to drop and what to keep on the CD based on numbers and measurements from the BOF shrinking the edubuntu CD is also essential11:40

Keybukmdz: most edgy specs would seem to default to "medium" ?11:45
mdzKeybuk: in what way do you mean?11:48
mdzas in, people are expected to propose things based on coolness?11:48
Keybukwell, edgy specs are developer personal itches which amounts to "would be cool" .. unless there's a particular reason that it's higher or lower11:48
Keybukindeed11:48
Keybukall specs (except ~4) are approver: techboard now11:51
mdzKeybuk: priority is a distro-level concept, though, rather than the registrant's perspective11:53
Keybuktrue, true11:53
mdzit's also one of the main scheduling constraints11:53
mdzso it's also "how important is it that we spend face time on this"11:53
mdzsimpler stuff is likely to get done on its own without a lot of discussion, or can be discussed by mail11:54
KeybukI've done a pass over them as well11:54
Keybukbuild-failure-process ... that one seems useful?  high?11:57
mdzKeybuk: oh, yes11:57
mdzI think that's one where I needed to both set it to informational and set the priority, and forgot one11:58
mdzmaybe I should open two tabs in those cases :-P11:58
KeybukI open all of the change tabs at once, and then hunt around for the thing I was looking for11:58
ajmitchI get worried when I see specs name 'edgy-content'11:58
ajmitchthat has so many meanings..11:58
Keybukubiquity-advanced-partitioner => medium ?11:58
mdzKeybuk: yeah12:00
Keybukhmm, package-dependency-fix worries me ... I have a feeling Ian wants to "change things" with Replaces12:00
Keybuklive-cd-stacked-filesystems -- that will let us do other cool things like a triple-arch DVD ... medium?12:01
mdzKeybuk: the idea of demanding more complexity from unionfs frightens me12:02
Keybukunionfs hasn't proved to be the brittle link in the chain though12:02
