| tomv | Hi. I'm kind of concerned about the ubuntu universe versions of some packages I maintain for Debian. Is there someone in the MOTU team who wants to look at libaqbanking and libchipcard2? | 09:39 |
| ajmitch | what problems are there? I see they're a few versions behind in edgy, but we've hit freeze time now - need to get approval to update | 09:41 |
| tomv | ajmitch: the problems are a couple of Debian bugs ranging from important to RC, a memory leak, problems with accessing a class of USB chipcard readers and several bugs that concerning iTAN-based online banking. | 09:47 |
| ajmitch | sounds reasonable, can you look at the last wiki page in the topic & file bugs about these? I'd hate to ship your packages with RC bugs | 09:49 |
| tomv | ajmitch: The problem is that these bugs, while no RC in the Debian sense (makes packages useless for everyone), make the packages completely dysfunctional for people affected, often with opaque error messages. | 09:49 |
| ajmitch | that's still serious enough to get them into edgy | 09:50 |
| ajmitch | & we tend to trust the debian maintainer's word on this | 09:51 |
| tomv | ajmitch: Sorry, but I do believe that unless someone really wants online banking in edgy and will subscribe to the upstream mailing list, this project is doomed to fail. | 09:51 |
| tomv | ajmitch: That's very nice, but I'm not that trustworthy. :) | 09:51 |
| ajmitch | 'this project' being? | 09:51 |
| ajmitch | I've seen some of your packaging :) | 09:51 |
| tomv | The project "having consistently good packages is Ubuntu". | 09:51 |
| ajmitch | s/seen/inherited/ | 09:51 |
| tomv | Hey, I'm only responsible for the diff. :) | 09:52 |
| tomv | (the interdiff, that is...) | 09:52 |
| tomv | ajmitch: Really, I'm not in a too good position to summarize all problems either, because I don't have a lot of bank accounts to transfer money around. :) | 09:53 |
| ajmitch | hehe | 09:53 |
| jldugger | i wouldn't mind online banking, but i think my bank does | 09:53 |

| ajmitch | trying to track bugs in all the universe packages is always a challenge, true | 09:53 |
| tomv | ajmitch: and I'm not envying you for the task, either... | 09:54 |
| ajmitch | tomv: just join us :) | 09:54 |
| tomv | ajmitch: OK, so I can try to make the changelog of upstream available in a more ready format, they're pretty good at documenting their fixes. | 09:55 |
| ajmitch | we need to get that list of bugs that are closed in debian & waiting for us to grab - keybuk did generate them at some point | 09:56 |
| ajmitch | Burgundavia: ping | 09:56 |
| tomv | ajmitch: I don't want to make Ubuntu Debian. Whatever that means. | 09:56 |
| ajmitch | layers & layers of bureaucracy? | 09:56 |
| tomv | ajmitch: Every package cared for. :) | 09:56 |
| tomv | :p | 09:56 |
| Burgundavia | ajmitch: pong | 09:56 |
| ajmitch | heh, debian has MIA maintainers as well | 09:57 |
| Burgundavia | ajmitch: those lists are still available | 09:57 |
| ajmitch | Burgundavia: is there some way you can redirect those MoM reports by keybuk? | 09:57 |
| Burgundavia | yes, manually | 09:57 |
| ajmitch | so we have to pester keybuk to get him to change the address? | 09:57 |
| tomv | ajmitch: OK, I'll be off filing ubuntu bugs. :) | 09:57 |
| ajmitch | I'd rather not write my own code to grab the BTS | 09:57 |
| ajmitch | tomv: thanks very much :) | 09:58 |
| Burgundavia | ajmitch: no, I can redirect large numbers in a single batch | 09:58 |
| ajmitch | Burgundavia: maybe to universe-bugs or similar | 09:59 |
| ajmitch | I know this was discussed briefly | 09:59 |
| ajmitch | ah, keybuk is alive as well | 09:59 |
| Burgundavia | yes, it was discussed recently | 09:59 |

| imbrandon | hover* | 11:11 |
| ajmitch | I doubt it | 11:11 |
| ajmitch | that would be a 'feature' | 11:11 |
| imbrandon | heh | 11:11 |
| StevenK | imbrandon: Shhh, if you talk about the clock applet, they'll remove it | 11:12 |
| imbrandon | hahaha | 11:12 |
| imbrandon | ok so umm how do you all easily check times in other zones ? | 11:12 |
| imbrandon | or do you hehe | 11:13 |
| imbrandon | "you all" as in normal gnome users | 11:13 |
| ajmitch | I always convert in my head :) | 11:13 |

| Hobbsee | good reason not to use gnome | 11:17 |
| Hobbsee | then again, if i talk about gnome, will they remove it too? | 11:17 |
| ajmitch | no | 11:17 |
| Hobbsee | :P | 11:17 |
| Hobbsee | awww | 11:18 |
| imbrandon | Hobbsee, yea but since horatio died and my laptop was already loaded with gnome i dident want to reinstall | 11:18 |
| ajmitch | they'll just laugh at you | 11:18 |
| Hobbsee | ajmitch: they seem to do that anyway, so... | 11:18 |
| ajmitch | imbrandon: why would you reinstall? | 11:18 |
| imbrandon | well install -kubuntu-desktop and remove gnome | 11:18 |
| imbrandon | etc etc etc | 11:18 |
| imbrandon | not /really/ "reinstall" link windows | 11:18 |
| imbrandon | like* | 11:18 |
| imbrandon | gives me a nice view of the "other side" so when i get kde back i'll love it that much more ;) | 11:19 |
| imbrandon | sides gnome runs on my lappy faster ;) | 11:19 |
| imbrandon | shhhh i dident say that | 11:19 |
| ajmitch | no surprise | 11:20 |
| imbrandon | it lacks a few minor things i'm used to , but nothing major ( little stuff like the clock etc ) | 11:20 |
| imbrandon | and i'm sure most of it is i just dont have it 100% configured the way i would like yet | 11:21 |
| imbrandon | i do have it KDEized alot ( as in one pannel at the bottom, the application menus replaced with the main menu , pannel applet placings etc ) | 11:22 |

| === TheMuso goes to check /var/crash | ||
| TheMuso | Nope, nothing in there. | 12:34 |
| StevenK | TheMuso: I managed to kill it on my laptop. Try and bring up the Desktop Background Preferences, that killed it everytime on Bart's machine. | 12:35 |
| StevenK | TheMuso: My main problem is I can't strace or gdb at-spi-registryd. | 12:36 |
| TheMuso | Yeah I know. I tried that myself as well. | 12:38 |
| StevenK | I haven't read the code, but I can't see why it would. Unless it has fucked signal handlers or something. | 12:39 |
| TheMuso | Seems fine here. | 12:41 |
| TheMuso | This is on an HD install. | 12:41 |

| StevenK | TheMuso: Kay. | 12:43 |
| StevenK | TheMuso: I just get lost with all this accessibility stuff. It doesn't help that Bart keeps asking me for help with it. | 12:43 |
| TheMuso | Understandable. | 12:44 |
| StevenK | TheMuso: Oh yes, Bart and I solved the orca problem. | 12:45 |
| TheMuso | What was it? | 12:45 |
| StevenK | TheMuso: We're not sure to be honest. :-) | 12:45 |

| TheMuso | Welcome. You'll have fun. | 04:30 |
| TheMuso | Tis an awesome experience. | 04:30 |
| imbrandon | gnomefreak, probably as there are alot of people seeming to use svn snapshots although a release would be nice | 04:30 |
| imbrandon | TheMuso, you not makin this one ? | 04:30 |
| gnomefreak | imbrandon: i dont remember a release in site (i think thats normal for them though) | 04:31 |
| TheMuso | Very likely not. Haven't received an email yet | 04:31 |
| imbrandon | ahh | 04:31 |
| imbrandon | ;( | 04:31 |
| TheMuso | Since I went to the last one as well. :) | 04:31 |
| TheMuso | Ah well. | 04:31 |
| imbrandon | true , from what i've been told the dont sponsor 2 times in a row afaik | 04:31 |
| imbrandon | only like ever other time or somethign | 04:31 |
| TheMuso | Thats what I've heard as well | 04:31 |
| imbrandon | i dunno for sure though | 04:32 |
| gnomefreak | Hawkwin^d has a great repo for it and its updated alot i was trying to get into source-o-matic | 04:32 |
| === StevenK is still pondering Debconf 7 | ||
| TheMuso | Worth a shot anyway | 04:32 |
| imbrandon | TheMuso, definately | 04:32 |
| imbrandon | gnomefreak, yea i'm aware, honestly i am in hopes Hawkwind will do the MOTU thing and keep it upto date in edgy+1 universe | 04:32 |
| imbrandon | ;) | 04:33 |
| TheMuso | And I'm not very geographically close. | 04:33 |
| imbrandon | ahh very true | 04:33 |
| TheMuso | As long as there is a good way people outside the conference can participate, I'm happy. | 04:33 |
| TheMuso | Although I still don't like how the the schedules will be done from day to day. | 04:33 |
| gnomefreak | imbrandon: i think that sounds like a great idea if he will accept. he still hasnt got a edgy repo yet and its not installible on edgy yet | 04:33 |
| imbrandon | i'll definately try to keep on peoples minds i rember the hardships from last time | 04:33 |
| TheMuso | Well, perhaps next time, Hobbsee can go for sponsorship as well. I reckon she'd get it. | 04:35 |
| Hobbsee | TheMuso: yeah, maybe. | 04:36 |
| StevenK | TheMuso: There might be other factors. | 04:36 |
| TheMuso | StevenK: I am well aware of that | 04:36 |
| === StevenK is still trying to decide between Debconf 7 and a UDS | ||
| imbrandon | StevenK, UDS ;) | 04:37 |
| StevenK | I suspect my wife will incredibly dislike the answer. | 04:37 |
| TheMuso | Anyway, I really must get to bed. | 04:37 |
| imbrandon | StevenK, you cringe when we ask you about DD stuff ;) | 04:37 |
| imbrandon | so UDS ;) | 04:37 |
| imbrandon | TheMuso, gnight bro | 04:37 |
| StevenK | TheMuso: Night | 04:37 |
| TheMuso | Night guys. | 04:37 |
| Hobbsee | night TheMuso | 04:39 |
| Hobbsee | StevenK: UDS :P | 04:39 |
| StevenK | imbrandon: The problem is that Debconf 7 is in Edinburg. Where my wife *really* wants to visit, since her fathers family hail from around there. | 04:39 |
| StevenK | imbrandon: I feel, like Keybuk does, that I'm not a part of the DD community any more, which is sad. This makes me reconsider Debconf 7 | 04:41 |
| Riddell | but but... Edinburgh! | 04:42 |
| imbrandon | hehe | 04:42 |
| StevenK | The next UDS needs to happen in July 2007 :-P | 04:43 |
| StevenK | In Edinburgh | 04:43 |
| imbrandon | heh | 04:43 |
| Riddell | too right, my flat has about 6 times the bandwidth of certain other ubuntu conferences | 04:45 |
| imbrandon | hahaha | 04:46 |
| imbrandon | i am thinking googleplex will have plenty o bandwidth though | 04:46 |
| Riddell | plus that would mean having 100% of the interesting free software community conferences in Britain | 04:46 |
| imbrandon | maybe by that time i will have moved to the EU also ;) | 04:46 |

| gnomefreak | cool | 05:48 |
| Hawkwind | I feel I've still got some learning to do when it comes to building debs and doing them good enough to get approved for REVU. I'm curious if the E17 debs would pass or not currently | 05:48 |

| dholbach | LaserJock: you might try | 07:04 |
| LaserJock | dholbach: I was wondering what your reasoning behind getting goffice from Debian experimental was | 07:05 |
| LaserJock | dholbach: does gnumeric really require that version? | 07:05 |
| dholbach | LaserJock: when? where? | 07:05 |
| === No1Viking [n=micke@h-83-140-104-74.ip.rixbredband.se] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| LaserJock | sorry | 07:05 |
| LaserJock | edgy's gnumeric depends on libgoffice-0-3 | 07:05 |
| LaserJock | but that is a Debian experimental package | 07:06 |
| LaserJock | that i've been told is quite unstable | 07:06 |
| dholbach | it needs it | 07:06 |
| dholbach | that's why | 07:06 |
| dholbach | 1.7.0 is the gnumeric "unstable" branch, it needs that version of goffice | 07:06 |
| LaserJock | ok | 07:06 |
| dholbach | and the only change in goffice was afaik a change in arguments of a function | 07:06 |
| dholbach | which brought a soname change | 07:06 |
| dholbach | so there are no huge differences | 07:07 |
| dholbach | iirc | 07:07 |
| dholbach | it's been a while since we did that | 07:07 |
| LaserJock | heh, except I'm trying to get a package in that FTBFS with that version of goffice | 07:07 |
| LaserJock | oh well, edgy+1 I think ;-) | 07:07 |
| dholbach | Mon, 3 Jul 2006 | 07:07 |
| dholbach | I'm sure it's a change in arguments | 07:08 |
| LaserJock | I just wondered if gnumeric's dependency was strict on that version of goffice | 07:08 |
| dholbach | where is the build log? | 07:08 |
| LaserJock | I don't have one | 07:08 |
| LaserJock | we were trying to get a package from Debian in last minute | 07:08 |
| dholbach | how do you know it ftbfs? | 07:08 |
| LaserJock | anyway, it's a little late | 07:08 |
| LaserJock | because the author and Debian maintainer told me so | 07:08 |
| dholbach | well | 07:09 |
| dholbach | it'd be nice to see the last messages from the ftbfs | 07:09 |
| LaserJock | sure | 07:09 |
| LaserJock | it could be a small thing | 07:09 |
| dholbach | i'm sure there's not much required to fix it again | 07:09 |
| LaserJock | but it's past Universe Freeze | 07:09 |
| LaserJock | so I'll probably defer it to Edgy+1 | 07:09 |
| LaserJock | I just wish I found out sooner | 07:09 |
| LaserJock | as I would have tried to fix it | 07:09 |
| LaserJock | dholbach: ok, I'll leave you alone now | 07:10 |
| LaserJock | ;-) | 07:10 |
| dholbach | LaserJock: if we can fix it with a UVF we should do it | 07:10 |
| dholbach | LaserJock: but I'm not keeping you here - have a nice day | 07:10 |
| LaserJock | dholbach: it would be a NEW package | 07:11 |
| dholbach | get it reviewed, file a uvf for it | 07:11 |

| crimsun | superm1: e-mail jono bacon (jono@ubuntu.com) | 09:00 |
| superm1 | Ok. will do | 09:00 |
| superm1 | thanks again. I'm gonna get going then | 09:01 |

| LaserJock | that's not a bashism is it? I didn't think it was | 09:02 |
| geser | I'm looking at the packages with unmet deps and need now an advise how to resolve the gnustep packages | 09:09 |
| geser | a simple rebuild won't fix it | 09:09 |
| geser | as far as I tracked it back two packages from debian are needed to be synced (new upstream versions) | 09:10 |
| geser | then can the induvial packages be synced to get rid of this unmet dep | 09:11 |
| LaserJock | k | 09:11 |
| === plugwash [i=plugwash@p10link.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| geser | should sync request + uvf exceptions be filed for these packages? | 09:12 |
| LaserJock | are they new upstream versions? | 09:13 |
| lfittl | sharms: what do you need to know about ogre? | 09:14 |
| sharms | lfittl: oh the current package just seems like a huge mess and is out of date, I think we just sync it straight from debian. I would like to make a more up to date one, but don't even know the first place to start | 09:14 |
| lfittl | sharms: I already have a almost finished one here, just need to clean some stuff up and test it ;) | 09:15 |
| lfittl | but as there are some issues that I want to resolve (samples can't be shipped because of media file license issues), it probably won't make it into edgy | 09:15 |
| sharms | lfittl: yeah I was thinking edgy + 1 | 09:16 |
| sharms | lfittl: I looked at it one day but it was a little to big for me to handle yet | 09:16 |
| lfittl | sharms: I see, problem is that I already did most work on it, so there is little to do, sry for that | 09:17 |
| sharms | lfittl: I take that as a gift for sure :) Do you have a repository up? | 09:18 |

| geser | LaserJock: yes, gnustep-make 1.13.0-1 (ubuntu: 1.12.0-2) is needed for gnustep-base 1.13.0-3 (ubuntu: 1.11.2-3) which is needed for gnustep-gui 0.11.0-2 (ubuntu: 0.10.2-1) which is needed for gnustep-back 0.11.0-2 which currently FTBFS | 09:23 |
| LaserJock | sounds good, make it so ;-) | 09:24 |
| geser | gnustep-back produced gnustep-back0.10 which is now missing | 09:24 |

| dholbach | thanks a lot | 09:48 |
| ajmitch | of course sabdfl asked about how good we are at following up with REVU... | 09:48 |
| === ajmitch sighs | ||
| dholbach | I hope we find some good ideas to get things rolling | 09:49 |
| ajmitch | ideas are fine, but we need more people reviewing | 09:49 |
| ajmitch | the *first* upload I see from ahod on revu for libflaim is about 1 or 2 days ago | 09:50 |
| dholbach | *nod* | 09:51 |
| crimsun | how large is the core dedicated MOTU group, anyway? It always seems to be a resource issue for REVU. | 09:51 |
| LaserJock | I wanted to tell him that if he hired some more MOTUs and bought us a pbuilder farm we'd get it done faster ;-) | 09:51 |
| ajmitch | maybe 5-10 people if we're lucky | 09:51 |
| LaserJock | yeah | 09:51 |
| ajmitch | and of those 5-10 people, I'd say < 5 regularly review stuff | 09:52 |
| crimsun | We simply can't scale; all the MOTU who are paid Canonical employees are tied up with other things | 09:52 |
| dholbach | I should review some more :-/ | 09:52 |
| ajmitch | and that will continue | 09:52 |
| ajmitch | dholbach: you shouldn't have to | 09:52 |
| LaserJock | right | 09:52 |

| LaserJock | we have really 2 problems that we need to attack | 10:03 |
| LaserJock | 1) we need more people | 10:03 |
| LaserJock | 2) we need more quality people | 10:03 |
| bddebian | 3) We need leadership | 10:03 |
| ajmitch | bddebian: you can solve 3) | 10:04 |
| LaserJock | perhaps | 10:04 |
| crimsun | then get sabdfl to employ barry | 10:04 |
| bddebian | ajmitch: Howso? | 10:04 |
| ajmitch | bddebian: step up & do it | 10:04 |
| ajmitch | same goes for anyone | 10:04 |
| LaserJock | what we might want to think about is using the Teams more for leadership | 10:04 |
| LaserJock | it's a bit overwhelming to try to lead MOTU as a whole | 10:04 |
| bddebian | ajmitch: 1) I don't believe I have the skillz. 2) I'm a little screwed for time ATM. Possibly after November | 10:04 |
| bddebian | crimsun: Haha, core-dev wouldn't even have me, you think Canonical would? :-) | 10:05 |
| LaserJock | I don't know, maybe jono would have some ideas | 10:05 |
| LaserJock | he's supposed to be the community guru ;-) | 10:05 |
| crimsun | I'm devoting essentially all my free time to ubuntu, but this pace simply is not sustainable | 10:06 |
| LaserJock | exactly | 10:06 |
| LaserJock | mine is neither | 10:06 |
| LaserJock | I'm pretty close to taking an extended Ubuntu holiday | 10:06 |
| bddebian | I was too until work picked up :-( | 10:06 |
| === dholbach hugs crimsun | ||
| bddebian | And I don't feel like I even make a freakin' dent | 10:07 |
| LaserJock | we simply can't put all of MOTU on 5-10 people | 10:07 |
| robitaille | then you need to attract new fresh blood :) | 10:07 |
| LaserJock | robitaille: thanks for the insight ;-) | 10:08 |
| bddebian | I had two contact me for "sponsorship" but seem to have lost them.. :-( | 10:08 |
| crimsun | fresh blood is only part of the issue. We need people can /pour time/ into motu. | 10:08 |
| amachu | hi | 10:08 |
| bddebian | Sometimes it's hard to give direction when feeling chaotic yourself | 10:08 |
| crimsun | who can , even | 10:08 |
| ajmitch | I swore that I wasn't going to be doing ubuntu until 2AM last night | 10:08 |
| LaserJock | or at least a lot that can give a little ;-) | 10:08 |
| ajmitch | but I ended up doing it anyway | 10:08 |
| robitaille | I'm pointing a finger at myself here....but lack of time keep getting into the way of expanding my ubuntu partipation in things like MOTU | 10:08 |
| LaserJock | I think the big thing is | 10:09 |
| === ajmitch is *meant* to be working only part-time & devoting the rest of the time to ubuntu | ||
| ajmitch | but work needs me for more | 10:09 |
| LaserJock | right now it seems to be a truly active and good MOTU takes virtually a full time commitment | 10:09 |
| bddebian | Aye | 10:10 |
| LaserJock | that's not a sustainable volunteer model, IMO | 10:10 |
| ajmitch | to really get into it, it does | 10:10 |
| ajmitch | mostly because there's little way that someone can just spend an hour or two a week | 10:10 |
| crimsun | (to point we anticipated this back in hoary and even mused about paying people to do maintenance) | 10:10 |
| === bddebian raises his hand! ;-P | ||
| LaserJock | so I think we might have to put our thinking caps on | 10:11 |
| LaserJock | and look at ways we can lower the required time commitments while still keeping good MOTUs | 10:11 |
| crimsun | lowered time commitments isn't going to happen imo | 10:11 |
| bddebian | Aye, I was just going to say that | 10:12 |
| LaserJock | why not? | 10:12 |
| LaserJock | right now we just burn people up and the go away | 10:12 |
| bddebian | Well the NEW crap to maintaining existing crap grows exponentially to my point of view | 10:12 |
| LaserJock | one thing I've found, is that if you go away for even a couple weeks | 10:12 |
| LaserJock | it takes quite a bit to get back in the game | 10:13 |
| bddebian | The more stuff we review means the more stuff to maintain the next "go-round" | 10:13 |
| LaserJock | yes | 10:13 |
| bddebian | LaserJock: Agreed, that's where I think we need leadership / direction to set "priority" | 10:13 |
| LaserJock | I really wish we could focus less on NEW packages | 10:13 |
| lophyte | why not split the MOTU up into teams? | 10:13 |
| lophyte | like subteams.. have one that only works on new packages | 10:13 |
| bddebian | Based on what? There is some of that now | 10:13 |
| LaserJock | it is, sorta | 10:14 |
| lophyte | ah | 10:14 |
| LaserJock | I don't think the teams are used effectively though | 10:14 |
| crimsun | the problem is that you need a team of experienced MOTU to handle new candidate packages | 10:14 |

| crimsun | the opportunity cost of shifting existing MOTU to that solely is quite high | 10:15 |
| === ubuntu-es [n=ubuntu@201.230.39.149] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| slomo | LaserJock: completely agreed | 10:16 |
| lophyte | well, I'm wanting to get involved.. and I contributed a package.. but my problem is the fact that I'm not exactly sure how to fix broken packages | 10:16 |
| LaserJock | people certainly get a lot of satisfaction of seeing their package getting uploaded | 10:16 |
| bddebian | Why have we lost so damn many? :-( | 10:16 |
| slomo | LaserJock: but people come here with the will to package something | 10:16 |
| LaserJock | I think we need to push maintainership more | 10:16 |
| bddebian | LaserJock: I don't disagree but I'm not sure that's possible given the ratio of packages to MOTUs | 10:17 |
| slomo | LaserJock: maintainership as in build teams that care for a specific set of packages? like the telepathy example? | 10:17 |
| LaserJock | perhaps we could even have a basic REVU freeze for one cycle | 10:17 |
| lophyte | LaserJock: you mean like a dedicated person to a certain number of packages? | 10:17 |
| crimsun | geser: are you planning to apply for membership + MOTU anytime soon? | 10:17 |
| LaserJock | no uneccesary NEW packages | 10:17 |
| LaserJock | just focus on the packages we have | 10:17 |
| BazziR | LaserJock: that produces bad reputation imo | 10:18 |
| LaserJock | why? | 10:18 |
| geser | crimsun: yes | 10:18 |
| crimsun | geser: excellent | 10:18 |
| LaserJock | we are doing Debian+ | 10:18 |
| BazziR | "ubuntu does not want new packages" | 10:18 |
| LaserJock | Debian doesn't have a bad rep for it's number of packages | 10:18 |
| slomo | but in debian someone specifically cares for one package | 10:19 |
| lophyte | well, if you guys would like a newbies PoV... I've read the packaging docs and I have a general idea of how packaging works, but I'm still not exactly sure how to fix packages.. I've downloaded a couple and looked at them and really had no idea where to go from there.. perhaps others are having the same problem and thus there isn't a great number of volunteers | 10:19 |
| crimsun | honestly, we need to reimplement a release-exception "fast track" as we did during hoary where membership + MOTU were gained in one step. People like Fujitsu_ (if he weren't already a MOTU) and geser would be my candidates. | 10:19 |
| LaserJock | I think it's a little insane to think we can put in packages Debian doesn't, *and* manage our existing divergence | 10:19 |
| BazziR | lophyte: yes I've got the same problem... | 10:19 |
| geser | crimsun: have I already the requirements for membership fulfilled or do I need to do more? | 10:19 |
| crimsun | geser: imo you certainly have | 10:20 |
| slomo | imho we should get a bunch of teams for specific sets of packages ready to care at least for the important parts of universe... and then we can care about getting NEW packages in and forming teams around them... | 10:20 |
| slomo | geser: with your number of syncs, merges, whatever you definitely have | 10:20 |
| bddebian | But that still comes back to my question. Who says what Universe packages are "important"? | 10:21 |
| ajmitch | ok, back at keyboard | 10:21 |
| lophyte | I've got a suggestion... | 10:21 |
| ajmitch | bddebian: I pick & choose | 10:21 |
| LaserJock | bddebian: I do darn it! ;-) | 10:21 |
| bddebian | Sweet | 10:21 |
| ajmitch | like the science team does | 10:21 |
| slomo | bddebian: packages that people care about are important | 10:21 |
| bddebian | slomo: And you know which ones those are? | 10:21 |
| lophyte | the current MOTU "mentorship".. how exactly does it work? is it just a matter of a newbie having contact with a certain MOTU? | 10:21 |
| ajmitch | crimsun: I still see quality problems ahead | 10:21 |
| BazziR | wouldn't it be possible to track the popularity? and if you see "hey 50,000 people want X" you mark it as vital? | 10:21 |
| LaserJock | it's not as easy as one might think | 10:22 |
| slomo | bddebian: i guess you have a number of packages that you like... or a specific area of packages. these are the important packages (for you) | 10:22 |
| bddebian | BazziR: It's tough unless you have something like popcon but that requires user effort | 10:22 |
| ajmitch | BazziR: popcon is opt-in | 10:22 |
| crimsun | ajmitch: intractable, yes | 10:22 |
| bddebian | slomo: Right but that is just or "you" or "me" not the user community who is supposed to be who we are supporting isn't it? | 10:23 |
| LaserJock | bddebian: got a better way? | 10:23 |
| LaserJock | forums! ;-) | 10:23 |
| bddebian | heh | 10:23 |
| bddebian | LaserJock: No, unfortunately I don't | 10:23 |
| LaserJock | ok, some here are some ideas: | 10:24 |
| LaserJock | 1) get good people into MOTU faster | 10:24 |
| LaserJock | 2) utilize teams more | 10:24 |
| LaserJock | 3) provide better decision making information (unmet deps, etc.) | 10:24 |
| bddebian | Sounds great, make it so #1 ;-P | 10:25 |
| LaserJock | 4) let the uberMOTUs focus on UVFe and things like that | 10:25 |
| LaserJock | and reviewing NEW | 10:25 |
| bddebian | Who are the uberMOTUs? | 10:25 |
| LaserJock | we'll have to figure that out | 10:25 |
| slomo | reviewing NEW is critical | 10:26 |
| crimsun | the ones handling UVF atm | 10:26 |
| slomo | especially considering license and copyright stuff... | 10:26 |
| bddebian | slomo: Why? More stuff to maintain? | 10:26 |
| LaserJock | 5) less focus on REVU and NEW packages and more on maintaining what we have | 10:26 |
| bddebian | LaserJock: Sounds like we have dissenting opinions on that point :-) | 10:27 |
| slomo | oh i thought with reviewing NEW you meant reviewing the NEW queue and deciding which stuff can go into the archive etc ;) | 10:27 |
| LaserJock | on 5) | 10:27 |
| crimsun | bddebian: packaging and licensing intricacies. | 10:27 |
| LaserJock | slomo: sorry, I was thinking more of REVU | 10:27 |
| bddebian | Aye, that is what I thought you meant | 10:27 |
| LaserJock | my point being | 10:27 |
| LaserJock | that if we have good teams | 10:28 |
| lophyte | LaserJock: I've got a suggestion for #1 | 10:28 |
| bddebian | crimsun: Yeah and that's tough even for me. I don't, no do I want to, know/care much about licensing stuff unfortunately :-( | 10:28 |
| LaserJock | then any NEW packages that come out of those teams will be easier to handle | 10:28 |

| LaserJock | and I'd be more so if the NEW packages came from the team | 10:29 |
| === bddebian makes no comment | ||
| LaserJock | bddebian: please do | 10:29 |
| LaserJock | my problem with REVU is there are a lot of packages and it's rather disorganized | 10:30 |
| LaserJock | I think reviewers are often spending more time on a package then the packagers | 10:30 |
| slomo | LaserJock: you should become some kind of MOTU manager... your ideas and thoughts are good :) | 10:31 |
| LaserJock | slomo: I would be willing to be a part of a MOTU manager team | 10:31 |
| ajmitch | LaserJock: do it | 10:31 |
| LaserJock | but I think it's going to kill use if we only look to 1 person to do these things | 10:32 |
| ajmitch | we don't want rule-by-committee | 10:32 |
| LaserJock | part of a community volunteer model, IMO, would be having enough redundancy that if a person goes on vacation | 10:32 |
| LaserJock | or has to work on some RL stuff for a few weeks | 10:32 |
| LaserJock | everything doesn't fall apart | 10:32 |

| lophyte | LaserJock: I think it would be beneficial, if this isn't happening already, for MOTU "mentoring" to go a step further than what I've seen, and actually have a MOTU and a newbie sit down together for an hour on IRC or something, and work on the same package | 10:36 |
| LaserJock | yes, that can be helpful | 10:37 |
| LaserJock | however | 10:37 |
| LaserJock | that can lead to a fair amount of time | 10:37 |
| === superm1 [n=superm1@68-115-81-248.dhcp.roch.mn.charter.com] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||

| lophyte | true.. but its time invested in bringing more people in | 10:37 |

| lophyte | and then those people can train the next wave of hopefuls | 10:38 |
| LaserJock | but will we really be gaining that much? | 10:38 |
| LaserJock | if I sit down with someone for 1 hr | 10:38 |
| LaserJock | and perhaps they get a package done in that time | 10:38 |

| LaserJock | do you think it'd be enough | 10:39 |
| LaserJock | cbx33 is an exception of course ;-) | 10:39 |
| crimsun | mentoring is on-going | 10:39 |
| cbx33 | *bah* - i agree with you | 10:39 |
| lophyte | not for them to be full-fledged MOTUs, no, but it'd be enough to start them in the right direction, rather than being kinda lost | 10:39 |
| cbx33 | lophyte, hmmm | 10:39 |
| === nixternal would like to get more involved in here, just as long as someone is willing to hold my hand a little bit | ||
| LaserJock | lophyte: ok, but we are all here | 10:40 |
| nixternal | AND NO I WILL NOT KISS ON THE FIRST DATE! | 10:40 |
| cbx33 | whilst i agree with you in some respects | 10:40 |
| nixternal | ;D | 10:40 |
| ajmitch | it only took about about 5-6 years to learn how to package | 10:40 |
| cbx33 | and this is just my opinion here | 10:40 |
| crimsun | nixternal: I see you've aready hooked up with imbrandon | 10:40 |
| ajmitch | nixternal: tkae your medicine.. | 10:40 |
| nixternal | whoa whoa | 10:40 |
| LaserJock | haha | 10:40 |
| Plug | nixternal: you're going to explode one day, I'm sure of it ;) | 10:40 |
| nixternal | imbrandon has hooked up with everyone, that cheater ;) | 10:40 |
| cbx33 | but kinda knowing how and where to get the help......is more important than being shown how to pacakge | 10:40 |
| superm1 | haha | 10:40 |
| nixternal | ajmitch: im waiting for you to ship me a new batch of that medicine ;) | 10:41 |
| crimsun | lophyte: mentoring is on-going | 10:41 |
| LaserJock | ok, so here is something we need to also consider | 10:41 |
| lophyte | I agree | 10:41 |
| LaserJock | mentoring and MOTU creation seems to be taking a rather large part of our time | 10:42 |
| nixternal | Plug: i think i already have exploded...now there are bits and pieces of me trying to pick up more stuff ;) | 10:42 |
| LaserJock | for some MOTUs is virtually all they do | 10:42 |
| LaserJock | for other not | 10:42 |
| LaserJock | but the question is, are we being efficient in our efforts | 10:42 |
| cbx33 | LaserJock, whilst i'd love for someone to sit and have someone teach me | 10:42 |
| Plug | Something I'm not quite sure of - in Debian, its common to become a developer just to package your own stuff | 10:42 |
| Plug | but if you're a MOTU, it seems you're expected just to be one of the big group working on syncs, etc | 10:43 |
| cbx33 | i think leanring on my own has been a great expereince | 10:43 |
| Plug | is that because no new development is supposed to happen in Ubuntu - it should be in Debian? | 10:43 |
| ajmitch | morning Plug | 10:43 |
| cbx33 | brb | 10:43 |
| ajmitch | Plug: we try & encourage people to get stuff into debian | 10:43 |
| ajmitch | which a whole other world of pain | 10:44 |
| LaserJock | Plug: much of that comes from our team maintenance strategy | 10:44 |
| crimsun | cbx33: one is never confined to the mentoring process. In fact, you would be ideal for mentoring others. | 10:44 |
| cbx33 | crimsun, true....but if I started I'd be worried that I'd rely on the mentoring | 10:44 |
| ajmitch | I'd love for someone to have taught me :) | 10:44 |
| cbx33 | because I "know it's right" | 10:44 |
| dholbach | night fellas | 10:44 |
| crimsun | night daniel | 10:44 |
| LaserJock | cya dholbach | 10:45 |
| cbx33 | rather than trying and learning from my mistakes ;) | 10:45 |
| cbx33 | and I made a fair few | 10:45 |
| LaserJock | some people learn differently too | 10:45 |
| LaserJock | some people only learn by doing it themselves | 10:45 |
| === dholbach hugs you all | ||
| LaserJock | other's learn by reading a book | 10:45 |
| dholbach | you guys rock! | 10:45 |
| crimsun | right, that's the point I'm making. Of course mentoring isn't the only way. | 10:45 |
| LaserJock | mentoring in a way though can fulfill all that | 10:45 |
| nixternal | cbx33: i hear you..im sick of NOT learning from my mistakes, and im sick of making mistakes others did when Linux was just a dream ;) | 10:45 |
| LaserJock | if the mentor identifies the learning still of the mentee and then directs them to the right place | 10:46 |
| Plug | LaserJock: LaserJock see, I'd be interested in joining MOTU for a small number of packages I maintained, but I'm not sure either how quickly I'd be up to speed, or if I have the time, for the general super syncing/revuing/etc that the wonderful MOTUs here do | 10:46 |
| LaserJock | Plug: that's fine | 10:46 |
| LaserJock | we have teams | 10:46 |
| LaserJock | that's nothing new | 10:46 |
| LaserJock | ok, so quickly, can we identify a few key problems we are having in MOTU land | 10:47 |
| LaserJock | I see maybe: | 10:48 |
| LaserJock | 1) reviewing | 10:48 |
| LaserJock | 2) lack of prioritized general task lists | 10:49 |
| LaserJock | 3) people fall throw the cracks too easily | 10:49 |
| LaserJock | s/throw/through/ | 10:49 |
| ajmitch | (too much crack) | 10:49 |
| LaserJock | heh | 10:49 |
| Plug | (plumber's crack) | 10:49 |
| LaserJock | anybody want to add more? | 10:50 |
| ajmitch | bad image | 10:50 |
| ajmitch | people expect MOTUs to 'do it all' | 10:50 |
| lophyte | I think #2 is a big one, and that might be one of the reasons that hopefuls are discouraged | 10:50 |
| ajmitch | so that new MOTUs are expected to jump on REVU & start reviewing, for example | 10:50 |
| crimsun | #2 subsumes #1 and #3 | 10:51 |
| LaserJock | ajmitch: so maybe 4) lack of MOTU definition and skill sets | 10:51 |
| nixternal | #5 nixternal is always in the way | 10:51 |
| lophyte | I think the task lists would be a big help... | 10:51 |
| lophyte | I wanna help, but I'm not exactly sure where or how to help | 10:52 |
| nixternal | look at lophyte go, he gets a sip of the membership drug on now he is on a rampage ;) | 10:52 |
| ajmitch | blame me | 10:52 |
| lophyte | I was told to play around with Edgy packages w/unmet deps and try to fix them, but I'm not exactly sure how.. that's the problem for me | 10:52 |
| ajmitch | I was meant to setup the merge list but didn't get to it | 10:52 |
| Plug | ajmitch: you do far too much already. lets blame someone else for a change! :) | 10:52 |
| ajmitch | Plug: no, I barely do anything | 10:53 |
| lophyte | nixternal: nah, I've been a bit involved with MOTU.. just been busy lately :P | 10:53 |
| LaserJock | ajmitch I think that's a symptom, but not the problem ;-) | 10:53 |
| Plug | you had me fooled | 10:53 |
| superm1 | so when you guys are saying task lists - why not integrate more into REVU, its a good central location? Like a page listing all bugs with MOTU on the list to CC or assign to? | 10:53 |
| LaserJock | superm1: because we are trying to move to LP | 10:54 |
| superm1 | oic | 10:54 |
| LaserJock | we actually did have a nice task list python script on revu for merge/sync for dapper | 10:54 |
| bddebian | Yeah | 10:54 |
| ajmitch | LaserJock: what I was talking about ~2 min ago | 10:54 |
| LaserJock | I know | 10:55 |
| bddebian | ajmitch: Who needs to teach you, when you already know everything? :) | 10:55 |
| ajmitch | bddebian: I said taught, and I don't know everything | 10:55 |
| LaserJock | ok, how's this for a plan: | 10:56 |
| LaserJock | I'll try to take on an interim role of MOTU manager, work up (with help ;-) ) some stuff on identifying problems and solutions, maybe talk with jono a bit | 10:57 |
| LaserJock | and by UDS Mountain View have an actionable plan | 10:57 |
| ajmitch | ah, LaserJock the MOTU celebrity | 10:58 |
| LaserJock | I sooo don't want that | 10:58 |
| crimsun | we can set priorities based on the release cycle. At the beginning of the release cycle, we need to focus on: 1), 2), 3) in descending priority. After autosync stops, we shift to this order: 2), 3), 1). After main UVF, we shift to ... After upstream UVF, we shift to... and so on. | 10:58 |
| LaserJock | yep | 10:58 |
| ajmitch | crimsun: yes, I was thinking of writing up a general release schedule earlier | 10:58 |
| ajmitch | 'earlier' only being about 2 hours ago :) | 10:58 |
| LaserJock | I think it's most confusing for people when they come in mid release | 10:59 |
| lophyte | that's me | 10:59 |
| lophyte | :P | 10:59 |
| LaserJock | once you've seen it done once, you get a feel for it, IMO | 10:59 |
| === ajmitch is just old, bitter & cynical about the world | ||
| LaserJock | I doubt the old | 10:59 |
| LaserJock | but I'm sure you're right about the rest ;-) | 10:59 |
| ajmitch | thanks | 10:59 |
| LaserJock | haha | 11:00 |
| lophyte | is there anywhere in particular that I could help out with? | 11:00 |
| LaserJock | fix bugs | 11:00 |
| LaserJock | ;-) | 11:00 |
| LaserJock | that's the usual line | 11:01 |
| superm1 | oh thats what they always say around here.... | 11:01 |
| LaserJock | it'd be nice to turn that into something more helpful | 11:01 |
| ajmitch | with ~16K bugs open, it's a bit hard to point at some & say go for it | 11:02 |
| lophyte | so just pick one and go for it? | 11:02 |
| ajmitch | I just end up selecting things I know about & want working | 11:02 |
| LaserJock | teams | 11:02 |
| geser | lophyte: I've started with looking at packages with unmet deps (apt-cache unmet -i) | 11:02 |

| geser | lophyte: I will help you | 11:05 |
