[01:27] <mpt> SteveA, still around?
[02:01] <_thumper_> mpt: ping
[02:42] <mpt> _thumper_, pong
[02:43] <_thumper_> mpt: didn't you say something at some stage about coming down south in december?
[02:45] <mpt> _thumper_, yes, I'll be in Dunedin from this Friday to next Wednesday
[02:45] <ajmitch> coming to enjoy summer in the south
[02:45] <_thumper_> mpt: is it leave or working?  I'd like to meet up some time
[02:46] <_thumper_> icebergs and all :)
[02:51] <mpt> _thumper_, leave
[02:51] <mpt> So yes, lunch sometime would be great
[02:51] <mpt> And what's this about icebergs?
[02:52] <_thumper_> there are icebergs floating off the Dunedin coast
[02:52] <_thumper_> how could you not have heard that?
[02:53] <_thumper_> mpt: it was a reference to ajmitch and summer, I should really learn to prefix ids :)
[02:56] <mpt> ajmitch? summer? icebergs?
[03:00] <_thumper_> mpt: [14:45]  <ajmitch> coming to enjoy summer in the south
[03:00] <mpt> Icebergs off Dunedin? Coooool
[03:01] <mpt> Are they the ones people are getting married on?
[03:01] <_thumper_> mpt: yeah, they are running sightseeing flights daily, and yes to attempted marriage
[03:01] <mpt> "attempted marriage", sounds like "attempted burglary"
[03:02] <_thumper_> supposidly there are another 6 on their way up from antartica
[03:02] <_thumper_> biggest measuring almost 1km
[03:02] <mpt> Antarctica's melting and flooding us all, huh
[03:05] <jamesh> _thumper_: I finished off your spec-branches branch and merged it while you were moving.
[03:05] <jamesh> it's up on staging now
[03:05] <_thumper_> jamesh: thanks, ddaa mentioned that to me
[03:06] <_thumper_> jamesh: how do I see staging?
[03:06] <jamesh> _thumper_: https://staging.launchpad.net/
[03:06] <_thumper_> jamesh: ta
[03:07] <jamesh> _thumper_: if you do "bzr diff -r 4278..4279" for rocketfuel, you'll see the completed changes.
[03:08] <_thumper_> thanks

[04:22] <jamesh> wasabi: got an OOPS number?

[04:24] <wasabi> And it started working. ;)
[07:53] <l0fty> hello, I have a launchpad feature request and I'm not sure how to submit it.
[07:54] <l0fty> All it is, is it would be helpful if you could search by package name in the bug tracker.
[07:55] <poolie> that should already be possible...
[07:56] <poolie> to file a bug
[07:56] <jamesh> l0fty: if you go to the package's page and click "Bugs", you'll get a bug listing narrowed to that distro/package
[07:56] <_thumper_> hey poolie, 
[07:57] <poolie> hi thumper
[07:57] <l0fty> jamesh: OK, thanks
[07:57] <_thumper_> poolie, are you at osdc for all four days too?
[07:57] <poolie> i just realized i should plan to talk to you earlier in the day now
[07:57] <jamesh> l0fty: e.g. https://bugs.launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/python2.5/+bugs
[07:57] <_thumper_> :)
[07:57] <_thumper_> poolie: no worries, spent the day catching up on work emails and reading meeting notes
[07:57] <jamesh> l0fty: you can enter a search term there and it will only search for bugs on that package.
[07:58] <poolie> _thumper_: only wed-fri, but travelling tomorrow
[07:58] <_thumper_> poolie: ok, should be fun
[07:59] <poolie> l0fty: for future reference you can file bugs at https://bugs.launchpad.net/products/launchpad/+bugs
[07:59] <poolie> but asking here may be best
[08:00] <jamesh> l0fty: iirc there is a spec for adding boogle-style searching to Launchpad
[08:00] <jamesh> which might allow you to do searches like "package:tzdata foo"
[08:00] <jamesh> but that hasn't been implemented yet
[08:01] <l0fty> I just tried to find the page for 'listen' and it's either not a full ubuntu package (unlikely as I'm running it) or else the search engine isn't picking it up.
[08:02] <l0fty> I did a search for 'packages containing listen'
[08:03] <l0fty> Just saying there should be a simple, obvious way to go straight to the page for a given package, and there isn't one AFAICS
[08:05] <jamesh> l0fty: weird.  I wonder why it didn't find that package.
[08:05] <jamesh> https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/listen <- it is definitely in LP
[08:05] <l0fty> maybe the package doesn't have 'listen' in the description?
[08:06] <jamesh> maybe
[08:06] <jamesh> but I'd expect the search to match package names ...
[08:08] <l0fty> don't know. Thanks for your help - I found the page anyway.
[08:16] <BjornT_> jamesh, l0fty: the script that updates the cache that the search uses is broken, so that's probably why the package wasn't found.
[09:08] <ddaa> good morning
[09:09] <_thumper_> morning ddaa
[09:13] <ddaa> Hello _thumper_
[09:13] <ddaa> welcome aboard

[11:00] <Ubugtu> New bug: #74361 in rosetta "Use appropriate marking for KDE plural forms" [Undecided,Confirmed]  http://launchpad.net/bugs/74361
[11:01] <lifeless> meeting time
[11:01] <lifeless> who is here ?
[11:01] <jamesh> I am
[11:01] <BjornT_> me
[11:02] <lifeless>  * Roll call
[11:03] <lifeless>  * Queue status.
[11:03] <lifeless>  * reviewers to discuss ideas and principles for keeping branch review quick (was on LP meeting agenda)
[11:03] <lifeless>  * lifeless on leave
[11:04] <lifeless> https://devpad.canonical.com/~jamesh/pending-reviews/ is the queue
[11:04] <lifeless> as usual :)
[11:05] <lifeless> its better than it was, but the oldest branches aren't moving
[11:05] <lifeless> BjornT_: david/cscvs/svn-peg-revision ?
[11:05] <lifeless> jamesh: flacoste/launchpad/tt-localized-requests-notifications?
[11:05] <jamesh> I think the three pyrex ones are the same as what spiv just reviewed
[11:05] <jamesh> lifeless: sent a review off a little while ago
[11:06] <lifeless> yah, I'm ignoring those
[11:06] <lifeless> and the one of kikos, that hes explained about on list
[11:06] <jamesh> looks like it is coming under control
[11:06] <BjornT_> lifeless: right, i should sort that one out. it probably shouldn't be in needs-review. i'll talk to ddaa about it after the meeting.
[11:07] <lifeless> BjornT_: thanks
[11:07] <lifeless> Keeping Branch review quick.
[11:09] <jamesh> related to that, BjornT mentioned getting pending-reviews to do incremental diffs
[11:10] <lifeless> yes
[11:10] <lifeless> this is a feature I have requested from launchpads review system
[11:11] <jamesh> does the algorithm I posted on that bug sound correct to you?
[11:11] <lifeless> I think doing it by hand is reasonable for now 
[11:11] <lifeless> BjornT: Have you encountered interdiff ?
[11:11] <lifeless> jamesh: Haven't seen it. Bug # ?
[11:11] <jamesh> https://bugs.launchpad.net/products/launchpad-development-infrastructure/+bug/74011
[11:11] <Ubugtu> Malone bug 74011 in launchpad-development-infrastructure "Allow saying against which branch a diff should be produced from" [Undecided,Unconfirmed]  
[11:11] <lifeless> jamesh: ahr, different things
[11:11] <BjornT> lifeless: what's interdiff?
[11:11] <lifeless> BjornT: its a tool for seeing the diff between two diffs
[11:12] <lifeless> BjornT: so you can see what has changed from one 'pending merge' diff to another
[11:12] <lifeless> this lets you see that when Fred says "Ive added docstrings", you can see what they are 
[11:12] <jamesh> lifeless: the algorithm I mentioned isn't just picking a different rocketfuel branch
[11:13] <lifeless> jamesh: lets call diffing against specific branches, diffing against non-trunk, or something ?
[11:13] <BjornT> lifeless: ah. that could be useful. usually i get the branch and produce the diff using bzr instead.
[11:13] <jamesh> lifeless: I think we still want to get a diff in terms of the trunk, but between the results of two merges to the trunk
[11:14] <lifeless> jamesh: yes, your algorithm looks correct.
[11:14] <lifeless> jamesh: might be optimisable
[11:14] <jamesh> lifeless: I think you need to involve the trunk for the way people develop -- otherwise you pick up unrelated changes related to merges from rocketfuel
[11:15] <jamesh> which the reviewer doesn't care about
[11:15] <lifeless> jamesh: sure, but you could merge trunk -> B, commit, merge A-> that dir, diff, uncommit
[11:15] <lifeless> or variations
[11:16] <lifeless> so, this is something I've been meaning to discuss.
[11:16] <lifeless> I suggest that when you do a review, you save the diff that you reviewed, locally.
[11:16] <lifeless> then when you do a follow up review, you save the new diff, and use interdiff between them
[11:16] <lifeless> tell me how that works, whether its easy to work with or not -> this will be input into _thumper_s work on reviews-in-launchpad
[11:17] <jamesh> would it be helpful if the pending-reviews script included any more metadata at the top of the diff?
[11:17] <jamesh> (e.g. branch names plus revision numbers?)
[11:17] <lifeless> yeah
[11:17] <BjornT> yeah, that would help.
[11:17] <lifeless> branch: foo\nrevno: X\n
[11:18] <jamesh> you'll notice that the conflicts list is at the top of the diff these days
[11:18] <jamesh> rather than a separate file
[11:18] <lifeless> so what can we do to make it easier to work on smaller bits of code
[11:18] <lifeless> is it a knack thing, or is it tech ?
[11:19] <lifeless> I think its largely a knack, and some discipline
[11:20] <Ubugtu> New bug: #74364 in malone "Shouldn't have URLs containing "malone"" [Undecided,Unconfirmed]  http://launchpad.net/bugs/74364
[11:20] <lifeless> ...
[11:20] <BjornT> yeah, it's mostly that people need to learn to break down their work into smaller pieces
[11:21] <jamesh> if we improve service for small patches, hopefully that'll encourage people to give us smaller patches ...
[11:22] <BjornT> before someone starts to work on a large feature, there should be some discussion about how to divide the implementation into smaller steps
[11:22] <lifeless> we have the idea of pre-implementation calls
[11:22] <lifeless> is that actually happening?
[11:23] <BjornT> i don't think there have been many calls lately
[11:23] <lifeless> I have a suggestion
[11:23] <lifeless> we have a work in progress status
[11:23] <lifeless> can we offer each branch a preimp call ?
[11:23] <lifeless> in a proactive, non-compulsory manner
[11:24] <lifeless> as in 
[11:24] <lifeless> jamesh: I note you've started on jamesh/launchpad/url-utils
[11:24] <lifeless> have you had a chance to talk the implementation over with someone ?
[11:24] <jamesh> lifeless: it is based on conversations with SteveA -- I plan to put it up for review soon
[11:25] <jamesh> I am not sure how best to break it up into smaller chunks
[11:25] <lifeless> excellent, sounds like I dont have anything to offer here, I look forward to reviewing it!
[11:25] <lifeless> sorry, was roleplaying :)
[11:25] <lifeless> my point is for us to go out to the developers
[11:26] <lifeless> rather than waiting. If its primarily a skill thing - learning how to tell when something is getting bulky and needs to be staged
[11:26] <lifeless> then the folk with that skill are the best ones to judge when its needed
[11:26] <jamesh> yeah.  I'd like to get it through review so that the code can be used in other interesting areas
[11:27] <jamesh> (I wouldn't want to do that in the existing branch)
[11:27] <lifeless> what do you think of this idea ?
[11:27] <BjornT> lifeless: what exactly are you proposing?
[11:28] <lifeless> BjornT: Ah the details.
[11:28] <jamesh> (I wonder how many of the WIP branches have been forgotten)
[11:28] <lifeless> uhm, I guess...
[11:28] <lifeless> any wip branch over 1000 should get a phone-call/irc discussion offer from a reviewer
[11:29] <lifeless> and then be marked as having had that offer made
[11:29] <jamesh> that sounds like a good idea
[11:29] <BjornT> yeah, that'd be good.
[11:30] <lifeless> ok. Do we need someone to coordinate? Or can we just start reporting on it weekly ?
[11:30] <BjornT> but we should also try to encourage people to have that discussion before starting to implement the feature.
[11:30] <lifeless> BjornT: I agree, but that does not seem to be happening much.
[11:30] <lifeless> and I think the reason it does not is that things seem simpler than they are when you start.
[11:32] <BjornT> maybe we should try to improve our spec process, and require an implementation part that outlines how it should be done. then a reviewer could judge whether it sounds reasonable, or if it's likely to become a big patch.
[11:32] <lifeless> I thought we had that :)
[11:33] <BjornT> well, we should have it, but if you look at most of our specs, then they're incomplete...
[11:33] <jamesh> 1000 lines seems like a rough estimate of when a branch becomes complex
[11:33] <jamesh> do we want to still have such a discussion with the developer if they did a pre-implementation call before starting?
[11:33] <lifeless> Lets start with something simple. I'll whip up a pending-reviews patch to show a * on branches which have had an offer or a call
[11:34] <lifeless> and then we can all start having an eyeball once a day, when we look for our reviews to do, for ones that dont have a *, and are > 1000 lines
[11:34] <lifeless> jamesh: agreed.
[11:34] <lifeless> jamesh: I dont think so [more discussion] , but being involved is always good, so could go either way
[11:35] <BjornT> i think we want to have such calls even if there were a pre-implementation call. if the patch gets too large, it could be a sign that the pre-implemtation call didn't cover everything.
[11:36] <lifeless> mmm
[11:36] <lifeless> I'm much more comfortable with a branch that has had reasonable discussions with a reviewer going > 1000 lines, than one that has not
[11:37] <lifeless> lets see how it goes, and tune it ?
[11:37] <lifeless> I have one more agenda item, but I think we should leave this item on the agenda, as a recurring one, for a bit
[11:37] <lifeless> this has been good discussion so far, and we have more to have I think.
[11:38] <lifeless> ok ?
[11:38] <jamesh> okay
[11:38] <BjornT> yeah, that's true. still, it could be that at first, things looked easy, but then when starting to implement it, it turned out that some other changes were needed as well.
[11:38] <danilos> my mails are not ending up on launchpad list, and I am not getting any notice either (like it's stuck in moderation, or that delivery has failed, or whatever); anyone knows what's going on?
[11:38] <jamesh> danilos: iirc, you should get an email notification if that happens
[11:38] <jamesh> danilos: you sure the messages aren't caught in your MTA's queue?
[11:39] <lifeless> ok, last agenda item
[11:39] <lifeless>  * lifeless on leave
[11:39] <lifeless> I'm on leave for the last 3 weeks of december
[11:39] <danilos> jamesh: no, they are not stuck; I'll investigate a bit more, thanks (and sorry for interrupting the meeting)
[11:39] <lifeless> I need a volunteer to do the pending-reviews daily allocation, and either chair, or find a chair weekly, this meeting, until jan 1st
[11:40] <BjornT> i'll be on leave the last two weeks of december, so i could do it only the first week.
[11:41] <jamesh> I'm on leave 22nd - 5th
[11:41] <lifeless> how about this, BjornT - if you can start, and you find a replacement before you go on leave :).
[11:41] <lifeless> it can be a hot potato
[11:41] <jamesh> I can do it after BjornT goes on leave
[11:41] <BjornT> lifeless: sure, sounds good :)
[11:41] <lifeless> and they have to find their replacement :)
[11:41] <lifeless> jamesh: cool.
[11:41] <lifeless> ok. any other business ?
[11:42] <BjornT> not from me
[11:43] <lifeless> thanks for coming, see you in jan 
[11:43] <lifeless> (meeting wise :)
[11:43] <lifeless> I'm still here this week.
[11:49] <jamesh> lifeless: I was thinking about your idea for bug 74011, I suppose the idea of merge one branch, commit, merge the other has the benefit of not giving a reverse diff for fixes made on the base branch
[11:49] <Ubugtu> Malone bug 74011 in launchpad-development-infrastructure "Allow saying against which branch a diff should be produced from" [Undecided,Unconfirmed]  http://launchpad.net/bugs/74011
[11:50] <jamesh> lifeless: I guess I'd need to auto-resolve any conflicts from merging the base branch though
[12:00] <stu1> Do we still need to support /bugs/distros/ubuntu URLs ? They have been deprecated in favour of /distros/ubuntu/+bugs for quite a while now.
[12:06] <danilos> stub: hi, can you check if my mails to launchpad@ are stuck in moderation queue (you are listed as one of admins)
[12:07] <stub> danilos: nope. just some spam

[04:44] <RichiH> kiko: under the same licence it is under, i presume?
[04:44] <RichiH> or do we have to dual something more open as well?
[04:45] <danilos> RichiH: we'll be asking all translation contributors to submit their translations under BSD (or BSD-like) license real-soon-now
[04:46] <danilos> RichiH: and we're assuming something like that already, even though we didn't make it explicit
[04:46] <kiko> RichiH, AFAIK the license of the translations doesn't really depend or impinge on the license of the original text
[04:46] <danilos> RichiH: as for original content, we don't have any requirements set
[04:47] <danilos> RichiH: and having all translators submit translations under BSD means you'll also be able to use them on your website, regardless of the license
[04:47] <RichiH> yah
[04:47] <RichiH> sounds good to me, i will get a nod from our side and then register a project
[04:48] <RichiH> i need to come back to you guys to start a new project, correct?
[04:49] <danilos> RichiH: no, you can do that all on your own, afaik
[04:50] <RichiH> ah, cool
[05:09] <jordi> danilos: ok, it seems lschiere never raised the licence as a concern
[05:09] <danilos> jordi: right, thanks for checking
[05:57] <_MMA_> Hello all. Im trying to register a spec on Launchpad and its telling me my username is a "invalid value" when I put it in the "Drafter" field. It would be the same one as Im logged in with right?
[05:59] <_MMA_> I got it. inputting my email worked. Thats kinda confusing.
[06:10] <SteveA> kiko-fud: ping when you've got back
[06:21] <kiko> hey BjornT_ 
[06:21] <BjornT_> hi kiko 
[06:24] <SteveA> kiko: ping
[06:24] <SteveA> kiko: help me sort out this call
[06:24] <kiko> SteveA, I'm doing 2 other things, so hold on for a bit
[06:24] <SteveA> well, it's getting near the end of the day in europe
[06:25] <SteveA> so, a bit is okay, if it is a short bit
[06:26] <kiko> BjornT_, just had a quick question: are you holding all the guided filebug reviews to land them all at once?
[06:26] <kiko> SteveA, yes, short.
[06:28] <BjornT_> kiko: yes, i plan to land them all at once. the last one should be approved today or tomorrow, though.
[06:28] <kiko> BjornT_, okay, I was just curious. thanks!
[06:28] <kiko> good job in breaking them up btw
[06:28] <BjornT_> thanks
[06:29] <SteveA> matthewrevell: see last 10 lines in the scrollback
[06:31] <matthewrevell> SteveA: Cool. I'm planning to be away from my desk from around 18:00 to get some food
[06:31] <SteveA> UTC?
[06:32] <matthewrevell> Sorry, yes
[06:32] <matthewrevell> I'm flexible though
[06:42] <kiko> matthewrevell, SteveA: let's do it.
[06:43] <matthewrevell> kiko: Skype?
[06:44] <kiko> I don't skype
[06:44] <kiko> but SteveA can call me 
[06:44] <matthewrevell> ok
[06:45] <gummibaerchen> matthewrevell: skype is bad & mad :)
[06:50] <kiko> RichiH, were those answers good enough for you?
[06:50] <kiko> matthewrevell, SteveA: so.. if not now, maybe we can rebook in 30m?
[06:51] <matthewrevell> kiko, SteveA: That's fine by me.
[06:51] <kiko> SteveA, I can talk to matthewrevell without you, too <0.5 wink>
[06:52] <matthewrevell> :)
[06:54] <kiko> matthewrevell, is 30 minutes enough for food and rest? I'll call you at 18:30?
[06:54] <SteveA> kiko: you can have the secret call later
[06:55] <matthewrevell> kiko: I'll probably eat after the call
[06:55] <kiko> yeah, well, I need to be afk until 18:30 now, you took too long
[06:55] <matthewrevell> cool, okay :)
[06:55] <RichiH> kiko: yes, they were, thanks :)
[06:55] <SteveA> that would have been a very short call!
[06:56] <kiko-afk> RichiH, most welcome. let me know how your work progresses -- I am unsure if there's any negotiation that needs to happen, or if it's just DO IT
[06:56] <RichiH> kiko: as soon as i have the raw files, i will extract the text, put it in whatever format you guys need and upload
[06:56] <kiko-afk> RichiH, we use po-format. the same as everybody else (well, almost). consult with danilos if you need technical help there, he's the ninja
[06:56] <RichiH> kiko-afk: kbabel uses po, nay?
[06:56] <RichiH> i am sure i can figure it out anyway
[06:57] <danilos> RichiH: yes, kbabel uses it, but I can also suggest you try xml2po from gnome-doc-utils if you've got any sane XML format as source :)
[06:58] <RichiH> danilos: it is shtml and i fear it is messy
[06:58] <RichiH> i have never seen the raw shtml of our sites
[06:58] <RichiH> i hear it's horrible, though
[06:58] <RichiH> or they are just referring to shtml in general ;)
[06:58] <kiko-afk> it starts with "sh" for a reason
[07:00] <RichiH> kiko-afk: heh
[07:00] <danilos> RichiH: right, well, if  you can do any kind of normalization using things like xmlformat, maybe it'll be easier; if not, well, too bad ;)
[07:00] <danilos> s/xmlformat/xmllint/ :)

[09:55] <mdke> that would be great

[10:01] <Phoenix7477> anyone free to awnser a question about karma?
[10:01] <kiko> always
[10:01] <kiko> what's up
[10:01] <mpt> Gooooooooooooooooooooooood morning Launchpadders!
[10:01] <kiko> guttes evening mpt
[10:01] <Phoenix7477> well, im just kind of curious. i'm trying to learn the whole launchpad system, and the bug system to get started. and i can't seem to find much documentation on what karma is exactly, and how its calculated
[10:01] <mpt> hello hello
[10:02] <mpt> kiko, did you or SteveA get to talk with Mark about "Ask a question"?
[10:02] <mpt> Phoenix7477, https://help.launchpad.net/KarmaCalculation
[10:02] <Phoenix7477> thank you :)
[10:03] <kiko> mpt, we didn't :-(
[10:04] <kiko> mpt, I like that text myself btw
[10:05] <mpt> because I don't want to postpone sending the next episode of Usman's to-do list
[10:05] <kiko> mpt, can you rehash so I can sign off? or is this in email?
[10:07] <mpt> The list of graphics to draw
[10:07] <mpt> Currently there's a "Request support" button, which will need redrawing
[10:07] <kiko> right
[10:08] <kiko> you want the alt text to be "Ask a question"
[10:08] <kiko> and a button to be rendered for that?
[10:08] <mpt> yes
[10:08] <kiko> approved

[10:11] <kiko> error isn't a very, btw
[10:11] <kiko> err
[10:11] <kiko> isn't a verb
[10:14] <matsubara> 3. (verb) What a program does when it stops as result of a programming error.
[10:15] <matsubara> From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (27 SEP 03) [foldoc] :
[10:16] <kiko> a program "errors"?
[10:16] <LarstiQ> yes
[10:16] <kiko> a program /may/ "error out"
[10:16] <kiko> but "errors"?
[10:16] <kiko> I've never heard that used anywhere
[10:17] <kiko> feel free to show me references by people called knuth, thompson or dijkstra
[10:20] <kiko> and send me a DVD if you can't :-)
[10:24] <mpt> "complain" would work :-)
[10:25] <mpt> oh, you already used that
[10:34] <SteveA> morning mpt
[10:35] <SteveA> mpt: how's your coordination with brilliant going?  maybe we should arrange a call with anthony sometime?
[10:37] <mpt> SteveA, scroll up half an hour :-) -- I'm just about to e-mail Usman + Anthony with the next to-do list
[10:39] <SteveA> I asked mark
[10:39] <SteveA> "ask a question" is okay
[10:40] <SteveA> mpt: we should try to talk with anthony on the phone tomorrow morning (europe time) to talk over the email
[10:40] <SteveA> the extra clarity by following up the email with voice is worth it in these cases I think
[10:41] <mpt> ok
[10:42] <mpt> BjornT__, around?
[10:43] <SteveA> so, when you write, propose a time after 9.30 UTC for a call with usman
[10:43] <SteveA> I'll be around then too
[10:43] <SteveA> um, for a call with anthony, I meant
[10:44] <SteveA> not usman

[11:36] <kiko> mpt, I moved it around, and I believe I fixed it -- what needed to be fixed again?
 the code you change does something like

[11:49] <_thumper_> how does someone enter a mailing list email for a team atm?
[11:49] <_thumper_> and how does that effect emails sent out, does it send to team email and members or does it override sending to members?
[11:50] <kiko> _thumper_, it overrides.
[11:50] <kiko> and _thumper_ you set it as your teams preferred email, in the team page.
[11:51] <_thumper_> kiko, do you have to be the team owner to see that option?
[11:51] <kiko> or a team admin, I think.
[11:52] <_thumper_> kiko, that makes sense, thanks
[11:59] <newz2000> Can I reasonably assume that there are not going to be two teams with the same name, and can I make the same assumption about displayname?
[12:01] <kiko> there will never be two teams with the same name
[12:01] <kiko> there can be two teams with the same displayname, but it would be odd
[12:01] <newz2000> kiko: thanks
[12:02] <kiko> that's a bit of an odd phishing attack there
[12:02] <SteveA> that's actually a difficult one
[12:03] <SteveA> we could detect that and show the real "id" name in brackets afterwards
[12:03] <SteveA> but that wouldn't accoiunt for confusingly similar display names
[12:03] <SteveA> and might actually make the phishability of it worse
[12:03] <kiko> yeah.
[12:04] <newz2000> Just trying to figure out this art.ubuntu.com authentication thing. So far, it's going real smooth.
[12:04] <_thumper_> there are two teams called "Bazaar Developers"
[12:04] <kiko> nice
[12:04] <SteveA> slashdot does this with names -- they put the numeric id in brackets after the name
[12:04] <kiko> _thumper_, that's a phishing attack right there
[12:05] <kiko> does one advertise 7 inch extensions?
[12:05] <SteveA> we need that "report abuse" button
