no0ticI saw it, then I asked :)03:43
no0ticI would like to know if there is a cloack for us, I don't think we can use the /ubuntu/member one, I was approved only in the Italian Team03:49

tonyyarussoI probably have neither the time nor adequate experience myself.10:09
tonyyarussoLjL: ah, right.  /me loads10:09
SeveasHobbsee, be an escalation point, write/proofread documents/policies and approve new ops10:09
gnomefreakSeveas: put everyone in it and see what happenes?10:09
Amaranthi'd like to volunteer pending reactivation10:09
SeveasAmaranth, noted10:10
HobbseeSeveas: okay, i'll nominate10:10
SeveasHobbsee, noted as well10:10
apokryphosgnomefreak: +110:10
=== gnomefreak too since i may be leaving a team or 3
tonyyarussoWe are leaving elkbuntu on the list even though she can't be here I hope?10:10
Seveasgnomefreak, bad idea -- that happened last time and I had some negative comments :)10:10
Seveastonyyarusso, definitely10:10
tonyyarussogood10:10
apokryphosSeveas: what like?10:10
Seveasthat surely means no voting today though10:11
SeveasI'll send out a call for votes later (tomorrow)10:11
Seveasapokryphos, people on the list who didn't want to be on there10:11
Seveasnot angry mails, but negative comments10:11
Hobbseeon the mailing list/10:11
apokryphosSeveas: put me on as well 8)10:12
Seveasok10:12

apokryphosand rob, since he mentioned that some time ago10:12
Seveasyou all know it would mean much work in the near future?10:12
Amaranthyep10:12
SeveasI'd assume so10:12
SeveasNext point: Amaranth10:12
SeveasLet me summarize this quickly:10:13
apokryphoswell, documents and approving new ops? Seems ok ;-)10:13
SeveasAmaranths cloak and op status were removed after he misbehaved a while ago in a non-ubuntu related channel. This all was solved and the cloak was restored. I'm just not 100% comfortable with just restoring his ops access and look for input (a +1/-1 will do, but arguments are better)10:14
Seveassomerville32, feedback please!10:14
Seveaserr10:14
SeveasSTUPID TAB10:14
SeveasI meant: so, feedback please10:14
somerville32lol10:14
Seveasand hit tab after so ;)10:14
=== somerville32 giggles.
Seveas(though somerville32's feedback is also appreciated)10:14
apokryphosAmaranth has been with us for some time and was a decent Op when around. I believe he's learned from what went wrong and Id' like to see him reinstated personally.10:15
gnomefreakwithout being fully up to date i say +110:15
Hobbsee+1 here.  no one's perfect10:15
Seveas(btw: in the future these kinds of things are irc council material instead of a full ops tribunal ;))10:15
jendaI think swearing in any channel in one situation does not imply Amaranths ability to act as an op has decreased... +110:15
PriceChild+110:16
apokryphosjenda: ok, but it wasn't just profanity.10:16
tonyyarussoI don't know much about it, but he seems generally competent.  Perhaps there could be some sort of probationary thing if it's a concern, an understanding just that folks are watching, but I'm fine +110:16
LjLwell, argument: i don't really know what has happened exactly, neither the "misbehavior" itself nor the "after-misbehavior". but if it mostly come down to very heated argument that ended up in un-CoC language and such... well, i think that can happen to everyone, and while not justifiable, it can be understandable10:16
jendaapokryphos: alright s/swearing/unCoCness/10:16
SeveasLjL, that's what I'm thinking as well10:16
SeveasLjL, so +1/-1 ?10:16
HobbseeOn that subject, i dont think that anything on another server, where i dont have a ubuntu hostmask, or have not explicitly said that i'm here for ubuntu, relates to ubuntu ops on freenode.10:17
LjLunless there is something important that i don't really know about, +110:17
Amaranthi think the final part of it was someone telling me i should do all my work outside of trunk of a project because i don't know how to program and me blowing up10:17
SeveasHobbsee, agreed, but this was done whilst wearing an Ubuntu cloak10:17
tonyyarussoAgreed @ Hobbsee - the hostmask is all10:17
HobbseeSeveas: i know.  related, not the same :)10:17
Amaranthbut there was general swearing and unkindness beforehand10:17
SeveasI see only +110:17
Seveasso welcome back Amaranth!10:17
Amaranthwoo10:17
jenda10:17

AmaranthMy first action will be to kick you all from -offtopic ;)10:18

Seveas(I'll restore access later, want to finish this before wifi runs out)10:18
apokryphos=)10:18
Seveassomerville32, the documents10:18
Seveasargh10:18
SeveasAGAIN10:18
LjL...10:18
=== Seveas kills his tab
Amaranthmaybe you just really like somerville32 ;)10:19
=== jenda comments that the comma and the tab are rather distant on what is probably Seveas' keyboard layout...
SeveasAmaranth, you have not read the last week of irc I assume :)10:19
Seveasjenda, I just hit tab too often10:19
jendaevil10:19
Seveasanyway, documents10:20
SeveasI'd like to add one more to that list: "What does the IRC ops team cover"10:20
Amaranthyes, that is one thing i wanted to bring up10:20
Seveasso let's do them in sequence10:21
jenda(Seveas: I hope you understand when I accidentally mis-complete your name instead of "Severe" and "Severred")10:21
Seveas1) Appointing ops10:21
Seveasjenda, ;)10:21
Seveascurrently that's per channel the channel contacts task10:21
SeveasBut I've heard lots of people wanting a unified team for the large channels10:21
Amaranthi thought you were the channel contact for them all :)10:21
Seveasso: shout input now please10:22
SeveasAmaranth, not really10:22
jendaAmaranth: Freenode Group Contact != channel contact10:22
apokryphosI think a bit of delegation is good, since some people only [want]  to operate in particular channels10:22
jendaand, we seem to have a third, internal, meaning of contact now.10:22
Amaranthjenda: i know but Seveas is the channel contact for a _lot_ of ubuntu channels10:22
jenda(but that should, IMHO, be equalized brutally with the channel contact)10:22
LjLi'd be tempted to say irc council, pending the approval of the channel contact (who may well ask the "local" operators an opinion before giving it)10:23
jendaAmaranth: 10:23
gnomefreak+1 ljl10:23
tonyyarussoI'd second LjL10:23
Seveasgood one10:23
Amaranth+1 LjL10:23
jenda+110:23
Hobbseesounds sane10:23
SeveasWhat do we do with current ops? If they want to help in certain channels, just poke channel contact?10:23
Amaranthyeah10:24
jendayep10:24
tonyyarussoYou mean like if I wanted to help in #kubuntu or something?10:24
Seveasyes10:24
naliothtonyyarusso: yes10:24
tonyyarusso'k, yeah that makes sense10:24
jendaSeveas: I think this warrants a list of team-approved channel contacts10:24
Seveas(channel contact for kubuntu being apokryphos for us)10:24
apokryphosand Hobbsee10:24
jendayay for bureaucracy :)10:24
Seveasjenda, full ack. You make the list :)10:25
gnomefreakSeveas: is the councel over #kubuntu?10:25
jendaDAMN!10:25
jendaSeveas: that's _not_ what i meant :)10:25
naliothgnomefreak: yes10:25
gnomefreaksince riddle is the only one really approving10:25
Seveasgnomefreak, that's the new document not on the list :)10:25
Seveasgnomefreak, not anymore10:25
jendaSeveas: but sure, if you feed them to me as they get approved...10:25
gnomefreakah ok10:25
apokryphosgnomefreak: me and Hobbsee have 3010:25
gnomefreakah10:25
Seveasso any other input for this one?10:25
LjLfor the record, my opinion on this is "no idea"10:26
Seveasheh10:26
apokryphosI think it sounds good10:26
AmaranthIf the council has approved you once why would they need to again?10:26
HobbseeSeveas: how can we cheak the channel contact?10:26
apokryphosbut note that we have a few ops, I believe, in here who are only ops of loco teams10:26
apokryphosthat perhaps needs a bit of clarification10:26
somerville32I just think we need to be careful not to step on people toes in regards to having one umbrella for IRC.10:26
SeveasHobbsee, there'll be a list in this document10:26
gnomefreakHobbsee: /cs info #channel10:26
Seveassomerville32, full ack10:26
Seveasbut that's not this doc yet10:26
Amaranthanyone with 30 access is a channel contact, no?10:26
PriceChildAmaranth, no10:27
LjLapokryphos: nothing, i think, would be saying that you *have* to give *any* member of the ops team +o in a given channel, if i'm understanding this correctly10:27
SeveasAmaranth, technically they can add ops10:27
Amaranthso jenda and PriceChild aren't contacts for #ubuntuforums? :)10:27
PriceChildAmaranth, I have 30 in #ubuntuforums for example... but only zenwhen is contact10:27
jendaAmaranth: not really.10:27
apokryphosthere is technically only one (or possibly two) channel contacts, but we're using channel contact = operator adders, here.10:27
jendaRight, next sub-issue, contact for #ubuntuforums :)10:27
naliothAmaranth: the questions was asked (i believe) about #kubuntu only10:27
SeveasLjL, the suggestion is to let the channel contact make that final decision10:27
Amaranthnalioth: i was just giving an example10:27
LjLSeveas, yes. in other words, IRC council says "ok, this person is eligible for being an Ubuntu op", then the channel contacts make a per-channel decision10:28
apokryphosLjL: right10:28
Amaranthbut i think if you've been given 30 access you should be the contact/team10:28
naliothnot necessarily, Amaranth10:28
jendazenwhen is the owner and founder of the channel, but doesn't seem to want to act as contact to the IRC team. PriceChild and myself will be 'contacts' in his stead, unless anyone objects?10:28
Seveasjenda, that's really internal to #ubuntuforums10:28
Seveasas long as you agree in there, that should be fine imho10:29
jendaSeveas: alright10:29
PriceChild:)10:29
Amaranthjenda: no way man, you suck :P10:29
AmaranthPriceChild: you too, don't smile10:29
jendaAmaranth: :)10:29
=== Amaranth runs
LjLor perhaps do we want some channels to have local ops without an IRC council approval? loco channels as has been mentioned?10:29
somerville32The dynamics in different channels vary greatly10:29
somerville32Some people might be good ops for certain channels but not others10:29
SeveasSo next: coverage of the ops team (which should solve some confusion)10:29
AmaranthLjL: well #ubuntuforums for example is apparently forums staff _only_10:29
jendaI think the IRC council should not have to approve channel ops.10:29
tonyyarussoI'm not aware of us currently approving loco ops at all, no?10:29
somerville32jenda++10:29
Seveastonyyarusso, no10:30
DBOtonyyarusso, I dont think they are10:30
apokryphosLjL: for sure, Loco teams are run by the LoCo admins.10:30
LjLok, so, it doesn't seem to me like this matter is clear yet10:30
SeveasLjL, that's why I want to discuss the coverage of the team now10:30
jendaAmaranth: well, it's decided by the channel contacts ;)10:30
LjLalrightie10:31
DBOLjL, thats because the system we are trying to describe is extremely complex, we all mentally know how it works, but that translates poorly to paper10:31
somerville32Maybe the IRC council should be directly responsible for overseeing the ops in the primary, public channels like -meeting, -offtopic, and #kubuntu, #ubuntu, and #xubuntu  and the team and LoCo group channels can be a bit more autonomous?10:31
Seveasso far the irc-ops team covers #ubuntu #ubuntu-offtopic #xubuntu #xubuntu-offtopic #kubuntu #kubuntu-offtopic #ubuntu+1 #ubuntu-meeting with #ubuntuforums joining10:31
apokryphosunless there are problems, we shouldn't be concerned with loco channels, yeah.10:31
DBO#ubuntu-xgl is large enough for consideration I would think10:31
Seveas#ubuntu-devel, #ubuntu-motu and other devel channels specifically are NOT covered except for emergencies10:31
Hobbseewhat about the -devel ones?10:32
apokryphosDBO: agreed10:32
Hobbseeand -motu10:32
Hobbseeshould they be?10:32
somerville32What about #xubuntu-devel ?10:32
tonyyarussoWe cover -meeting?  How so?10:32
Seveastonyyarusso, because I have meeting ;)10:32
tonyyarussoSeveas: ha, okay10:32
DBOsomerville32, -devel might be best to take a more hands off approach with10:32
somerville32Right10:32
jendaSeveas: #ubuntuforums joined the primary namespace... I'm not sure what you mean by the ubuntu-ops governing it? I think that team channels (-doc, -marketing, -xgl) are more specifically governed by it...10:32
jendas/govern/cover/10:32
Seveasanyway: I'd love it if other channels (like the -motu or #kubuntu-devel) to join under the umbrella but that has to be done at the contacts request10:33
apokryphosjenda: as in, what the Ubuntu IRC operators are concerned with10:33
jendaapokryphos: in which case it applies as i said10:33
apokryphosk-devel and -motu have never had problems, so I'm not sure if we should meddle in things there10:33
tonyyarussoMaybe we should just make a point of asking various contacts if they're interested?10:33
Seveastonyyarusso, +110:33
gnomefreakapokryphos: once or twice10:33
Seveasbut: what does it mean for them?10:33
apokryphosunless there are issues, I don't think we should get involved in a lot of those10:33
Seveasapokryphos, exactly10:34
gnomefreakand it was people from #ubuntu causing atleast one of the issues10:34
LjL+1 tonyyarusso, we can't stomp on their feet, and there is no clear line to say what "naturally belongs" to the ops team and what doesn't IMHO10:34
Seveaswhat I'm suggsting is: if they join, we can do things *in case of emergency* by poking freenode staff10:34
Hobbseeapokryphos: -motu sometimes does, with flamers and all that.  at the moment, there are no ops around who can deal with it most of the time, iirc.10:34
tonyyarussoMore people on who are used to taking care of problems should they arise, basically.  Not so much an intrusion as just a bunch of folks idling who will respond to !ops I suppose.10:34
jendaOne point: anything that starts with #ubuntu, #kubuntu, #xubuntu or #ubuntuforums and is followed by a non-alphanumeric character is under the ultimate power of the Ubuntu group contact: Seveas.10:34
jenda(FYI)10:34
Hobbseeactually, i've had trouble in both -devel channels, too (but have ops there)10:35
apokryphosHobbsee: I think I've only ever seen one occurence, but perhaps I don't look closely enough.10:35
Seveasjenda, that's only from freenode point of view10:35
Seveasjenda, my habds are very much tied when it coms to the ubuntu side10:35
DBOSeveas bondage =P10:35
jendaSeveas: yes, I'm saying as it makes it possible to implementing the decision at this meeting even if the current operators disagree.10:35
apokryphosI think we should move to have @freenode/staff in pretty much all channels10:35
jendawoo ;)10:36
Seveasactually, if we get our documents and governance working right, I hope to get permission to make the other members of the council group contacts as well10:36
Seveasapokryphos, +110:36
DBOdo we need that though10:36
DBOI mean I have no issue with it10:36
Seveasjenda, is it possible to get cloaks that end with a .?10:36
jendaSeveas: only if that's your nick :)10:36
Seveas(so just the . and not the ?)10:36
apokryphosDBO: it just means that if there's something going on, the staffer has the blessing to intervene10:36
LjLapokryphos, Seveas: what exactly would the difference be between that (i.e. the contacts adds Freenode staff with level 10) and what's been proposed (i.e. make them "under" the ops team, with ops calling staff)?10:36
apokryphosotherwise their hands are tied back (unless they're breaking Freenode policy explicitly)10:37
jendaSeveas: what are you thinking of, particularly?10:37
jendaSeveas: I believe .s are valid cloak characters - look at nalioth ;)10:37
apokryphosLjL: since that's the policy required for Freenode staffers intervening10:37
Seveasjenda, giving the team-approved ops a not too special cloak that can be wildcarded10:37
apokryphosLjL: i.e. it's a Freenode thing10:37
naliothDBO: having other council members as freenode GCs makes sense, as the Ubuntu IRC community has grown quite large and officially only a GC can do certain things10:37
HobbseeGC?10:38
jendaSeveas: shouldn't be a problem.10:38
LjLapokryphos: right, but then what does putting the IRC ops team umbrella on those channel add to that?10:38
jendaHobbsee: Group Contact10:38
DBOnalioth, ok you win =P10:38
SeveasHobbsee, group contact10:38
Hobbseeah10:38
SeveasLjL, that's what we are discussing :)10:38
Seveassuggestions are welcome10:38
apokryphosLjL: I presume it'd mean giving some ubuntu ops access there, but that's the issue.10:38
SeveasIt may be possible to wildcard all ops in an access list10:38
PriceChildI like the idea of the fallback .'d nick...10:38
Seveas(see my discussion with jenda)10:39
SeveasWe should not do ubuntu/op/$someone10:39
Seveasbut an inconspicuous . at the end is doable10:39
jendahmm10:39
PriceChilds/nick/cloak10:39
tonyyarussoWhat's a . mean?10:39
LjLas long as it's very clear that only serious emergencies should be handled by "dot-ops", i guess10:39
apokryphosdon't like the idea; it still wouldn't work for people who don't have cloaks10:39
=== tonyyarusso is confused
gnomefreaktonyyarusso: atm nothing10:40
tonyyarussognomefreak: oooh10:40
Seveastonyyarusso, nothing, but if all ops have a cloak ending in a . it can be asily wildcarded10:40
jendatonyyarusso: Seveas@ubuntu/member./Seveas10:40
tonyyarussogot it10:40
PriceChildtonyyarusso, basically the idea of a format of cloaks for 'just' approved ops10:40
Seveasjenda, no ubuntu/member/seveas.10:40
jendaSeveas: nope...10:40
Seveasthe /member/ should preferably not change10:40
jendaSeveas: at the end, it has to be your nick.10:40
Seveashmm10:40
apokryphosI think it's a bad call, since like we said before operators are ops in some places, and not others10:40
gnomefreakmove the . to just before nick?10:40
Seveaswho do I need to talk to in freenode staff for an exception10:40
apokryphos(to the channel contact's and the IRC council's discretion)10:41
Seveasapokryphos, adding the wildcard to the list is voluntary10:41
jendaSeveas: by being GC, you have the right for user@group/*/nick10:41
SeveasI'd do it in -meeting for instance10:41
naliothSeveas: an exception to what?10:41
Seveasnalioth, to allow the dot-at-the-end even though it's not in the nick10:41
apokryphosSeveas: but not all operators have cloaks10:41
jendaapokryphos: huh? They don't?10:41
SeveasI used to discuss such things with lilo10:41
tonyyarussoWould it really be so bad to just make a few access lists a few lines longer?10:41
LjLjenda: /whois ljl10:42
Seveasjenda, not all of them are members10:42
apokryphosjenda: /whois $me, DBO, LjL10:42
Seveastonyyarusso, it would need maintenance after approved/disapproved ops10:42
jendaLjL: do you want an unaffiliated cloak?10:42
jenda:)10:42
tonyyarussoSeveas: True10:42
Amaranthhow are you an op and not a member?10:42
tonyyarussoIt would be nice if we had a good way to track that10:42
Amaranthi thought we all had to be members10:42
jendaAmaranth: simple: not required.10:42
SeveasAmaranth, not neccessarily10:42
apokryphosAmaranth: not necessarily.10:42
naliothSeveas: it'd have to be @ubuntu/member./* no?10:42
Seveashelping and op'ing can be a good contribution10:42
LjLjenda: i made a point to not ask for one :P perhaps i'll apply for ubuntu membership anyway, sooner or later10:42
jendaSeveas: why wouldn't ubuntu/member./nick do?10:42
jendaLjL: gah!10:43
DBOjenda, not all ops are members =P10:43
Seveasnalioth, right now yes, but I want to talk to someone about the possibility of changing that10:43
apokryphosI still think it's a bad idea... all this effort just for -meeting?10:43
jendaDBO: most have cloaks, though.10:43
Seveasnot just there10:43
Seveasother channels can vry much benefit10:43
naliothSeveas: you are the GC. you make any cloaks you like in the Ubuntu name space10:43
apokryphosSeveas: where else?10:43
Amaranth*cough*10:43
Seveasnalioth, ah, jenda just told me that it had to be the nickname on the end10:44
Amaranththis part is taking too long10:44
gnomefreakhow do the non member ops feel about haivng an unaff. cloak?10:44
Seveasapokryphos, -doc -motu -xgl, locoteams10:44
Seveasto name but a fw10:44
AmaranthXGL is ours?10:44
DBOyes10:44
jendaof course10:44
SeveasAmaranth, true, but it needs to be fleshed out10:44
SeveasAmaranth, #ubuntu-xgl10:44
gnomefreakor whatever other cloaks freenode hands out10:44
jendaAmaranth: everything is.10:44
Amaranthno no, i'm saying seveas owns -xgl10:44
Amaranthso we don't need the dot thing there10:44
apokryphos-locoteams is boring, -xgl shouldn't have everyone necessarily, and -doc have their own governance (with plenty of people around, it seems)10:44
LjLgnomefreak, i won't kill myself, but on the other hand i don't feel to pressed to believe that, as a non-Ubuntu member, i *should* have operator privileges on just about about everywhere10:45
naliothSeveas: it can be as you specify, you are GC.  unafilliated cloak syntax is set in stone, not project cloaks10:45
apokryphos-motu might need some ops, but I'm not sure that the solution is giving everyone ops there10:45
jendaAmaranth: he owns all #ubuntu-* channels, by freenode policy.10:45
Seveasnalioth, thanks10:45
Amaranthok but -xgl is a user channel10:45
apokryphosAmaranth: /cs info #ubuntu-xgl -- yeah10:45
gnomefreakLjL: my point being about giving non-members cloaks to we can add the . or * where ever im not sure if it works withoput a cloak10:45
jendaSeveas: nothing is preventing approved ops from registering their nick. and setting it as primary :)10:45
Seveasok, I see resistance and we're not getting any further10:45
jendaSeveas: actually, that would do it...10:46
Seveasmaybe we should all think more about it and defer for now10:46
apokryphosagreed10:46
gnomefreakdbo == member i thought10:46
gnomefreakapokryphos: and LjL are good canidates IMHO10:46
Seveas"Dealing with abuse from operators"10:46
LjLgnomefreak: yes, i got that, but perhaps we could *want* non-member operators to be excluded from that wildcard. that's a point to consider. some channels might not like the idea of non-ubuntu members to have op privs, even though they might be OK with the "ops team" in general to be able to act in emergencies10:46
=== Hobbsee abuses her uni website
SeveasI think that's too generic and always will be a case-by-case matter for the IRC council10:46
apokryphosright10:47
jendaagreed10:47
Seveasfeel free to disagree and comment, I'd like to be wrong here10:47
naliothi think that adding new ops to the channels should be run by the council by the channel owner/contact (just so we can keep up)10:47
jendaI believe, however, that any user should be at least heard out by other ops in #ubuntu-ops.10:47
LjLwell as long as it's voluntary for the specific channel contact anyway, it should not be much of an issue, as long as there is no reason why they would feel *compelled* to accept this10:48
tonyyarussoI'd say just bite the bullet and do normal individual access entries, and figure out some decent way of tracking those.10:48
DBOjenda++10:48
Seveasjenda, full ack, the appeal process from the usrs side should not change10:48
LjLnalioth++, but i think that's not really disputed10:48
Seveasanyone comments about the ops abuse item?10:49
SeveasHow do we deal with it if the abusing op is a council membr?10:49
LjLthere are other council members10:49
Hobbseethen they dont decide themselves?10:49
apokryphosright10:50
somerville321) I think that we could create some process to allow users to have some sort of official hearing with the IRC Council10:50
SeveasI think if a council member is abusive, the others should have the power to start a vote to remove the abuser from the council10:50
somerville32s/official/official public10:50
Seveassomerville32, +1 good call10:50
Hobbseetrue10:50
HobbseeSeveas: what kind of abuse are we talking about though?10:50
tonyyarussoYeah, the other x council members would decide after hearing from people involved.10:50
apokryphossomerville32: sounds good enough; similar to the CC method would be good.10:50
LjLSeveas +110:50
Hobbseeand are we talking about one night of it, or repeated?10:51
jendaSeveas: a private complaint mailing list for the council?10:51
SeveasHobbsee, like me kicking out LjL because he makes fun of me10:51
tonyyarussoFor the individual case, what you said afterwards or whatever10:51
Seveasjenda, I tend to lean to -1 there for now10:51
apokryphosHobbsee: each situation would have to be assessed, but it'd have to be quite serious if someone would consider them losing their post10:51
jendaHobbsee: or you kicking GazzaK for... well... for...10:51
jenda;)10:51
jendaSeveas: ok10:51
SeveasHobbsee, depends on the severity10:51
somerville32What would one do if a member of the CC abused their powers?10:51
Seveasjenda, no, kicking gazzak should ALWAYS be possible :)10:51
HobbseeSeveas: presumably not including joke kicking, or something10:51
HobbseeSeveas: indeed :D10:51
apokryphossomerville32: CC don't have powers apart from at the council, so :P10:52
PriceChildthat gonna be a special clause at thebottom of the document? :)10:52
SeveasPriceChild, heh10:52
jendaHobbsee: I think joke kicking isn't good in public channels.10:52
LjLHobbsee: what he's saying is just that the *other* IRC council members would have the ability to remove a council member. they wouldn't *have* to take such a vote as soon as someone cries "abuse!", unless i've totally misunderstood something10:52
gnomefreakif your gonna have "fun" kicking than a non op cant vote for anything or all kicks fun or not will be veiwed aas abuse of poweer10:52
jendaHobbsee: it defeats the whole purpose of hidden ops.10:52
somerville32apokryphos, Not isn't quite true. The CC group owns a lot of groups on launchpad ;] 10:52
Seveasjenda, I think we covered that extensively last meeting10:52

somerville32In the case of abuse on the IRC Council, shouldn't that goto the CC since it would most likely be a violation of the CoC and LCoC?10:53
somerville32s/on/from10:53
Seveassomerville32, good point10:53
gnomefreak+110:53
apokryphosyes, that's what the Council is there for10:53
LjLsurely. but we can't decide about that here - that's already decided for us10:53
apokryphosbut matters should *first* go to the IRC council, before being escalated.10:53
LjLyes10:54
naliothsomerville32: there are supposed to be 3 members on the irc council for such occasions10:54
somerville32But when it comes to it, do you really think that another member of the IRC Council can be impartial about it?10:54
somerville32I mean, we (for the most part) are a closed nit of people10:54
Seveassomerville32, the future will learn10:54
somerville32I consider most of you friends10:54
tonyyarussoPerhaps abuse by a most ops are dealt with by our own council, abuse by our council goes to CC.10:54
Seveasyou can't see everything in advance10:54
somerville32tonyyarusso++10:55
apokryphoswe can't begin on the presumption that they cannot be impartial to a reasonable extent, anyhow.10:55
Seveasnot everything should be completely set in stone10:55
jendatonyyarusso++10:55
Seveasapokryphos, indeed10:55
LjLif the way the IRC council deals with anything (and yes, it *has* to be the IRC council dealing with it *first* IMHO) does not satisfy the person who appealed to it, then to CC it goes, i'd say10:55
SeveasI think I've heard enough to make a first draft of this page and would like to move along10:55
LjLthat deals with the possible partiality of the IRC council i think10:55
gnomefreakseveas kicking Hobbsee shouldnt really need to go to CC unless it happens often10:55
apokryphoscool. Ok, what elese?10:55
gnomefreakjust example10:56
Seveasrewording guidelines10:56
Hobbseegnomefreak: and i have a problem with it10:56
gnomefreaklol10:56
SeveasI think it's a good idea to simply split off ops guidelines and make it a lot more thorough10:56
Seveasincluding things like "#10:56

gnomefreak+110:57
somerville32+110:57
LjLwe've often had attacks where +rR was, as far as i could see, totally uneffective10:57
apokryphosSeveas: before I forget to mention it, +J does detect netsplits. It's only bad when Chanserv crashes10:57
apokryphoswhich is very rare I think10:57
Seveasapokryphos, that must be new10:57
Seveasnice :)10:57
LjLi'd like to understand what technically is the best way to deal with massive attacks10:57
gnomefreak+r10:58
tonyyarussoCan jenda or nalioth confirm that point?  That would be useful to know.10:58
DBOLjL, especially during netsplits...10:58
apokryphosI think it's worth mentioning a bit about +r and +R10:58
SeveasLjL, +r, followed by the apparently safe +J and as last resort +i10:58
apokryphos+R stops registered users from talking. Unless there are talking bots, this shouldn't ever be set!10:58
gnomefreak+r doesnt really do much once +r is in place does it?10:58
apokryphosfor persistent join/part bots, +r is what to set10:58
gnomefreaks/+r/+R10:58

Seveasnalioth, +110:58
tonyyarussoI once had to use +i, since +r didn't work and +J was unavailable.  It kind of worked.10:58
LjLSeveas, i have also used +mz with manual relaying of relevant messages, comments on that?10:58
apokryphosnalioth: sounds good10:59
gnomefreaknalioth: +110:59
SeveasLjL, if you can keep up with the pace it's nice10:59
apokryphosLjL: it's bad, since most bots don't talk, and they aren't registered.10:59
Seveasbut that smells like 'last resort' measure10:59
apokryphosright10:59
LjLapokryphos, most bots *were* registered in the last attacks i witnessed...10:59
tonyyarussoLjL: Do you then +v people who seem human and sane?10:59
LjLat least, my +rR didn't do them anything10:59
apokryphosthey still talked in the channel?11:00
LjLtonyyarusso: i did that last time, after Flannel suggested me to in -offtopic11:00
apokryphosok, then that's a chance for +mz, but it's certainly *very* rare11:00
DBOtonyyarusso, I think I would go through a bit of backscroll and +i those who were talking before11:00

Seveasif bans are not to be removed it should be discussed on the mailing list11:01
naliothbans should not last over 24 hours, unless under extenuating circumstances11:01
apokryphosif it's a controversial issue it should be discussed11:01
LjLok, i'll put this another way: when you have 20+ bots who do 1) privmsg 2) notice 3) ctcp with 1) obscene language 2) insults to operators 3) DCC exploits...   is +mz for some 5 minutes adequate if +rR doesn't quite work? :-)11:01
Seveasnalioth, -111:01
SeveasLjL, more than that :)11:01
gnomefreakops removing other ops bans because they dont like it?11:02
apokryphosLjL: if +R doesn't work, it means they're registered so like I said -- yeah.11:02
tonyyarussoWith care on that Seveas - for instance Madpilot removed one of the four bans set for KillerDemon before I noticed and pointed him at the bantracker comment.  If we comment extensively and check those it should be okay.11:02
apokryphosgnomefreak: no, that always happens through discussion.11:02
Seveastonyyarusso, true11:02
PriceChildI think that because of the ban tracker... its obvious whether any unCoC has happenned... and any unCoC'ness should wait until the banning op decides its time to remove it.11:02
gnomefreakthe old age is fine but its stall bad because i may not know bleh was banned for something bad11:02
LjLcommenting bans will help us determining stuff i'm sure11:03
DBOwe need to decide on a ban age limit here11:03
DBOIP's change hands11:03
tonyyarusso"because they don't like it" would be a bad reason, imo.  We discussed in great depth procedures for that, and "just remove" was nowhere among them.11:03
Seveas*brainwave* Is there a better idea to communicate bans than the bantracker or can the bantracker be imporved?11:03
somerville32Seveas++11:03
LjLfor instance, i removed a ban by Seveas once, based on the fact that the comment (well, the remove message, but anyway) explicitly specified that it would last for a day11:03
DBOSeveas, give the bot a way to do it11:03
gnomefreakapokryphos: that happened the other day witha  well know troll gateway thats why it was added (also because of the large ban list in #ubuntu)11:03
=== Hobbsee doesnt use the bantracker
SeveasDBO, that's easier said than done11:04

tonyyarussoSeveas: Can Ubugtu /msg us an hour later to harass us if we forgot to go comment it?  ;)  (j/k..maybe)11:04
Seveashow about @check [nickname-or-mask-here] 11:04
somerville32Maybe we could have mail notification on bans or something and then make use of mutes more then bans to reduce spam?11:04

tonyyarussoBAM!11:15
=== Tm_T hides
=== jenda has one more issue on his list
Seveasjenda, if somerville32 has shot, you can aim11:15
=== jenda aims :)
somerville32What happens if a ban is found unfair but the ban has already elapsed before the powers that be convene for a hearing?11:16
jendasomerville32 has'nt shot, however :)11:16
jendait was tonyyarusso :)11:16
LjLnothing happens imho11:16
tonyyarussoLjL: ++11:16
jendathe person can be unbanned ceremoniously again.11:16
tonyyarusso"Learn from the experience for next time"11:16
somerville32Do we just say "Sorry, better luck next time?" or what?11:16
PriceChild+1 tonyyarusso11:16
SeveasLjL, -1, I think a user should still have the option of filing a complaint11:16
apokryphossomerville32: depends on the situation. We can apologise for it perhaps, but nothing else really needs to happen.11:16
PriceChildsomerville32, if they want to take it further with the council then they can11:17
LjLSeveas: yes, no need for any sort of automatic procedure for "when an elapsed ban is found unfair" though11:17
tonyyarussoSeveas: I like that too, but what does that filing actually do, ultimately?  I'm not clear where it goes from there.11:17
DBOSeveas, I dont mean to sound negative, but those that are banned seem to me quite likely to simply file complaints out of spite11:17
gnomefreakthan you have the everytime whiners11:17
SeveasLjL, +111:17
jendaSeveas: well, considering the decisions made on approving new ops, I suppose my issue is now irrelevant11:17
SeveasDBO, that also holds when they're srill banned11:17
DBOSeveas, of course, but what gets done about it?11:18
SeveasI simply don't think we should ignore a complaint if a user has been unbanned already11:18
=== Hobbsee thwacks apokryphos
Seveasgood question11:18
Hobbseeapokryphos: YOU DONT KICK NON-RESPONDING CLIENTS, MMMKAY?11:18
Seveasthat's something the IRC council has to figure out11:18
jendaHobbsee: unless they have public away...11:18
Hobbseejenda: well of course11:18
jenda(oh, and !caps ;)11:18
somerville32I mean, It isn't like we have "get unbanned free"  or "get $5 off your next purchase" cards to hand out ;] 11:18
apokryphosHobbsee: hehe, that evil pointy stick. You don't have autojoin on invite too :P11:19
gnomefreakdo we remove for public aways or do we warn them?11:19
Seveasjenda, I'm not entirely sure but it's best defered to when a first draft of the "what do we cover" and "how to appoint ops" docs are available11:19
naliothif the user has been unbanned already and complains, the situation will be parsed by the IRCC and the op spoken with if necessary (or the situation ignored, if it's a 'whiner/constant filer over nothing)11:19
Seveasgnomefreak, remove11:19
gnomefreakk11:19
Hobbseeapokryphos: thought i did, but i dont look at hte irssi config much11:19
Seveaspolicy has always been remove11:19
LjLSeveas: perhaps if the user complains, and the IRC council finds the complain is justified, a bantracker comment should be added saying that the ban was found unnecessary11:19
apokryphosHobbsee: irssi user now? :O11:19
somerville32I look forward to the next meeting11:19
LjLwhen i ban people by mistake (err... yes... i do that), i generally add a bantracker comment to that effect11:19
SeveasLjL, that's the least that should be done imho11:19
Hobbseeapokryphos: no.11:19
apokryphoscomplaints don't necessarily have to go to the council11:20
jendaSeveas: alright.11:20
somerville32I'd like to look at op conduct expectations and guidelines for ops to follow when dealing with different situations.11:20
somerville32(for the next meeting)11:20
apokryphosif someone appeals a ban, they simply appeal in here. It *can* be escalated to the council, but that doesn't mean it has to.11:20

tonyyarussoLjL: I would add that comment regardless probably, if just concluded in regular discussion too.11:20

somerville32apokryphos, ok11:21
somerville32then +1 from me11:21

tonyyarussognomefreak: as long as it's polite and productive.11:21
gnomefreakthere have been some that lasted an hour or so IMHO thats 45 minutes too long11:21
apokryphosgnomefreak: we can try to explain it several times, but if things aren't getting anywhere after a while it can't go on.11:21
Jucatoum... shouldn't we first warn public away users first before removing them? some just don't know the policy and disable it right after they have been informed11:21
SeveasLjL, if an op gets more complaints (s)he may be removed from the team perhaps11:21
SeveasLjL, that's more something that has to grow than decided now11:22
LjLSeveas: but that's for the IRC council itself to decide, no?11:22
apokryphosright11:22
LjLi mean - the IRC council *already* has the power to revoke access - no?11:22
gnomefreakJucato: how do you warn someone that isnt there?11:22
SeveasLjL, yes11:22
somerville32re: "What do when...?" maybe the IRC council could come up with a document that describes general procedures and then we can review and approve it as a team at the next meeting?11:22
tonyyarussoJucato: Depends if you feel nice :)  I often warn, yes, but don't mind removing either (especially in the major chans)11:22

gnomefreakJucato: do all clients log when away?11:23
Seveas/remove is the only way to make 100% sure they notice something's wrong :)11:23
LjLtonyyarusso: removing has the advantage of being logged in the tracker (hopefully commented), and that helps with dealing with users that are never *very* abusive but are *often* abusive11:23
naliothgnomefreak: you can't assume so11:23
tonyyarussoLjL: agreed11:23
tonyyarusso/remove + !away >11:23
gnomefreaki agree with the remove since that is how its always been11:23
apokryphoswe don't have to set it in stone; no problem with using judgement11:23
Seveasif someone feels like annoying me: file a bug that says "detect kickbans and only create one entry in the tracker kthxbye"11:24
somerville32apokryphos, Right11:24
Jucatoer sorry had to go /away ironically...11:24
LjLapokryphos ++11:24
somerville32apokryphos, But guidelines would be good to offer consistency11:24
LjLSeveas: wasn't that already filed and rejected? /me hides :P11:24
SeveasLjL, maybe11:24
gnomefreaksomerville32: the pages you are talking about have already been agreed to be writen11:24
Seveasanyway: anyone else want to discuss something in the 10 minutes I have left?11:25
jendaJucato: a kick is considered a warning11:25
somerville32Since the CC has already been notified of the incident that happened the other week, where are we going to go from here?11:25
tonyyarussoIf not you can always pass the treats around again.11:25
LjLwell, one thing. when is a ban considered appropriate in *this* channel?11:25
Seveasif a user clearly misbehaves?11:25
apokryphosyeah11:26
Seveasand at least two ops agree on the ban?11:26
tonyyarussoLjL: When they go on and on and on and/or are non-CoC here11:26
LjLSeveas: define clearly misbehaves11:26
somerville32Seveas++11:26
SeveasLjL, that's what I have you for ;)11:26
tonyyarussoWell, no.  Mute for case one if necessary, ban for case two.11:26
LjLtonyyarusso++. but is non-CoCness good enough to justify a ban?11:26
Jucatojenda: I guess so... it might just be a bit disconcerting on the end of the user if he finds himself kicked for a first offense (probably)11:26
Seveasactually:11:26
naliothif a banned user comes in here to appeal, and will not let it go. . . .11:26
jendaJucato: second offense.11:27
SeveasI think we should *never* ban in here11:27
Seveasonly mute11:27
tonyyarussoLjL: I think so myself - although it should be more than a "Won't remove my ban?  Damn."11:27
somerville32Seveas++11:27
jendaJucato: the first offence is not reading the guidelines ;)11:27
Seveasand ban if they part/join spam11:27
Jucatojenda: heheh :P11:27
gnomefreakhow about only the councel can ban from here?11:27
LjLSeveas: that works11:27
Seveas(so NEVER is not true)11:27
PriceChildSeveas, what happens instead then?11:27
Seveasgnomefreak, -111:27
tonyyarussoI'm fine only mute, yeah11:27
PriceChildjust mute?11:27
jendaSeveas: can you even join a channel when 'muted'?11:27
SeveasPriceChild, they can still read and cool down a bit11:27
naliothmute and ban on join/part flood11:27
Seveasjenda, yes11:27
naliothjenda: yes11:27
Jucatomute +111:27
somerville32jenda: yes11:27
gnomefreakmute person leaves comes back no more mute11:27
=== jenda goes learn
naliothgnomefreak: no.11:27
Seveasgnomefreak, not true11:27
LjLperhaps when a user comes here to appeal, *AS SOON AS* he even slightly violates the CoC, he should be pointed to !etiquette11:27
somerville32gnomefreak, no11:28
gnomefreakno?11:28
LjLthen a mute is justified if they don't tone down11:28

PriceChildah.... that's what the % means at the start of the ban :)11:28

tonyyarussoLjL: Yeah, will be a pondering for later.12:14
tonyyarussoOf course, having an API isn't the same as having code for your client ;)12:14
LjLand i've left out the "unban timer" for now, i can't quite picture a implementation in my head12:15
LjLtonyyarusso: it sure isn't, but then the same guy who can close those bugs is also known for making nasty utility scripts for certain clients12:15

LjLtonyyarusso: define "someone". you can't just give a nick, because bans are by mask... and giving a mask might not be easiest otoh12:16
LjLalso, should the @unban command work for other people's bans, or just for your own? i see *cough* political issues on this :)12:16
tonyyarussoLjL: /abr nick is the syntax for my kickbanner.  For ubugtu, it could either be by mask or your most recent.12:17
