dholbachhello everybody - do we have a motu meeting right now?11:02
sistpotyhi dholbach11:02
ajmitchwe do!11:02
dholbachI thought maybe everybody was out to celebrate Valentine's day :)11:02
ajmitchat least I hope we have enough people11:02
ajmitchI think a few are11:02
ajmitch(or just sleeping)11:02
dholbachok... who's here?11:02
ajmitchlaserjock sends his apologies, 2AM isn't suitable11:02
TheMusoValentine's day? Who'd waste their time with that?11:03
jsgotangcolol11:03
ajmitchTheMuso: people who aren't single :)11:03
TheMusoThats understandable IMO11:03
=== geser [n=mb@ubuntu/member/geser] has joined #ubuntu-meeting
ajmitchhey jsgotangco :)11:03
=== jsgotangco gives TheMuso @}--,--
dholbachhttp://xkcd.com/c223.html11:03
sistpotyajmitch: I tend to agree... 11am isn't suitable *g*11:03
ajmitchsistpoty: I'm impressed that you're awake at this early hour :)11:03
dholbachscottk has an item on the agenda, but doesn't seem to be here11:03
=== tmarble notes 4 AM isn't ultra suitable either, :)
ajmitchso the rest is sistpoty? :)11:04
sistpotyajmitch: well... awake is a different state than I'm in now *g+11:04
dholbachsistpoty: you have some items on the agenda - why don't you start us off?11:04
sistpotyok11:04
sistpotyanyone volunteering for the minutes?11:04
ajmitchum11:04
=== ajmitch may as well
sistpotycool, thx ajmitch11:05
TheMusoajmitch: I will if you'd rather not.11:05
TheMusoI don't mind you doing it, but if you really don't want to.11:05
ajmitchTheMuso: ok, thanks :)11:05
sistpotygreat, thx TheMuso11:05
sistpotylet's get started, right?11:05
=== TheMuso is autologging so can follow up.
sistpotyfirst item: Proposal to drop the requirement for MOTU's to have new packages reviewed11:05
sistpotywell... we're always lagging with revu behind11:06
ajmitchand enough MOTUs skip this step11:06
sistpotyand imo it doesn't seem that sane that motu's should have the same requirements as non-motus to bring new packages in11:06
TheMusoAs well as already having the rights and responsibilities that come with the title of MOTU.11:07
ajmitchit wasn't the same, but it was 1 other ACK11:07
sistpotypractices differ ;)11:07
ajmitchyeah11:07
TheMusoYep.11:07
ajmitchthe intended practice was that a MOTU upload to REVU & get 1 other MOTU to check it11:08
sistpotywell... I'd propose that motu's are "encouraged to get a new package reviewed" instead of forcing them to go through revu11:08
sistpotywhat do you think?11:08
ajmitchthat has frequently been skipped by MOTUs who've been around awhile :)11:08
ajmitchsure11:08
TheMusoI like that.11:08
dholbachI agree, TheMuso has a point... although I think that probably the MC should take that decision once it's active. This decision has more consequences than others.11:08
TheMusoOne area that other reviewing is useful is copyright related stuff.11:08
tfheenas an archive team member, I'd be fine with you dropping the requirement, but if it ends up being even more rejects because of it, I'd like you to reconsider.11:08
TheMusoFair enough.11:09
sistpotygreat11:09
sistpotyany objections?11:10
dholbachwhat do you think about deferring the decision to the first MC meeting?11:10
ajmitchsounds fair11:10
sistpotyfine with me11:10
TheMusoYep. I'm sure crimsun would have something to say on this.11:10
dholbachwe gathered enough arguments now, but I think that a policy decision should be made by the MC11:10
dholbachalrighty, let's move on11:10
sistpotyok... scottk isn't here, right?11:11
dholbachyeah, let's move on - we can discuss his question on the mailing list11:11
sistpotyDecide on standard policy for upstream debian dirs11:11
dholbachI don't think it's necessary to have a policy for that, but a "best practice" bit in the FAQ maybe11:11
=== finalbeta [n=finalbet@d5152A68A.access.telenet.be] has joined #ubuntu-meeting
dholbachshall I kick off a thread on the mailing list for that?11:12
TheMusoI saw one package that renamed upstream's debian to debian.upstream.11:12
sistpotywell... it was discussed on the ml in the past, but without a result11:12
sistpotyso I'd rather discuss it here to have it settled11:12
dholbachok, there are 3 possibilities: 1) remove it, 2) rename it, 3) leave it (and in all cases talk to upstream to get it removed there)11:12
dholbach(maybe also: repackage, native package)11:13
=== ajmitch tends towards leave it + fix it
TheMusoI have seen many a package that ships with .spec files etc for rpm based distros, so what has been the problem with upstream providing a debian dir in the past?11:13
sistpotyimo the first thing would always be to ask upstream to remove it... if that won't work, I'd tend to say that any packager may do as he seems fit11:13
sistpotyTheMuso: the problem is that you cannot remove files from it (unless you remove them from the tarball) and that the .diff.gz looks kinda weird11:14
ajmitchTheMuso: it's harder to change a number of files in a .diff.gz, since it doesn't track deletions well11:14
TheMusoRight.11:14
dholbachI don't think I'd dictate a workflow there.11:14
ajmitchit depends on how messy upstream's debian/ is11:14
ajmitchso up to the packager11:15
ajmitchI think the issue was new people getting conflicting advice11:15
=== juliux [n=juliux@ubuntu/member/juliux] has joined #ubuntu-meeting
dholbachwho wants to add a blurb to MOTU/FAQ? :)11:15
sistpotyok... everybody agreeing that it's up to the packager?11:15
TheMusoYep.11:15
dholbachyeah11:15
sistpotygreat11:16
sistpotyI'll add the text to motu/faq, if no one else is faster ;)11:16
sistpotylet's move on, shall we?11:16
dholbachsure11:16
dholbachthanks sistpoty11:16
TheMusoyep ok11:16
ajmitchmake it a fast meeting :)11:16
sistpoty:)11:16
sistpotywell, this was discussed on the ml as well... do we want zero-install injector?11:16
tmarblehere's a naive question... if upstream debian/ is significantly changed does that hamper fix flow back to debian (i.e. does not minimize the debian-ubuntu diff)?11:16
ajmitchseems like there's only 4 of us here & active11:17
ajmitchtmarble: in this case, upstream is the original author, rather than debian11:17
TheMusoWhat is zero-install injector?11:17
tmarbleajmitch, ah i see (sorry for the confusion)11:17
sistpotyTheMuso: it let's an user install packages, which get downloaded by some means11:17
ajmitchtmarble: often the original upstream project might have someone who's contributing packaging in their project, and it's not in debian yet11:18
dholbachsistpoty: do we have a link to the project? who wanted to bring it into ubuntu? it sounds more like an archive admin decision to me?11:18
grimacewww.0install.net11:18
ajmitchsistpoty: I'm not really a fan of more breakage, but I've heard less scary things about zeroinstall than about autopackage11:18
tsmithei think we should let 0install in, on the basis of not what it is, but it being an ok and legal package. we don't have to support it's efforts11:19
sistpotytfheen: still there? could you share us your opinion on zero-install?11:19
dholbachask pitti :)11:19
tfheensistpoty: let me take a look.11:19
ajmitchsee if he runs away screaming?11:19
sistpotywell, I reviewed the package (also looking at the code a lilttle bit) and it didn't seem too offensive security wise11:19
tfheenlike klik, it seems.11:20
sistpotyhowever it provides an alternate means to install software11:20
talexHi guys. I'm the author of Zero Install, so if you have any technical questions, ask away...11:20
sistpotyso I'm really undecided11:20
sistpotyhi talex11:20
grimaceI've been running it for years very nicely ;)11:20
sistpotyhow about letting archive admins decide on this issue?11:20
dholbachsistpoty++11:21
TheMusoTHat sounds sane to me.11:21
tfheendepends on how it works, but if it's like klik which does something like MacOS disk images, I'm fine with it, from an archive POV, but I think we can offer a much better user experience by packaging the software properly.11:21
tfheentalex might be able to comment (short) on that?11:21
grimacetfheen: then it will be up to the user to agree with you?11:21
talexIt installs to a self contained directory, rather than a disk image, but same principle.11:21
talexAlso, the download is an XML file, rather than a shell script, but the effect is the same.11:22
tfheenok.11:23
tfheenfrom an archive point of view, that's fine with me and as long as it doesn't end up tripping the rest of the system (*cough* autopackage *cough*) it shouldn't cause problems either.11:23
talexRight. It will never install anything outside of ~/.cache/0install.net or (if run as root) /var/cache/0install.net11:24
sistpotytfheen: ok, then I'll just upload the package and you can look at it via new... ok?11:24
tfheensistpoty: sure.11:25
sistpotygreat... let's move on11:25
ajmitchgreat, halfway through the meeting items11:25
dholbachsistpoty wants to review the uvf-process11:25
ajmitchUVF team/process11:25
ajmitchsome confusion here11:25
sistpotywell... UVF has just started...11:25
dholbachslomo, siretart and I agreed to have the same uvf team again to avoid having to vote etc again11:25
dholbachthe next team should be appointed by the MC (in time!) :)11:26
dholbachwe just didn't want to have a delay because of that11:26
=== lukketto [n=lukketto@host86-8-dynamic.7-87-r.retail.telecomitalia.it] has joined #ubuntu-meeting
TheMusodholbach: Makes sense.11:26
sistpotyok... have there been many UVF requests yet? are you getting along well?11:26
dholbachatm there are 7 open afaik11:26
=== ajmitch wasn't sure if he was meant to vote or not, so refrained from confusing people :)
sistpoty(basically the item was just a ping to make sure everything's working as expected)11:26
ajmitchdholbach: if I get going this weekend I'll have a bunch more11:27
dholbachI'll go through the open bugs later today11:27
ajmitchdholbach: there's 1 unconfirmed assigned to motu-uvf11:27
ajmitchI think that once they're confirmed, motu-uvf should be unassigned, right?11:27
dholbachyeah that'd make sense11:27
tmarblesorry for the n00b question, just what exactly *is* the UVF process? (i.e. file special bugs, etc.)?11:28
=== ajmitch would think that would be internal team agreement
ajmitchtmarble: yep, file a bug, assign it to motu-uvf11:28
=== ajmitch pulls up the wiki page
dholbachhttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/FreezeExceptionProcess#head-9523bc4076ff011324d67cddc97969ec609618d611:28
ajmitchthanks11:28
sistpotyok... if everything is working (as it looks to me), I see no need for further discussion11:29
dholbachtmarble: we're in upstream version freeze now, so a special team checks a upstream changelog diff and a diffstat before approval11:29
dholbachrevu sprint sounds good :)11:29
ajmitchsistpoty: so from that, motu-uvf don't upload on the 2nd ack, that's only for SRU :)11:29
ajmitchI thought another revu sprint was already scheduled?11:30
sistpotyajmitch: yep, right... there is no debdiff involved11:30
sistpotyis it?11:30
dholbachno11:30
TheMusoajmitch: News to me.11:30
ajmitchif not, then let's do it11:30
sistpotyajmitch: since you're chief of qa, please pick a sensible date ;)11:30

TheMusoajmitch: lol11:32
dholbachok... moving to TODOs11:32
sistpotywell... this point is up for everyone...11:32
dholbachsistpoty: is the item a try to update the TODO page?11:32
ajmitchyeah, I've slipped behind on getting more lists, and getting commented lists11:33
dholbachUnmetDeps for sure11:33
dholbachI see one 'transition' coming up, but the documentation for that is not ready yet: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PyDbgBuilds11:33
ajmitchsince I promised a commentable unmet deps list & some others11:33
dholbachso don't mention that yet11:33
ajmitchhow much work in that one?11:33
dholbachdoko will write something to the lists too11:33
TheMusoIs there a way of getting a list of unmet deps for source packages?11:33
ajmitchTheMuso: the basic way is apt-cache -u unmet11:34
ajmitchand then pushing that through a few filters to get a list of source packages11:34
sistpotyhm... how about doing mass bug filing for unmet deps?11:34
ajmitchshould be easy enough if they're verified before filing11:34
sistpotydholbach: didn't you do that with a script for edgy?11:35
dholbachsistpoty: massfiling bugs?11:35
sistpotydholbach: yep11:35
=== ajmitch would like to see that pre-tagging support for filing bugs in malone
dholbachsistpoty: http://daniel.holba.ch/bzr/massfile11:35
sistpotycool11:35
ajmitchwho's going to do it? we don't want 2 or 3 people mass-filing :)11:36
=== sistpoty hides behind his thesis
dholbachI thought about using python-bughelper to determine if bugs are already filed.11:37
ajmitchsistpoty: fine, I'll volunteer :P11:37
dholbachbut I'm not sure it's going to work as it is atm11:37
sistpotyajmitch: great :)11:37
geseron which arch will the checking be done for the bugs?11:37
ajmitchdholbach: it'd be slow & cause plenty of LP load11:37
ajmitchgeser: amd64 or x86, I've got both11:37
ajmitchin a nice squeaky clean chroot11:37
dholbachajmitch: no no :)11:38
geserthere are some unmet deps which only appear on one arch (due to ftbfs)11:38
dholbachwhat else do we have? how are the merges looking?11:38
ajmitchdholbach: no no?11:38
=== TheMuso_ [n=luke@dsl-124-149-101-87.nsw.westnet.com.au] has joined #ubuntu-meeting
ajmitchmerges are looking better11:38
dholbachajmitch: no no "slow" :)11:38
TheMuso_um.... ok guys11:38
sistpotywell... we still have ajmitch's list of RC-bug fixes11:38
ajmitchthere are still a number of serious/grave bugs that debian has fixed11:38
TheMuso_I was cut off. What'd I miss?11:38
ajmitchyeah11:38
sistpotyand lucas list's of FTBFS11:38
ajmitchTheMuso: you've been delegated to fix universe bugs11:39
dholbachTheMuso_: I'll paste you what happened11:39
ajmitchlogs should be on the usual place later11:39
TheMuso_dholbach: Thanks.11:39
dholbachwhat else do we have? pythondbg (once it gets started), unmet deps, merges - what else? :)11:40
sistpotybug fixing, bug fixing, bug fixing ...11:40
dholbachok, sounds good :)11:40
ajmitchso more sync request need to be filed for the RC bugs, I filed about 50 already, I'll get onto doing some more11:40
dholbachahh... how many motus are you mentoring at the moment?11:40
ajmitchI may need UVF exceptions, so be ready :)11:40
ajmitchnone11:40
=== ajmitch is too scary to mentor people
dholbachi don't believe a word :)11:41
dholbachok... if people talk to you, we should be good at pointing them at the todo11:41
TheMuso_ajmitch: You are thorough.11:41
sistpotyok... anything else on the TODO-list? if not let's agree on a date of the next meeting11:41
dholbachmaybe we should also try to tag universe bugs as "packaging bug" or something11:41
ajmitchok, we've got enough to keep the TODO updated?11:41
dholbachso people who are interested can get involved easily in fixing packaging11:42
TheMuso_who's updating it?11:42
sistpotydholbach++11:42
dholbachwhat do you think about having a universe bug sprint to do just that11:42
ajmitchbug triage, or bug fixing?11:42
dholbachfor bughelper bugs we use "bitesize" to indicate an easy bug11:42
TheMuso_I guess that sort of thing can happen after FF?11:42
dholbachtriage, so we can point people to a list of bugs11:42

dholbachmaybe we should have a discussion about bug tags on the mailing list11:42
ajmitchdholbach: sounds like something the bugsquad may be able to do11:42
sistpotythat would be great11:42
dholbachi can see "packaging" and "bitesize" as useful already11:43
dholbachajmitch: we should do that too11:43
dholbachajmitch: we can't shove bugs to "bugsquad"11:43
ajmitchif there are people in the bugsquad who can identify stuff as packaging bugs11:43
dholbachthat doesn't work11:43
ajmitchno, but I'd hope that they be the first line of bug triage :)11:43
dholbachwe should make an effort too11:43
dholbachand explain what our "guidelines" and "ideas" are11:43
ajmitchof course, I'm not saying that we should drop it on them11:43
dholbachok11:44
dholbachany other business?11:44
geserwhat should we do with mozilla-browser in feisty? it's removed from debian and replaced with seamonkey upstream11:44
ajmitchnext meeting time11:44
=== lifeless [n=robertc@ppp245-86.static.internode.on.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting
ajmitchif we keep mozilla-browser in feisty, someone will need to keep it updated11:44
geserfrom where will you update it? upstream abandoned it11:45
sistpotyI'd like to go with debian in this respect, unless someone is volunteering to take care of it11:45
=== ajmitch agrees
dholbachnext meeting time: maybe we should have a MC meeting first and discuss where we want to go with MC meetings vs MOTU meetings11:45
ajmitchdholbach: sounds good, so we need a MC first :)11:46
gesershould we replace mozilla-browser with iceape?11:46
dholbachright-o11:46
dholbachwhat about MC meeting end of next week?11:46
ajmitchsounds good11:46
dholbachthat'd leave some time for the MC to talk to each other etc11:46
ajmitch3 (potential) MC members here to agree on it, so it should work11:47
sistpotyyep... sounds sane11:47
dholbachfriday same time? a bit later?11:47
ajmitchvotes close in 13 hours, will you announce to the world after that?11:47
ajmitchfriday 10:00UTC?11:48
sistpotydholbach: a bit later would be nice for me :P11:48
ajmitchwill sistpoty be awake?11:48
sistpotyhehe11:48
dholbachsistpoty: 2h more? :)11:48
ajmitchnot too much later, please :)11:48
=== TheMuso_ notes that ajmitch set himself a trap.
sistpotywell.. 10utc is fine for me as well... I wanted to get a saner wake-sleep rythm anyways11:48
ajmitchTheMuso_: sistpoty is more in my timezone than dholbach's ;)11:48
dholbachok fri, 23rd 10 utc MC meeting11:49
ajmitchok11:49
=== ajmitch notes that on his calendar
dholbachexcellent11:49
dholbachthanks a lot to everybody for a QUICK meeting11:49
sistpotycool :)11:49
ajmitchthanks!11:49
dholbachwe're getting quite disciplined :)11:49
sistpotythanks11:49
ajmitchit helped that there were so few of us11:49
=== TheMuso_ will endever to have the minutes on the ml in the next hour or so.
ajmitchTheMuso_: thank you very much11:49
=== dholbach writes a mail to ubuntu-bugsquad@ and ubuntu-motu@
TheMuso_np11:50
ajmitchhttp://people.ubuntu.com/~fabbione/irclogs/ubuntu-meeting-current.html should have the full log in 30min or so, or I can stick it somewhere for you11:50

ograon my side there is not much for tech  ... last week was bus feautre freeze week ... this week is herd4 preparation week09:01

ograso all i can say, help testing ! https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/ReportingResults has the new testing procedures09:02
ograto compensate the not implemented fat clients i enabled the kiosk plugin in ltsp ... you are able to build a webkiosk now very easily09:03
ograso we have at least the basic structure for a fat client ... people wanting a full desktop kiosk mode can even install (ed)ubuntu-desktop in the client ...09:04
willvdlcool09:04
willvdlhad a chat with heno09:04
willvdlseems LP is used mainly for test tracking (ooh what's that link again)09:04
ograit explains how to use LP :)09:04
ograwhat i'd like to point out to everyone is: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UES-Sevilla09:05
juliuxevening09:05
juliuxsorry i am late09:05
ograwe will have our next educational conference in may09:05
willvdlogra: yeah :) https://launchpad.net/ubuntu-iso-tests09:05
willvdlv. excited about this09:06
ografrom may 3rd to may 4th we'll try to gather as many educators as possible in sevilla09:06
ograanybody is free to come indeed :)09:06
Specin spain?09:06
ograyep09:06
willvdlyip09:07
willvdlright before UDS09:07
ograit is directly attached to UDS09:07
ograanyway, thats all from my side unless there are questions09:08
willvdlas RichEd would put it, it is a conf aimed at both "above the desktop" and "below"09:08
ograoh, if you test feisty, please test the serveraddon iso as well09:08
willvdlhow's 2nd CD coming along?09:08
willvdlhaven't had a chance to look this week09:08
ograwell, i havent done the seed changes yet09:09
juliuxogra, when is herd4 released?09:09
LaserJockwell, I still have a list of MIR Candidates at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/JordanMantha/EdubuntuMIRCandidates09:09
ograso it's still the same as last week09:09
juliuxor will release09:09
ograjuliux, tomorrow is ETA ... dunno if it will make it09:09
juliuxogra, yes my fault i thought today is already the 15th;909:09
LaserJockI've almost finished a MIR for rasmol (I had a nightmare the other day that iwj found a CVE I didn't find)09:09
ograi'm planning to shuffle the seeds as soon as the Cd is out ... the dailies after that miught break horribly, so be careful09:10
willvdlLaserJock, rasmol?09:10
ograLaserJock, heh09:10
LaserJockmolecule visualization09:10
ograLaserJock, so we share some fears actually :)09:10
LaserJockit's like the first chemistry app I used09:10
LaserJockthe problem I'm seeing is the field get's narrowed down very fast if you take out apps that have a lot of dependencies in Universe and ones that aren't maintained well (either in Debian or upstream)09:11
ograyep09:11
ograbut the field of apps in main we dont ship yet is big as well09:12
ograi'm pretty sure we'll get together something sufficient for feisty ... even if only one or two new apps come from universe09:12
=== philwyett [n=philwyet@bb-87-81-146-45.ukonline.co.uk] has joined #ubuntu-meeting
LaserJockI'd like to get qcad, octave, and stellarium in09:13
ograqucad is a good one09:13
ogra-u09:13
LaserJockdrgeo has a dead upstream otherwise I'd do it09:13
ajmitchis moodle going into main?09:13
LaserJockit'll have to be reworked09:13
LaserJocki.e. not for Feisty that I  know of09:13
ograajmitch, it would have needed to be in before FF09:13
LaserJockmaybe ogra's worked on that09:13
ajmitchogra: a shame09:14
ograyeah09:14
LaserJockI'd *like* to do it for Feisty+109:14
=== ajmitch of course has authtool still stuck in NEW, so it won't get into main
ograi'll package the most recent version for feisty+1 closely working with upstream (who will come to UES i hope)09:14
LaserJockI was going to do it for Feisty but my time has been severly short09:14
ograit can be a ubuntuesque package that doesnt need to go to debian i.e. moodle1.709:15
LaserJockas far as 2nd CD stuff goes09:15
LaserJockI really need feedback from educators09:16
ajmitchogra: I suggest looking at dbconfig-common to replace wwwconfig-common :)09:16
ograthat saves us headdaches with upgrade paths and gives us the possibility to keep the 1.6 package for people who want it ...09:16
LaserJockI have some ideas of packages but I'd rather package what educators already know they need, rather than what I think they need09:16
=== ajmitch won't derail the meeting further
ograajmitch, well, either that or totally without ***config-common09:16
ajmitchif you want to write all the db creation & management scripts yourself09:17
ografor new packages we have all options :)09:17
ogranotMax, but i can ask upstream to maintain them in a way that my postinst doesnt need to be freakys09:17
LaserJockogra: how strict is the "only one app for each task" for Edubuntu?09:18
ograthat was supposed to read "no", sorry notMax09:18
ograLaserJock, depends, what do you propose ?09:18
LaserJockI found several good calculator/function plotter type apps09:18
LaserJockbut they are really for different levels09:19
willvdlLaserJock, I would imagine they would also tie into different backends?09:19
ogrado you think you will find more of such apps ?09:19
LaserJocklybniz is a really basic and usable function plotter that would be good for younger kids09:19
LaserJockbut qalculate is a really cool and powerful calculator (I hate to even call it that)09:19
LaserJockit does unit conversion, plotting, etc.09:19
willvdland the kde one? kplot is it?09:19
ograkig i think09:20
LaserJockyeah, there are a few kde ones09:20
LaserJockqalculate has both gtk and qt versions I believe09:20
willvdlyeah, kig09:20
LaserJockseperate source though, which is weird09:20
willvdlLaserJock, what about Logo/Squeak type thingies?09:20
LaserJockSqueak is non-free09:21
LaserJocknot sure what we have for Logo09:21
ograwe should go with the best still ... if we find more apps to categorize them i.e. in an edubuntu-science-advanced metapackage we should do so ...09:21
ograwe have kturtle09:21
willvdllove kturtle09:21
LaserJockogra: my point was, if I find apps that are sort of the same thing, just designed for different age ranges, is that considered a duplicate?09:21
ograthjats apparently still the best logo app09:21
willvdl kturtle :)09:22
ograLaserJock, not if we can group them into install tasks i would say09:22
ograif its only one single app i'd say we should consider exceptions on a case by case base09:22
LaserJockok, that's sort of what I was thinking09:22
LaserJockso far calculators are the only ones I've run into09:23
willvdlLaserJock, I'm not familiar with the packages but I woudl assume it's OK if one=primary and the other=secondary09:23
ograi'm all for replacing the gnome default calculator for example ...09:23
ograthat leaves us with only one additional app ;)09:23
LaserJockogra: ok, so what is your feeling on me doing some more MIRs?09:24
ograsince i expect at least one of them can work like a standard calculator09:24
LaserJockI asked -devel if FF applied to these 2nd CD apps09:24
LaserJockand they said it was basically up to you09:24
ograLaserJock, itz wont hurt ... if we dont get them in we still have MIRs we only need to update09:24
LaserJockok09:24
ograconcentrate on the ones with the lest deps09:25
LaserJockI'll continue working on them, and hopefully at a much more rapid pace09:25
ogra*least09:25
LaserJockyeah09:25
LaserJockthat's why I started with rasmol09:25
LaserJockrasmol, lybniz, and qcad don't need any deps from Universe09:25
ogragreat09:25
LaserJockoctave is one that has a few09:26
LaserJockbut in my  thread on the forums it comes up a lot09:26
LaserJockas the best free Matlab replacement09:26
ograis drgeo in main ?09:26
LaserJockbut it needs lam, mpich, hdf5, gnuplot, libgd09:26
LaserJockno09:26
ograits an often requested app09:26
LaserJockand it's upstream is dead so I didn't know if we could do a MIR or not09:26
juliuxoctave is the beste math tool i ever used09:27
ogradrgeo ?09:27
ograhmm, that ssad09:27
LaserJockyeah, Burgwork found it for me09:27
willvdloctave upstream dead?09:27
LaserJocknot octave, drgeo09:27
willvdlah09:27
LaserJockdrgeo really looks like a good app09:27
ograyeah, but nothing for now ...09:28
LaserJockanyway09:28
LaserJockI've been digging around09:28
LaserJocktrying to see which ones are worth it, etc.09:28
LaserJockand I'm almost done with rasmol09:28
ogragood09:28
LaserJockbut I should have more up by the end of the week09:28
LaserJockI got some gchemutils work out of the way last night09:29
ograi'll kick kdeedu and gcompris off the CD on friday then ...09:29
ograand have a look around main for apps we could use09:29
LaserJockoh, and I talked with jono about jokosher09:29
LaserJockI don't know if I mentioned it to you ogra09:29
willvdlintersting angle09:30
ograyep you did09:30
LaserJockk09:30
ograinkscape looks like a good one ...09:30
LaserJockyeah09:30
LaserJockI'll go through Main too, I hadn't really thought about that09:30
ograwith the free space we can finally ship mono ...  how about f-spot by default ?09:30
ogra*f-spot09:31
willvdlinteresting, these are not what one "traditionally" lumps into educational tools?09:31
LaserJockwillvdl: it's still a computer :-)09:31
LaserJockI think f-spot would be good09:31
LaserJocktomboy too09:31
LaserJockas students can keep notes09:31
ograwillvdl, well, an app for vector drawing should be a standard09:31
ograwe ship gimp for pixel pushing ... so we can as well grab inkscape :)09:32
willvdlogra, it should be in main as DTP app...09:32
ograinkscape is in main09:32
ograit's just not on any CDs yet09:32
willvdlah. there we go. gotcha09:32
LaserJockis there an easy way to see what's in Main but not on the CDs?09:32
ograthere are a bunch of such apps, i need to dig through that ...09:33
ograthe seeds ...09:33
ograand germinate should be able to help you as well09:33
LaserJockwell, I could grab the Packages.gz from Main and subtract out what's in the seeds09:33
ograright09:33
LaserJockI'm sure Pete could write something ;-)09:34

LaserJockhow's TCM going?09:34
ogra*him09:34
LaserJockI won't I promise?09:34
ograi fixed the final glitches with the package today09:34
LaserJocks/?/:-)/09:34
LaserJocksounds like big improvments since SCP09:35
ograthe vnc part on my side is missing ... but thats a trivial one ...09:35
LaserJockI haven't had a chance to use it as I don't have an LTSP setup09:35
LaserJockbut the screenshots look pretty cool09:35
ograwill be fixed with the next ltsp upload i think09:35
juliuxogra, is there a working TCM in herd4?09:35
ograjuliux, kind of09:35
ograall old features will work ...09:35
ograthere were no regressions ...09:36
juliuxand the new ones also?09:36
ograthe new features still all have bugs09:36
juliuxok09:36
ograbut try them out and file them please :)09:36
ograso we get a list together09:36
juliuxwe will do09:36
willvdlis TCM registered on Malone?09:36
ogragreat :)09:36
juliux we have the whole sunday for testing,)09:36
ograwillvdl, only the package i think ... not sure pete has an LP branch for it09:37
willvdlso no bzr branch, but can catch bugs09:37
ograas long as we're only two devs its fine to play pingpong with the source package09:37
ograbut it should have a branch indeed09:38
ograi'll talk to pete about that09:38
willvdlnot really, maybe as it's released09:38
ograoh, one other thing ... if you test, please give feedback about the new usplash :)09:38
juliuxogra, ok09:39
willvdlgot a snpashot?09:39
ograkwwii made us aa new one :)09:39
willvdlsnapshot rather?09:39
ogranot of a running one, but i can upload the pic, one moment09:39
willvdlcoool09:40
LaserJockis the other artwork new yet?09:41
ograhttp://people.ubuntu.com/~ogra/usplash_1024_768.png09:41
ogranope, not yet09:41
LaserJockk, I just wondered09:41
LaserJockhmm, I like the usplash09:42
juliuxnice usplash09:42
ograken will develop an ubuntu theme weher we will just apply color changes as i understoofd his plan09:42
LaserJockthe lettering looks a little too "fuzzy" for me but I love the logo09:42
ograi'm currently hacking on svg support for ldm ...09:42
LaserJockdoh09:42
ograLaserJock, you need to scale it right :)09:42
willvdlLaserJock, zoom in09:43
LaserJockI just needed to get it at 100%, my browser was shrinking it09:43
willvdlas you mentioned it, I thought the same thing :)09:43
LaserJockok, yeah, I really like it09:43
willvdlsnap09:43
ograwe have a nice redish progressbar for that ...09:43
willvdlsame style?09:43
ograsame style as ubuntu09:44
ograjust a different color09:44
willvdlI'm not mad about the 6.10 progress bar09:44
ogratest the herd4 liveCD :P09:44
ograthere you can see it in action09:44
willvdlogra, I wish. bandwidth is a commodity here :)09:44
LaserJockwillvdl: I didn't like it either09:45
willvdlfortunately I sit next to marilize so I can steal CDs :)09:45
ograwillvdl, you should get a cdimage mirror to the hbd office ...09:45
ograrsyncs are cheaper than downnloads09:45
willvdlogra, there is one but that's another story. perhaps not in here :)09:45
ograok :)09:45
willvdlI guess we're in artwork?09:46
ograwell, i guess that was artwork09:46
ograunless someone else has anything to show :)09:46
ograi'll talk to colin after herd4 if we can get the usplash pic into the CD bootscreen as well09:47
willvdlis that guy on https://wiki.edubuntu.org/EdubuntuArtwork/Palette modelled on Pete? :)09:47
ograthat urgently needs an update09:47
ograthats from pete and his wife afaik09:48
willvdllooks a bit like him. if you squint jsut right09:48
willvdlogra, I presume the motd thingy will wait a bit?09:48
ograi'll look into it ... might be only a trivial confiog switch in gdm09:49
ograif not it has to wait, yes09:49
ograreally depends how big that change might be09:49
willvdlthe icons that get shipped, how are they genrally licensed?09:50
ograi think they are gpl ...09:50
ogranot the best for icons09:50
ogralet me look it up ... one sec09:51
ograthe debian package says GPL09:51
willvdlso if I reuse on the wiki and the wiki is CC-BY-SA...09:52
ograF.A.Q:09:53
ograQ: What's Gartoon License?09:53
ograA: Starting 0.5 Gartoon lincensed under GPL (read GPL.txt)09:53
ograaha09:53
willvdlI should then just make a reference/attribution where I reuse09:54
=== LaserJock loves licensing :-) *cough*
willvdle.g. https://wiki.edubuntu.org/Edubuntu?action=show09:54
willvdlanyhoo, above link is not "live" yet but is the culmination of work I've done trying to cleanup and organise our wiki pages09:56
willvdlI think I need a "misc" section though09:56
LaserJockI think nixternal is getting the edubuntu-docs MIR written up09:57
ograyippie09:57
LaserJockwe have a few bugs to work out in the yelp frontpage09:58
willvdlnow we jsut need to get the edubuntu-docs written up :)09:58
LaserJockbut mdke said he'll work on that09:58
ograi thought there is a lot09:58
LaserJockwe dep on ubuntu-docs09:58
willvdljust kidding09:58
ograwe just need them imported into the package09:58
LaserJockso people will get all the Ubuntu documentation09:58
willvdlLaserJock, I can't wait to see the end result cause then I reckon I'll finally get my head around the technicalities of TBH09:59
LaserJockso the "bug" we need to fix is to remove About Ubuntu09:59
LaserJockwell, it'll be interesting09:59
LaserJockbut at least better than what we've had in the past10:00
willvdlone option is to make the "About" page generic to all derivitives10:00
LaserJockI think Feisty+1 will be more consistent10:00
willvdlwhich could possibly make sense... less duplication on common features10:01
nixternalLaserJock: I am looking at the MIR now, sorry but I have been so bogged down this week10:02
nixternalAvailability:  Not yet?10:02
LaserJockthe package *is* in Universe10:02
LaserJockjust not the final form10:02
ograogra@edubuntu:~/packages/gartoon-0.5$ apt-cache madison edubuntu-docs10:03
ograedubuntu-docs |      0.4-1 | http://de.archive.ubuntu.com feisty/universe Packages10:03
ograedubuntu-docs |      0.4-1 | http://archive.ubuntu.com feisty/universe Sources10:03
ograif you need any repackaging etc, ping me10:03
LaserJockI had a look at nixternal's packaging10:03
ogracurrently it installs two html files without any integration ...10:03
LaserJockbuilt and installed it too10:03
ograi'm fine with replacing whats there10:04
LaserJockit seems good, it's based off of the ubuntu-docs source package10:04
ograLaserJock, if ayou are fine with the package feel free to upload10:04
LaserJocknixternal: we should check the firefox page though10:04
LaserJockogra: k10:04
ograthe firefox page is in edubuntu-artwork10:04
ograplease check for other clashes as well10:04
nixternalLaserJock: yes, I will work on that unless you want to rock it out quickly10:05
=== Seveas [n=seveas@ubuntu/member/seveas] has joined #ubuntu-meeting
nixternalLaserJock: whoa whoa10:05
LaserJocknixternal: what?10:05
nixternalLaserJock: the Firefox page is packaged with edubuntu-artwork10:05
nixternalso you need to fix it there, unless it gets removed from there and incorporated into the edubuntu-docs package, which of course only makes sense10:06
ograits the only doc we have, it didnt really justify a whole package ...10:06
LaserJocknah, -artwork is fine for now10:06
LaserJockI don't want to "rock the boat" too much at this point10:06
ograwell, it should move eventually ...10:06
ograbut that must not be now if it generates extra work10:07
=== anibal [n=anibal@debian/developer/anibal] has joined #ubuntu-meeting
LaserJockanyway, we can talk details later10:07
ograreally up to you guys ... i'll do what the docteam says ;)10:07
LaserJockwe need a MIR and get it going10:07
ograright10:07
LaserJockwe can fix bugs a bit later10:07
ograjust wipe the existing package with something with a higher version10:08
nixternalLaserJock / ogra: we can always start out feisty+1 with the new implementation to save issues?10:08
ograas long as we keep a working upgrade path we can do everything ;)10:08
nixternalhttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/MainInclusionReportEdubuntuDocs <- LaserJock10:08
nixternaloh shoot, I forgot that we were in a meeting right now :) I just connected from school10:08
nixternalhaha, I thought we were in #*-motu10:09
ograwell, i dont think there is much left oin the plate for the meeting10:09
nixternalLaserJock: that MIR is rough, but started :)10:09
LaserJocknixternal: I can tweak it when you're done :-)10:09
nixternalI am done for the time being if you want to tweak it a little10:10
ograso we could as well end it here and you can go on with packaging in #edubuntu :)10:10
nixternalthat is the first time I have done one, so I am expecting it to be horrible10:10
ograwell, its our own package so there wont be any external CVEs or something ...10:11
nixternaltrue10:11
ograand its only docs10:11
nixternalya, how dangerous can they be :)10:11
ograi dont expect problems with the MIR10:11
nixternaloh wait, I have been working on them, so be careful ;p10:11
ograujnless iwj complains about the format ...10:11
nixternalsure, whatever that means10:12
=== nixternal whips out a perl script to decypher
ogramake sure to not use the plain template ... but put some formulation work in etc10:12
ograhe wants to see some effort from a MIR writer10:12
nixternalahh10:12
ograso you show your intrest in the package10:12
ogra(thats how he said it )10:13
nixternalvery well put I must say10:13
nixternalgotta sell it!10:13
ograheh10:13
willvdlstelis, are you in here?10:14
stelisYes10:14
willvdlcan you paste the link to the docs you're working on in here?10:14
willvdlI lost it in my logs10:14
stelishttp://www.elsn.org/downloads/edubuntu/drafts/edubuntu-quickstart.html10:14
willvdlthanks. sorry for the noise folks but I want to start integrating more from other peoples docs10:15
nixternalstelis: you think that your docs could be incorporated into the current Edubuntu Handbook?10:15
nixternalwillvdl: I take it you are on it already :)10:15
willvdlnixternal, time :)10:15
nixternalwoohoo, one less thing for me to worry over right now10:16
willvdlbut if things don't go according to pplan then I will have next week relatively free10:16
stelisI'm not actually sure where the current HB is10:16
ograinstead of https://wiki.edubuntu.com/EdubuntuLtsConfParams you should rather point to /opt/ltsp/i386/usr/share/doc/ltsp-client/examples/lts-parameters.txt.gz that will have always the recent supported list10:16
ograstelis, ^^10:16
stelisI pulled a SVN before Xmas10:16
willvdlhttps://wiki.edubuntu.org/Edubuntu/Documentation/Handbook10:16
stelisogra: Thanks10:16
nixternalstelis: the docs are stored at https://docteam.ubuntu.com/repos/trunk10:17
ograapart from that this is a really beautiful doc, kudos10:17
stelisThanks10:17
nixternalmore info can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DocumentationTeam/Repository10:17
stelisFWIW, the idea was to have a stopgap until there is a HB10:17
nixternalstelis: yes, it is an awesome doc, and just what we needed! As it stands, this makes the handbook almost complete, then you are my new HERO!10:17
nixternalhell, all the work you put into it, you are my hero :)10:18
stelisI guess it depends how comprehensive you want your HB to be10:18
willvdlstelis, as comprehensive as possible10:19
nixternalstelis: we shall leave that up to willvdl, I am just a docmonkey10:19
willvdlas as many audience as possible.10:19
willvdlv. ambitious10:19
stelisThis Quickstart is enough to get somebody going10:19

stelisBananas are good :)10:19
willvdlnixternal, as long as you can fix my broken links I'm happy10:19
nixternalwillvdl: what broken links?10:19
willvdlyou'll see10:20
nixternallol10:20
willvdlmy docbook is still rusty and frayed10:20
nixternalahh10:20
willvdlstelis, I wanted to this week but hopefully next week I can dedicate hours to integrating your stuff10:20
stelisOK.10:21
willvdlnow that I've got the wiki under wraps10:21
stelisFWIW, this works as a standalone10:21
stelisSo you could just add screenshots10:21
stelisI'm conscious that time is short10:22
stelisBut feel free to use it as you need10:23
stelisThere's some other pieces in the same directory10:23
willvdlstelis, thanks to you we now have options10:23
stelisI don't have lots of time myself10:23
=== raphink [n=raphink@ubuntu/member/raphink] has joined #ubuntu-meeting
willvdlI will, hopefully, up until march10:24
stelisBut I could write up some Release Notes or a few sections of this and that10:24
=== ogra looks up "lots of time" in his dictionary
willvdlnixternal, who normally does our finals for the release notes?10:25
nixternalwillvdl: dunno, but I can probably work something out for you since I do the Kubuntu ones10:25
willvdlI got very confused with the old releases: there where wiki versions, docbook ones, release notes, install notes, release announcements...10:26
willvdlogra, clearly you have enough time to do that :)10:27
ogra:P10:27
