| sabdfl | mooey: also, on the dapper bugs listing | 12:46 |
| sabdfl | bugs.lp.n/ubuntu/dapper iirc | 12:47 |
| mooey | thanks sabdfl, crimsun | 12:49 |
| mooey | in /ubuntu/dapper is the first place i looked, but i can't find it listed there | 12:49 |
| mooey | but it has only been nominated for dapper | 12:49 |
| mooey | not accepted? so i guess thats correct | 12:49 |
| mooey | in which case my question is: where are bugs that are nominated for a release tracked in launchpad? | 12:50 |

| daviey | good | 01:07 |
| lifeless | whats up? | 01:07 |
| daviey | right, i have made a branch, it's linked with a project | 01:07 |
| daviey | but i cant upload | 01:08 |

| daviey | lifeless, when i "bzr commit" nano appears | 01:17 |
| lifeless | daviey: its asking for a commit message | 01:17 |
| lifeless | daviey: you should type in a message, save the file, and exit. | 01:17 |
| daviey | oh, i'll do that | 01:17 |
| daviey | okay, they are commited | 01:20 |
| daviey | shouldn't bzr push know where to upload it? | 01:22 |
| jamesh | daviey: if you've previously pushed the branch, it will remember that | 01:23 |
| jamesh | if not, no. | 01:23 |
| daviey | ahh | 01:23 |
| jamesh | so you'd need to run "bzr push sftp://bazaar.launchpad.net/~user/product/branch | 01:25 |
| jamesh | (whatever name you want to give the branch) | 01:25 |
| daviey | we are cooking on gas! | 01:26 |
| daviey | 1 revision made.... but why if i sftp into the launchpad server, does it not show up? | 01:27 |
| jamesh | what do you mean? | 01:27 |
| jamesh | note that only the .bzr/ directory is uploaded via SFTP | 01:28 |
| daviey | if i, nautilus sftp://davewalker@bazaar.launchpad.net/~XXX then i can see the branch folders - but not the stuff i just pushed | 01:28 |
| jamesh | daviey: is there a .bzr/ directory in the branch's directory? | 01:29 |
| jamesh | it won't show on a normal "ls", since it is hidden | 01:29 |
| jamesh | (as are all dot files) | 01:29 |
| daviey | local or remote? | 01:29 |
| === carlesoriol [n=carles@252.Red-80-37-184.staticIP.rima-tde.net] has joined #launchpad | ||
| jamesh | remote | 01:29 |
| daviey | there is a bzr | 01:29 |
| spiv | daviey: show hidden files | 01:29 |
| spiv | daviey: (Ctrl-H in nautilus) | 01:30 |
| daviey | done that, but only shows a .bzr folder | 01:30 |
| spiv | daviey: right, that's the branch. | 01:30 |
| daviey | oh, i thought it might show HEAD in the folder | 01:30 |
| jamesh | daviey: that is all that people need to pull your branch | 01:30 |
| spiv | You can do things like "bzr info" on that URL. | 01:31 |
| spiv | And branch from it. | 01:31 |
| spiv | But it's not a checkout. | 01:31 |
| daviey | doesn't svn just seem simpler? | 01:31 |
| jamesh | daviey: Launchpad has already scanned the branch here: https://code.beta.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-mythtv/mythbuntu/devel | 01:32 |
| daviey | How did you know what project it was? | 01:32 |
| jamesh | daviey: I looked at https://code.launchpad.net/~davewalker and picked the branch with the most recent commit | 01:33 |
| daviey | jamesh, i can't use 'beta' | 01:33 |
| daviey | cheeky chap | 01:33 |
| jamesh | daviey: remove the ".beta" bit | 01:33 |
| daviey | done :P | 01:33 |
| jamesh | daviey: if you want to look at the beta testers, try and join https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-beta-testers | 01:34 |
| jamesh | that is, "look at the beta site" | 01:34 |
| jamesh | you'll get an email asking you to agree not to post screenshots, and then get added to the team | 01:34 |
| spiv | daviey: SVN is the same, if you look at the repository it doesn't hold a working tree of HEAD | 01:34 |
| daviey | jamesh, i've applied - thanks | 01:35 |
| spiv | daviey: instead what usually happens is there's a webserver that knows to dynamically show the files/directories of a checkout if you access it with a non-SVN client. | 01:35 |
| spiv | daviey: Or there's a dedicated "ViewSVN" site users go to | 01:35 |
| daviey | spiv, i see | 01:35 |
| spiv | daviey: we have a system to do this for bazaar.launchpad.net in testing at the moment. | 01:36 |
| jamesh | we just need to make it suck less | 01:36 |
| daviey | thats great! | 01:36 |
| spiv | And jamesh is the lucky person that's been making it suck less so far :) | 01:37 |

| ddaa | jml: how does this page look to you? https://code.beta.launchpad.net/~bzr/bzr/trunk | 11:34 |
| jml | ddaa: alright. the fonts are too small :) | 11:35 |
| ddaa | mh right... | 11:35 |
| jml | ddaa: and there should be a bigger gap between each revision | 11:35 |
| ddaa | Actuall I think the spacing is right | 11:35 |
| ddaa | but the use of h3 makes revision titles hard to read | 11:35 |
| ddaa | seems to me that hN tags should be only use for structural page elements | 11:36 |
| ddaa | I am not sure how to change the layout practically, but I'd like the revision lines to be in text color | 11:36 |
| jml | ddaa: a bit earlier today, I was thinking of using the same styles as the bug comments | 11:37 |
| jml | (https://bugs.beta.launchpad.net/launchpad-bazaar/+bug/48064 for a random example) | 11:37 |
| jml | but that might make the page too long | 11:38 |

| jml | ddaa: I'll discuss options with mpt tomorrow. | 11:38 |
| ddaa | I agree with both points you're making :) | 11:38 |

| flacoste | me | 03:05 |
| salgado | me | 03:05 |
| BjornT | == Next meeting == | 03:07 |
| BjornT | next meeting will 14th march, 1400 UTC, any objections? | 03:07 |
| salgado | no | 03:08 |
| flacoste | fine | 03:08 |
| BjornT | ok | 03:08 |
| BjornT | == Queue status == | 03:08 |
| BjornT | there are currently 15 open reviews, which is two more than on Monday. | 03:08 |
| BjornT | jamesh, SteveA, and salgado have branches that are more than 10 days old | 03:09 |
| flacoste | my queue is empty | 03:09 |
| BjornT | 5 branches ar slightly above the 2-day limit, the rest are ok. | 03:09 |
| flacoste | so feel free to offload some of them on me | 03:09 |
| salgado | yeah, but I need to point that the one on my queue was assigned to me when it was 6 or 7 days old already | 03:09 |
| salgado | (I'll finish it today, though) | 03:10 |
| flacoste | last week assignments were kind of late indeed | 03:10 |
| BjornT | salgado: oh, right. i think that branch was discussed at the last meeting, ddaa change the name of the branch, but not the date, so it's incorrect. | 03:10 |
| BjornT | flacoste: my queue is quite long. how about taking the two small ones from ddaa? | 03:11 |
| flacoste | no problem | 03:11 |
| ddaa_ | thanks | 03:12 |
| BjornT | thanks flacoste | 03:12 |
| BjornT | salgado: has jamesh reviewed your ui-fixes branch yet? | 03:13 |
| salgado | BjornT, yep | 03:13 |
| BjornT | cool. so the queue looks quite good then, actually. | 03:14 |
| BjornT | == Other business == | 03:14 |
| BjornT | any other business? | 03:14 |
| flacoste | not from me | 03:15 |
| salgado | yes, this should be the eu/americas reviewers meeting instead of the "eu/us" one. kthxbye | 03:15 |
| flacoste | +1 | 03:16 |
| flacoste | there is nobody from the us here | 03:16 |
| BjornT | us, americas, it's all the same to me :) but ok. | 03:17 |
| BjornT | ok, meeting ended. thanks for coming. | 03:18 |
| salgado | thanks BjornT | 03:18 |
| flacoste | thanks BjornT | 03:19 |

| ddaa | ok | 06:06 |
| mrevell | Moving onto "Annoyance of the week" | 06:06 |
| mrevell | Each week, I'd like to gather input on what has frustrated you recently about Launchpad. | 06:06 |
| mrevell | I'll then take it to the Launchpad developers meeting, which happens each Thursday. | 06:07 |
| heno | the beta is veeeery slow ... | 06:07 |
| mrevell | So, if you'd like to report something that has annoyed or frustrated you about Launchpad, please tell us now. | 06:07 |
| heno | (my annoyance of the week) | 06:07 |
| mrevell | heno: Thanks. | 06:07 |
| mthaddon | heno: slower than the non-beta? | 06:08 |
| heno | mthaddon: yes, very | 06:08 |
| heno | it can take 10 seconds for a random bug page to load | 06:08 |
| mthaddon | I haven't played much with the non-beta recently, so can't comment, but that's interesting... | 06:08 |
| heno | non-beta might be 1-2 secs | 06:08 |
| mrevell | I haven't noticed beta be that slow. | 06:08 |
| === mwh_ is now known as mwh | ||
| Kuhrscher | the current status of the upstream translations import for Feisty annoyed me | 06:09 |
| heno | I'm actually surprised that the LP devs are not feeling this pain too | 06:09 |
| heno | it's a common topic in the distro meetings | 06:09 |
| ddaa | it actually seems to me that it got less slow recently... but maybe I just got used to it. | 06:09 |
| === Mez [n=Mez@ubuntu/member/mez] has joined #launchpad | ||
| heno | (see the logs from last week :) ) | 06:10 |
| mrevell | Are other people here noticing extreme slowness from beta? | 06:10 |
| salgado | today we seem to be experiencing some problems with our database server, which means the slowness won't be limited to beta | 06:10 |
| heno | I'll check with SteveA tomorrow at the meeting how his profiling is going | 06:10 |
| mrevell | Kuhrscher: Thanks, we've got a question about that coming up later. | 06:10 |
| mrevell | heno: Thanks. | 06:10 |
| thumper | I do, but I just thought it may have been that I'm in NZ :) | 06:11 |
| mrevell | Okay, any other points of annoyance that you'd like to raise? | 06:11 |
| heno | if we set up some instructions for how to do those, I'm sure others would help | 06:11 |
| salgado | (and I have to admit we're having quite a few timeouts today, probably because of that issue) | 06:11 |
| mrevell | heno: Set up profiling? | 06:11 |
| heno | the ooopses today are a separate issue I think | 06:11 |
| === jenda waves | ||
| heno | mrevell: instructions on how to use firebug sensibly and collect logs, or whatever it does | 06:12 |
| jenda | guys - I know it's slightly OT, but any idea what's up with the CC elections? | 06:12 |
| salgado | heno, yes, it is. that's what I said | 06:12 |
| === jenda doesn't know where to ask | ||
| mrevell | heno: Right, thanks, noted. | 06:12 |
| mrevell | jenda: We're having a Launchpad users' meeting atm, you're welcome to join in. | 06:12 |
| jenda | ah | 06:13 |
| jenda | sorry to barge in like that ;) | 06:13 |

| mrevell | jenda: No worries :) | 06:13 |
| mrevell | User questions | 06:13 |
| mrevell | Throughout the week, Launchpad users have added their questions to the meeting agenda. | 06:14 |
| mrevell | Here's the first. | 06:14 |
| === jelmer [n=jelmer@a62-251-123-16.adsl.xs4all.nl] has joined #launchpad | ||
| mrevell | It will be GREAT to have upstream GNOME distribution translation ability!Will we benefit this in a near future? Vladimer Sichinava GNOME/Ubuntu translator. | 06:14 |
| mrevell | danilos: Is that something you can answer? | 06:14 |
| mrevell | And is Vladimer here today? | 06:15 |
| === alex_muntada [n=alexm@gnu/translator/alex-muntada] has joined #launchpad | ||
| mrevell | Okay, I'll seek an answer and give it in the next user meeting. | 06:15 |
| danilos | mrevell: I'd like to provide that as well since I am also a GTP spokesperson and Serbian GNOME team coordinator, but it depends on other priorities (it's definitely something we want to have, but we can't set a date on it) | 06:15 |
| mrevell | danilos: Ah, thanks. | 06:16 |
| mrevell | danilos: It appears Vladimer isn't in the meeting, so hopefully he'll see the post-meeting report. | 06:16 |
| mrevell | Moving onto the next question. | 06:16 |
| mrevell | I'm not happy about the fact that there has never been a fixed date for Ubuntu translation opening. Although I respect Rosetta developers, I feel bad about us having less than a month to prepare the Feisty translations. We (the Czech team) have already found a number of regressions from Edgy and it will be difficult to fix all those bugs and make Ubuntu better translated in time. I often have a feeling that although Ubu | 06:16 |
| mrevell | ntu prides itself with our translations, we don't get much credit and respect within the Launchpad paid developers/Canonical. Can this issue be better resolved in the future? -- MartinBhm | 06:16 |
| mrevell | mhb: That's your question, I believe. | 06:17 |
| === mhb is Martin Bhm | ||
| mhb | yes, it is | 06:17 |
| mrevell | mhb: The Launchpad team and Canonical do greatly value the Ubuntu translators. I believe that the process for opening translations for Feisty+1 will be smoother. | 06:18 |
| === carlos is also a launchpad developer and is around (sorry, I was distracted...) | ||
| heno | Perhaps we should do an informal impact study on this kind of thing: what is more disruptive having Launchpad down for a day or delaying translation import until it's almost too late? This issue will likely be fixes properly at some point, but similar dilemmas could come up later | 06:19 |
| mhb | mrevell: I think there was the same belief for feisty as the edgy opening was also relatively late | 06:19 |
| mrevell | mhb: You say don't feel the Launchpad team gives translators much credit or respect. How could we improve that impression? | 06:19 |
| carlos | mhb: the idea is to have a fixed date for open it, but Edgy and Feisty had some technical problems involved | 06:19 |
| carlos | that delayed the process much more than expected | 06:19 |
| Kuhrscher | I hope it would also be possible to lock the translation until all imports are done. | 06:19 |
| carlos | Kuhrscher: there is already a bug to do that, yes | 06:20 |
| Kuhrscher | carlos: nice to hear | 06:20 |
| mhb | mrevell: we can't make any changes to the timetable, so creating one for the opening &really make it happen at the fixed date would be great | 06:20 |
| === sinzui is now known as sinzui_lunch | ||
| mhb | mrevell: we can't say "there has been so little time, give us more" | 06:20 |
| mhb | mrevell: and I think other teams should not have that privilege either | 06:21 |
| mrevell | mhb: I'm sorry that the Feisty translations opening date has been held up, giving you little time. | 06:21 |
| Kuhrscher | Could we introduce the next release some time to check the imports for bugs _before_ the translation is opened? | 06:22 |
| carlos | Kuhrscher: it was not a 'bug' problem | 06:22 |
| carlos | but a performance problem | 06:22 |
| mrevell | mhb: We do want to keep to the dates for opening translations and I'm sure that, having found out more about what can go wrong, Feisty+1 will be much improved. | 06:23 |
| Kuhrscher | carlos: The last two releases there had been a lot of failed imports... | 06:23 |
| carlos | mhb: Well, that's a problem, yes. But we keep releasing translations updates even after final release. It's not the solution to the problem, of course, but It mitigates a bit the problem of being late or the lack of time before final release | 06:23 |
| Kuhrscher | or wrong templates... | 06:23 |
| mhb | carlos: AFAIK, the updates were delayed a lot, too | 06:23 |
| mrevell | mhb: I'm not sure what you mean about teams having priveleges to ask for extra time. | 06:24 |
| danilos | Kuhrscher: it might also be due to incompatible change in GNU gettext msgfmt (a lot of failed imports I see is due to this) | 06:24 |
| mhb | mrevell: I meant that the Rosetta folks can say that, because they don't have a fixed date for the opening | 06:24 |
| carlos | Kuhrscher: most of the time is a bug in the package not in the import process itself | 06:24 |
| danilos | Kuhrscher: (msgfmt was changed to require '%d' in all plural form messages with 0.15, and earlier versions allowed eg. singular form not to have it) | 06:24 |
| mhb | mrevell: can you or someone else make sure that the "Rosetta opening" date will be set in the Feisty+1 release schedule? | 06:25 |
| mhb | mrevell: and that the Rosetta folks start testing early enough so that they can open the translation up at that date? | 06:25 |
| Kuhrscher | Sure, but it would be best to start the translation process only if all those problems are identified and fixed. | 06:25 |
| carlos | mhb: the updates should be more or less done monthly, that's why we have daily snapshots. I think there are some delays from time to time, but I know Martin tries to do one update each month first Monday of each month | 06:26 |
| mhb | carlos: as far as I remember there were close to zero Edgy translations updates before January (that's what some of the translator said, I am not sure about this) | 06:27 |
| mhb | carlos: having a fixed date early enough and really open translations at that date matters more for me, though | 06:28 |
| carlos | mhb: I don't think it was so late.. let me check... | 06:29 |
| mrevell | mhb: As I understand, the improvements we've made to Launchpad will mean that we can open Feisty+1 translations as soon as Feisty+1 has created in Launchpad. That should mean we can give a date for translations opening and that it will give you much more time. | 06:30 |
| carlos | mhb: For the Spanish one, there were updates almost every month since release... | 06:30 |
| carlos | https://beta.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/language-pack-es | 06:30 |
| carlos | https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/language-pack-es | 06:30 |
| mhb | https://beta.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/language-pack-cs/ | 06:31 |
| carlos | mrevell: well, we still need to implement some changes to be able to do that without turning launchpad off | 06:31 |
| Kuhrscher | Please start this translating period after the UpstreamVersionFreeze. | 06:31 |
| carlos | mrevell: but the idea is that one | 06:31 |
| mrevell | carlos: Thanks for the clarification. | 06:32 |
| Kuhrscher | Just to avoid interference with the upstream translators... | 06:32 |
| mhb | carlos: can you do it fast enough then? | 06:32 |
| mhb | carlos: and really set the date in the Feisty+1ReleaseSchedule and open it then? | 06:32 |
| mhb | with more than a month for us? | 06:32 |
| ddaa | Shutting down launchpad for a day is not really an option, since we want to attract upstreams that may not be interested in translations | 06:33 |
| carlos | mhb: not really fast enough, but without turning launchpad down | 06:33 |
| ddaa | but may be interested in bzr, or the bug tracking system | 06:33 |
| carlos | which is the main problem until now, how to schedule that | 06:33 |
| carlos | to avoid problems like what ddaa is pointing | 06:33 |
| mhb | carlos: that's not much of a assurance for us | 06:33 |
| mhb | carlos: what do you mean by fast enough? | 06:34 |
| mhb | fixed dates is what would help a lot | 06:34 |
| carlos | mhb: what's your ideal date to do the opening? | 06:34 |
| heno | ddaa: right, but not delivering translation imports several times in a row will also leave a bad track record, which will also reach the ears of those upstreams | 06:34 |
| danilos | mhb: with 'not fast enough' carlos was thinking that the process will take a while (like a week when you'll be unable to do any translations), but we won't have to shut launchpad down completely | 06:34 |
| heno | It will stay on mailing list and IRC logs and can be googled forever :) | 06:35 |
| carlos | anyway, as Kuhrscher points, I don't think we should open translations 6 months before release... | 06:35 |
| carlos | so it should not be a problem | 06:35 |
| heno | one day of downtime may not be a bad alternative | 06:35 |
| carlos | heno: believe me, it is | 06:35 |
| mhb | carlos: perhaps after the DebianImportFreeze | 06:35 |
| danilos | also, you guys should consider one more problem with opening translations too early: you'll have to repeat work you do in feisty and feisty+1 unless we do the copying later on as well (we've designed it so we can do it, but I don't think we've done it so far) | 06:36 |
| ddaa | but presumably, disabling just translations for one week, would be less of a problem | 06:36 |
| ddaa | the issue is separation of concerns, people who do not care about the translation should not see their version control system server go offline because of them. | 06:36 |
| carlos | mhb: UBuntu's wiki page is being slow here | 06:36 |
| carlos | mhb: so I cannot check the schedule... | 06:37 |
| danilos | mhb: I am at least not that well into Ubuntu schedule and timeline, so it'd help if you gave exact dates, relative dates inside 6-month cycle or point me to a page where I can read on them :) | 06:37 |
| carlos | for the case of Feisty, when is that? | 06:37 |
| mhb | December 21st | 06:37 |
| carlos | that's 4 months before release, isn't it? | 06:38 |
| === lbm [n=lbm@0x555373ab.adsl.cybercity.dk] has joined #launchpad | ||
| mhb | carlos: well, yes | 06:38 |
| mhb | carlos: the second important date for Ubuntu release cycle is 2 months after that | 06:38 |
| carlos | it would interfere with GNOME upstream translations, but that's doable | 06:38 |
| carlos | that gives us two months after opening a distro release so the process even being slow will be done at that time | 06:39 |
| mhb | carlos: it should happen some time before the FeatureFreeze, because that's relatively late in the process | 06:40 |
| carlos | as we will be 'hidding' the imports until it's done, we could start the opening at any time we want once Launchpad knows about that new distro release | 06:40 |
| carlos | mhb: I'm talking about DebianImportFreeze | 06:40 |
| === kiko-fud is now known as kiko | ||
| carlos | the fact that we delay it until FeatureFreeze or not it up to you (the translators) | 06:41 |
| carlos | s/it up/is up/ | 06:41 |
| === Gwaihir [n=Gwaihir@ubuntu/member/gwaihir] has joined #launchpad | ||
| mhb | carlos: I'm for opening it up as soon as possible | 06:41 |
| carlos | is that compromise enough? | 06:41 |
| danilos | carlos: do we plan to copy distrorelease to distrorelease+1 contributions even after distrorelease+1 is opened? if we don't, translators will have to do a lot of duplicate work if we open it too soon | 06:42 |
| mhb | carlos: sure, 3-4 months is enough time, I believe ... but please write that date in the Feisty+1ReleaseSchedule so we can count on it | 06:42 |
| danilos | mhb: ^^^ (iow, we want to schedule such copying as well) | 06:42 |
| carlos | danilos: if we are able to do the opening without turning launchpad offline, that's doable too | 06:42 |
| danilos | carlos: I know it's doable, but if we've got a date for one thing, we need a date for another as well | 06:43 |
| carlos | danilos: well, I would test how much time it would take and maybe, schedule it to be done once per month or something like that | 06:44 |
| carlos | but nothing we could schedule right now | 06:44 |
| carlos | the opening is something we could put in the schedule as a way to get the compromise of getting it done then | 06:44 |
| mhb | I guess that's answered, then. | 06:45 |
| mrevell | mhb: Thanks for your question. | 06:45 |
| mrevell | mhb: If you'd like to discuss it further, don't forget we have the launchpad-users mailing list. | 06:45 |
| mhb | and thank you for the answers | 06:45 |
| mrevell | Next questions also relates to Rosetta and is from mhb. We're running out of time, though, so please lets make the answers as quick as possible. | 06:45 |
| mrevell | One of the other things that make me believe Ubuntu translators and translations are being rather neglected is the fact that Launchpad/Rosetta has failed to implement a simple search tool for the translations. Without it Rosetta seems to be rather clumsy for fixing bugs and typos. As far as I know, the Launchpad/Rosetta developers are aware of this but almost since day 0 but still they haven't managed to implement it. T | 06:46 |
| mrevell | hey often claim it is very hard to implement but I think the lack of pressure from the community is another factor. I hope we can raise our voices louder so that even the paid developers know we really need it sooner than for a feisty+2 or even later. A fixed date for it would be nice, as it seems there are little fixed dates in the development process. -- MartinBhm | 06:46 |
| mrevell | So, the question is: When can we have searchable translations in Launchpad? | 06:46 |
| carlos | danilos: that one is for you ;-) | 06:46 |
| kiko | mrevell, you can search using google, perhaps. | 06:46 |
| kiko | we now allow google to index our translation pages | 06:47 |
| carlos | mhb: just as a brief answer, google has been indexing us since a January | 06:47 |
| carlos | so you should be able to use that as a workaround (that's why we did that change) | 06:47 |
| === BjornT [n=bjorn@clt-84-32-240-183.dtiltas.lt] has joined #launchpad | ||
| mrevell | mhb: Do you want to try with Google and report to launchpad-users how you get on? | 06:47 |
| === frafu [n=frafu@vodsl-9814.vo.lu] has joined #launchpad | ||
| danilos | another point is that we've got a huge database (which is what makes text search hard), and we've been working on improving it, so we should have something in the near future (though, more DB changes will be required) | 06:47 |
| mrevell | carlos, kiko, danilos: Thanks for the suggestions and for giving an insight into why we don't yet have searchable translations. | 06:48 |
| mrevell | The next question is also related to searching, but searching of bugs: | 06:48 |
| mrevell | Are there any plans for improving search facilities in Launchpad? It always strikes me how difficult it is to find something using only keyword search compared to Bugzilla's "Advanced Query" panel. -- DavorCubranic | 06:48 |
| mrevell | Davor, are you here? | 06:49 |
| === carlos needs to leave now. Thanks for your questions and for coming | ||
| mrevell | carlos: Thank you for your input this evening! | 06:49 |
| kiko | mrevell, well, we do offer advanced searching too. | 06:49 |
| flacoste | this is not a definitive answer, but we are upgrading to PosgreSQL 8.2 which will allow us to improve greatly our text searches | 06:49 |
| flacoste | or so says our DBA | 06:50 |
| heno | We should perhaps look at integrating some of the search features developed in bughelper directly in LP | 06:50 |
| Kuhrscher | He is absoultely right. I it is very difficult to find bugs even if you know it is existing... | 06:50 |
| mrevell | flacoste, kiko: Thanks. It looks as though Davor isn't here, so hopefully he'll see your replies in the meeting report. | 06:50 |
| === danilos has to leave as well | ||
| danilos | thanks for the questions, and don't forget that you can always email us or catch us here in #launchpad as well | 06:51 |
| mrevell | Okay, moving onto the next question. | 06:51 |
| mrevell | "the bug numbers are atomic, so it would be convenient that the search box (or another text box) acts like a quick "go to" when you enter a bug number | 06:52 |
| mrevell | tabs should be click-able everywhere on it, not just on the text | 06:52 |
| mrevell | disabled tabs should disappears or have another color" | 06:52 |
| mrevell | That question is from TheCore, who had to leave early. BjornT is that something you could answer? | 06:52 |
| ddaa | tabs clickable everywhere has a bug currently assigned to Usman | 06:53 |
| mrevell | BjornT: As far as I know, the search box does allow you to enter a bug number. | 06:53 |
| mrevell | ddaa: thanks | 06:53 |
| ddaa | jump-to-bug-number currently works, and there's a bug open about changing it because it prevents searching for numbers | 06:53 |
| mrevell | ddaa: Thank you. | 06:54 |
| ddaa | But it does not appear to work in the global search | 06:54 |
| mrevell | We had a number of other questions as well, relating to Rosetta. I'll post those to the launchpad-users list, along with the other questions from tonight's meeting. | 06:54 |
| mrevell | Do any users present have questions that were not raised in the agenda? | 06:54 |
| ddaa | yeah, it only works in the bug search box | 06:55 |
| alex_muntada | mrevell: when will next meeting take place? | 06:55 |
| mrevell | alex_muntada: Aha :) That's the next item on the agenda. | 06:55 |
| alex_muntada | :) | 06:55 |
| mthaddon | Is there any date in mind (fixed or simply targeted) for the release of UI 1.0? | 06:55 |
| Kuhrscher | We don't talk about Rosetta? | 06:55 |
| mrevell | Kuhrscher: Quite a large part of the meeting has been about Rosetta-related issues. Unfortunately, both main Rosetta developers have had to leave now. I'll raise the remaining questions on the launchpad-users list. | 06:56 |
| Kuhrscher | That's really annoying... | 06:57 |
| mrevell | mthaddon: We want Launchpad 1.0 to be perfect before we make it the default choice for Launchpad users. However, you can use the beta right now. | 06:58 |
| ddaa | would be nice to have it happen sooner than later | 06:58 |
| thumper | well, it'll never be perfect | 06:59 |
| ddaa | dealing with the divergence between production and rocketfuel will become increasingly painful | 06:59 |
| thumper | we just want it to look good and work | 06:59 |
| alex_muntada | Any news about LP UI translation? | 06:59 |
| mthaddon | mrevell, I agree, but am wondering if there's a targeted date for that or just "when it's ready"? | 06:59 |
| kiko | okay, off the phone! | 06:59 |
| mrevell | Kuhrscher: I'm sorry that we haven't got to your questions. It's the first time we've run the meeting, so please blame me for my lack of experience. | 06:59 |
| flacoste | alex_muntada: the localization of the Answer Tracker is targeted for after the 1.0 release | 07:00 |
| mrevell | mthaddon: Much like a pint of Guinness, when it's ready :) | 07:00 |
| kiko | about a date for 1.0; right now the issue is polish and warts. there are a lot of warts and quite a bit of polish but there is no heavy lifting to be done | 07:00 |
| alex_muntada | flacoste: too bad :( | 07:00 |
| Kuhrscher | Sorry, but my impression is that upstream i18n issues are always treated like that :( | 07:00 |
| mthaddon | mrevell: gotcha - well much like a pint of Guinness it's looking pretty good right now and I'm sure it'll taste great when it's done | 07:00 |
| kiko | so it's more a matter of weeks than months. | 07:00 |
| mrevell | mthaddon: :) | 07:01 |
| Kuhrscher | And that is not only my impression... | 07:01 |
| kiko | that's a great way of not giving a deadline isn't it? | 07:01 |
| kiko | Kuhrscher, we give upstream i18n a lot of priority, but the truth is that rosetta is not a trivial application, and that work there takes time. | 07:01 |
| kiko | we've had a lot of serious performance issues over the past six months, and fixing those issues takes effort; not bean-counting effort, but debugging, refactoring, redesign, etc. | 07:02 |
| kiko | so I make no apologies for our lack of progress on that front, though I do promise that we are working hard on it and that there is a horizon of improvement. | 07:02 |
| ddaa | in other words, it's a freaking three headed cerberus, and one developer has to hold it down while the other developers tries to beats it down silly while jumping around to dodge the bites | 07:02 |
| Kuhrscher | kiko: To be honestly I don't see any improvements regarding the most annoying issues for us. | 07:02 |
| heno | kiko: that has a Pentagon ring to it ;p | 07:02 |
| kiko | Kuhrscher, I don't think that's a very fair comment. | 07:03 |
| heno | 'at a time of our choosing' | 07:03 |
| kiko | we've in the past three months: improved general performance significantly, improved the way the translation for is structured for reviewers, allowed public indexing and browsing of translations, improved the way both imports and exports were handled, and along the way, fixed dozens of bugs that affected "you" | 07:04 |
| === flacoste is starving to death | ||
| kiko | we've also done major work towards implementing native support for firefox and openoffice translations | 07:04 |
| kiko | planned the next generation database schema | 07:04 |
| === flacoste is now known as flacoste_lunch | ||
| kiko | ... the list goes on. so I'm sure that you've seen some improvements; perhaps not the ones that annoy you the most, but we have many users, and it's hard to keep everybody happy. | 07:05 |
| mrevell | kiko: Thanks very much. | 07:05 |

| kiko | mrevell, about the bug searches; I'm not sure if the issue is that the advanced search is invisible, or if it's because the search isn't useful enough. it might be both! | 07:06 |
| kiko | when davor replies via launchpad-users we'll know. :) | 07:06 |
| mrevell | Kuhrscher: Again, I'm sorry that we didn't fully cover your questions. I'll get answers to them for you. | 07:06 |
| Kuhrscher | Kiko: Sorry, if I annoyed you. | 07:06 |
| mrevell | Thank you everyone for attending, for your questions and for your time. | 07:06 |
| mrevell | I propose the next meeting at 09:00 on Wednesday 14 March 07. Any objections? | 07:06 |
| Kuhrscher | Kiko: The only import point for me is, to have all upstremas translations in Rosetta and in the distribution. | 07:07 |
| kiko | Kuhrscher, sure. I'll relay that to carlos and danilos who have spent days and nights working to make it a better service. :) | 07:07 |
| thumper | mrevell: 9:00UTC? | 07:07 |
| bac | mrevell: that's pretty tough for the Americas. | 07:07 |
| mrevell | bac: Yeah, but 17:00 UTC is bad for Australia. | 07:07 |
| thumper | bac, but ok for ozzies | 07:07 |
| kiko | 9:00UTC? wow! | 07:07 |
| mrevell | thumper: Yeah | 07:08 |
| Kuhrscher | Kiko: And the last two releases there had been so many problems. If it is better now, no one will be happier than me :) | 07:08 |
| bac | mrevell: if it's alternating that's fine | 07:08 |
| mrevell | kiko: I can change it if it doesn't work, but I want to make sure we cater for .au and .nz | 07:08 |
| mrevell | bac: Yeah, I'll alternate. | 07:08 |
| kiko | Kuhrscher, I kind of want to slit my wrists at the performance issues to be honest. they are proving to be much harder to fix than we expected | 07:08 |
| kiko | we've made changes, waited to see them go live, and been dismayed at how bad things went | 07:09 |
| kiko | right now danilos has just landed a change which might improve things again | 07:09 |
| mrevell | Okay, well, thanks again everyone. Obviously you're free to continue your conversations, but I'll draw the official meeting to a close for this week. | 07:09 |

| kiko | I can give you a hint though | 07:20 |
| kiko | you /can/ change the batch size and search manually | 07:21 |
| Kuhrscher | So how can find out if for example koffice-18n has been imported? | 07:21 |
| Kuhrscher | Only manually? | 07:21 |

| === sinzui_lunch is now known as sinzui | ||
| Kuhrscher | The template of KOffice in Rosetta seems to be actualized to 1.6.2 but all new translations are still missing. I know it is completly translated by upstream because I did it ;-) | 07:25 |
| Kuhrscher | But perhaps we just have to wait :) | 07:25 |
| kiko | might not have been imported yet | 07:26 |

| Kuhrscher | Should we file bugs for each issue? | 07:28 |
| kiko | bugs.launchpad.net/rosetta | 07:28 |
| kiko | Kuhrscher, it depends on the type of issue I guess | 07:28 |
| kiko | but you can, yes | 07:28 |
| kiko | I think there's a tag for import problems | 07:28 |
| kiko | let me check | 07:28 |
| kiko | danilos? | 07:28 |
| kiko | or matsubara-lunch he is the man that knows these questions | 07:29 |
| Kuhrscher | I think we should try to handle these issues before the translation process is opened... | 07:29 |
| Kuhrscher | If there aren't any problems like this I will send you a box of beer :) | 07:30 |
| kiko | what will I do with all that beer! | 07:31 |
| Kuhrscher | It's your choice ;-) | 07:32 |
| kiko | so I think what is planned to happen | 07:33 |
| kiko | is that we're going to finish imports | 07:33 |
| kiko | and then ask you to review them | 07:33 |
| kiko | and then get the remaining misses sorted out | 07:33 |

| flacoste | hey thumper, you can probably answer my question: do you know if we have a Zope3 SVN import set up? | 09:23 |
| thumper | flacoste: I'm not entirely sure, but I know that if we don't we will have soon... | 09:23 |

| ddaa | I'm just ping-thrashing | 09:26 |
| LaserJock | he had to go out back to find zope ;-) | 09:26 |
| === noirin [n=firebird@morpheus.nerdchic.net] has joined #launchpad | ||
| ddaa | so, there's a zope3 thing that's testfailed | 09:27 |
| === noirin [n=firebird@morpheus.nerdchic.net] has left #launchpad [] | ||
| ddaa | which is blowing on this mysterious assertion in svn_subst_translate_stream3 | 09:28 |
| ddaa | Assertion `eol_str || keywords' failed. | 09:28 |
| ddaa | when doing svn_client_checkout | 09:28 |
| ddaa | how brain-damaged is that? | 09:28 |
| flacoste | you tell me! | 09:29 |
| ddaa | very, very much | 09:29 |
| === sinzui is now known as sinzui_afk | ||
| ddaa | I expect to have this problem fixed by bypassing keyword expansion entirely in imports | 09:29 |
| ddaa | unless somebody can give me a better idea | 09:29 |
| ddaa | which will be possible using svn_ra | 09:30 |
| ddaa | which leads us the infamous problem "python svn bindings are pain" | 09:31 |
| ddaa | not easily fixable without upgrading the importd systems to edgy... | 09:31 |
| ddaa | or maybe this specific bit of API is acutally usable on dapper... | 09:32 |
| BjornT | iirc cscvs doesn't handle svn externals, or does it? zope3 uses that quite a lot. | 09:32 |
| ddaa | well... not something I can fix tonight, for sure | 09:32 |
| ddaa | BjornT: it ignores them entirely | 09:32 |
| ddaa | each external should be imported separately | 09:33 |
| thumper | ddaa: I understand that the zope guys are looking to break stuff up into separate repositories | 09:33 |
| ddaa | which is the meaningful thing to do until a long time in the future | 09:33 |
| thumper | and use python eggs | 09:33 |
| thumper | but I don't know their timeline | 09:33 |
| ddaa | the "long time in the future" thing is when we have redesign the import system enough to have a single import tied to multiple branches and multiple productseries... | 09:34 |
| thumper | flacoste: I guess the answer is no then | 09:34 |
| flacoste | yeah, that's what I understood | 09:34 |
| ddaa | should I add this to my todo list? | 09:34 |
| thumper | ddaa: I was just going to catch up and see how things are going for you and what you're doing now | 09:34 |
| thumper | ddaa: what zope3? | 09:35 |
| ddaa | yes, zope3 | 09:35 |
| ddaa | I could try a shortcut | 09:35 |
| thumper | ddaa: I'd say yes | 09:35 |
| ddaa | okay, added it near the bottom of my todo, just before "cvscvs pyrex"... | 09:36 |
| flacoste | ddaa: I don't know if an import of zope3 is a priority, SteveA would be the one to ask | 09:37 |
| ddaa | thumper: at the moment, trying to deal with an anomalously high rate of pings | 09:37 |
| thumper | ddaa: what do you mean? | 09:38 |
| ddaa | flacoste: I'd be happy to talk with SteveA about reshuffling my todo list :) | 09:38 |
| thumper | ddaa: what's on your todo list? | 09:38 |
| ddaa | thumper: I mean I have two other things calling for my attention at the moment :) | 09:38 |
| thumper | ddaa: I know what you mean | 09:38 |
| thumper | I am in the middle of another production cycle of the mag I edit | 09:39 |
| thumper | and I have to write my conference talk | 09:39 |
| ddaa | thumper: here's what's next https://devpad.canonical.com/~andrew/paste/fileKEblOC.html | 09:39 |
| ddaa | not counting branches that are pending review | 09:39 |
| thumper | ok | 09:40 |
| thumper | I've got another couple of things to chuck into that list | 09:40 |
| thumper | but they are more interesting dev things | 09:40 |
| thumper | like the import db refactoring | 09:40 |
| ddaa | actually, branch-puller errors fixage is probably going to be one big branch with some other fixes too | 09:40 |
| thumper | and the import ui pages | 09:40 |
| ddaa | and and reviewing specs and stuff from you and jml | 09:40 |
| thumper | ddaa: of course :) | 09:41 |
| ddaa | when you need my attention, it makes it right at the top of the list | 09:41 |
| ddaa | so this todo list looks like two months until I can get to zope3, at the current pace... | 09:42 |
| ddaa | doing insane amount of context-switching and review and chat nowadays | 09:42 |

| thumper | paraphrased: if you have contexted switched to do something else, don't switch to yet a third thing until number two is done | 09:44 |

| lifeless | barry: ping | 09:45 |
| ddaa | or are they things I can act on reactively? | 09:45 |
| thumper | ddaa: they can wait a bit until your queue is a little shorter, but I'd like them on there | 09:46 |
| thumper | ^^^^ | 09:46 |
| ddaa | what do you mean by "import ui pages"? | 09:47 |
| thumper | ddaa: the items were mentioned above: db refactoring for import | 09:47 |
| thumper | ddaa: listings of various import statuses, whiteboard in imports et al | 09:47 |
| thumper | ddaa: the things we talked about on the explicit branch type spec | 09:47 |
| thumper | ddaa: however if you really think that you'd not be able to get to these within the next month or two | 09:48 |
| thumper | I might talk to jml about them | 09:48 |
| ddaa | actually, I'd rather dump some items from my current list to jml | 09:48 |
| ddaa | such as fixing the branch-puller errors, correct check after remirroring, sftp server oopses | 09:49 |
| ddaa | and better importstatus control | 09:49 |

| mpt | jml, so what will be the distribution of commit messages generally? 70% less than 200 characters? 50%? 30%? | 11:35 |
| mpt | If that page is typical, using <h3> is probably too heavy | 11:35 |

| jml | I honestly don't know | 11:36 |

| jkakar | mpt: Perhaps more importantly, will my bug report get to the right people? | 11:55 |
| mpt | sinzui, it's used whenever one thing of several needs highlighting. For example, in a bug page, class="highlight" is used for the table to highlight your current context. | 11:56 |
| mpt | aha | 11:57 |
| mpt | in product pages class="highlighted" is used to highlight the series that's the "current development focus" | 11:57 |
| mpt | highlight, highlighted, they shouldn't both exist... | 11:57 |
| sinzui | mpt: thanks. so mouseover events should be a different background-color. I lifted #eeeeee from another class for a new class called enhightlight | 11:58 |
| mpt | jkakar, "project group" is the new name for "project". "Project" is the new name for "product". Neither of these changes are fully implemented yet. | 11:58 |
| mpt | sinzui, are you greasemonkeying, or user.css-ing? | 11:58 |
| jkakar | mpt: Ah, okay. Thanks. | 11:59 |
| mpt | jkakar, so <https://bugs.beta.launchpad.net/bazaar/+bugs> should link to <https://bugs.beta.launchpad.net/bazaar/+filebug> | 11:59 |
| mpt | and you see that the first field in that page is asking you which product to report the bug against | 11:59 |
| sinzui | mpt: I think I'm doing both. | 11:59 |
| sinzui | mpt: This is the effect given in the example | 12:00 |
| sinzui | https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/buglist.cgi?bug_status=MODIFIED&version=devel | 12:00 |
| mpt | sinzui, very interesting, perhaps you could e-mail me the results once you're done :-) | 12:00 |
| LarstiQ | mpt: ugh, more confusement | 12:00 |
| mpt | LarstiQ, hmm? | 12:01 |
| LarstiQ | mpt: product/project renaming | 12:01 |
| mpt | oh, yeah, well | 12:01 |
| kiko | yeah | 12:02 |
| kiko | it's a long-term win | 12:02 |
| LarstiQ | jkakar: would what mpt just said about bazaar/+filebug asking about the product to file it against solve that problem of not looking for bzr instead of bazaar? | 12:02 |
| LarstiQ | kiko: oh probably, it just feels as a lot of changes of direction | 12:02 |
| mpt | sinzui, that seems a bit weird to me. I try to avoid hover effects in general, but where they are used, they usually indicate clickability. Not so in bugzilla.redhat.com, though. | 12:02 |
| kiko | LarstiQ, in this case it's a change of direction we all want! :) | 12:02 |
| jkakar | LarstiQ: Yup, I suspect it would help. As someone not intimately familiar with the various contexts in LP I find it's often hard to know what you're looking at. More clarification would help. | 12:03 |
| LarstiQ | kiko: so how about things like 'the gnome project'? :) | 12:03 |
| kiko | LarstiQ, that's illegal!!! | 12:03 |
| kiko | it's fine I think personally | 12:03 |
| LarstiQ | jkakar: ah, atm I'm selfishly only concerned with confusion about Bazaar ;) | 12:04 |
| mpt | LarstiQ, sorry, according to Launchpad, Gnome is not a project :-P | 12:04 |
| mpt | it's a group of projects | 12:04 |
| kiko | mpt, even in real life, if there is such a defined thing as a project | 12:04 |
| kiko | WHY AM I DISCUSSING THIS!!!! | 12:04 |
| sinzui | mpt: I agree. hence I'm engaging in a spurious solution. We are making wide lines more legible for scanning in exchange for ambiguity in behaviour. | 12:04 |
| === kiko goes back to work | ||
| === mpt is reminded of jdub's "GNOME: Product or project?" slide | ||
| sinzui | mpt: I'll send you a patch to observe. | 12:05 |
| LarstiQ | mpt: I agree it's better than previously | 12:05 |
| mpt | yes, it's an improvement. | 12:05 |
| === mpt goes back to work too | ||
| mpt | lifeless, http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=347520 | 12:07 |
| Ubugtu | Gnome bug 347520 in Mailer "From: address with no space between display name and "<" is parsed incorrectly" [Normal,Resolved: notabug] - Assigned to evolution-mail-maintainers@ximian.com | 12:07 |
| LarstiQ | mpt: last interjection from me before I go to bed, were you working on having the original date, submitter visible by default on bugs? | 12:08 |
| mpt | LarstiQ, yes. | 12:09 |
| lifeless | mpt: ? | 12:09 |
| mpt | lifeless, it's a bug in PQM's mail notifications | 12:10 |
| LarstiQ | mpt: thanks | 12:10 |
| lifeless | mpt: file a bug on pqm please | 12:11 |
| mpt | ok | 12:11 |
