| shirish | hi all, anybody around? | 03:05 |
| nixternal | hello! | 03:13 |
| shirish | guys I want to write some documentation & need help, if anybody can | 03:14 |
| shirish | hi nixternal good you are around | 03:15 |
| shirish | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs | 03:15 |
| shirish | this is the document I'm in the process of editing, I wanna add the bit about reporting bugs upstream & one of the tools for it. | 03:15 |
| nixternal | yup, that would bdmurray's baby there. when it has to do with bug reporting he is DA MAN! | 03:16 |
| nixternal | that looks like it would be a good addition truthfully | 03:16 |
| shirish | nixternal: it would be great if he was around, unfortunately he is not, so I just wanna know for e.g. what the correct title & stuff | 03:16 |
| nixternal | what tool are you referring to? | 03:16 |
| shirish | reportbug | 03:16 |
| shirish | & the newer reportbug-ng | 03:17 |
| shirish | it's the tool used by debian to do stuff | 03:17 |
| shirish | to report bugs | 03:17 |
| nixternal | hrmm, I thought there was a reportbug doc somewhere..but I might be thinking of Debian | 03:17 |
| nixternal | I don't use reportbug anymore, I have a couple of Debian templates now in KMail that I use, much quicker | 03:18 |
| shirish | nixternal: there is no doc. atleast in the community space with the name reportbug | 03:18 |
| nixternal | also, the reportbug in Ubuntu sends to Ubuntu and not Debian I believe | 03:18 |
| shirish | with the title reportbug | 03:18 |
| shirish | nixternal: the one in gutsy sends to debian using ubuntu as SMTP server, maybe drop a copy there. | 03:19 |
| shirish | meaning a copy would go upstream and one would go to ubuntu, so I believe | 03:19 |
| nixternal | shirish: I would create a reportbug page, and then add a link to the "ReportingBugs" page maybe | 03:20 |
| nixternal | ahh, the one in Feisty sent it to Ubuntu I believe | 03:20 |
| shirish | nixternal: that would be the best way I guess, but I need to know how it really works, we wouldn't want people to have wrong documentation | 03:21 |
| shirish | perhaps I put the question on ubuntu-devel & they can have some correct answers. | 03:21 |
| nixternal | there or ubuntu-motu@lists.ubuntu.com | 03:21 |
| nixternal | definitely would be a great doc to have...I would also look at creating a page on wiki.ubuntu.com maybe that would refresh to help.ubuntu.com...but that doesn't have to be done now...MOTU can link to it in one of their pages | 03:22 |
| shirish | nixternal: I could join ubuntu-motu@lists.ubuntu.com but don't think I can give much help there besides this one thing | 03:24 |
| nixternal | shirish: you should be able to send an email to the list, and at the bottom ask them to CC you since you aren't a member on that list | 03:25 |
| shirish | ah, that would be nice | 03:25 |
| nixternal | then again, everyone on -motu is also on -devel-discuss as well | 03:25 |
| nixternal | -bugsquad is another list as well :) | 03:25 |
| shirish | that's true, I just signed up for bugsquad today so that should also be not an issue | 03:28 |
| shirish | signed up as in the mailing list | 03:29 |
| shirish | :) | 03:29 |
