| iwj | Hello. | 01:58 |
| === mvo waves | ||
| pitti | apology in advance; we are in the midst of the final Beta release steps, so please mention "pitti" if you need an answer quickly | 01:58 |
| Riddell | hi | 01:58 |
| Mithrandir | morning | 02:00 |
| Keybuk | kwwii, MacSlow: here? | 02:02 |
| kwwii | yepp | 02:03 |
| MacSlow | sure | 02:04 |
| MacSlow | sorry was on the loo before the meeting :) | 02:04 |
| Keybuk | lol | 02:05 |
| Keybuk | no problem | 02:05 |
| Keybuk | let's get going then | 02:05 |
| Keybuk | #startmeeting | 02:05 |
| MootBot | Meeting started at 13:05. The chair is Keybuk. | 02:05 |
| MootBot | Commands Available: [TOPIC] , [IDEA] , [ACTION] , [AGREED] , [LINK] , [VOTE] | 02:05 |
| Mithrandir | woo, it has its clock adjusted now! | 02:06 |
| Mithrandir | amazing | 02:06 |
| Keybuk | [TOPIC] apturl support for PPAs | 02:06 |
| MootBot | New Topic: apturl support for PPAs | 02:06 |
| Keybuk | mvo? | 02:06 |
| MacSlow | what's the help-option for these commands? | 02:06 |
| mvo | yes | 02:06 |
| mvo | the Spec (and the current implementation) have a | 02:06 |
| mvo | apt+http://foo.bar?package=baz syntax that allows adding | 02:06 |
| mvo | new repositories if the repository is signed with a key | 02:06 |
| mvo | we have in the apt keyring. The use-case for this was PPA. | 02:06 |
| mvo | It turns out that PPAs are not signed currently and that it is | 02:06 |
| mvo | uncertain when they will and with what key. I would like to disable | 02:06 |
| mvo | this feature in apturl therefore for gutsy and come back to it when | 02:07 |
| mvo | the situation with the PPAs is more clear. Any objections? | 02:07 |
| mvo | i may add that the feature is currently buggy and that I would prefer to disable it given that the main use-case is currently gone and that there are more things to attack | 02:07 |
| pitti | mvo: did you see my q on the ML? | 02:07 |
| pitti | ah, buggy in what way? that wasn't mentioned in your initial topic | 02:08 |
| mvo | pitti: yes, you said its not worse than gdebi (I agree) | 02:08 |
| pitti | I haven't seen the feature 'live' yet, I have to admin | 02:08 |
| pitti | admit, even | 02:08 |
| mvo | pitti: not well tested as there is notthing really to test against and probably not very useful as the spec requires signed repsoitores | 02:09 |
| mvo | that make it currently a bit mood | 02:09 |
| pitti | I see | 02:09 |
| mvo | because the only default repositories in the apt keyring are archive.u.c and archive.canonical.com (the later is not enabled by default) | 02:09 |
| mvo | the remainaing bit (easy way to install pkgs via: e.g. apt:2vcard) will remain of course | 02:10 |
| === ian_brasil [n=ian@dasasob.nokia.com] has joined #ubuntu-meeting | ||
| pitti | mvo: what are the bugs why we should disable it? | 02:10 |
| MacSlow | but isn't the PPA also meant for the broader community and 3rd-parties to have an easy mean to provide easy to install .deb for Ubuntu-users? | 02:11 |
| pitti | but they are not signed, noone knows what's in them, so we shouldn't make it too easy to accidentally ruin your system with them | 02:11 |
| mvo | pitti: the code that prevents unsigned repos currently just gives a huge warning, but let the user proceed , that needs to be fixed and it needs to be ensured that its properly rolled back. not a big deal, bu | 02:12 |
| pitti | but that's independent from the reason why we should disable it now | 02:12 |
| MacSlow | and also to help MOTUs a bit with packaging-work... I'm just wondering if the signing (with key in the offical key-ring) is meant to be mandatory | 02:12 |
| mvo | but its something I would have to attend to | 02:12 |
| pitti | mvo: I agree, that *is* a problem | 02:12 |
| Keybuk | what does signing guarantee you in this case/ | 02:13 |
| mvo | given the main use-case is not ready I propose postponing it | 02:13 |
| Keybuk | apt signing guarantees repository integrity | 02:13 |
| Keybuk | not trustworthy code | 02:13 |
| mvo | sure | 02:13 |
| mvo | but we don't open the floodgates with it, only to a certain degree (launchpad) | 02:13 |
| pitti | well, it guarantees that you don't get packages from people or projects for which you haven't made an educated decision to trust them | 02:13 |
| pitti | I wouldn't like to install all PPAs out there | 02:14 |
| MacSlow | but PPA will not allow binary-only packages... or will it? | 02:14 |
| pitti | MacSlow: doesn't matter | 02:14 |
| mvo | we have some control over LP and PPA, but none over externally hosted repos | 02:14 |
| pitti | MacSlow: arbitrary source packages with buildds are fully enough to hijack your system :) | 02:14 |
| mvo | at least we could stop bad stuff happening | 02:14 |
| MacSlow | pitti, yeah... probably | 02:14 |
| mvo | the idea was to have the ppa signing key in the whitelist for apturl (not enabled by default, but possible to add) | 02:15 |
| Keybuk | pitti: anyone can have a PPA though? | 02:15 |
| pitti | Keybuk: right, that's my point | 02:16 |
| Mithrandir | if we open it for PPAs, signed or not, we might just as well open it to the world. | 02:16 |
| Keybuk | pitti: so I don't see where the trust is | 02:16 |
| pitti | Keybuk: I might decide to import mvo's gpg key into my apt keyring | 02:16 |
| Keybuk | PPAs end up a bit like hotmail accounts | 02:16 |
| MacSlow | btw... afaik SuSE | 02:16 |
| pitti | Keybuk: so that I can use mvo's PPA with apturl, but not everyone's | 02:16 |
| MacSlow | s buildservice allows nearly everything to be build... as long as it builds | 02:17 |
| Keybuk | pitti: I thought the original PPA spec was to use a single key for them | 02:17 |
| pitti | Keybuk: erm, I am reasoning under the assumption that PPAs are not signed with the Ubuntu key, but with the uploader's, of course | 02:17 |
| Mithrandir | pitti: how would they be? | 02:17 |
| pitti | Keybuk: eww; that would make them fairly useless | 02:17 |
| Keybuk | pitti: I wouldn't get LP my gpg private key :p | 02:17 |
| MacSlow | appearing to "picky" to the outside-world might shed a bad light on Ubuntu | 02:17 |
| mvo | in what way it will be signed is unclear currently | 02:17 |
| Mithrandir | LP doesn't (and can't) have my GPG private key. | 02:17 |
| pitti | Keybuk: not my personal one, but certainly I'd create a 'ppa key', sign it with mine, and give it to LP | 02:18 |
| Keybuk | simple fact is that if a user is determined to install something, they will go through whatever steps to install it they need to | 02:18 |
| pitti | Keybuk: hm, it seems we have a more basic problem here then, which needs to be solved before we can even think about apturl | 02:18 |
| iwj | When you add a PPA to your configuration you're deciding to trust it. At that point the relevant key should be added. | 02:18 |
| iwj | And when you take it out again it should be removed. | 02:19 |
| pitti | Keybuk: right, but with apturl it gets so easy that you can do it accidentally | 02:19 |
| Keybuk | pitti: I don't agree that it should be hard | 02:19 |
| iwj | And obviously PPAs ought to have a key per PPA. | 02:19 |
| mvo | it would be the same amount of work as with gdebi (big warning + password entry) | 02:19 |
| pitti | Keybuk: it should be hard enough so that you have to make an educated decision about it (not hard to discover) | 02:19 |
| MacSlow | what about haveing a "rating system" for PPAs... like the main, universe, multiverse repos... to give uneducated users a kind of guideline regarding "trustworthyness"? | 02:20 |
| pitti | mvo: warnings don't work with security | 02:20 |
| Keybuk | pitti: the only thing I can think of is that when adding an apturl, it gets the public key for it automatically and shows you a "do you trust software signed by this key?" kind of dialog | 02:20 |
| iwj | MacSlow: Who would decide ? Anyone useful enough to decide that would never want all of the hideous politics. | 02:20 |
| Keybuk | those are whack-a-mole dialogs though | 02:20 |
| Mithrandir | Keybuk: and we've all seen how well they work in the windows world. | 02:20 |
| mvo | pitti: right, its the "I want to get my work done" thing. but people will try to get their work done anyway and they may use bad scripts if we don't provide something better | 02:20 |
| Mithrandir | it's a typical "do you want me to do what I just told you to?" dialog. | 02:21 |
| Keybuk | Mithrandir: exactly; "I want this software, stop trying to tell me I don't" is the usual reaction | 02:21 |
| pitti | mvo: right, so we have to make sure that we can create per-user trust in PPAs themselves | 02:21 |
| pitti | signing *all* PPAs with the same GPG key is worse than not signing them at all | 02:21 |
| Keybuk | users will jump any fence in the way of them installing the shiny app | 02:21 |
| pitti | because it implies trust where no trust can be | 02:21 |
| Keybuk | and will blame us for having the fence there in the first place | 02:21 |
| === Hobbsee [n=Hobbsee@ubuntu/member/hobbsee] has joined #ubuntu-meeting | ||
| iwj | Personally I think giving people the expectation that they should be trusting software obtained from URLs is a bad thing. | 02:22 |
| pitti | Keybuk: better than blaming us for getting hacked without even knowing what they had done | 02:22 |
| iwj | So I suppose I mean that I disapprove of the whole principle of apturl. | 02:22 |
| Keybuk | pitti: they'll blame us anyway | 02:22 |
| pitti | Keybuk: I agree | 02:22 |
| Keybuk | look at all of the people who blame windows for being buggy due to the software that they have installed | 02:22 |
| pitti | but at least for the right reason | 02:22 |
| mvo | iwj: the trouble here is that people are used to it (think firefox extensions or tucows and stuff liket his) | 02:22 |
| Mithrandir | pitti: it seems you think the signing of the Packages file implies any guarantee of quality. I don't think it does, I only think it implies "this is what you intended to download", which a single key is fine for. | 02:22 |
| iwj | The typical way to deal with these problems is, in the cases where we don't want the user to "just install it dammit" without thinking: make the UI where trust is extended separate, and make it impossible for a website to bring it up. | 02:23 |
| pitti | Mithrandir: but contrary to PPAs, uploading to archive.u.c. is restricted to a small number of people which we established trust to | 02:23 |
| Keybuk | iwj: so when you click the [Install] button on the website, what would happen? | 02:23 |
| iwj | Firefox extensions are different because there's at least some kind of quality control by mozilla on the autoinstallation site. | 02:23 |
| iwj | Keybuk: There shouldn't be [Install] buttons on websites. | 02:24 |
| Keybuk | iwj: the autoinstall site is just one site | 02:24 |
| Keybuk | anyone can add a firefox installer to their own | 02:24 |
| iwj | Keybuk: Yes, and I think that's EBW too. | 02:24 |
| Keybuk | firefox asks you whether you trust the site | 02:24 |
| Keybuk | everyone clicks Yes without ever reading that dialog | 02:24 |
| iwj | I'm swimming upstream on this one but we're just making a rod for our own backs. | 02:24 |
| Keybuk | holy double metaphor! | 02:24 |
| MacSlow | Keybuk, I read them... always...but click "Yes" anyway in the end :) | 02:24 |
| iwj | When we're as popular as 'doze, all of our users will be having all of the same problems that 'doze users have now. | 02:24 |
| Mithrandir | pitti: I don't see why that's relevant. When you add a PPA key to your keyring, you're not saying "plz install everything you can find signed with this key", you're saying "I trust this key to provide packages which are as the author intended them". | 02:25 |
| Keybuk | s/author/key holder/ | 02:25 |
| iwj | I don't disapprove of things like the codec installation, where an untrusted entity gets to trigger the installation of software which is trusted by us in some sense but happens not to be installed. | 02:25 |
| Mithrandir | Keybuk: yes | 02:25 |
| pitti | Keybuk: no, if ther is just a single key for all PPAa | 02:25 |
| pitti | PPAs | 02:25 |
| Keybuk | signing PPAs doesn't make much sense to me ... | 02:25 |
| Keybuk | we sign the archive so that the software knows that the archive hasn't been tampered with | 02:26 |
| iwj | Signing PPAs is obviously essential, surely ? | 02:26 |
| Keybuk | (ie. versions or packages replaced with others) | 02:26 |
| Mithrandir | signing PPAs is nice against MITM attacks, or if we ever end up having any kinds of mirrors. | 02:26 |
| pitti | Mithrandir: for me it is a difference whether I take all packages from an organization I trust, or all packages from a random person I have never heard of | 02:26 |
| Keybuk | PPAs are inherently "provide alternate versions of packages" archives | 02:26 |
| iwj | Otherwise someone who decides they want some PPA (eg, the PPA's own uploaders!) can't even know they're getting the packages they meant. | 02:26 |
| Mithrandir | pitti: I think that by extending your argument, we should use different keys for universe and main? | 02:26 |
| === zul [n=chuck@ubuntu/member/zul] has joined #ubuntu-meeting | ||
| Keybuk | pitti: if you don't trust them, don't add the url? :) | 02:27 |
| pitti | Mithrandir: that's something we might consider, yes | 02:27 |
| iwj | How about we take the extended discussion to email ? I don't think we're going to get anywhere with all of these issues in this meeting. | 02:27 |
| Mithrandir | pitti: if you think that's sensible, I see your argument, I just disagree with you. | 02:27 |
| Keybuk | iwj: agree, we're not coming to any kind of consensus here | 02:27 |
| iwj | In the meantime we need to make a decision about apturl and I would vote to disable it. | 02:27 |
| MacSlow | iwj, sounds reasonable | 02:27 |
| Keybuk | [VOTE] disable apturl? | 02:28 |
| pitti | Mithrandir: I'm just much less concerned about the main/universe difference than archive.u.c./random PPA | 02:28 |
| MootBot | Please vote on: disable apturl?. | 02:28 |

| Keybuk | iwj: yeah, we've asked for some changes | 02:29 |
| DarkSun88 | Hi all. | 02:30 |
| Keybuk | [TOPIC] buildds don't have debconf accept | 02:30 |
| MootBot | New Topic: buildds don't have debconf accept | 02:30 |
| Riddell | someone please poke infinity | 02:30 |
| Riddell | he's not responding to my pokes | 02:30 |
| Keybuk | infinity has wandered off again | 02:30 |
| Keybuk | he hasn't responded to mine or colin's either | 02:30 |
| pitti | neither to my mails I sent a few days ago | 02:30 |
| iwj | Are we sure he's OK ? | 02:31 |
| pitti | is he on vac? | 02:31 |
| Mithrandir | I was in touch with him yesterday | 02:31 |
| Keybuk | in cases where you can't get hold of people for a sustained amount of time, and it's blocking your work, it's ok to ping their team leader instead | 02:32 |
| DarkSun88 | @schedule roma | 02:32 |
| DarkSun88 | @schedule rome | 02:32 |
| Riddell | when I asked on #canonical-sysadmin elmo told me to ping infinity | 02:33 |
| Keybuk | ping elmo again and he won't :) | 02:34 |
| Keybuk | though you'll have to justify why you wan tthat | 02:34 |
| Keybuk | so it's better to start off with a rationale | 02:34 |
| Riddell | justify why I want the debconf value set? so my package can build | 02:35 |
| iwj | Riddell: If you get some change made to the way the buildds are set up for building, my autopkgtest will perhaps barf on your packages anyway. So can you keep me in the loop ? | 02:35 |
| Riddell | sure | 02:35 |
| Keybuk | Riddell: elmo might not know why the package won't build without it | 02:36 |
| Keybuk | he's not as familiar as infinity | 02:36 |
| Keybuk | so an extra paragraph of rationale in the RT ticket can mean that anyone in his team can make the change, because it's obvious why | 02:36 |
| Keybuk | where if it's just "do X plz" it'll get blocked on one person who might know why X needs to be done | 02:36 |
| iwj | Riddell: Do you think we need to argue it through here, or can it be done by email ? | 02:36 |
| Mithrandir | changing the chroots is not something most people in the IS team can do, though. | 02:37 |
| Riddell | no, I'll poke elmo more, topic done | 02:37 |
| Keybuk | Mithrandir: if it became urgent, they could quite easily do it | 02:37 |
| iwj | Riddell: As I say, send rationale to me. | 02:37 |
| iwj | (as well)( | 02:37 |
| Keybuk | (even if it meant giving the tarball to me, or you, etc.) | 02:37 |

| Keybuk | right | 02:39 |
| Keybuk | thanks to those of you who sent in 8.04 experience amendments | 02:39 |
| MacSlow | ah... I thought my net was flaky | 02:40 |
| Keybuk | (if you haven't done, please mail them by the end of today!) | 02:40 |
| Keybuk | see my 8.04 Planning mail if you're confused as to what I mean | 02:40 |
| pitti | Keybuk: I apologize; release will be done soon, then I'll think about it | 02:40 |
| Keybuk | pitti: that's ok :) | 02:40 |
| Keybuk | otherwise, do we have any other business? | 02:40 |
| Mithrandir | Keybuk: when was that sent out? | 02:40 |
| pitti | 24.09.07 16:56 Scott James Remna More 8.04 Planning | 02:41 |
| Keybuk | oh, Mithrandir and Riddell - don't worry that you didn't get that one | 02:41 |
| Mithrandir | oh, ok. | 02:41 |
| MacSlow | Keybuk, I've a more fundamental thing I'll send you after this meeting... which is better discussed on the distro or devel list (I left it out of my 8.04 suggestions I sent before) | 02:41 |
| Keybuk | since you're working on mobile and KDE respectively, I'll send different mails to you later :) | 02:41 |
| Keybuk | MacSlow: sure, chat to me after the meeting and we'll debate where it should go | 02:41 |
| Mithrandir | Keybuk: ok, thanks. | 02:42 |
| MacSlow | Keybuk, ok | 02:42 |
| Keybuk | Mithrandir: in your case, mdz will probably be asking you for feature plans anyway | 02:42 |

| === Jucato [n=jucato@ubuntu/member/Jucato] has joined #ubuntu-meeting | ||

| === dholbach reads up what kind of decisions the LC will make | ||
| nixternal | that's actually not a bad idea seeing how large the LoCo's have gotten | 05:06 |

| === Flannel [n=flannel@cpe-76-176-22-229.san.res.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu-meeting | ||

| jono | OgMaciel: it could effectively take over loco approvals | 05:06 |
| jono | OgMaciel: so the CC does not get burdened with them | 05:07 |
| mako | jono: what are the single points of failure you are trying to remove? | 05:07 |
| OgMaciel | jono: understood... that's what I meant to say too ;) | 05:07 |
| smurf | jono: that's what he meant ;-) | 05:07 |
| jono | :) | 05:07 |
| jono | mako: me :) | 05:07 |
| OgMaciel | hehe | 05:07 |
| dholbach | jono: it seems that loco approvals is not part of the initial proposal yet, right? | 05:07 |
| jono | mako: I am also concious to provide a more objective council with a better knowledge of the community - one that lives in loco land every day | 05:07 |
| jono | and knows more about the cases | 05:08 |
| jono | dholbach: oh, isnt it? | 05:08 |
| jsgotangco | do you see an ideal geographical spread of council members? | 05:08 |
| mako | that makes sense | 05:08 |
| kjcole | I'm not very active in IRC, but speaking as a LoCo leader, I know we'd like to know which channels to go through for various resources. We've had good support, but don't want to wear out our welcome anywhere. | 05:08 |
| mako | jono: so you need to fix the fixme | 05:08 |
| === bur[n] er [n=burner@unaffiliated/burner] has joined #ubuntu-meeting | ||
| jono | let me fix this now | 05:08 |
| mako | jono: and you need to come up with a list of members to start with | 05:08 |
| mako | but the document looks great | 05:08 |
| jono | mako: like I say, I was going to suggest the members at the next CC meeting | 05:08 |
| === Flannel [n=flannel@cpe-76-176-22-229.san.res.rr.com] has left #ubuntu-meeting [] | ||
| jono | I wanted to get the core doc looked over first | 05:09 |
| === jamesstansell [n=james@adsl-209-184-36-173.dsl.tulsok.swbell.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting | ||
| === mako nods | ||
| mako | so this looks great and i'm happy to have a loco council.. in fact, i think i suggested it to some loco folks a year go but consensus was that it was better to wait | 05:09 |
| nixternal | mako: that you did | 05:10 |
| mako | so if the loco community feels that they're in a good position to do this, it's thumbs up by me | 05:10 |
| kjcole | At the same time, although politically left of center, I like the mantra of "smaller government". So, be careful not to codify too many layers of bureaucracy into things. | 05:10 |
| juliux | jono, will be there a realy election for the council members? | 05:10 |
| MikeB | jono, should there be something on geographical diversity for Loco Council member if possible | 05:10 |
| musashi1 | as a very activie member and education lead for the colorado loco i think something like this is needed | 05:10 |
| jono | I just added: | 05:10 |
| mako | juliux: absolutely, that's why i didn't push :) | 05:10 |
| jono | * The LoCo Council will also make decisions about the approval of LoCo teams, providing the primary means of approving teams instead of the Community Council. The Community Council will still retain the ability to approve teams where required though. | 05:10 |
| jono | juliux: the initial council will be nominated and approved by the CC | 05:10 |
| MikeB | one representative per continental area or something | 05:10 |
| juliux | jono, why? | 05:11 |
| jono | MikeB: I think it would make sense to have wide geographical membership on the council where it makes sense | 05:11 |
| juliux | i think if there is something that is called "loco council" it should be elected by the locos | 05:11 |
| jono | juliux: that is how previous councils have been formed | 05:11 |

| bordy | sorry to stick my nose in, but should there really be any geographical limitations? What if there are more qualified candidates on one continent than another, for example if australia has 2 awesome members but is limited to one in favor of a necessary member from another continent? | 05:11 |
| yann2 | MikeB > that sucks, fuck australia :D | 05:11 |
| yann2 | (sorry folks :P) | 05:11 |
| juliux | jono, sorry but we allways did is this way is no valid reason for me | 05:11 |
| jono | juliux: and a popularity contest is not the best way of bringng in a council | 05:12 |
| juliux | jono, if there is no election, who nominates the council? | 05:12 |
| jono | juliux: we always did it because after much discussion that is the best way to form the basis for a council | 05:12 |
| smurf | bordy: all other things being equal, though, geo diversity makes sense | 05:12 |
| === nixternal thinks this last CC was actually nominated by the community with a poll | ||
| jono | juliux: I would recommend that I nominate a council based on feedback from key community members, but ultimately, the CC decided and approves | 05:12 |
| bordy | smurf: true | 05:12 |
| juliux | nixternal, that wasn't an election there was no difference in saying yes or no | 05:13 |
| dholbach | we just decided something similar for the MOTU Council: the old MC debates over new MC members, which after TB/CC approval are voted for publically | 05:13 |
| dantalizing | it'll be tough getting a geographically diverse council together..not a deal killer, but something to consider | 05:13 |
| smurf | we need the CC's approval because it's the CC's responsibility *now*, we can't just take over ;-) | 05:13 |
| === Gwaihir [n=Gwaihir@ubuntu/member/gwaihir] has joined #ubuntu-meeting | ||
| mako | i just jono to come up with a good list | 05:13 |
| jono | juliux: this is about grandfathering in an initial council | 05:13 |
| yann2 | jono > make a list of proposed people, and ask the loco-contacts if they agree or have some better people to propose | 05:13 |
| mako | and see no reason to restrict it to proportional representation or by continental area | 05:13 |
| juliux | yann2, +1 | 05:13 |
| jsgotangco | i agree with mako | 05:13 |
| effie_jayx | jono, why not also have people put their names up and the CC and Jono have a look at people | 05:13 |
| mako | the most important issues is that we have a group of people who are active and involved and who the loco community respects | 05:13 |
| jono | oh of course I will solicit feedback for the proposed list from loco-contacts :) | 05:13 |
| jono | mako: indeed | 05:14 |
| === mhz [n=mhzamora@moinmoin/fan/mhz] has joined #ubuntu-meeting | ||
| jono | juliux: so if I propose a list, get feedback from the loco-contacts list and submit to the CC, would you happy with that? | 05:14 |
| kjcole | Geodiversity makes sense in that someone will always be awake. ;-) As long as there's some recognition of differences in government, economy, etc. One size won't fit all. | 05:14 |
| juliux | jono, it is better then without any election | 05:14 |
| yann2 | jono > a +1 for me | 05:14 |
| jono | ok cool | 05:15 |
| jono | so given the current text of the LoCo Council Proposal and the process I just outlined for getting an initial council board, are the CC happy with this? | 05:15 |
| mako | jono: i am | 05:15 |
| jsgotangco | yes | 05:15 |
| mako | jono: thanks for bringing this by first | 05:15 |
| nealmcb | jono: I'd suggest asking for feedback before proposing a list | 05:15 |
| MikeB | fine with me | 05:15 |
| mhz | jono: and the LoCo people are also happy, so everyone is hapy now | 05:16 |
| dholbach | I'm happy with it too; I'd maybe just add a note about how the process of loco approval between the CC and LC works out | 05:16 |
| juliux | jono, i also think it is a good idea to have a locoteams meeting about the loco council | 05:16 |
| jono | dholbach: I added a small bullet point to outline that the LC performs approval but the CC can stiull approve if required | 05:17 |
| jono | juliux: I agree | 05:17 |
| jsgotangco | i like the resource planning part though | 05:17 |
| jono | juliux: I will set up a meeting | 05:17 |
| jsgotangco | so i am in full support | 05:17 |
| juliux | jono, thxs | 05:17 |
| jono | other CC members? | 05:17 |
| jono | thoughts? | 05:17 |
| yann2 | +1 for juliux, would be nice to explain to locos what the council is and what it is for | 05:17 |
| jono | yann2: indeed :) | 05:17 |
| dholbach | in the MC, we send mails to the TB on membership approval to let them do the final ACK on it | 05:17 |
| dholbach | not sure if you intend something like this? | 05:17 |
| yann2 | well, I got thoughts, i explained them by mail to loco-contacts and by phone, and I think they may get solved :) | 05:18 |
| jono | dholbach: that could be useful | 05:18 |
| dholbach | all the other points are quite clear in the document | 05:18 |
| yann2 | so definitely a +1 for the loco council | 05:18 |
| jono | dholbach: so the LC perform analysis of the approval, but the CC finally ACK it | 05:18 |
| jono | dholbach: I think that makes sense | 05:18 |
| === pak33m [n=pak33m@199.26.150.250] has joined #ubuntu-meeting | ||
| juliux | i think we need more specs what the taks are for the conucl and what are the responsibilites for the council | 05:18 |
| dholbach | jono: that would be an idea: a short mail with links to the application would suffice, I think - what do other CC members think? | 05:18 |
| mako | jono: don't feel held to the text you have | 05:18 |
| mako | jono: if folks suggest changes that you think are reasonable, please go ahead | 05:19 |
| jono | mako: will do - I think the most recent suggestion by dholbach makes sense | 05:19 |
| jono | I will modify that | 05:19 |
| dholbach | great | 05:19 |
| mako | i don't want this tentative approval to do anything to prevent a better structure | 05:19 |
| jsgotangco | approvals can be definitely done via email once its available, and that way other council members can give ther opinion (those not present at the moment) | 05:19 |
| jono | how many more votes do we need to approve? | 05:19 |
| dholbach | I agree | 05:19 |
| yann2 | mako > i made propositions on the mailing list for a better structure | 05:19 |
| mako | jono: most of quorate meeting | 05:20 |
| yann2 | but it may take some more time to set up | 05:20 |
| yann2 | it's a very close but a bit different view of what the LC should be | 05:20 |
| OgMaciel | jono: a system like this: http://blogs.gnome.org/ovitters/2007/09/26/sneak-preview-of-mango/ ? | 05:20 |

| OgMaciel | :) | 05:21 |
| yann2 | basically I would love to see it have a legal existence, to be able to receive donations, and to have a process to spend the donations to help the locos | 05:21 |
| dholbach | if I counted correctly, mako, dholbach, MikeB and jsgotangco were in favor of it | 05:21 |
| dholbach | I'm not sure if elmo is with us? | 05:21 |
| jono | not sure | 05:21 |

| jsgotangco | but i am confident of the votes :) | 05:22 |

| jono | ok, I will consider this pretty much approved | 05:24 |
| jono | I will get the last bits sorted, and get a board recommended for the next meeting | 05:25 |
| mako | everyone here liked it, it will be approved when it's complete | 05:25 |
| jono | then we will be good to go :) | 05:25 |
| jono | I thank my CC overlords :) | 05:25 |
| dholbach | super | 05:25 |
| mako | awesome | 05:25 |
| dholbach | thanks jono | 05:25 |
| jono | right, I am off to do a call - any queries, mail me folks :) | 05:25 |
| elmo | sorry, was AFK | 05:25 |
| jsgotangco | thanks | 05:25 |

| pak33m | hooray for Florida and sunshine too | 05:28 |
| H264 | I met pak33m... seems like a worthy state :) | 05:28 |
| bordy | H264: be fair, any state with pak33m is a worthwhile place to be | 05:28 |
| nixternal | CC: I can actually say that I am totally impressed by the rapid growth that the Florida team has gone through in the past months. They have taken on quite a bit and ran right through it nicely. Definitely a functional and outstanding LoCo team | 05:28 |
| dholbach | the wiki pages look very good | 05:28 |
| bordy | thanks nixternal | 05:28 |
| dholbach | what are the projects in the past you are most proud of? which went best? | 05:29 |
| nixternal | even though bordy switched back to Gnome from KDE, I still kind of like him and the team :p | 05:29 |
| dholbach | how long does the team exist now? | 05:29 |
| bordy | Team started March 3rd I believe. Maybe the 1st. | 05:29 |
| bordy | early march | 05:29 |
| jsgotangco | "BBS updates" | 05:29 |
| jsgotangco | :) | 05:29 |
| statik | I joined the team in early march and have been surprised to see it grow to 98 members by now | 05:30 |
| bordy | I think I personally am most proud of helping with BarCamp, I helped set it up even though I ended up not going, but we had a strong presence there, with at least one presentation (statik would know better), and definitely got the word out on Ubuntu within the Central Florida corridor | 05:30 |
| === macogw [n=maco@unaffiliated/macogw] has joined #ubuntu-meeting | ||

| nixternal | lol | 05:30 |
| mako | your upcoming events page seems to be quite out of date | 05:30 |
| MikeB | Florida is a big state, what area are you active and have meetings? how are you expanding to the rest of the state | 05:30 |
| bordy | Mako: the person who was doing that left, and we are trying to restructure that | 05:30 |
| pak33m | we have a just started a projects page as well | 05:31 |
| bordy | MikeB: we are most active in central florida, with tampa/orlando area... have a few outliers in Tallahassee and Miami, but mostly central. | 05:31 |
| statik | I see people active in jacksonville, ft lauderdale, tampa, orlando, and the space coast | 05:31 |
| statik | because the state is so distributed it is hard to have in person meetups | 05:31 |
| bordy | it is a very long state | 05:31 |
| jsgotangco | i can imagine that | 05:31 |
| === rraphink [i=raphink@ubuntu/member/raphink] has joined #ubuntu-meeting | ||
| nixternal | bordy: global warming will fix that eventually :p | 05:32 |
| seisen | lol | 05:32 |
| jsgotangco | how did SFD turn out in the area | 05:33 |
| OgMaciel | hahaha | 05:33 |
| kjcole | bordy, I can sympathize. (Back when LoCo's were entire countries, I thought the word "local" to be a bit odd.) | 05:33 |
| bordy | jsgotangco: our gainesville members organized something at UF, but had very poor turnout from what I hear | 05:33 |
| dholbach | how many people show up to your IRC meetings? how do you organise things as a team? | 05:34 |
| mako | dholbach: dude! i was SO typing that question | 05:34 |
| nixternal | ya, one thing I learned, is never attempt to measure success by turnout....Chicago has seen its poor turnout as well | 05:34 |
| dholbach | mako: sorry for that :) | 05:34 |
| DoctorMO | It's dificult to include people from an entire state, even smaller ones like MA. we've taken to holding a once every 3 month meeting in central MA just for this problem | 05:34 |
| statik | the irc channel is pretty active all week, from 10-20 users normally | 05:35 |
| bordy | dholbach: our IRC meetings usually around 25ish, pak33m runs the meetings (because he's the hammer) | 05:35 |
| mako | sounds great | 05:35 |
| bordy | meetings pull in some of the other active members who tend not to idle with us | 05:35 |
| statik | I always skip the weekly meetings, but we get a lot of people on IRC during the week asking questions and getting assistance | 05:35 |
| mako | well i'd love to see more attempts at the IRL projects | 05:35 |
| mako | because they are very effective and help build community | 05:35 |
| mako | even if not all in the past have been successful | 05:35 |
| mako | but i'm thrilled with the online communit you've built and am happy with a +1 | 05:35 |
| mako | you should clean up the vents page.. even blank it | 05:36 |
| mako | it looks real | 05:36 |
| nixternal | groovy | 05:36 |
| jsgotangco | dude, they have a BBS! | 05:36 |
| mako | out of date :) | 05:36 |
| bordy | mako: thinking about dropping it altogether | 05:36 |
| nixternal | BBS? | 05:36 |
| nixternal | no way | 05:36 |
| bordy | oh yeah a bbs | 05:36 |
| bordy | one of our youngins made it for us | 05:36 |
| mako | bordy: that's better than keeping it out of date like that | 05:36 |
| DoctorMO | whatis BBS? | 05:36 |
| mako | bordy: it makes you look inactive | 05:36 |
| statik | mako: one of the brevard members is planning an in person meeting after the gutsy release, presenting to a couple of other user groups | 05:36 |
| bordy | mako: indeed. I think there are better ways of organizing it anyway | 05:36 |
| kjcole | DoctorMO: Bulletin Board System | 05:37 |
| macogw | i'm with DoctorMO....what's...oh ok | 05:37 |
| macogw | kjcole: you type too fast | 05:37 |
| nixternal | that is funny, a youngin made a BBS.... | 05:37 |
| statik | it's not a real BBS, it's just a server with SSH enabled | 05:37 |
| === nixternal reflects the BBS days now | ||
| === macd hugs vbbs | ||
| jsgotangco | yeah i just looked at the forum pages | 05:37 |
| statik | but it's neat that he set it up despite being so young | 05:37 |
| bordy | he teaches me stuff. I'm not ashamed. lol | 05:38 |

| statik | dholbach: I'd guess most folks are doing advocacy stuff, I'm trying to learn more about packaging (got several in-process right now) | 05:39 |
| dholbach | statik: that's great to hear - if you have questions or can get people interested in MOTU, let me know | 05:40 |
| dholbach | I'm happy with +1 too, seems some healthy action and good structure in the team | 05:40 |

| peanutb | Hello, My name is Paul. I am also known as peanutb or Peanut butter. I have been using Linux since Suse 9.0 and Ubuntu since Hory. Last year I joined the Ubuntu PNW team and I have helped plan all of the major events in Washington and some of the events in Oregon. I am currently trying to get the Ubuntu Washington loco up and kicking, and have also helped | 05:56 |
| peanutb | revive the local lug GSLUG. I have been the webmaster of http://pnw.ubuntu-us.org for a while now, and I am also a moderator on the mailing list. I have helped many people on ubuntu forums, #ubuntu, and over the 6 months or so. My wiki page is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PaulBartell . I was featured in an article in the Seattle PI last april, commenting | 05:56 |
| peanutb | on the Dell Ubuntu deal.. See my wiki page for a link. I apologise for the semi-out-datedness of my wikipage, as i wasent planning on showing up. An unexpected teacher strike changed that. | 05:56 |

I organized a little Ubucon at Google in Boulder last June and helped out with a Colorado education conference where Jim Hutchinson et al. presented an Ubuntu demo: https://wiki.edubuntu.org/TIEColorado. I've edited a bunch of wiki pages, authored the identity-selector spec and commented on others. Some examples are linked to from my wiki page. | 06:04 |
| nealmcb | I'm now working on another local Ubucon this fall, and continuing to get my feet wet with code contributions via bzr in Launchpad. I'd like to also use my enterprise Linux/Solaris experience from Internet2 and Bell Labs to contribute to the NetworkAuthentication efforts. | 06:04 |

| bordy | Hello all, my name is Chris Rohde, and I am a 25 year old junior accountant and full-time student at University of South Florida.

| bordy | I helped plan Orlando's first BarCamp, even though I was ultimately unable to attend (my stupid father in law wanted to turn 50 that day), and right now we are planning Gutsy release parties in Florida, and I mean to see to it that a few more Florida members are here in front of you in the next few months, as there are some outstanding people in there. | 06:26 |

| dendrobates | Hi I'm Rick Clark. I work for Canonical as the manager of the Ubuntu server team. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/dendrobates I'm fairly new to Ubuntu, but I am a long time Linux user. Currently my main community focus is growing the Server community particularly with people that work in corporate environments. I am as acitve as I can be in the Georgia US Loco, I can't always attend the IRC meetings, but I make an | 06:36 |
| dendrobates | effort to attend any face to face meetings. | 06:36 |

| dendrobates | Many of the things I work on are currently not public, but UDS planning, Hardy planning take up a large part of my time these days. My most recent sucess was getting re worked libpam-ldap and lib-nss-ldap packages in main, as well as ldap-auth-config and ldap-auth-client, which I created. | 06:36 |
| dholbach | How's the ubuntu server community shaping up? | 06:37 |
| === mathiaz cheers at dendrobates excellent work on getting ldap well supported in ubuntu. | ||
| dendrobates | It is starting to look better | 06:37 |
| dendrobates | we have a few good active people like nealmcb. | 06:38 |

| dendrobates | It is more challenging to attract people with the right knowledge to the server team. | 06:38 |
| dholbach | What could new contributors do in the server team? | 06:38 |
| === statik is curious what kind of help the server team needs | ||
| dendrobates | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ServerTeam/GettingInvolved | 06:39 |
| === nealmcb cheers for dendrobates service to the server team | ||
| dendrobates | we need testers badly | 06:39 |
| kjcole | make nice to the man with the inside track on things. ;-) | 06:40 |
| dendrobates | people who have access to server grase hardware. | 06:40 |
| kjcole | s/grase/grade/ | 06:40 |
| soren | I'm going to dinner, so I'll just throw in my two thumbs up for dendrobates as well. He's going a great job in managing the server team, and I trust he'll be a critical part of making Ubuntu Server rock even harder. | 06:40 |
| dendrobates | soren: thanks and cheers | 06:41 |
| soren | cheerio | 06:41 |
| mralphabet | dendrobates: Or hardware companies providing server grade hardware to test on for the server team ;) | 06:41 |
| dholbach | MikeB, Burgundavia: any more questions from you? | 06:41 |
| dendrobates | mralphabet: that is correct, but we charge for that, so it is tricky. | 06:41 |
| mralphabet | dendrobates: ahh | 06:41 |
| Burgundavia | the server team has been rocking, thanks dendrobates +1 from me | 06:41 |
| nealmcb | dendrobates: canonical charges for it? | 06:41 |
| statik | dendrobates: what qualifies as server grade hardware for the type of testing you need? currently the only thing listed on the testing page is AppArmor | 06:41 |
| MikeB | dholbach: +1 here | 06:42 |
| dendrobates | we want things to work, and then we want hw mfgs to pay us to certify | 06:42 |
| macd | dendrobates, you should contact me later, we have labs full of newer dell server (upto blades too) we can test with | 06:42 |
| dendrobates | macd: I will, thanks. | 06:42 |
| statik | dendrobates: actually, I can ask you later, don't want to get too offtopic | 06:42 |
| dholbach | +1 from me too; I met dendrobates personally, know how dedicated he is and know that he does good work | 06:42 |

| macogw | I'm Mackenzie Morgan, and I've been using Ubuntu for a year. One of my friends suggested Ubuntu when I said I was thinking about Mandriva. For 3/4 of the year, I'm a member of the DC LoCo and help with the events here, like Software Freedom Day and Takoma Park. I also help with installfests as a board member of my school's chapter of the ACM, and with demo-ing FOSS with the school's OSI chapter. The other 1/4 of the year, I'm home in Pittsb | 06:55 |
| macogw | urgh where I defenstrate my family's and friends' computers. I have a blog where I post news about Linux & FOSS and tips & tricks for making Ubuntu (and often Linux in general) do different things, http://ubuntulinuxtipstricks.blogspot.com (long URL, I know) and a Google Calendar where I put big events in the FOSS world (like UDS, release dates, etc).
