| bryce | huh, all the X tasks for alpha-1 are done. https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+milestone/hardy-alpha-1 We're awesome | 20:32 |
| bryce | oh whoops, there's a couple blueprints for driver issues. hmm | 20:34 |
| tjaalton | users can propose those at will.. | 20:46 |
| tjaalton | too bad that specs can't be marked invalid by devs | 20:49 |
| bryce | do you think those are invalid? I think at best they're bug reports... | 20:59 |
| tjaalton | invalid as specs. there are almost 1800 specs listed, and majority of those should just be bug reports | 21:46 |
| bryce | true | 21:50 |
| tjaalton | ooh, they got removed :) | 22:00 |
| bryce | yup | 22:00 |
| bryce | I got friends ;-) | 22:01 |
| bryce | the specs are still there, just not listed for hardy | 22:01 |
| tjaalton | yeah | 22:02 |
| tjaalton | someone should have the guts to clean up the specs | 22:03 |
| bryce | agreed | 22:03 |
| bryce | I've been accumulating a list of obsolete/invalid X specs on wiki (X/Blueprints), in hopes one day to find someone who can/will go through and close them | 22:03 |
| tjaalton | I guess the reason why it has come to this is that the guidelines used to mention that "feature requests should be specs" | 22:04 |
| bryce | I asked mdz a while ago, but he didn't want to do it | 22:04 |
| * bryce nods | 22:04 | |
| tjaalton | it needs special powers.. | 22:05 |
| bryce | to be honest I think by not regularly weeding blueprints, it makes the whole system less useful | 22:10 |
| bryce | I wish it were categorized more, like bugs are, so there'd be an X-blueprints area that we could maintain | 22:11 |
| tjaalton | right | 22:13 |
| tjaalton | it's hopeless trying to find something useful, although the search works somewhat | 22:14 |
| tjaalton | sigh, why did I start going through nv bugs in upstream | 22:28 |
| bryce | heh | 22:29 |
| bryce | eh, so much for offering to help with the xorg website | 22:30 |
| tormod | hi | 22:31 |
| bryce | heya tormod :-) | 22:32 |
| tormod | bryce: xorg website? | 22:32 |
| bryce | daniels asked for help on wiki.x.org | 22:32 |
| tormod | on the xorg ML? | 22:32 |
| bryce | yeah | 22:32 |
| tormod | I asked them for permissions to remove spam some time ago , heard nothing | 22:33 |
| bryce | weird, because it seems the complaint was that the spam load was too high | 22:33 |
| tormod | kind of sucks to file bugs for every change you want to do on the front page also | 22:33 |
| bryce | yep | 22:33 |
| tormod | the xorg problem is that they don't want to receive help :) | 22:34 |
| bryce | seems that way | 22:34 |
| bryce | upstreams are weird | 22:34 |
| tormod | their issues with their server hardware is another farce | 22:35 |
| tormod | they've got money, servers, people who would like to help... | 22:35 |
| bryce | I like how they completely shut everything down for days when they have security issues | 22:36 |
| tormod | but things are just blocked on... nothing? | 22:36 |
| * bryce shrugs | 22:37 | |
| bryce | I figure it's just that daniels takes on too many tasks himself, and isn't comfortable sharing responsibiltiies or something | 22:38 |
| bryce | like you say, step 1 is you have to want to receive help | 22:38 |
| bryce | (step 2 is actually letting people help you) ;-) | 22:39 |
| tormod | I read the thread - yeah it ended up in "which wiki engine is better" discussion. They don't seem to get that "community" thing... | 22:41 |
| bryce | tormod, tjaalton, do either of you have code/processes for packaging x.org snapshots? | 22:45 |
| tormod | bryce: funny you ask, was working on it all night :) | 22:45 |
| bryce | kewl | 22:45 |
| tjaalton | bryce: nope | 22:45 |
| tormod | I've been trying to automate xorg git + debian git -> source deb | 22:46 |
| bryce | some of the ume guys are wanting snapshot packages of xserver git head so they can use the new xephyr stuff | 22:46 |
| bryce | cool, can I assist? | 22:46 |
| tormod | works nice for radonhd, but for some reason not for ati | 22:46 |
| tormod | I wanted to make builds for ati+atombios... | 22:46 |
| bryce | yeah this sounds like it could be quite useful for bleeding edge folks without packaging expertise | 22:47 |
| bryce | how could I help? | 22:47 |
| tormod | Take a look at the script attached to XorgOnTheEdge | 22:48 |
| bryce | ok | 22:48 |
| tormod | It potentially work with xorg-server as well. | 22:48 |
| tormod | but I am not fluent enough in git to get much further ATM. | 22:49 |
| tormod | Since they are removing xsfbs I have to incorporate make-orig-tar also. | 22:49 |
| bryce | hmm, I'm not spotting the link...? | 22:50 |
| tormod | wiki Attachments | 22:50 |
| bryce | oh whoa, I didn't know there was such a thing. cool thanks | 22:51 |
| tormod | bryce, the radeonhd packages on XorgOnTheEdge are built with the script, the extra manual steps (mostly adjustments for Gutsy) are documented in debian/README.ubuntu-dev | 23:03 |
