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