heno[TOPIC] QAPoll module status. Names and subdomains to be chosen for the qapoll websites. (nand)18:08
MootBotNew Topic:  QAPoll module status. Names and subdomains to be chosen for the qapoll websites. (nand)18:08
nandYes. I wanted to give you a small update on the qapoll module.18:09
henook, I also need to ask about domain names18:09
nandCurrently all the features discussed on the spec are implemented. There is a few rough edges to fix18:09
nandhttps://wiki.stgraber.org/UbuntuQA/QAPoll/TODO18:09
nandI think in around two weeks it will be ready for testing18:10
nandNow, as you pointed, we need to choose the name and domains  names18:10
nandwe have two parts : the part concerning bugs. I propose "Ubuntu most hated bugs" and the domain vote-bugs.ubuntu.com18:11
nandWhat do you think?18:11
henoso here is one problem:18:11
nandheno: yes?18:12
nanddomain names?18:12
henothe sysadmins don't think we should point qa.ubuntu.com directly at this server18:12
henobecause it's supposed to be an isolated box for this PHP code18:12
henowhich makes it more dificult to put things like bug graphs on qa.u.c later18:13
davmor2heno why not testing.ubuntu.com?18:13
henodavmor2: that sounds good18:13
henotesting.* vote-ideas.* and vote-bugs.* ?18:14
henoif we point those at that box then apache/drupal will do rh18:14
henothe right thing?18:15
davmor2sounds feasible and easy enough to remember :)18:15
nandit is ok with me18:15
stgraberheno: hmm, so qa.ubuntu.com won't point to our server ?18:15
nandsome htaccess work to do :)18:15
henowill it work technically?18:15
nandheno: Yes, we can18:16
stgraberheno: what happens to our QA websites page summary then (listing all the sub-websites) ?18:16
henostgraber: looks like that, yes18:16
henowe'll need to separate out the name space18:16
stgraberhmm, IIRC bdmurray bugstats are just python scripts generating static html pages right ?18:17
stgraberand we already have python on our box as some of my scripts need it (and a fresh python-launchpad-bugs)18:17
henothat's not the point though18:17
nandcan we go back to titles?18:18
henoit was agreed that the custom PHP code (our QA site) would go on a dedicated box with nothing else18:18
henoto limit any possible damage from an attack18:19
henowith 'testing' we can do iso.testing mozilla.testing, etc I guess18:20
=== \sh_away is now known as \sh
henook, I'll discuss this further with elmo18:23
henonand: did we cover what you wanted on titles?18:23
stgraberheno: eventually what we can do is have some sub-domains not pointing to the qawebsite server ?18:23
nandheno: not yet.18:24
stgraberheno: testing may not be appropriate for all the modules we have on the qawebsite ...18:24
stgraber(sorry I'm doing 3-4 things at the same time so can't follow the meeting as well as I would like to)18:24
henostgraber: indeed. can we do those as separate sub-domains, pointing at the server?18:24
henoor can we come up with something other than 'qa'?18:25
stgraberheno: it's just about the DNS, currently *.qa.ubuntu.com points to kumquat18:26
stgraberthey can easily make qa.ubuntu.com (main domain) to point to another18:26
stgraberor a sub-domain like bugstats.qa.ubuntu.com and make it points to a python powered server18:26
henoif we point all of qa.u.c at that server then we have to make an exception for each new project and page under qa right?18:27
stgraberI asked that "by default" all sub-domains point to the qawebsite server as it will let us create new team sub-website easily, but there is no problem to make some other custom subdomains18:27
stgraberyes, but I think that we are more likely to have new sub-domains to point to the qawebsite than to a python powered box, so the default setting is good in that way18:28
stgraberit's just about adding a line to a DNS zone (which would have to be done anyway be it on qa. or testing.)18:28
stgraberso as it's setup currently (btw, it now works !!!), blahblah.qa.ubuntu.com will point to the qawebsite, but you can ask a sysadmin to make it point to another server18:29
stgraberI don't think we absolutely need two different domains18:29
henook, let's discuss it further with the sysadmins after the meeting18:30
nandOK, quickly then to go on : I propose "Ubuntu most hated ideas" for the bug voting part, and "Ubuntu idea brainstorming" for the idea voting part. These names will be their public names and are to be easily identifiable. What do you think of the names?18:30

henomost prominent, annoying, painful18:31
davmor2bloody?18:31
liwpopular?18:31
liwnotorious?18:32
pedro_something which don't include violence ?18:32
henomost loved :)18:32

nandreally?18:32
henofavourite18:32
nand(English is not my mother tongue btw)18:32
henoit isn't for most of us18:32
davmor2bin-the-18:33
nand"most annoying bugs"?18:33
henotop 100 ubuntu bugs18:33
bdmurrayUbuntu Cockroaches18:33
* nand look at the dictionary...18:33
henothat's quite good :)18:33
pedro_that's bigger than a "bug" i like that18:34
nandbut is it a common word?18:34
* pedro_ singing la cucaracha18:34
nandeasily understandable by the average person?18:34
davmor2biggest-bug18:34
liwslugs?18:35
henoubuntu bug vote, bug ranking18:35
bdmurrayIsn't a cockroach a bug that is hard to kill?18:35
liwbdmurray, on the one hand, nuclear weapons won't kill it; but on the other, a shoe will18:35
henoit's a certain genus or some such18:35
bdmurrayright so I thought it fitted with the bug theme well18:36
nandI like "most annoying bug", it is quite neutral, and IMO bug is a word any non-first-english-tongue will know18:36
liw(for the record, I'm pretty happy with any name; I don't care about the color of this particular bikeshed)18:37
davmor2worst-bug18:37
henoI think we can go with that; this can be changed later18:37
nandyes.18:38
nandfor the idea counterpart, is it ok?18:38
nand"Ubuntu idea brainstorming"?18:38
henoi agree with liw though I would like to avoid hatred18:38
henonand: looks good18:38
liwheno, that would probably have been pedro, I guess (but no matter, I'm happy to avoid the hating)18:39

henobdmurray, ogasawara ^18:45

henoand speaking of LP:18:46
heno[TOPIC] LP bug reporting guidelines18:46
MootBotNew Topic:  LP bug reporting guidelines18:46
henohow do we take advantage of this feature? [WWW] https://help.launchpad.net/BugReportingGuidelines What additional features would be useful? (more granularity)18:46
bdmurrayI wanted to see an example of it in action so e-mailed launchpad-users18:47
henoI need to find out who the 'owner' of ubuntu is18:47
henoMatt or Mark I guess18:47
henoI guess we should link to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs18:48
bdmurrayMost probably but the wiki page makes it sound like multiple dialogs are presented18:49
bdmurrayIf that is the case it might be useful to have a guideline about good summaries, descriptions etc18:49
bdmurrayIt'd be helpful if there was a place to test it also18:50
henoindeed. let's ping mrevell if nothing else turns up18:50
stgraberbdmurray: I only see one "Bug reporting guidelines:" box on LP ...18:50
henoany other business?18:50
bdmurraystgraber: where is that?18:51
nandyes : which one do you prefer : http://thorwil.wordpress.com/2008/01/04/ubuntu-brainstorm-6/ ?18:51
stgraberbdmurray: Edit details when you are a project owner18:51
henoon the qa website proj?18:51
henoI like 3 and 4, nand18:52
nandheno: Don't you think it is over-stylized?18:53
bdmurraystgraber: found it thanks18:53
nandI like it much, but I don't know if it will make a good logo18:53
pedro_nand: i like the 4, it look more tangoish18:53
henoyes, I like some on http://thorwil.wordpress.com/2008/01/01/ubuntu-brainstorm-4/ better18:53
heno2b for example18:54
henoor 3b18:54
nandheno: I required the ubuntu branding as the logo would be shown on the "image links" displayed on non-ubuntu contexts18:54
nandthe image links feature : example at http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qapoll/ideas/item/2/promote18:55
henothen how about "Ubuntu bug focus"?18:55
bdmurraystgraber: could we add some bug guidelines to the ubuntu-qa-website for testing?18:55
heno(as much as I hate to return to the bikeshed :)18:55
stgraberbdmurray: sure18:55
nandheno: the one at the total right?18:55
bdmurraystgraber: the home page for the project should change too right?18:56
nand(no problem, I wanted some feedback on it :) )18:56

persiaAn example of the summarised minutes is available from https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/Meetings/2007-12-21 (which is not a MootBot interesting link)20:23

stgraberpersia: http://pastebin.com/m6579bb9f can you send that to the list ?20:36
persiastgraber: Just send it to ubuntu-motu@ and it will get accepted by the moderators.  Might take a couple hours, but I think giving you credit is more important that posting an update immediately, given the weighty issues discussed :)20:37
