thumperOdd_Bloke: upgrading remotely is very slow though01:23
FujitsuOh my god I think my eyes just burnt out of my skull.01:44
FujitsuIt's so big and huge and yellow and OUCH.01:44
thumperFujitsu: the sun I take it?01:45
FujitsuNo, the new custom instructions on +filebug.01:45
thumperhaha01:46
* thumper goes to loook01:46
Fujitsuhttps://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cherrypy3/+filebug, for example.01:47
thumperhmm, large01:48
Odd_Blokethumper: Any idea how 'slow' slow is?01:48
thumperaccording to the bzr guys, it downloads the entire branch to your machine, upgrades there, then pushes the whole branch back up01:49
thumperso it depends01:49
Odd_BlokeOh, OK, that's probably not too bad.01:49
Odd_BlokeI'm sitting on a line that's normally limited by the 10/100 router that is between it and this machine. :p01:49
Fujitsuthumper: Even with bzr+ssh?01:50
thumperFujitsu: yup01:50
FujitsuEw.01:50
thumperFujitsu: there is a plan to do upgrades remotely, but right now it isn't implemented01:50
thumperFujitsu: it is a bzr smartserver thing01:50
FujitsuAhh.01:51
ScottKFujitsu: There are already multiple bugs on the yellow monstrosity.01:52
* ScottK is studying up on the email interface.01:52
FujitsuScottK: Oh, good.01:52
* Fujitsu hasn't quite caught up on everything yet.01:53
ScottKUnderstand.01:53
ScottKPersonally I more excited about getting multiple copies of bug reports now (one per team that's assigned the package plus one more if I'm bug contact).01:54
ScottKThe sweet smell of regression.01:54
FujitsuAh yes, I saw that bug.01:55
ScottKI'm still recovering from "I don't know whether that's something that's worth focussing on but I'll01:56
ScottKkeep investigating."01:56
Hobbseethumper: the filter boxes for bzr branch listings02:20
FujitsuThe filtering stuff is nice for sure, but the old functionality is now absent.02:21
* Fujitsu exploits some LP vulnerabilities to approve release nominations for things he really shouldn't be able to.02:22
FujitsuI only need to do it because the release nomination stuff is broken anyway, but still...02:23
HobbseeFujitsu: i don't even really remember what the old functionality was beyond the filter box02:25
* Hobbsee just now knows that she can't search, unless using a firefox page search, for every page02:25
FujitsuHobbsee: There was a textbox to search by name, and a dropdown to indicate whether you wanted branches that were Abandoned or not.02:25
HobbseeFujitsu: ahhh yes, that's right02:26
FujitsuThat reminds me, I need to file the bug requesting an explanation in the help tab about what `dormant' means in that context.02:27
Hobbseedormant == abandoned, or?02:28
FujitsuNo, I think it's based on how recently it was updated.02:29
Hobbseeah, right02:29
Hobbseewith using a metric like the cycle of the moon to decide, or something?02:30
ubotuNew bug: #187489 in launchpad-bazaar "Explain 'dormant' (as used in project branch listing) in help tab" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/18748902:40
thumperHobbsee: dormant is something that hasn't been touched in ages (6 months)03:06
thumperFujitsu: what old functionality is missing?03:06
Fujitsuthumper: The textbox to search by name.03:06
thumperFujitsu: there wasn't one03:06
FujitsuI thought there was.03:06
thumperFujitsu: there never has been for branches03:06
FujitsuHmm.03:06
thumperFujitsu: I want to add one, but at the same time get rid of the filtering boxes by providing a more intuitive way03:07
FujitsuSorting by clicking on column headings would be nice, but Launchpad seems to have something against that.03:07
FujitsuFor filtering... what better way is there?03:07
thumperFujitsu: that works (on branches at least) if there is less than a page of them03:07
FujitsuRight, it does that on a lot of pages.03:08
thumperFujitsu: by providing a free text area to say waht you want03:08
FujitsuHow would that handle the status filtering?03:08
thumperstatus:active03:08
FujitsuAhh.03:08
thumperor a short s:active, s:new03:09
* Fujitsu would like that for bugs too.03:09
thumperit is something that I've talked with mpt about before03:09
thumperbut it needs some buy-in first03:09
FujitsuThe advanced search page for bugs is so inefficient that I end up composing most advanced search URLs manually, so a search method where one could specify other fields in the simple search box would be great.03:10
FujitsuFor all searchable things.03:10
thumperyeah03:10
thumperI'm hoping that we can demonstrate it with branches, then go for site-wide behaviour03:11
FujitsuSounds good.03:11
* thumper crosses fingers03:11
mwh_i guess you have an advanced search form that creates the encoded "status:new author:thumper" for you, so people can learn the short forms03:12
FujitsuIt would be difficult for importance, status, and particularly milestones.03:12
thumpermwh_: I was thinking of a key at the bottom of the pages03:12
thumpermwh_: and emergant behaviour would take care of the rest03:12
mwh_hm, maybe03:13
FujitsuHaving the advanced form just be a frontend for that would also mean that we don't have the situation where sorting a bug listing erases the advanced options.03:13

FujitsuAloha: RF stands for rocketfuel, which is the Launchpad development trunk. 5562 is the revision that the fix appeared in.08:50
AlohaFujitsu, gotcha. whats the difference between a branch and a trunk?08:51

greg-gquick question (hopefully): There is someone who has started a redundant LoCo team page on Launchpad.  I am going to email him and ask him to "remove" it.  But I am actually not sure what to tell him to do.  Looking at the admin options for my team I don't see a remove or cancel or close team option.  What is the best course of action?23:16
Fujitsugreg-g: You'll need to ask a Launchpad administrator to remove the team. The best way to achieve that is at https://answers.launchpad.net/launchpad/+addquestion.23:17

mptand that's bug 5052523:23
greg-gok, from looking at bug 50525 and 29177: what happens when two teams are merged?  Does one of them "go away" (no longer in launchpad)?  ie: is that a good option for a situation where someone created a regional loco team (a sub region of a US State) but has since not done anything with it and has no members?23:30
Fujitsugreg-g: Probably best to remove the team in that case.23:33

FujitsuMerging would only be useful if it had memberships and related bugs and the like that are needed.23:33
