barry[TOPIC] action items15:04
MootBotNew Topic:  action items15:04
barry    * barry submitted bug reports for bzr-lpreview about the 1.2.6 milestone and `utilities/paste` path.  the sftp urls issue is because of the settings in `locations.conf`15:04
gmbI completely forgot to do that, so thanks barry :)15:04
barrygmb: np!  note that the sftp thing is due to the setting of your public_branch config15:05
schwukbarry: sorry!15:05
schwukme15:05
barryschwuk: np15:05
barry * (continued) barry to remind lp devs to do pre-impl calls (*done*)15:05
BjornT_me15:05
barrythere's nothing like an impending meeting to get action items done :)15:06
barry * barry to remind devs that sending a cover letter isn't enough to trigger a review (*done*)15:06
* bigjools noticed that barry only just did that :)15:06
barry * barry to prod mwh about gmb's 800-line limit patch (*done*)15:06
barry:)15:06
gmbCool.15:06
flacostebarry: this means that we shouldn't use public_branch anymore or that we should use bzr+ssh in it?15:06
barry * gmb to add lpreview to sourcecode and hack rf-setup to link it in15:06
gmbI appear to be made of fail.15:06
barryflacoste: that you should use bzr+ssh in it15:06
gmbI need to talk to someone about getting this into sourcecode.15:06
flacostebarry: what about pqm?15:06
gmbI have a hack in rocketfuel-setup, however.15:07
flacostebarry: iirc, that was for pqm submission which don't support bzr+ssh15:07
barryflacoste: i think i've been told that pqm can now handle bzr+ssh, but i haven't tried it myself15:07
bigjoolsthere are two separate configs15:07
bigjoolsone's for PQM and it has to be sftp15:07
flacosteactually, looking at my cache copy of PQM quey:15:08
flacosteMerge bzr+ssh://devpad.canonical.com/code/mwh/launchpad/code-import-worker-db sftp://devpad.canonical.com/code/rocketfuel/launchpad/devel15:08
flacosteso i guess PQM handles bzr+ssh just fine15:08
flacostenow15:08
* bigjools has this:15:08
bigjoolssubmit_branch = sftp://devpad.canonical.com/code/rocketfuel/launchpad/devel15:08
bigjoolspublic_branch = bzr+ssh://devpad.canonical.com/code/julian/launchpad15:08
salgadoI think we still need to use sftp for the submit branch15:08
flacostepublic_branch had to be sftp:// previously15:08
salgadoI recently tried using bzr+ssh there and it failed15:09
barrybigjools: yes, i have sftp in my submit_branch right now, but i think the asiapac folks told me pqm can handle bzr+ssh15:09
bigjoolssalgado: yes, I tried too15:09
barrysalgado, bigjools okay, that's good to know15:09
bigjoolsbarry: it doesn't work, at least for us15:09
barryso, submit_branch = sftp, public_branch = bzr+ssh15:09
bigjoolsthe review plugin uses public_branch15:09
barryagreed?15:09
bigjoolsyup15:10
barry[AGREED] submit_branch = sftp, public_branch = bzr+ssh15:10
MootBotAGREED received:  submit_branch = sftp, public_branch = bzr+ssh15:10
barry[ACTION] barry to email about submit_branch vs public_branch15:10
MootBotACTION received:  barry to email about submit_branch vs public_branch15:10
sinzuibarry I don't recalled the Antipodean's saing PQM like bzr+ssh15:10
barrysinzui: no?  i could be misremembering where i heard that.  but it doesn't work, so we'll just chalk that up to sleep deprivation15:11
* sinzui decides not to fix his spelling15:11
sinzuiHeard? or IRC?15:12
barrysinzui: irc15:12
sinzuiWe're we in the same meeting?15:12
* barry will scan his logs15:12
barrysinzui: could have been pvtmsg15:12
* sinzui refrains from fixing grammar15:12
barry(i.e. not in the meeting)15:12
barry[TOPIC] queue status15:13
MootBotNew Topic:  queue status15:13
barry7 pinkies15:13
barrybut many of those look like stub db reviews15:13
barryand jamesh's ongoing review branch15:14
barryschwuk: what's up with cprov's branch?15:14
barryschwuk: ?15:15
schwukbarry: nothing - It only hit my queue yesterday, I saw it this morning, and I'm reviewing it now.15:16
schwukOr if it did hit my queue before yesterday, I missed it15:16
barryschwuk: cool.  it must have been sitting around for a while before you got it.  thanks for reviewing it!15:16
* schwuk pokes irc notifications15:16
sinzuischwuk: I allocated it on Saturday15:17
cprovschwuk: thanks, you are my hero.15:17
barryany other queue comments?15:17
schwuksinzui: I must of missed it then - my bad15:17
* sinzui review period carried over to Saturday15:17
barryyes, we do still need to keep an eye on our PR queues15:17
intellectronicasinzui: it's a good idea to prod folks when you allocate reviews, because people are not used to this anymore15:17
sinzuiintellectronica: agreed15:17
barryintellectronica: is it still a good idea to do this allocation?15:18
schwukcprov: thank me *after* the review :)15:18
sinzuiI don't care for the allocation15:18
bigjoolsI check my queue once a day, in the morning15:19
barrysinzui: how can we better handle reviews the oncaller doesn't get to?15:19
sinzuiI think we pull from the general queue if no on-call review could get to it. large branches still require an agreement15:19
bacbarry: i think we should still do the allocation.  i always target trainees or reviewers who don't do on-call.15:19
intellectronicabarry: i think so. otherwise the general queue can end up being too long in the beginning of a shift, which is not really fair to the OCR15:20
schwukI do check my queue - it just always seem to be at the wrong time.15:20
barrybac: +1, intellectronica +115:20
=== danilo__ is now known as danilos
barrylet's keep doing it.  just remember to take a look at your queue once per day.  and don't feel bad about rejecting a branch (more on this later)15:21
barryany other queue status feedback?15:21
* sinzui sees the FIOS cables being laid outside his window15:21
* bigjools is jealous of sinzui15:21
bacas a reminder, i've written a little cronscript that will notify you of changes to *your* section of PendingReviews.  talk to me later if you'd like to use it.15:22
barrysinzui: <sniff>15:22
* sinzui has the lowest DSL right now.15:22
* bac will never see FIOS out in the woods15:22
barrybac: can you email lp-reviews about it?15:22
flacostebac: nice idea15:23
schwukbac: +115:23
bacbarry: sure.  i've announced it before but no one was interested.  <sniff>15:23
barrybac: ;}15:23
barrybac: sounds like there's interest now! :)15:24
barrybac: timing is everything15:24
* bac remembers why he isn't in marketing15:24
schwukbac: maybe you didn't announce it loudly enough :)15:24
barrymoving on?15:24
barry[TOPIC] mentoring update15:24
MootBotNew Topic:  mentoring update15:24
barryany updates?  mentors, start thinking about graduations at the end of this cycle, and also any new devs to bring on for next cycle15:25
barryno news is good news!15:26
bacallenap continues to do excellent reviews and will definitely be up at the end of the cycle.15:26
allenapcool :)15:26
barrybac: cool, allenap great to hear!15:26
* schwuk hopes this Friday's OCR will be busier than last weeks15:27
schwuk...or maybe everyone waited for sinzui...15:27
sinzuischwuk: the Foundations team laid it all on my shoulders15:27
* bigjools is happy to put a large Soyuz branch in schwuk's direction15:27
sinzuischwuk: I really did not complete my reviews until Saturday15:27
barryschwuk: careful what you wish for :)15:27
schwukbarry: true :)15:28
bigjoolsit's over the limit as well, and I can't pare it much more :)15:28
schwukbarry: not mentoring, but for the past two weeks jml hasn't updated the topic when he's gone 'off duty'15:28
schwukbigjools: we can have a chat about it after the meeting15:29
bigjoolsschwuk: sure thing15:29
barryschwuk: k.  you might send him a friendly reminder email15:29
schwukbarry: will do15:29
barryschwuk: thanks!15:29

barry[TOPIC] review process15:29
MootBotNew Topic:  review process15:29
barry * '''Removing the reject queue''' (allenap). On Monday, Barry put a15:30
barry review back on the reject queue, with a comment. I was on-call the15:30
barry next day, as was Danilo, but neither of us noticed it. In the end,15:30
barry Francis had to chase it up. I think it would work better if we put15:30
barry rejected reviews back on the general queue (with a comment), and drop15:30
barry the reject queue altogether.15:30
allenapAny objections?15:30

MootBotAGREED received:  get rid of the reject queue and just use the general queue with a comment, with rejections put at the top15:31
barry:)15:31
allenapDoes anyone know if this'll break pending-reviews?15:31
danilosallenap: it shouldn't, we've been doing that in the past15:32
flacostei don't think so15:32
allenapGreat, I'll do that then.15:32
barryallenap: do you want to communicate this to the team or shall i?15:32
allenapbarry: I'll do it once I've changed PR.15:33
barryallenap: awesome, thanks15:33
barry[ACTION] allenap to update PR and communicate to team new rejection policy15:33
MootBotACTION received:  allenap to update PR and communicate to team new rejection policy15:33
barrywell, that's it from me.  we have about 10 minutes left.  does anybody have any other issues to discuss, about the review process or anything else?15:34
bigjoolsone thing just quickly15:34
bigjoolssomething that came up in a review of gmb's branch was the pythonic vs c-style braces15:35
bigjoolsbarry: you preferred the c-style right?15:35
gmbbigjools: barry Pointed out the python S.O.P for that instance.15:35
sinzuia brace on a line by itself inflates the lines15:35
bigjoolsI just wanted to formalise something in the style guide15:36
bigjoolssinzui: but it reduces diff count later when changing it :)15:36
barrywell, i wouldn't put it as c-style vs. python-style, but ime, closing brace/paren/bracket on a line by itself is very common python idiom15:36
sinzui if ( this15:36
barrybigjools: right15:36
sinzui     or that15:37
sinzui    ):15:37
bigjoolsanyway, probably not a matter to discuss now, we can take it to the ML15:37
sinzuiI think we should be consistent with how braces close15:37
barrybigjools: that's also why we always include the comma on the last line, even though it isn't required15:37
gmbsinzui: +1.15:37
sinzuiI've grown to love the trailing comma15:37
bigjoolsbarry: my thoughts exactly15:37
gmbBut let's take it to the ML, 'cos from experience I feel there could be a bunfight about this15:38
barrysinzui: consistency = +1, bigjools do you want to take it to the ml?15:38
bigjoolswill do15:38
* barry breaks out his bikeshed paint15:38
* bac breaks out his buns15:38
barry[ACTION] bigjools to take brace closing policy to ml15:38
MootBotACTION received:  bigjools to take brace closing policy to ml15:38
* bigjools hides15:38
* gmb avoids that mental image15:38
bigjoolslol15:38
* barry was going to say his buns break out, but refrains from getting so crude15:39
sinzuigmb: my implode if he was left in a room with Kurt15:39
gmbE_PARSE15:39
sinzuis/my/might/15:39
gmbsinzui: I like kurt. He's like a wind up toy. You just have to see how far he'll go...15:40
bigjoolshe has limits?15:40
barrybigjools: my question exactly15:40
gmbbigjools: Not so far.15:40
* bigjools remembers the shower nozzle comment in #canonical15:40
gmbAh, happy times.15:40
bigjoolsare we done now? :)15:41
barrywe have 5 more minutes.  any more tush jokes?15:41
barryokay, i think we're done :)15:41
intellectronica5 minutes my arse!15:41

sinzuiI did follow up with mwhudson__ about his navlinks branch15:41
barrythanks everyone15:41
intellectronicacheers barry15:41
gmbTa barry.15:41
bigjoolsgrassy ass15:41
barrysinzui: sorry :)15:42
* bigjools got one in right at the end there15:42
barrysinzui: you're supposed to say "butt wait!  i have more!"15:42
* bigjools sees this one running for a while15:42
barrytake it to #canonical :)15:43
sinzuischwuk: mwhudson__ has secondary concerns about the branch. he doesn't have time to work on it now, but will circle back to it. It may require additional changes and review15:43
schwuksinzui: Do we leave it on the queue for now?15:44
sinzuiI'm tempted to move it back to work in progress. If he wants to land it without changes, then he may15:44
* sinzui moves branch15:46
