| ghostlines | hi all | 12:35 |

| persia | hey ghostlines | 12:35 |
| ghostlines | woops wrong place | 12:35 |
| ghostlines | wanted to ask some java programming questions | 12:35 |
| persia | Yeah, that's ##java | 12:36 |
| ghostlines | and I got to be identified to join ##java, bummer | 12:36 |
| persia | That's easy. Just /query nickserv identify ${some password} | 12:39 |
| persia | remember your password for later, and you can always be "ghostlines" | 12:39 |
| ttx | For those interested, I'll be giving a packaging training session about Java libraries in 20 minutes on #ubuntu-classroom | 12:41 |
| ghostlines | persia, thanks | 12:42 |

| darkwise | hi ttx, I have a question to begin java-packaging : can I begin with debian doc ? ubuntu has it's own one ? | 14:00 |
| ttx | darkwise: Debian doc is good. | 14:00 |
| darkwise | ok, thanks | 14:01 |
| ttx | The only thing we enforce is the use of default-java virtuals | 14:01 |
| ttx | build-depends: default-jdk | 14:01 |
| ttx | Depends: default-jre-headless | java2-runtime-headless | 14:01 |
| ttx | rather than naming a specific jvm | 14:02 |
| ttx | last time I lokked it was missing from the Debian java policy docs. | 14:02 |
| persia | It's missing on purpose. default-* in Debian isn't always safe for all packages. | 14:03 |
| persia | Something about the migration to openjdk still being underway. | 14:03 |
| persia | (err, all packages/all architectures). | 14:03 |
| ttx | persia: they still have default-java pointing to GCJ, but that shouldn't prevent them from using it | 14:03 |
| ttx | as long as we use default-jdk when it works both with GCJ and Openjdk :) | 14:04 |
| darkwise | nice, I think I'm in the correct channel :D | 14:05 |
| darkwise | thanks persia ttx | 14:05 |
| darkwise | do you suggest an easy exemple (package) to begin with ? | 14:05 |
| ttx | I have a few in store... let me see | 14:05 |
| persia | ttx, The problem is that some stuff doesn't work with gcj. | 14:06 |
| ttx | persia: yep. | 14:06 |
| persia | But for use, default-* should always work. I don't know the status of the ia64 port, but the rest ought be fairly clean. | 14:06 |
| persia | s/use/us/ | 14:06 |
| darkwise | persia, end even it's work, I think it's not with the same performance | 14:07 |
| persia | darkwise, You'd have to benchmark. For some workloads, for some architectures, JIT is faster, and for other workloads on other architectures precompiled is faster. | 14:08 |
| ttx | darkwise: I still have to review a list that I'm interested to see in Ubuntu | 14:08 |
| ttx | darkwise: Backport Util Concurrent 3.1, Axiom 1.2.8 ... | 14:08 |
| ttx | I just have to make sure they are as easy as I think they are. | 14:08 |
| darkwise | ok, thanks, I'll try | 14:09 |
| ttx | persia: meeting ? | 15:02 |
| persia | Is there? I thought I was still failing to announce a meeting. I'm happy to have one if you like. | 15:03 |
| ttx | persia: I don't have anything specific | 15:03 |
| persia | Then perhaps nobody will show up :) | 15:04 |
| persia | Ah, too late. | 15:04 |
| ttx | ah :) | 15:04 |
| * darkwise follow the meeting :) | 15:05 | |
| drubin | ttx: Thanks for the informative talk | 15:10 |
| ttx | drubin: you're welcome | 15:10 |
