[08:01] * stgraber waves [08:01] * nellery is here [08:01] yodle yodle yodle [08:01] agenda? [08:01] hi stgraber and nellery :) [08:02] nixternal, persia, soren: who wants to chair? [08:02] * persia waves [08:02] * persia doesn't today [08:02] ok, I understand - I do it :-) [08:02] #startmeeting [08:02] Meeting started at 02:02. The chair is dholbach. [08:02] Commands Available: [TOPIC], [IDEA], [ACTION], [AGREED], [LINK], [VOTE] [08:02] [LINK] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/Council/Meeting [08:02] LINK received: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/Council/Meeting [08:02] nixternal: agenda ^ :-) [08:03] looking at it now :) [08:03] vorian, AnAnt: you guys around? [08:03] First up is AnAnt, who can't make it today. [08:03] YUS! [08:03] ok great, let's take vorian first then [08:03] vorian, So, You put MOTU/Core-Dev as your application type. Which are you seeking today? [08:04] [TOPIC] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StephenStalcup/CoreDeveloperApplication [08:04] New Topic: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StephenStalcup/CoreDeveloperApplication [08:04] persia: MOTU [08:04] OK. So we'll ignore the application for now, and just do a MOTU renewal? [08:05] Yes, if that's okay? [08:05] That's fine. The other option was to do a application for core-dev recommendation :) [08:05] why is it everytime we do a meeting that has to do with membership lp is dead for me? [08:05] nixternal: what do yo umean? [08:05] So, for MOTU renewal, the thing I always want to know is: What do you plan to work on if renewed? [08:06] takes forever to load up, it is up now [08:07] persia: I plan on continuing to work on KDE related packaging with the Kubuntu team, including most of the KDE stack - and several neet aps in universe. I also would like to rejoin sponsors [08:07] All areas where you've done great work in the past :) [08:08] Care to explain the reasoning behind jettisoning MOTU originally, and what you plan on doing to prevent that sort of thing from happening again? [08:08] thanks :) [08:08] * nixternal had to be the ass :) [08:08] nixternal: fair question [08:08] * dholbach learned the word "jettison" today [08:08] plus I wanted to beat persia to the question :) [08:08] dholbach: I used it pretty much every day aboard ship in the navy :) === Zic is now known as Guest83106 [08:10] I was extremely frustrated with the way the TB meeting went down, frustrated with my responses, the timing of it, the whole thing. Then there were some other areas in real life that were causing me to be stressed out as well. === Guest83106 is now known as Zic [08:11] I almost immediatley regretted doing it, and have had a few months to ponder what I could have done differently [08:11] has it been that long already? [08:11] which is just to take a step back, and chill out [08:11] yeah :/ [08:12] vorian: how many areas in Ubuntu do you see right now that are frustrating to you? [08:12] personally, since I get to work with you every day, I think that was honestly the best thing you could have done in regards to chilling out, as you have become more all around in the community as well [08:12] dholbach: none right now. [08:12] vorian, I can't believe that. *Something* must frustrate you. [08:13] he has the art of zen mastered now [08:13] Otherwise, there's no reason to make it better :) [08:13] well, yes [08:13] how about the idiot from openSUSE leaving a shite comment on my blog today? that has to frustrate you :p [08:13] Comments like a SuSE troll made on nixternals blog frustrate me [08:13] ghahahahah [08:13] holy shite [08:13] * vorian finds a link [08:13] vorian: is there anything else other than chilling out that you'd recommend to other people who get into a similar position as you did? [08:14] dholbach: yes, absolutely [08:14] heh, i thought i was the only one who read that :) [08:14] take a moment and private message a good friend or two [08:14] reach out. It's what I really should have done. [08:15] dholbach, persia: yes, actually there are a few Kubuntu things that frustrate me - we seem to have slipped a bit in qa [08:16] that makes sense, especially as we're a very distributed team and have different cultures, context goes missing on IRC, etc. etc. - it's very easy to take things wrong on a bad day [08:16] it's a topic on out "to do" list for Karmic - and I intend to help out on the QA side of things [08:16] for me, getting back to the development roots has helped curve a current session of burnout I was starting to face...I still love the community, but I had to step back from being so entwined [08:16] dholbach: agreed [08:16] w00t, vorian and I rocking the QA [08:16] vorian, So, to get back to the last question you were asking in confirmation procedures: can you share any details on some of the pitfalls involved in changing between different versions of libdb? [08:17] s/asking/asked/ [08:17] I have one more apport todo first then it is off to the races with qa and hopefully talking to ara about stuff and polling them for some assistance to get everything kickstarted [08:18] * nixternal feels good cop bad cop [08:19] persia: if the transition is not done correctly existing data could be lost. [08:20] Or corrupted, but yes. Thanks :) [08:20] Is there a way to check if a given package will suffer that fate? [08:21] yes, if 'transation' is in the source code [08:21] * persia is done with questions [08:21] nixternal, soren: any more questions? [08:22] dholbach: not from me, I have seen vorian grow since his little break, which really wasn't a break in all honestly...he has rebounded very well from the prior situation and I am so happy that he stuck around [08:22] * dholbach is done too [08:23] soren? :) [08:23] nixternal: i'm happy to have lurked around, helping too :) [08:23] Sorry, my phone rang. [08:23] * soren catches up. [08:24] Nah, I think you guys covered it pretty well. [08:24] [VOTE] Shall Stephen Stalcup re-join the MOTU team?

[08:25] [TOPIC] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NickEllery/MOTUApplication [08:25] New Topic: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NickEllery/MOTUApplication [08:25] hiya nellery - still around? [08:25] yup, I'm here [08:26] how are you doing? everything alright? [08:26] congrats and welcome back skooter [08:26] I'm pretty good, a bit nervous of course [08:26] :) [08:27] nellery: your application lists nhandler and me as endorsements... is there anybody else you worked primarily with? [08:27] nellery, You mention a couple things in "Things I could do better" that worry me: specifically "Ensuring that there no errors in uploads by going out of my way to double and triple check " and "Not to be too overconfident that an upload is perfect as it may blind me from errors ". How do you intend to protect yourself against these issues without a sponsor? [08:28] dholbach: primarily in the karmic cycle, it has been you two who have done most of my sponsorship [08:28] I did get in touch with another sponsor, but they didn't provide any endorsements [08:30] persia: Errors have been nearly non-existant for the past while. I intend to keep it this way by not rushing, staying within my confidence level, asking questions when necessary, and as mentioned, double checking for small errors [08:31] nellery, So these are things you're already doing better? [08:31] congrate vorian [08:32] persia: essentially, and I believe that it will only get even better [08:32] nellery: I was going to ask about *rushing* as it seems to be a common pitfull among many these days...one thing I would like to propose is that you do not stick within your confidence level and that you in fact step out of it from time-to-time, it will help you grow not only yourself, but also your level of confidence within yourself [08:33] nellery, One of your sponsors comments that much of your work has been with merges. Do you have a couple examples of bugfixes you've written that you thought were good? [08:33] in times of going outside the box, it is fine to grab support along the way, a helping hand is always good when building up confidence [08:34] nixternal: I absolutely agree with that, but I also believe that without a sponsor, that should not be done over extravagently [08:34] tis why I said a bit of hand holding is fine [08:35] nellery: there's nothing wrong with saying "can somebody take a look at this?" on IRC :-) [08:35] <\sh> 4 eyes are better than 2 eyes...even old maintainers do mistakes...and one reviewer more is helping you, me, everybody doing this kind of work [08:35] i sponsored nellery on a few plasmoids, he did a very solid job [08:35] a lot of us MOTU ask others to look over our packages from time-to-time before uploading...it is actually a good thing to do, because after sticking your nose in the same thing all of the time, you start to become lazy or you start missing stuff, especially little thing [08:35] s [08:35] nellery: coming back to the question I asked earlier... is there many people (maybe on IRC) that you work with? is kde and science something you'd like to work on in the future or are you going stay "all over the place"? :) [08:36] dholbach: personally I wish to stay "all over the place" within universe [08:37] without any specific areas I restrict myself to [08:38] ... and that with so many interesting packages in main! :-) [08:39] for instance, on bug 384331 looks like config.sub and config.guess made it into the debdiff...just to point out that even as a MOTU, stepping out and guidance are good, as nhandler did in this situation...I can't tell you how many times I have missed either this sort of thing or the big one that always hit me were translation files ending up in it...and like \sh said, 4 yes are better than 2 at time [08:39] Launchpad bug 384331 in klogic "Please merge klogic 1.63-5 (universe) from Debian unstable (main)" [Wishlist,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/384331 [08:39] persia: sorry missed your question. Back in Jaunty I noticed that some plasmoids were not renamed during the transition, and opened bug #329627 to fix this [08:39] Launchpad bug 329627 in plasma-widget-tvprogramme "Some unchanged plasmoid source/binary package names" [Undecided,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/329627 [08:40] nixternal: yes, and without a sponsor, guidance outside of bug reports is definetly something I will look to whenever necessary [08:40] nellery, Any bugfixes involving code changes? [08:40] groovy [08:40] persia: for the most part I'm not much a coder [08:41] getting better, but still not good enough to make those sort of fixes [08:42] persia, geser, soren, nixternal: any more questions? [08:42] I am good [08:43] I got him to say exactly what I wanted..I should be a cop or something, I am that darn good :p [08:43] nellery, What classes of differences from Debian should be preserved? [08:43] nixternal: you probably better shouldn't :) [08:43] my laptop says it is 5:52pm [08:43] brb [08:44] <\sh> nixternal's a Bad Boy ;) [08:44] had to hop on my other machine [08:44] laptop locked up [08:45] I'm good too. [08:45] persia: what do you mean by "classes of differences"? [08:45] Sorry about being so slow to respond. My laptop seems to be swapping like crazy. [08:46] * soren switches to another machine [08:46] hahaha, 2 machines down [08:46] nellery, You say "As a sponsor, I would ensure that everything that should be forwarded is forwarded." when talking about forwarding patches to Debian. What types of patches should be forwarded, and what type not forwarded? [08:47] there we go, back to the laptp [08:49] persia: patches which fix bugs which affect both distributions as well as those which add features such as desktop files, watch files, updated dependencies [08:50] patches which are not Ubuntu specific [08:50] Well, some of the things you just mentioned often are Ubuntu-specific. Any idea which might be? [08:51] nellery: how do you determine if a bug exists in Debian too and is not due to some other changes in Ubuntu? [08:51] persia: actually 2 of them could be :) [08:52] nixternal, No hints. I know you are qualified to be a MOTU :) [08:52] lol [08:52] persia: updated dependencies may affect only one distribution, for example if the upstream releases are different versions, or that upstream version is only one or the other distribution [08:53] nellery, Right. Also, Ubuntu sometimes has special dependencies (like for LPintegration). [08:53] And the other one? [08:56] a desktop file may be Ubuntu specific if it uses category not used in Debian [08:56] booyah [08:57] Well, no, because XDG categories are supposed to apply to both, but it was .desktop files. [08:57] (or different names for the app, etc. - right :-)) [08:57] or, di...damn dholbach beat me to it [08:57] (or different defaults for where to show, or whether to show by default) [08:57] OK. I'm done. [08:58] yay, one step closer to taking out the trash and going to bed :) [08:58] geser, soren: any more questions? [08:58] no [08:59] Nope.

[09:01] [TOPIC] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/stgraber/CoreDeveloperApplication [09:01] New Topic: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/stgraber/CoreDeveloperApplication [09:01] congrats and welcome nellery...in regards to "sponsoring" I echo persia [09:01] stgraber: still around? :) [09:01] * stgraber wakes up [09:01] thanks! persia: that's absolutely something I will put much effort into, and you should expect to see change [09:02] :-) [09:02] stgraber: how are you doing? [09:02] dholbach: tired but fine :) [09:02] nellery, Take extra care, because if you're not much of a coder, it's easy to be confused when reviewing a code patch. [09:02] stgraber: Sheesh, what time is it at your place now? 4 AM or something? [09:02] survived UDS without Ubuflu? [09:02] 4am yeah [09:02] * ogra looks up [09:02] thank you all.. time for some sleep [09:02] dholbach: strangely yes :) first time it happens [09:02] nellery: good night! [09:02] great :) [09:03] stgraber: so what kind of packages are you interested in working on specifically? [09:03] well, other than the packages I already have upload right for, I'd mainly be working on education packages for edubuntu and bug fixing in the server area [09:04] \o/ [09:04] stgraber, What measures do you think should be taken to make the processes clearer? [09:04] seein soren cheer, /me sees virtualized LTSP ahead [09:05] :) [09:05] oh no, who let ogra in here? [09:05] * ogra pokes nixternal in the ribs :) [09:06] * nixternal uploaded edubuntu-desktop with kde* only in the meta [09:06] persia: recently, it was the SRU process that wasn't really clear to a few of my co-workers. It was well described on the wiki but without the "nag someone from the team" part, the bug can stay on launchpad for a while :) [09:06] heh [09:06] it should be KDE desktop, since all of the apps are :p [09:06] stgraber, Right. What should be done to improve that? [09:07] persia: probably having more motu-sru members would help or document the steps to take if for example you don't get an answer in your sru bug report after x weeks [09:08] stgraber, How do you expect archive-reorganisation to affect Edubuntu? [09:09] well, I hope it'll make it a lot easier to get new contributors, though in the meantime we're looking at also having a few packages from universe in Edubuntu (that's in the TB's agenda for next meeting IIRC) [09:10] currently it's kind of hard to find new contributors as if they want direct upload rights they need to be core developers [09:10] stgraber: how many packages (roughly) are in edubuntu right now (that are not ubuntu+ltsp+friends)? [09:10] dholbach: ltsp is actually no longer part of edubuntu :) let me find some numbers [09:10] oh really? [09:10] enough packages to make the addon cd full :) [09:10] well just over half full [09:10] yeah, it's on Ubuntu alternate since Hardy (IIRC) [09:11] stgraber, you applied for MOTU apparently in large part towads seeking your per-package uploader permissions. Have you found you worked in many other areas as well, or did you feel that you were mostly concentrated on the packages for which you had per-package upload rights? [09:12] dholbach, missed the memo, eh ? :) [09:12] persia: mostly on the packages for which I have the ACL and for a few others but that are also in main [09:12] persia: good question... stgraber: I was just about to ask what kind of server stuff you'd like to work on [09:12] ogra: well... I can't read ALL the memos :) [09:13] wget http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/edubuntu/releases/jaunty/release/edubuntu-9.04-addon-i386.list -O - -q | grep deb$ | wc -l [09:13] 228 [09:13] that's for the edubuntu addon cd [09:13] LTSP relies on a good bunch of server packages ... to enhance or improve it working on these packages will be required [09:14] (and i wasnt actually joking when i said virtualized LTSP as an option of vm builder for example ;) ) [09:14] well, LTSP's dependencies for a start (dhcp, tftp, inetd, ...) if needed and also basically everything else as my company does infrastructure work and so we touch basically every bit of the server stuff :) [09:14] ... or LTSP in the clouds ;) [09:14] currently playing with OpenVZ and libvirt for example [09:14] ogra: I was about to say just that. [09:14] ogra: (the cloud thing) [09:15] well, I'm currently sponsoring highvoltage to get ltsp-cluster in universe [09:15] stgraber, One of your sponsors mentions that you'll be expected to be working with the Edubuntu seeds. How are they organised? [09:15] soren, i know, i read your mind ... just wanted to be faster ;) [09:15] ogra: :) [09:15] so we'll have the loadbalancer and control center part for LTSP that could the be used for LTSP in the cloud [09:15] stgraber: is there anything that you'd be too scared to touch in main? [09:18] persia: we currently have one for each of our meta packages (preschool/primary/secondary/tertiary) then the ones for the edu packages for both kde and gnome IIRC, also one for the edubuntu content server (moodle basically) [09:19] though that's on my list of stuff to do soon with the Edubuntu project becoming a lot more active recently, haven't had a chance to look at the details yet [09:21] dholbach: sure :) I'm not going to play with kernel, X, ... unless I get that review by someone else first as these are things I'm not used to touch (although for X I'm getting to know it quite well recently) and so don't know the details and decisions which were taken in the past [09:21] persia, soren, geser, nixternal: more questions? [09:21] there's always the difference between having the right to do something and actually doing it without asking :) [09:22] Not really. [09:22] * soren things this is an easy one :) [09:22] thinks, even. [09:22] Nothing else from me. [09:22] none here [09:22] stgraber: for someone applying as core-dev I've expected to see some sponsored uploads to main, but your LP page doesn't show any. any explanations? [09:23] geser, he already has limited main uploads rights for various packages ... i (and laserjosk) did sponsor him in intrepid [09:23] *laserjock [09:24] geser: hmm, I already have the rights for most of my uploads, though I recently got libXcb uploaded and compiz (though part of another fix so not mentioned as the uploader) [09:26] geser: any more questions? [09:26] I assumed that extending the upload rights to full core-dev implies a broader interested in some other packages which should (hopefully) be also seen in sponsored uploads in this area [09:26] indeed, that'd be edubuntu in my case [09:26] edubuntu wasn't active until last UDS [09:26] well, it was but not as active as we'd like it to be [09:27] dholbach: done [09:27] [VOTE] Shall Stéphane Graber be recommended for core-dev membership?

[16:13] one of our high-priority specs is the switch to building as i586 [16:13] IIRC we said we'd do test rebuilds after alpha 2 ... [16:13] infinity poked me about that yesterday in order to take a snapshot [16:14] oh, he's on it already? good [16:15] other than that I don't think I have anything else to report - anything from others to us? [16:16] cjwatson: I see bug 364616 on steve's list for Server [16:16] Launchpad bug 364616 in ubuntu-release-notes "Wrong iscsistart path in iscsi hook" [Undecided,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/364616 [16:17] mm, that probably ought to become ours [16:17] ok [16:17] * ttx hugs cjwatson [16:17] cjwatson, has the work to make grub 'quiet' fallen anywhere? [16:17] it'll be handled as part of our installer/iscsi specification (which is part "fix all the bugs", part development) [16:17] apw: part of the foundations-karmic-grub2 spec, as yet incompletely drafted [16:17] cjwatson, thanks [16:18] cjwatson: should I assign that bug to anyone in particular? [16:18] slangasek: if you need an assignee for it right now, it's me; I'm not sure whether that spec is going to stay with me [16:19] don't need one per se, but it's good to have; assigned [16:19] is that still a realistic target for jaunty SRU, btw? [16:20] I think so [16:20] ok [16:20] people won't be able to do installations directly, but still [16:20] * slangasek nods [16:20] moving on [16:20] [TOPIC] QA team [16:20] New Topic: QA team [16:21] (thanks, cjwatson) [16:21] hi [16:21] heno, fader, sbeattie: hello [16:21] * fader waves. [16:21] fader: HW testing? [16:21] http://people.ubuntu.com/~fader/hw-testing/current.html [16:21] LINK received: http://people.ubuntu.com/~fader/hw-testing/current.html [16:21] Bug 384861 is interfering with testing the lab servers (it's not initializing Broadcom ethernet cards so the PXE install can't proceed) [16:21] Launchpad bug 384861 in linux "Broadcom NetXtreme II (BCM5708) not detected by installer [karmic]" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/384861 [16:21] That's hitting a large number of systems so it's a fairly big blocker for us on server testing [16:21] There are a few other systems that haven't reported results that I'm looking into but that is the only big issue I've seen so far. [16:22] apw: can you make sure that bug gets priority attention from the kernel team? [16:22] that bug has some proposed patches, and they are out for review on the kernel list [16:22] it seems to be unassigned, so i will take it and drive those in [16:22] thanks [16:22] [ACTION] apw to drive bug #384861 [16:22]
