kirklandif you have ideas for tips, please get them to nijaba16:06

ivoksdrbd; debian is interested in dkms (http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/debian-ha-maintainers/2009-July/000126.html); we have a dkms enabled package in PPA16:18
RoAkSoAxkirkland, Fixed Heartbeat and now it is working, and I'm doing further testing16:18

mathiazkirkland: looks good so far :)16:19
kirklandmathiaz: cool, that sounds great16:19
kirklandajmitch: PHP is always a big merge16:19
kirklandsoren: zul: ?16:19
ajmitchkirkland: I know, I'm trying to reduce that :)16:20
kirklandajmitch: that would be a huge help16:20
zulkirkland: i triaged alot of bugs amongst other things16:20

kirkland[TOPIC] Open Discussion16:23
MootBotNew Topic:  Open Discussion16:23
kirklandmathiaz: i gather you're back now?\16:23
kirklandmathiaz: i think we've covered the agenda16:23
mathiazkirkland: yes16:23
mathiazkirkland: great16:23
zulso I have something16:23
kirklandzul: hit me16:23
zulso ajmitch and a bunch of users have been asking for php 5.3 in karmic ajmitch has more information about what needs to be done so Ill let him take it from here16:24
ajmitchright16:24
ajmitchas you probably saw, it's been uploaded to debian experimental for some testing16:25
ajmitch5.3 introduces a few big changes, and probably some bugs, such as the suhosin patch not updated for 5.3 yet16:25
ajmitchcurrently we're down to just 1 patch difference from debian, aside from the changes to debian/{rules,control}, but it's undecided whether we should stick with 5.2.10 in karmic, or go with 5.316:26
ajmitchanyone have any preferences on that? :)16:27
kirklandajmitch: is 5.3 GA upstream at php.net?16:28
ivoksi always considered non-LTS releases as a playground for testing new stuff, so i'd support going for 5.316:28
mathiazajmitch: why should we move to 5.3?16:28
kirklandajmitch: or is it a beta/dev release?16:28
zuli dont have a problem with it the only thing is the suhosin patch is not applied16:28
zulyet16:28
ajmitchit's now a stable release on php.net16:29
mathiazzul: what would be the timeframe to get the suhosin patch updated to 5.3?16:29
ajmitchmathiaz: because of the number of new features that have been added that people are already asking for16:29
kirklandajmitch: okay, that's a good thing;  as mathiaz said, what's the motivation for 5.3?16:29
zulmathiaz: dunno16:29
mathiazis it fair to say that shipping without suhosin would be a feature regression?16:29
ajmitchapart from the super-awesome ones like goto, it adds namespaces, closures, late static bindings, plus a few pecl extensions moved into the core16:30
zulmathiaz: yes imho16:30
mathiazajmitch: ok - so code that would run on jaunty would not work on karmic if we move to 5.3?16:30
ajmitchiirc we enable the core part of suhosin & have the rest available as an extension at the moment16:30
ajmitchmathiaz: it ought to work on karmic, they've deprecated but not removed things in 5.316:31
mathiazajmitch: ok. I'm unfamiliar with the suhosin patch16:31
ajmitchI haven't seen what's needed to be changed for the suhosin patch, it's not a small patch16:31
mathiazajmitch: thus my naive questions - does the suhosin patch introduce new construct?16:32
mathiazajmitch: or is it just performance improvements?16:32
ajmitchsuhosin patch is for security & restricts PHP some more, catches some bugs16:32
ajmitchI haven't seen a mention on the debian list of when it may be added back in16:32
mathiazajmitch: would some scripts break if the suhosin patch is not applied?16:33
ajmitchNo, they shouldn't16:33
mathiazjdstrand: mdeslaur: what's your opinion on shipping php without the suhosin patch?16:33
ajmitchI believe that the patch would likely be enabled again in debian by feature freeze, though couldn't guarantee that16:34
mathiazajmitch: hm ok.16:35
kirklandajmitch: i wonder if a php ppa might be the best place for it until that point?16:35
kirklandajmitch: for instance, i'm providing daily upstream builds of qemu, qemu-kvm, and libvirt for testing16:35
ajmitchkirkland: sounds logical16:35
kirklandajmitch: i'm using those to refine the packaging, and do some testing16:35
mathiazright - that seems like a reasonable plan to my - 5.3 in a PPA16:36
kirklandajmitch: without forcing that on someone16:36
jdstrandit would be disappointing to see it go16:36
kirklandajmitch: my goal being to migrate from there into karmic as soon as its ready16:36
mathiazuntil the suhosin patch is reenabled in which case it can be pushed to karmic16:36
ajmitchI was going to throw it in my PPA first, as I said, it's still in experimental16:36
kirklandajmitch: right16:36
mathiazso the plan would be to wait for the suhosin patch to be renenabled and if done so before FF push 5.3 in karmic?16:37
ajmitchok16:37
mathiazis there an ubuntu-php-team ?16:38
ajmitchnot that I saw, which is why i'm trying to start doing stuff in the debian team instead16:39
mathiazajmitch: right - that's a great way to collaborate16:39
mathiazI was also thinking about setting up a team PPA16:39
ajmitchI know at least one of the debian maintainers is active on launchpad in looking at PHP bugs16:40
ivokswould it be possible to provide packages for older ubuntu releases?16:40
mathiazto push the 5.3 package in the team PPA and ask people to test it there16:40
mathiazivoks: with a PPA - sure16:40
ivoksof course, with a ppa16:40
ajmitchivoks: it should be, though some other things may need to be backported16:40
mathiazivoks: or using -backports16:40
mdeslaurI wouldn't want to shit php without the suhosin patch...16:40
mdeslaurs/shit/ship/16:40
jdstrandmathiaz: re feature regression> http://www.hardened-php.net/suhosin/a_feature_list.html lists the stuff that would be lost in dropping the patch16:40
mathiazmdeslaur: jdstrand: great. thanks for your input.16:41
mathiazmdeslaur: jdstrand: the plan is to wait for the suhosin patch to be ported to 5.3 before uploading to karmic16:41
mdeslaurwhoa...freudian slip on my part there16:42
ajmitchmdeslaur: understandable ;)16:42
ajmitchright, I'll look at getting an ubuntu team setup for the PPA16:43
mathiazajmitch: awesome - thanks:)16:43
ivoksthat would be great, indeed16:43
mathiazand then announce it on the planet16:44
mathiazIIRC it worked well for the ubuntu-ha team16:44
mathiazivoks: ^^??16:44
ajmitchthat'd require me to actually setup a blog, what a shocking thought16:44
ivoksyeah... we had more members of ubuntu-ha than i hoped for16:45
ivoksajmitch: abuse ubuntu-server blog :D16:45
mathiazivoks: and you're using multiple PPAs to handle package?16:45
ivoksyes16:45
ivoksone for stable drbd for all ubuntu versions16:45
ivoksand one development ppa for all other stuff16:45
mathiazivoks: awesome! may be the ubuntu-php team could be modeled after that in the medium-term16:46
ivokssure16:46
ivoksi'm just not aware how to create access restrictions to ppas16:47
ivoksand who was right to upload to ppa anyway? all members of the team or just administrators?16:47
mathiazivoks: right - that's a good questions16:47
mathiazivoks: I don't know the answer yet.16:47
mathiazivoks: I think it would be great to use a LP mailing list to gather users and anounce new package upload to be tested16:48
mathiazivoks: but still restrict who can upload to the PPAs.16:48
ivokswe annonunced it on ubuntu-ha ml16:48
mathiazivoks: right - and who can subscribe to the ubuntu-ha ml?16:49
ivoksmembers of ubuntu-ha16:49
mathiazivoks: right - who could also upload to the ubuntu-ha PPAs?16:49
RoAkSoAxI think only administrators can upload to PPA16:50
ivoksthat's what i don't know... i hope that not all members are able to upload to ppa16:50
ivoksi really hope only admins can do that :)16:50
ajmitchI think all members, from what I recall?16:50
ajmitch#launchpad would know16:50
mathiazivoks: I don't know either - #launchpad is the best place to ask16:50
ivoksright16:50
dholbachRoAkSoAx: I think all members16:50
ivoksthat could be an issue :)16:51
mathiazdholbach: do you have examples of other teams that handle that correctly?16:51
RoAkSoAxgonna ask on #launchpad16:51
dholbachmathiaz: correctly? just create a team that has just uploaders in it, create a PPA for them and you're done :)16:52
mathiazdholbach: right - that's what I though16:52
mathiazcreate an ubuntu-{ha,php}-maintainers team16:52
mathiazand an ubuntu-{ha,php} team16:52
mathiazthe former with PPAs, the latter with mailing lists.16:53
ivokswe should really fix the design then16:53
ivoksACL's on PPA16:53
RoAkSoAxyep16:54
RoAkSoAxgonna create the ubuntu-ha-maintainers team then16:54
kirklandokay, guys, are we wrapping this up?16:54
* nealmcb1 returns from a two-week vacation in the wilds of Utah and Colorado and slowly gets back in the routine....16:54
ajmitchkirkland: I hope so, it's nearly 4AM :)16:55
kirklandi think we have a consensus, php in a ppa, get suhosin, then merge 5.3 into karmic16:55
kirklandajmitch: heh16:55

bdmurraythanks for doing that!17:05
andresmujicathe main topics discussed last time were UDS related topics ( process for new bugsquad members, mentorship, kernel bug handling, ubuntu-bug usage, symptom bug based reporting) and the LP improvements17:05
mrooneygood morning bugsquad :)17:05

MootBotCommands Available: [TOPIC], [IDEA], [ACTION], [AGREED], [LINK], [VOTE]17:08
andresmujicawe stil have some topics here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BugSquad/Meeting17:08
andresmujica[TOPIC] LoCo Bug Jams -- bcurtiswx17:09
MootBotNew Topic:  LoCo Bug Jams -- bcurtiswx17:09
hggdhhum. bcurtiswx is MIA...17:10
andresmujicathere's the Ubuntu Global Jam now.. so i'm supposing we would particpate there...17:10
hggdhyes indeed.17:11
hggdhFor those of us living in a LoCo area, we should try to be present17:11
andresmujicashould we make some previous irc classrooms for that??17:11
hggdhbdmurray, ^^?17:12
=== thekorn_ is now known as thekorn
bdmurrayI'm not sure I understand the question17:12
hggdhI guess is should we try to schedule a classroom for triaging before the GBJ?17:13
andresmujicai mean, maybe we can give a classroom session of bug triaging in order to help newcomers with the event..17:13
bdmurrayYes, that sounds like a great idea17:13
andresmujicaanyone wants to volunteer?17:14
hggdhI can help, but I am not sure I will have the time to do it alone17:15
hggdh(not right now)17:15
andresmujicahmm how much time is left before the UGJ?17:15
charlie-tca__I can't really do it at this time17:16
andresmujicahmm 2th -4th October...17:16
andresmujicawe've got some time.. so we can wait.. maybe in August / September we can do something about it... don't you think?17:17
hggdhOctober... so we could try to get it done in September (to be near, and get the new triagers still fresh on memory)17:17
hggdhheh17:17
andresmujicayeap!17:18
andresmujicaok..17:18
andresmujicai'll try to make one in spanish..17:18
andresmujicaok. so let's check the other topic.17:18
andresmujica[TOPIC] BugSquad new members orientation -- tlcoffee17:19
MootBotNew Topic:  BugSquad new members orientation -- tlcoffee17:19
hggdhanother one MIA...17:20
andresmujicai don't think tlcoffe is around here.. however this is like the mentorship program for new bugsquad members..17:20
hggdhI have been doing something like that, in an un-official way, for quite some time17:20
hggdhI think some new triagers get, er, shy on asking questions in the open, and would rather use PVT17:21
andresmujica:)17:21
hggdhMy view is we should try, whenever possible, to have the doubts answered in the open, but we should make clear we do accept PVT questions17:22
mrooneyis this related at all to bugcontrol specialization, where a new bugsquad member might be interested in something specific and we want to hook them up with the right mentor?17:22
hggdhmrooney, it may well be.17:23
bdmurraypedro is looking at setting up a mentoring program17:23
bdmurrayI believe that the two are related yes17:23
hggdhhum. Since pedro is out right now, I propose we ask him for an update later17:24
andresmujicaok we'll wait for news about it.. i believe is really important17:24
hggdhI agree. I remember, when I started, I was stepping on eggs17:25
andresmujicaok.17:25
mrooneysorry, gdm likes to randomly restart in karmic :)17:26
andresmujicathe next topic we've got is17:26
andresmujica[TOPIC] Triaging versus Bug Fixing/Closing in Karmic -- Andrew Starr17:26
MootBotNew Topic:  Triaging versus Bug Fixing/Closing in Karmic -- Andrew Starr17:26
hggdhand I had a real bad experience with a developer17:26
andresmujicamrooney: yeapp. i´m trying to debug that but is hard..17:26
andresmujicahggdh: sorry.. .. go on..17:27
hggdhWell. Andrew is also missing. May I propose that we ask not only for a topic, but also for a short explanation on what is intended?17:27
bdmurraythat sounds fair to me17:28
andresmujicayeap.. that one i don't have a clue.. it can as long as we want to...17:28
andresmujicait can be.. sorry17:28
hggdhOK. Let's just pass it on, and update the wiki. I have no clue on what Andrew intended here17:28
andresmujica[TOPIC] Open Discussions17:29
MootBotNew Topic:  Open Discussions17:29
hggdhI have one17:29
hggdhbdmurray, sent out an email (https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-bugsquad/2009-July/001505.html) asking for help on apport hools17:29
hggdhhooks17:29
hggdhThis is something that most of us would be able to do17:29
hggdhI would really like to see more apport hook coverage. I have started with an Evolution one, currently under review17:30
hggdhI also wrote some small hacks to work on existing apport bugs, with help from a list Brian provided me17:31
hggdhAnyone volunteers?17:31
* mrooney looks17:31
mrooneyI could try to help with a few, is the idea to talk to a dev and figure out what information is valuable?17:32
mrooneywhat is the process for figuring out what to include17:32
bdmurrayor looking at upstream bugtrackers, existing bug reports17:32
bdmurrayfor the compiz one I wrote I looked at the DebuggingCompiz page17:32
mrooneyI see, ok, makes sense17:32
hggdhfor the record, the hacks and the proposed Evo hook is at bug 39162317:33
ubottuLaunchpad bug 391623 in evolution "apport hook for Evolution" [Wishlist,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/39162317:33
bdmurrayI think sbeattie did the same thing for gnome-power-manager and a script included with that  package17:33
mrooneyokay cool, I'll  set a goal for 1 a week17:33
hggdhone thing Brian and I were working on is on sanitising backtraces, but this depends on an enhancement on apport. This should be considered when applicable17:34
sbeattiemrooney: I looked at the debugging page for gnome-power-manager as well as the debian bug reporting script in /usr/share/bug/gnome-power-manager/script17:35
bdmurrayOne could also look in '/usr/share/bug/' for information to include for a specific package17:35
hggdhmrooney, also, the hook will have to be officially proposed, and will go through a review by the maintainers17:36
mrooneymakes sense!17:38
andresmujicaok.17:38
andresmujicaanything else we want to discuss?17:38
mrooneyI had a quick one17:39
mrooneythere was a bug filed for eeebotu in #ubuntu-bugs-announce that it shouldn't show Invalid bugs, I wondered what a consensus was on that17:39
mrooneyit was discussed briefly in that channel17:39
mrooneyI always thought seeing newly Invalidated bugs was interesting personally, sometimes people did it by mistake17:39
hggdhyes, Ampelbein filed it.17:39
charlie-tca__I find seeing them useful myself17:40
bdmurrayI don't hang out in the channel much but agree17:40
hggdhbut what a bout Triaged ones?17:40
charlie-tca__Triaged to Invalid?17:40
mrooneyno I think hggdh meant newly filed bugs immediately set to triaged17:40
hggdhdo triaged (but otherwise new) bugs appear on -announce?17:41
mrooneyyeah they do17:41
mrooneythe only stipulation is that they are newly filed17:41
hggdhshould we keep them in the list?17:41
mrooneyI could see that hiding Triaged bugs makes sense17:41
hggdh+117:41
bdmurrayI think those are more important for bug control to look at to ensure they are addressed17:42
bdmurrayhowever maybe that should happen in a different channel17:42
mrooneyyeah that should ideally be any bug set to triaged17:42
mrooneya newly filed bug that is triaged is probably done so by a developer as a workflow item17:42
hggdhhum. What about different channels with different bug status?17:42
bdmurrayah, yes17:42
bdmurrayI think that would be really useful17:43
mrooneyyeah that would be cool but is a larger topic, I wanted to make eeebotu look at all touched bugs and allow for that but never had the time17:43
andresmujica+117:43
bdmurrayat least for Confirmed, Triaged, High and Critical17:43
hggdhyes17:43
mrooneyyeah that would be cool definiteily17:44
hggdhmrooney, let's work on it?17:44
mrooneyI don't think it would be too much work, sounds good17:44
mrooneyhggdh: I'll work with you on deploying a new eeebotu with the two bugs addressed as well as that17:44
hggdhmrooney, roger wilco17:44
andresmujicagreat!17:45
andresmujicaso if there's nothing else...17:46
bdmurrayIs anybody using the firefox extension?17:46
hggdhbdmurray, I am17:46
micahgthe LP improvements?17:46
bdmurrayYeah17:46
hggdhbut I cannot get the teams icons to show17:47
* micahg is17:47
andresmujicawhich one.. ?  i've missed that one...17:47
bdmurrayI was planning on making a larger announcement soon17:47
bdmurrayhggdh: team icons were a launchpad bug, now its a script bug17:47
bdmurraybut I plan on fixing that this week then announce if it is working well17:47
hggdhheh17:47
hggdhand update the package?17:47
bdmurray"it" being the extension as a whole17:47
bdmurrayyes17:47
hggdhcool17:48

hggdhandresmujica, see https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-qa/2009-June/000488.html17:51
bdmurrayI've made a firefox extension available as a ppa package that collects all of the greasemonkey scripts to allow for easier updates17:51
andresmujicacool... gonna test it..17:51
andresmujicaok,17:52
mrooneyokay, I must head to work, I'll check the logs to read the rest, bye for now everyone :)17:52

smbSome detail to it18:32
smbThe old Hardy proposed seems to be MIA, so it will need the security+proposed upload to get into live again18:32
smbThe next Jaunty proposed scares the sru team as it contains the last upstram stable import18:32
smbI hope it gets accepted anyways18:33
smbAt least it runs for me on desktop, laptop and netbook18:33
smbThat's all so far18:34
sbeattiesmb: is the new hardy-proposed kernel intended to make it into 8.04.3?18:34
bjfI'm gong to have a large wad of imx51 patches that will go into Jaunty SRU, smb and I have discussed this and they will go onto a topic branch18:34
smbsbeattie, It would be good if it did. Not sure about the timeings for that (8.04.3 still open?)18:34
sbeattie8.04.3 is supposed to come out this week, but the daily isos were being generatd off of the old -proposed kernel.18:35
apwdiary says thrusday for that18:35
smbapw, Last one18:35
apwslipped to 7/918:35
apwsbeattie, is that -proposed at .54 or the -security kernel at .5518:36
smbsbeattie, So at least the new proposed should get into updates soon as the current security is based on the old updates kernel and the old proposed did not include security18:36
smbapw, yes the old proposed was .5418:37
smbsecurity was .55 but based on .5318:37

jjohansenunion mounts?18:42
apwthey are looking dubious, seems there are some reworks in there18:43
apw(vf union mounts, making 2.6.31 timeframe)18:43
apwwe need to discuss our fallback position, which may well be using fuse for the release18:43
apwthat can be discussed nearer the release18:44
ckingw/o any risk?18:44
apwcking, ?18:44
ckingif there is no working fallback, it's cutting it close to the release. Or maybe I misunderstood18:45
apwno we are using fuse now as our fill in for live cd's18:45
apwso no work would be needed to use that for final.  we need to confirm its acceptable of course18:45
ckingOK. Thanks - I understand now.18:46
apwi'll add union mounts to the release status18:46
apwthere is also devtmpfs which is looking very interesting for recovery18:46

Seveasexcellent. Consider the meeting started then21:09
Seveasfirst candidate is shane_fagan, please introduce yourself to us Shane21:09
shane_faganIm kind of a little helper in a lot of areas. I admin http://ubuntu-ie.org/ . Im the leader of the Irish translations team for about 2 months now and im trying to get some interest in that. I fixed a few bugs in ubuntu's documentation recently, I test new releases of ubuntu (im using 9.10 at the moment), a little bit of advocacy and answer questions on launchpad and IRC if they have any problems there that I can help with21:09
shane_fagan. I also help out with zeitgeist that will more than likely be included in ubuntu at some stage, I do documentation for zeitgeist and I sorted out one cool feature for developers, that lists out the development work they were doing recently. So I do a lot in many different areas both upstream and in ubuntu itself.21:09
Seveasother candidates: please prepare a 3-line introduction to paste in the channel when it is your turn.21:10

forumsmatthewI see lots of translation work and your testimonials look good21:18
MTecknologyDdorda has been very helpful with #ubuntu-drupal. He's helped us with styles for RTL languages and has been helping in the channel and on launchpad. He's already been very helpful doing things I can't. The thing I've liked most about him is his interest in promoting FOSS.21:18
SeveasDdorda, your translation activity, which I would consider an important part of your application only really started about a month ago with some sporadic things before that21:19
Seveasand as you say your drupal involvement is fairly recent too21:19
forumsmatthewtell us about the sub distribution you mention on your wiki page21:19
popeybrb21:19
SeveasThus I'm inclined to go for -1, as I like to see more sustained contributions21:19
MTecknologySeveas: Ddorda has been helping for a few months now21:20

Ddordabasted on the Islamic one21:20
PriceySorry for rubbish reliability.21:21
PriceyDdorda: What are your aims for that?21:21
Ddordathat one is going to be for the religion Jewish, cause most of them are real poor, and they need many specific application21:21
forumsmatthewSeveas, I do see translations going back to Sept 2008, although you are right that they became far more regular and common just a month ago21:21
Ddordawell, i thought of the idea making it. it's a real new project so it doesn;t have anything yet21:21
SeveasDdorda, just curious, which applications would that be? I know that the christian edition includes bible software but I know of no equivalents for a jewish distro.21:22
PriceyDdorda: You'd probably do best to have a real reasnoing for putting huge work into maintaining a project like that.21:22
MTecknologySeveas: https://translations.edge.launchpad.net/~ddorda/+translations?start=100&batch=5021:22

SeveasWe need to keep track of time. Can I please ask for a vote?21:27
Ddordaforumsmatthew: i have joing about a year and half ago, but the forums crashed21:27

Ddordaso it's not my real joining date21:28

popeyagreed, -121:28
stgraberI'd also like seeing you in a few months with even more contributions to Ubuntu, so -1 for me too21:28

Pricey(and then what is required of it)21:29
Seveasok. Ddorda, as we said, you are doing good work, but we are also looking for documented sustained contributions. So please keep on going and come back in a few months21:29

dholbachhi sabdfl22:03
sabdflhola dholbach22:03
dholbachmako just texted me and said he'd be a bit late22:03
dholbachdidn't hear back from mdke though22:03
dholbachTechnoViking can't make it for sure22:03
nhandlerdholbach: Just out of curiosity, how is the CC handling mako's expired membership?22:03
dholbachnhandler: that's one of the things we're going to talk about in just a bit22:04
nhandlerGreat! I didn't see it on the agenda, which is why I asked22:04
dholbachsabdfl: shall we dive right into it and I send Mako the log once he turns up or shall we wait? (I guess it might take another 15m for him - he's in Mexico somewhere)22:05
sabdfllet's get going22:05
dholbach#startmeeting22:05
MootBotMeeting started at 16:05. The chair is dholbach.22:05
MootBotCommands Available: [TOPIC], [IDEA], [ACTION], [AGREED], [LINK], [VOTE]22:05
sladenmako was just disappearing off to lunch 45minutes ago, so (hopefully) should be back22:05
dholbachso there's a bunch of topics on the agenda, I don't think we get around to doing all of them, we should cut them down now22:06
dholbachthe most pressing one to keep the CC running is re-staffing it22:06
dholbachI guess the Wiki licensing can wait until the next meeting22:06
dholbachthe CoC review we can do if there's still time22:07
dholbachsabdfl: does that sound reasonable?22:07
sladendholbach: that is kind of important, why is it not on the Agenda?22:07
dholbachsladen: I did a review together with mako, somehow nobody put it up there22:07
dholbachsladen: but if we do it in 2 weeks that should be fine too22:08
sabdflKarmic.22:08
* dholbach hugs sabdfl22:08
dholbachsabdfl: does that sound OK? agenda-wise?22:08
sabdfldholbach: X crashed22:09
sabdflrestaffing first22:09
dholbachok22:09
dholbach[TOPIC] restaffing the CC22:09
MootBotNew Topic:  restaffing the CC22:09
dholbachthe last time we were complete we were around 8 people22:09
dholbachand decisions and meetings were a lot more fluent and regular :)22:09
dholbachwe have 4 people left on the CC: https://launchpad.net/~communitycouncil/+members22:10
dholbachand four slots open22:10
dholbachsabdfl: how do you want us to handle it? I think you have a few recommendations already22:11
sabdflin the past, we've aimed to stagger elections22:11
sabdflbut that just makes the admin pile up22:12
sabdfli think it would be better to run a big election every year, or two22:12
dholbachyes, it took me a bit to realise that :)22:12
sabdflthat way, the whole community will be aware of it22:12
sabdflwe can run a proper nomination process, i'll put forward candidates and we vote22:12
sabdflwhat do you think?22:12
dholbachsabdfl: nomination process would be "everybody send an email to mark@ubuntu" and "we vote" means ~ubuntumembers polls?22:13
sabdfli would ask that you handle the collation, but yes22:13
czajkowskitotally new here, but could you put forward candidates say at a uds, and vote after that giving people time  to meet them or find out about them post an event like uds22:13
czajkowskithen do the emailing bit22:14
sabdfla good idea, yes22:14
dholbachczajkowski: interesting you mention that - we did that for one of the last MC elections and while they were not real "platforms" people at least set up wiki pages and said what they thought was important to them in the community and so on22:14
sabdflnot everyone comes to UDS, but it's useful nonetheless22:14
sladensounds fine, anything that is capable of quickly reboosting the numbers.  I vaguely remember last time that here was some confusion about whether people were expected to self-nominate, be proposed by others, or be invited by Mark22:14
sabdflsladen: any of the above22:14
czajkowskithat way introducing new people and not necessarily the same pople so you get to meet the people behind the group22:14
dholbachso at least gave some insight and especially in a community of hundreds of ~ubuntumembers where you don't know everybody that makes sense22:15
sabdflwe have always had amazing folks on the CC22:15
popeytough act to follow :S22:15
sabdflbut the organisation of candidates and votes has been poor22:15
nhandlersabdfl: I think part of that is lack of publicizing votes in the past22:15
dholbachnhandler: the results were available in LP, weren't they?22:16
nhandlerMost of the votes for other councils get an email sent out and possibly a blog post, that is all22:16
sabdfli think things like the regional membership boards give us a deeper sense of the talent pool for governance22:16
sabdflas do the various delegated councils22:16
nhandlerdholbach: The results are available, but based on those numbers, not many people are voting22:16
nhandlerI think that is due to them not being aware that a vote is going on22:16
sabdfli think having a vote of more candidates than seats would make for more charged elections22:16
dholbachnhandler: ah, now I see what you mean22:16
sabdflok, so coming to the present challenge...22:17
sabdflif we want a CC of 8, does that mean we need 12 candidates?22:17
nelleryis voting based on yes or no for each person or each person has a single vote?22:17
nhandlersabdfl: That might be a bit too many to vote on in LP. Maybe the CC could narrow down the number of candidates after the nomination period is over22:18
sabdflnellery: we could do single transferable vote, for eg22:18
sabdflfor a confirmation vote, you vote on each candidate separately22:19
nhandlerOne thing we do not get with these elections are testimonials from other members like we get when people go for membership and stuff like that22:19
sabdflif you're electing a group, then STV makes more sense22:19
czajkowskinhandler: that seems to work for the gnome foundation board22:20
sabdflso, 12 candidates. when do we want to run the vote? i'm assuming everyone who's on will stand again, and those who just expired will too22:20
dholbachI guess we need 2 weeks time for nominations, 2 weeks time for asking people to put up their "platforms" or wiki pages which talk a bit about them 1 week for announce, 2 weeks for voting22:21
dholbach... or something22:21
sabdflok, +1. anyone want different timing?22:22
nellerywith these "platforms" just be wiki pages?22:22
dholbach(and a week in between to probably shortlist)22:22
nhandlerAre all nominated people going to be put on the LP poll?22:22
nhandlerAh, that answers my question dholbach22:22
czajkowskiis there an ubuntu event on soon enough we could tie it in with , so more people will vote?22:22
dholbachI think it would make sense to use LP's "mail team members" feature for that :-)22:23
dholbachTATAAAA! :-)22:23
popeyhah22:23
sladensabdfl: so you're proposing to have all of the slots stand, not just the empty ones?22:23
nhandlerdholbach: Who would be notified? All ubuntumembers?22:23
dholbachnhandler: yes, everybody who can vote :)22:23
heartsmagicis it started?22:24
nhandlerdholbach: I also think *several* blog posts should be put on the Planet announcing the vote (and an email to one of the -announce lists as well)22:24
sabdflsladen: yes, if we are going to converge, and elect a group in one sot, we should do that22:24
dholbachnhandler: that sounds good to me22:24
sladensabdfl: for a period of 24 months?22:25
nhandlerAlso, you need to leave time for the CC to confirm all nominees are willing to serve on the CC22:25
=== ebel_ is now known as ebel
dholbachnhandler: yes22:25
sabdflsladen: 12 or 24, what do you think would be better?22:26
dholbachsabdfl: is there a default expiry set in LP right now?22:26
sabdflyes, i think it's one year22:27
nhandlerIt looks more like 2 years based on the dates sabdfl22:27
nelleryI think one would keep the members more fresh22:28
dholbach2 years sounds fine to me (with the expiry of the current members)22:28
heartsmagicsorry for disturbing you but i am a member candidate, do i have to do someting for this meeting?22:28
dholbachheartsmagic: the CC doesn't do membership approval anymore - please head to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Membership22:28
sabdflheartsmagic: nice nick, but no, this is the CC not a membership board22:28
popeyheartsmagic: i think you missed the emea membership earlier22:28
sladenmy personal preference would be 24 months  staggered 4 + 4  (same amount of hassle as 12 months x 8)22:28
sabdflsladen: twice the hassle22:28
sladenboth are twice the hassle of 24 months x8, yes22:29
sabdflok, i'm going to XO this one - dholbach, will you announce the schedule as discussed above?22:29
dholbachso to recap? 2 weeks time for nominations, some time for shortlisting, a week of confirmation, 2 weeks time for asking people to put up their "platforms" or wiki pages which talk a bit about them 1 week for announce, 2 weeks for voting, 24 months term length22:29
heartsmagicmissed it? when22:29
sabdfl+122:29
popeyheartsmagic: 20:00UTC22:29
dholbach1 from me too22:29

sabdflCoC22:31
dholbachok22:31
dholbach[TOPIC] Code of Conduct Review22:31
MootBotNew Topic:  Code of Conduct Review22:31
dholbachso while Mako was in Berlin, we spent some hours revamping the Code of Conduct and fixing bugs that were reported with it22:31
dholbachit now should be more general22:32
dholbachthe merge proposal is up here: https://code.edge.launchpad.net/~mako/ubuntu-codeofconduct/proposed-revision/+merge/734122:32
dholbachThis is the list of open bugs: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-codeofconduct22:32
dholbachI didn't receive too many comments about the proposal yet22:32
dholbachwe also added a rationale for all of the changes: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/%7Emako/ubuntu-codeofconduct/proposed-revision/annotate/head%3A/rationale.txt22:33
heartsmagicgood night everybody22:34
=== Richie is now known as YDdraigGoch
* mako waves22:34
dholbachhey mako22:34
makosorry i'm late. i was delayed getting in from the airport22:35
dholbachmako: no worries :)22:36
ogramako !22:36
ograthe busy man22:37
sabdfli'm still reading the rationale and changes22:37
sabdflbut this is very good so far22:37
* dholbach high-fives mako22:37
makothe diff is too big too be useful. the wdiff is better but still pretty big22:40
makomostly because of the you/we changes. hence the rationale document. if there are substantive changes not in the rationale document, that's a bug in the rationale. we tried to be comprehensive22:41
sabdfl...translations around a release...22:42
sabdflshould that be during, rather than around?22:43
dholbachprobably "around release time"22:43
makoyeah22:43
dholbachI think I introduced that mistake - mako: can you fix it?22:43
makosure, no problem22:44
dholbachsuper22:45
dholbachbeuno: wdiff plugin for loggerhead? :-)22:46
sladenI don't thing I am in a position to take in and comphrend the rationale and the various diffs this evening.22:46
sabdfli'm removing whitespace and want to reflow the text22:46
sabdflwhich will blow out the diff22:46
sabdflalso, i feel a need for a closing paragraph, anyone else agree>22:46
sabdfl?22:47
beunodholbach, I'm on bug-driven development for Loggerhead, so file a bug, and I'll get it done!22:47
dholbachsabdfl: "Be excellent with each other!"? :-)22:47
sabdflthere are a couple of other projects that have adopted this CoC22:47
makoi don't think it's necessary but wouldn't object to a good one :)22:47
sabdflthey've had to amend it to put their own project name in, and contextualise it22:48
sabdflis it a pipe dream to have it be really general?22:48
sladenwould be possible to debrand it22:48
makoso i've talked to some other people about this during this process22:48
sladenthe same situation has occured with the MPL etc where the proliferation has come from having to change the $name and then rename it22:49
sladeneven if the content is pretty much identical22:49
makoyeah, but that's not a problem here22:49
sladenand the service of providing a document that says "be nice to each other" is a good community service22:49
makolicense proliferation is bad because it leads to incompatible code22:49
dholbachsabdfl: in that case we'd have to remove the examples too probably, which I found fairly helpful in bringing our values in a "very vague" way across22:50
sabdflok, let's defer that till another time, i like it as it is22:50
sabdflit's already much classier and easier to derive from22:50
makoright, i would encourge other projects to think about relevant examples to help drive the points home when they derive :)22:50
dholbachsabdfl: do you want to leave some time for others to review or shall we go ahead with it?22:51
sladen(if somebody can prepare it, a reflowed and then HTML pretty red/green diff would be perfect for the review the changes)22:51
sladen...per-word diff22:52
sabdfli'm adding some bits22:53
dholbachhow about putting up a new merge proposal and deciding about it at the next meeting?22:54
makoso i really like that we're using the meeting to sort of force people to look at this and edit it :)22:54
sabdflokdokey22:54
mako but there is a process issue as well22:54
makois the CC happy voting as group to approve the CC, or do we want to put this up to a vote (perhaps at the same time as the new CC candidates)22:54
sabdflnot a bad idea22:55
makosince we've explicitly our community to sign it, it seems like it might be a good idea22:55
dholbachyeah, sounds good to me too22:55
makoand if we've got a vote coming up *anyway*...22:55
dholbachsabdfl: are you going to push your changes?22:55
ajmitchwill the community need to sign the new revision again?22:55
makoajmitch: that's another question22:56
makoi would say no22:56
sabdflshortly, and then i'll need to wrap up here and head to bed. i know its even later for you daniel!22:56
makologistically, that sounds insane :)22:56
dholbachI don't think there's changes in there that really require some "reconsideration"22:56
sabdflajmitch: i don't think these changes warrant asking for a re-affirmation22:56
makonot individually at least22:56
ajmitchI didn't think they would, but at some point in the future you may cross that22:56
makoif a large number of people say they think it's not in the spirit of the old draft and would have a problem with it, the CC should think real hard about approving it22:56
sabdflWe pride ourselves on building a productive, happy and agile community22:57
sabdflthat can welcome new ideas in a complex field, and foster collaboration22:57
sabdflbetween groups with very different needs, interests and goals. We hold22:57
sabdflour leaders to an even higher standard, in the Leadership Code of22:57
sabdflConduct, and arrange the governance of the community to ensure that22:57
sabdflthere are people with whom issues can be raised who are engaged,22:57
sabdflinterested and competent to help resolve them.22:57
sabdfl...22:57
sabdflit needs a final sentence22:57
makoultimately, our leadership needs to be accountable to our members. this seems like one place where that (a) may be necessary and (b) where a consultation will help ensure that22:57
popeycould launchpad keep a record of which one people have signed?, make it optional. So someone who signed the v1 CoC can also sign v2, but should not be forced to?22:57
sabdflpopey: it does, iirc22:58
ajmitchpopey: I think it has the version stored22:58
makoit might be nice to keep track of that, but not necessary22:58
makothe new draft really is trying to enshire an identical set of principles :)22:59
dholbach[AGREED] Mark to push CoC changes, set up ~ubuntumembers vote about CoC change at the time of the CC election, which leaves enough time for comments. no explicit re-affirmation required.22:59

dholbachmako: we'll defer wiki licensing and expectations for boards and team councils until the next meeting23:00
dholbachthere's still Edubuntu on the agenda, which I'd prefer to defer too23:00
dholbachdoes that sound OK?23:01
dholbachand Ubuntu One, where I'm not clear if the wiki page was updated with the explicit points that need discussion23:01
sabdflok23:01
makoi saw that nhandler asked about my expired membership at the beginning and y'all said it would be discussed23:02
makoi didn't see anything highlighted. was there an outcome?23:02
sabdflmako: you're in till we have the big vote, if that's ok23:02
dholbachpasted it to you in PM23:03
makoah, ok23:04
dholbach[TOPIC] Any other business?23:05
MootBotNew Topic:  Any other business?23:05
sladendholbach: what's unclear about Silbs' request23:05
dholbachsorry23:05
dholbachwho's here to discuss it?23:06
stgraberdholbach: I guess the edubuntu agenda item is also moving to the next meeting then ? (Diddn't see it mentioned above)23:06
sabdfldholbach: lp:~sabdfl/ubuntu-codeofconduct/proposed-revision23:06
dholbachthanks sabdfl23:06
sabdfllet's wrap!23:06
sladencan-of-worms neatly avoided for another fortnight^Wmonth23:07
dholbachyes, I'd prefer that too23:07
dholbachsladen: that's not fair - we had difficulties in achieving quorum and have a bunch of other things to discuss23:08
dholbachand is no honoring the discussions we had already23:08
makoit i don't undersatnd what that means23:09
dholbachthe next meeting is going to be Tue, 21st July 11:00 UTC23:09
makominus the "it"23:09
sabdflthe controversy stands, i'd like us to be raising new issues only now23:10
dholbachso let's adjourn and we'll have silbs there too23:10
sabdflwe didn't reach consensus on the use of the Ubuntu name, I don't think it's productive to revisit that now23:10
makosilbs issues sounded like a new issue (maybe a subset, but it was a distince new proposal/question)23:10
sabdflthere's a new question, w.r.t. one.ubuntu.com which is being raised here rather than simply executed23:11
sabdfli asked that the domain be one.ubuntu.com, and it was felt better to raise it here than JFDI23:11
sabdflwhich is how that came to be on the agenda23:11
sabdflbut we're out of time now23:11
dholbachI'll let silbs know about the meeting time23:12
dholbach#endmeeting23:12
