| Rocket2DMn | We'll wait a few minutes for bodhi | 00:02 |
|---|---|---|
| starcraftman | Rocket2DMn: k, no worries, No one else booked meeting after us. | 00:03 |
| drs305 | Rocket2DMn: While we are waiting, can I ask you a question about the quizzes? | 00:03 |
| Rocket2DMn | yeah drs305 | 00:03 |
| drs305 | Has there ever been discussion about when a quiz is given (i.e. scheduled vs spru of the moment)? | 00:04 |
| drs305 | * spur ( I hate sprus) | 00:04 |
| Rocket2DMn | no, it's always just been spur of the moment (i.e. whenever bodhi got to it) | 00:04 |

| Rocket2DMn | let's start with the main agenda then | 00:12 |
| Rocket2DMn | [TOPIC] Folding@Home and the #ubuntu-folding channel | 00:13 |
| MootBot | New Topic: Folding@Home and the #ubuntu-folding channel | 00:13 |
| Rocket2DMn | swoody, you're up | 00:13 |
| swoody | Thanks Rocket2DMn, I'll make this short for everyone :) | 00:13 |
| swoody | I just wanted to make a brief annoucement to everyone here about the Folding@Home project. | 00:13 |
| swoody | For those of you who don't know what Folding@Home is, it's a distributed computing project that was started by Stanford University. | 00:13 |
| swoody | F@H uses your computer's spare processing power to assist researchers in folding proteins. | 00:14 |
| swoody | The work that's being done by the F@H project is giving scientists a better understanding of how certain diseases develop, and can lead to cures for diseases such as Parkinson's, Huntington's, Alzheimers, and cancer amoung many others. | 00:14 |
| swoody | I feel that it's a very worthy project, and I also believe that this project ties in greatly with Ubuntu's philosiphy of giving back to the greater community. | 00:14 |
| swoody | For some more info on the project or to find out how you can help out, plese drop by our channel at #ubuntu-folding, or check out: | 00:15 |
| swoody | [LINK] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FoldingAtHome | 00:15 |
| MootBot | LINK received: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FoldingAtHome | 00:15 |
| swoody | and if there's no questions..... | 00:16 |
| drs305 | Is there just one Ubuntu team now? | 00:16 |
| swoody | drs305: ah, yes! The multiple teams that used to be are now united under Tem Ubuntu :) | 00:16 |
| swoody | Team Ubuntu** | 00:17 |
| drs305 | ty | 00:17 |
| starcraftman | Only thing ya might want to add swoody is mentioning origami installer, very handy. | 00:17 |
| swoody | yes, thank you starcraftman :) | 00:18 |
| swoody | There are a number of ways to install the F@H client on your computer. Most of them are very simple (2 commands | 00:18 |
| swoody | ) and very painless :) | 00:18 |
| swoody | Anyone want to toss out anything else, or have any questions? | 00:19 |
| Raidsong | can you give us the commands? | 00:19 |
| swoody | to install origami it's simply 'sudo apt-get install origami'... | 00:20 |
| swoody | then to set it up would be "sudo origami install [-t TEAMNUMBER -u FOLDINGUSER ]" | 00:21 |
| starcraftman | For more information on the origami installer (including more advanced options see: | 00:21 |

| swoody | ah, thank you starcraftman :) | 00:21 |
| swoody | and that should be about it then :) | 00:22 |
| starcraftman | swoody: no problem, always here to help. | 00:22 |
| Rocket2DMn | Cool project swoody , thank you for sharing | 00:22 |
| swoody | Again, if anyone has any questions, please feel free to drop by #ubuntu-folding | 00:22 |
| swoody | ty Rocket2DMn :) | 00:22 |
| Rocket2DMn | [TOPIC] Remove Beginners Team Calendar | 00:23 |
| MootBot | New Topic: Remove Beginners Team Calendar | 00:23 |
| Raidsong | ill run this on both of my computers | 00:23 |
| nhandler | I can talk about this Rocket2DMn | 00:23 |
| Rocket2DMn | floor is yours nhandler | 00:23 |
| nhandler | Pretty much, we started using a separate calendar due to the closed nature of the old fridge (and because we had meetings in #ubuntuforums-beginners) | 00:23 |
| nhandler | Now, we use #ubuntu-meeting and the Fridge for our main meetings | 00:23 |
| nhandler | I see it as a waste of time duplicating this on our own calendar that not many people subscribe to | 00:24 |
| nhandler | If there are no objections, I would like to go ahead and get the BT calendar deleted | 00:24 |
| Rocket2DMn | nhandler, let's get bodhi's final approval on that before we shut it down | 00:24 |
| nhandler | Rocket2DMn: Of course. But I would like to get a vote at this meeting as well | 00:25 |
| superbenny | is there really any work that goes into it? i dont see any reason why we cant just leave it there for people, such as myself who do use it | 00:25 |
| Rocket2DMn | I also use it, perhaps we should just remove it from the wiki page? | 00:25 |
| nhandler | superbenny: Might I ask why you use that instead of the normal Fridge calendar? | 00:25 |
| Rocket2DMn | gcal it sends email reminders | 00:25 |
| nhandler | Rocket2DMn: The Fridge is a gcal now | 00:26 |
| superbenny | no idea, that was just the one on the wiki. also, is the fridge cal only bt items? | 00:26 |
| Rocket2DMn | link? | 00:26 |
| nhandler | superbenny: No, it has items for all Ubuntu teams | 00:26 |
| superbenny | as of right now, I'm not really involved in much outside of the BT. | 00:26 |
| nhandler | [link] http://fridge.ubuntu.com/calendar | 00:26 |
| MootBot | LINK received: http://fridge.ubuntu.com/calendar | 00:26 |
| starcraftman | Long as the fgs and main teem meetings are all consolidated into the fridge calendar I'm fine with it, means no duplication like I get now. | 00:26 |
| superbenny | so it just keeps useless events off of my calendar | 00:26 |
| nhandler | starcraftman: Most FG don't even use the BT calendar. However, I think it would be fine to have them use the Fridge calendar | 00:27 |
| superbenny | now, if there is someone who sits there and devotes more than 10 minutes to it, then its reasonable to delete it, but as far as i'm aware, its just an auto-repeating event every other tuesday | 00:27 |
| Rocket2DMn | nhandler, can you schedule events on the fridge calendar that aren't held in this channel? | 00:28 |
| superbenny | in which case, no harm can come from leaving it as-is | 00:28 |
| nhandler | superbenny: As of a few weeks ago, it is auto-repeating. I have no issue leaving it like that. However, I have no plans on correcting it for the few instances we get off schedule (which happen around US holidays and such) | 00:28 |
| nhandler | Rocket2DMn: Yes | 00:28 |
| swoody | +1 if that is the case superbenny | 00:28 |
| nhandler | Rocket2DMn: For example, we use it for classroom sessions that are in #ubuntu-classroom | 00:28 |
| nhandler | The Doc Team has also used it for meetings in #ubuntu-doc | 00:29 |
| Rocket2DMn | ok, shall we put it to a vote then? | 00:29 |
| nhandler | Sure | 00:29 |
| Rocket2DMn | are we voting to close it down, or just to remove it from the wiki page? | 00:30 |
| nhandler | Rocket2DMn: I would make the vote to "stop using it". We would start referencing the Fridge on the wiki, and I (and other people) would stop updating the BT calendar | 00:30 |
| superbenny | sounds good to me. | 00:31 |
| Rocket2DMn | [VOTE] Stop using the BT Google Calendar and only use The Fridge instead? | 00:31 |

| Rocket2DMn | nhandler, you want the action to double check with bodhi and remove it from wiki? | 00:33 |
| nhandler | Rocket2DMn: That is fine | 00:33 |
| Rocket2DMn | [ACTION] nhandler to check removal of GCal and remove from wiki | 00:34 |
| MootBot | ACTION received: nhandler to check removal of GCal and remove from wiki | 00:34 |
| Rocket2DMn | I'll postpone the next agenda item since bodhi isn't here | 00:34 |
| Rocket2DMn | [TOPIC] Drop ##beginners-classroom | 00:34 |
| MootBot | New Topic: Drop ##beginners-classroom | 00:34 |
| Rocket2DMn | nhandler, you're up again | 00:34 |
| nhandler | We stopped using ##beginners-classroom in favor of #ubuntu-classroom a while ago | 00:35 |
| nhandler | This is why we did not create a #ubuntu-beginners-classroom when we renamed the team | 00:35 |
| nhandler | As a result, I see no reason to keep this unused channel open, and I propose dropping it | 00:35 |
| Rocket2DMn | How do we go about removing it? | 00:36 |
| Rocket2DMn | is it just a matter of not referencing it on the wiki anymore? | 00:36 |
| nhandler | Rocket2DMn: Bodhi would do a /msg ChanServ drop ##beginners-classroom | 00:36 |
| nhandler | Rocket2DMn: I'm not even sure if it is referenced still on the wiki | 00:36 |
| Rocket2DMn | [LINK] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BeginnersTeam/FocusGroups | 00:36 |
| MootBot | LINK received: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BeginnersTeam/FocusGroups | 00:36 |
| Rocket2DMn | it's still listed there | 00:36 |
| swoody | nhandler: The channel hasn't been used for anything recently? | 00:37 |
| nhandler | swoody: Correct | 00:37 |
| nhandler | We moved to #ubuntu-classroom | 00:37 |
| Rocket2DMn | ok, does anybody want to voice any objections? | 00:37 |
| swoody | nhandler: Ah, I don't forsee any objections then :) | 00:37 |
| starcraftman | I got nothing. | 00:38 |
| superbenny | nor do i... | 00:38 |
| Rocket2DMn | ok, I don't think we need to vote on that | 00:38 |
| Rocket2DMn | that's really a FG decision | 00:38 |
| nhandler | I'll talk to bodhi and get it dropped then | 00:38 |

| starcraftman | Nope. | 00:40 |
| andrew_46 | Nothing here | 00:40 |
| superbenny | nope | 00:40 |
| Rocket2DMn | Okie dokie then, there aren't any padawan nominations, so I think we're finished | 00:40 |
| starcraftman | Guess so. | 00:41 |
| Rocket2DMn | nobody has any last minute nominations right? | 00:41 |

| slangasek | morning | 16:02 |
| robbiew | evand: james_w: around? | 16:02 |
| al-maisan | me | 16:02 |
| james_w | hi | 16:02 |
| evand | hi | 16:03 |
| robbiew | sorry for the late Agenda...took longer to pull together than I thought :/ | 16:04 |
| robbiew | cjwatson: around? | 16:04 |
| cjwatson | hi | 16:04 |
| robbiew | cool | 16:04 |
| robbiew | [TOPIC] Alpha 4 Deliverables | 16:04 |
| MootBot | New Topic: Alpha 4 Deliverables | 16:04 |
| robbiew | looked through the list, and I'm thinking some will be Alpha 5/6 deliverables :P | 16:05 |
| robbiew | or we simply drop them | 16:05 |
| cjwatson | unfortunately yes | 16:05 |
| robbiew | cjwatson: cloud setup has a legitimate excuse ;) | 16:05 |
| cjwatson | cloud is essential so I don't think we have the luxury of dropping it, but it will be a5 | 16:05 |
| robbiew | okay | 16:06 |
| robbiew | I consider grub2 as done...but there is some work we need to do to help the DX team deliver | 16:06 |
| robbiew | on Boot Experience | 16:06 |
| cjwatson | grub2 is only done by a generous interpretation, but you'll be pleased to hear that I just got the zero-delay stuff working | 16:06 |
| cjwatson | about fifteen minutes before this meeting | 16:06 |
| robbiew | awesome | 16:06 |
| robbiew | I'm sure sabdfl will be happy as well ;) | 16:07 |
| cjwatson | I'll push it out to a5, it's safe for that | 16:07 |
| cjwatson | whatever gave you that idea? ;) | 16:07 |
| Keybuk | cjwatson: well done | 16:07 |
| Keybuk | cjwatson: I assume you need a few days off to recover from writing ia32 assembler? :p | 16:07 |
| robbiew | heh | 16:07 |
| cjwatson | fortunately I was just applying somebody else's ia32 assembler | 16:07 |
| cjwatson | although by an amazing coincidence I'm off next week | 16:08 |
| robbiew | nice | 16:08 |
| robbiew | yeah...both cjwatson and Keybuk out on the same week | 16:08 |
| * Keybuk is around in cases of emergency, I'm only painting | 16:09 | |
| robbiew | heh | 16:09 |
| liw | Keybuk, house? paintings? | 16:09 |
| robbiew | not much of a holiday then | 16:09 |
| * robbiew assumes house | 16:09 | |
| robbiew | based on twitter updates | 16:09 |
| cjwatson | I'm at home as well | 16:09 |
| robbiew | cjwatson: do you think we can get the blinking cursor removed? | 16:10 |
| robbiew | in grub2 | 16:10 |
| robbiew | as well as the random text stuff that pops up? | 16:10 |
| cjwatson | the text is doable, it's on my list - the cursor is actually after grub2 and may involve connivance with the kernel and probably even userspace (to put it back at the end of boot) | 16:10 |
| Keybuk | cjwatson: getty already conveniently resets the tty | 16:11 |
| cjwatson | ah, that helps | 16:11 |
| cjwatson | I was trying to arrange for grub2 to do all the screen setup, but unfortunately that doesn't actually work with Linux the way it is | 16:11 |
| cjwatson | see https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/kernel-team/2009-August/006773.html for the gory details | 16:11 |
| Keybuk | right, I imagine that would be hard since you'd need GRUB to initialise GL pipelines and shit ;) | 16:12 |
| cjwatson | nah | 16:12 |
| cjwatson | resets to the *same resolution* once KMS comes up won't be all that hard | 16:12 |
| cjwatson | it's just a matter of having some way to display text in the early stages in case everything goes south | 16:12 |
| cjwatson | which involves bringing up vesafb, then tearing it down again later | 16:13 |
| Keybuk | right, this sounds bad | 16:13 |
| Keybuk | I don't think it matters _when_ we set the resolution of the display | 16:13 |
| Keybuk | just that we only do it once | 16:13 |
| cjwatson | so I'm not sure how much I can do on that in practice, but it's easy to turn the cursor off *somewhere* I'm sure - definitely on my list | 16:13 |
| Keybuk | well, GRUB already turns it off | 16:14 |
| Keybuk | it's just that it turns it back on again <g> | 16:14 |
| robbiew | cjwatson: ack...thnx | 16:14 |
| robbiew | GRUB turns it off...then kernel turns it back on | 16:14 |
| robbiew | correct? | 16:14 |
| cjwatson | are you sure it's GRUB that turns it back on - or if so, if it didn't, wouldn't Linux do so too? it resets the screen itself | 16:14 |
| cjwatson | if it's GRUB I will deal with that, anyway | 16:14 |
| Keybuk | right, who knows | 16:15 |
| Keybuk | ideally nothing would clear the screen until gdm does ;) | 16:15 |
| Keybuk | or ?splash | 16:15 |
| Keybuk | I mean | 16:15 |
| cjwatson | moving the clear screen around in grub is part of fixing the early text | 16:15 |
| cjwatson | moving to oblivion in the case that the menu isn't going to be displayed | 16:15 |
| cjwatson | at the moment it clears the screen before it knows whether it wants to display the menu or not, so that needs to be rearranged somewhat | 16:16 |
| cjwatson | it's all doable anyway, I'm getting the hang of grub :) | 16:16 |
| robbiew | nice ;)...okay need to press on...full agenda today :/ | 16:16 |
| robbiew | slangasek : Multiarch support? Alpha 5..6..defer? | 16:17 |
| slangasek | robbiew: alpha4 was always a fuzzy target IMHO; I wouldn't want to cut it from the release until we absolutely have to, and Guillem is actively working on the dpkg bits now | 16:18 |
| robbiew | cool | 16:18 |
| robbiew | how about I make it Beta? | 16:18 |
| slangasek | ok | 16:18 |
| robbiew | or is that too late | 16:18 |
| slangasek | it's a little late for the package manager to land; so alpha-6 is probably better | 16:18 |
| robbiew | ok | 16:19 |
| robbiew | noted | 16:19 |
| robbiew | and the Power Management Cleanup work? | 16:19 |
| robbiew | I recall mterry working on that | 16:19 |
| mterry | robbiew, I did some work at the beginning of the cycle, but haven't since. I thought slangasek was doing the keybinding work | 16:19 |
| slangasek | there are a few more power management cleanup bits we can expect to accomplish this cycle, but nothing earth-moving | 16:20 |
| slangasek | since there are still architecture bits missing before we can kill acpi-support completely | 16:20 |
| robbiew | so should we just say Alpha 6 as the deadline to cleanup whatever possible? | 16:21 |
| slangasek | sounds good | 16:21 |
| robbiew | k | 16:22 |
| robbiew | evand: Encrypted Swap...is that done? | 16:23 |
| evand | Encrypted swap is just waiting on kirkland to review a patch I have for ecryptfs (he's on vacation). Migration Assistant is turning out to be much more involved than I had initially anticipated, and I'm going to have to defer it to alpha 5/6. | 16:23 |
| robbiew | no worries | 16:24 |
| robbiew | let's put the swap at Alpha 5 | 16:24 |
| robbiew | as for the assistant work....it's okay to defer if you don't think it will happen this cycle | 16:24 |
| * robbiew knows it's work evand REALLY wanted to do though | 16:24 | |
| robbiew | so I'm fine with Alpha 6....and then reassess deferment then | 16:25 |
| evand | ah, that removes quite a bit of stress over it, actually. I'll keep at it full-bore, but noted. | 16:25 |
| evand | thanks | 16:26 |
| robbiew | no worries | 16:26 |
| * robbiew will need to talk to mvo about the Install updates on Shutdown work (possibly deferrable) and the Robust Python work | 16:27 | |

| robbiew | [TOPIC] Missing Milestones | 16:28 |
| MootBot | New Topic: Missing Milestones | 16:28 |
| liw | I was under the impression we are already using eglibc in karmic and we only need to take care of fixing any bugs that are found -- was I optimistic? | 16:29 |
| robbiew | liw: I think you're right | 16:29 |
| slangasek | we are using eglibc, yes | 16:29 |
| cjwatson | I'll split archive-reorganization into two specs to reflect reality | 16:29 |
| robbiew | cjwatson: cool...thnx | 16:29 |
| cjwatson | then they can get a milestone apiece | 16:29 |
| robbiew | liw: at this point, I'm not sure how much a blueprint is needed...since eglibc is already in | 16:30 |
| cjwatson | robust python: I believe that Steve, Matthias, and I agreed in Dublin that we would just robustify the individual packages that are deep in dep trees and causing problems, rather than changing the entire stack | 16:30 |
| cjwatson | lsb-release comes to mind right now | 16:30 |
| cjwatson | but I'd like to confirm that with mvo when we gets back | 16:30 |
| cjwatson | s/we/he/ | 16:30 |
| liw | robbiew, ok, if you decide it's needed, prod me again | 16:30 |
| robbiew | ack | 16:30 |
| robbiew | liw: no worries...no need to waste time on unnecessary "paperwork" ;) | 16:31 |
| robbiew | slangasek: what did we decide to do about the copyright licenses in packages? | 16:31 |
| * robbiew cannot remember :/ | 16:31 | |
| liw | zsync: I'm waiting for mvo to return (he's really popular now), to get help with the apt part of the implementation (zsync for Packages files); I'm setting up prototypes for using debdelta so we can use either debdelta's own upgrade stuff, or integrate it to apt | 16:32 |
| slangasek | robbiew: I'm to get the DEP text into a respectable state (which it isn't currently), and we're to start using it this cycle | 16:32 |
| liw | slangasek, \o/ | 16:32 |
| robbiew | who's actually going to update the packages? liw? | 16:33 |
| robbiew | mterry gets grunt work? | 16:33 |
| robbiew | :P | 16:33 |
| liw | uh, what? :) | 16:33 |
| slangasek | robbiew: once it's blessed, we all can update packages as we go | 16:33 |
| robbiew | ah...okay | 16:33 |
| robbiew | I'm good with that | 16:34 |
| robbiew | liw: ack on the Zsync stuff...thnx | 16:34 |
| mterry | Easier for people that are familiar with the package to know correct copyright lines | 16:34 |
| robbiew | indeed | 16:34 |
| robbiew | nice deflection mterry ;) | 16:34 |
| liw | copyrights: starting with packages which maintain in Ubuntu and don't inherit from Debian, presumably, to restrict deltas | 16:34 |
| mterry | :) | 16:34 |
| robbiew | right | 16:34 |
| liw | robbiew, zsync milestone: I doubt before feature-freeze, but I'll provide an apt in a PPA for those who want to use it | 16:35 |
| robbiew | liw: what was decided about the pre-unpacking during downloads? do we run away screaming from that? | 16:35 |
| liw | pre-unpacking .debs while more are downloaded: I'm going to talk to mvo about that, too; basically, the only sensible way seems to be to have apt download in instalaltion order and install things in smaller batches whenever it has enough packages (while continuing to download in the background) | 16:35 |
| robbiew | liw: ack | 16:37 |
| * robbiew needs to clone mvo :P | 16:37 | |
| evand | You could always cut him in half and see if he regenerates like a starfish | 16:37 |
| slangasek | I thought that's why he was on leave? | 16:37 |
| robbiew | heh | 16:38 |

| robbiew | would be nice if the system let ME know :/ | 16:40 |
| james_w | I can transfer to email if you would like | 16:40 |
| robbiew | I'd recommend at least keeping an email copy | 16:40 |

| james_w | what do you know? it seems to have forgotten them | 16:43 |
| robbiew | heh | 16:43 |
| liw | a bit of good news: if this meeting doesn't extend too much, I will be able to celebrate an anniversary | 16:43 |
| * ogra wants such a topic in his team meetings !! | 16:43 | |

| robbiew | is that a hint ;) | 16:43 |

| ogra | james_w, you just use the wrong arch, try again on armel :) | 16:44 |

| robbiew | Keybuk: odd...I see the ones I put in | 16:44 |
| robbiew | dumb tool | 16:44 |
| robbiew | Keybuk: could you put them in and submit then? | 16:44 |
| robbiew | james_w: I can see yours | 16:45 |
| james_w | ah | 16:45 |
| Keybuk | robbiew: done, they promptly vanished again ;) but now I have no Submit button | 16:45 |
| james_w | good, I can't find the button to let me put some more in :-) | 16:45 |
| * robbiew processed Keybuk and james_w objectives ;) | 16:46 | |
| james_w | is there anyone on the team with C knowledge that would sanity check a patch for me? | 16:47 |
| Keybuk | sure | 16:47 |
| james_w | Keybuk: thanks, I'll put it in a mail | 16:47 |

| * fader_ waves. | 17:58 | |
| davmor2 | heelo | 17:58 |
| davmor2 | meh long day hello | 17:58 |
| czajkowski | very long day | 17:59 |
| heno | welcome everyone! | 18:01 |
| heno | let's start ... | 18:01 |
| heno | #startmeeting | 18:02 |
| MootBot | Meeting started at 12:02. The chair is heno. | 18:02 |
| MootBot | Commands Available: [TOPIC], [IDEA], [ACTION], [AGREED], [LINK], [VOTE] | 18:02 |
| heno | agenda as always: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/Meetings | 18:02 |
| heno | hope everyone had uneventful travels back from Dublin | 18:03 |
| heno | [TOPIC] UbuntuBugDay highlights -- pedro | 18:03 |
| MootBot | New Topic: UbuntuBugDay highlights -- pedro | 18:03 |
| pedro_ | well we didn't have a hug day the past week but... | 18:05 |
| pedro_ | On Thursday 30 of July we celebrated a bug day based on Nautilus | 18:05 |
| heno | (we also didn't have an IRC meeting) | 18:05 |
| pedro_ | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBugDay/20090730 | 18:05 |
| pedro_ | yeah that's correct | 18:05 |
| pedro_ | ~61 bugs were triaged, Thanks a lot to our hug day heroes: 8 Kamus, yofel, kklimonda, trothigar, showard314, shankao, mrkanister and adisari06 | 18:06 |
| pedro_ | MacSlow pinged me a couple of weeks ago to see the possibility to organize a hug day for the notify-osd | 18:06 |
| pedro_ | we talked about it during the sprint and | 18:07 |
| pedro_ | Tomorrow we're going to celebrate a hug day based on notify-osd | 18:07 |
| pedro_ | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBugDay/20090813 | 18:07 |
| heno | why do the New bugs get more attention than the Incomplete? Because the initial triage is easier than the follow-up? | 18:07 |
| pedro_ | everybody is welcome to join us and help there | 18:08 |
| pedro_ | yeap seems to be easier, also lot of incomplete bugs still don't have a response but they cannot be closed yet | 18:09 |
| heno | makes sense | 18:09 |
| heno | thanks pedro_ | 18:10 |

| heno | \o/ | 18:13 |
| james_w | yay | 18:13 |
| ara | Well, nothing more not say, almost self explanatory. mago is now available in karmic repositories | 18:13 |
| heno | who do we thank for doing/reviewing the uploads? | 18:14 |
| ara | nvarcalcel and seb128 make an initial revision | 18:14 |
| heno | it will make the self-testing CD one step closer | 18:14 |
| ara | and Iain Lane uploaded it | 18:15 |

| MootBot | New Topic: (Canonical) QA Team lead change -- heno | 18:17 |
| cr3 | ara: I want 10% then! | 18:17 |
| heno | As I mentioned at UDS I'm moving to a different team in Canonical (ISD) | 18:17 |
| heno | that now has a date, which is this Monday | 18:18 |
| fader` | heno: Congratulations! :) | 18:18 |

| davmor2 | well done heno and welcome marjo | 18:19 |
| heno | I expect he'll lead these IRC meetings going forward, but you can all fight it out ;) | 18:19 |
| cr3 | heno: we will fondly refer to these days as BH (Before Heno), marking this significant point in history | 18:19 |
| eeejay | heno, good luck! | 18:20 |
| ara | heno, you will be missed! | 18:20 |
| heno | eeejay: thanks, you too :) | 18:20 |

| greg-g | I know I am! | 23:00 |
| pleia2 | ok everyone, welcome to the americas board meeting :) we have quorum so lets get started | 23:00 |
| pleia2 | looks like brywilharris and oubiwann aren't here | 23:01 |
| pleia2 | tarvid: you're up :) | 23:01 |
| pleia2 | give us a short introduction and link to your wiki | 23:01 |
| tarvid | tarvid is here | 23:02 |
| tarvid | here | 23:02 |
| tarvid | here | 23:02 |
| tarvid | here | 23:02 |
| beuno | tarvid, ok, tell us about yourself then | 23:03 |
| greg-g | everything ok, tarvid ? | 23:03 |
| beuno | ok | 23:04 |
| beuno | NEXT! | 23:04 |
| * Ursinha prays to lord for her internet connection | 23:04 | |
| greg-g | I guess tarvid was having some connection issues, so we'll move on to | 23:04 |
| beuno | Coringao is not around either | 23:04 |
| pleia2 | nor is wiebelhaus | 23:04 |
| beuno | tarvid, dude, you're up! | 23:05 |
| greg-g | ahh, tarvid, welcome back | 23:05 |
| tarvid | tarvid is back. pidgin run amuck | 23:05 |
| pleia2 | tarvid: please introduce yourself and link to your wiki page :) | 23:05 |
| tarvid | tarvid is an International Health Consultant turned ISP | 23:05 |
| tarvid | wiki page is Jim Tarvid | 23:05 |
| tarvid | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/JimTarvid | 23:06 |
| tarvid | I've been an active Linux user since 1995 | 23:06 |
| tarvid | pidgin again, keep killing twitter but it keeps coming back | 23:07 |
| beuno | tarvid, what have your contributions to Ubuntu been? | 23:07 |
| tarvid | I've been promoting Linux actively since 1997 or 1998 | 23:07 |
| tarvid | I hold regular install fests and release parties | 23:07 |
| tarvid | I am working on erlang upstream (Debian) | 23:08 |
| cr3 | tarvid: erlang, you rock! | 23:08 |
| Technoviking | what is erlang and what work have you been doing on it. | 23:08 |
| tarvid | I want to do schemaless databases | 23:08 |
| beuno | tarvid, why? | 23:09 |
| tarvid | I have the theory that things can be reduced to codices+indices | 23:09 |
| tarvid | If you look at Drupal CCK for example, to be flexible, the add a table per field to content profiles | 23:09 |
| tarvid | MySQL is a hammer for which everything looks like a nail | 23:10 |
| pleia2 | tarvid: can your provide a link to your upstream work, please? | 23:10 |
| tarvid | it just started | 23:10 |
| tarvid | Current maintainer Noah Slaterhas other fish to fry | 23:10 |
| tarvid | My work so far is builds on Ubuntu and Windows for my own use | 23:11 |
| beuno | tarvid, so, from what I can gather, your actual direct contributions to Ubuntu have been helping out in your LoCo? | 23:11 |
| tarvid | True. I revived the loco a few months ago. A struggle but perhaps it will work out | 23:12 |
| beuno | tarvid, how long have you been involved in ubuntu? | 23:12 |
| tarvid | Warty | 23:12 |
| tarvid | We use it internally | 23:13 |
| beuno | tarvid, using, or contributing to the project? | 23:13 |
| tarvid | About 150 websites and a couple dozen Drupal | 23:13 |
| tarvid | Not sure there is a difference in this area | 23:13 |
| greg-g | I'm confused by what you mean by 150 website and couple dozen drupal | 23:14 |
| tarvid | Among other things we are a web hosting provider | 23:14 |
| greg-g | oh, you mean you are using Ubuntu to host about 150 websites including a couple dozen drupal installs? | 23:14 |
| tarvid | We provide mentoring and hosting to a few Drupal web sites | 23:14 |
| tarvid | yes | 23:15 |
| pleia2 | "we"? the company you work for? | 23:15 |
| tarvid | LS.Net | 23:15 |
| beuno | tarvid, so, I feel you have been a very active Ubuntu user, but have not done a lot of active work in the Ubuntu project. | 23:15 |
| tarvid | We will have our 14th birthday in a few days | 23:15 |
| tarvid | Hmm. If you mean packaging, yes | 23:15 |
| beuno | well, no, I mean in general | 23:16 |
| tarvid | And we have actively promoted Ubuntu in our area | 23:16 |
| beuno | or I'm not understanding this well | 23:16 |
| boredandblogging | tarvid: lsnet has hosted one release party? | 23:16 |
| beuno | tarvid, I'm confused by your use of "we" | 23:16 |
| tarvid | I would gues 6 or 7 | 23:16 |
| tarvid | I found online documentation for the one on the wiki page | 23:16 |
| tarvid | We is LSNet collectively, three second hand lions | 23:17 |
| boredandblogging | ready to vote? | 23:17 |
| beuno | tarvid, so, I see you're very enthusiastic, seem to be doing a very good job at promoting Ubuntu, but I feel you need to get more involved individually in the community as a whole. I'm -1 today. | 23:18 |
| beuno | boredandblogging, that | 23:18 |
| beuno | that's a "yes, I'm ready" :) | 23:18 |
| boredandblogging | i'm with beuno, seems like the lines are blurred between lsnet and you | 23:19 |
| pleia2 | tarvid: I'd really like to see more Ubuntu specific activity with the Virginia team, and your upstream work sounds like it has a lot of potential :) but I'm going to have to -1 for now until more of it comes to fruition | 23:19 |
| Technoviking | -1 here also, I think you have good work, but I would like to see more direct work wih Ubuntu and the community. | 23:19 |
| greg-g | tarvid: I would just like to see a bit more documentation of your contributions: bug triage, coverage of Ubuntu specific events you ran/planned, etc. For today, -1, but I see your have great expectations and possibilities, so keep up the good work and come back later! :) | 23:19 |
| beuno | Coringao, start preparing | 23:19 |
| Coringao | beuno, ok | 23:20 |
| Legendario | i am going to help coringao on the english. ok, guys? | 23:21 |
| pleia2 | Legendario: sure thing, thanks for your help :) | 23:21 |
| Legendario | no problem | 23:21 |
| Technoviking | Legendario: thanks | 23:22 |
| beuno | ok, Coringao, you're up | 23:22 |
| Coringao | beuno, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Coringao | 23:23 |
| Legendario | i am going to introduce him | 23:23 |
| Legendario | he is the creator and administrator of the ubuntu games website | 23:24 |
| Legendario | his been doing this specific work since 2005 | 23:24 |
| pleia2 | wow, neat | 23:24 |
| Legendario | creates tutorials to make easier the installation of games on ubuntu | 23:24 |
| Legendario | also creates some debs for couple games | 23:25 |
| Legendario | no piracy, just free software games | 23:25 |
| greg-g | :) good deal | 23:25 |
| greg-g | are these debs proposed to be included in the ubuntu repositories? | 23:25 |
| Legendario | www.ubuntugames.org | 23:26 |
| beuno | Coringao, you've done awesome work there! | 23:26 |
| greg-g | I guess the better question is: are the debs in Debian or ubuntu? or are they a getdeb-type thing? | 23:26 |
| Technoviking | Coringao: Any plans to add some of your tutorials to the Offical Ubuntu wiki? | 23:26 |
| Legendario | they are included on the ubuntu games repository | 23:27 |
| beuno | Coringao, the game installer is a a very cool project | 23:28 |
| boredandblogging | Coringao: why not put them in the ubuntu repositories? | 23:28 |
| Legendario | the ubuntu-sp LoCo team (which he am I are part of) are trying to include those tutorials on the wiki-br | 23:28 |
| Pretto | greg-g, it's his own debs, just to make it easy to deploy the game, but not for make part of any repository because no policy are followed | 23:28 |
| greg-g | Pretto: ah, thank you | 23:28 |
| Ursinha | Legendario, are you sure the games are all free software? I saw tutorials about closed source games | 23:28 |
| Ursinha | actually me and Coringao discussed a lot about that a few weeks ago | 23:29 |
| greg-g | is it something that the ubuntugames group wants to do in the future? (put the debs in Universe) | 23:29 |
| beuno | Coringao, are you interested in working towards including some of this work in Ubuntu proper, or is this something that you're mostly interested in keeping separate? | 23:29 |
| * beuno high-fives greg-g | 23:29 | |
| greg-g | beuno: :) | 23:29 |
| Legendario | he is interested in getting those debs in the universe repositories, but he needs some help on that, on the english for exempla | 23:30 |
| pleia2 | that's great to hear :) | 23:30 |
| boredandblogging | thats excellent | 23:31 |
| Legendario | well, he is dictating me those things to me on skype, ok | 23:31 |
| greg-g | awesome, we like more things in the officially supported repositories, makes everyone feel good :) | 23:31 |
| Legendario | i agree ;-) | 23:31 |
| beuno | Coringao, do you do any work in your LoCo? | 23:32 |
| greg-g | Ursinha: did you see debs for closed source games or just tutorials? | 23:33 |
| Legendario | yes, he is one of the administrators of the Ubuntu-SP LoCo team, with me and Christiano | 23:33 |
| Ursinha | greg-g, I saw some closed source bios packaged, but I asked him to remove and he kindly did | 23:33 |
| greg-g | Ursinha: ah, good deal, thanks for the info | 23:33 |
| Ursinha | greg-g, np | 23:33 |
| beuno | Coringao, plans for the future? | 23:34 |
| Legendario | Put the debs on the official repositories, internacionalize the ubuntu games website (with the help of the ubuntu-sp loco team) and | 23:35 |
| Ursinha | Legendario, not just the ubuntu-sp locoteam, he's welcome to work with the ubuntu-br as well, I offered that to him | 23:35 |
| Legendario | keep helping on the loco team (meetings, support, advocating, etc) | 23:35 |
| greg-g | ... good so far... | 23:35 |
| greg-g | that is a good list of goals | 23:35 |
| Legendario | his is already part of the ubuntu-br team | 23:36 |
| Legendario | ursinha | 23:36 |
| boredandblogging | ubuntu-sp is not part of ubuntu-br? | 23:36 |
| Ursinha | Legendario,I'm saying I offered him help with his stuff | 23:36 |
| Ursinha | boredandblogging, should be :) | 23:36 |
| greg-g | cool, we'll I think we're ready to vote | 23:37 |
| Legendario | <boredandblogging> yes, it is. ubuntu-sp is under ubuntu-br | 23:37 |
| Legendario | hierachy | 23:37 |

| Coringao | thanks | 23:39 |
| Pretto | Coringao, congrats!!! now you are a member :D | 23:39 |

| beuno | Pretto, 4 out of 6 is majority, so we're approving at 4 | 23:39 |
| beuno | and it is 5 :) | 23:40 |
| pleia2 | bratsche: you're up! please give us a brief introduction and link to your wiki :) | 23:40 |
| Legendario | you guys made the right choice!!!! ;-) | 23:40 |
| Pretto | beuno, hehehheh | 23:40 |
| bratsche | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CodyRussell | 23:40 |
| bratsche | Hi, I'm Cody Russell. I work for Canonical on the Ubuntu Desktop Experience Team. | 23:40 |
| bratsche | I started just before the Jaunty release, did some notify-osd related work at that time, now I'm working on the Karmic release. | 23:41 |
| bratsche | I'm writing xsplash, which is the new transition effect when you enter your desktop session. | 23:41 |
| bratsche | And I'm supposed to be starting on some new effects and theming related stuff for the gdm session. | 23:41 |
| bratsche | And in general working on widgets and trying to sexify things a bit more. :) | 23:42 |
| bratsche | I do a lot of work upstream on gtk+ as well. | 23:42 |
| jpds | Oh, the Big Ben guy. | 23:42 |
| bratsche | haha, yeah. | 23:43 |
| pleia2 | bratsche: you say you're a long-time ubuntu user, before joining canonical what kinds of things were you working on? similar to your work now? | 23:43 |
| greg-g | bratsche: thanks for the work to make Ubuntu a bit more attractive. Is there a LoCo team nearby to you? If so, have you participated in it much? | 23:44 |
| bratsche | I'm a long-time Ubuntu user, but not a long-time Ubuntu developer. Before joining Canonical I worked on gtk+ and some other upstream stuff, but I was working for a company called Medsphere developing an open-source medical system called OpenVista CIS (whose source is in launchpad if you care for it) ;) | 23:44 |
| bratsche | greg-g: I'm not sure.. I just moved from Baltimore to Dallas a couple months ago and haven't looked into the LoCo team here yet. | 23:45 |
| greg-g | ah, Dallas, they're are a few Ubuntu folks around there | 23:45 |
| === [1]superbenny is now known as superbenny | ||
| bratsche | Cool, I'll have to look into that. | 23:46 |
| greg-g | yeah, good people, too. Like Mario L. | 23:47 |
| boredandblogging | alright, I'm ready, +1 | 23:47 |
| * beuno is excusing himself from voting for any Canonical employees | 23:48 | |
| greg-g | +1 from me as well, good work | 23:48 |
| pleia2 | bratsche: thanks for making Ubuntu prettier! +1 | 23:48 |
| cr3 | greg-g: superm1 rocks! I'd move to Dallas just to be in his loco team :) | 23:48 |
| beuno | but bratsche is a great guy, that I can say :) | 23:48 |
| bratsche | heh, thanks :) | 23:48 |
| greg-g | cr3: if I didn't think the Michigan team was the best, I would too :) | 23:48 |
| Technoviking | +1 from me | 23:48 |
| pleia2 | congrats, welcome bratsche :) | 23:49 |
| beuno | 4 votes | 23:49 |
| bratsche | Thank you very much! | 23:49 |
| beuno | woooo bratsche | 23:49 |
| jpds | bratsche: Congrats! | 23:49 |
| Pretto | bratsche, Congrats!!! | 23:49 |
| Ursinha | congrats bratsche :) | 23:50 |
| beuno | I see just see cr3 and Ursinha, in the queue, right? | 23:50 |
| pleia2 | right | 23:50 |
| bratsche | Thanks very much, I appreciate your support! I'll keep working hard to make Ubuntu rock (more). | 23:50 |
| beuno | both Canonical employees, so that means I won't be voting anymore today :) | 23:50 |
| pleia2 | cr3: you're up! :) please introduce yourself and post a link to your wiki page | 23:50 |
| cr3 | pleia2: thanks! | 23:50 |
| beuno | anyone want to resign their jobs so I can vote for you? | 23:50 |
| cr3 | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MarcTardif | 23:50 |
| bratsche | beuno: heh | 23:51 |
| cr3 | As you've noticed already, I have to mention that I actually work for Canonical where I was initially hired in support. | 23:51 |
| cr3 | I understand bueno's position, so I will try to focus on the personal work that I have contributed to the community above and beyond my work rather than resign right now. | 23:51 |
| cr3 | I've been using Ubuntu since Breezy and been actively testing Ubuntu since Dapper as can be seen from my Launchpad bug track record, which was not part of my initial work. | 23:52 |
| greg-g | good choice | 23:52 |
| pleia2 | hehe | 23:52 |
| cr3 | I've also contributed test results to stgraber's ISO tracker on several occasions during my spare time for milestone releases, http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/. | 23:52 |
| cr3 | As a result of my testing, I started a personal project called Checkbox, https://launchpad.net/checkbox, which is now installed by default in Ubuntu. | 23:52 |
| Ursinha | checkbox, sweet! | 23:52 |
| cr3 | Following my interest in improving the quality of Ubuntu, I eventually moved to the Platform QA team where I can test Ubuntu as part of my work and more. Yay! | 23:52 |
| cr3 | I've also participated in the preparation of the Ubuntu release parties since Edgy with MagicFab. These have attracted a surprising number of people in Montreal which require quite a bit of preparation such as burning images late at night and so forth. | 23:53 |
| greg-g | awesome, I've been impressed with the Montreal crew | 23:53 |
| cr3 | I've also been very active in other communities around free software, but not related to Ubuntu, should I go into those details as well? | 23:54 |
| pleia2 | cr3: what is the best way to contact the Montreal team? we have a Pennsylvania fellow up there now and he's lost | 23:54 |
| cr3 | pleia2: #ubuntu-qc is good | 23:54 |
| pleia2 | cr3: cool, thanks! | 23:54 |
| cr3 | One of the reasons I would like to become an Ubuntu member is to share new ideas about testing and best practices which I've started exploring in my personal blog, http://cr3bits.wordpress.com/. | 23:55 |
| greg-g | cr3: if you could just give an idea of the types of groups, that'd be cool, no need to make your case for them :) | 23:55 |
| greg-g | hey, I'm a testing framework? never knew! http://cr3bits.wordpress.com/2009/06/23/test-result-codes/ :) | 23:56 |
| cr3 | greg-g: montreal perl mongers (organized several gatherings), FACIL (non profit organisation for the promotion of free software in the province of quebec where I chaired on the board of directors), organised several events like: copyright 2005 with RMS, libre a elle, etc. | 23:57 |
| pleia2 | perl mongers \o/ | 23:57 |
| cr3 | some of these events attracted up to 300 people, and I was a significant organiser | 23:57 |
| greg-g | that's a pretty good list. I remember you talking about a neat event around using licensed/un-licensed photos in a mural and spraying 'infringers' with water guns :) | 23:58 |
| cr3 | greg-g: dude, I didn't realize that was you! yeah, that was yet another event :) | 23:58 |
| greg-g | yep yep :) | 23:59 |
| greg-g | So, I think we're ready to vote | 23:59 |
| cr3 | While I'm listing contributions, I should also mention that I contributed GNU Bool, which is now part of the GNU Project | 23:59 |
