lfaraoneHey, for a LP superproject, is it possible to define the default project selected when you go to https://launchpad.net/sugarlabs/+filebug ?12:50
wgrantlfaraone: No. Patches might well be welcome.12:51

lfaraoneThere are no plans in LP to ever allow native git hosting on-par with bzr, right? (even if somebody submitted patches)13:49
Ursinhalfaraone, in my personal opinion, lp is too tied to bzr, so it would be needed *a lot* (imagine this blinking :P) of patches to add support to git14:14
lfaraoneUrsinha: I see. But it'd be accepted if the work was done, no?14:14
barrydanilos: ping14:14
Ursinhawell, I can't answer that because no idea14:15
danilosbarry: pong14:15
Ursinhamaybe rockstar in a few hours14:15
Ursinhaor abentley14:15
barrydanilos: hi!  i have questions about translations (with my launchpad user hat on :)14:15
danilosbarry: hey look, I am right behind the corner :)14:16
danilosbarry: just kidding, shoot :)14:16
barrydanilos: :).  so, i want to move all mailman translations to launchpad, but we have some complications14:16
barrydanilos: the first is that our /current/ translations are mostly gnu copyrighted, but we don't have clear copyright assignments for all existing translations14:17
abentleyUrsinha, lfaraone: That would be a question for management.14:17
danilosbarry: don't tell me you are using non-standard PO file format, please, I hate that one :)14:17
danilosbarry: phew, ok, copyrights, and easy one14:17
barrydanilos: the other problem is the whole bsd licensing issue14:17
lfaraoneabentley: Hm. How'd I go about asking them? :)14:17
barrydanilos: yeah, you say that now :)14:17
Ursinhathanks abentley14:17
abentleylfaraone: Prefix your question with "flacoste:" :-)14:17
danilosbarry: in general, if you've used TP (TranslationProject.org) so far, your translations are likely not GNU copyrighted, but in public domain14:17
barrydanilos: nope, we are standard gnu gettext all the way!  (well, discounting our old crufty templates, but we're going to fix that)14:17
barrydanilos: we really have never used TP14:18
danilosbarry: in that sense, what LP does is slightly better for the user and community than what FSF does14:18
barrydanilos: all translations until now have essentially been sent to us as patches, from our own language-specific teams14:18
danilosbarry: ah, ok14:18
danilosbarry: right, right14:18
barrydanilos: we experimented with a donated pootle server but that never really got off the ground14:18
lfaraoneflacoste: per abentley, if someone else were to do all of the work to integrate LP and git (on par with bzr support), would it be accepted?14:18
danilosbarry: so, to be honest, translations copyright done right is basically an impossible task (derivative work, reusing TMs, etc.)14:19
barrydanilos: i know :/14:19
barrydanilos: i'm wondering what other official gnu projects do for translating on lp (are there any?)14:19
danilosbarry: Launchpad doesn't try to improve on that situation in upstream projects much; only stuff submitted through LP is BSD-licensed so it can easily be integrated into any project whatsoever14:20
barrydanilos: what i'm trying to work out is how to reconcile lp's bsd requirements with gnu's copyright assignments + gpl requirements14:20
danilosbarry: if you do require copyright disclaimer to be sent to FSF, we do have GNU Translator group which will limit access to only those who are in the group14:20
barrydanilos: so, does that mean, that there will be no translations done directly in lp?14:21
danilosbarry: alternatively, we can also set up a separate mailman translation group14:21
barrydanilos: and (sadly) not shared?14:21
danilosbarry: nope, it means that anybody who wants to translate will have to be in a team that's part of that group (i.e. Serbian GNU translators; or, if we go with a separate group, Serbian Mailman translators team)14:22
barrydanilos: i guess the question is whether those folks in the gnu translation group have blanket assigned /all/ translations to the fsf, or just those for a specific project14:22
barrydanilos: gotcha14:22
barrydanilos: if it's a blanket assignment, then i'd be happy to have mailman participate in that14:23
barrydanilos: does that make sense, and do you know if that's the case?14:23
danilosbarry: the thing is that there are not many people actively using that group14:24
barrydanilos: so, do you think it makes more sense to have a mailman translations group?14:24
danilosbarry: they do have blanket *disclaimers* out to FSF (i.e. they disclaim any copyrights on any translations they might contribute to GNU project)14:24
barrydanilos: that might be okay14:25
danilosbarry: yeah, mailman translations group is better because nobody is active in the gnu translators group14:25
danilosbarry: and the burden of organization there is on us (i.e. to manually check if someone is allowed to start a team there)14:26
barrydanilos: cool.  so i make translations 'closed' to just the (new) mailman translations group?14:26
barrydanilos: and then we create language-specific teams inside that group; with memberships close to folks who have either disclaimed or assigned translation copyright to the fsf?14:27
danilosbarry: 'restricted' is probably better, though you'd need to make sure that translation teams do not approve translations from people who have not done whatever they need to do14:27
danilosbarry: yep, though note that translation group is not a regular team, it's a special object in LP which aggregates a bunch of teams assigned to different languages14:28
barrydanilos: what's the practical difference between closed and restricted?14:28
danilosbarry: on 'closed', people outside the group can't even make suggestions14:31
barrydanilos: gotcha14:31
barrydanilos: thanks, restricted sounds better14:31
barrydanilos: two last questions.  on translations.edge.lp.net/mailman, it says "this project is not configured to use lp for translations", but i definitely enabled that in my project's details.  is this because i have not yet uploaded a .pot file?14:32
barrydanilos: that's seems to be implied by the other text on that page, but it's a little misleading because it also says "You can change this in the project settings".  i've already done the latter but not the former14:33
danilosbarry: yep, that's part of something we definitely want improved, but...14:33
danilosbarry: I want to use the ajax-switch for official_rosetta flag, but just been busy with some other stuff14:33
danilosbarry: also, please use bzr integration if at all possible14:33
barrydanilos: oh yes, i definitely want to use bzr :)14:34
barrydanilos: thanks, this is all great.  last question: can i cc you on a message i am going to send to mailman-i18n soon?  you don't have to respond unless it's to correct lies, distortions, misrepresentations, fibs, tall tales, and other nonsense in my message :)14:35
danilosbarry: by all means14:37
barrydanilos: fantastic, thanks for all your help!14:38
jamone1313Hello, does anyone know how I can delete a project from launchpad. Specifically I got LP installed of a test system of myne and I want to remove the test projects15:05
beunojamone1313, not from the web UI, no15:06
beunoyou can clear all the data by running "make schema"15:07
jamone1313that was the last command I ran before make run and all the test data is there15:07
jamone1313what command would I use to remove a specific project?15:08
maxbjamone1313: why do you want to remove the test projects? There's no reason to.15:08
wgrantIt's rather difficult, as well.15:09
wgrantThere's no easy way to do it.15:09
beunojamone1313, out sysadmins use SQL, AFAIK15:09
wgrantbeuno: Do they actually delete them?15:10
beunowgrant, I think so...  not 100% sure15:10
wgrantAll of the sampledata projects have stuff attached to the, so you'd have to delete all references first.15:10
wgrant== more trouble than it's worth15:10
deryckjamone1313, make schema didn't clear your data?  You are talking about the local .dev server via make run, right?15:11
jamone1313yeah sounds that way15:11
jamone1313yes15:11
deryckjamone1313, how did you enter the data?15:11
wgrantderyck: Sampledata, I suspect.15:11
jamone1313it cleares any projects I added via the Web UI but the sample data that's included is still there15:11
deryckjamone1313, ah, you don't want the sample data at all.  gotcha now, sorry misunderstood.15:12
jamone1313I just figured their might be a command to create a completely clean DB15:12
wgrantThere isn't.15:12
jamone1313exactly15:12
wgrantThat has probably only been done once.15:12
* deryck looks closer at the code15:13
wgrantAnd a "completely clean" DB wouldn't really work. There are some objects that LP will die without.15:13
maxbjamone1313: you know the launchpad license basically forbids any of the use-cases in which you would want to have a completely clean db for, anyway, right?15:13
jamone1313no I didn't know that?15:14
wgrantThe license of the Launchpad *images*, in particular.15:14
wgrantThe code is fine.15:14
jamone1313ahh the images yes I know that15:15
maxbThe code is AGPL3, the images are licensed for development use only - hence unless you hire a graphic designer, you've not got much hope of getting to a point where you can run an non-dev instance :-(15:15
jamone1313yeah, that I understand15:16

rowinggolfer_exarkun: your question was leading though...16:52
=== matsubara is now known as matsubara-lunch
rowinggolfer_why would anyone work to make Launchpad slow and unreliable??16:52
exarkunCan I follow their progress somewhere?16:52
exarkunrowinggolfer_: I don't know why, but some people have done that.16:52
rowinggolfer_lol.16:52
exarkunrowinggolfer_: I'm not looking for a fight.  If you're offended by my question, I apologize.16:53
exarkunAny thoughts on my second question?16:53
rowinggolfer_where's the code hosted?16:53
rowinggolfer_;)16:53
exarkunI don't understand.16:53
deryckexarkun, people are working on performance in different ways....16:54

rowinggolfer_exarkun: have a look at that... you'll see exactly what these good folks are doing.16:54
rowinggolfer_it's quite humbling, actually.16:54
rowinggolfer_although I wish a wiki was forthcoming ASAP.16:55
exarkunIt's hard to find the information I want in the 5501 open bugs against launchpad-project.16:56
exarkunI haven't used the advanced bug search feature very much, but I don't think there's much it can do to narrow things down either.16:56
rowinggolfer_exarkun: look in the code.16:56
exarkunLook in the code?16:56
rowinggolfer_https://code.launchpad.net/launchpad-project16:57
deryckexarkun, is there some specific info you're looking for?  Specific problems you want to see if they're being addressed?  Or just looking for general "we're working on performance in X ways" info?16:57
exarkunI don't want to read the source.16:57
exarkunderyck: The latter would be great.  A list of milestones (not necessarily with dates, but ordering/priority would be nice) would also be helpful.16:58
rowinggolfer_exarkun: I wasn't trying to be obtuse, by the way.16:58
rowinggolfer_it's a HUGE project, very hard to follow16:58
rowinggolfer_I agree with you there.16:58
deryckexarkun, we don't do milestones around an issue, i.e. performance, we do them around dev cycles.16:59
flohackHi! I just got a 'Error '(22, 'Invalid argument')' during ftp transfer' while uploading a package to my ppa, does someone know about that error?16:59
deryckexarkun, see for example, https://edge.launchpad.net/malone/+milestone/3.016:59
deryckexarkun, and too see all LP team milestones for this cycle, replace malone in that URL with launchpad-registry, launchpad-foundations, soyuz, rosetta, and launchpad-code17:00
deryckexarkun, launchpad-foundations might be a nice one to watch for general, overall performance work.  maybe there is a performance tag, too.17:00
* deryck looks17:00
exarkunIs there a project page that lists all milestones that exist?  I haven't been able to find a link to a page like that.17:00
deryckexarkun, See this for performance tagged bugs for launchpad-foundations -- https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/launchpad-foundations/+bugs?field.tag=performance (and apply to the other teams as you like)17:02
rockstarlfaraone, I can't speak for the LP stakeholders, but I don't think native git support in LP is something we ever plan on doing.17:03
lfaraonerockstar: Okay.17:04
deryckexarkun, the reason there isn't a page collecting all milestone is that Launchpad dev is broken down into various teams, each represented by a different LP project.17:04
deryckexarkun, see https://edge.launchpad.net/launchpad-project for a list of projects, and follow to each to find milestones, bugs, etc.17:04
exarkunThat looks like a page I've been looking for. :)17:05
