davmor2yeah but at least mine has an excuse in that it's way older than you ;)15:35
* fagan is more than likely the youngest here15:36
* davmor2 I just feel like the oldest but have a sneaky suspicion that there may be others older than me15:39
* davmor2 is trying to get into the christmas mood by listening to things like fairytale in newyork15:43
* fagan because he is irish has heard that song wayyyy too much 15:44
davmor2fagan: I'm English so ditto15:46

faganhello ogasawara15:52
fader_fagan: I've heard the same of Bruce Springsteen and Bob Dylan, but I think the drugs that make you think these things are true aren't made anymore :(15:52
davmor2fader_: if you want to have a laugh look up the christmas number one in the uk for 197915:54
fagandavmor2: hah15:55

* fagan didnt know you could set your font on IRC15:55
davmor2fader_: same font as I used before15:55
fader_davmor2: Strange, I can read that one.  It's just when you try to get me to look for things that would be painful to me that I can't make it out.  Funny, that.15:56

arajcollado, nags, jtatum, cgregan, cr3, automation meeting?16:30
nagsara: ya, me ready16:31
* cgregan waves16:32
araok, let's give the others 3 more minutes to arrive16:32
araOK, let's start now16:35
araAgenda:16:35
ara    * Proposing jtatum as member of the launchpad team mago-contributors (ara)16:35
ara    * Release of mago 0.2 for Lucid16:35
ara    * Release of mago 1.0 supporting LDTPv216:35
ara[TOPIC] * Proposing jtatum as member of the launchpad team mago-contributors16:36
araOK, it is a pity that jtatum does not seem around16:36
araThe thing is that he has been doing great contributions to mago, but he is not part of the mago-contributors team16:36
araso he cannot merge into trunk, or review some other people code16:37
araI think that the quality of his work is very good and he should be part of the mago core dev team16:37
nagsara: that was surprising to me :) he has done some good chunk of code16:37
arawhat do you guys think?16:38
* fagan always believes the more the merrier16:38
nagsara: I agree jtatum should be part of mago-contributors team16:38
arafagan, I like that :)16:39
faganara: isnt mago under the canonical contributor agreement?16:39
arafagan, it is, but jtatum already signed it16:39
fagangood then16:39
arajcollado: any thoughts?16:39
jcollado1ara: I don't see any reason to be against that.16:40
araOK, then. I will add him after the meeting16:40
aracongrats jtatum!16:41
ara[TOPIC]  * Release of mago 0.2 for Lucid16:41
ara     * Release of mago 1.0 supporting LDTPv216:41
araThis topic is about how are we going to handle mago+ldtp during the Lucid cycle16:41
nagsara: cool16:41
araFeature freeze is due to Feb 18th16:42
araso, new features and new packages need to be in before that date16:42
nagsara: okay16:43
faganara: if you upload it to lucid asap ill help test it16:43
nagsara: I have still some pending fixes to be done in this list http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/ldtp-dev/2009-October/000912.html16:43
araso, what do you guys think? should we keep LDTPv1 for Lucid?16:43
jcollado1nags: Is LDTPv2 stable enough?16:43
nagsara: Have extensively tested LDTPv2 in Ubuntu 9.04, with 1500 testcases in VMware16:43
nagsjcollado1: yes, we run weekly regression16:44
jcollado1nags: Great.16:44
nagsjcollado1: on Ubuntu 9.04 using LDTPv216:44
jcollado1Then, I think mago should use LDTPv2 in next release16:44
aramaybe we can keep both LDTP1 and LDTP2 in Lucid, having Mago choose between the two with a user parameter16:44
jcollado1ara: Since there are slight changes in the interface, I'm not sure that's a good solution16:45
faganbut be aware in any case that we will have to support it for a longer time16:45
arafagan, good point16:45
nagsara, jcollado1: I would like to know, if any important API that are currently missing, should be fixed immediately, I will start working on them16:46
arajcollado1, my only concern is that, if ldtpv2 lands late in the cycle, we are not going to be able to fix mago to start working again16:46
nagsara: I would like to check with you, how the new logFailures should work, the API name will be changed to logfailures :)16:47
jcollado1ara: My understanding is that LDTPv2 is ready to be integrated now. What do you mean by "lands late in the cycle"?16:48
aranags, sure, any time. Feel free to schedule a call, or by email on the list16:48
arajcollado1, LDTPv2 is not released yet16:48
arajcollado1, once it is released, we need to package it, then get some motu to sponsor it and upload it16:48
nagsara: sure, will take that offline then :)16:49
jcollado1nags: When LDTPv2 will be released?16:49
jcollado1ara: I'm not familiar with that process. How long does it take?16:49
nagsjcollado1: If we have all the API required for Mago are implemented, I think, we are ready to go :)16:49
arajcollado1, well, I have friends ;-) so, it won't take too long, hopefully. But we need to package it, that can take a bit longer, depending on our workloads16:50
jcollado1ara: I don't think packaging is an issue since LDTPv2 code is 100% python.16:51
jcollado1nags: Correct me if I'm wrong16:51
nagsjcollado1: yes, you are correct :)16:51
aranags, jcollado1: so it is the release what's missing :-)16:52
aranags, jcollado1: I would prefer this workflow16:53
nagsara: I would like to confirm, we are not missing any Mago API's ?16:53
aranags, jcollado1: we release ldtp2 in lucid as ldtp2 package, keeping ldtp1 for a while (during the development process)16:53
aranags, I am not sure, that's the problem16:53
nagsara: the first thing, I could think of is, logFailures incase of any failures16:53
nagsara: and the logging API16:53
nagsara: which are not implemented16:54
aranags, jcollado1: then, start migrating mago. Once we know for sure that ldtp2 is stable, then we change the packaging of ldtp2 to Replace ldtp16:54
faganso take the safe route for lucid with ldtp1 and change it in lucid+1?16:55
arafagan, no, I meant land ldtp2 early in the cycle, so we can test, and later, before FF, deprecate ldtp116:55
faganara: oh cool16:56
nagsara: I agree16:56
jcollado1There's already a python-ldtp package and a mago-ldtp2 branch under mago-contributors, I think the biggest issue is to schedule time to work on them16:56
arajcollado1, python-ldtp is ldtp1, but the python bits16:56
jcollado1ara: No, the python-ldtp in the mago PPA is LDTPv216:57
jcollado1ara: Really, I packaged it16:57
jcollado1ara: I've to update it, though16:57
arajcollado1, ok, I though you meant in Ubuntu archive16:57
arajcollado1, but do you agree with not deprecating ldtp1 in the beginning16:58
arajcollado1, my concern is that LDTP2 is not that well tested, and we are not the only Ubuntu users using LDTP ;-)16:58
jcollado1ara: I see the point. Then that depends on nags, but it seems he's confident it should be released early.16:59
nagsara: Intel Moblin team also started testing things with LDTPv2 :)16:59
nagsara: jcollado1: My concern is logging API is missing, I would like to discuss on that, before implementing this :) Currently I don't have the list of points to discuss on that17:00
nagsara: I will prepare the list and get back to you guys17:00
arajcollado1, can you then update LDTPv2 PPA?17:01
arajcollado1, so we can start working on mago17:02
jcollado1ara: Sure. I'll do that.17:02
arajcollado1, thanks17:02
nagsjcollado1: thanks :)17:02
arajcollado1, I will send an email to the LDTP list asking ubuntu users opinion about deprecating ldtp1 or not17:02
jcollado1ara: Ok.17:03
arajcollado1, but, what is your main concern of cohabiting both ldtp1 and ldtp2 in Lucid during the development of Lucid?17:03
jcollado1ara: My only concern is just the extra maintenance that would require17:04
jcollado1ara: I think we'll finally move to v2 so my opinion is that the sooner the better17:04
jcollado1ara: (provided that LDTP users agree)17:05
arajcollado1, OK, if everything goes wrong, we can revert to LDTP1, anyway17:05
jcollado1ara: Fine. Let's work on v2 then.17:07
nagsara: jcollado1: cool, thanks :)17:07
araOK. Thanks everybody17:09
davmor2sbeattie: I'll utilise the mailing list for the upgrade chit chat :)18:02
