ttx[ACTION] smoser to publish karmic cloud image refresh14:05
smosersounds good.14:05
ttxok, next subject14:05
ttx[TOPIC] Spec quickreview (ttx)14:05
ttxSo, this is where we communicate a short oneliner about each spec14:06
ttxhttp://people.canonical.com/~pitti/workitems/canonical-server-lucid-alpha-3.html14:06
ttxserver-lucid-cloud-krd14:06
ttx(smoser)14:06
ttxI want a short status, "on track" is OK14:07
smoserboothooks, krd and config on srack.14:07
ttxNote that in the future, you should update the "Status:" part of the blueprint before the meeting14:07
ttxso that status shows automagically on the report14:07
ttxso I don't want to see "(not updated)" there anymore :)14:08
sorenErr...14:08
ttxserver-lucid-vmbuilder-multiple-outputs (soren)14:08
smoserkrd is giving me some fits right now, it *should* be fixed on ec2, and i've even verified in one case, can't figure out why my official builds pushed this morning are not working.14:08
sorenWhat are the valid statuses we can put there?14:08
ttx"On track", "Doomed"...14:08
ttx"OMG"14:09
ttxAnything else than "On track" will be further discussed during the meeting.14:09
sorenttx: I thought it would be parsed and interpreted by some script or whatnot so it had to be some specific set of statuses. Ok, no worries.14:09
ttxsoren: oh, no. It's just a freeform status14:09
ttxsoren: what about server-lucid-vmbuilder-multiple-outputs ?14:10

mathiazttx: on track as well14:11
ttxThis is getting old14:12
ttxAnyone has anything not on track ?14:12
sorenI can stop working on things, just to spice things up?14:12
sorenNo charge.14:12
sorenNo?14:12
sorenOh, well.14:12
ttxEveryone: please update the status in your specs so that we can call it done14:12
zulheh14:12
mathiazttx: well - there are a couple of my specs that haven't started yet14:12
ttxand do so before every meeting at the very least14:12
mathiazttx: so I can't really say wether they're on track or not14:12
ttxmathiaz: right. And until the alpha3 plan is finalized that doesn't make so much sense anyway14:13
mathiazttx: the close we get to the deadline, the more accurate I can say wether they're on track or not14:13
ttxWhich brings us to...14:13
mathiazttx: right - how about that?14:13
ttx[ACTION] everyone: update status for your specs before the meeting starts14:14
ttx(next week)14:14
ttx[TOPIC] Alpha3 subcycle planning (ttx)14:14
ttxSo this is still work in progress, should be officialized this week14:14
mathiazttx: does it mean that spec will be added?14:15
ttxAs a reminder High priority specs should be dealt with before the "Medium" ones, which are in turn more important than the "Low" ones14:15
mathiazttx: dropped?14:15
mathiazttx: WI revisited?14:15
ttxmathiaz: The targets are being reviewed14:15
mathiazttx: you mean the WI lists or the goals?14:15
ttxthat could end up in specs being dropped14:15
ttxthe goals14:15
ttxPrio 1 specs ("High") should not change, so work can safely start on them.14:16
mathiazttx: ok14:16
ttxas well as everything that spilled over from alpha214:16
ttx(don't follow my look)14:16
mathiazttx: and there isn't any hidden spec (critical ones) that would show up on the radar?14:16
ttxmathiaz: no14:16
ttxThere might be new Prio 2 ones, or things moving from prio 3 to prio 2...14:17
ttxbut we don't expact anything14:17
ttxAny other questions ?14:17
zulnope14:18
ttxmoving on, then14:18
ttx[TOPIC] server-lucid-papercuts (ttx)14:18
ttxSo today I wanted to discuss with everyone the acceptance criteria and best way/timing to announce the project14:18
ttxI sent an email to the ubuntu-server ML about this14:18
ttxdoes the criteria announced there make sense, and is it sufficiently precise to allow us to deny/accept bugs ?14:19
* ttx digs up link14:19
sorenttx: Was just about to ask that :)14:19
ttxhttps://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-server/2010-January/003648.html14:19
ttxThe project was created, and a group to act as triagers was created14:20
ttxComments ?14:21
sorenAt a glance, the criteria look fine.14:21
alexmany package can be triaged as a papercut or only those in main?14:21
ttxalexm: I'd say, any.14:21
sorenAnything server related, IMO.14:22
sorenBe it main or universe (or multiverse).14:22
alexmgreat14:22
* zul likes the branding14:22
ttxok, then, if those make sense, we'll try them out.14:22
ttxwe can revisit them if they end up being a complete failure14:23
ttxAbout publicity plan now14:23
ttxWe need bugs to be nominated now14:23
=== swoody_ is now known as swoody
ttxSo I think we should communicate about that phase widely14:23
ttxI can do a (personal) blogpost about it14:24
zulas can i14:24
sorenWhat's the plan? Collect and process papercuts until X milestone, and then go into fixing mode?14:24
ttxWhat else should we aim for ? UWN ?14:24
alexmi will too in my loco14:24
ttxsoren: yes14:24
mathiazI've already published a blog post on the ubuntuserver blog14:24
ttxFixing should start after alpha314:25
zuluwn obviously and a post to ubuntu-devel as well  i think14:25
ttx... which probably means that those should all be bugs not affected by FeatureFreeze, methinks14:25
ttxmathiaz: Aw, I missed it14:25
ttxok14:26
ttxAnything else on that area ?14:26
ttx[ACTION] ttx, zul to blog about papercuts, make sure UWN gets the word14:26
ttx[ACTION] tx to send email about criteria and nomination to ubuntu-devel, ubuntu-server14:27
ttxMoving on14:27
ttx[TOPIC] server-lucid-apport-hooks (zul)14:27
zulhi14:27
zulso at uds in dallas we talked about having apport hooks in server packages can help the quality of the bug reports we recieved14:28
zulthe spec is at https://blueprints.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/server-lucid-apport-hooks14:28
zuland so we have come up with a list of packages based on number of bugs in launchpad and other factors14:28
zulthe list can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ServerTeam/ApportHooks14:29
zulif you want to help out with this effort please sign up14:29
zuli think thats it from me14:29
zuloh yeah and i blogged about it last week as well so there is some publicity around this as well14:30
zulany comments?14:30
ttxanyone interested in helping Chuck ?14:30
zuldont all yell at once ;)14:31
mathiazzul: I've posted a post about it on the ubuntuserver blog14:31
zulmathiaz: cool i must have missed it14:31
ttxok, let's move on... zul will do a weekly update on the progress of the apport hooks effort during the meeting.14:31
Davieyzul: Having never written an apport hook, i would like to have a play with what is involved before offering :)14:32
ttxDaviey: it's easy, and fun !14:32
zulDaviey: yeah I was the same way its not that hard, there are plenty of examples though14:32
* ttx wonders if there is an apport session during devWeek14:32
Davieyneat14:32
zulwhen is devweek again?14:33
ttxnext week14:33
ttx[TOPIC] Weekly Updates & Questions for the QA Team (soren)14:33
zuloh i dont think so but in the past there has been sessions on how to write apport hooks14:33
ttxsoren: how is quality going14:33
mathiazsoren: any one processing the mysql build failure?14:34
sorenmathiaz: Not that I know of.14:34
sorenttx: It's improving!14:34
mathiazsoren: I've been receiving these messages in my Inbox for a few days14:34
sorenmathiaz: So you should be super motivated to fix it :)14:34
* ttx hesitates between fixing it and writing a filter rule for it14:34
sorenttx: Since last week I've extended the ISO testing stuff somewhat.14:35
* nijaba thinks that ttx second option lasts longer ;)14:35
mathiazsoren: well - I think the next step should be to identify *why* it fails14:35
mathiazsoren: after that we can see *how* it should be fixed14:35
zulnijaba: yes but you will get warm and fuzzies if you fix it14:35
ttxsoren: extending, how ?14:35
sorenI can now at the click of a button run ISO tests of the cartesian product of i386/amd64,lvm/non-lvm,basic/mail/bind9/lamp/postgresql installs.14:35
ttxah, ok14:35
sorenI'll be adding the last few server ISO test cases either this week ornext.14:36
mathiazsoren: do you have a describition of your setup somewhere?14:36
soren..and I'll add a live CD test as well so that the desktop people can see how über cool the stuff we're using is.14:36
mathiazsoren: could this be included as part of the checkbox automatic test runs from marc tardif ?14:36
sorenmathiaz: I started documenting it, but I was changing it faster than I could describe it, so I put that on hold for a bit.14:37
mathiazsoren: fair enough14:37
sorenIt will move to be run along with Marc's other tests.14:37
ttxsoren: anything else before we move on ?14:37
soren...and part of that involves documenting the whole thing.14:37
sorenJust one thing.14:37
sorenUDW is next week, and I have a session on this stuff, so if you're interested, come join me.14:37
sorenIt's Tuesday at... er... 2000 UTC, I think.14:38
zulwhen?14:38
sorenIt's Tuesday at... er... 2000 UTC, I think.14:38
soren:)14:38
sorenUDW = Ubuntu Developer Week, by the way.14:38
sorenThat's it from me.14:38
ttxPlenty of crazy stuff @ https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDeveloperWeek/Sessions !!14:38
ttx[TOPIC] Weekly Updates & Questions for the Kernel Team (jjohansen)14:38
sorenUnless anyone has questions, of course.14:38
ttxjjohansen: o/14:38
jjohansen\o14:38
ttxWe have one specific bug to discuss14:39
ttxI'll let smoser do the talking14:39
smoserwhoowhoo14:39
smoserok.14:39
jjohansenokay, well I did some test kernel builds for said bug14:39
jjohansenBug #49456514:39
ubottuLaunchpad bug 494565 in linux "support ramdiskless boot for relevant kvm drive interfaces in -virtual" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/49456514:39
smoserso, we have a blueprint that wishes to have UEC and EC2 images booting without a ramdisk (https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/server-lucid-cloud-krd)14:40
smoserin order to do that, we need support for the block devices used by EC2 and UEC built in to the respective kernels.14:40
jjohansenright, EC2 is not a problem14:40
ttxjjohansen: how did those tests go ?14:40
jjohansenttx: okay14:40
smoserthe UEC images use '-virtual' which is a "sub-flavour" of '-server' for amd64 and -generic-pae for i38614:40
ttxjjohansen: eta for fix ?14:40
jjohansenttx: not yet14:41
jjohansenthere needs to be a decision made about how we are going to proceed14:41
sorenWhy is this a problem?14:41
smoserit is not possible for jjohansen to change the config of -virtual and keep it a "sub flavour"14:41
jjohansen-virtual is a subflavour and can not have its own confings14:41
jjohansenso either we start a new flavor14:41
sorenI thought you guys were building a whole bunch of stuff into the kernel anyway to avoid the need for a ramdisk for the common case (for boot speed purposes)?14:42
jjohansenor change -server and -generic-pae14:42
smoserso we either need to build the support for the relavent block devices into -server/-generic-pae, or split -virtual off into a separate entity14:42
jjohansenconfigs14:42
zuljjohansen: shouldnt the xen block devices be already built in?14:42
jjohansenzul: for EC2 yes14:42
smoserec2 yes, but thats really a non-issue as ec2 affects nothing else14:42
ttxjjohansen: I suppose it's a kernel team decision ?14:42
jjohansenttx: well we need some server team input14:42
smoserour choice to bbuild in CONFIG_SCSI_SYM53C8XX_2=y could have negative affect14:43
smoseras in it would no longer be blacklistable.14:43
jjohansenbasically how much of an impact would building them into -server have14:43
soreneh?14:43
sorenUEC uses scsi disks?14:43
smoserwe would also like to build in CONFIG_VIRTIO_NET=y and CONFIG_VIRTIO_BLK=y but I expect those would have less negative consequences.14:43
jjohansensmoser: it can be disabled14:43
smoserjjohansen, oh? via cmdline you can say "don't do anything" ?14:43
jjohansenyeah basically14:44
* soren taps his microphone14:44
smosersoren, yes. UEC uses scsi disks.14:44
sorensmoser: Oh, wow.14:44
smoserit runs kvm with -drive if=scsi14:44
* soren wonders why14:44
ttxjjohansen: and the cost of splitting -virtual into a separate entity ? It's a maintenance cost for the kernel team, right ?14:44
smoserthe only options are ide, scsi or virtio.14:44
jjohansenright14:44
mathiazsmoser: to support EC2 images?14:44
smosermathiaz is right, thats the assumption/explanation we have is that they use if=scsi so 'root=/dev/sda1' will work14:44
mathiazsmoser: IIRC UEC needs scsi drives in order to be able to provide the scratch space from EC2 as /dev/sdb14:45
smoserit is obviously possible to change eucalyptus, to use if=virtio, but that really is somewhat more heavy handed.14:45
smoserthe basic question here is:14:45
mathiazsmoser: and run EC2 images *without* any modification14:45
smoserDoes anyone expect negative fallout of changing:14:45
smoserCONFIG_VIRTIO_NET=m14:45
smoserCONFIG_VIRTIO_BLK=m14:45
smoserCONFIG_SCSI_SYM53C8XX_2=m14:45
smoserto the '=y' values.  that would occur in -generic-pae (which affects people other than -server) and in '-server'14:46
sorenNo.14:46
jjohansenthe only one that should cause any problems is ONFIG_SCSI_SYM53C8XX_2=y14:46
sorenjjohansen: Why is that?14:46
smosermathiaz, where "without any modification" needs "if you're willing to pretend that swapping out a kernel is not a modification"14:47
jjohansenI don't expect virtio to be used in general14:47
jjohansenbut sYM53C8XX has caused scsi problems in the past14:47
jjohansenrare but possible14:47
mathiazsmoser: hm right.14:47
sorenDo we know why UEC uses scsi disks?14:47
smosersoren, googling for 'blacklist sym53c8xx' does have some hits. but jjohansen indicates that you could still effectively blacklist that.14:47
mathiazsoren: I've just outlined the reason above14:47
smosersoren, you're not listening. mathiaz explained that.14:47
mathiazsoren: IIRC UEC needs scsi drives in order to be able to provide the scratch space from EC2 as /dev/sdb14:48
ttxok, we'll have to have a discussion about that. The no-ramdisk feature might not be worth the risk14:48
mathiazsoren: and run EC2 images *without* any modification14:48
smosersoren, and i'm guessing you're suggesting 'virtio' rather than 'ide' as the replacement ? virtio would require guest drivers, which may not be present at all.14:48
ttx(or additional workload)14:48
sorensmoser: No, not at all.14:48
sorensmoser: I'd use ide.14:48
smoserwhich would be slow14:49
smoserer14:49
sorenNot really.14:49
mathiazsmoser: the other thing is that we could add udev rules to create that symlink for virtio block devices (to emulate /dev/sdb from EC2)14:49
sorenThese are not actual scsi controller or ide controllers. This is all emulated.14:49
smoserwith guest modification, yes, mathiaz . note, that not all OSes support virtio14:49
mathiazsmoser: but that means not *all* EC2 images would run unmodified14:49
ttxi'll raise a thread so that we can continue this interesting discussion14:49
mathiazttx: ++14:50
smosersoren, yes, but the scsi is emulated faster. this is what i've understood from some of the kvm folks.14:50

mathiazjdstrand: well - it's on the list of nominated bugs for karmic15:04

barrysure thing16:03
barryI was off last Wednesday so it was a short week for me.  I worked on packaging a Python library not currently in Ubuntu from scratch, and got it successfully built in my PPA.  I update the Python distribute package from Debian, got that successfully built in my PPA, and submitted a merge proposal for updating Lucid.  I did both using the UDD method, sent an email of the experience to the mailing list and 16:03
barrysome time reading up on the dh_python thread in debian-python, made some responses, and worked on my own fat byte-compilation file PEP.  I also did some planning for Pycon.16:03
loolThanks; cjwatson?16:03
barryno blockers16:03
cjwatsondone: sent foundations-lucid-reliable-device-id-in-grub to Debian, iterated a bit, end in sight now; fixed repeated debconf-communicator startups in ubiquity16:04

cjwatsontodo: finish grub device-id work; deal with network device problems in foundations-lucid-fix-iscsi-root; move on to designing UI for LVM/RAID in ubiquity (carried over)16:04
cjwatsonalso I've fixed the "Milestoned bugs" link on the agenda, please reload16:04
cjwatson[done]16:04
loolAh thanks; I copied it from the templates, but we didn't go through these in the last couple meetings so wasn't sure whether I'd cover these16:04
loolev: How are things doing for you?16:05
evLanding branches.  Taking a look at the jockey ubiquity integration.  Looking into the passthrough debconf stuff to assist in installing packages from oem-config.  Was working on page transitions in ubiquity, but some of that has been taken over by design.  Trying to reproduce and fix bug 497985.16:05
ubottuBug 497985 on http://launchpad.net/bugs/497985 is private16:05

slangasekdid some post-a2 follow-up on mountall, plymouth problems16:09
loolThanks16:09
lool[topic] Outstanding actions from last meeting16:09
loolApparently none16:09
slangasekworking on 8.04.4 this week, still aiming for next Thursday as a release date - candidate ISOs should be posted soon, testers wanted16:09
lool(Oh sorry; I thought you were done; I should leave more time)16:10
slangasekthat's it now :)16:10
loolThanks :)16:10
loolSo there was no particular topic on the agenda for today16:10
loolslangasek: Since 8.04.4 is coming, is there a list of bugs we should be reviewing here perhaps?16:11
loolThe template suggests looking at milestoned bugs and lucid bugs, and at the sponsorship queue; not sure it's the right time of the release cycle to look at lucid bugs in detail yet16:12
slangaseklool: not really; the set of bugs for fixing in 8.04.4 is already set in stone, we're on to milestone validation16:12
loolOk; I didn't see any topic to bring up in the meeting in the ARs on the wiki page16:12
lool[topic] Good news16:13
loolAnyone has some good news to share? :)16:13
cjwatson... how depressing ;-)16:13
loolWell it's a very sad week indeed16:13

loolAny last minute topic?16:15
slangasekwho moved us above the burndown line? :)16:16
cjwatsonI have one16:16
cjwatsonjust a quick note really, regarding items for IS16:16
cjwatsonI know that we have a few IS dependencies for feature freeze; hopefully most of them are dealt with now, but in general, if you have IS things you're blocked on (as opposed to nice-to-have tickets), please drop me an e-mail note with [is-review] in the subject and I'll make sure that they're covered in my fortnightly calls16:17
loolslangasek: I see a lot of workitems are being added to blueprints reflecting work which was just done; that pushes the bar to the top   :-/16:17
slangaseklool: that's not what pushes the bar of *todo* items to the top16:17
loolslangasek: Ack16:17

araI just wanted to remind you that next week Ubuntu 8.04.4 is release17:22
araand therefore, we will need to test the ISOs as usual17:22
araI will send a call for testing, but I wanted to comment it here, so you can put it in your calendars17:22
marjo_thx ara!17:23
sorenThanks for mentioning it!17:23

marjo_fagan: thx, glad to hear it17:25
faganDid ye all talk about upgrade testing from hardy yet17:25
marjo_yes, as part of Global Jam coming up17:27
marjo_"we are running an Upgrade Testing party during the event"17:28
faganAh if anyone has any questions about it ive done it twice now17:28
davmor2marjo_: should we do some dapper to hardy testing for this point release?17:28
fagandavmor2: Is anyone still actually on dapper?17:29
sorenfagan: I know at least one company that still runs some Dapper systems.17:29
davmor2fagan: does it matter it's a supported release17:29
sbeattiefagan: yes, it's still a maintained platform (at least on the server side)17:29
fagandavmor2: for desktop its eol17:29
faganOh I forgot about server17:30
sorenDude!17:30
* ScottK had a Dapper desktop until two months ago.17:30
* fagan feels silly17:30
marjo_soren: glad you're on the QA team17:31
soren:D17:31
sbeattiedavmor2: if time permits, I think we should try to do dapper -> hardy upgrades.17:32
faganId like to try a dapper->hardy->lucid desktop upgrade17:32
sbeattieit's less crucial for 8.04.4 specifically.17:32
davmor2sbeattie: I'll hit some up this week mvo do you want to know about breakages directly?17:32
charlie-tcaThe upgrade path will be dapper -> hardy -> lucid?17:33
sbeattiefagan: that would be awesome; if there's things we need to fix in hardy before lucid is released, we want time to fix and test.17:33
fagansbeattie: Id be glad to just getting my older laptop from my dad to test it well17:34
sbeattiecharlie-tca: LTS -> LTS -> LTS is intended to be a supported upgrade path.17:34

alkisgHi all19:03
stgraberhighvoltage: do we have an agenda ? or is that just like status update + free discussion ?19:03
highvoltagestgraber: it's the usual technical update (sabayon, disc status, etc), tomorrow's wiki day, etc19:04
stgraberdoh, haven't blogged yet ...19:04
stgraberdoing so now ;)19:04
highvoltagethe agenda on the wiki is a bit dated, I guess we can just jump into it19:04
highvoltagestgraber: heh, I wondered what you did with that image :)19:04
dhillon-v10hi all :)19:04
stgraberhighvoltage: nothing, that's the issue ! :)19:04
highvoltagehi dhillon-v1019:04
dhillon-v10highvoltage, what's up :)19:04
stgraberso, I guess, first of all, thanks everyone for helping releasing alpha-219:05
stgraberit was a hard week especially due to some last minute issues but it's a very good first Alpha for Edubuntu (we didn't have alpha-1)19:05
highvoltagewe have an alpha release \o/19:05
* Lns cheers19:05
stgraberso, seeing that Scott isn't here, I'll start with a quick status update on my work19:06
highvoltagestgraber: I proposed some changes to the seeds, I linked a bzr branch, what's the next step so that we can get it merged?19:06
stgraberI started to look at having LTSP on the live CD, I have a working patch to build it on Canonical's builders that I need to have review by lamont and possibly fix a bit19:06
dhillon-v10highvoltage, brb19:06
highvoltagestgraber: oh nice, I was wondering about that today.19:07
stgraberI also opened a bug against ubuntu-cdimage to drop all packages from the DVD except these required for LTSP and the netbook desktop19:07
stgraberthat should free up 2GB or so once done19:07
alkisg\o/19:07
stgraberonce these two are done, I'll have a look at updating ubiquity a bit19:08
stgraberso we can actually use these packages19:08
stgraberI also did the changes alkisg's requested on the seeds (make everything recommends)19:08
alkisg(thanks!)19:08
stgraberand forgot about highvoltage's merge proposal :) I'll have a look later (don't hesitate to nag me)19:08
highvoltagestgraber: so the netbook desktop packages are already on the dvd, we just need to find a friendly way to install them right?19:08
stgraberhighvoltage: yep19:08
highvoltagestgraber: great, thanks :)19:08
stgraberat the moment you can set the DVD as a repository and install the netbook edition from that19:09
stgraberwithout any need of external repository19:09
stgraberok, next is LTSP, I've been doing quite a lot of upstream work recently, trying to optimize it and making it more stable. I'm hoping to have .99 released this week with working Fat client (thanks alkisg and highvoltage) and nbd-proxy19:10
stgraberthen we can fix some bugs and get 5.2 released !19:10
highvoltagenice!19:10
Lnsthat is awesome19:11
highvoltagestgraber: I tested that one-liner, I had to add another 2>/dev/zero to quite things down but it works just fine19:11
stgraberAlso for this week, I expect to have the Edubuntu menu editor on REVU and get it approved by some MOTUs (highvoltage ? ;))19:11
alkisgLTSP 5.2 and edubuntu Lucid will ROCK :D19:11
highvoltagestgraber: /proc unmounts fine without -l19:11
alkisghighvoltage: did you try with edubuntu server + edubuntu chroot?19:11
stgraberhighvoltage: cool, please talk with alkisg about it, he's been doing some testing too.19:11
alkisg(let's talk in #edubuntu about it)19:12
stgrabermgariepy: ^19:12
stgrabermgariepy: status update on the menu editor ?19:12
* stgraber says looking at him, some 1m away ;)19:12
highvoltagealkisg: not yet, only ubuntu + ubuntu, I'm meaning to test more different things. for some reason if you specify a custom repository it doesn't enable universe by default, so xubuntu-desktop doesn't work for me but it's something I'll certainly dig in to19:12
mgariepyi've been working to have the dnd working in profilesManager, it's now working.19:13
alkisghighvoltage: ubuntu fat chroot works, edubuntu doesn't19:13
highvoltagealkisg: yes we'll take it to #edubuntu afterwards :)19:13
mgariepyi need to code some glue to manages files and treeview update.19:13
mgariepybeta package should be there this weekend19:13
mgariepyany questions ?19:14
highvoltagenice :)19:14
alkisggreat!19:14
highvoltagemgariepy: so we should be able to get a package in before feature freeze right?19:14
stgraberwe'll probably need some example menus after that, so be prepared to poke your contacts in various countries to get example application set19:15
mgariepyi'll post in edubuntu-user when the packages are released19:15
stgraberhighvoltage: FF is mid-february so if we upload this weekend + write the MIR, that'll be an easy one19:15
stgraberhighvoltage: I can easily update it even after FF, but I need it to be promoted before.19:15
highvoltagestgraber: ok19:16
stgraberanything else in the status update ?19:16
stgraberhow are we doing with artwork ?19:16
highvoltageI need to get in touch with Mads again19:16
highvoltageI told him that ideally we'd like it ASAP, but I also know you can't rush an artist :)19:16
highvoltageI'll poke him just so that he's reminded19:17
dhillon-v10highvoltage, just a little side question: are you guys all done packaging stuff for edubuntu19:17
stgraberok, if we don't get something in the next two weeks, I'd suggest we poke ubuntu-artwork, what do you think ?19:17
highvoltagesbalneav e-mailed the guy from digital blasphemy19:17
highvoltagehe said that he'd even pay up to R300 for him to do some nice artwork19:17
stgraberI know he really wanted to help so I just think he's quite busy at the moment19:17
highvoltageerm, $30019:17
highvoltagestgraber: +119:18
stgraberdhillon-v10: well, I'm not aware of any actual packaging work going on at the moment for Edubuntu19:18
stgraberthough we'll include new applications for sure19:19
=== KatieKitty is now known as KatieOffline
stgraberbut that's just a seed change19:19
dhillon-v10stgraber, ahh alright :)19:19
stgraberwebsite update ?19:19
highvoltagehmm, the two people active on it aren't here atm19:19
dhillon-v10me :) still a few bugs left19:19
highvoltageoh right, dhillon-v10 is here :)19:20
stgraberwhat's that test URL again ?19:20
highvoltage(sorry dhillon-v10 I confused you with mhall119|work there for a moment)19:20
dhillon-v10stgraber, highvoltage my exams are going on so can't do a lot but tomorrow is the last one so yay :) I'll get the bugs down to 0 tomorrow19:20
dhillon-v10highvoltage, np :)19:20
stgraberdhillon-v10: rocks !19:20
alkisgI think for the "digital blasphemy" artwork we need to propose some ideas, sbalneav send us an email but noone replied...19:20
dhillon-v10stgraber, sorry for the delay, I just had a lot of studying work19:20
dhillon-v10highvoltage, i need to talk a little about the wiki pages19:21
dhillon-v10a lot of them need to be updated, some renamed, and others removed19:21
highvoltagelet's move on to wiki stuff, I think it's important since our wiki day is tomorrow19:21
stgraberjust something before we talk about the wiki19:22
stgraberAs most of you probably have read, I became an Ubuntu Membership Board member yesterday and Edubuntu would like to have upload rights for edubuntu-dev19:23
stgraberI'd suggest we have someone look at the various wiki pages and then sends a formal request to the DMB19:23
stgraberso we (as in DMB) can review it at the next meeting and get that done19:23
stgraberIIRC for delegated upload rights, a team needs to have policy wiki pages written as well as a LP team correctly setup and check who's a member of that team19:24
dhillon-v10stgraber, i can help with setting up the wiki pages19:24
stgraberanyone who'd be able to spend some time looking at that and write the required documentation ?19:24
dhillon-v10o/19:24
highvoltagestgraber: I suppose there are some existing team policy pages we can look at as guidelines?19:25
stgraberwe'd probably need an EC member to help there and send the actual request19:25
stgraberhighvoltage: yes, mythbuntu-dev and kubuntu-dev are good examples19:25
dhillon-v10stgraber, ahh :) nvm19:25
stgraberthe package set on LP for edubuntu is also currently wrong, but that's something we'll need to ask afterwards19:25
highvoltageI could do that, dhillon-v10 could set up and help and I'll get feedback making sure the EC reads our policies and agrees so that we can get going with that19:25
stgraberdhillon-v10: you can probably help anyway ;)19:25
stgraberhighvoltage: sounds good19:26
dhillon-v10stgraber, highvoltage alright sounds good :)19:26
=== fader|lunch is now known as fader_
stgrabergood, wiki day then ;)19:28
highvoltage(I'm just looking for a mail I sent before regarding wiki pages...)19:28
highvoltageI sent this before, https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/edubuntu-devel/2010-January/003229.html19:29
highvoltageit contains a list of pages19:29
highvoltagesome of them shouldn't be there of course, like those under the JordanMantha/ namespace, etc19:29
sbalneavArggh19:29
sbalneavlunch19:29
dhillon-v10highvoltage, a friend of mine is a wiki admin so he can help us with deleting the pages :) and later on when I become an admin I can do it myself ;)19:30
highvoltagethe pages that should be moved, obviously, are those that have titles like EdubuntuCommunity, EdubuntuData, etc that aren't under the Edubuntu/ namespace19:30
highvoltagedhillon-v10: I think anyone can delete pages these days? (I know I can)19:30
dhillon-v10highvoltage, oh yeah you are right :P19:31
dhillon-v10highvoltage, forgot about that19:31
highvoltageI think we should also have page with a list of pages we propose to delete, then we get togethe every few hours or so and decide on it19:31
highvoltageonce all those pages are moved and the horrible pages are deleted, the wiki should be in an ok state afaict19:32
highvoltageany comments/suggestions/ideas?19:32
dhillon-v10highvoltage, hopefully when we are done tomorrow, the wiki pages get will be great :)19:32
dhillon-v10highvoltage, *s/get/19:33
highvoltagedhillon-v10: yeah we'll need some prettyfying done as well :)19:33
dhillon-v10highvoltage, lol prettyfying: that's a good word19:33
highvoltageterrifyingly good.19:34
alkisgThere's also the handbook, but it's outside of the wiki: http://doc.ubuntu.com/edubuntu/edubuntu/handbook/C/19:34
dhillon-v10highvoltage, oh wasn't there like a little handbook that was supposed to go with edubuntu19:34
dhillon-v10alkisg, yah that one :)19:34
alkisg;)19:34
dhillon-v10alkisg, highvoltage does that need updating or is it done ?19:35
highvoltagedhillon-v10: there's HowToCookEdubuntu/19:35
alkisgIt's a very good work but I'm afraid it's quite obsolete :(19:35
highvoltagedhillon-v10: I think it never got finished, I think it will be a good idea to look at what's there and decide whether we should keep it or trash it, or keep parts of it and assimilate it in other Edubuntu pages19:36
dhillon-v10highvoltage, btw the new site looks pretty cool :)19:36
dhillon-v10alkisg, highvoltage, alright that's on the agenda for tomorrow as well19:36
highvoltageif it's obsolete to the point that it would be less work to start from scratch then I say we should archive it and remove it from the wiki19:36
highvoltagedhillon-v10: which site?19:37
dhillon-v10highvoltage, the one HedgeMage and I are working on19:37
highvoltagesbalneav, stgraber, Lns: any other words on the wiki?19:37
highvoltagedhillon-v10: yes, indeed!19:37
stgraberblogged !19:37
highvoltagestgraber: heh :)19:38
Lnshighvoltage: looking at it right now19:38
highvoltageI have a bunch of meeting notes from the last 2 months that I need to put on the wiki still19:39
highvoltagethey've been sent to the list, but I haven't though of putting them up there, I'll do that tomorrow and start doing so after every meeting19:39
mhall119|workam I missing anything important?19:40
* mhall119|work wasn't paying attention19:40
Lnsehm... wiki.edubuntu.org ? is that right?19:40
highvoltageLns: http://wiki.edubuntu.org/Edubuntu19:40
highvoltage(although I use http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Edubuntu since the ubuntu theme is more functional)19:41
Lnsah that one's better heh19:41
sbalneavhighvoltage: I won't be taking too active a role on the wiki day, as I already did the bug day, but if there's any pages that need my imput, feel free to ping me tomorrow.19:41
highvoltageI've wondered before whether we should keep using both domain names. people get terribly confused19:41
sbalneavinput19:41
Lnsare we not redirecting this one yet to wiki.edubuntu.org or is that something different? there's a lot of obsolete info on wiki.edub...19:41
sbalneavGeez, shouldn't have has 2 beers at lunch.19:41
sbalneavhad19:42
highvoltagemany people thing it's two different wikis, I've seen people post links from both domains that was essentiall the same page and then they said "look here and here"19:42
* sbalneav shuts up19:42
Lnshahaha19:42
highvoltagesbalneav: thanks19:42
highvoltageLns: wiki.edubuntu.org and wiki.ubuntu.com is exactly the same wiki19:42
Lnsoh...weird19:42
Lnsthat can be confusing! =)19:42
highvoltageheh, see the case I made above :)19:43
Lnsyeah19:43
highvoltagepeople also go to wiki.edubuntu.org and expect to find the *edubuntu* wiki in the root there19:43
Lnswell sure19:43
stgraberhighvoltage: well, it'd make sense ;)19:44
Lnsthat's what i did19:44
highvoltageI'd rather have us just use wiki.ubuntu.com and set up some domain forwarding or something from wiki.edubuntu.org19:44
Lnstotally19:44
Lnswho's the head wiki person?19:45
dhillon-v10Lns, i would like to be ;)19:45
Lnshehe ok19:46
highvoltageheno did all the wiki stuff for us back then19:46
stgraberyeah, it was Henrik before he moved to QA and now to ISD19:46
LnsDo you guys think community/get involved/contact could all be one category/link?19:46
highvoltageLns: yes, ideally.19:46
highvoltageLns: and it could probably live on the website as well, since it's mostly static information19:47
Lnsyeah19:47
Lnsjust looking at ways to make the main page as easy to navigate as possible19:47
stgraberlooking at the fact we have 13min remaining and we have sbalneav around now, I'd suggest we discuss the wiki in #edubuntu after meeting or tomorrow during the wiki day19:47
Lnsk19:48
dhillon-v10stgraber, okay :)19:48
highvoltageimho the wiki is great for things like specifications, planning, meetings and things that need wide-area input, but the website should really be the place to find information about edubuntu, and educators, students and other people who might want to get involved are more likely to check the website than the wiki19:48
highvoltageright, let's move on19:48
dhillon-v10highvoltage, the contact module that we made had a similar mind-set :)19:48
highvoltagedhillon-v10: awesome19:49
highvoltagesbalneav?19:49
highvoltagewell, no more beers for you :)19:50
Lnsis he passed out? =p19:50
* Lns gets the sharpie19:51
highvoltagehttps://wiki.kubuntu.org/ also has the same problem19:51
highvoltagehttp://wiki.xubuntu.org/ doesn't have any problems, it just works19:51
alkisgHeh19:52
sbalneavhighvoltage?19:52
highvoltagesbalneav: any updates, any news on sabayon, gksudo perhaps?19:52
* Lns takes the lampshade off sbalneav's head19:52
sbalneavgksu's fixed19:53
sbalneavsabayon works19:53
sbalneavspecs are being written19:53
highvoltagesbalneav: wow, you should blog about it :)19:53
sbalneavhandbooks's being looked at19:53
sbalneavbeer is being drunk19:53
sbalneavAll in all, things are pretty good down sbalneav way :)19:53
highvoltageyeah I'm also the same after just 2 beers, which is why I don't drink often :)19:54
highvoltagesbalneav: cool, that's the way we like it!19:54
sbalneavGod's in his heaven and the universe is unfolding as it should :)19:54
highvoltageanything else before we adjourne?19:55
alkisgWow, what kind of beers where tehy?19:55
stgrabersbalneav: you released a new sabayon right ?19:55
highvoltageany issues we should know about?19:55
Lnsi got something quick19:55
highvoltageare everyone as satisfied with life as sbalneav and I?19:55
sbalneavstgraber: I Did!19:55
highvoltageLns: fire away19:55
sbalneavIn my role as upstream, 2.29.5's out.19:55
stgrabersbalneav: any idea when we'll have that in Lucid (I'll sponsor)19:55
Lnsas per the list discussion re: ldap.. i think it would be a good idea for those who would like to, to hop over to #ubuntu-server and say hi, and maybe sub to their listserv19:55
sbalneavI can package it tonight.19:55
sbalneavI'll pingy you.19:55
Lnsat least they will see that there are people in the edubuntu community that want to work with them on some stuff19:55
sbalneavI should be less tipsy by then :)19:56
stgrabersbalneav: hehe, ok, I'll be around.19:56
LnsI could see a lot of positive things coming from working with the ubuntu server team19:56
Lnsboth for edubuntu and ltsp19:56
stgraberLns: I'm already involved with the server team (for some server specs I'm implementing, mainly virtualization and they know that I'm the LTSP contact)19:57
Lnsawesome!19:57
highvoltageLns: ltsp technically falls under the server team, not edubuntu :)19:57
sbalneavLns: Owing to you're enthusiasm, I'll venture once more into the breach, my friend.19:57
sbalneavyour19:57
sbalneav*hic*19:57
Lnshighvoltage: ah gotcha =)19:57
Lnswell19:57
stgraberthe server/french/cloud (whatever you call it ;)) team guys are very friendly, so don't hesitate to join ubuntu-server ;)19:57
dhillon-v10gotta go guys, bye :)19:57
Lnsthe more people in there representing edubuntu, the better19:58
highvoltageyep, can't argue there19:59

cody-somervilleIowan, Its nice to hear that Iowan. Sometimes folks get caught up on the numbers. :)23:37
