ttxThe beta1/beta2 plan should be finalized this week.14:03
ttxkirkland: If you think there are things that should be done for beta1/beta2 that our planning did not already take into account, please send an email to jos/me14:04
* Daviey wonders why Jos only wants Canonical team input.14:04

ttx[TOPIC] Alpha3 status review14:05
MootBotNew Topic:  Alpha3 status review14:05
mathiazttx: what's the list of specification you're working on for beta1?14:05
ttxmathiaz: see milestones in https://blueprints.launchpad.net/~jib/+specs?searchtext=server-lucid14:06
mathiazttx: I've got some work items I'd like to do on some packages14:06
mathiazttx: but they don't necessarly fit in a blueprint14:06
ttxbeta1 allocates 1/3 of work time to do test/bugfix on general packages14:07
ttxbeta2 allocates 2/3 of work time to that.14:07
ttxmathiaz: so we planified that.14:07
mathiazttx: how to record the fact that work needs to be done on such package?14:07
mathiazttx: or is it just: go and test packages?14:08
ttxmathiaz: at that point it's freeform.14:08
ttxmathiaz: but I agree we could use some tracker...14:08
mathiazttx: for now I've added WI to some of the blueprints14:08
mathiazttx: (mainly things related to puppet and slapd)14:08
mathiazttx: but it doesn't really fit in the scope of the blueprint14:09
ttxI think they should be tracked separately14:09
ttxmathiaz: we'll clarify that, might end up creating a blueprint for "stuff"14:09
mathiazttx: ok14:09
ttxthat doesn't fit into papercuts or another one14:10
ttxother questions ?14:10
mathiazttx: the timeline for beta1 planning is end of week?>14:10
ttxbeta1 subcycle starts Friday :)14:10
ttxso we should have a plan by that time.14:10

ttxmathiaz: do you expect it to be completed by A3 ?14:13
mathiazttx: I hope so - expect for mamoncillo14:13
mathiazttx: that's out of my hands14:13
ttxmathiaz:  Move libpam-ccreds to main ?14:14
kirklandmathiaz: i think we can live without it?14:14
kirklandmathiaz: we have enough machines to do each of the 3 topos, right?14:14
mathiazttx: this is in the hand of the mir team now14:14
mathiazkirkland: correct14:14
ttxmathiaz: ok14:14
kirklandttx: mamoncillo is not a blocker14:14

ttx[TOPIC] Weekly Updates & Questions for the QA Team (soren, hggdh)14:19
MootBotNew Topic:  Weekly Updates & Questions for the QA Team (soren, hggdh)14:19
ttxsoren, hggdh : o/14:19
hggdhheh14:19
* soren looks around14:19
hggdhI still have to find my bearings ;-)14:19
jiboumanshggdh: welcome to the fold :)14:19
ttxhggdh: welcome :)14:19
hggdhthank you.14:19
ttxhggdh: running already ?14:19
mathiazhggdh: welcome aboard!14:19
hggdhA question -- the regression thingie -- what to do when a package fails?14:20
zulyell14:20
ttxhggdh: not sure I get the question... File a bug, fix it ?14:20
hggdh(in this case, mysql, 2 -- or 3 -- different issues)14:20
ttxah14:20
ttxautomated build failures14:20
hggdhyes, sorry14:20
ttxhggdh: I think it's appropriate to mention the build failure and basic investigation results here14:21
hggdhOK. There goes:14:21
ttxso that someone can say "i'll look into that one"... hopefully.14:21
ttxSo you're talking about the mysql automated rebuild/testsuite run that currently fails.14:22
hggdhmysql is failing on two different areas (1) ssl tests consistently fail, all of them; (2) one SQL test (or two) fail on different output14:22
sorenThe SSL tests are due to the SSL certs shipped in the package having expired.14:22
mathiazhggdh: ssl test: check that the certificate is up-to-date14:22
zul(1) it needs a patch from our bzr tree (2) havent looked at14:23
ttxhggdh: is it the usua ltest  certificate expiration issue ?14:23
ttxheh14:23
ttxI'm late.14:23
sorenmdeslaur has a patch for that.14:23
zulcan anyone upload to that ppa?14:23
sorenI don't know what the other problem is. I haven't really investigated.14:23
hggdhttx no, timeouts. Sounds like there is no SSL to work on14:24
ttxzul: looking into that as part of the mysql dailyvcs work ?14:24
mathiazhggdh: some of the mysql tests are time sensitive - so depending on the load of the ppa, the test suite may fail14:24
hggdhhum. Might impact SSL due to processing reqs14:24
zulttx: kind of14:24
hggdhbut all of them?14:24
ttxok, we'll not debug that one now, please continue that discussion on #ubuntu-server14:26
sorenhggdh: The server might not start its SSL port if it knows that the cert is expired.14:26
ttxanything else from QA, for QA ?14:26
ttxhggdh will contact some of you for information, please help him get up to speed14:26
ttxthat includes UEC testing.14:26
ttxFor the record, hggdh is the successor of soren in the QA team, dedicated to server.14:27
mathiazhggdh: \o/!14:27
ttxok, let's move on to our other friends, the kernel team...14:28
ivokshggdh: hello there14:28
dholbachJust a very quick note: I'd appreciate if you could help out with sponsoring a bit - I added an indication of packagesets to http://qa.ubuntu.com/reports/sponsoring/ so it will show you if something is server related, if you want to review anything else on the list, that'd great too! we need to get the list shorter again! THANKS!14:28

MootBotNew Topic:  Bugzapping during betas (kirkland)14:39
ttxkirkland: howdy14:39
sorenbah14:39
kirklandsimilar in principle to papercuts, bugzapping is an initiative to proactively go out and fix server bugs14:39
kirklandthe blueprint is here: https://blueprints.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/server-lucid-bug-zapping14:39
kirklandbasically, we'll take 3 - 4 weeks of the remaining time left in Lucid14:40
kirklandeach of those weeks will be dedicated to a set of related packages14:40
kirklandsuch as:14:40
kirkland * database (mysql, postgres)14:40
kirkland * LAMP-stack-stuff (apache2, php5)14:40
kirkland * virtualization (libvirt, qemu-kvm, virt-manager)14:40
kirkland * java14:40
ttxkirkland: so that will run through the beta1 and beta2 subcycles, right14:40
kirklandttx: right14:40
kirklandeach day of the has a specific set of tasks assigned14:41
kirklandMonday is *total* bug triage14:41
kirklandwhich means we should enlist the help of triagers14:41
kirklandtue - fri, we work on fixing bugs that are in the Triaged state14:41
kirklandfocusing on the High ones, or particularly easy ones14:41
kirklandwe commit to bzr branches14:42
kirklandand one or more core devs/motu sponsor the package for upload14:42
kirklandand then we enlist the help of testers14:42
ttxkirkland: so we should have a more detailed plan by next week ?14:42
kirklandwe should plan on having a final "upload" by thursday14:42
kirklandand spend friday regression testing14:42
kirklandttx: sure14:42
mathiazkirkland: is there a wiki page that outlines the whole process?14:43
kirklandttx: basically, i'll have the package sets/schedule set14:43
kirklandttx: the process is well documented already in the blueprint14:43
kirklandmathiaz: it's all in https://blueprints.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/server-lucid-bug-zapping right now14:43
ttxkirkland: send it for comments before the meeting, some might want to adjust times because they won't be present14:43
mathiazkirkland: to make sure that anyone jumping into the ship any day knows what is the current focus14:43
kirklandttx: mathiaz: ack14:43

james_waha!16:03
tremoluxSpent beginning of this week working on bug fixes for Software Center.16:03
tremoluxFixed alpha-3 targeted bugs LP: #496058 and LP: #523420.16:03
tremoluxThese plus four other bug fixes released Tuesday with version 1.1.13.16:03
tremoluxNow I am back to finishing up the back/forward navigation feature.16:03
tremolux(done)16:03
loolMostly more FTBFSes and qemu and/or ARM versatile work; some reviews and some ARM porting; now I need to document how this all fits together16:03
lool(done)16:03
tremoluxKeybuk: Scott, you around?16:04
Keybuktremolux: yup, feeling better today thanks16:04
tremoluxKeybuk: ah good  :)16:04
Keybukwas just arguing in another window and missed the start of the meeting16:04
tremoluxhehe16:05
KeybukBoot speed, boot speed, boot speed.16:05
KeybukGoing to tackle Plymouth for the rest of this week.16:05
Keybuk--16:05
tremoluxslangasek: got lightning?16:06
slangasekalpha 3 all week16:07
slangasekNBS is down a bit from where it was, as is component-mismatches16:07
slangasekif you do an MIR for a package, don't forget to take care of its dependency tree :)16:07
slangasek--16:07
tremoluxthanks Steve16:08
cjwatsondone: holiday; firefighting for alpha-3; more gfxboot-update integration16:08
cjwatsonblocked: design feedback for gfxboot-update: need icon representation of "press any key", and greeter styling16:08
cjwatsontodo: console-setup -> upstart and quite possibly some kernel fixes, to fix plymouth interaction problems; tail-end of fix-iscsi-root16:08
cjwatson--16:08
cjwatsonoh and also done, most of the work required to migrate to parted 2.1, awaiting FFe16:08
evSeeing how solvable this install restricted extras as part of ubiquity is at this point in the release, writing some components of the new installer ui between activities to flesh out potential issues with the design, getting caught up on the pile of installer bugs, rewriting the installer's plugin orderer, catching up on email since Pycon.16:09
ev--16:09
mvobugfixing for alpha-3, work on ratings&reviews django server (plus auth against ubuntu SSO), some apt updates, auto-upgrade test setup in DC16:09
mvo(done)16:09
mvoI may require a python-apt FFe16:09
mvo(really done)16:09
james_wfixing bugs, package importer work and allowing more people to fiddle with it.16:09
james_wmoving on to do some work that the LP need for building from branches.16:09
james_w(done)16:10
tremoluxnice, thanks everybody16:10
slangasektremolux: wrt software-center 1.1.13, you're aware this hasn't built yet at all? (so the alpha-3 targeted bugs haven't actually been fixed for anyone)16:10

cjwatsonI filed one this week, bug 511075, and just answered slangasek's question on it; the reason this didn't happen earlier is mainly that it was blocked on the lvm2/devmapper merge16:16
ubottuLaunchpad bug 511075 in parted "FFe: Update to upstream GNU parted-2.1" [High,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/51107516:16
evI may have one, for adding functionality to the installer to download and install ubuntu-restricted-extras (including running the decss script), as mentioned in the lightning round16:16
cjwatsonas noted in the lightning round, I'm still concerned about the gfxboot-update work16:17
cjwatsonbut am doing more or less everything in my power about that16:17
james_wI probably have minor one for bzr-builddeb for something that is probably a feature, even though it fixes a bug :-)16:18
tremoluxthat blurry feature/bug line16:19
tremolux:)16:19
james_wI find that there's a relationship between the likelyhood of getting an FFe and the number of RM-reported bugs fixed in the upload, so I always hold back bug fixes from the release team until after FF ;-)16:20

cjwatsonany objections?16:23
loolslangasek: We wont get 524893 for linux, but it's really not a big issue; it makes the versatile netboot initrd useless, but the kernel is still useful16:24
slangasekcjwatson: seems fairly inevitable16:24
loolActually I could workaround that in d-i by using ext2 initrd16:24
lool(CONFIG_CRAMFS=m but CONFIG_EXT2=y)16:24
cjwatsonerr, cramfs?  we stopped using that in d-i yonks ago16:25
loolcjwatson: Yes, but we have a bug that prevents initramfs from working and CRAMFS would actually provide initrd support as a fallback16:26
cjwatsonugh16:26
loolThe bug is likely in qemu, but I'm not sure I'll figure it out16:26
slangaseklool: I'd prefer not to be piling workarounds into d-i the day before the milestone; the set of folks looking to use versatile is fairly small, isn't it?  wouldn't it be enough if there were a daily available within a week or so of a3 that can be used?16:26
cjwatsonperhaps it's a cpio-endianness problem16:26
loolslangasek: Right, actually I just thought of this option to fix the image, but it's really not critical for A3 (hence low priority); i've sent a patch to linux to set CRAMFS=y post-A3 as a more permanent workaround16:27
loolcjwatson: Hmm that's interesting16:27
slangasekok16:27
Keybukand let's not use code that nobody's tested in years16:27
KeybukI didn't even know we still had cramfs in our kernels! :D16:28
cjwatsonthat's down to 12 a3 bugs16:29

slangaseksince it's upgrades that are hit, we shouldn't need to respin, yeah16:30
Keybukright16:30
cjwatsonand then there's the three update-manager bugs, and one unattended-upgrades16:30

sbeattie* hardy: 5 new packages in -proposed (evolution-data-server, linux, mozplugger, php5, virtualbox-ose-modules)17:21
sbeattie* dapper: no SRU activity17:21
sbeattieThanks to Kamal Mostafa, Mitch Towner (kermiac), Sean Cassidy, Myriam Schweingruber, Fredrik Olofsson, Besterino, Arne Christensen, Karl Palsson, Otus, machrider, Gregory Fong, yarly, Robert Toscano, and Michael Jeanson for testing packages in -proposed.17:21
sbeattiekarmic's list of packages is growing a bit long, so if, after alpha 3 iso testing, people wanted towork on getting those through, that'd be really appreciated.17:22
sbeattie(that's all I have.)17:22
araOK, I will add, for the new people... if they want to learn about the SRU process17:23
arathey can check documentation at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification17:23
sbeattieAh, yes, the list of packages awaiting verification in -proposed is at http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/pending-sru.html17:24
YokoZarJust a comment, but I believe it's understood at this point that upon Lucid release it will be demanding more SRUs for longer then any previous release17:24
YokoZar"for longer" in the sense that hardy and dapper SRUs have died down a bit17:24
araOK, that's it? Any other topics?17:25
bladernr_ara:  thanks for the links17:25
sbeattieYokoZar: well, yes, it'll be the latest LTS and the focus of most attention (as well as point releases)17:25
arabladernr_, if you don't know what a LTS release is: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LTS17:26
YokoZarJust wanted to mention I've begun work hooking winetest into checkbox locally17:26
araYokoZar, nice!17:27
sbeattieYokoZar: cool! Are you running into any issues?17:27
bladernr_ara:  I do... thanks though.17:27
YokoZarUpstream winetest is a (constantly growing) set of unit tests of various open gl functions17:27
cr3YokoZar: awesome!17:27
YokoZarWhich makes it good for seeing if wine works, but also it's good at crashing video drivers17:27
sbeattieYokoZar: ooh, that's really handy.17:27
cr3YokoZar: is winetest integrated into phoronix already?17:28
YokoZarcr3: no17:28
YokoZarSo one issue I have is that Wine has a separate place for submitting their test results, where they want you to enter an email address and some info about the machine17:28
YokoZarBut with checkbox we use launchpad17:28
YokoZarAnd I'm not quite sure how to pull that data out of the launchpad account, or if that's even something I should do17:29
cr3YokoZar: is it possible to override submitting to wine? or, do we want to do that?17:29
YokoZarI believe we want to do that17:29
YokoZarThe tests are as useful to them as us17:29
cr3YokoZar: is it possible to submit tests anonymously?17:29
YokoZarEspecially as we start stabilizing Lucid17:29
cr3in other words, is there any particular reason why wine wants an email address? if so, what do they intend to do with it and what prevents me from entering bill@microsoft.com?17:30
YokoZarcr3: The email address is a recent addition so they could ask more about the failures17:30
YokoZarThey were getting a bit too many reports with incomplete machine information17:31
cr3YokoZar: isn't the solution to gather the missing information?17:31
YokoZarI suppose we could enter an "email address" that just points to the launchpad checkbox report, which would have more complete info17:31
YokoZarcr3: well they also wanted to have a means of retesting the same machine17:31
YokoZarThe test suite gets updated frequently17:32
YokoZarAnd sometimes the tests themselves are "wrong" (although for our purposes a bad test that causes a crash is still helpful)17:32
cr3YokoZar: we could provide a real email address by writing a checkbox plugin, which could reuse the launchpad email address17:32
YokoZarThis might be a place to use liblaunchpad17:32
YokoZarI'll go ask upstream if a link to the launchpad account test result page would be sufficient17:33
cr3YokoZar: there are a few possibilities which might go beyond the scope of this meeting, perhaps we can continue in #ubuntu-testing afterwards17:33
YokoZarYeah17:33

stgraberhttps://wiki.edubuntu.org/Edubuntu/Meetings/Agenda19:12
sbalneavLunch?19:12
sbalneavA beer?19:12
* highvoltage applauds sbalneav too and hands over a beer19:12
highvoltagesbalneav: no, taxes :/19:12
sbalneavI have some art/something updates19:13
mhall119|workhello19:13
stgraberok, I'll start with the tech stuff then19:13
stgraberthat should be quick19:13
sbalneavoh, bug day update too,19:14
stgraberEdubuntu DVD is building correctly, I included KDE's langpacks to the mix as we carry quite a lot of KDE packages. Other than that, I haven't had the time to nag lamont about LTSP live but will do soon.19:14
stgraberthe Menu editor should be dropped from the agenda as it's in Edubuntu now and working well19:14
sbalneavHuzzah19:14
Lnswoo!19:14
highvoltageok19:15
stgraberLTSP live as I mentioned is now in universe (ltsp-livecd) and will be included in the live session though I need to get my code reviewed by lamont to pull the LTSP chroot in the DVD19:15
stgraberthanks to highvoltage for the ltsp-livecd script and diff19:15
mhall119|workyay!19:15
stgraberHow and I released LTSP 5.2, LDM 2.1 and LTSPfs 0.6 but I guess you're all aware of that already :)19:15
highvoltagewell it's incomplete but at least the package is in for FF!19:15
Lnsstgraber: yeah slashdot told me =)19:15
stgraberit's been over 150000 visits on my blog btw19:15
Lnsnice!!19:16
highvoltagestgraber: wow, awesome!19:16
* mhall119|work has been neglecting /. lately19:16
stgraberand here's the new (Ed)Ubuntu member :)19:16
mgariepysorry, i'm late.19:16
stgraberother than that, it's all on my side.19:16
* stgraber gives the mic to sbalneav 19:16
sbalneavDid some looking at the bugs yesterday, but got sidetracked by work issues.19:17
sbalneavI figure I'll put in a solid 8 hours worth of some bug fixing this weekend on the edu apps19:17
sbalneavthere's a few patches in there, we'll see if applying them works.19:17
sbalneavWe need a patch to the edubuntu-colors theme to prevent the "murrine defaults" error some of you may have seen19:18
highvoltagesbalneav: if any of them are universe packages, please give me a poke19:18
highvoltagethe edubuntu-artwork package is in universe at least. there's also a bug regarding the icon theme so we'll have to do an update anyway19:19
Lnshighvoltage: what's that bug?19:20
highvoltageLns: I haven't filed it yet (oops), the Breathe icon theme is installed but the icon chooser says it can't find it, and then right beneath that it lists it19:21
sbalneavhighvoltage: ok, will do.19:21
Lnsoh gotcha19:21
highvoltageLns: probably just some weird naming thing. I first thought it was case related but that's fine19:21
LnsI had an issue with (i think) the default gartoon theme, it didn't have icons for places/system menu iirc19:21
Lnsi might be mistaking for a different theme though..;19:22
highvoltageit's been on my to-do list since last week, but besides the packages we got in for FF I've had 0 time for other edubuntu related things the last 7 days19:22
stgraberhighvoltage: sorry about that :)19:22
highvoltageLns: I believe the gartoon-redux theme that sbalneav pointed out fixes that19:22
highvoltagestgraber: heh, no don't be! :)19:22
Lnssweet19:22
highvoltage(sorry for silent space I'm just loading release schedule)19:23
highvoltagealpha 3 is due for tomorrow19:24
highvoltagestgraber: which images must be tested, todays daily build or tomorrows?19:25
stgraberwhatever is on iso.qa.ubuntu.com should be tested19:25
stgraberhttp://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/build/edubuntu/all19:25
highvoltageoh cool, it's in there already!19:26
highvoltageso everyone please test those isos if you have the chance!19:26
highvoltageI can probably do at least some of the i386 testint tonight19:26
sbalneavLns: yeah, have a look at the gartoon-redux, it's in my ppa19:27
highvoltagestgraber: do you think it would be better to get a FFE for gartoon-redux, or include it in the edubuntu-artwork package for Lucid?19:28
highvoltageoh wait, I'm being dumb19:28
stgraberI'd better have it a separate package, though it's not a feature so shouldn't need a FFe19:28
highvoltagewe don't need a FFE for artwork packages I think19:28
mhall119|workoh good19:29
highvoltageoh good news is that the qimo-games package made it into the archives at least19:29
sbalneavArt's not a feature, it's an expression of the hopes, dreams an aspirations of Man!  Art LAUGHS at your freezes!19:29
mhall119|workhopefully qimo-artwork and qimo-session will be accepted once I make some chances to the license files19:30
Lnssbalneav: get a haircut, hippie! =p~19:30
sbalneavthbthbthbthbthbthb </raspberry>19:30
highvoltagemhall119|work: yes I think they should go fast now19:30
mhall119|workwhich I haven't done yet, because I spent all my time fixing loco-directory and preparing for teaching in #ubuntu-classroom19:30
mhall119|workoh, and doing some paid work every once in a while19:31
highvoltageyeah I guess everyone has to do some paid work every now and again :)19:31
mhall119|workit wouldn't be so bad if someone was paying me to work on Qimo and loco-directory19:32
highvoltageI don't know. sometimes some things are just better not doing as part of your paid job. I've done a lot of non-profit work before and I've seen some people's passions just drained when it became their day-job and they didn't enjoy it so much anymore19:33
alkisgYup :)19:34
highvoltageanything else we need to cover for the meeting? I think for the larger part, most of the to-do items from last week still needs some attention, and we also need to test the iso for the 23rd19:34
mhall119|workoh I agree19:34
mhall119|worki meant it would be nice to get my currently salary, while working on what I wanted19:35
highvoltagemhall119|work: *nod*19:35
mhall119|workso really, I just need a wealthy benefactor to support my life of luxury19:35
mhall119|workmaybe a cosmonaut or something19:35
mhall119|workI have something I'd like to discuss when it's open-mic time19:36
highvoltageI'm incredibly lucky in that the company I work for gives me a whole day a week for Edubuntu/Ubuntu related work. that seems like an ideal situation to me.19:36
mhall119|workhighvoltage: very nice19:36
* highvoltage grabs the mic from sbalneav since he fell asleep and hands it to mhall119|work 19:36
alkisg<offtopic>highvoltage if you want any help in the live-ltspcd script tell me, I do have some code around that might prove useful</offtopic>19:37
mhall119|workokay, so I'm trying to gather people for a doc-jam for Global Jam weekend19:37
mhall119|workmy plan is to document edu-games19:37
highvoltagealkisg: great! yes you're the first person I would think of for that and I'll certainly call on you19:37
mhall119|workis there a currently list of games included by edubuntu?19:37
mhall119|work"a currently", I fail grammar19:38
highvoltagemhall119|work: there might be on the wiki, if there is it's probably out of date. ditto for the website19:39
mhall119|workI'd like to at least document names, category, description, age recommendations and perhaps a screenshot19:39
highvoltagemhall119|work: we've changed the seeds for lucid a bit to include some more things from universe19:39
mhall119|workhighvoltage: okay, how about a package list?19:39
highvoltagemhall119|work: I can get that for you if you want19:39
mhall119|workthat would be appreciated, thanks19:39
highvoltageor... you could get it directly from the seeds, one moment...19:39
mhall119|workalso, do you know if Ubuntu gets it's screenshots from the Debian screenshot database?19:40
highvoltageor I'll get it for you lateer :)19:40
mhall119|worklater would be fine19:40
mhall119|workglobal jam isn't until end of march19:40
mhall119|workthough I'll probably build out templates on the wiki before thenm19:40
highvoltagemhall119|work: I believe it does, since it shows a debian logo when there is no screenshot available19:40
mhall119|workok, so I'll make sure we submit something there if no screenshot exists19:40
mhall119|workeven if it's just me doing the jam19:41
mhall119|workbut if I offer free food, I can probably round up some others19:41
highvoltagemhall119|work: this is something quite dated but seems similar to your idea: http://www.edubuntu.org/UsingEdubuntu19:41
mhall119|workthat looks pretty nice actually19:42
mhall119|worknot a wiki though :(19:42
Lnsmhall119|work: we could always start with the descriptions from the packages themselves (apt-cache show <packagename>).. Also I stole^H^H^H^H^Hwrote up some descriptions of *some* games at http://www.logicalnetworking.net/services/ubuntu_ltsp.html (search "Featured Educational Applications")19:43
mhall119|workFlash menus Lns?19:43
* Lns sighs19:43
* mhall119|work wags his finger19:43
Lnswasn't me!! =p19:43
LnsI'm getting my new site up and going anyway19:43
Lnswordpress =)19:43
mhall119|workwordpress == win19:44
Lnsseriously...love it19:44
mhall119|workI'll pull from those resources to get started19:44
* highvoltage knows lots of people who actively hate it, but that's another discussion19:45
mhall119|workit's better than drupal19:45
Lnsbetter than b2evo19:45
highvoltagemhall119|work: wordpress has a worse security history and has worse coding practices and worse performance, but I like its interface and it works well for me and it requires less setup to work nicely as a blog out of the box which is why I continue using it for myself19:46
highvoltagemhall119|work: and I also like how easy it is to keep it up to date19:46
Lnsyeah..security issues aside, I just pin the wordpress package in debian and update it manually19:47
highvoltageanything else for this meeting?19:47
mhall119|workalso, I've tried to write Drupal modules19:47
Lnsmhall119|work: I'll gladly help you w/doc jam, ping me for any help you need19:47
mhall119|worksure19:48
Lnsscreenshots, vids, etc.. I've been wanting to create some video demos of edu apps anyway19:48
sbalneavsorry, called away for a bit.19:48
highvoltagemhall119|work: yep and ping the mailing list as well about it :)19:48
Lns+1 highvoltage19:48
* sbalneav cedes mike19:48
mhall119|workhighvoltage: will do19:48
mhall119|workceding me?19:48
highvoltageheh, as in "mic"19:48
mhall119|worklol19:48
highvoltagemhall119|work: in many non-american places it's known as a "mike"19:49
mhall119|workreally?19:49
Ahmuck-Srhi19:49
mhall119|workI'm only known as "mike" in american places, so I guess it's okay19:49
highvoltagehi Ahmuck-Sr19:49
highvoltagemhall119|work: heh19:49
highvoltageok let's move over to #edubuntu, I need to look at a bunch of translations so I'll only be there a bit later19:50
