MootBotNew Topic:  cooloney to get karmic-proposed imx51 kernel with NEON fix in14:04
NCommanderNo cooloney I guess14:05
JamieBennettlets move on then14:05
plarswell14:05
anmarNCommander: does that include the backport FEC ethernet driver?14:05
plarsI know a bit about what was going on there14:05
NCommanderanmar: not sure14:05
NCommanderplars: if you want to fill us in14:05
plarsit's still in progress... there's a kernel in proposed, with the new FEC driver14:05
plarshowever, there was a regression in this updated driver, that can have a performance impact under load14:06
cooloneyi am here14:06
plarsit does, however, fix the initial problem14:06
cooloneysorry14:06
NCommandercooloney: np14:06
plarsno worries, just filling them in on the imx51 karmic kernel that you are working on14:06
cooloneyplars: thanks a lot14:06
plarsyou have anything to add? did that sound reasonable as a summary?14:07
cooloneythe kernel in proposed for karmic is ok for neon fix14:07
cooloneyand smb pinged the pitti to accept it.14:08
cooloneybut for fec driver performance impact14:08

ericm1. Karmic X0 support, which I'd guess should be necessary for us to get it in right?14:09
cooloneyplars: right, i also found the same impact on lucid14:09
plarsdone, but still in progress14:09
JamieBennettNCommander: slow down14:09
NCommanderericm: we'll go over the kernel status in the standing item later14:10
ericmNCommander, ok14:10
NCommanderplars: why is the sound bug still in progress?14:10
plarsso sound is still broken,  but still being worked on14:10
plarshmm... because it hasn't been fixed yet? :)14:10
NCommanderplars: oh, you were saying done to following up :-)14:11
plarsNCommander: right14:11
GrueMastercrimsun and I have been working on this all last week.  We now think it is related to arm specific code in pulseaudio.14:11
GrueMastercrimsun is investigating further.14:11
plarsso removing .pulse seems to workaround a lot of the issues, but not all14:11
NCommanderGrueMaster: ARM specific code in pulse? Last time I looked there wasn't a lot, and that could easily be checked by forcing a fallback to the C code14:11
GrueMasterDid that yesterday.14:12
GrueMasterThat's how we know it is arm specific code.14:12
NCommanderGrueMaster: ugh *grumble*14:12
NCommanderGrueMaster: keep us informed, we want a working pulse14:12

NCommander[topic] Kernel Status (cooloney, ericm)14:19
MootBotNew Topic:  Kernel Status (cooloney, ericm)14:19
ericmcooloney, you first14:20
cooloneyok14:20
cooloneyactually, nothing important from my side these days14:20
cooloneyi just noticed fsl is pushing their code to their public git tree14:21
GrueMasterwhat about hibernation?14:21
plarsnot supported on imx5114:21
cooloneyoh, fsl-imx51 does not support hibernation14:21
GrueMasterOr suspend/resume?14:21
cooloneyi think you guys reported suspend/resume regression after new fec driver applied14:21
plarsyes14:21
cooloneybut i am still working on the performance impact14:22
cooloneythat's all from my side14:22
ericmok, for dove14:22
ericmI've merged the latest LSP 5.1.0 from Marvell14:23
ericmyet it seemed to introduce a suspend/resume regression14:23
ericmI was verifying this with Marvell this afternoon and basically concluded this to be HW issue14:23
plarsericm: so they no longer think it's uboot related?14:24
ericmI've borrowed a good board from them, everything works fine here14:24
NCommanderericm: isn't the A0 out now?14:24
ericmplars, I'm now downgraded to 4.4.0, but it seemed not uboot related14:24
plarsok :(14:25
ericmNCommander, not sure that A0 stepping14:25
ericmbut, hibernation still failed14:25
plarsericm: what is the rev of the board you borrowed?14:25
ericmplars, it's no newer than ours14:25
GrueMasterthen why does it work when ours don't?14:26
ericmplars, so I doubt there are some HW differences, e.g. ECOs we'd like to confirm with Marvell Israle site, yet they seem to be all on holidays this week14:26
ericmGrueMaster, I have no idea of the possible HW difference14:26
NCommanderericm: ask what version of the BootROM they're using14:27
NCommanderericm: that's been a source of odd behavior across otherwise identical boards14:27
ericmNCommander, ok - I'll follow up14:27
ericmNCommander, give me an AR to track the HW difference of the suspend/resume regression14:28
NCommander[action] ericm to track HW/SW differences across Dove revisions for suspend/resume regressions14:28
MootBotACTION received:  ericm to track HW/SW differences across Dove revisions for suspend/resume regressions14:28
NCommanderdone14:28
ericmBug #541399, NCommander, it seems to be an issue of mkimage command line14:28
ubottuLaunchpad bug 541399 in linux-mvl-dove "netboot image fails to boot." [Medium,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/54139914:28
NCommanderericm: saw that one, on my TODO14:28
ericmincorrect setting of Load Address and Entry point, should be easy to fix14:28
NCommanderericm: thanks for looking into it, I think that bug dates to initial dove bringup since that was the first thing we implemented and I guess at some point it stopped getting regularly tested14:29
GrueMastermake sure that gets fixed immediately as we are now in Beta 2 and images are present for testing.14:29
NCommanderGrueMaster: I suspect the fix will land after B2; I'll talk to cjwatson if he's willing to upload d-i14:29
ericmBug #530432, it's actually a kernel bug yet the proposed patch in upstream seems not acceptable at the moment14:29
ubottuLaunchpad bug 530432 in linux-mvl-dove "suspend with sd card inserted fails to suspend, hangs, and loses USB" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/53043214:29
GrueMasterYes, that one spans architectures iirc.14:30
ericmI'd recommend we implement a hook to umount the card before suspending14:30
ericmat the moment, until there is a clean patch merged14:30
ericmBug #457536, it seems to be fixed in latest ubiquity14:31
ubottuLaunchpad bug 457536 in ubuntu-meta "Dove install will fail without network access" [High,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/45753614:31

GrueMasteryes, that was fixed.  Tested yesterday.14:31
ericmmaybe we can close it14:31
plarsum14:31
ericmthere some other bugs maybe we can close, e.g. Bug #45155314:32
ubottuLaunchpad bug 451553 in linux-mvl-dove "Lots of errors during install on dove" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/45155314:32
plarsiirc the real fix for that was never implemented14:32
plarssee bug comments14:32
plarsspeaking of 457536 that is14:32
ericmplars, it seems to be uboot-mkimage is absent, and need to get from network14:32
NCommanderericm: plars: we had that fixed14:32
GrueMasterSome of these bugs are in karmic and fixed in recent lucid images.14:32
GrueMasterMeaning they will still exist in karmic.14:33
ericmplars, cjwatson has made ubiquity depend on that so should be there in the ISO by default, right?14:33
plarsiirc, it was worked around, but slangasek mentioned in the bug that there was a better way that it should be fixed14:33
* NCommander thought we fixed it by putting uboot-mkimage in the ship seed14:33
ericmlooks someone needs to follow this up14:33
ericmget an AR for someone, anyone?14:33
plarssee the last couple of comments14:33
ericmNCommander, we also need to take a look into karmic14:33
plarsthe recommendation was to fix it in the recommends on the kernel image package14:34
NCommander[action] ericm, plars, NCommander to investigate uboot-mkimage breakage and offline dove installation14:34
MootBotACTION received:  ericm, plars, NCommander to investigate uboot-mkimage breakage and offline dove installation14:34
ericmNCommander, ok thanks14:34
NCommanderplars: its already a recommends of initramfs-tools/flash-kernel I think14:34
ericmlet's move on, plars, GrueMaster, there might be other bugs we can close, e.g. Bug #45155314:35
ubottuLaunchpad bug 451553 in linux-mvl-dove "Lots of errors during install on dove" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/45155314:35
plarshmm, is that the one with the double bit errors?14:35
plarsI still get screenfuls of those14:35
ericmplars, it seems to be the one with unalignment faults14:36
ericmplars, double bit errors are actually warning, and we don't care about NAND, do we?14:36
NCommanderericm: not this cycle, but I'm hoping to have something w.r.t. to NAND based installing for 10.1014:36
GrueMasterInterestingly I do not see this on my dove.14:36
* NCommander hasn't seen it on his X0 either14:36
NCommanderplars: it might be that you need to reinitialize your NAND flash14:37
plarsGrueMaster: you don't see the double bit errors?14:37
GrueMasterno14:37
ericmGrueMaster, this happens randomly as it's totally depending on the content of the NAND already there14:37
NCommanderGrueMaster: they usually should up in the dmesg14:37
plarsinteresting14:37
NCommander[action] NCommander and plars to work together to reinitialize plars's NAND flash on his X014:37
MootBotACTION received:  NCommander and plars to work together to reinitialize plars's NAND flash on his X014:37
NCommander:-)14:37
ericmGrueMaster, NCommander, a clean NAND is supposed not to issue any such warnings14:37
plarssounds good14:37
ericmNCommander, ok14:37
* plars has a dirty nand :(14:38
NCommanderplars: I think we can knock that one down to wishlist at the very least, NAND is a very much "we don't care" thing rightnow14:38
ericmmove on, the last item, I'm thinking of getting X0 support back into Karmic14:38
NCommanderor low14:38
plarswill do14:38
NCommanderericm: that just needs a kernel SRU (and a custom image respin)14:38
ericmas Karmic is still in it's supporting phase, yet the change might be BIG, so we do need to do a careful regression14:38
ericmtest14:38
NCommanderericm: the userland support side is fine; I ran karmic on the X0 witout issue once I forced a new kernel on it14:38
ericmNCommander, cool - as long as plars, GrueMaster have some time to do a QA, I'm fine to push it right away14:39
GrueMasterMaybe end of week/early next week.  This is release week.14:40
ericmNCommander, give me an AR, and I'm done with the status update14:40
NCommanderericm: I think we can accept it into proposed, and if need be, I can spin a custom image with it and stuff it on p.c.c14:40

JamieBennettno move on14:43
GrueMasterBetween 3/23 and 4/3, there were no new images to test due to gtk library respin.14:44
GrueMasterMy focus shifted to app testing and debugging pulse audio issues.14:44
GrueMasterAlong with kernel testing.14:44
plarsoh, I thought they weren't done14:44
plarsiso tracker is updated with milestone images14:45
plarsso we have begun testing on that14:45
plarsTI kernel has improved greatly14:45
plarsthe omap image boots to netbook desktop, and all, but no usb at the moment14:46
* GrueMaster has no Ti system to test with (yet).14:46
plarsworking on getting that sorted out, may be able to hand build an image today that should work when my kernel compile completes14:46
plarsand the sound problems were discussed earlier14:46
NCommanderplars: GrueMaster anything else?14:47
GrueMasterI sent a list of bugs to ogra and asac that need some attention.14:47
plarsGrueMaster: was that the one you cc'd me on?14:48

james_wkees: bug 374900: libfaac appears to be undistributable. This has been discussed on the TB list (more than once?), so I don't want to disrupt any discussion by acting as a member of ~ubuntu-archive.15:19
ubottuLaunchpad bug 374900 in faac "Libfaac not LGPL" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/37490015:19
mdzkees: I will talk to robbiew about it; he is managing the planning process15:19
keesmdz: I was going to suggest robbiew too, but thought maybe you wanted specifically a TB member to do it.15:20
mdzin addition to asking people to be transparent, is there anything else the TB should be doing with regard to 10.10?15:20
keesjames_w: if action by ubuntu-archive is not straight-forward for libfacc, can you write up a plan that TB would need to act on?15:21
mdzkees: (agenda) I'm also interested in checking in with the DMB (via cjwatson) to understand how things are going with the new regime15:22
keesmdz: well, the only technical-ish thing I can think of for 10.10 is that we have to remind people to keep an eye out for breakage as we open the floodgates on unstable imports/merges.  coming off an LTS can be a bit jarring.15:22
james_wkees: that's backwards from what I understand is happening, I started discussion in ~ubuntu-archive and was told that the TB was discussing the issue, so I'm following up to see if that is the case, and seeing if we can have a decision before release.15:22
keesjames_w: this is the first I've heard of it, but that is likely a commentary on my memory.  :P15:23
mdzjames_w: that is not the case (wrong verb tense)15:23
Keybukfrom the ML archives, sabdfl had the lead on that one15:23
mdzthere was a discussion (https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/technical-board/2010-March/000115.html) but it died out15:23
james_wsorry, yes, discussed15:23
mdzsabdfl: ?15:24
sabdfli'm lookin'15:24
mdzkees: has anyone floated the question of continuing to merge from testing vs. going back to unstable?15:24
keesmdz: I don't think so; I prefer syncing from unstable, so the idea didn't even cross my mind.15:25
pittilike, keeping that for future releases, or a post-mortem of the approach for lucid?15:26
mdzpitti: the latter, followed by the former15:26
pittiI also had assumed we'd go back to unstable, since the LTS plan in the wiki mentions that for LTSes only15:26
mdzit's one of those things that people always suggest that we do15:26
mdzand we have good reasons for not doing it15:26
mdzbut we're in a unique position now of being able to evaluate and see what the real differences were15:27
mdzand how we can apply lessons learned to future releases15:27
pittiI don't claim to have hard data, but my gut feeling is that lucid has been quite stable throughout the cycle (except for the things which we deliberately broke, such as nouveau/plymouth/etc.)15:27
mdzpitti: that's my gut feeling as well, and my conjecture is that this probably improved overall productivity for developers15:28
persiaThat's not been the case in some areas.  SDL is a particular example where things went very wrong.15:28
cjwatsonsorry, I had an annoying connection issue there15:28
mdzI don't think we can productively evaluate it here, but I think it would be a good exercise15:28
persiaIf the intent is to pull from testing, it may well be worth indicating that pulling from experimental has higher risk than it did in the past.15:29
keessounds like we need a port-mortem of testing-sync first, and we can go from there.  who would like to drive that?15:29
sabdflw.r.t. libfaac, the main issue appears to be a question about whether we can ship some very old code that was developed as part of the ISO standardisation process15:30
cjwatsonregarding maverick direction, my impression so far is that we have the start of a product vision (e.g. http://www.markshuttleworth.com/archives/336) and a number of specific plans among teams, but not a lot in the way of a technical overview yet15:30
cjwatsonperhaps it's putting the cart before the horse to try to construct that before teams have done more of their planning - not sure15:30
sabdfl+1 to including it15:30
pittikees: I guess this amounts to discussing it on u-devel@ and collecting the results?15:30
pittikees: I'm happy to start this off15:30
keespitti: that was my thought as well15:31
sabdfli think we should express a preference for, and willingness to move to, a reimplementation once one is available15:31
kees[ACTION] pitti to kick off post-mortem of sync-from-testing on u-devel@15:31
MootBotACTION received:  pitti to kick off post-mortem of sync-from-testing on u-devel@15:31
ScottKIt might be nice to have some explicit lessons learned sessions at UDS like we did in Barcelona.15:31
sabdfljames_w: so, you can close that bug, my reading of the copyright is that we *can* ship it15:31
mdzpitti: thank you15:32
cjwatsonhave we had a lawyer's opinion?15:32
sabdflcjwatson: not afaik15:32
cjwatsonI'm concerned that upstream has threatened to sue, per that TB thread15:32
james_wsabdfl: the original license is distributable, so fine for multiverse, however the modifications are LGPLv2, which is not compatible with a non-free license when compiled in to a single library in my understanding.15:33
cjwatsonright, it's a combination issue not an individual-distributability issue15:33
cjwatsonupstream> sorry, upstream ffmpeg15:33
james_wwhich would make the resulting package undistributable due to the combination of licenses.15:33
james_wyes, there's a question of if we ship it, and then if we do, the question of if we link ffmpeg to it.15:34
czajkowski.c15:34
sabdflhmm.. .can it not be structured to keep the different bits separate?15:35
sabdfli don't see any issue with modifying ffmpeg so as to autodetect and adapt to its presence15:35
sabdflthat's not violating any copyright15:35
sabdflmy read on the threat to sue was that it was not based on any substantive complaint15:36
cjwatsonif that's the case, it seems to me that we should be discussing it with upstream ffmpeg rather than Just Doing It :-)15:36
sabdflexcept, if they are not rational, there is not a lot of value in the discussion15:37
cjwatsonsabdfl: that seems a large presumption before starting the discussion ...15:37
sabdfland starting out a conversation with an indiscriminate threat to sue is very, Schilling15:37
james_wI believe that the ffmpeg complaint would depend on your interpretation of the linking restrictions in the GPL.15:37
cjwatsonstarting> well, actually, it seems that this is coming part-way through a discussion15:38
cjwatsonand that it got forwarded to us at that point15:38
cjwatsonwould we lose all that much by pulling out the libfaac linkage for now?  from the thread, it seemed to me that it was encoders-only15:38
james_wwhether we can ship libfaac at all seems to depend on your reading of the compatibility of that license and the LPGL, along with your interpretation of the linking exception in the LGPL.15:38
james_wyes, libfaac is purely an encoder15:39
james_wand I'm not sure that ffmpeg links against it any more15:39
cjwatsonI'm concerned at us being burned by one unreasonable upstream and that making a presumption that further people with (possibly) genuine grievances are unreasonable15:39
cjwatsons/that/then/15:39
mdzcjwatson++15:41
keesI hear a few things here:  a) is libfaac redistributable? ("yes")  b) is ffmpeg okay to compile-time link? ("no")  c) is ffmpeg okay to run-time link? ("yes")    am I missing something?15:42
mdz(is everyone multitasking?)15:42
sabdflcjwatson: feel free to dive into it and amend the decision. for now, though, my view is we can ship what was proposed, on the basis that it's a straight derivative of work under an open source license15:42
cjwatsonthere are lots of things under straight open-source licences that we can't and don't distribute in combination15:43
cjwatsonI should say "link together"15:43
cjwatsonFWIW, http://lists.mplayerhq.hu/pipermail/ffmpeg-devel/2010-March/084009.html is the root of the upstream thread15:44
cjwatsoncomments there seem to indicate that it isn't the first time this was brought up, but I don't have full context15:44
james_wkees: I disagree on (a), but if others agree then I will go along because I'm not that experienced at reading licenses15:45
cjwatsonmy opinion (and this is an *opinion*, not amending a decision because I don't think I can do that solo) is that this particular piece of functionality is not worth the aggravation of a licensing dispute15:45
keescjwatson: I agree with that.  :)15:46
mdzis anyone aware of an application which makes use of this plugin?15:47
keesis "a" in dispute?  the thread I was reading seemed to be about linking against ffmpeg, rather than redistributability of libfaac15:47
cjwatsonand our justification for shipping the co-linking would appear to be grounded in the assumption that it's OK for GPLed code to link to incompatibly-licensed code by way of dlopen, which is a definite grey area; my understanding is that it is only really safe when the dlopen is of a generic interface which is known to be implemented in various ways some of which are compatible15:47
mdz(not counting ones where the user can manually configure an arbitrary gstreamer pipeline)15:47
pittimdz: perhaps pitivi15:47
pittibut I'm not sure; it can currently encode in other formats just fine15:47
mdzpitti: you mean that's not just a text editor you made? ;-)15:47
pittimdz: did you not ever want to have one? 10ds -> cut 10 sequences :)15:48
mdzpitti: I just looked at pitivi, and it only offers vorbis, celt, flac and speex15:48
james_wmdz: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/faac/+bug/374900/comments/13 contains a list of packages in Ubuntu that use faac15:48
ubottuUbuntu bug 374900 in faac "Libfaac not LGPL" [High,Triaged]15:48
james_wsome using the binary (which is fine), and others by linking15:48
ScottKcjwatson: I think it that's not allowed, we have other problems.15:49
pittimdz: hm, ISTR it also offered wmv15:49
sabdflcjwatson: aiui, libfaac qualifies, in that it was developed as part of a standards process, has been around for a very long time, has never had any copyright asserted against it, and is widely used15:49
pittimdz: oh, you have to select a different muxer than ogg; for example, avi15:49
mdzjames_w: thanks. most of these seem to be command line tools with many other options for encoders15:50
cjwatsonsabdfl: it's not clear to me that being developed as part of a standards process is relevant; there is much such code that we couldn't ship15:50
sabdflthe copyright gives license to developers *and users*15:50
mdzpitti: aha, thanks (and the "AVI muxer" not the "ffmpeg AVI muxer")15:50
cjwatsonand it would appear to me, on the face of it, that it clearly contravenes our "field of endeavour" licensing guideline15:51
mdzkees: time check?15:51
cjwatsonin fact it's quite explicit15:51
cjwatson"Copyright is not released for non MPEG-2 NBC/MPEG-4 Audio conforming products"15:51
james_wmdz: yes. We would only be taking away one option of encoder if we remove it, but some people prefer aac (some mp3 players apparently only support aac for example)15:51
cjwatsonthere is no way we would accept that in a new package15:51
keesmdz: only selecting a chair is next, and I think you're up next alphabetically.15:51
mdzkees: <mdz> kees: (agenda) I'm also interested in checking in with the DMB (via cjwatson) to understand how things are going with the new regime15:53
keesmdz: ah, sorry, missed that15:53
keesdo we need a vote, or to continue discussion offline about libfaac?15:54
mdzsomeone needs to take ownership of it15:54
mdzsabdfl was first responder, but it sounds like he doesn't have time for it15:54
keescjwatson: can you drive the libfaac issue to conclusion?15:55
cjwatsonI guess I'm unlucky by virtue of having expressed a strong opinion, eh?15:55
kees:)15:55
mdzcjwatson: and not only that, a strong grasp of the issues involved15:55
mdzand excellent judgment!15:55
cjwatsonestablished over the previous hour in which I hurriedly read up on it.  but ok ...15:55
pittikees: hm, license issues don't seem like something vote-able to me?15:55
keespitti: yeah15:56
pittithe "drop encoding from lucid" question certainly is, though15:56

cjwatsonum, we've processed a number of candidates, with some robust disagreement in places but basically the level I would expect15:57
mdzit's always gratifying to know that these things always work out exactly as we expect, the first time, with no unforeseen questions being raised15:57
cjwatsonmdz: :-P15:57
cjwatsonthere has been some confusion about exact voting practices, which is basically administrative but brought on by the fairly large quorum15:58
mdzI recall a thread about DMB's implicit membership in core-dev15:58
cjwatsonand we need to do something about the meeting time, which now doesn't quite work for everyone - but by and large it seems to be working out fairly well15:59
cjwatsonmdz: yes, and it was made just an owner rather than an admin-member to avoid that15:59
cjwatsonthe same needs to be done for a few other teams, but I trust the current DMB members not to abuse the privileges unintentionally granted them in the meantime16:00
mdzcjwatson: are there DMB members who are not core-dev members? and if so, what's holding them back? ;-)16:00
cjwatsonpersia's application is pending, IIRC16:00

jjohansennot positive, but very likely18:07
jjohansenit is always replacement related, under high memory pressure/fragmented memory18:08
jjohansenwhere fast path allocation fails and we fall back to vmalloc for the dfa18:08
jjohansenit seems to be very much related to the use of swap18:09
jjohansenas I have reports that turning off swap makes it go away18:09
jjohansenand in the end may be a bug in the mm and not apparmor18:09
jjohansenalso verified that the policy compiler is building isomorphs on multi-policy load and not suffering from a bug, and looked at ways to fix this for M so that we can use multi-profile load and have automated policy verification.18:10
apwnasty, though swapping would imply the other known triggers, low memory and fragmentation18:10
jjohansenyep18:10
apwhow is the upstreaming going?18:11
jjohansenwe haven't been using multi-policy load because we have known that it is generating alternate dfas, and haven't been able to verify them18:11
jjohansenheh, I found a few more problems with what I was trying to kick out last week so it got delayed into this week, I have been working through, the checks to send out this morning18:13

apwBeta-2 kernels are in an built.  We are not expecting to change the kernel before beta-2.  We are expecting some change still before release.18:21
apwOtherwise the worst issues are graphics related to my mind, and mostly getting resolved.18:21
apwdoubt they will all get resolved before release however.18:22
pgranerapw: I set the expectation that we will have at least one more upload prior to release freeze18:22
apwwe are expecting to be getting a stable update too18:22

kamalmJust FYI -- I am working on the "volume keys never release" issue -- seems to be a common problem for various laptop models (bug 550979, bug 420473, bug 374884).18:27
kamalmThe problem can be fixed in 'udev' by adding bits to /lib/udev/... scripts -- I plan to produce a patched 'udev' package for those bug submitters to test.18:27

jdstrandkees, mdeslaur: ready?18:29
* jjohansen still here18:29
mdeslauryep!18:31
keesjdstrand: ok, ready18:34
keesokay, starting18:35
keesI'm testing openjdk-6 updates currently, should publish today hopefully.  next I'll be gathering up glibc updates, there a a bunch that have been collecting.18:35
keesafter that, back to embargoed stuff18:35
keesjdstrand: your turn18:36
jdstrandk18:36
jdstrandso yesterday I finished my BP items with the libvirt 0.7.5-5ubuntu19 upload (waiting to be accepted)18:36
jdstrandI was able to backport everything I did for 0.7.7/upstreaming except save/restore, which has a workaround in place18:37
jdstrandupstream has been ack'ing my patches throughout the day today :)18:37
keesah, good18:38
jdstrandfor the rest of the week, I plan to work on moin and erlang18:38
jdstrandI plan to go throught the clamav stuff ScottK submitted as well18:38
jdstrandand the firefox update should go out too18:38
jdstrandhopefully I can get through all that ;)18:39
jdstrandtoday I'm doing iso testing18:39
jdstrandand I'm on triage this week18:39
jdstrandthat's it from me18:39
mdeslaurmy turn?18:39
jdstrandmdeslaur: sure18:39
keesmdeslaur: yup18:39
mdeslaurSo, I'm on community this week18:40
mdeslaurI've just uploaded sponsored mahara packages18:40
mdeslaurI'll take a look at ffmpeg18:40
mdeslaurAnd will probably work on php518:40
keesthat list was pretty long for ffmpeg.  siretart and you did a good bit of research.  :)18:41
mdeslaurIf I have time, I'll start going through CVE-2009* as I did for the older ones18:41
mdeslaurkees: yeah! it's painful18:41
keesI wonder what happened here: http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-security/cve/open-cves-6mon.png18:41
jdstrandmdeslaur: btw, excellent job going through all those old CVEs last week18:41
keesyeah18:41
mdeslaurkees: whoa...that's odd18:42
mdeslaurit _doubled_?18:42
keesI can't see where 80 CVEs came from.18:42
keeswell, the bottom line is 40, not 018:42
mdeslauropenjdk and firefox18:42
kees(should I force it to be 0?)18:42
jdstrandI think so18:43
keesoh, yeah, openjdk has that many18:43
jdstrandkees: does that list have partner too?18:43
jdstrandkees: and does it include lucid?18:43
keesif it's in active/ yes18:43
jdstrands/list/graph/18:43
keesjdstrand: that does not include lucid18:44
jdstrandkees: it seems acroread has 36 medium and sun-java6 has 2318:44
jdstrandalong with the aforementioned openjdk18:44
mdeslauracroread?18:44
jdstrandacrobat reader from partner18:44
keesah, no, graph is only "SUPPORTED" from ubuntu-table, which is not partner18:45
jdstrandthose have got to be old though (from dapper)18:45
keesbut it does run with -S, so not lucid18:45
mdeslauracroread is partner, and only vulnerable in lucid18:45
keesso, yeah, openjdk and firefox18:46
keeswheee18:46
mdeslaurthere may have been a slew of webkit also18:46
jdstrandthe firefox ones may be out of date-- I'll go through them all this week18:46
keesmdeslaur: do you want to postpone your workitem items?  looks like you and mvo are the only ones with stuff remaining.18:46
mdeslaurkees: yes, I do18:47
mdeslaurkees: thanks, postponed now18:48
keesmdeslaur: cool, I flipped it to Deferred too18:48
keesexcellent.18:49
* jdstrand wonders if security-lucid-catchall-medium should be 'Good Progress'18:49
mdeslaurThe only thing I want to do before lucid is released is to make sure the openpgp card works18:49
mdeslauras it didn't last time I tried18:49
jdstrandwell, a bunch was postponed, so maybe not18:49
keesjdstrand: yeah, probably. changing...18:49
keesit's more than "slow progress" but not really "good".  but "good" is probably closer.18:50
keesrobbiew, jjohansen, anyone: anything else to bring up?18:50
robbiewnope :)18:50
jjohansenno18:51
keesalrighty then!  thanks everyone.18:51

popeyZachK_: you're up first, please introduce yourself..21:20
ZachK_Well I'm Zach Kriesse...my personal wiki page may be found here at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ZachK_21:21
ZachK_I'm a hardcore Linux user/Wiki Editor and I post on the forums when I can...21:21
ZachK_If I can help I will usually by answering the question myself, researching the problem to find an answer, or if I don't know/can't find an answer I usually know somebody who does....21:22
popeywhere in the community would you say your main focus is?21:23
ZachK_Don't know if you guys know of the Ubuntu Beginners Team?21:23
highvoltageZachK_: quite a bit of your wiki page is about things you plan to do or currently doing, is there perhaps more that you have already done already?21:23
ZachK_highvoltage: ah little outdated....man..21:23
ZachK_my page that is..21:24
popeyits kinda the first thing we ask for is an updated wiki page21:24
ZachK_popey: yes I know...21:24
popeywithout it it's hard for us to make a judgement about the work done21:24
ZachK_popey: most of the info there is correct and dated except for the one where I will most likely be a team lead later today21:24
popeywhere in the community would you say your main focus is?21:25
ZachK_My main hardcore focus is helping the new users come to Linux/Ubuntu...21:25
popeyhow do you do that?21:25
ZachK_Forums, IRC, Wiki Editing(Keeping Info Accurate and Updated) and just about anywhere else21:26
popeyI'm finding it difficult to see documentary evidence of a sustained contribution to Ubuntu..21:27
ZachK_popey: .....21:27
highvoltageI'm going to say -1 for now, I can't take future considerations into account, and I'd need some more details of the support you've provided. Also, please ensure your wiki page is up to date before you re-apply.21:27
highvoltages/future considerations/future contributions/21:28
ZachK_the last time i applied for membership i was told more time was needed...not more contributions...21:28
ZachK_but ok...21:28
popeyyou have some nice testimonials21:29
popeyif you can gether more evidence of the work you've done that would make our job a heap easier21:29
ZachK_Yes........I know this but it's difficult to do so when you have no pc access for four months..21:30
TechnovikingI'm going to say 0, I think you just need a little more work21:30
ZachK_I was finally able to get my pc back last week...21:30
popeydifficult to contribute in a sustained way without a computer I'm sure, but not impossible :)21:30
ZachK_Ask around...I'm everywhere all the time...21:30
highvoltageZachK_: I can sympathise with you, but in cases like that you'll just have to be patient unfortunately21:30
popeyI shouldn't have to ask around21:30
popeyit should be documented on your wiki page21:30
popeythats kinda the point of it21:31
stgraberI'm going to follow with a 0, time is great but what we're looking for is sustained contribution over time. So just come back in a few months with more work done and you should have your membership then.21:31
ralemi.21:31
* popey will also vote 0 for now, if you can come back with a documented set of things you've achieved that would be magic!21:31
ZachK_stgraber: same i was told.....except for the more contributions part....bodhizazen would say the same for me...21:31
popeyZachK_: ask him to write you a testimonial then21:31
ZachK_popey: already have...he was supposed to but never did...21:32
popeyI can't help you there, sorry.21:32
popeyok, next up is Ronnie Tucker who doesn't look like he's here21:32
ZachK_One thing that I've forgotten to note...the padawans that i've had...i've had four...21:32
ZachK_nigel_nb is one of them....21:32
popeyget them to do the same..21:32
ZachK_but what the hay...21:32

balto_I am a software engineer and project manager in Vancouver,21:33
balto_Have worked with Ubuntu as a user for several years, whoever only in Vancouver did I sense the need21:34
balto_to step up and actively promote Ubuntu.21:34
balto_So, I Have been an active evangelist for the past 6 months as summarized in my wiki21:34
balto_Created a guide to show my own boss and then the other small and medium business owners21:34
balto_how they can use Ubuntu as their platform21:34
balto_Organized a game team development team on Ubuntu technologies,21:34
balto_and volunteered in the community events, made screencasts, done home support visits, etc21:34
balto_On the developer side, I have just done patches and hacks, nothing to brag about, but my bazar21:34
balto_branch was just approved today so I hope more is to come on that side, Although I really am not a21:34
balto_developer21:34
balto_Tried to do as much documentation and specification as possible. (340 wiki pages in 6 months and21:34
balto_counting)21:35
balto_And hope to increase awareness and build trust relationship to get traction for Ubuntu in the city.21:35
balto_(demonstrations for a total of 11 businesses for the past six months)21:35
balto_I really feel that there is an opportunity to increase market share for Ubuntu in businesses in21:35
balto_Vancouver, and that can lead as a poc to attract more traction for Ubuntu in North America.21:35
popey3 lines is usually a good intro.. :)21:35
balto_:D21:35
balto_I am an evangelist, what did you expect?21:35

balto_All sorts,21:36

rrnwexec1I will say that Rex is a superb SupportHero at our SupportSaturday events. I've seen him tackle all kinds of problems, with excellent customer focus.21:44
popeyand your sitting in the coffee shop.. what do you talk about with people during those sessions?21:44
balto_the idea is to show the people how support should be21:45
balto_I put on an eye candy in a rainy day and wait ( I always like fishing)21:45
balto_a game, a nice animation21:45
balto_and then someone comes forward and says "cool, what is it?"21:45

roscoeWay to go Rex21:50
balto_Thanks Roscoe21:50
mimorcongrats balto_ you definitely deserve it!21:51
highvoltagebalto_: bah, you're way better than that ;)21:51
balto_:D21:51
highvoltagemimor: around?21:51
mimoryes21:51
popeyyou're up.. a brief intro if you please21:52
balto_Thanks guys (and lady) have a great day. I'll just stick around to cheer Randall then, if you don't mind21:52
mimorI'm Mike, 23 working as at the helpdesk for al IT related stuff in Ghent (Belgium)21:52
mimorI've been supporting Ubuntu since late 200821:52
mimorand I'm one of the more active members of my city21:53
mimorbut I'm (not yet) a developer/coder/debugger21:53
highvoltagemimor: what kind of testing do you do?21:53
mimorI've got 2 laptops of my own and my desktop. I run mostly Beta's of ubuntu on them21:54
mimorthen I have apport to create reports of crashes21:54
mimorI feels sorry I still can't debug them myself (lack of programmingskills)21:55
highvoltagemimor: I notice on https://bugs.launchpad.net/~mike-morraye-be/+reportedbugs that you haven't filed any bugs yet, what do you do when you find a problem during your testing?21:55
mimorI have apport to check against the launchpad db whether it's a new one or not21:56
mimorthen almost every time, I just have to compare the results with existing ones and mark the bug as affecting me21:56
mimorbut that's my main point of contributing21:57
mimor(far from it)21:57
popeywe value testing immensely, there's not enough of it being done, but I'd like to see more documentation of a sustained contribution on your wiki page before going for membership, so I'm going to vote +0 for now.21:58
highvoltagemimor: I think you have the right attitude and that you're making some good contributions, but I think you need to solidify it a bit more, perhaps join the QA team and help out there, and get some of the people you work with to write up some testimonials on your wiki page21:58
mimorok21:58
popeyyeah, thats a great idea21:59
mimorThis appliance was more some kind of finding out what's it all about21:59
highvoltagealso a +0 from me, but I hope we see you soon in a few months21:59
Technoviking+0 for me also, I would like to see a larger body of work21:59
popey:) understood mimor21:59
mimorit'll take a little more than a few months21:59
mimor:)21:59
mimorbut hey21:59
Technovikingmimor: hope to see you back21:59
popeykeep going, we need more testers21:59
mimorthe testing is something I realy like, but I don't have enough knowledge :s22:00
mimorso, it'll take more time22:00
mimorfor now, I'll do some 'spreading the word'22:00
popeygood stuff22:00
mimorfeeling like a prayer22:00
highvoltagemimor: that's what joining the QA team could help a lot with, there are people there with lots of knowledge who will gladly share it22:00
popeyok, we're out of time but we still have rrnwexec122:00
mimorcan you point me in the right direction where to start joining the QA group?22:01

highvoltagesabdfl: also groovy, thanks :)22:09
popeyyup sabdfl22:09
Technovikingpopey: no problem, glad to help22:09
TechnovikingAnyone got anything they want to discuss with the CC?22:11
sabdfl#startmeeting22:11
MootBotMeeting started at 16:11. The chair is sabdfl.22:11
MootBotCommands Available: [TOPIC], [IDEA], [ACTION], [AGREED], [LINK], [VOTE]22:11
popeyyes, Kletskous would like to raise the question of the release party in second life22:11
popeyKletskous is new to irc22:11
Kletskousoh yes, thank you popey22:12
sabdfl[TOPIC] 10.04 release party in Second Life22:12
MootBotNew Topic:  10.04 release party in Second Life22:12
sabdflgo ahead Kletskous22:12
KletskousI am Catharina and I've send an e-mail about this to the community council22:12
RubenHaanah yeah that would be nice to have someone who cando a speach at secondlife for the selebration at secondlife22:12
Kletskouson May 1st we will do a release party for Lucid on SL (our Ubuntu Linux group in cooperation with the 4freedomgroup)22:13
popeywhat requirements would the speaker need, in order to join in?22:14
Kletskouswe have musicians, a dj, gadgets and stuff but a speaker would be great22:14
KletskousWell there are several ways of doing this; it can be done with an avatar on stage or with streaming video22:15
sabdflif we have a speaker, they would be much better off if they were already comfortable with / regular users of second life22:16
KletskousI there anyone of the community council familar with SL?22:16
makoso i think it sounds like a great idea22:16
makobut i've not used second life before22:16
popeyI have used it22:16
KletskousWell it depends. That is not needed when you do it with streaming video22:16
highvoltageKletskous: is there a public list of ubuntu second life users somewhere?22:16
popeybut only in terms of "installed client, went in, flew about a bit, noticed a lot of unsavoury stuff and an empty linux shop, and left"22:17
RubenHaanwe as group in sl can also help ppl getting used to sl before the event22:17
Kletskousno, our group has about 1400 members but they all go under the name of their avatar..22:17
Technovikingpopey: similar expereince here22:17
digitalfizgroup lists for secondlife are not public22:17
digitalfizim guessing to avoid spam22:18
sabdfli think it would be a fun exercise for whoever took it up22:18
sabdflbut they'd need to devote a few hours to getting setup in advance, then clear some time before the actual event to make sure it was all groovy22:18
popeysounds like a job for jono :)22:19
sabdflis there a URL with "get it working on Lucid" instructions?22:19
Kletskousno, but you can just download the official second life client and it will work22:19
sabdflthat sounds good enough22:19
Kletskousand register of course at the Lindens...22:19
sabdfli'll take an hour this week and try to get up and running. if it goes smoothly, i'll be happy to speak.22:20
digitalfizthere are problems with sound and 64bit ubuntu because of pulseaudios horrible alsa plugin but i think the newest viewer has a more up to date openal that has direct pulseaudio support22:20
Kletskousgreat; contact me before you do, so we can asist you22:21
KletskousRuben Haan is Deruub Pastorelli in SL and I am Catharina Jacobus22:21
sabdfli can't promise i'll be there because I can't take too much time to debug any issues that arise22:21
sabdflCatharine - email addy?22:21
Kletskousplease promis... :)22:21
Kletskousmy mail is cath@freelancenetwerk.nl22:22

Kletskousnow everyone knows everything about me :)22:22
sabdflwelcome to the club :-)22:22
popeysabdfl: people in SL have alter-egos, and don't go by their real names. It's all very confusing :)22:22
sabdfl[ACTION] sabdfl to try to get up and running in SL, and speak if it goes smoothly22:23
MootBotACTION received:  sabdfl to try to get up and running in SL, and speak if it goes smoothly22:23
sabdfl[TOPIC] Any other business?22:23
KletskousLinden might make an exception for sabdfl for going on his real name.. but not sure22:23
MootBotNew Topic:  Any other business?22:23
Kletskousok great; thanks a lot and u too popey for the help22:24
RubenHaanjep you can ask lindenlab22:24
makoyou're not *allowed* to use your real name?22:24

Kletskouson opensim you can choose.. but we are not ready there yet to party22:25
sabdfli'll cross that bridge when i get to it22:25
highvoltageeek, I can't remember under what e-mail I registered, I guess I'll just have to create a new profile22:25
sabdflif there's nothing else, can we wrap up?22:26
Kletskousyes maybe easier to do that then highvoltage22:26

sabdflthanks all!22:27
makothanks everyone22:28
RubenHaanthnx22:29
crimsundigitalfiz: err, what?22:29
crimsundigitalfiz: what's this about 64-bit pulseaudio/alsa horrible-ness?22:29
digitalfizwell ive only noticed it with openal trying to use alsa through pulse22:30
crimsundigitalfiz: on current lucid?22:30
crimsundigitalfiz: because frankly, if it's on karmic, the proper approach is to ask for backports from lucid of alsa-plugins and openal-soft, and use PA from ppa:ubuntu-audio-dev.22:31
crimsunsame goes for libsd1.2.22:32
crimsunlibsdl1.2 *22:32
digitalfizits been every version of ubuntu up to karmic i havent used lucid yet. the way i fixed it was i just compiled a newer version of openal which has direct pulseaudio support. i think it was just in the way openal used alsa which made pulse act up22:33
crimsunif you have further comments, feel free to catch me via e-mail (and/or to the ubuntu-audio-dev mailing list; see the team's LP page)22:33
