dholbachnigelb: what is "telling bug squad about us and what needs to be done in case of patche"?14:52
dholbachit's still TODO14:52
dholbachpersia: does "Emmet to clarify buckets and TODO lists!" look like it still needs doing?14:53
persiaI haven't done it yet.14:53
dholbachpersia: yeah, I was just wondering how much or what needs changing in the docs14:54
dholbachnigelb: I'll do "Nigel to document "black listing process""14:54
dholbachnigelb: it should be really quick14:54
persiaI've been working on an essay taking about the use of the metaphor of sorting into buckets as a way to explain the patch process.  I have no idea why I'm doing it though (and I'm not really sure it's useful)14:54
dholbachpersia: do you think it makes sense to add a list of the the different buckets (and links to them) to the review guide to help "visualise it"?14:56
dholbachit might be a good start already14:56
persiaUm, what do you mean by that?  I don't understand at all.14:57
dholbachlike to the existing documentation you add a list of the different buckets we have in the process, briefly describe what their function is and give links to the bugs that are in those buckets14:57
dholbach(if a fully-blown essay is too much)14:58
persiaI think I don't understand the action item then.  What was the point again?14:59
dholbachwe have a process that requires people to put various bugs and patches into various buckets as part of it15:01
dholbachthe work item seems to say that these buckets need clarification15:01
dholbachas do the "TODO lists" that people can work on15:01
dholbach(like grab a bug that was rejected upstream and improve it… or something)15:01
persiaAh, so the point is to list them, rather than define "bucket"?  Ah.  Right.  I'll take a look in that new light tomorrow, and update things.15:02
dholbachpersia: that's just how I interpreted it15:02
dholbachif I don't make sense, blame the dentist - maybe the anaesthesia were too strong ;-)15:02
persiaI was surprised to discover the action item when I did, so any interpretation is welcome :)15:03
dholbach:)15:05
dholbachnigelb: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ReviewersTeam/ExcludingPackages - I linked to that page in various places15:05
nigelbdholbach: awesome16:18
nigelbpersia: I remember what it was about16:18
persianigelb: Please tell me :)16:18
nigelbwhen you mentioned that patches are sorted into buckets somone suggets, "emmet can you take can action item to clarify this"16:19
persiaThat was my vague memory, hence the essay.16:19
persiaBut if it ought be something different, that works too.16:19
nigelbwhich means, I think it can be marked as done because review guide pretty much explains how it works, I'm not sure if we need an essay for functional purposes16:19
