[07:56] <dholbach> good morning
[14:52] <dholbach> nigelb: what is "telling bug squad about us and what needs to be done in case of patche"?
[14:52] <dholbach> it's still TODO
[14:53] <dholbach> persia: does "Emmet to clarify buckets and TODO lists!" look like it still needs doing?
[14:53] <persia> I haven't done it yet.
[14:54] <dholbach> persia: yeah, I was just wondering how much or what needs changing in the docs
[14:54] <dholbach> nigelb: I'll do "Nigel to document "black listing process""
[14:54] <dholbach> nigelb: it should be really quick
[14:54] <persia> I'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)
[14:56] <dholbach> persia: 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] <dholbach> it might be a good start already
[14:57] <persia> Um, what do you mean by that?  I don't understand at all.
[14:57] <dholbach> like 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 buckets
[14:58] <dholbach> (if a fully-blown essay is too much)
[14:59] <persia> I think I don't understand the action item then.  What was the point again?
[15:01] <dholbach> we have a process that requires people to put various bugs and patches into various buckets as part of it
[15:01] <dholbach> the work item seems to say that these buckets need clarification
[15:01] <dholbach> as do the "TODO lists" that people can work on
[15:01] <dholbach> (like grab a bug that was rejected upstream and improve it… or something)
[15:02] <persia> Ah, 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] <dholbach> persia: that's just how I interpreted it
[15:02] <dholbach> if I don't make sense, blame the dentist - maybe the anaesthesia were too strong ;-)
[15:03] <persia> I was surprised to discover the action item when I did, so any interpretation is welcome :)
[15:05] <dholbach> :)
[15:05] <dholbach> nigelb: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ReviewersTeam/ExcludingPackages - I linked to that page in various places
[16:18] <nigelb> dholbach: awesome
[16:18] <nigelb> persia: I remember what it was about
[16:18] <persia> nigelb: Please tell me :)
[16:19] <nigelb> when you mentioned that patches are sorted into buckets somone suggets, "emmet can you take can action item to clarify this"
[16:19] <persia> That was my vague memory, hence the essay.
[16:19] <persia> But if it ought be something different, that works too.
[16:19] <nigelb> which 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 purposes
