temposshi bueno00:58
temposshmm, I didn't do that, no00:59
C3s4rHi all.01:01

MootBotMeeting started at 19:03. The chair is pleia2.01:03
MootBotCommands Available: [TOPIC], [IDEA], [ACTION], [AGREED], [LINK], [VOTE]01:03
pleia2Hello and welcome to the Ubuntu Membership Review Board for the Americas meeting for August 19th The wiki page for the Review Board is available here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Membership/RegionalBoards/Americas01:03
pleia2We will attempt to get through all of the applicants that have added themselves to that list before today's meeting. If we are unable to make it through the entire list due to time constraints, then at the next meeting we will pick up where we left off.01:03
pleia2The format for the meeting is as follows: We will go through the list of applicants one by one, by date of application (FIFO).01:04
pleia2Each applicant should introduce themselves (1-5 sentences) and provide links to their Ubuntu Wiki page. After the introduction the members of the Membership Review Board will review the pages and, if needed, ask the applicant further questions.01:04
pleia2During this time it is encouraged for other members of the community to show their support for the applicant. Do not be alarmed if the members of the Membership Review Board are quiet during this time; they are most likely reading wiki/launchpad/forum/other pages and deciding how they are going to vote.01:04
pleia2When the board is ready to vote, they will publicly vote in the channel with either +1, 0, or -1 (for membership, abstain, and against membership, respectively). If the sum of those numbers is positive, then the applicant is now an official Ubuntu member! (feel free congratulate them!)01:04
pleia2Now, with any further ado, lets get started with the first applicant...01:05

MootBotNew Topic:  C3s4r membership01:05
C3s4rHi all01:05
C3s4rFirst of all, sorry for my bad writing into English.01:05
C3s4rI hope to meet the expectations for membership in the ubuntu project.01:06
C3s4rI have since 2006 supporting the project LoCoTeams Ubuntu and Ubuntu-ve since then I have been promoting a national level with the various projects I've made since then.01:06
C3s4rSince 2006 part of several organizations for the development of Free Software events nationwide (Venezuela), bringing in those oportundades to Richard Stallman, just as local events and facilities to develop OS Ubuntu.01:07
C3s4rI am currently Coordinator of the Academy of Free Software Regional Zulia, and we provided various web services, dns, mail, everything under the SO Ubuntu Server. Similarly, I have participated and still participating in the Free Software migration at national level with the current support of a presidential decree requiring all public institutions to migrate to SL in which I am leader of migration in Fundacite Zulia. http://www.fundacite-zulia.gob.ve.01:08

pleia2wow, tons of event work :)01:08
beunoC3s4r, si, I've seen you around more than a few times01:08
beunoI'm curious, what's been driving you to be so involved these past 5 years?01:08
C3s4rbeuno, thank's01:08
C3s4rOne of the things was to find the opportunity to enjoy the freedom to implement any technical changes in the OS, especially in Ubuntu.01:10
beunoC3s4r, I have one more question for you. What do you feel needs improving in Ubuntu?01:11
C3s4rAlso, Ubuntu gave me a chance to meet many, many projects and above all the opportunity to apply the type of work they do as a team01:11
macoC3s4r: what took you so long to apply?01:13
C3s4rAssist in the development of free software drivers. Disseminate additional packaging methods.01:13

beunoj_baer, what drives you to contribute artwork?01:22

pleia2yeah, we're fortunate to have attracted a lot of great artists like yourself01:23
* pleia2 can draw stick figures, barely01:23

pleia2ok, please go ahead and introduce yourself and link to your pages, if anyone is here to give testimonals they can speak up at any time :)01:41
nhandlerYep01:41
tempossthank you01:41
tempossI have been a user an contributor to the Ubuntu community since 200601:42
temposs*and01:42
tempossMy primary focus points in my contribution have been 1) helping new users of Ubuntu01:42
tempossand 2) contributing to desktop apps that make Ubuntu more robust01:43
tempossI have more than 1000 posts on the forums, primarily in the Absolute Beginners Area01:44
tempossIn that arena I have done things such as packaging a Lexmark driver for Ubuntu: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters/LexmarkPrinters01:44
beunotemposs, has that package been uploaded to the repos?01:45
temposs(the Lexmark Z600)01:45
tempossno, I have not gotten around to that01:45
nhandlertemposs: I see your wiki focuses on bugs reported and bugs fixed. Any bug triaging work?01:46
macodo you need a sponsor?01:46
maconhandler and I can both sponsor packages01:46
macoif that's all that's stopping you01:46
tempossnhandler: I have done some bug triaging in network manager and deja-dup and wine, among others01:47
nhandlertemposs: Any plans to apply to Bug Control in the future ?01:47
tempossmaco: yeah, I also need to check that the package works in the current version of Ubuntu01:48
tempossmaco: I don't actually have this printer...I developed it completely based on user feedback01:48
macotemposs: join #ubuntu-packaging after the meeting if you need help sorting out setting up pbuilder and such01:48
beunotemposs, any LoCo involvement?01:49
nhandlerI see you are part of the IL LoCo team on LP. What part of IL are you in?01:49
tempossnhandler: I do not know what Bug Control is, but I am happy to apply to any kind of group like that01:49
tempossmaco: I will do that01:49
nhandlertemposs: https://edge.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-bugcontrol They help triage bugs for Ubuntu01:50
macotemposs: Bug Control is the group that can do things like set importance or mark a bug as triaged. its a step beyond Bug Squad01:50
* nhandler notes the bug squad also have a mentoring program to help train people01:50
tempossbueno: there is no LoCo around here, but I have been involved with the LuG at the university01:50
nhandlertemposs: What university?01:50
* nhandler is from IL01:50
tempossUniversity of Illinois- Urbana Champaign01:50
pleia2temposs: you've done some great work over the years, but I'd really like to see you join bug control, work toward getting your package uploaded, and get some testimonials from folks you work with, really just get involved with teams and the wider community a bit more :)01:51
nhandlertemposs: Ah, yeah. A bit far from the Chicago LoCo, but definitely some good Ubuntu-folks down there. Stop by #ubuntu-chicago sometime though ;)01:51
dindatemposs:  could you maybe get some more testimonials from the forums area?01:51
dindait looks like you've done some good work over there01:51
tempossthere is one person I keep in contact with who I helped significantly, but he's not online currently01:52
tempossAlso, the deja-dup package I contribute to most is maintained by a Canonical employee01:52
temposshe already wrote me a letter of recommendation for Peace Corps01:53
tempossbut I don't have access to that text01:53
temposs...01:53
=== jjohansen is now known as jj-afk
tempossI thought the testimonial was optional01:53
dindatemposs: it helps show your invovlement01:53
tempossand especially since I have much of my interaction with other community members/users documented on the forums and launchpad01:53
dindatemposs: there is a foaf system, friend of a friend system, that helps us understand your overall involvement. . .01:56
dindaso testimonials widen your friend circle and most likely overlap with our circles. . .01:57
pleia2temposs: testimonials don't need to come from members or anyone official, just folks who know your work on the forums, perhaps ones you've worked with on deja dup or other projects you've triaged with01:57
tempossI think this should be documented more completely in the membership instructions...01:58
nhandlerWasn't one of the pages just updated about that? /me goes to check01:58
beunotemposs, so it looks like you've contributed quite a bit to the project, great job. I think you're a few inches away from being at the right stage, but I feel you need to get involved with more of the community, teams and processes01:58
temposswhat I saw is: If there are recognized members of the Ubuntu community supporting you at the meeting, this will definitely speed up the process of approving you. If your "sponsors" can't attend the relevant meeting, ask them to leave a testimonial on your wiki page about your contributions.01:58
tempossNote: They do not need to be Ubuntu Members, just a part of the community, even your local community. Testimonials in languages other than English are fine. Some members of boards are multilingual, and if not, they can use a translation tool.01:58
pleia2beuno: I agree01:59
nhandler" It is important that members demonstrate the ability to interact with others, so detailed endorsements from others are important criteria that are evaluated during your application, because they give better insight into specific parts of the community. Testimonials from members of various parts of the community are appreciated, even if they're not Ubuntu members themselves."01:59
pleia2temposs: can you gather some testimonials and perhaps work toward getting the package included and joining bug control? you're welcome to come back in a month or two and have us re-evaluate your application :)02:01
macoI'm kind of put off by you making a package and not trying to get it into the repos to benefit more users :-/  Would be nice to work more closely with the Ubuntu Dev team02:01
=== em is now known as emma
temposspleia2: I can do that02:03
nhandlertemposs: If you need help, please do not hesitate to ask. I know we would all be willing to help point you in the right direction02:03

ogasawaraOn the bugs noted in the agenda, status is as follows:16:17
=== lamont` is now known as lamont
ogasawaraBug 605488 - Currently assigned to kernel dev (lag - Lee Jones).  This issue only appears to surface when the swapper is active.  Lee is still investigating.16:17
ubottuLaunchpad bug 605488 in linux-ti-omap4 (Ubuntu Maverick) "BUG: scheduling while atomic: mmcqd/46/0x00000002" [High,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/60548816:17
ogasawaraBug 605739 - Believed to be resolved in the latest linux-ti-omap4-2.6.34-903.7 kernel. Still waiting for verification before closing.16:18
ubottuLaunchpad bug 605739 in linux-ti-omap4 (Ubuntu Maverick) "BUG: Bad page state in process swapper pfn:94d23" [High,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/60573916:18
ogasawaraBug 566645 - The patch in question is already included in the latest Maverick kernel. I've posted a comment to the bug and marked it Fix Released.  The Lucid SRU still remains open and under consideration.16:18
ubottuLaunchpad bug 566645 in linux-ti-omap (Ubuntu Lucid) "OTG configuration is broken on omap kernel" [High,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/56664516:18
ogasawaraBug 369850 - Seems this was resolved in cups.  I've subsequently closed the Maverick kernel task for now and posted a comment requesting that a new bug be opened in the event any new id's need to be added to the Maverick parport_pc driver.16:18
ubottuLaunchpad bug 369850 in cups (Ubuntu Maverick) "Cannot set up parallel port printer" [Undecided,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/36985016:18
ogasawaraAs a general status, we've rebased to the lastest 2.6.35.2 upstream stable kernel.  The 2.6.35.2 stable updates unfortunately brought in a noticable regression, Bug 618846.  We've since applied a fix and uploaded a new kernel, linux-2.6.35-17.23.  Also, per the Tech Board decision, we've dropped support for ia64 and sparc from the kernel.  We are above the trend line for our Beta release burndown chart but below16:18
ogasawara the trend line overall.  The remaining Beta release work items are not release critical.16:18
ubottuLaunchpad bug 618846 in linux (Ubuntu) "Kernel 2.6.35.2 reports "scheduling while atomic"" [Medium,Fix committed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/61884616:18
ogasawaraQuestions?16:19
cjwatsonCan https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/kernel-team/2010-August/012272.html be applied for the next kernel upload?  Tim's acked it already.  I can't upload a merged grub2 without it, and that's a prerequisite for a non-prehistoric mdadm - bit of a chain.  (My apologies for not noting this problem before now, I should have done.)16:19
ogasawaracjwatson: yep, on my list todo this morning.16:19
cjwatsonthanks16:19
skat_thanks ogasawara16:20
skat_any further questions?16:20
cjwatsonAlso, I know that JFo is going to do some more triage on the bugs induced by grub gfxpayload=keep, but it would be nice if those could get some development effort at some point for natty16:20
cjwatsonI mean, in the lead-up to natty, so that we can hope to turn this on again16:20

cjwatsonhi16:23
cjwatsonI've been away for three weeks and only got back on Monday.  Bear with me while I proceed to show how I have no idea what's going on.16:23
cjwatsonhttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/FoundationsTeam/ReleaseStatus/Maverick16:23
cjwatsonThere are various tail-ends of feature work here; the ones most likely to result in some further work are buy-something, cd-build-speed, installer-redesign, and uefi-support.16:24
cjwatsonWe'll probably switch grub2-boot-framebuffer back off for beta, and continue work on it out of band.  General summer holiday chaos meant that it was difficult to get it the amount of kernel support it required, and it seems at this point that it's too risky to leave it switched on.16:24

skat_[TOPIC] 10.04.2 update17:12
MootBotNew Topic:  10.04.2 update17:12
robbiewI added this thinking it's good to keep the point releases in mind...early!17:12
ogralike ... really early ...17:12
robbiewheh17:12
Riddellis it scheduled?17:12
skat_robbiew,  :)  agreed.   anyone around who can talk to it?17:13
robbiewwe have a "planned" release date...yes17:13
robbiewI don't think we need to say much now17:13
skat_Riddell,  planned release date 2011/1/27 per agenda...17:13
skat_Riddell,  ;)17:13
robbiewjust want it there to keep it in folk's mind17:13
skat_thanks robbiew17:13
skat_Any other questions before we end meeting?17:14
tgardnerrobbiew, the installer folks need enough time to add the LTS backport kernel17:14
pittinot sure whether I should bring up a potentially disruptive maverick change at this point?17:14
robbiewtgardner: ack17:14
sistpoty|workpitti: referring to udev?17:14
robbiewpitti: um...yes :)17:14
pittiwe currently carry some outdated modem infrastructure in maverick17:14
pittithere is a project usb-modeswitch, which has superseded our modem-modeswitch a fair while ago17:15
pittibut since neither me nor Scott had much time for udev in maverick so far, it got neglected17:15
pittisistpoty|work: that, too17:15
pittithe modem-modeswitch -> usb-modeswitch change is not a trivial thing, and needs some testing17:16
ogradoes it affect any other stuff beyond modems ?17:16
pittiwell, it's for UMTS/3G cards17:16
pittii. e. for those USB sticks and mobile phones17:16
ograi.e. heavy udev changes that could break other stuff17:16
pittiogra: udev itself is relatively easy, see bug 62097717:16
ubottuLaunchpad bug 620977 in udev (Ubuntu Maverick) "[FFE] update udev to 161" [Medium,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/62097717:16
ograor is it just a set of new rules17:16
pittiI went through all changes today17:16
pittiand it's blocking some updates in GNOME as well17:16
pittibut it requires changing to usb-modeswitch, which is a bigger change17:17
pittiif we do that, I'm happy to send out a call for testing and regressio reporting to u-devel, etc.17:17
robbiewpitti: I'm sure marjo's team can assist with that17:17
pittiI have an usb 3g stick which I can test, but not much else17:18
pittimy laptop has one of those gobi things, and it's broken in maverick (and not affected by mode switch in the first place)17:18
robbiewso I have a built-in 3G card from Ericsson...would that be useful to test as well?17:19
pittirobbiew: does it look like a CD-ROM17:19
pitti?17:19
pittiI think this mainly affects USB sticks17:19
robbiewack17:19
tgardnerpitti, I though we got a gobi loader? didn't smb do that?17:19
pittithey first act like a CD-ROM and have windows drivers17:19
robbiewwe do..it's in universe17:19
pittiand you need to poke it with some black magic to switch over to modem mode17:19
robbiewand /me is about to create an MIR for it17:20
cjwatsonright, usb-modeswitch is relevant on the devices that present as either CD-ROM or modem but never both at the same time (i.e. the manufacturer is too cheap to include a USB hub)17:20
tgardnerah17:20
pittitgardner: that works, but hte modem never connects for me; but different topic17:20
robbiewwasn't there some other manufactuer who's device did that...huwaei?17:20
pittiso, I'm happy to prepare the switch and test it with my Huawei 3G stick (which is affecteD)17:20
robbiewheh17:20
cjwatsonit's also possible to quirk the kernel to set up those devices that way by default17:20
pittibut I want to get some consensus about switching this late17:20
cjwatsonrobbiew: also Option17:20
pittithe advantage of that is that we get _much_ better 3G coverage17:21
pittimodem-modeswitch is obsolete, unmaintained, and doesn't work for a lot of newer devices17:21
cjwatsonI don't like the userspace modeswitch *at all*, but modem-modeswitch and usb-modeswitch are the same in that regard17:21
cjwatsonmight as well use the one that everyone else seems to use17:21
pitticjwatson: ack; hack either way17:21
robbiewI think if we can get this in pre-Beta, sure17:21
pittibut at least we'll use the current hack :/17:21
robbiewthen we have a better chance of getting more testing...as loads of people tend to jump on the beta17:22
pittirobbiew: I have udev packages prepared for testing, and usb-modeswitch has been in Ubuntu for ages; just needs a MIR and a dependency (or seeding)17:22
robbiewok17:22
skat_[ACTION] Robbiew to create MIR for modem infrastructure upgrade17:22
MootBotACTION received:  Robbiew to create MIR for modem infrastructure upgrade17:22
robbiewwhoa...17:22
sistpoty|workI pretty much agree with robbiew, would be good to get it in pre beta17:22
pittiFYI, bug 521578  covers the usb-modeswitch change17:22
ubottuLaunchpad bug 521578 in modemmanager (Ubuntu Maverick) "FFE: usb-modeswitch should be included by default on Maverick" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/52157817:22
skat_robbiew.... heh - will delete if you tell me to. ;)17:22
robbiewI think pitti is doing the MIR...I'm doing one for another package17:23
pittiit's a dependency of bug 620977 in order to not regress17:23
ubottuLaunchpad bug 620977 in udev (Ubuntu Maverick) "[FFE] update udev to 161" [Medium,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/62097717:23
