[01:09] <ogasawara> skaet: I've just sent email to the team re my action item from last weeks release meeting ("ogasawara to track grub gfxpayload=keep for Natty pre-work")
[01:10] <ogasawara> skaet: do you want me to mark that as DONE for friday's release meeting, or would you prefer that I not edit that page?
[04:19] <skaet> ogawawara, go ahead and edit it, to mark it done.  :)  thanks!
[17:08] <ScottK> It would be convenient if someone would process NBS to make the list a little more accessible.
[17:39] <ogasawara> ogra: around?  I wanted to raise bug 613855 here with the release team in order to get a beta freeze exception to upload a new kernel.
[17:39] <ogra> ogasawara, sure i am :)
[17:39] <ogra> see my last reply on the ML
[17:39] <ubot4> Launchpad bug 613855 in linux (Ubuntu Maverick) (and 1 other project) "omap3 beagle XM MMC card always comes up readonly (affects: 1) (heat: 256)" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/613855
[17:40] <ogasawara> ogra: yep, just read it.
[17:40] <ogasawara> skaet, robbiew: around?  some last minute patches just came in to resolve 613855.  This however would require us uploading a new kernel.
[17:42] <robbiew> ogasawara: hey
[17:42] <ogasawara> skaet, robbiew: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/kernel-team/2010-August/012421.html captures the meat of the reason for needing a beta freeze exception.
[17:42]  * robbiew reads
[17:42]  * robbiew is reminded that he needs to send the Freeze announcement as well
[17:42] <robbiew> heh
[17:45] <robbiew> ogasawara: seems fine to me
[17:46] <ogasawara> robbiew: cool, I'll prepare an upload then.  Thanks.
[17:46] <robbiew> ogasawara: yep...and I'll prepare the Freeze announcement...heh
[17:46] <ogasawara> heh
[17:48]  * skaet notes timing of freeze announcements to her "future todo lists... " ;)
[17:49] <ogra> ogasawara, gah, why did you ask robbiew ? now he remembers the announcement !
[17:50] <robbiew> heh
[17:51] <persia> This was not a good thing.  A few more hours would have pleased everyone
[17:51] <ogasawara> my bad
[17:57] <robbiew> persia: it's okay...I got some other things in the pipeline before I get to the Freeze Announcment ;)
[17:58] <persia> It's a handy thing that those who send release announcements tend to be in deep negative timezones.
[18:27] <rsalveti> ogasawara: thanks for pushing the xm fixes :-)
[18:28] <ogasawara> rsalveti: np.  just finishing up a quick test build before I upload.
[18:29] <rsalveti> cool
[18:30]  * ogra cries about losing another buildd for 16h ... but you cant have everything i guess :)
[18:31]  * ScottK senses a need for another upload of qt4-x11 and qt4-qws just to make ogra feel better.
[18:31] <ogra> grrr
[18:32] <ScottK> :-)
[18:32] <ogra> we're only 78 packages and 13h behind :)
[18:32] <GrueMaster> Just imagine if someone were to fix openjdk & rebuild openoffice.
[18:32] <ogra> and have no working images yet
[18:33] <ogra> GrueMaster, OO.o is hogging one buildd already
[18:33] <ogra> luckily the maverick upload failed today else we would have one buildd less
[18:34] <ogra> since linaro and TI started using our buildds too the situation got really bad ... we urgently need more armel builders
[18:34] <ogra> but what else is new
[18:35]  * ogra will propose that packages get a maximum size limit at some point :P
[18:35] <GrueMaster> Anything I can do to help with the Dove-X0 and Babbage I have that are consuming electrons to blink lights?
[18:35] <ogra> if its more than 1M big you have to split ... muhahaha
[18:36] <ogra> i doubt lamont can make use of them at your house :)
[18:36] <GrueMaster> He just needs to add their ipv6 addresses to the table.
[18:50] <slangasek> heh
[20:07] <robbiew> persia: ogra: buuurrrrrrrr...it's getting cold in here :P
[20:07] <robbiew> freeze is on :)
[20:07] <ogra> crap, i''ll need a ton of freeze exceptions
[20:07] <ogra> we dont even have booting images yet, so we cant apply the pending fixes
[20:08] <robbiew> ogra: perhaps you can create a Master Freeze Exception request
[20:08] <robbiew> ogra: it's armel...who uses that anyway
[20:08] <robbiew> lol
[20:08] <robbiew> joking of course
[20:09] <ogra> something like that, i need to figure out where we stand first, i applied some fixes already but we need to wait for oem-config to work again ... so i'm somehat depending on the next ubiquity upload
[20:09] <ogra> robbiew, only the vendors ;)
[20:09] <ogra> and indeed us poor developers :)
[20:10] <robbiew> ogra meet ev, ev meet ogra
[20:10] <robbiew> lol
[20:10] <ogra> lol
[20:10] <ogra> he knows i'm waiting
[20:10] <ScottK> ogra: If you can make a bug of what you need uploaded to get to beta (a list) and when you expect to have it, I don't mind approving a set of changes at once.
[20:10] <ogra> i would have done an upload but there were lots of changes in the works when our fix  entered the tree so i felt i'd better wait
[20:11] <ogra> ScottK, well, i need images first to see whats needed, i know one -settings package for sure but thats trivial
[20:11] <ScottK> OK.
[20:11] <ogra> for the other packages we need to go step by step through the breakage
[20:12] <ScottK> Just seeing if we could minimize the paperwork.
[20:12] <ogra> and we at least still have some time for that
[20:12]  * ogra would love to but that requires to know whats broken in advance 
[20:12] <ogra> as soon as i do i'll file the necessary bit, probably as a list
[20:22] <ScottK> robbiew and skaet: Historically the beta freeze only applies to seeded packages.  We don't have a way to just freeze those, so all packages need manual approval, but we just push the unseeded Universe packages through without review.  I'm expecting we'll do that again.
[20:23] <robbiew> ack
[20:24]  * skaet makes note of this too...
[20:40] <ScottK> cjwatson: Can we have the release bot?
[21:43] <ev> can someone approve ubiquity 2.3.8?
[22:08] <slangasek> looks like someone just has
[22:08] <slangasek> someone else is working on the queue, then?  ScottK?
[22:08] <Riddell> I approved it
[22:08] <Riddell> we discussed it in -install
[22:09] <slangasek> ok
[22:10]  * Riddell away until monday afternoon
[22:11] <slangasek> Riddell: have a good weekend!
[22:16]  * ScottK looked at a couple of things, but isn't processing the queue.
