[00:47] * greg-g waves [00:58] * beuno waves [00:58] hiya [00:58] hola, amigos [00:58] hiya maco :) [00:59] o/ [00:59] so, should we get this party started? [00:59] sure [01:00] #startmeeting [01:00] Meeting started at 19:00. The chair is pleia2. [01:00] Commands Available: [TOPIC], [IDEA], [ACTION], [AGREED], [LINK], [VOTE] [01:00] Hello and welcome to the Ubuntu Membership Review Board for the Americas meeting for February 18th, 2011. The wiki page for the Review Board is available here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Membership/RegionalBoards/Americas [01:00] We 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. [01:00] The format for the meeting is as follows: We will go through the list of applicants one by one, by date of application (FIFO). [01:00] Each 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. [01:01] During 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. [01:01] When 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!) [01:01] Now, with any further ado, lets get started with the first applicant... [01:01] geeknik doesn't appear to be here [01:02] james78 are you here? [01:02] Roger. [01:02] great! [01:02] [TOPIC] james78 membership [01:02] New Topic: james78 membership [01:02] Alright. Here goes. [01:03] I'm a computer geek (haha), been using Ubuntu since 8.04 LTS, and never turned back since really. [01:03] I enjoy programming in my spare time, (PHP, Python, etc) [01:04] More recently I've gotten involved with Ubuntu Server. I've setup my own site using it (including BIND, Apache, Postfix, all the works!). [01:04] I've learned a lot through the process. [01:04] I'm applying for membership because I'd like to get more involved in helping out (tech support). [01:05] For example, making wiki pages, help documenation, and especially the Ubuntu Forums. [01:05] I'm a very active member on the Ubuntu Forums in fact. :) [01:05] since you said you went and learned to handle server stuff, any chance you've been helping folks out in #ubuntu-server? [01:05] If you've seen my recent Wiki page vs last time, I've launched a new phpBB MODification also (PHP). [01:05] (if this is on your wiki page, sorry, my connection is really slow) [01:06] maco: I'm not very active in IRC type things yet, but I plan on soon helping people out a lot in IRC as well as the original methods. [01:06] or mailing list or server subforum.... [01:07] server questions tend to go unanswered in #ubuntu due to being a bit specialised knowledge, so getting more help on that front is always nice [01:07] On Ubuntu Forums I help out mostly in Server Platforms and General Help. :) [01:07] Good to know. :) [01:07] I'd be happy to help out more on that front. [01:07] james78: You mentioned wanting to do some work with the doc team. Have you done any so far? [01:08] nhandler: I haven't done any doc work yet, that's one of my future goals at the moment, but right now, like I said, my most main goals are tech support and more tech support. :) [01:09] If anyone wants to see an example of some work I've done for my website in fact. http://paste.umaclan.com/ [01:09] I've made most of that from scratch, the theme especially, but also most of the features. [01:10] It's made in Python, using Werkzeug atm. [01:10] james78: so uh, in what part of the world are you? Is there a LoCo nearby? [01:11] I live in Washington, US. This was a topic of discussion last time in fact! There is a Washington LoCo team, however I don't know at the moment exactly where they're located though. [01:11] I plan on finding out. :) [01:11] james78: (when you're done with maco's question) You listed some bug work, have you gotten involved with the bug squad? read the triaging guides? [01:12] ah ok, sorry i missed last month. i think i was moving to the /other/ washington :) [01:12] james78: i believe there are some in the Seattle direction. valorie in #kubuntu could give you info [01:12] to/close to [01:12] ScottK: across the street [01:12] very close [01:13] greg-g: That was another one of my goals slated for the future. My bug work currently has just been reporting, confirming, and the like. [01:13] maco: 6 hours from here. :/ I live in a small town. [01:13] ah, I see. [01:13] james78: well valorie's involved in organising things over there, so she could probably tell you what's on your side of the state [01:13] worth a shot at least [01:13] Indeed. (: [01:15] Right now I'm working on increasing my knowledge of Python, and I plan to sometime start using something liek pyGTK and pyKDE to make some useful apps, then get them into the repositories. Still researching ideas for good apps though. [01:16] james78, I really like all the help you've been giving out in the forums [01:16] james78: last month I mentioned that "we'd really like to see you getting into some of those areas you mentioned, documentation, packaging, bug triaging and reporting" [01:16] I think I'd really like to see more of this, maybe going ahead and getting involved with bug squad if bugs are the way you want to go (looks like you have started!) [01:17] In fact, I actually have a KDE bug I need to report ha. Kubuntu backports. :P [01:17] james78: fixing up existing apps also = helpful [01:18] beuno: Thanks. :) [01:18] so if you see a bug on launchpad in a python app.. [01:18] I really recommend getting involved with the bug triaging team. they're very friendly and helpful. The IRC channel (#ubuntu-bugs) is a great place to hang out. [01:18] Also, if you have any questions about triaging, feel free to ping me in #ubuntu-bugs and I can probably help you out. [01:19] greg-g: Alrighty. [01:20] james78: https://bugs.launchpad.net/~pythonistas/+packagebugs are bugs in Python packages that maco can upload the fix if you can tell her what it is. [01:20] ScottK: they're all motu-capable packages? [01:21] Oh, by the way, last time I was here, it was also mentioned that I should get a few more recommendations. I worked hard (Ubuntu Forums) and asked a lot of people to give me some recommendations, 2 or 3 more (that aren't on my wiki page) said they would, but didn't do it I guess. I however did get another recommendation from 1 user, and from a ubuntu forums staff member (cariboo907 I think). [01:21] maco: Modulo it takes manual updates to keep things correct when stuff gets promoted, yes. [01:21] I hope that's enough. ;) [01:21] james78, so, I hate to do this again, but I think we'd like to see a little bit more involvement in the community, get some endorsements from existing ubuntu members [01:22] get more integrated into the existing channels [01:22] Alright. [01:23] if you find a way to have an in-person event, photos are a valid replacement for a testimonial about it [01:23] you seem to be helping out a huge amount in the forums, there will soon be ubuntu memberships given our for participating in the forums, maybe that's a good place to focus on? [01:23] thanks for all your hard work james78 :) [01:23] beuno: My main area of what I do is tech support actually, mostly via the forums. :) [01:24] james78: If you want to get involved in fixing Python stuff, you can ping me on #ubuntu-motu. [01:24] artfwo, you reay? [01:24] yes. [01:24] [TOPIC] artfwo Membership [01:24] New Topic: artfwo Membership [01:24] james78, yeah, super valuable. I don't want you to get discouraged by this :) [01:24] Thanks. My real name is Artem (pronounced Artyom), I'm from Russia. I am a long-time user of open-source hardware and software, and I started contributing to Ubuntu since Dapper mainly through the Russian translation team. [01:24] Occasionally, I've fixed bugs and worked on MOTU tasks. I've also been involved in local activism. [01:24] I tried to collect all of my activities on my wiki page: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ArtemPopov/Activity It's all documented there and I have little to add to it. [01:26] artfwo: I see a number of Natty uploads. Any plans to apply to work towards upload privileges? [01:26] I'd like to support artfwo. His intermittent, but sustained work with the development teams has consistently improved the experience for some users who would otherwise be poorly served. [01:27] artfwo, you have an impressive track record! [01:27] wow, you do work all over the place :) [01:27] nhandler: yes, in the future. I don't feel like I'm experienced enough for MOTU yet. [01:27] Ah, I just saw the goals section on your other wiki page [01:27] persia: thanks for that [01:27] persia: Thank you [01:27] persia: thanks! [01:27] thanks persia [01:27] artfwo, After this many years, it's just nice to see you finally applying for membership :) [01:28] ooooh, support from persia! can't get better than that [01:28] beuno: I'm feeling the same [01:28] :) [01:28] I also like the translation work you've done [01:29] ditto, I'm impressed with the record here. Even if persia called it intermittent. [01:29] [VOTE] artfwo Membership [01:29] Please vote on: artfwo Membership.

[01:30] looks like geeknik, matthewrohaly and DBO still aren't around, so I think we'll wrap this up [01:30] yeah [01:30] thanks everyone :) [01:31] gives me time to go get ice cream [01:31] #endmeeting [01:31] Meeting finished at 19:31. [01:31] artfwo: Also, be sure to add your blog to the planet [01:31] did I say that out load? [01:31] beuno: :) [01:31] thanks everyone! [01:31] Great meeting [01:31] * beuno waves [01:32] did anyone even scrolled down to the pics of our release parties? :) [01:32] yep, and those great little ubuntu buttons!

[16:10] We did add a new member to our team: micahg. He will be handling browser related items in the stable releases (eg, webkit, mozilla, chromium) as well as helping prepare the dev release to make it easier to maintain. Welcome micahg! [16:10] We have no remaining milestoned features or bugs for alpha-3. bug #718208 is being worked on and sponsored by the security team. I may have time to look at bug #702774 this coming week. [16:10] Launchpad bug 718208 in openssl (Ubuntu Natty) "CVE-2011-0014" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/718208 [16:10] Launchpad bug 702774 in apparmor (Ubuntu) "Update of AppArmor disables libvirtd dynamic profiles" [Undecided,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/702774 [16:10] For feature freeze, we plan to upload the apparmor 2.6 rc userspace early next week. We already have a pre-release version in natty, so are not expecting any issues. [16:10] We added a couple more bugs to our list of interesting bugs (to us) from other teams: bug #663294 and bug #716703. [16:10] Launchpad bug 663294 in gcc-4.5 (Ubuntu Natty) "Firefox built with gcc-4.5 is a non-starter on i386 with -pie" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/663294 [16:10] Launchpad bug 716703 in chromium-browser (Ubuntu Natty) "chromium-browser not built PIE on ARM" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/716703 [16:10] As a personal note, I can say that unity/compiz has been much more stable for me lately. thanks! [16:11] .. [16:11] thanks jdstrand [16:11] welcome micahg! :) [16:12] I'm experimenting with ways of denoting the bugs of interest to the security team in the agenda summaries, so may ping you off line about that. [16:12] skaet_: ack [16:12] any questions? [16:12] [Topic] Kernel team update - apw [16:12] New Topic: Kernel team update - apw [16:12] Overall status is reported at the first link below. Burn down for the release milestone is at the second link below. Burndown for the cycle is at the third link: [16:13] [LINK] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeam/ReleaseStatus/Natty [16:13] [LINK] http://people.canonical.com/~platform/workitems/natty/canonical-kernel-team-natty-alpha-3.html [16:13] [LINK] http://people.canonical.com/~platform/workitems/natty/canonical-kernel-team.svg [16:13] LINK received: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeam/ReleaseStatus/Natty [16:13] LINK received: http://people.canonical.com/~platform/workitems/natty/canonical-kernel-team-natty-alpha-3.html [16:13] LINK received: http://people.canonical.com/~platform/workitems/natty/canonical-kernel-team.svg [16:13] We are a bit above the line on the burn-down but that is mostly an artifact of there being so very few specific items for our team. The natty kernel is now at v2.6.38-4.31 (v2.6.38-rc5 based). We are expecting v2.6.38-rc6 to release imminently and we plan on uploading as soon as that is available. Overall we have most of our development out of the way, with just the ecryptfs long filename work ongoing, we are now tracking mainline and fielding issu [16:13] es as they appear. It looks like the v2.6.38 final will drop arround A3 so we should have a good period of stabalisation before final release. [16:13] Of the bugs called out on the agenda against the kernel, status is as below: [16:13] #344878 ecryptfs long filename prototype continues to evolve with a second push going to upstream, the on-disk format is not yet agreed and this is highly unlikely to be resolved in time; [16:13] #539467 SATA alpm is now disabled in userspace, upstream discussions are ongoing; [16:13] #542660, still present, needs pushing upstream; [16:13] #600453 and #681877 (all black screen issues) a fix for this issue has been identified and pulled into the Natty kernel and will hit in the next upload; [16:13] #630748 remains waiting on Intel for updated wireless firmware; [16:13] #636091 is looking like a locking issue in USB, possibly to do with the BKL, investigation continues; and [16:13] #702090 looks to be an interaction with vesafb, upstream are saying "don't do that". [16:13] The other bugs seem to be non-kernel packages, status is recorded on our status page where available (first link above). [16:13] .. [16:14] Thanks apw. good news about 2.6.38 and a nice stable sabilisation period. [16:15] yeah i was worried but these -rc's have come out smartish, and things are settling [16:15] and i am pleased to have the black screens on those dells sorted [16:15] *\o/* on that one. Will work through the bugs a bit, and get with you offine. thanks for the details. :) [16:16] any questions?

Somewhat blocked on the nvidia item due to the incompatibility with the new X server (is that still the case?), but will build on 10.10 if need be. [16:16] Team summary: I've been tackling moving the installer session to compiz. Colin has been working on the bootstrap project, with 10.04.2 work as well. GRUB on the CDs is likely to be deferred to O. [16:16] Barry has been tackling bugs in python, computer-janor, wubi, and a few others. Surbhi is debugging mountall/upstart communication. doko brought updates to gcc-4.4, gcc-4.5, and binutils.

[16:37] LINK received: https://launchpad.net/unity/+milestone/3.6 [16:37] Features wise, there aren't many that are missing, main concern is the panel + launcher a11y landing before A3 so we get testing [16:37] Graphics wise, we're kinda stuck on fixing nvidia/fglrx bugs until new drivers come out, but we're going to try and make sure at least Intel and Radeon are good for A3 so we get testers [16:37] LINK received: http://people.canonical.com/~pitti/workitems/natty/canonical-dx-team.html [16:37] Compiz should be a lot better for everyone, but there are still niggles to fix. We might punt them 'till after A3 (non-criticals) so we can add remaining features [16:37] Foundations wise, all the indicator work is landing in time, both indicator-sound and -datime are gaining features quickly and should be feature complete for A3 (with bugs to fix, of course!) [16:37] dbusmenu has had lots of performance and bug fixing work, as well as a11y work and that should be good for FF [16:37] The two Unity buglists I pointed to still need cutting down to mostly features instead of bugs but everyone knows what they need to do for A3 [16:37] bug update: [16:37] 637827 Firefox and Thunderbird (XUL) menus dont appear in the menu bar (firefox): FF done (waiting for ACK from Moz), TB done [16:37] 657771 'Keep in launcher' item missing for some applications (unity): A3 targetted [16:38] 685682 compiz crashed with SIGSEGV in nux::IOpenGLSurface::UnlockRect: Driver related (passed to AMD) inprogress [16:38] 689179 Pressing Alt key does not underline mnemonics: A3 targetted [16:38] 692823 compiz crashed with SIGSEGV in nux::BaseTexture::GetDeviceTexture: incomplete [16:38] 705347 compiz crashes in add_match_done (dconf)(compiz): fixed (patch in transit) [16:38] 662077 WxWidgetsWxWidgets apps don't have menus (appmenu-gtk): fixed upstream, need to sync [16:38] 690537 Unity app launcher is filled up with doublettes (unity): fixed [16:38] 683065 Menu bar becomes blank periodically: fixed [16:38] ..? [16:39] I'm assuming no messages came through?

[16:39] ah, sorry [16:39] lol [16:39] no worries [16:39] yeah, not much more to say really :) [16:40] thanks njpatel. [16:40] there are some bugs that are milestoned to A3, that I don't think will get fixed [16:40] can someone take a look at them, and adjust the milestones if that's the case? [16:40] yep, that's the plan [16:41] we cna also move some actual bugs 'till after FF [16:41] and concentrate on the features [16:41] * skaet_ nods [16:41] will try and have it done monday morning, just so it's easier to track (team already knows what they need to do) [16:41] yup. for the bugs that wont be able to be handled after FF, please move the milestones. monday's good. thanks! [16:42] any other questions? [16:42] njpatel, by the way, very very glad to hear compiz is improving. :) [16:43] heh, as are we ;) [16:43] [Topic] ARM team update - ogra [16:43] New Topic: ARM team update - ogra [16:43] oh, me !
