pitti * On track for entire cycle16:19
pitti * beta-1: not much progress last week, but the actual implementation bits are mostly done; remaining WIs fall into those categories:16:19
pitti  * Adding unit tests, human testing, etc. (not bound by FF or other freezes; b1 milestone was used mainly for planning)16:20
pitti  * Some remaining a11y work for Unity; worked on by DX, we just need to integrate once it's landing16:20
pitti  * Porting remaining software to xulrunner-2.0 (not really bound by FF, but should be done soon); stragglers will be removed from the archive; the main blocker here is swt-gtk which is required by eucalyptus, as discussed last week16:20
pitti  * Quickly improvements, which are blocked on Launchpad improvements; will likely be postponed16:20
pitti  * Sofware-Center UI enhancements: Some are probably done, but some implementation work left; will discuss with Gary16:20
pittiGeneral status:16:20
pitti * Another Unity release with a lot of bug fixes; now brings real keyboard navigation16:20

skaet[Topic] MOTU team update - ScottK16:38
MootBotNew Topic:  MOTU team update - ScottK16:38
ScottKHello again.16:38
skaet:)16:38
ScottKThe decision to revert the DSO linking changes for this cycle helps us hugely in terms of buildability.16:38
ScottKHopefully Debian will start the python2.7 transition soon and so we may benefit from fixes in Debian.16:39
ScottKNothing major to report.  There's some NBS to deal with, but it seems reasonable.16:39
ScottK..16:39
skaetThanks ScottK!  any questions?16:40

dbarth_the team made 2 releases16:42
dbarth_the overlay scrollbar appeared on the release radar however, and we're now working with platform to fix bugs and have a list of safe applications for it16:43
dbarth_also work on GL driver support (see QA section at the bottom) to make a matrix of supported configurations16:43
dbarth_we got the first batch of results from victor's team (thanks ara) and marjo's team will help us complete that with the help of the community16:43
dbarth_foundations16:44
dbarth_sound indicator release: always getting better16:44
dbarth_indicators and dbusmenu fixes: the alt keys / accelerators bugs are slowly getitng fixed; we're missing a fix at unity's level now, but that should be quick next week16:44
dbarth_a11y: lots of fixes as well16:44
dbarth_but places a11y was out of reach for this week16:45
dbarth_will re-evaluate next week16:45

dbarth_once we have that list of known/good apps16:46
dbarth_ie, next week16:46
dbarth_(can't be later than that)16:46
dbarth_overall cimi has been able to fix bugs rather quickly16:46
dbarth_11 or so still open16:46
dbarth_and huge perf. improvements were made this afternoon16:46
dbarth_in apps where it was not that good (evolution comes to mind)16:47
dbarth_(yes we can make evolution fast ;)16:47
skaetCool  :)    can you please ping me directly before scrollbar lands, so we can juggle it in with some of the other changes on toolchains, etc.16:47

holsteinif this is the general open portion16:53
skaethi holstein!  welcome.16:53
holsteinskaet: thanks :)16:53
holsteinrelating to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dbus-c++/+bug/73075916:53
ubottuUbuntu bug 730759 in dbus-c++ (Ubuntu Natty) "[MIR] b-d for libffado" [High,Incomplete]16:53
holsteinand https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libconfig/+bug/73076016:53
ubottuUbuntu bug 730760 in libconfig (Ubuntu Natty) "[MIR] b-d for libffado" [High,Incomplete]16:53
holsteinand demoting libffado from main16:53
holsteinwe (ubuntustudio) need that in the main repo16:53
holsteinand im not really sure what i can do now to help resolve the issue16:54
holsteinBUT16:54
holsteini commented on the bugs16:54
pittiare dbus-c++ and libconfig not appropriate for main?16:54
holsteinand im trying to sort it out ASAP16:54
holsteinpitti: im not sure what the deal is exactly16:55
pittilibconfig just needs a package fix to add symbol files (should go to debian as well)16:55
holsteinpitti: that sounds easy16:55
holsteinwho do i talk to about it?16:56
pittiyou can't/don't want to fix yourself?16:56
Davieylooks like holstein is happy to chase this issue, i wonder if doko would help liase with him offline.16:56
pittiany ubuntu dev should be able to do it really16:56
holsteinpitti: i will if i can16:56
* holstein is a musician16:56
holsteinim not a total newb16:56
holsteinbut im not quite up to the task im afraid16:56
holsteinyeah, chasing is not a problem16:57
Davieyholstein, Lets track it, and discuss it in -devel.16:57
holsteinOR if its something i can read about and learn to fix16:57
holsteinim in16:57
pittithe other is a bigger problem -- if the package is orphaned in Debian, someone in Ubuntnu needs to maintain it16:57
holsteinpitti: i could probably find that too16:57
holsteina maintainer16:57
holsteini can ask16:57
pittiotherwise we need to disable the feature, or roll back to an earlier version (which isn't a long-term solution, though)16:57
pittiholstein: someone from ubuntustudio ideally, as they would care most about this, perhaps?16:58
holsteinpitti: right, i have a few ideas16:58
Daviey(mythbuntu dropped the dep on it today BTW)16:58
holsteinpitti: i am from ubuntustudio ;)16:58
pittifor now, adding symbols files would come a long way towards making it more appropriate16:58
holsteinwe have some new actual dev-types though16:58
holsteinpitti: can i contact you about this?16:59
holsteinwith questions or whatever?16:59
holsteinand what kind of time frame are we talking?16:59
pittiI guess dbus-C++ doesn't need a lot of maintenance, it's just a binding16:59
holsteina week?16:59
holsteincouple days?16:59
pittiholstein: yeah, I hang out in devel16:59
pittiholstein: by beta-1 would be good16:59
skaetholstein, thanks for bringing the issue up.    yeah getting this all resolved before beta-1 would be good.17:00
holsteinskaet pitti - that should not be a problem17:00
holsteini'll chase it, and thank you17:00
skaet:)17:01
