[00:05] <smoser> erichammond, i had pinged amazon offline regarding https://forums.aws.amazon.com/thread.jspa?threadID=58232
[00:05] <smoser> benh there said he'd forward it on
[00:06] <erichammond> smoser: ok.  just trying to help.
[00:06] <smoser> yeah.
[00:06] <smoser> i submitted another patch for ec2-ami-tools about 18 montsh ago i think
[00:06] <smoser> which has not seen the light of day
[00:07] <flaccid> yeah, those tools don't return non zero exit codes in a lot of places too which is a fai.
[00:07] <flaccid> *fail
[00:07] <erichammond> I'm sitting on a couple patches I should really include in software I maintain, so I'm not going to point fingers.
[00:08] <flaccid> yeah but you ack them are will actually commit them :)
[00:08] <flaccid> are=and
[00:09] <smoser> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ec2-ami-tools/+bug/439788
[00:09] <smoser> we carry that patch, which is actually moderate security issue if you were concerned about 2 users using bundle-vol on the same system
[00:09] <flaccid> but getting it upstream is a different story right?
[00:10] <smoser> yeah.
[00:11] <smoser> we had to carry that one, as 2 bundle-vol commands run at the same time (even by a different user) wreak havok
[00:11] <smoser> sorry
[00:11] <smoser> s/bundle-vol/bundle-image/
[00:11] <smoser> bundle-image doesn't even require root
[00:11] <smoser> anyway
[08:56] <tronda> Can the write-mime-multipart command be run on Windows?
[08:56] <tronda> If not - is there any alternative tools to use on Windows?
[09:30] <kim0> tronda: it's python, so might run on windows .. or u can run it in an ubuntu VM
[09:31] <tronda> kim0: thanks for the feedback. I will try it. Would like it to be cross platform so that developers can run it on from their dev computer regardsless of the environment
[09:34] <kim0> ah ok
[09:56] <tronda> kim0: Trying to navigate the lp source browser, but can't seem to find the tool. Do you know where it is located?
[09:56] <kim0> lp:cloud-init
[09:56] <kim0> I think ?
[09:57] <tronda> kim0: Thought it would be here: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~cloud-init-dev/cloud-init/trunk/files/head:/tools/
[09:57] <kim0> branch that then "find . -name '*mime*'
[09:58] <kim0> no it's not there
[09:59] <kim0> tronda: try loooking here http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-on-ec2/ubuntu-on-ec2/cloud-utils/files
[10:00] <tronda> kim0: Thanks

[18:01] <kim0> Edulix: semiosis I'll enjoy your sessions :)
[18:02] <kim0> If anyone would like to hold a session, it's definitely still possible
[18:02] <kim0> Please get a hold of me
[18:03] <kim0> or directly edit the wiki page and ping me later
[18:37] <semiosis> kim0: thanks, i must have missed that the first time around
[18:38] <kim0> semiosis: no problemo
[18:38] <kim0> I'm writing a confirmation email now to send to everyone with a session
[18:40] <kim0> smoser Hi .. Getting a question on cloud portal "Will you release a Cluster Compute Instance for lucid lynx?"
[18:41] <smoser> no
[18:41]  * kim0 nods
[18:41] <smoser> s/no/maybe/
[18:42] <smoser> it would possibly be doable, and i dont think it would be terribly difficult.
[18:42] <smoser> but i have no plans to do so
[18:43] <kim0> smoser: can I say, "It's doable, but there are no current plans. If you want to make it happen, we'll help" ?
[18:43] <kim0> and by we I mean mostly you :D
[18:45] <kim0> nvm, saying "If you want to make it happen, get on the mailing list, ask for it, and help make it happen. I'll help you in any way I can"
[18:48] <smoser> so... yeah, we could do it if there were demand, and i would definitely understand someone's interest in lucid rather than natty
[18:49] <smoser> and it would not be significantly more to build one than just flipping a value in one of the publishing scripts
[18:49] <smoser> (i dont think)
[18:51] <smoser> but its a matter of testing and such that might make it a  bigger pain.  and i think there might be an issue with lucid kernels . have to see.
[18:51] <kim0> yeah makes sense
[18:52] <kim0> btw any idea why AWS and Rackspace use Xen and not KVM :) Is it that not-ready
[18:54] <smoser> kim0, so to get a test... http://paste.ubuntu.com/581253/
[18:55] <smoser> i'm sure there are lots of reasons
[18:55] <smoser> and i'm sure a xen fan would give you some
[18:55] <smoser> but largely i would expect that they use it because they used it in the past
[18:55] <kim0> hmm ok
[18:55] <smoser> and have large amounts of code (and customer code and customer images) that prevent them from dropping it
[19:15] <smoser> kim0, ok. i enabled the build of a lucid daily for hvm
[19:15] <kim0> hehe awesome :)
[19:16] <kim0> were you too tempted
[19:19] <smoser> dont knwo if it will fail or not. lucid server builds friday 06:00 UTC
