hrwhi RAOF13:59
* hrw back in 5-10 minutes14:00
RAOFEvening/afternoon/morning :)14:00
cyphermoxhey RAOF.14:01
RAOFThird time's the charm? :)14:02
stgraberhello14:03
bdrunghi14:03
bdrungDMB meeting?14:03
stgraberyep, assuming we have quorum14:04
stgrabermaco, cody-somerville, Laney: ping ?14:04
stgrabergoing to go get a coffee while waiting for them to show up, will be back in 2 minutes14:05
stgraberouch, doesn't look good for quorum :(14:08
bdrungthat's not good14:09
RAOFLaney was around not *that* long ago :/14:09
bdrungquestion while waiting: can we do have a session at the UDS?14:11
stgrabera session as in ? DMB meeting at UDS or some kind of DMB review session (like what we did for the ARB at last UDS) ?14:13
psusishoot, did I miss the DMB?14:15
stgrabernope, it didn't start yet14:15
stgraberwe're waiting for other DMB members to arrive as we don't currently have quorum14:15
bdrungstgraber: DMB meeting14:15
psusiahh, whew...14:15
bdrungbut we could do a review session too14:16
psusiwas it supposed to start 20 minutes ago, or 1:20 ago?14:16
stgraberbdrung: we tried that last time but couldn't get enough DMB members to attend so we had to postpone14:16
bdrungstgraber: it will be my first uds14:17
RAOFpsusi: 20 minutes ago.14:17
stgraberbdrung: I wouldn't count on us being able to have quorum during UDS but we can always try it. It really depends on what sessions are running at the same time.14:19
stgraberbdrung: if I'm not wrong in my timezone calculation, it'll be at 2pm Budapest time so either still during plenaries or the first session after the plenaries14:20
bdrungstgraber: 3pm Budapest time14:23
hrwin worst situation applying for UD will take similar amount then it takes for DD14:23
stgraberbdrung: oh, ok, then definitely during afternoon sessions :) will have to look at the schedule once we have it to see if I can make it14:23
stgrabermaco, cody-somerville, Laney: ping (again :))14:24
bdrungstgraber: what's with geser and persia?14:25
stgraberI don't know, they aren't in this channel. IIRC geser said he couldn't make it at this time and I haven't seen persia in a while14:26
hrw;(14:30
RAOFWell, we'll get to catch up with persia at UDS at least :)14:30
ogra_persia has connection issues thanks to all the quakes14:32
stgraberogra_: I was suspecting it might have something to do with that :(14:32
ogra_he was fine on thu. which is when i talked to him last by phone14:33
stgraberok, I guess at this point it's not very likely for any of the others to show up and still leave a reasonable amount of time for the meeting :(14:35
hrwyep ;(14:35
hrw3rd meeting for me14:35
RAOFLikewise.14:35
stgraberRAOF, hrw: can you two only make it to our 13:00 UTC meeting ? it seems to be the most problematic one for DMB members (even though the move to an hour later was meant to fix that ...)14:36
RAOFstgraber: I've been to two of the 13:00 and the intervening one last fortnight.14:37
RAOFThe other one is early, but still doable.14:37
* cyphermox will be back in about 30 min.14:37
stgraberok, I'll suggest on the mailing-list that we schedule another meeting at 13:00 UTC next week but only announce it if we can have quorum (as in, poke people on our mailing-list to confirm they can attend).14:38
hrwstgraber: I can manage 5:00 - 20:00 UTC (7-22 my time)14:38
* RAOF isn't wedded to 13:00 UTC. 11pm isn't exactly perfect ;)14:39
hrwstgraber: +/- 1h if needed14:39
stgraberok, I'm sending an e-mail now to our mailing-list, to see if we can get the meeting rescheduled for next week, and hopefully make sure we can quorum for that next meeting (13:00 UTC) and the one after (19:00 UTC) as we have a pretty long backlog14:41
hrwok, so see you in 2 weeks14:46
stgraberhrw, RAOF: Ok, e-mail sent to DMB mailing list. Thanks for coming to this meeting and sorry we didn't have quorum.14:48
stgraberhrw, RAOF: If we can schedule that extra meeting, I'll be sending an e-mail to ubuntu-devel and will be contacting everyone listed in the agenda to tell them about it.14:49
cyphermoxthanks stgraber.14:49

skaet[TOPIC] Karmic/Hardy Desktop - EOL approaching16:04
MootBotNew Topic:  Karmic/Hardy Desktop - EOL approaching16:04
skaetJust a reminder that April 2011 will see end of life of Karmic Koala (9.10), and Hardy Heron (8.04) Desktop.16:04
* ara doesn't know whether to feel happy or sad16:05
skaetI've staggered the actual close dates, so they don't all land on the same week with the Natty release.16:05
* sconklin is dancing16:05
skaetHardy Heron desktop will EOL mid may.16:05
skaetnote for it will go out today.16:06
skaetKarmic's one month announce note has already gone out.16:06
skaetsconklin,  since server is still supported, I assume this doesn't change the workload for you on heron then.   is this correct?16:07
skaetserver on Heron to be clear16:07
ScottKThe workload reduction comes in June when Dapper vanishes completely.16:07
* skaet nods16:07
sconklinskaet: that's pretty much correct. We're currently only taking upstream stable and security fixes, and that continues for server.16:07
skaetsconklin,  thanks for confirming.16:08
skaetDapper Drake (6.06) Server will end of life in June 2011.16:08
sconklinHaving Dapper gone will be a big load off of us. It's very different to maintain than the subsequent series.16:08
skaet:)16:09
skaetAny concerns or issues to flag with the approaching EOLs?16:09
skaet[TOPIC] Kernel SRU status - sconklin, bjf16:09
MootBotNew Topic:  Kernel SRU status - sconklin, bjf16:09
pittijust that we can probably retire the remaining -proposed uploads16:09
sconklinThere will be no more uploads from the stable kernel team for Karmic16:10
sconklinunless there's a security emergency16:10
sconklinCurrent status:16:10
sconklinEverything is ready to be published as soon as signed off by cert and QA, except for Lucid -16:11
sconklinThere was a regression in the Lucid kernel that has been fixed with a single change and a new upload to -proposed.16:11
sconklinIt would be ideal for the new kernel to receive a complete set of tests, but there is relatively low risk in16:11
sconklinverifying that the change fixes the regression and performing minimal testing otherwise.16:11
sconklinI leave that decision up to the team here and depending on scheduling16:11
sconklin..16:11
skaetsconklin,  thanks.16:12
pittiright, testing should be proportional to the amount of changes, no objection16:12
arao/16:12
skaetgo ara16:12
arafor the .61 lucid kernel testing16:13
arais there going to be a verification phase and and testing phase?16:13
ara..16:14
sconklinThere could be, or we could pursue them in parallel since it's only verification of one fix16:14
arawe could have try to fit a minimum for certification testing next week16:15
araor later this week16:15
arai.e. aiming to run the tests against ~30 systems rather than 10016:15
sconklinI'm comfortable with that16:15
skaetfitting in QA testing is probably going to be a concern,  depends on how natty testing goes.16:16
skaetanyone from QA around?  (/me just saw jibel drop)16:16
pedro_o/16:16
bjfara, how long does it take to run the tests on all 100?16:16
arabjf, it can take up to two days16:16
skaetpedro_, is there bandwidth at the later part of the week to check out the lucid kernel?16:16
bjfara, thanks, that's good info to know16:17
sconklinas far as I know, there's no huge hurry to get this kernel out16:17
skaetsconklin,  that's good to know.16:18
pedro_skaet, yes, if it gets verified soon we can work on it after ISO Testing and before that as well, meaning tomorrow and Friday16:18
skaetpedro_, ok,  am thinking we'll be iso testing tomorrow as well, but Friday is possible.16:18
skaetgood to know.16:18
skaetany more questions for sconklin?16:19
* skaet looks around ...16:19
skaet[TOPIC] QA status - pedro_16:19
MootBotNew Topic:  QA status - pedro_16:19
skaetpedro_, do you have something prepared, or should we skip?16:20
pedro_hello, We've verified the Maverick kernel last week, you can see the full results of that here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/KernelSRU-maverick-2.6.35-28.5016:20
skaet:)16:21
pedro_the issues listed there are not regressions, that verification was added to the security script after the kernel came out16:21
pedro_that's already fixed by the security team in their branch16:22
pedro_Lucid .60 was also verified last week but later on that testing cycle a regression was found by a community member so we stop16:22
pedro_but in case you want to see the results, the wiki page is at: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/KernelSRU-lucid-2.6.32-31.6016:23
pedro_the errors listed there are GCC ones/script ones and not regressions16:23
pedro_and btw if you want to see all the results there's a new page with those: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/KernelSRUResults16:23
pedro_..16:24
skaetThanks pedro!16:24
skaet2.6.35-28.50-generic/amd64 (KVM) with DBENCH failed.   is this anything to worry about?16:24
skaet(on maverick results.. )16:24
pedro_skaet, nope that's one issue that only hggdh is able to reproduce in his kvm installation16:25
pedro_so no regression there either16:25

araWe got a coverage of 102/105 in Lucid and 105/116 in Maverick. Remember that this is the first cycle where we aim to test all the certified systems, rather than 75 systems for each release of the previous cycles.16:26
MootBotLINK received:  http://people.canonical.com/~hwcert/sru-testing/current/16:26
araNo regressions were found. We have updated both tracking bugs with this information.16:26

bjfskaet, what are you looking for in a summary ?16:28
* skaet should not have used the word tracking... sorry.16:28
araNo, those were failing due to problems with the infrastructure16:28
skaetara,  ok,  that's what I was trying to figure out.  :)16:28
skaetand the answer I was hoping to hear ;)16:28

* Daviey reads16:35
Davieyso, it's not sure if it is a bug with ruby or rails16:35
Davieyrails can trigger a seg fault in ruby16:35
DavieyI have fixed the bug in rails... but is it still and issue with core ruby?16:35
martins-supportI can have the pse run through the test case again16:36

martins-supportthanks16:38
skaetmartins-support, is there a bug for the open-likewise issue, or some specific help needed from someone?16:38

ScottKskaet: FYI, KDE 4.5.5 is in queue for Maverick -proposed/updates.16:55
skaetScottK,  what's the system integration testing planned for KDE 4.5.5 before it goes out from -proposed/updates?17:05
* skaet also figures we should probably move this to #ubuntu-release17:05
ScottKskaet: It's been tested for a lot time in ~kubuntu-ppa.  Once it's in maverick-proposed we'll call for additional testing.17:05
ScottKlot/long17:05
skaetScottK,  ok, so we'll be looking for your ok or Riddell's then, after the testing is in, before moving to -updates?17:06
ScottKYes.  The standard whine at pitti until he agrees we've tested it enough.17:07
skaetfair enough.   Should I add you to the agenda for the next couple of SRU meetings then, so we can track this a bit?17:09
skaetScottK, ^^ ?17:09
ScottKI don't think it's necessary.  I think it's adequately tracked through the normal SRU process.17:10
ScottKSInce it's not LTS, there's no respin implications.17:10
skaetScottK,  ok.  Meeting is SRU and LTS,  and I was just a bit concerned there may be interacations with some kernel graphics drivers, etc. to worry about - so would be useful for the other teams to be aware.   But lets see how it goes, and if all works smoothly no reason to make the meeting longer ;)17:13

MootBotNew Topic:  Weekly stand-up report18:18
jdstrandI'll go first18:18
jdstrandI had a short week last week and am in the happy place this week18:19
jdstrandI am working on 2 kde updates right now (kde4libs and kdenetwork)18:19
jdstrandthe former should be uploaded to the security ppa in a little bit18:20
jdstrandthere are a number of bugs I need to follow up on-- a couple which will be rather time consuming (two different kernel bisections). I'm going to try to get to them this week18:20
jdstrandarchive admin for beta-218:20
jjohansenjdstrand: anything you want to point me at there?18:21
jdstrandand more with performance reviews18:21
jdstrandjjohansen: well, they are kernel bugs seemingly unique to my hardware-- the kvm guest corruption and then a video driver issue18:21
jdstrandjjohansen: thanks for the offer though. I may have some questions on the process as I haven't done a kernel bisection in a while, but we'll see how it goes18:22
jjohansenjdstrand: right, well I have access to a big machine for building bisected kernels if you want :)18:22
jdstrandjjohansen: thanks for the offer though18:22
jdstrandjjohansen: ah, well, maybe I will then :)18:22
jdstrandjjohansen: thanks!18:22
jdstrandI also will be working on the usn microsite this week. it is hoped to go live soon (and the usn databse needs to be updated for those USNs where the isummary was not updated)18:23
jdstrand(more on the usn microsite later)18:24
jdstrandI have several things to bring up after the standup reports18:24
jdstrandkees: you're up18:24
keesokay, last week, I did a bunch of stuff with unity18:25
keesfirst, complaining about it, then opening bugs18:25
keesdid my patch pilot cycle18:25
keesbeen trying to catch up on the state of kernel hardening again. some things have changed recently at redhat, so who manages nx-emu is up in the air again18:26
keestrying to get ahead of my email too. down to 82 in my inbox. unfortunately they're all "hard" emails. :)18:27
keesthis coming week I was going to poke around at the beta + qrt and see if anything pops out18:27
keesthere are some kernel USNs coming down the pipe18:27
keesthat's it from me.18:28
jdstrandmdeslaur: you're next18:28
jdstrandkees: thanks18:28
mdeslaurokie dokie18:28
mdeslaurI'm currently testing dhcpd3 updates, will publish them this afternoon18:29
mdeslaurand have some more updates to test18:29
mdeslaurwill probably be publishing them this week18:29
mdeslaurand then, I'm going down the list18:29
jdstrandmdeslaur: re dhcp3> that is the one you pushed to natty last week?18:29
mdeslaurnothing too exciting :)18:29
mdeslaurjdstrand: yes18:29
mdeslaurthat's it from me18:29
* jdstrand did a dhcp/natty upload today for an apparmor fix and wanted to make sure we were on the same page18:30
mdeslaurjdstrand: I'm on page 37, last paragraph18:30
jdstrandmdeslaur: cool, me too18:30
sbeattiemdeslaur: what's that in kindle terms, 28%?18:30
mdeslaurjdstrand: hehe, yeah it's the same CVE as the one in natty that I uploaded friday18:30
mdeslaursbeattie: 1104-1324 whatever that means :)18:31
jdstrandsbeattie: you're up18:31
jdstrandhehe18:31
sbeattieLet's see, I'm on triage this week.18:31
sbeattieI'm also currently working on php5 and ia32-libs.18:31
sbeattieI poked around last week a bit with the jenkins packaging ppa (continuous integration tool), and have made good progress on getting automated apparmor builds going.18:32
sbeattieI'm also eyeing jenkins for some qa-r-t automation.18:33
sbeattieI think that's it for me.18:33
jdstrandcool :)18:33
jdstrandmicahg_: you're next18:33
micahg_so, there's still a chromium update lingering, but we're blocked on the password loss regression18:34
micahg_there should be a round of mozilla updates to test soon18:34
jdstrandmicahg_: what is the status of the password loss? is upstream doing anything about it?18:35
micahg_and I hope to start working through natty QRT testing18:35
micahg_jdstrand: doesn't seem like it18:35
jdstrandmicahg_: aiui, if we upload people lose access to all their saved passwords. is that correct?18:35
micahg_most probably, yes18:36
jdstrandmicahg_: does it stay broken or can people start saving again and it works?18:36
micahg_jdstrand: they can start saving again, but there will be another update later which might "fix" it later18:37
jdstrandmicahg_: so then they end up with 2 different password databases (essentially)?18:37
=== Ursinha-afk is now known as Ursinha
micahg_yes18:37
jdstrandugh18:38
jdstrandmicahg_: and there is no movement upstream?18:38
micahg_maybe even 3 depending on the setup (GNOME, KDE, internal)18:38
micahg_doesn't seem to be, they promise to fix it later and give workarounds18:39
jdstrandwas the problem caused because we (ie Ubuntu chromium maintainer) used the new password functionality two early (ie did we enable something experimental)? are any of these workarounds things that can be packaged?18:40
jdstrandmicahg_: ^18:40
jdstrands/two/too/18:40
micahg_jdstrand: no, it's because one of the new features in Chromium 10 interacts poorly with the GNOME keyring18:41
* jdstrand shakes head18:41
micahg_fta was looking into packaging one of the workarounds, but the problem is, it doesn't work all the time18:41
jdstrandthis is a very poor user experience and a bad position to be in18:41
mdeslaurso basically, it's either security, or no lost passwords?18:42
* mdeslaur votes for security18:42
jdstrandmdeslaur: well yes. the thing is we thought it would be fixed by now18:42
micahg_is there a possibility of sending out a USN just for this one instance?18:42
jdstrandit is to the point where we need to get the update out though18:42
jdstrandmicahg_: we could, but I'd rather not. it wouldn't reach all the users anyway18:43
jdstrandI was thinking maybe a NEWS file18:43
jdstrandthat is a big hammer though18:43
micahg_yeah, we could do that, but how many people read those?18:43
jdstrandkees, mdeslaur, sbeattie: ^ opinions?18:43
jdstrandmicahg_: the NEWS file will pop up on every upgrade. I don't think update-manager can suppress those18:43
keeshmmm18:44
mdeslaurI think we should just push out the update. People who are using upstream's package will have gotten the new update anyway, and this is exactly the type of problem we expected when we started doing full version updates18:44
jdstrandI think that it is also very important to note this situation if chromium is ever considered for main18:44
keesyeah, agreed on both counts.18:45
keesI don't think NEWS file is needed.18:45
jdstrandmdeslaur: I agree we should push the update. I am just trying to improve on the poor upstream user experience18:45
keesjdstrand: I think that's unforutnately in the upstream's hands :(18:46
mdeslaurjdstrand: unfortunately, this is the way upstream wants us to handle it18:46
jdstrandI don't think upstream said anything about the NEWS file. not being daft, but we are packaging something that is separate from their official chrome18:47
jdstrandas such, I think there is a responsibility to try to help the users. the NEWS file may not be that18:47
mdeslauroh, I wasn't talking about the NEWS file18:47
jdstrandmdeslaur: sorry, I read kees' comment first, then yours, so misinterpreted18:48
jdstrandkees: can you elaborate on your NEWS file opinion?18:48
keesjdstrand: it's not a strongly held opinion. :) I just think it's a bit of overkill18:48
keesjdstrand: but perhaps it is the best way to communicate the change18:49
* mdeslaur thinks about 2 people will read the NEWS file18:49
sbeattieis the "reboot required" notification generalizable?18:49
jdstrandkees: I agree it is a huge hammer, but I'm not sure what else to do18:49
jdstrandI thought the NEWS file showed up on all upgrades...18:50
* jdstrand could be wrong18:50
keesI don't think update-manager shows them, but I could be wrong. I haven't tested that in a long while18:50
jdstrandI specifically remember that we actively chose not to use a NEWS file in the openssl issue from a couple of years ago18:50
jdstrandwell, if it doesn't display in update-manager, then it doesn't matter18:51
jdstrandthe changelog should be heavily commented then18:51
jdstrandmicahg_: can you and fta coordinate that and the practicality of a NEWS file?18:52
micahg_jdstrand: yes18:52
jdstrandmicahg_: thanks18:52
jdstrandmicahg_: what is going on with wekit?18:53
micahg_jdstrand: back burner still, will try to get out the update before EOM, but it'll be tight18:54
jdstrandmicahg_: please make it your highest priority-- ahead of qrt. feel free to coordinate the chromium work though18:55
jdstrandmicahg_: the rest of the team can do the qrt stuff18:55
micahg_jdstrand: ok, there are also another round of mozilla updates for next tuesday, should it go ahead of that?18:55
jdstrandmeh18:56
micahg_jdstrand: heh, nm, that was just pushed back a week :)18:56
jdstrandmicahg_: please get them building like chrisccoulson would do, so that if they don't have changes we don't have to wait on the builds and do last minute testing18:56
jdstrandmicahg_: sounds like you have your work cut out for you (again :)18:57
jdstrandmicahg_: anything else for this week?18:57
micahg_jdstrand: ok, will do later this week (builds won't be created until Wed)18:57
micahg_jdstrand: I think that's enough for me :)18:58
jdstrandmicahg_: thanks!18:58
jdstrand[TOPIC] Miscellaneous and Questions18:58
MootBotNew Topic:  Miscellaneous and Questions18:58
jdstrandlooks like the hardy desktop EOL announcement went out today and the EOL is may 12th18:59
jdstrandthat is not optimal, but I discussed with the release team and we will be in on the conversations for EOL delays going forward18:59
jdstrandperformance reviews are entered into the system for everyone, but there is more I need to do this week19:00
ScottK"Dapper needs another year of support.  Kthnxbye."19:00
ScottK;-)19:00
jdstrandheh19:00
jdstrandthat is not funny :)19:01
jdstrandwe need to be thinking about UDS topics19:01
jdstrandif people can make an individual list of things to move forward, things to revisit and new stuff to work on, that would be great19:01
jdstrandwe can discuss those in the next week or so as a team and get bps, going, etc, etc19:02
micahg_jdstrand: where are we consolidating those ideas?19:02
jdstrandmicahg_: no where yet-- just make a personal list for now, jotting down what you think of19:02
micahg_k19:03
jdstrands/no where/nowhere/19:03
jdstrandso, this might be a UDS topic (as apparmor upstream), but at this point, what can we do to get apparmor kernel and userspace tools into Debian?19:03
ScottKGet kees to upload them?19:04
jdstrandprofiles aren't as big of a deal, but it would be nice if people could apt-get it19:04
jjohansenugh, good question19:04
jdstrandScottK: I think there is kernel coordination involved there19:04
jdstrandjjohansen: is it possible to just have Debian enable apparmor without the compat patches with our current tools?19:04
jdstrandjjohansen: or even just apparmor_parser?19:05
* jdstrand is less concerned about the profiles atm19:05
jjohansenjdstrand: yes19:05
jjohansenits just the tools that break19:05
jdstrandjjohansen: so profile generation by hand should work ok, correct?19:06
jjohansenyep19:07
jjohanseneven initscript load19:07
jjohansenjust to restart19:07
jdstrandmaybe our first step should be to get it enabled in the kernel, and then ship the initscript and the parser only19:08
jdstrand(and abstractions, and other stuff that isn't broken)19:08
jdstrandkees: ^ what do you think?19:08
jdstrandwell, we can revisit that later19:11
jjohansenjdstrand: I believe the kernel objection was that it could not be built as a module19:11
jdstrandthe last thing I have is the usn microsite19:11
jjohansenthis is pretty much impossible to change19:11
jdstrandthat is the case for any lsm, no?19:12
kees(sorry, distracted, reading)19:12
jjohansenjdstrand: yep19:12
jjohansenthough tomoyo has put work into making an additional stub layer to achieve it19:12
keesDebian refused to enable apparmor in their kernel19:13
keeseven without the compat patches19:13
keesso I didn't bother uploading apparmor userspace to Debian19:13
jjohansenright19:13
sbeattiekees: was there a specific objection?19:14
jdstrandthat seems a pretty ridiculous objection since there isn't upstream support for that and they have selinux in there19:15
keessbeattie: nope19:15
keesjdstrand: right. hard to refute a baseless objection19:15
jdstrandDebian has tomoyo userspace though...19:16
jdstrandis tomoyo not in their kernel either?19:16
keesI didn't see the benefit of putting the userspace tools into debian (and the overhead of coordination with ubuntu) if it's not in the debian kernel. correct, tomoyo isn't in the debian kernel either.19:16
* jdstrand shakes head19:17
keessbeattie: actually, the objection was "kernel image size", IIRC19:17
jdstrandinsanity19:17
keesjdstrand: if there's a reason to put it in Debian, sure, I'll go upload it right now. :P19:17
jdstrandkees: we should probably at least document our efforts and their refute19:17
jdstrandkees: I'm not sure the best place for that19:17
ScottKHow long ago was the rejection?19:18
keesjdstrand: where would you like me to link to the mailing list posts?19:18
ScottKIIRC kernel coordination with Debian is better now that a couple of years ago.19:18
keesScottK: 3 months? they refused it during the most recent kernel team face-to-face meeting (in france?)19:18
jdstrandkees: well, that's the thing isn't it? I'm not sure19:18
ScottKOh.  OK.19:18
keesScottK: yeah, I was pretty disappointed.19:18
jdstrandkees: I guess the apparmor wiki19:18
keesjdstrand: okay19:18
ScottKI can imagine.19:18
keesseemed like such a no-brainer. oh well19:19
jdstrandas upstream, we should at least make it easy for people to get the tools if the recompile with apparmor... but that doesn't have to be discussed here19:19
jdstrandok, moving on...19:20
jdstrandthe last thing I have is the usn microsite19:21
jdstranda staging site is up now19:22
keesoooh19:22
sbeattieyay!19:22
* jdstrand is getting the url19:23
jdstrandhttp://staging.www.ubuntu.com/usn/19:24
MootBotLINK received:  http://staging.www.ubuntu.com/usn/19:24
jdstrandif people can look at that ^ and compare with http://people.canonical.com/~jamie/new-usns/usn-1050.html, that would be great19:24
jdstrandI have three things so far:19:24
jdstrand1. References has a trainling period19:24
jdstrand2. dashes outside of the text looks kinda weird19:25
jdstrand3. need to update isummary for USNs that still have default text (that's on our team)19:25
jdstrandfor now, feel free to look around, etc. the api should be available to actually add and edit usns, but I haven't played with it yet19:26
jdstrandI will be doing that this week and updating our wiki19:26
kees2) this has _got_ to get fixed. it makes the wiki unreadable too.19:26
keesjdstrand: this is being populated directly from the pickle?19:26
jdstrandkees: yes19:27
keesjdstrand: zomg, that _ROCKS_19:27
micahg_so no more staging to sync?19:27
jdstrandkees: we will update the pickle file like we normally would, then hit a special url and the microsite gets updated automagically19:27
mdeslaurjdstrand: if they are html...why are we using dashed instead of a proper html list?19:27
micahg_\o/19:27
jdstrandmicahg_: once this is live, correct19:27
jdstrandmdeslaur: I didn't write it-- it might be a django thing19:28
keesjdstrand: I'd like to see the title actually used correctly. Right now each usn is named "Ubuntu security notices".19:28
ScottKYou aren't going to email them out in html are you?19:28
keesi.e. http://staging.www.ubuntu.com/usn/usn-1106-1/ should be titled "Nss vulnerabilities" in <title> and at the top of the page (instead of in tiny font under the date)19:28
keesScottK: nooo no no19:28
sbeattieScottK: only for your adress.19:29
mdeslaurjdstrand: oh, ok...you are using <dd>...that's ok...I thought you were doing dashes19:29
keeslol @ sbeattie19:29
jdstrandScottK: no, but the plaintext formatting will mimic the site19:29
jdstrandkees: good point19:30
* ScottK relaxes.19:31
jdstrandkees: interestingly, the diverges from what we agreed on in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SecurityTeam/Specifications/USNSpec19:32
jdstrandkees: however, that page uses a plain text formatting, so it isn't obviously a problem there19:32
keesjdstrand: that doesn't mention title at all19:33
keesjdstrand: but compare to http://www.ubuntu.com/usn/usn-610-119:33
jdstrandkees: not <title>, no, but it the 1st and 2nd lines19:33
jdstrandkees: ack. will fix <title>, I also think the teeny text is wrong in the actual usn19:34
keesjdstrand: oh, I don't mind it being repeated there. I just want it in <h1> and <title> instead of the rather useless "Ubuntu security notices" there19:34
* jdstrand nods19:35
jdstrandwill get that fixed19:35
keeswhat's the plan for dealing with Summary and Software description?19:35
jdstrandbasically me going through them19:35
keesheh, owchy19:36
jdstrandI'm not sure what else can be done19:36
* jdstrand tried to tell people to adjust those all along ;)19:36
keeswell, if people used the standard template, you could just drop those entries19:36
jdstrandI didn't actually 'tell', I encouraged... I guess I'll pay for that now19:36
jdstrandkees: true. that might be the wa to go19:37
jdstrandalright. I think the meeting has gone on long enough19:38
sbeattiejdstrand: surely we can split up the effort?19:38
jdstrandplease talk to me out of this meeting on improvements to the site19:38
sbeattieor yeah, dropping's not the worst thing, either.19:38
keesI think dropping the "bad" entries is the way to go. Going forward, it should be treated as required.19:39
jdstrandsbeattie: we can discuss. I think dropping is probably fine.19:39
jdstrandhmmm19:39
keesadditionally, we may want to start creating a "database" of our software descriptions.19:39
jdstrandthere are some issues with older USNs19:40
keesjdstrand: why? it just seems to leave out the missing sections19:40
jdstrandeg http://staging.www.ubuntu.com/usn/usn-372-1/19:40
jdstrandSoftware description is empty19:40
jdstrandthere are no package versions19:40
keesthat's a bug in the parser then19:40
jdstrandno package info19:41
jdstrandprobably19:41
* jdstrand didn't write that either19:41
* jdstrand didn't write any of it tbh :)19:41
jdstrandanyhoo19:41
jdstrandfeel free to review19:41
jdstranddoes anyone have any other questions?19:41
keeswhere are the bugs tracked for it?19:41
jdstrandkees: write now nowhere, I am talking directly with them. can just give to me for the next few days19:43
jdstrandjeez19:43
jdstrands/write/right/19:43
jdstrand(what kind of a typo was that?!?19:43
micahg_a homophonic one?19:43
jdstrandit was lame, that is all I know19:44
jdstrand#endmeeting19:44
MootBotMeeting finished at 13:44.19:44
