| === ChanServ changed the topic of #ubuntu-classroom to: Welcome to the Ubuntu Classroom - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Classroom || Support in #ubuntu || Upcoming Schedule: http://is.gd/8rtIi || Questions in #ubuntu-classroom-chat || Current Session: Q and A with Francis Lacoste on Launchpad - Instructors: flacoste | ||
| ClassBot | Logs for this session will be available at http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2011/07/08/%23ubuntu-classroom.html following the conclusion of the session. | 16:30 |
| jono | alright! | 16:32 |
| jono | welcome everyone! | 16:32 |
| jono | today I am delighted to open up a really interesting Q+A session | 16:32 |
| jono | Launchpad has always been critical part of Ubuntu, and a wonderful place to build free software in general | 16:32 |
| jono | you can find it at http://www.launchpad.net | 16:33 |
| jono | I personally feel Launchpad has been the hidden gem in the Ubuntu world, so I am delighted to open up a Q+A about Launchpad today | 16:33 |
| jono | the man on the hot seat in the main man in charge of Launchpad, Francis Lacoste | 16:33 |
| * flacoste waves | 16:33 | |
| jono | Francis has a long history with Launchpad, and he is happy to answer all your questions! | 16:34 |
| flacoste | and is ready to answers all your questions | 16:34 |
| flacoste | :-) | 16:34 |
| jono | remember, to ask a question, join #ubuntu-classroom-chat and preprend your question with QUESTION | 16:34 |
| jono | for example: | 16:34 |
| jono | QUESTION: Why did you Open Source Launchpad? | 16:34 |
| jono | so, without further ago, get your questions in, and over to flacoste! | 16:34 |
| jono | :-) | 16:34 |
| flacoste | !q | 16:35 |
| ClassBot | Vahe asked: How can I made a derived of a package? Empathy for example | 16:35 |
| flacoste | i think the easiest way there | 16:36 |
| flacoste | would be to start from the Ubuntu source | 16:36 |
| flacoste | and make modifications and then upload to a PPA | 16:36 |
| flacoste | s/a/your/ PPA | 16:37 |
| flacoste | which will build the derived package for you and make it available for other users | 16:37 |
| flacoste | if you are comfortable with bzr, there are more complex workflows available where you work with a branch | 16:37 |
| flacoste | i'd suggest you read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DistributedDevelopment if that interests you | 16:38 |
| flacoste | Vahe: i hope this answers your question | 16:39 |
| ClassBot | Klau3 asked: Will Ubuntu participate the CERN Open Hardware initiative? http://goo.gl/F4cgJ goo.gl/ShlgT | 16:39 |
| flacoste | that's the first I heard of that initiative, so there are no current plans :-) | 16:40 |
| flacoste | I don't know how that relates to Launchpad itself | 16:40 |
| flacoste | but from a 5s look at it | 16:41 |
| flacoste | i'd say that Launchpad features can probably be used by people working on Open Hardware to collaborate | 16:41 |
| flacoste | using bugs, code and blueprints | 16:41 |
| === micahg_ is now known as micahg | ||
| flacoste | there might be additional features required for HW-specific stuff | 16:42 |
| flacoste | anyway, i'm welcome to follow-up on this question | 16:42 |
| ClassBot | jonobacon asked: are we likely to see any improvements to Blueprints in the future? | 16:42 |
| flacoste | ah! blueprints! | 16:43 |
| flacoste | i'm happy to say yes actually | 16:43 |
| flacoste | well, like you probably saw, the blueprints page was AJAX-ified recently | 16:43 |
| flacoste | saving a few clicks when you want to edit stuff | 16:43 |
| flacoste | on our queue, we have a request to develop some team views for bugs and blueprints | 16:44 |
| flacoste | that will allow you to see all blueprints assigned to a particular team (across all projects) | 16:44 |
| flacoste | in the grand scheme of things, our previous product manager was toying with the idea of merging bugs and blueprints | 16:45 |
| flacoste | by adding the missing blueprints features to bugs | 16:45 |
| flacoste | but there are no definitive plans there | 16:45 |
| ClassBot | chicken asked: Do you have a quick link to informational page with overview for those unfamilar. | 16:45 |
| flacoste | chicken isn't here anymore, so I'm assuming that it was a request for more info on the derived package question | 16:46 |
| flacoste | the overview link for PPA would be https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging | 16:47 |
| ClassBot | Gentoolx asked: About building on Launchpad. Is there possibility to use different source of packages than Ubuntu archive (I mean some PPA). This would allow to use modular source branches for my project. | 16:47 |
| flacoste | not sure if I understand the questions correctly... | 16:48 |
| flacoste | so Launchpad only builds package in .deb format | 16:48 |
| flacoste | we don't build gentoo or rpm source package | 16:48 |
| flacoste | but the source package doesn't have to be in Ubuntu | 16:48 |
| flacoste | a lot of PPA builds packages for software that isn't available yet in Ubuntu | 16:49 |
| flacoste | it's often a way to package new applications | 16:49 |
| flacoste | Gentoolx: let me know if i misunderstood the question | 16:49 |
| ClassBot | jonobacon asked: Do you think there will be any work item tracking tools build into Launchpad? storing work items on whiteboards seems sub-optimal at the moment | 16:50 |
| flacoste | this an often requested item! | 16:50 |
| flacoste | and we do see it as part of the project scope | 16:50 |
| flacoste | but it's not on the schedule yet | 16:51 |
| flacoste | but again the schedule is pretty short | 16:51 |
| flacoste | and it could get on it, if that's the highest priority for the Ubuntu community | 16:51 |
| flacoste | just talk to bryceh who is the Ubuntu community Launchpad stakeholder representative | 16:52 |
| flacoste | no more questions? | 16:52 |
| ClassBot | mhall119 asked: How about an integrated wiki for launchpad? | 16:53 |
| flacoste | that's among the 3 top-requested features for Launchpad! | 16:53 |
| === Alex__ is now known as Alexro | ||
| flacoste | i can't remember if it was #1 or #2 | 16:53 |
| flacoste | anyway, the two others are "better performance" and "git support" | 16:53 |
| flacoste | we do want wiki in Launchpad | 16:54 |
| flacoste | there is even a community -sponsored project to get it | 16:54 |
| flacoste | that started recently | 16:54 |
| flacoste | https://dev.launchpad.net/LEP/Wiki | 16:54 |
| flacoste | if you want to help out! | 16:54 |
| ClassBot | mhall119 asked: can you give a link to the community project? I'm interested | 16:54 |
| flacoste | that would be the above LEP which lists the requirements around the project | 16:55 |
| flacoste | if you are interested i suggest you subsribe to the development mailing list | 16:56 |
| flacoste | and contact xaav | 16:57 |
| flacoste | we have time for one more question! | 16:57 |
| ClassBot | Gentoolx asked: According to my previous one: I meant depending on packages from Ubuntu archive (as build-deps) and asked if it is possible to depend on packages from other source (again, as build-deps). | 16:59 |
| flacoste | ah, yes! | 16:59 |
| flacoste | i think it's possible | 16:59 |
| flacoste | visit your PPA details page | 16:59 |
| flacoste | and you should be able to set the build-deps there | 17:00 |
| flacoste | actually | 17:00 |
| flacoste | the link is called 'Edit PPA dependencies' | 17:00 |
| flacoste | and you can access it from the PPA page | 17:01 |
| flacoste | ok, i thought this session was 30 minutes and I have another appointement | 17:02 |
| flacoste | so I'll end this here, sorry, if I didn't get to answer your question | 17:02 |
| flacoste | but you are always welcome to ask me directly on IRC (flacoste) | 17:02 |
| flacoste | or email the launchpad-users mailing list | 17:02 |
| flacoste | we are a friendly bunch | 17:02 |
| flacoste | thanks! | 17:03 |
