The wiki page for the Review Board is available here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Membership/RegionalBoards/Americas [00:02] 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. [00:03] The format for the meeting is as follows: We will go through the list of applicants one by one, by date of application (FIFO). [00:03] 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. [00:03] 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. [00:03] 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!) [00:04] #voters cyphermox Pendulum pleia2 beuno n0rman greg-g dinda1 [00:04] Warning: Nick not in channel: greg-g [00:04] Current voters: Pendulum beuno cyphermox dinda1 greg-g n0rman pleia2 [00:04] Now, with any further ado, lets get started with the first applicant... [00:05] I think we'll actually skip tenach until he shows up ;) [00:05] #subtopic Membership application for Joe Liau (JoeVancouver) [00:06] Hello, I am here. The link to my wiki is here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/JoeLiau [00:06] #link https://wiki.ubuntu.com/JoeLiau [00:07] * pleia2 thinks JoeVancouver looks suspiciously like a jawa [00:07] :) I'm Joe Liau, the "Master Presenter" for Ubuntu Vancouver LoCo (UVLC).

The video is out of date :P [00:11] JoeVancouver: what inspired you to join your LoCo? [00:12] I am naturally drawn to communities, and I enjoy helping others. When I joined the LoCo it was really starting to emerge and grow, and I wanted to part of that action. [00:12] cool [00:13] I think all the board members are ready to vote, so...

My name is Jim Fisher, jedijf on irc. I sell bread. I am a geek. [00:15] I am 47 years old, and stay young by promoting Ubuntu wherever and [00:15] as often as I can. I like to be challenged, and am always looking [00:15] for projects that Ubuntu can be a part of. I like coffee, espresso, [00:15] and redbull. [00:15] a jawa and now a jedi [00:15] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Jedijf [00:15] and we have our own Princess Leia :D [00:16] star wars theme here at the americas board meeting tonight :) [00:16] ++ [00:16] jedijf: you sell bread. do you take orders for bread in the ubuntu logo? ;D [00:16] i have and do! [00:17] pleia2: can prolly find it faster than i [00:17] I'd like to mention the following. I organize and execute a number of events annually in the Philly area with a foss orientation. jedijf has been instrumental to fosscon, a foss conference we held here this summer, as well as multiple of our geeknic picnics (he has very graciously provided baked goods to these events, as well.) [00:17] I just followed the links to the NTR project - very nice [00:17] I consider him a pillar of the Philadelphia FOSS community. [00:18] great! [00:18] dinda1: i plan on restarting that [00:18] my finding fu fails me, but ubuntu bread did exist [00:18] it took ntr a bit to come around to the concepts we were showing them [00:19] pleia2: that'll be my first planet blog [00:19] :) [00:19] for the record, jedijf was instrumental in getting *me* more involved in my first loco :) [00:19] jedijf: I see the last event in your page was about a year ago, I suspect that it's just an oversight, since fosscon was mentioned now? [00:19] so he's to blame for all of this [00:19] pleia2: oh [00:19] Fosscon was in July. [00:19] JonathanD: thanks. That's what I suspected :) [00:19] cyphermox: i stopped branding my events as loco events, but now that i am team contact there will be more LoCo follow thru [00:20] i am kinda baranded the ubuntu guy throughout all of my affiliations [00:20] branded [00:20] :) [00:21] you've got some great endorsements [00:21] okay, we're convinced it's voting time :) [00:21] i've got great people around me [00:21] and some who only come back to visit [00:21] #vote Jim Fisher (jedijf) to obtain Ubuntu Membership [00:21] Please vote on: Jim Fisher (jedijf) to obtain Ubuntu Membership [00:21] Public votes can be registered by saying +1, +0 or -1 in channel, (private votes don't work yet, but when they do it will be by messaging the channel followed by +1/-1/+0 to me) [00:21] +1 [00:21] +1 received from cyphermox [00:21] +1 [00:21] +1 received from dinda1 [00:21] +1 [00:21] +1 received from Pendulum [00:21] +1 [00:21] +1 [00:21] +1 received from pleia2 [00:22] nullcore: thanks for showing your support :) [00:22] #endvote [00:22] Voting ended on: Jim Fisher (jedijf) to obtain Ubuntu Membership [00:22] Votes for:4 Votes against:0 Abstentions:0 [00:22] Motion carried [00:22] =) [00:22] woohoo, congrats jedijf!

My name is José Antonio Rey. I am 14 years old, and I am located in Peru. My wiki link is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/JoseeAntonioR [00:35] Sorry, but I have testimonials in Spanish. [00:35] no problem, google translate helps :) [00:35] it's fine for me, good practice :) [00:36] :) [00:36] JoseeAntonioR: does your school use Ubuntu yet? [00:36] Not actually. With Diopj4, we've been trying to introduce it. [00:36] The principal did not paid much attention to the project. [00:37] He said he was focusing on another thing, but we're trying again in 2 weeks (: [00:37] Diopj4 is here, in case you need his testimonial. [00:38] hello Diopj4 :) [00:38] JoseeAntonioR: I know how difficult it can be here in the US to get Ubuntu in to schools, it's great to see people making the effort elsewhere too [00:38] hello (: [00:38] I'm in his school too [00:39] wow, great [00:39] pleia2 Actually, I'm trying to expand the use of Ubuntu in all Peru. [00:39] Peru has llamas :) [00:39] pleia2 I would like to see a change in the next 2 or 3 years, as there are many options apart from Windows. [00:40] pleia2 Right!

[00:41] pleia2 But I have done a lot of investigation as I had some problems, and I have learnt a lot. [00:41] JoseeAntonioR: are there any organized meetings or events around Ubuntu in your area? [00:41] dinda1 The Peruvian LoCo team is not too active, so there aren't many. [00:41] dinda1 We're having a conference soon, but Ubuntu is not the main topic. [00:41] can you give us any suggestion how we might help support your effots? [00:42] dinda1 I think just having more material on the web would be great.

The remaining work items should all be either bugs or items not tied to the release schedule. [15:13] Thanks to the desktop team for fixing up the lightdm bugs I mentioned last week. :) Looking at the list of oneiric bugs, there aren't any others worth highlighting. [15:13] ..

Burndown for the cycle is at the third link: [15:15] [LINK] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeam/ReleaseStatus/Oneiric [15:15] [LINK] http://people.canonical.com/~platform/workitems/oneiric/canonical-kernel-team-ubuntu-11.10-beta-2.html [15:15] [LINK] http://status.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-oneiric/group/topic-oneiric-kernel-tasks.html [15:15] We uploaded linux-3.0.0-11.18 prior to Kernel Freeze. Going forward, any patches we apply are subject to our SRU policy. I suspect we'll have a few upstream stable updates and misc bug fixes we'll be pulling in prior to release. We are currently trending above our Beta-2 burndown chart but are below overall. The remaining work items are not release critical. [15:15] Of the remaining bugs called out on the agenda against the kernel, status is as follows: [15:15] #542660 - Looks to be related to EFI boot not loading the video bios into ram.

[15:17] [TOPIC] Foundations team update - cjwatson === meetingology changed the topic of #ubuntu-meeting to: Foundations team update - cjwatson [15:18] Feature status: unlikely to see much further progress for Oneiric, although not all the work items are officially postponed yet. [15:18] multiarch-translations has landed in LP; there'll be one further tweak here but that's essentially done. [15:18] NBS was briefly clear earlier today! Excellent progress on build failures. We should be in good shape for beta-2 in terms of archive consistency. [15:18] Bug status: drowning.

[15:36] - Landed LibreOffice 3.4.3. [15:36] - Lots of good bug fixes this week. [15:36] - Investigated main culprits for boot speed regressions: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopTeam/11.10/BootSpeedAnalysis; the biggest problem has a fix and is just waiting for an (unrelated) string freeze exception. The others are most probably P material. [15:36] - Cleaned up remaining work items; most of the remaining issues are now about testing, documenting, and planning for the next release, and there are a few small targets of opportunity left. Code/distro wise this is pretty much done now. [15:37] pitti, seb128, and kenvandine are on vacation today. They'll be back on monday though. [15:37] ..

[15:41] [TOPIC] Kubuntu Team update - ScottK === meetingology changed the topic of #ubuntu-meeting to: Kubuntu Team update - ScottK [15:42] - I went through and updated the Kubuntu spec status. Most of what's left is not tied to the release cycle. If we can find a safe way to do it, we may still try to land plasma-mobile/active changes for an updated tech preview. [15:42] - The two Beta 2 milestoned bugs on your list are fixed. One of the other two lacks enough information to work on and the other is waiting for upstream. [15:42] - We have, unfortunately, have had to rebuild all KDE packages in Main to fix a desktop file translation issue. Most of these are uploaded and it shouldn't impact Beta 2. [15:42] - We could really use a core-dev to look at a couple of important patches for Qt and upload today. didrocks is already committed to compiz work and the Kubuntu team is very short on core-dev today.

[15:43] This week we finally got rid of sabayon, pessulus and nanny as these aren't working after the switch to gtk3/dconf/... [15:43] Also updated our slideshow accordingly (disabled some slides, no impact on translation). [15:44] Did a last minute edubuntu-live upload to get everything translated for beta2. [15:44] Other than that everything looks good for Edubuntu, looking forward to beta2. [15:44] .. [15:44] Questions? [15:44] Thanks stgraber! sounds good. :) [15:44] * skaet looks around for questions? [15:44] [TOPIC] Xubuntu Team update - charlie-tca === meetingology changed the topic of #ubuntu-meeting to: Xubuntu Team update - charlie-tca [15:44] Good morning [15:44] here are some serious issues that we are trying to get fixed. These are the most critical bugs we are looking at: [15:44] * #845549: Do not ship /etc/lightdm/lightdm-gtk-greeter.conf - blocks Xubuntu using our own theme; should be in-work by robert_ancell and pitti [15:45] * #847514: Convert Xubuntu CD to dh_python2 - inwork [15:45] cjwatson briefed this one already: [15:45] * #850172: Xubuntu Oneiric Alternate images fail to find abiword dependencies when building images - For reasons unknown, the server intermittently decides the files are missing. They have been verified as being in the right place, but the server is not accepting them. It is very erratic, and respins will sometimes work. [15:45] Any questions? [15:45] .. [15:45] Thanks charlie-tca! will keep an eye on those 3. [15:46] [TOPIC] Lubuntu Team update - gilir === meetingology changed the topic of #ubuntu-meeting to: Lubuntu Team update - gilir [15:46] Hi :) [15:46] Not much to report this week. [15:46] :) [15:46] We adjusted the artwork (login + slideshow) to be ready for the final release. [15:46] Still working on bugs triaging, in preparation for beta 2 testing. [15:47] It will be the focus for next week. [15:47] .. [15:47] Thanks gilir. Ok, let me know off line if there are any blockers after you finish your triaging. [15:47] charlie-tca: it might not be intermittent; all the failures were in a contiguous block, it wasn't that it came and went. So it could be fallout from the syncproxy.u.c replacement [15:47] (although I don't know how) [15:48] any questions for gilir? [15:48] but we had the same fails during beta1, and respins had to be done every spin [15:48] no, you had different failures [15:48] Oh, Okay [15:48] definitely not the same category of problem [15:48] (and we adjusted cron job timing to work around the concurrency problems that were triggering the previous failures) [15:50] [TOPIC] Toolchain update - slangasek === meetingology changed the topic of #ubuntu-meeting to: Toolchain update - slangasek [15:50] a buffer overflow was found this week in the patch for multiarch handling of compiler search paths [15:51] gcc-4.6 has been uploaded to fix this; there is no confirmed impact of this bug on our architectures (sheerly by luck), but better safe than sorry. The patch itself only changes the size of a string buffer, it has no impact on the code output [15:52] the other frontends / versions are in the process of being staged, and will be let into the archive as buildd time allows. None except gcc-4.6 have any impact on the CDs, and gcc-4.6 should be built for all archs well before the start of milestone mastering. [15:52] .. [15:53] Thanks slangasek. [15:53] gcc-4.4 has been uploaded too FWIW [15:53] o/ [15:53] ogasawara, ^ FYI. [15:53] go charlie-tca [15:53] skaet: thanks [15:53] My day to be wrong.

[15:54] Good; it would be getting rather late for it if it weren't :-) [15:54] well, I got one right, anyway [15:54] :) [15:55] any questions for slangasek? [15:55] [TOPIC] Archive Freeze status after Beta2. === meetingology changed the topic of #ubuntu-meeting to: Archive Freeze status after Beta2. [15:55] We have a week between beta 2 coming out and final freeze. [15:56] We didn't clarify earlier whether the archive would be unfrozen or not in that interval. [15:56] ScottK and infinity would like to keep it frozen. Does anyone on the release team disagree? [15:56] Last cycle we left it frozen and that seemed to work well. [15:57] I'm OK with it remaining frozen [15:57] it's more work but meh [15:57] what will the policy be for uploads? [15:57] uploads can happen, but release team members will need to assess and let them through. [15:57] Laney: For unseeded Universe it's push it through until Universe final freeze. [15:57] I agree with ScottK and infinity; having things unfrozen before the last beta milestone and final release is risky [15:58] For the rest, it's use your best judgement about risk versus benefit. [15:58] ok, sounds like we have concensus then. It will remain frozen. [16:00] I'll make it explicit via email to ubuntu-devel next week. [16:00] [TOPIC] Any other business? - all === meetingology changed the topic of #ubuntu-meeting to: Any other business? - all [16:00] * skaet looking around for hands... [16:00] not seeing any..
