lifelessidnar: you can setup dkim for app domains00:49
idnarlifeless: yeah, but I mean, it still has to be specifically whitelisted by Launchpad, right?00:50
lifelessidnar: or you can validate your app domain address as a separate 'send from' in gmail, and then it will be covered by the gmail dkim (because we trust gmails checking that you can receive mail at that address)00:50
idnarI have DKIM enabled for my apps domain, but it's just a one-user personal domain00:50
lifelessidnar: so there are two different things00:51
lifelessA) we support dkim.00:51
lifelessB) for some dkim sites we support a From: which is not from that site, if the site has still signed it.00:51
idnaroh, I see00:52
wgrantlifeless: But only signatures by gmail.com are trusted at the moment.00:52
idnarah, I'm not going crazy then :)00:53
lifelessnow, I'm not sure if for A we accept any site or just some, but the intent is to support any, or easily support many. For B yes, we do intend to have careful whitelisting proceedures (we need to validate that they only sign From addresses outside their site on a sensible basis)00:53
lifelessidnar: so if you want to be covered by A, its our *intent* to scale that quite a lot. For B, having your domain enabled for it is much less so :)00:53
idnarmy mail is From: mithrandi@mithrandi.net and signed with d=mithrandi.net, so I think A) should cover it00:54
lifelessright00:54
lifelesspoolie, who is not on, has been pushing this00:55
idnar(but currently it still won't work)00:55
lifelessI suggest filing a bug, and we can dig into whats up00:55
lifelessas wgrant says it may just be policy (so this is a good time for us to review how that works)00:55
lifelessthe blog post that refers to 'by request' is talking about B specifically.00:55
idnarthere's already https://answers.launchpad.net/launchpad/+question/14632700:55
idnarwhich references #64322400:56
lifelessrighto00:56
lifelessidnar: so, short term: file a merge proposal adding your domain :)00:57
lifelessidnar: long term, I'll nag poolie :)00:57
idnarI don't know where mail/incoming.py is :P01:01

Noldorini registered a project group on LP some time ago... it no longer exists. can anyone help me please?01:45
wgrantNoldorin: What was it called?01:53
Noldorinwgrant, sorry, i made a mistake and got the name wrong. someone had taken my desired name previously01:53
Noldorinout of curiosity, can we now create project groups ourselves?01:54
wgrantYou can't, no.01:54
Noldorinvia the website interface01:54
Noldorinwgrant, oh :( any reason for that?01:54
wgrantThey're somewhat deprecated.01:54
wgrantNoldorin: The project that previously occupied your desired name is gone?01:56
Noldorinwgrant, afraid not01:57
Noldorinwgrant, oh, deprecated in favour of what?01:57
wgrantAh01:57
wgrantThat's a very good question.01:57
wgrantNo replacement has been devised.01:58
Noldorini see.01:58
wgrantSo project groups continue to exist while being hated by all.01:58
Noldorinmay i ask why they were deprecated in that case?01:58
Noldorinevidently considered a design flaw of some sort...01:58
Noldorinstructure flaw, rather01:58
wgrantThey're not as useful as they could be. The suspicion is that being able to nest projects would improve things.01:59
wgrantGives you multiple levels, allows you to file bugs on the group.01:59
wgrantBoth things that have been desired.01:59
wgrantBut it's not clear how this would best be implemented.02:00
lifelessthe key thing is that project groups encode policy but most folk want to encode affiliation02:02
lifelesswe will make new groups on request when folk have had this explained and have made an informed choice02:02
wgrantYou say that encode policy, but I don't really think the current implementation knows what it intends to encode.02:03
wgrants/that/they/02:03
Noldorinwgrant, ah, so eventually you may just expand the project framework to have a new type of projects that are simply composed of other projects?02:03
Noldorinand can thus be nested indefinitely02:04
Noldorinand have all the benefits02:04
Noldorinof normal projects02:04
wgrantThat's one possibility.02:04
lifelesswgrant: not as a clear statement of intent no, but the design intent,a nd early implementation, and the beahviour of milestones and other things yes, they do02:05
Noldorinwgrant, i guess a major decision like that would go quite a way up to the top though02:09
Noldorinand probably won't be made short term02:09
lifelesswe definitely want to eliminate project groups. whether they are replaced with one thing or many, and what that/they is/are is unknown yet02:20
lifelessfor now, we only make them on request ;002:20
Noldorinwgrant, i'm glad to know Canonical and the LP team is at least being forward-thinking. :-) slow perhaps...but then there are lots ofthings on thetask list02:20
lifelessNoldorin: now, all that said, what one did you want made, and whats it for ? :)02:21
Noldorinlifeless, oh, i had one from some time ago :-)02:21
Noldorinlifeless, thought i'd named it something, but sometime took my name so i had a more obscure name which i couldn't find heh02:21
Noldorini can never seem to find the "list of all proejcts user X is involved in" on LP02:21
Noldorininvolved in/maintains02:21
lifelessits not in your 'related software' portlet on launchpad.net/~/02:26
lifeless?02:26
Noldorinlifeless, hmm?02:28
Noldorinlifeless, yeah. i never see that heh. could do with being on the main page insead/as well as "Latest memberships" really02:29

Laibschwhat is the latest status of "nominate for release" in launchpad?  Is there actually a workflow behing this now?  Back in the days it used to be mostly ignored.06:04
LaibschI'm interested in doing SRU work and wonder how I could easily see bugs that are fixed in #ubuntu+1 but affect an LTS.06:04

michaelh1Hi there.  Style question: I'm going to start a branch of crosstool-ng.  Should I set up a crosstool-ng project in Launchpad, set up a code import, then make my own project and branch off that?  If not, what should own the code import?21:17
lifelessmichaelh1: are you starting a branch of, or a fork of ?21:56
lifelessmichaelh1: if the former, you need just one project - crosstool-ng. If the latter, then having two projects makes sense.21:56
michaelh1A work area.  Most everything will go upstream, but we need somewhere for non-upstreamable stuff, tags, release noise, etc.  And somewhere to release from...21:57
lifelessI don't really know what work area implies ;)21:57
lifelessyou say you are doing releases of the tool ?21:57
lifelessnon-upstream releases ?21:57
michaelh1We'll use crosstool-ng to make binary builds of gcc-linaro.  I want others to be able to reproduce these, so I need to release the exact crosstool-ng and configuration that was used to make the binary21:59
michaelh1Think of crosstool-ng as a build script.21:59
lifelessits a grey area22:00
lifelessI think I'd start with a non-trunk *series* in the crosstool-ng project22:00
lifelesse.g. a series called trunk has the vcs import22:01
lifelessand a series called linaro has your releases of crosstool-ng22:01
michaelh1OK.  So launchpad.net/crosstool-ng doesn't exist yet.  I'll create it and set up the import into a series called 'trunk' and use that to seed the linaro series.22:02
michaelh1I feel a bit funny creating an import-only project for something I don't own...22:03
lifelessthere is a setting when you register the project22:03
lifelessuse it ;)22:03
lifeless("I do not want to maintain this project")22:03
michaelh1...and I should just ask the guy/inform him :)22:04
PhantomasHello everyone! If I delete a PPA from a team, will it be possible to rename the team?22:08
chrysnwgrant: thanks, that really works :-). any reason this is not yet documented in https://help.launchpad.net/VcsImports?23:24
wgrantchrysn: It's brand new and we hope to have a better UI for it soon.23:25
wgrantThen we'll announce/document it.23:25
chrysnanyway, cool feature, works for me. (although i didn't do much bzr-side testing, just viewing in launchpad -- probably the typical behavior of people who use git and then do some stuff in lp.)23:27
wgrantGreat!23:28
chrysnjust waiting for my first recipe based on it to finish (local testing failed because of something fixed on the build servers; i've merged/built it often enough to be optimistic about it building)23:29
