[14:34] <charlie-tca> Good morning
[14:36] <GridCube> :D good morning charlie-tca 
[14:36]  * GridCube is a hacker now 
[14:40] <charlie-tca> oh?
[14:41] <GridCube> :D i discovered the proxy settings for my university that doesnt block irc :D
[14:41] <charlie-tca> Great
[14:42] <GridCube> :)
[14:42] <GridCube> indeed
[14:43] <GridCube> so charlie-tca :) im working on the last version of XTC :D
[14:43] <GridCube> im having a few problems on the search results part
[14:43] <charlie-tca> mr_pouit: SURPRISE of the day! 
[14:44] <charlie-tca> mr_pouit: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2011-October/034275.html
[14:44] <GridCube> probably because im not very smart
[14:44] <charlie-tca> can we support a 5 year desktop?
[14:45] <mr_pouit> we don't even really support 18 months releases ;-)
[14:46] <charlie-tca> Well, discussions with "flavors" seems to have left me out of the loop
[14:47] <charlie-tca> Maybe we should discuss not supporting any release more than 18 months?
[15:01] <genii-around> Five year support will mean 3 concurrent LTS releases at times
[15:04] <charlie-tca> yes
[15:04] <charlie-tca> Well, we have that already for server. They want to extend the desktop support to 5 years for LTS

[16:47] <charlie-tca> mr_pouit: ^  ^  ^
[16:47] <madnick> This sounds like good news :)
[16:49] <GridCube> i think it sound like mixed news, by one side it means that users can stay whit a single interface for long time, something people actually like, like XP did for example, people just liked it, but from other point the new releases will be far too different 4 or 5 years later to people be confortable whit change
[16:50] <charlie-tca> madnick: we have problems trying to fix things that broke two years ago already in LTS releases, how will we keep it usable for 5 years?
[16:50] <charlie-tca> It also means three LTS releases supported at the same time, since we have a new one every two years
[16:51] <madnick> Well, it will be hard, but for users it sounds pretty good if its possible to coupe
[16:51] <charlie-tca> It sounds very close to impossible from the developer side, at least for us.
[16:51] <GridCube> :/ yes i can understand that
[16:52] <charlie-tca> lucid is an LTS release. It has Xfce 4.6 in it. We will be at Xfce 4.12 or 4.14 when it dies?
[17:33] <charlie-tca> Well, going enjoy my vacation now. I'll see everyone Sunday at the meeting! 2011-10-23 at 22:00 UTC
[17:34] <Unit193> Adios! Have a good one
