rbasakNothing to report from the server end afaik15:12
GrueMasterI think part of the problem is everything is now linked to topic-precise-release-lts.15:12
rbasakGrueMaster: AIUI, a server install on a panda continues to work?15:12
GrueMasterrbasak: I do them almost daily.15:13
GrueMaster(Not every load, but netinstall and some testing).15:13
rbasakand do they work? :)15:13
GrueMasterI am working to automate all the manual tests I ran last cycle.15:13

ogra_well, ftbfs ...15:16
ogra_someone needs to do the testbuild of libreoffice15:17
janimono progress here on my side, still have libo to tackle soon15:17
* NCommander runs through the nearest wall in horror15:17
ogra_i guess thats a good task for the sprint15:17
ogra_so we can spread the load a bit15:17
ogra_instead of having NCommander do it all alone as usual ;)15:17
janimoI still haven;t switched my panda to armhf but it is next step on the list15:17
* NCommander whimpers15:18
ogra_the LibO bug seems to have a patch that just hasnt been tested yet15:18
ogra_and will need a build15:18
GrueMasterjanimo: USB drive with two partitions.15:18
NCommanderI still haven't recovered from the last time I tangled with the beast15:18
janimoogra_, very likely, or needs some newish patch15:18
ogra_beyond that we should see that we get the above 200 universe ftbfs fixed15:18
janimoGrueMaster, yeah, I just wish we had a live installer to tell it to install to the usb disk :)15:18
* GrueMaster notes that he has a 5s lag to freenode.15:18
janimodoable otherwise just noot fun15:18
ogra_i have taken a look over the logs and many are changed in the gthread lib it seems15:19
GrueMasterjanimo: netinstall.15:19
ogra_should be easy to develop a general reciepe for these15:19
janimoGrueMaster, hmm will ask you more after the meeting then. Never did one of those, not even on x8615:19
GrueMasterkk15:19
ogra_janimo, do it at the sprint ;)15:19
ogra_surely easier to do face to face15:20
janimoyes, makes sense. Cause then I can also buy I bear :)15:20
ogra_yay, bears15:20
janimoone beer15:20
* ogra_ likes bears :)15:20
* GrueMaster doesn't dreak bear.15:20
NCommanderjanimo: I didn't know they sold bears in Romania15:20
ogra_they surely do ... more than anywhere else15:20

NCommander[topic] QA Status (GrueMaster, mahmoh)15:22
=== meetingology changed the topic of #ubuntu-meeting to: QA Status (GrueMaster, mahmoh)
ogra_oh, someone should tell kubuntu to drop LibO from their seeds15:22
NCommanderScottK: ^15:22
ogra_if they want images at some point ;)15:22
NCommanderogra_: done15:22
ogra_heh15:23
GrueMasterI am seeing some issues with the QRT lately that I am tracking down.15:23
GrueMasterSome of the tests (mainly the nx tests) are producing random results.  In 1000 executions, 150 fail.15:23
ogra_is that something we could help you with during the sprint ?15:24
NCommanderdo we actually support NX support on ARM?15:24
GrueMasterI am working with kees, but it may be a kernel thing.15:24
ogra_yeah, we might miss a patch or so15:24
GrueMasterI was told we do.15:24
ogra_iirc the NX patch was big and ugly15:24
ogra_and in several chunks15:25
NCommanderWe'll kidnap a kernel engineer and hold him hostiage in our room at the sprint15:25
ogra_yeah15:25
* ogra_ looks at ppisati 15:25
ogra_:)15:25
* NCommander wonders what we can get for ransom15:25
Riddellogra_: hmm?15:25
GrueMasterNot sure.  How much does pgraner value his crew?15:26
ogra_its not his crew atm, its tims15:26
NCommanderRegardless, I think its just a matter of beer15:26
janimoLet's put beertraps in our sprint room. Kernel team likes beer, they will be lured15:26
GrueMasterSo...not very much then.15:26
ogra_Riddell, your arm images fail regulary, you should temporary remove LibO from your seeds for the arm builds15:26
janimoeveryone please notice the clever pun above15:26
ogra_haha15:26
Riddellogra_: that's a known problem with libreoffice?15:27
NCommanderjanimo: if we put beer taps in our room, admittly, team moral will be very hihg15:27
NCommanderTeam productivity; not so much15:27
ogra_Riddell, it doesnt build on armhf atm15:27
ogra_NCommander, depends on what you want to produce15:27
ogra_;)15:27
janimobut if we reach ballmer peak we may get both15:27
NCommanderRiddell: you are suggesting that libreoffice doesn't have a problem15:27
NCommanderogra_: thanks, I needed to be squicked out this early in the morning15:27
janimothat statement is always false15:27
pgranerogra_, still my crew, tim is my henchman15:27
* NCommander needs brainbleach15:28
ogra_for producing reverse eaten lunch beer taps are great :)15:28
ogra_pgraner, oh, sorry15:28

czajkowskiYokoZar: how are we on the mailing list issues?17:05
YokoZarczajkowski: We've got a list of easy candidates to remove17:05
YokoZarLet me dig up the pad link...17:05
YokoZarSo there were about 20 or so that should be non-controversial closes17:07
Joeb454czajkowski: hello17:07
Joeb454sorry, still stuck at ork17:08
Joeb454work*17:08
czajkowskiYokoZar: so should we create a ticket to get them closed ?17:08
YokoZarhttp://paste.ubuntu.com/793936/17:08
czajkowskiJoeb454: great we'll get to you in a few if that's ok17:08
Joeb454no problem17:08
YokoZarYeah, everything in that list I think, except ubuntu-mozillateam17:08
czajkowskiok I'll get a ticket created for those lists17:08
sabdflhi folks, sorry to be tardy17:08
czajkowskiif everyone is ok with that17:09
YokoZarmicahg: any comment on the ubuntu-mozillateam list?17:09
beunoczajkowski, yeap, sounds like a good idea17:09
pleia2weren't we going to email the list owner before shutting them down?17:09
pleia2I know teams like -screencasts have sort of been struggling to stay alive over the years17:09
czajkowskipleia2: that was discussed but nobody say it was going to be done or not done, but seeing as many of the oweners are long gone does seem to drag the process out17:10
YokoZarczajkowski: in the ticket also mention that they should be marked as (closed) and moved to the bottom of the lists.ubuntu.com page17:10
czajkowskiYokoZar: nods17:10
pleia2"Once inactive lists are identified, the team owner and list admins will be notified, RT ticket submitted"17:10
pleia2^^ from our last meeting17:11
pleia2so I thought this would be a process, not just immediate shut down17:11
pleia2there isn't really a reason to rush things, email list admins, wait two weeks, email rt17:11
czajkowskiok does someone want to contact the admins of those teams17:11
YokoZarpleia2: That was before we realized that just about every item in the list hadn't had posts in over a year17:11
czajkowskisome 2007 and 200817:12
YokoZarpleia2: But I don't have any objections on principle or anything, if you can even figure out who to contact17:12
pleia2I can send emails to the people publically listed as admins on each list17:12
pleia2that would be "$foo list run by $bar" at the bottom of the info page17:13
YokoZarpersonally I'm inclined to close it even if they reply they want it open since we already have a ton of evidence it doesn't seem to be particularly useful17:13
czajkowskiGwaihir: beuno akgraner sabdfl thoughts ?17:14
akgranerThe kernel one I know can be closed - I asked Pete about it a week or so ago and he said close it17:14
pleia2restoring deleted mailman lists is not fun, I wouldn't want to put IS through that, particularly since I don't know why we're rushing anyway (these lists have been dead for a long time)17:14
pleia2just give me two weeks ;)17:14
sabdfl+1 on the two weeks17:15

Joeb454s.fox and bodhi.zazen have said they can't make it because of those reasons too17:19
czajkowskiso care to tell us about the FC and how things are going , I know I saw a request come in there before xmas from ye guys17:19
Joeb454as far as I can tell, things are going ok. I think all of us need to be a little more aware of what responsibilities we have etc, like the mailing list for example (there were 9 requests to do yesterday)17:20
Joeb454I appreciate the time of year probably hasn't helped with that though, but it's a discussion point I'll bring up with the rest of the FC at some point in the not-too-distant future17:21
Joeb454the upgrade process is ongoing (which is the request you probably saw). We're in touch with Canonical IS now, but there's the old issue of "who's responsible for what" which we're just trying to iron out now17:21
czajkowskiJoeb454: with regards to the ml moderation, I know personaly it can eat up time, have you thought about adding all of the council on as amdins to help with the load, so it doesnt build up17:22
Joeb454I think all the council are admins, they certainly used to be, but I'll double check that one though :)17:23
sabdflis the upgrade particularly difficult?17:24
czajkowskiIt may be one way to stop it falling on one person and just remind people to check it17:24
sabdfli believe there may be a blocking issue on OpenID, or does the newer version already support it?17:24
sabdfli thought we paid for that support to be added?17:24
Joeb454sabdfl: I don't know about that. The blocker is OpenID, but we need to find out how many people use it really to determine whether it's something we can break temporarily to get the upgrade done17:25
Joeb454I don't want to remove the functionality, but at the same time, the software is getting quite old now, I'm not sure they do security updates for our version anymore17:26
czajkowskiJoeb454: whats the rt ticket number ?17:26
Joeb454czajkowski: for the upgrade, or for openID?17:26
czajkowskimay as well take both and go talk to the nice folks in IS17:27
Joeb454I'm not sure what they are, I'll try and find them now, but if not I'll look later and send them to the CC17:27
sabdfli really don't want to regress17:27
sabdflafaiac we should use openid exclusively17:27
sabdflany ubuntu user on any site should have one and only one password across the whole lot17:28
sabdflthis is 2012 :-)17:28
czajkowskiJoeb454: ok thanks if you poke me I'll chase up on them and then follow up with the CC17:28
czajkowskisabdfl: +117:28
Joeb454sabdfl: agreed, I'd like to use the SSO as well17:28
sabdfli'd like to shut down old passwords and provide a mechanism for folk to activate openid17:28
sabdflok. all the mechanisms we use are open, why not call for help from the community to close that gap17:28
sabdfli'll get the upgrade done as a priority if that's done17:29
Joeb454I'm not sure how easy that is, there'd be a lot of legacy users that don't use openID, so we'd need to provide a way to get them migrated to the new system if they suddenly decide to login17:29
czajkowskiJoeb454: when you say a lot, how many is that roughly?17:29
czajkowskior is it possible to know ?17:30
beunoAFAIK, it was in the tens of thousands17:30
czajkowski:o17:30
Joeb454czajkowski: I haven't a clue. It might be possible to do a SQL query on the DB, but I don't have access to that. It'll be a fairly big number though17:30
Joeb454I've associated my account with SSO, but don't use it. The previous implementation didn't seem to like keeping people logged in17:30
czajkowskithat is a bit of a bug17:31
Joeb454yeah I think that was what stopped quite a few people using it17:31
Joeb454we'd also need to consider the people that are signed into SSO and then visit the forums, we'd need to prompt them to create a profile if they don't already have one17:31
Joeb454[17:28] < sabdfl> i'd like to shut down old passwords and provide a mechanism for folk to activate openid17:32
Joeb454[17:28] < sabdfl> ok. all the mechanisms we use are open, why not call for help from the17:32
czajkowskia lot of kinks need working out17:32
Joeb454                  community to close that gap17:32
Joeb454[17:29] < sabdfl> i'll get the upgrade done as a priority if that's done17:32
Joeb454oops, sorry17:32
Joeb454czajkowski: definitely17:32
czajkowskiJoeb454: and ask sabdfl has said, do you have community folks on the forums willing to help make this happen ?17:32
Joeb454I can put out a request for anybody to help get SSO implemented, but then how would we get them access to the test environment/vbulletin code etc.17:33
czajkowskiI'm sure we could get something worked out, given we get the loco team portal updated by folks17:35
czajkowskibut the hows and whens I'm unsure of17:36
czajkowskiJoeb454: any other comments regarding the FC, enough members ?17:37
Joeb454other than my initial comments, I don't have any issues. Some members are quieter than others, which is to be expected anyway17:38
czajkowskiJoeb454: do ye have regular meetings? does everyone take part?17:39
Joeb454we're trying to get into more regular meetings again, but the lack of agenda items makes them a little difficult to plan properly. We're making progress with it though17:40
czajkowskiJoeb454: yes i can understand the no agenda so no meeting, however getting into the habit of turning up and planning things is a good idea tbh.17:40
czajkowskishows activeity and in future makes getting folks onto a council easier by showing what ye do and when17:41
czajkowskijust a thought :)17:41
Joeb454definitely. As I said, we're making progress and getting back into it. I don't think we had meetings for a while (certainly before I joined the council anyway)17:41
czajkowskiok well thanks for keeping us up to date17:42
czajkowskiif we cna help in any other way please let us know.17:42
Joeb454as for taking part, I think I mentioned above, some more than others, but I have an email floating around in my head that will be making its way to the FC soon anyway (I've been guilty of not doing as much as I feel I should)17:42
Joeb454of course :)17:42
YokoZarThanks :)17:42
czajkowskiI've no more comments or questions17:42
czajkowskiI do appreciate learning about the FC and the work yer doing17:42

Joeb454czajkowski: I'll try and get more people next time, but 17:00 UTC isn't the best of times, what with the variety of EU/US timezones we have, they all fall wrong17:44
