mhall119doctormon: I'm pretty sure launchpadlib was designed by the devil himself01:09
mhall119or maybe he just made lazr.restful01:09
mhall119either way you have to sell your soul to use it01:09
nigelbdoctormon: Its maintained by Launchpad Team.01:18
bkerensaI can no longer say 12.04 is stable :P01:21
mhall119balloons: any idea why I don't have "unity testing" tool in my dash?01:42
mhall119I have System Testing01:43
mhall119is that the same thing?01:43
bkerensaI didnt have Unity Testing tool either01:43
mhall119bkerensa: are you on Unity 5.2?01:53
* cjohnston is debating upgrading the lappy to precise01:58
mhall119cjohnston: I've been running it for a week01:59
bkerensamhall119: When I had the PPA yes01:59
mhall119other than a PPA conflict between HUD testing and Unity 5.2 testing, I haven't had any problems01:59
cjohnstoni have been on the desk01:59
bkerensaI have been using precise for a few weeks prior to Alpha 1 and have had minimal issues01:59
mhall119bkerensa: did you have the HUD ppa too?01:59
bkerensamhall119: Yes02:00
mhall119that bit me pretty bad, yeah02:00
mhall119you have to ppa-purge the HUD ppa *before* installing the unity staging ppa02:00
mhall119otherwise everything goes wrong02:00
bkerensaah02:08
doctormonmhall119: wonderful news, I can search for people on launchpad through a lens too.02:36
mhall119doctormon: nice!02:36
mhall119where's the code?02:36
doctormonmhall119: The lens code is out of branch, but lp:groundcontrol has a command line tool you can play with02:39
doctormonI'm working out this damn lens interface, I want it to run internally like all the other apis.02:40
doctormonSo hold onto your hat because I know you're interested in seeing the lens rather than just the dbus.02:40
mhall119doctormon: I'm making a list of lenses, so I kind of want that code02:43
doctormonYeah don't list it until it's there.02:43
mhall119if I list it, does that mean you have to hurry up and publish it?02:45
doctormonmhall119: That is an interesting question isn't it ;-)02:49
doctormonmhall119: Are you still here?03:24
mhall119depends, is your branch ready?03:24
doctormonmhall119: I'm wondering why your run_lens code is registering a bunch of dbus names. Quite complex stuff.03:28
doctormonI need to duplicate it since I won't be running from the command line but internally.03:28
doctormonBut the Unity.Lens docs don't seem to mention this part.03:29
mhall119doctormon: you're running the lens code inside of groundcontrol?03:37
mhall119lenses operate over dbus03:37
mhall119it's how they communicate with the dash, and with scopes03:37
doctormonmhall119: Yes and yes03:53
doctormonMy dbus objects look very different and the Unity.Lens documentation seems to suggest it takes care of registering the addresses.03:53
doctormonI think I'm going to try cutting out singlet and trying to use the Unity.Lens module directly.03:55
mhall119yeah, singlet is made to run stand-along processes, not sure how Lenses should work within another program04:02
koolhead17mhall119: ping05:17
nigelbHe's probably asleep by now.05:25
bkerensadoes anyone know what kwaimuk.canonical.com, mulberry.canonical.com, humboldt.canonical.com are? I noticed that my Ubuntu install is calling home to those hosts a lot even with Statistics Submission and U1 Sync disabled...06:53

dholbachI got your mail, didn't have time yet to check into it13:23
dholbachtoday is a bit crazy13:23
dholbachare you sure you don't want to get access to the parts of cranberry yourself? :)13:23
mhall119that means more work for me though13:23
nigelb23013:24
nigelbargh13:24
dholbachgotcha, I'll do it then13:24
nigelbdholbach: I vote you get mhall119 root on that machine... ;)13:24
mhall119dholbach: what all would I need access to?13:27
dholbachhuats, can we move our call to maybe tomorrow or Friday?13:28
huatsdholbach, sure13:28
dholbachmhall119, I guess you just need to be added to qa-team13:28
huatsdholbach, Friday same time ?13:29
dholbachhuats, I know that the wiki clean up is still ongoing and we need to do the announce, but apart from that things are looking good13:29
dholbachhuats, sounds good to me - maybe just 10-15m to go through the trello board together and decide how we want to use it13:29
dholbachthanks a lot huats, I'm in a bit of hurry today :)13:29
huatsdholbach, I would like to have some info on your syntax on trello :)13:29
huatsso do I13:29
huats:)13:29
huatsthanks to you13:29
dholbachhehe, great :)13:29
dholbachde rien, mon ami13:29
huatsdholbach, regarding the wiki cleanup13:45
huatsI am wondering what to do with old meetings logs...13:45
dholbachmaybe just write a small wiki page saying:13:46
dholbach"""This content is obsolete.13:46
dholbachThe Mentoring programme was shut down.13:46
dholbachHere's what we do nowadays: <link to d-a-t>."""13:46
dholbachand include that on the pages13:46
dholbachor just remove the pages altogether13:46
mhall119dholbach: unity-stats appears to be a symlink to a directory in /home/dholbach/...13:49
dholbachI can move it somewhere else if you like - hang on13:50
dholbachok, let me update the code now13:52
dholbachwe can still look for another place13:52
dholbachmhall119, there's conflicts in the code?13:53
dholbachlike in your merge proposal13:53

huatsI am glad you made some words on it13:54
huatsthnaks13:54

Davieyjcastro: Sort of..15:42
czajkowskiis it going up in the air :)15:42

jcastroI haven't gone through them all and figured out which one is best17:41
mhall119jcastro: hey17:42
jcastrocan you fill me in on what I missed with the hangout?17:43
jcastroaka. what did I get voluntold to do for global jam? :)17:43
mhall119lol17:43
mhall119what would ever make you think we'd do something like that?17:43
jcastroI would be disappointed otherwise. :)17:44
balloonsjcastro, mostly just 80's hair band references.. and jono's lack of hair and voice to sing in said bands17:45
jcastrosinging is a stretch17:47
jcastroI call it "screaming in key"17:47
jonoharsh17:50
jonobut fair.17:50
mhall119jcastro: mostly we were discussing ways of fostering a community of appreciation17:52
mhall119and recognition17:52
jcastroIt's not meant be harsh, that's just the style of the music17:52
jcastrothat is awesome17:52
jcastroI don't want to be sung to, I want to be rocked. \m/17:53
jcastroIf I want to be sung to I'll watch OPERA.17:53
jcastromhall119: ah excellent17:53
mhall119I want to not bleed out of my ears17:53
jcastrohey I added some accomplishment guidelines to the spec17:53
jcastrohttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/Accomplishments/Trophies17:53
mhall119jono: you should make a self-referential trophy17:54
mhall119"Got a Trophy"17:54
jonomhall119, LOL17:54
jonothat would be easy17:54
mhall119or "Wrote an Accomplishments script", then award it to yourself as soon as you're done17:55
jcastroThat would be awesome17:55
jcastro"Trophy Crafter"17:55
jonothanks jcastro17:55
jonoI made some big improvements on it this week17:55
jonoI only have the U1 component to add and then the system should be working17:55
jcastrowe could call it "Sauron". :)17:55
jonobut I know how to do that17:55
jonothe U1 bit is called the matrix :-)17:56
jcastroI tried to keep the guidelines lose but strict.17:56
jonobut I need more accomplishments files17:56
balloonsblue pill please17:56
jcastroit'd suck if people made dump trophies just to earn them17:56
jonojcastro, yeah, and we can fill those out more as we go forward17:56
* jcastro nods17:56
jonojcastro, exactly, this is why this is called "accomplishments" instead of "achievements"17:56
jcastroI am hoping people get clever and humorous with it.17:56
popeyi managed to file four bugs and get sequential bug numbers, I deserve an achievement :D17:56
jonoI think so17:56
jonopopey, LOL17:57
jcastroYou know someone will make "SABDFLed" -- where Mark closes one of your bugs as opinion.17:57
jcastrothat would be brilliant17:57
mhall119we need a "Shut it Down!" achievement,  just for popey17:57
jcastro"shut down more than 3 community resources."17:58
mhall119lol17:58
popey17:58
jcastrotying into work items would be great too17:58
jcastromaybe a slightly embarrrassing trophy for people who never finish them would help us out. mwahaha.17:59
jonowell the accomplishments scripts support multiple languages and now different types of auth data18:00
jonoso it is pretty flexible18:00
jonowhen I finish the core system, I will document all of this18:00

jonoanyone wanna see it?18:00
mhall119too bad we can't record yet18:01
jcastroI'd like to but I can drop out if it'll give someone else a chance to join in18:01

balloonsmhall119, when you had your compiz crash while testing unity -- where you able to manually report it and/or get a system log?19:37
balloonsI know the apport tool likely yelled at you as running from a ppa, but I was wondering if you had the option to collect the info manually19:37
balloonsperhaps by doing ubuntu-bug compiz?19:37
balloonsit appears like that would work.. :-)19:39
balloonsalso mhall119, did you ever find unity testing app?19:51
mhall119balloons: nope19:56
jonomy Ubuntu video Q+A is in a few mins at http://www.ustream.tv/channel/at-home-with-jono-bacon19:56
mhall119balloons: I assume it's in unity-team/ppa, but not unity-team/staging19:56
mhall119balloons: I didn't try manually reporting19:56
jcastrojono: I'll listen in!19:56
mhall119I wasn't sure if it would gather anythign useful after compiz has reloaded19:57
* benonsoftware wishes he could listen in :(19:57
balloonsmhall119, ahh.. yes the staging ppa19:57
balloonsit's not in there19:57
mhall119jono: in order to check if a branch owner is canonical or not, I'm going to need to build authentication into daniel's stats collecting code19:57
balloonsok.. on the compiz thing, looks like manually running ubuntu-bug will work19:58
jcastrohah19:58
mhall119balloons: but what will that collect?19:58
balloonsi can do it now.. I'm assuming I can do it in case of a crash19:58
jcastro"oh look I accidentally left that flying V on the couch."19:58
balloonsif I did it right after a crash it should get the remnants of it.. perhaps not19:58
mhall119if compiz crashed, then successfully reloaded, and then I can ubuntu-bug, I assume it would see a happily running compiz19:58
jcastro"sorry I didn't mean to look like a rock star."19:59
balloonsyes.. don't reload :-)19:59
balloonsleave it crashed and go to tty119:59
mhall119it reloads by itself19:59
balloonsi thought you had the option?19:59
balloonsat the least when it occurs you could go to tty1 and leave the msgbox hanging there right?19:59
balloonsnot-intuitive to say the least20:00
mhall119I just saw the unity bits flicker, disappear, then reappear20:00
balloonsahh.. you never got a compiz crashed box?20:01
mhall119balloons: after compiz came back up I got the apport dialog20:03
