[00:34] balloons: he was complimenting my interview with him [01:17] lol [01:26] when does UDS registration open? (the https://forms.canonical.com/udsreg/ says February 24th, so I'm starting to get emails asking me :)) [01:27] jono: ^^ [01:27] inquiring minds want to know [01:35] pleia2, I am not sure, will check with Marianna [01:38] the other question that ive seen is when will sponsorship responses be sent out [01:42] cjohnston: that's the Ubuntu community's version of "are we there yet?" [01:42] Pendulum: yup [01:52] jono is the man with the answers [01:53] cjohnston, they will be sent out when they are ready [01:53] :-) [01:53] patience... :-) [02:22] mhall119: The SUMO instance is failwhaling [02:22] ;) [02:33] bkerensa: it's debug-whaling [02:33] trying to figure out why it doesn't like my apache setup [02:34] mhall119: Make your setup more ninja like [02:34] mhall119: What language is SUMO and what kind of db? [02:34] bkerensa: you can test it running in just django at http://91.189.93.72:8000/ [02:35] bkerensa: python/django/mysql [02:36] mhall119: Why no PHP/MySQL? :D [02:36] bkerensa: since I don't have email configured, I'll have to activate your account after you register [02:36] bkerensa: because PHP make baby Jesus cry [02:36] PHP never do no such thing... PHP make baby jesus propser [02:36] prosper* [02:37] unless I do typos like that in my code and fail whale something :) [02:38] bkerensa: have you ever done any python/django? [02:38] mhall119: Not yet... I'm learning python now but progress is slow since I have very little time to read... Contributing to Ubuntu and all :P [02:39] bkerensa: trust me, after you make your first python/django site, you won't say nice things about PHP anymore either :) [02:39] heh [02:39] mhall119: Facebook uses PHP + HipHop [02:39] :dc [02:40] and I'm sure their devs curse it every day [02:41] django == really good stuffs [02:59] mhall119, cjohnston any guidance you can offer on how to determine the accomplishments on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Accomplishments/Trophies/Scripts ? [03:07] jono: for uds it depends on the definition of activity participated... for running a session, the different fields of a bp are available (approver, drafter, assignee), what is meant by run a track? track lead? [03:10] where do we report comment spam in a bug on LP? [03:10] pangolin: I was going to ask the same thing, but then I forgot (some on a lernid bug, boo) [03:10] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/metacity/+bug/150721/comments/20 this is what i am talking about [03:10] Launchpad bug 150721 in metacity ".xsession-errors: 'Failed to read saved session file'" [Critical,Fix released] [03:11] cjohnston, yeah, so I am thinking one accom could be actively participating UDS in the sense of visiting the event [03:11] another could be running a session [03:11] it's an old bug...hmm probably not worth the trouble [03:11] still very much brainstorming here [03:15] pangolin: iirc file a question against the launchpad project [03:15] jono: there is remote/physical attending of a sprint in LP [03:16] cjohnston, would you be able to recommend some launchpadlib code on that wiki page to help me get started? [03:17] jono: the running a session im not sure about.. we dont track that per se [03:17] jono: id have to research it.. Im not much familiar with lplib [03:18] cjohnston, if you get the time to do that, that would be awesome [03:19] k [03:19] anyone see the nascar fire? [03:20] jono: if you can think of anything for determining running a session, let me know [03:20] lolnascar [03:20] cjohnston, many thanks, pal! [03:20] yup [03:20] cjohnston, also, maybe some scripts on that page could query l.u.c ? [03:20] cjohnston, such as checking if someone has run an event [03:21] jono: there is an api [03:21] cjohnston, if you could offer any suggested code framents for that, that would be cool too [03:21] I just need enough to get started [03:21] pangolin: I doing watch it.. but there was a jet fuel fire [03:22] k [03:30] mhall119, is your site down? [05:52] daker you there? [07:32] morning [07:34] good morning [07:38] Morning czajkowski, dholbach [07:41] hi nigelb [07:42] I'm still sleepy and its 1 pm already. [08:03] good morning all [08:04] Hello dpm and how are you? [08:04] hey benonsoftware, very well, thanks, how about you? [08:05] I'm alright today [08:06] good good :) [10:30] Hello =) [11:22] czajkowski, Thank you for changing the bug status's back [11:22] dpm, https://code.launchpad.net/~daker/ubuntudeveloperportal/fix.942113/+merge/94874/comments/204887 [11:23] s-fox: there are a lot to do :/ [11:23] About 15 or so I think. [11:24] daker, ah, let me recheck, I thought I had fixed that commit, but perhaps my branch is not yet in trunk, just a sec... [11:25] s-fox: though to be fair some of them should be closed by now tbh, as they have been confirmed of fix committed or still new, sould tbh could do with some spring cleaning [11:26] s-fox: and some I cannot change back now either [11:26] s-fox: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntuforums.org/+bug/410858 should be closed by now [11:26] Launchpad bug 410858 in ubuntuforums.org "Ubuntuforums.org is currently down." [Undecided,New] [11:27] I thought bugs get auto marked "won't fix" after a set period anyway [11:27] @ czajkowski [11:27] s-fox: Error: "czajkowski" is not a valid command. [11:28] @ alanbell should probably fix this [11:28] popey: Error: "alanbell" is not a valid command. [11:28] ☺ [11:29] Plus I expect when Canonical finally upgrade the forum software to 4.x half of the bugs filed will be invalid [11:29] s-fox: not sur ebut that doesnt mean teams //projects can do their own spring cleaning either :) [11:30] daker, fixed and added a comment. Would you mind pulling from trunk, applying the changes and resubmitting? [11:31] czajkowski, Yes on some of the bugs. On some canonical are the ones who have control to apply any fixes. For example I saw one about the forum not complying to xhtml standards :) [11:32] s-fox: as I said not all but some [11:32] Anywho, thank you for updating the status's [11:37] * AlanBell adds a note to implement the AlanBell command [11:37] dpm, ok [11:37] cool, thanks daker! [11:37] I did implement an @Pendulum command some time ago as a joke [11:38] czajkowski, Just noticed that the bug supervisor is Joeb454, I will update it to a forum council member :) It will help keep on top of the new bugs [11:38] true [11:38] s-fox: and old bugs :) [11:38] Oh will it? Great/ [11:39] s-fox: no just reminding you to look at old baugs not just new bugs :) [11:41] Going through all 11 of them, lol [11:52] Oh wow, I aquired karma haha [11:59] Once a bug has had a fix commited how does one mark it as closed? It is still listed in "open bugs" [12:22] dpm, done [12:22] daker, yeah, I've merged your fix too :) [12:22] * dpm hugs daker [12:22] oh good [12:24] daker, if you spot anything else on https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntudeveloperportal/ you'd be interested in looking at, or if you notice any other bug while using the site, now you know how to fix them :) [12:26] ok [12:55] morning [13:02] hey mhall119, good morning! [13:08] * dholbach → off to the dentist [13:34] dholbach, ouch, I hope it's not too bad [13:34] * dpm goes for late lunch [14:58] czajkowski: hah, I have those 2 angry birds too [14:58] mine are the bigger ones [14:58] jcastro: gret for throwing at people! :) [14:58] *great [15:01] good day [15:24] dpm, it took a bit longer than expected, but it's alright [15:25] the root canal massacre is over [15:26] ouch, that does not sound "alright" to me [15:27] but glad it went well [15:27] dpm: ouchiess [15:27] dilikes dentists [15:54] dholbach, that was quick! [15:54] akgraner, eh? [15:54] your root canal [15:55] hum, I thought it took long enough - and it wasn't the treatment I expected today, but it's alright - at least right now there's no pain involved :) [15:55] last time I had one I was at the dentist for 5 hours...and was not saying "it's alright" afterward. [15:55] akgraner, wow [15:56] lucky you :-) [15:56] :) [15:57] hey all [15:57] dholbach, dpm, jcastro, balloons, mhall119 meeting in 3m [15:57] I am ready [15:57] and prewritten [15:57] and all set [15:57] yep [15:57] ;-) [15:57] morning jono, all set [15:58] jcastro, hangout, right? [15:58] dholbach, you are joking, right :-) [15:58] indeed [15:58] ayay [15:58] hangout [15:58] * dholbach hugs jono [15:58] :-) [15:58] what? this has to be irc day [15:58] hahaha [15:58] man, awesome [15:58] for the 30th time, this is IRC day [15:58] lol [16:00] everyone, team meeting in a minute for those who want to ask questions [16:01] #startmeeting [16:01] Meeting started Tue Feb 28 16:01:18 2012 UTC. The chair is jono. Information about MeetBot at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/meetingology.

[16:01] welcome to the weekly Canonical Community Team meeting!@ [16:01] we will run through some status updates and everyone is welcome to ask questions [16:02] lets kick off with...the man that other men want to be...mhall! [16:02] mhall119, you are up :-) [16:02] oh, how did I get to be first? [16:02] ok, here we go [16:03] * Reached out again to Asian LoCo teams, up to 5 regional events now (up from zero last cycle, and 2 a year ago) [16:03] wha wha [16:03] lol [16:03] it looks like we're doing better in Asia, Oceana and Africa [16:03] it's Europe and the Americas that are slacking [16:03] * Finished unity-lens template for Quickly, based on Singlet [16:04] didrocks is reviewing and giving me changes to make as we speak [16:04] * Blogged about adding Unity Quicklists to applications (15 submissions so far) [16:05] I had a *lot* of great community involvement around that, but I need to keep following up with them to make sure they all get to where they need to be [16:05] * Blogged about upstreaming Quicklist submissions [16:05] ^^ like that [16:05] * Worked with the ARB to finalize rules for getting Unity Lenses and Scopes into Software Center (first attempt using the new process this week) [16:06] we should hopefully start seeing a lot more lenses and scopes available in the software center now that this process has been agreed upon [16:06] davidcalle is starting it off by submitting his graphic design lens and scopes [16:06] :-) [16:06] * Recreated Mozilla SUMO instance for ubuntu-docs team testing [16:06] and fixed the apache+wsgi bug so that users can actually login now [16:07] (still need to configure it for sending email) [16:07] * Interviewed and blogged about Oregon team's jams [16:07] bkerensa is rocking the west-coast [16:07] * Interviewed and blogged about Florida team's jams [16:07] cjohnston is rocking the east-coast :) [16:07] * Blogged about adding Unity searchable keyworkds to applications [16:08] this was a specific request from the DX team, and I'm hoping to get as much excitement around it as we had around quicklists [16:08] * Worked with dpm on cleaning up and moving Unity documentation to developer.u.c [16:08] (much more cleanup to be done) [16:08] * dpm high-fives mhall119 [16:08] * Fixed permissions issues on summit that were preventing people from voting on sponsorships [16:08] * mhall119 is done [16:08] mhall119, will we have to reject some of the quick list contributions for the 12.04 time-frame? there was a question about the current contributions in the sponsoring queue in a discussion on ubuntu-devel@ - should they be ignored for now? [16:08] how's sumo look? Is it awesome? [16:09] like, do you think it's going to be good for us? Or we still just evaluating? [16:09] dholbach: yes, Universe packages will not get these quicklist submissions for 12.04 [16:09] jcastro, it looks like it *could* be good [16:09] offers a useful foundation [16:09] mhall119, so those merge proposals should be rejected? everything else can go in? [16:09] jcastro: it has a lot of potential [16:09] * jcastro nods [16:09] dholbach: I think that was the desktop team's position, yes [16:10] dholbach, we need a wider discussion re. translations and universe [16:10] mhall119, can you sync up dholbach and dpm on this and see if we can find a solution? [16:10] dholbach: we're getting updated specs for making quicklists anyway, so I'll go back to all the contributors with those changes too [16:10] jono: There is a typo on your latest blog entry ...'rythmnbox' should read 'rhythmbox' [16:10] thanks ahayzen [16:10] ok, I'll have a chat with seb128 again - I don't want sponsors to feel "there are submissions I should not look at" [16:10] jono: sure [16:10] mhall119, thanks [16:10] so the earlier we make a decision the better [16:10] jono: Anytime :) [16:10] :-) [16:10] alrighty [16:10] dholbach: how about you and I chat with him after the meeting [16:11] next up.... [16:11] sure [16:11] thanks mhall119 [16:11] np [16:11] ...a man familiar with the art of rhythm...the rhythm of love...dholbach! [16:11] deadmou5! [16:11] lol [16:11] hahaha [16:11] jono, I don't hear that the first time [16:11] lol [16:11] anyway.... [16:12] - Dev initiatives: formed Fix It Friday team, planned the event, announced it, blogged about its success. [16:12] :-) [16:12] - Dev Advisory Team: more planning with huats, mailed a lot of contributors, followed up with a number of them. Working on a number of automated check-lists for the d-a-t. [16:12] - Uploads Data: some minor fixes. [16:12] - Dev News: got out another issue, interviewed bkerensa. [16:12] - Sponsoring: did my patch pilot shift. Helped integrate a change into Sponsoring Overview (http://reqorts.qa.ubuntu.com/reports/sponsoring/) to visualise age of submission - thanks Andrew Starr-Bochicchio and Benjamin Drung. Send reminders about patch piloting. Discussions about improving sponsoring. [16:12] man, everyone is interviewing bkerensa [16:12] - Dev Docs: some updates to Packaging Guide: finally use the same branding, couple of other fixes. Thanks Andrew Starr-Bochicchio and Alexander Fougner. [16:13] - UGJ: mailed the Egyptian team about their missing venue - sorted out and I was excited to learn they are having a Packaging Jam! [16:13] - GSoC: some discussion about the organisation. Application time-frame started yesterday - not sure how well things stand for us. [16:13] - Discussed backports process with dpm. [16:13] - Fixed checkbox-beta1 packaging with balloons. [16:13] Done. :) [16:14] dholbach: did you talk to the LC about making Fix It Friday a global event on loco.u.c? [16:14] mhall119, no, in the end I decided to not do it - it doesn't make too much sense - it's a virtual event in one place (IRC) [16:16] it still might give it more exposure and get loco-teams talking about it among themselves [16:16] loco.u.c supports virtual (online/irc) events at any rate [16:16] it's a possibility - I think'll about it [16:17] any further questions? [16:17] alrighty! [16:17] next up... [16:18] ...a man so cool he even looks cool in Metallica pajamas...believe it or not....jcastro! [16:18] ALRIGHT! [16:18] ## Jorge's Weekly Report [16:18] This report is best consumed with this [background music](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KfAtqCTs39A): [16:18] whoops, drop the ): on that, sorry [16:18] ### Juju [16:18] - Kicked off the [juju charm school contest](http://cloud.ubuntu.com/2012/02/juju-charm-contest-help-bring-free-software-into-the-cloud/) We're giving away Amazon gift cards so tell a friend, or submit something awesome. [16:19] - 3 new incoming community charms in review, LodgeIt (a cool python pastebin) and Stack Mobile (run your own mobile interface for stackoverflow. Not anything other people would use, but the guy runs the service and wanted it managed, so woo woo.) The third charm is the Symfony PHP framework, not ready to review but the guy is working on it, good progress. [16:19] - A bunch of other server team charms being worked on, lots of James Page work on the Hadoop/HBase stack, this will be awesome in Precise. Little fixes around the charms due to mmim's work on automated testing. Soon broken charms will just make things blink so we know. Got Jenkins, the whole 9 yards. [16:19] - Some charm browser stuff with Kapil, graphs are ninja now, and he's upgrading it to bootstrap 2.0 so we can make it look more Ubuntuish. Talked about how we want to make it more social so people can disqus (pun!) directly on the charm pages and be able to share the charm browser pages with friends via social networks. [16:19] - Charm Store allegedly in time for Beta 1 in 2 days. Allegedly. :) [16:19] - juju Charm School Webinar, March 8th, already have 90(!) people signed up! [16:19] - Rehearsed with Petra today, slides @ design getting finalized. Webinars, serious business. [16:19] - Way more people than the IRC charm schools so far, perhaps use this venue more? [16:20] - Server Blog planning with Clint and MMims, but webinar/slides in the way, Mims on his way to Strata this week. [16:20] so not much progress on the blog [16:20] - Summit Charm should be done today, if Mims can't finish it (he's off the grid this minute) Clint will finish it up tonight, he made good progress yesterday. He's made it so the django charm will be reusable, fixing dpm's use case from the other day. [16:20] - Marketing team wants juju marketing materials to be a whitepaper, not a handout for events, Matt Barker sorting it, pinged Antonio for guidance. [16:20] - CharmSchool for the OpenStack Summit is now on. 5-8pm on the thursday, waiting on food/drinks quotes, from Cezz, but not much left for me to do there other than show up. :) [16:20] Any questions on juju? [16:20] [intermission] [16:21] ok, moving on [16:21] ### Other [16:21] - Global Jam Tasks (Server/juju/askubuntu) all on the wiki and ready to go. [16:21] - Blogged about the [awesomeness in Michigan](http://www.jorgecastro.org/2012/02/23/how-ubuntu-michigan-runs-jams/). Thanks snap-l for the interview. [16:21] - Repinged other teams, got a bite in Mexico, but they seem to have made a separate event instead of adding onto the existing one. [16:21] - Forums upgraded to 3.x.pointsomething, this takes care of the security issue, IS looking at 4.x upgrade this week. <3 Forums Council and Technoviking for their support. Good progress being made. [16:21] - A bit behind on OpenWeek planning, but nothing major. [16:22] - As always you can watch my Trellos for what I am working on: [16:22] - [Random Community things](https://trello.com/board/community-team/4e6febfb247e35000000aab1) [16:22] - [Juju Stuff](https://trello.com/board/juju-growth/4ec1696da3f94bd2ea5b2b01) [16:22] - [OpenWeek](https://trello.com/board/classroom/4e94f7afaef5aa0000a5d2ea) [16:22] Any questions? [16:22] I was determined to not get flamed for being too short this week. :) [16:22] good work jcastro [16:22] jcastro: too short [16:22] hah [16:23] wait for DPM [16:23] he probably has a 35 minute multimedia presentation [16:23] hah [16:23] alright [16:23] lol [16:23] next up....

[16:27] sorry, machine hung [16:27] mhall119, let me tell you in a minute, I had a quick glance at it last week but I can't remember - I would think it is if David said we should wait for the template to be packaged [16:28] ok [16:28] • Published PyGI AppIndicator API documentation on d.u.c, after noticing it wasn't being generated [16:28] if it is, it might need updates [16:28] ok, yeah, let me check at the end of the notes and I can be more detailed in the answer [16:28] • Researched, discussed and learnt more about backports from dholbach, thanks! ;-) [16:29] Translators [16:29] ----------- [16:29] • Started working on the Complete 12.04 Chinese Desktop project with kyleN: [16:29] ∘ Reviewed actions [16:29] ∘ Provided a first version of the schedule [16:29] ∘ Contacted the community reviewers and arranged call for this week [16:29] • Coordinated publishing the full language pack in preparation for Beta-1 [16:29] • Provided feedback on a few User Interface Freeze exceptions affecting translations [16:30] • Discussed translations accomplishments with translators - added to this week's translations call agenda to come up with a good set and implement them https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Translations/TrophySuggestions [16:30] • Worked on a "20% time" project to port the existing translations stats - here's a demo for you http://176.34.113.223/stats/ [16:30] * dpm loves django [16:30] Loco teams [16:30] ---------- [16:30] • Ubuntu Global Jam Q+A videocast http://www.ustream.tv/recorded/20661432 - a new jam in Mumbai got signed up during the session :) [16:31] • Behind on blogging about the Slovenian and Catalan UGJ events, but about to catch up [16:31] Other [16:31] ----- [16:31] • Reviewed and assessed currently remaining work items and their priorities with Jono, agreed to postpone a few [16:31] • Talked with xdatap1 about localized ISOs and pointed him to the right places to find the information - the Italian team is going to generate a localized Italian derivative https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ItalianCD [16:31] Ok, these were the highlights.

The response has been amazing, I hope everyone can contibute by running the tests, help write them, or both :-) http://www.theorangenotebook.com/2012/02/opportunity-manual-application-testing.html [16:34] wow [16:34] * balloons has stunned and captivated his audience [16:34] "Spent all day developing ascii balloon for this meeting" better be one of his items [16:34] balloons, any tests submitted balloons? [16:35] jono, yes, my inbox has some new gedit tests in it [16:35] balloons, cool [16:35] turns out you can't submit merges to junk branches [16:35] I need to fix.. whoops! [16:35] balloons: didrocks asked me about trying to get community involvement writing autopilot tests for unity, can I get with you about that later today? [16:36] mhall119, yes you can [16:36] although I'm offically not here today [16:36] I'm writing tests :-) [16:36] indeed [16:36] maybe that's my other balloon [16:36] continuing... I have been working with the checkbox folks alot about how the tool can be revamped for better ease of use, and cleaned up and created some documentation surrounding the tool. These guys are excitied to see the increased usage of the tool, so if your interested in digging in here, get involved! The code lives on launchpad here: https://launchpad.net/checkbox [16:36] * mhall119 hums "99 red balloons" [16:37] Launched my first ppa and built my first deb with lp, both for the manual application testing -- thanks for helping dholbach! [16:37] I spoke briefly about the future of testing inside ubuntu -- using a standardized test case management system (we're still looking at case conductor), a standardized test delivery framework system (checkbox is getting looked at now :-) ), and a standardized metrics/feedback/reporting system. We're looking at possibly using ubuntu accomplishments, launchpad, the ubuntu wiki, or something else entirely for metrics -- it's pretty wide open. [16:37] If you've got ideas on this I would love to hear them. [16:38] not the wiki [16:38] I plan on having UDS sessions about how testing will happen in the Q cycle.. and I want to hit the ground running with in-place processes, tools, etc.. so it's important we do some prototyping if we can while we can this cycle [16:39] mhall119, everything is open as an option.. :-) I'm assuming we can find a better tool [16:39] Polished up a criticial packages list (did I mention this last time?) -- I'm going to be using the list to target which applications we want tests for; you'll notice the critical basic productivity apps are all being targeted for beta1 :-) Check out the list here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PrecisePangolin/CriticalPackages [16:40] I got interviewed by s-fox! Obligitaory linky: http://serial-coder.co.uk/blog/2012/02/an-interview-with-balloons/ If you care to know anymore about me, feel free to read it. [16:40] ? [16:40] doing the interview was fun, thanks for asking s-fox -- I hope someone found it useful ;-p [16:40] oh right, no worries. thank you [16:41] :-) [16:42] balloons: are your critical packages mostly for desktop, or are you also targetting server apps? [16:42] is that everything balloons? [16:42] Finally, the ubuntu qa landscape is still a bit difficult to follow, and I hope I'm helping to change that.. with that in mind I have been Working with Alvaro from U+1 subforums to help give a more offical status (and responsibilities) to those who are testing U+1 and running/reporting bugs on a day to day basis. I'm not sure what the ultimate form of this will take just yet, but I suspect we will talk more about structure in preparation [16:42] for the q cycle [16:43] mhall119, the server page still needs work.. I got some other folks to also have a look.. I will eventually get back to it.. the desktop page is complete [16:43] that's all folks! [16:43] balloons: is there a CLI verson of checkbox for servers? [16:43] thanks balloons [16:43] any questions, folks? [16:44] mhall119, indeed there is [16:45] alrighty [16:45] I will go next [16:45] * General [16:45] what, no intro? [16:46] lol [16:46] and here is jono: [16:46] :-) [16:46] the man who needs no introduction... [16:46] * Looking good - burndown is in shape. Postponed some work items to re-focus some parts of the cycle more effectively. [16:46] hehe ok :) [16:46] lol [16:46] * Developers [16:46] * Getting our sponsorship situation is shape.

[16:50] * Produced a "How to file a bug report in Ubuntu video" - http://youtu.be/18nsScrDIa0 [16:50] * Lots of testing and QA. Looks like my wirless bug is fixed, woo! [16:50] and that's me [16:50] any questions? [16:50] sweet news on the wireless fix! [16:51] jono: repete was wondering what, if any, community involvement we can do around Ubuntu on Android [16:51] oh cool to see Duncan around [16:51] mhall119, right now there is not much needed [16:51] jono, I guess I can replace my video with yours on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs then :) [16:51] balloons, yeah I am stoked it is fixed [16:51] dholbach, :-) [16:52] I'll do that later [16:52] cool! [16:53] alrighty [16:53] thanks everyone!

[16:53] Minutes (wiki): http://ubottu.com/meetingology/logs/ubuntu-community-team/2012/ubuntu-community-team.2012-02-28-16.01.moin.txt [16:53] Minutes (html): http://ubottu.com/meetingology/logs/ubuntu-community-team/2012/ubuntu-community-team.2012-02-28-16.01.html [16:55] ok so I still don't get what the ascii art is supposed to be [16:55] is that a balloon and clouds? [16:55] totally! [16:55] hot air balloon [16:56] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Twenty-One_Balloons [16:56] http://www.chris.com/ascii/index.php?art=objects%2Fballoons [16:56] I can't believe you went ascii art. [16:56] it's going to have to be _on_ for next week [16:59] lol [16:59] jcastro: yeah, but he didn't use colors [16:59] lol [16:59] true [17:00] whoa [17:00] dudes [17:01] I found daniel ascii art [17:01] http://www.asciipaint.com/viewImages.php?i=501 [17:01] seems apt that the deadmau5 thing is made out of dollar signs [17:01] that guy is an asshole [17:02] I feel the need to come up with some other animal mask we can put on daniel during UDS [17:02] hah [17:02] kitten? [17:02] deadpango5 [17:02] I would seriously wear a big head with LEDs to every session [17:02] <----- ok lunch for me. BBI 60m.

[17:41] yep [17:41] at work [17:41] jono, ^ [17:41] balloons, do you know about launchpad.net/checkbox-editor [17:42] i do [17:42] never tried to use [17:42] daker np prv msg [17:42] not sure it works or not? [17:44] jono, check this out : https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apport/+bug/927912 [17:44] Launchpad bug 927912 in apport "Apport doesn't point out third-party packages in reports" [Wishlist,Fix committed] [17:44] :-) +1 mpitt [17:45] balloons, nice! [17:45] brb [17:58] anyone seeing a little white box rendered on occasion on the top left of the screen [17:58] it doesn't go away so I assume a driver issue? [18:08] Goodbye. [18:19] jcastro, holy crap [18:19] http://www.ironmaiden.com/maiden-on-the-charge.html [18:21] Not sure I like the paperless ticket thing [18:21] but the rest is awesome. :) [18:22] alright my friends - see you all tomorrow [18:24] snap-l, will be great to see them playing Seventh Son content [18:25] anyone having menu drawing slowly or not till mouseover? [18:32] argh no Florida! [18:33] Detroit in July. :) [18:33] Man, that's a hell of a schedule [18:34] it's awesome is what it is [18:34] dang, that's like one of my favorite records too [18:34] I am still debating spending the cash on Roger Water's this time [18:38] hmm, june 16th. [18:38] jono: is that date on your sprint radar at all? [18:38] lol [18:39] noper [18:39] but I am going [18:39] brb, breakfast [18:40] going? [18:40] to maiden or roger waters? [18:41] I can recommend the Roger Waters show [18:45] I had tickets last time [18:45] and then UDS happened and I had to give them up. :( [18:45] :( [18:45] so I want to be double sure, since they're going for north of $300 a pop here [18:46] Well my walet is still hurting but I have to say it was worth it [18:46] besides, I saw the 7th son tour first time round [21:45] mhall119: hey so did we talk bug control admin responsibilities yet? [21:45] I need to get that card out of my TODO list [21:46] balloons: ok so should I reping stefano about case conductor again? [21:46] jcastro: was there more than "Be careful and don't break stuff" that we needed to talk about? [21:46] or is it still in the waiting for it to work part. [21:47] mhall119: yeah so the tl;dr is [21:47] upstreams who want to control their own bugs in launchpad should be able to do so [21:47] jcastro, he should be able to deploy it and get it up and running at any time now [21:47] the thing is, that's part of the bug control, and usually it's like this huge application process [21:47] since it's for general triagers [21:47] with bug control we say "you want your own bugs, absolutely, here you go." [21:48] we can't make a new team for upstreams to manage their own project's bugs? [21:48] in ubuntu [21:48] not in their projects [21:48] oh, ok [21:48] their projects might not even be on launchpad [21:48] so then, when joe smith applies for control of VLC for example [21:48] some projects have holding pages on lp but mostly to message adn let people know where to go on their project pages [21:48] the QA people tell him to ping me [21:48] and they send me a mail [21:49] all you have to do is do some due diligence to make sure the guy is actually from the project [21:49] for me I almost always find the person's activity in the upstream VCS or bug tracker [21:49] then you can just add them to the team [21:49] ok [21:49] add them to the bug control team? [21:50] yep [21:50] that's it [21:50] easy enough [21:50] and then a little Spider-man "with great powers comes great responsibility" thing in the reply mail [21:50] usually it's something like "thanks for contributing to ubuntu ... blah" [21:51] last I was told anyone in bug control can change bugs around [21:51] so we don't want joe smith with VLC bug control access to go mess with glibc bugs or whatever [21:51] jcastro: but we can't actually stop them once they're in bug control, can we? We just give them the spider-man speech and honor system [21:52] yeah [21:52] but like, no one in the 4 years I've been doing it has ever done anything bad [21:52] seems like a shortcoming in LP [21:52] ok [21:52] if they're involved in an upstream project they're usually not dumb [21:52] honor systems sometimes work better than enforcement [21:52] but yeah, I don't know why LP isn't ACLed like that [21:52] I do [21:52] but then again, it's just bug switches [21:52] have you *seen* Zope code? [21:53] heh [21:53] czajkowski knows what I'm talking about now, don't you czajkowski ? [21:53] I'm learnign fast [21:53] adn yes bug control is interesting! spent today removing spam and someone dediced to close bugs and add fix committed to them and marking all sorts of projects effected [21:54] then when I wanted to remove the spam I had to ask webops to do so as new features stop people doing stuff [21:54] :/ [21:58] "thanks for contributing to ubuntu ... blah" <- My new signature. === albrigha is now known as Guest54222 [22:24] heya mhall119 [22:24] when you get a chance can you clean out your items from the trello and put them in Done! or Postpone? [22:25] yo yo yo [22:25] I'm going to clear out that bad boy today [22:25] hey cjohnston [22:25] so mims is charming up summit [22:25] and he told me: [22:25] "seems like summit is well-built from what I've seen so far" [22:25] awesome [22:25] "those guys know what they're doing" [22:25] thanks to mhall119 and nigelb [22:31] hey nigelb [22:31] you going to enter the charm contest? [22:31] I am in need of the server side firefox sync server [22:32] +1, go nigelb [22:33] Morning jcastro. [22:33] I wasn't planning to. But now, *maybe*. [22:33] jcastro: it's certainly a far sight better than it was when we started [22:34] +1 [22:34] I think spending that full cycle on nothing but fixes, testing, and cleaning really paid off [22:34] nigelb: next time I head out to the left coast I want to stop by MoCo and convince someone on your web infra team to dig it. [22:34] jcastro: I think the problem there is Mozilla deploys to RHEL, not Ubuntu :( [22:35] (well, most of the time) [22:35] while that's important to me (getting them to use Ubuntu), I mean the other way around as the important use case [22:36] "oh neat, some cool infra tool from mozilla, *type type*, deployed!" [22:36] Agreed. [22:36] *cough* sumo *cough* [22:36] caseconductor, etc. etc. [22:36] think of startups just firing those up right on the fly. [22:38] I don't know about caseconductor, but I know sumo isn't proudctized very well yet. [22:38] on the other hand, the crash reporting stuff is installed all over the place. [22:38] Steam uses it. [22:38] And a bunch of other gaming companies. [22:38] * jcastro nods [22:38] I've got a dude doing case conductor for the contest already [22:39] nice! [22:39] what's the crash one? [22:39] <3 [22:39] https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/products/Firefox [22:40] ok so the server piece is socorro [22:40] and the clients? [22:41] do people just make their own stubs to feed socorro? [22:41] Both [22:41] people run their on servers and clients [22:41] oh I see, breakpad libraries [22:41] for other desktop software [22:42] http://socorro.readthedocs.org/en/latest/installation.html [22:42] blam, that is so charmable [22:42] nigelb: is there a list of projects using this? [22:43] jcastro: I don't think so. I've only heard laura (the manger for the team) talk about it at conferences. [22:46] ok, filed a bug, man that would be a slick one for the contest. [22:47] nigelb: what else do you guys have server side that is this cool? [22:47] bugzilla? [22:47] if its not done yet [22:51] it's on the list somewhere [22:54] jcastro: so, nothing else jumps out at me yet, but if it doesn, I'll ping you :) [23:10] mhall119: http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/ubuntu-us-florida/1445/detail/ [23:22] what is the best pad to use? [23:22] pad? [23:22] like etherpad? [23:22] http://pad.ubuntu-uk.org/ [23:23] that type of pad [23:23] pad.ubuntu.com [23:23] which is the best one to use for Ubuntu? [23:23] aha! [23:24] we have a charm for it too yo [23:25] cool :-) [23:25] we enable anyone to make a link farm, hah [23:25] how persistent are the URLs? [23:26] e.g. http://pad.ubuntu.com/g0Qpg4pRIJ [23:26] very [23:26] cool [23:26] though I recommend just making them human readable [23:26] you can do pad.ubuntu.com/whatever-you-want [23:26] oh nice [23:27] indeed, it's quite a nice system [23:28] \o/ etherpad [23:29] hmmm how do I switch of the tagging thing? [23:29] http://pad.ubuntu.com/accomplishments [23:29] tagging is a place I am not sure of [23:29] don't use hashes ;) [23:29] nigelb, lol [23:30] you can't escape a hash? [23:30] it's no big deal [23:30] actually dude, you leave a full link to the web thing we embed anyway [23:30] that'll work [23:48] alright, anyone want to help flesh out the docs on http://pad.ubuntu.com/accomplishments ? [23:55] jcastro, can you flesh out the Juju ones on http://pad.ubuntu.com/accomplishments now? [23:55] and then I will add them [23:56] jcastro, they are near the bottom [23:56] jono: looking now [23:56] looking [23:56] cprofitt, thanks for your help! [23:56] are dependencies in here? [23:56] like the one depending on the other one? [23:57] jcastro, I took them out to keep this simple [23:57] but they are already in there [23:58] jcastro, I would to make the instructions more specific and expansive [23:58] ok no worries, I was just wondering if that was on purpose or not [23:58] thanks jcastro
