| Cheesehead | I thought three comments was a wild success for this channel | 00:18 |
| soaringsky | lol | 00:22 |
| Cheesehead | Ooh! Four now. | 00:22 |
| soaringsky | five | 00:22 |
| Cheesehead | It's a party! | 00:23 |
| soaringsky | how is your ubuntu membership coming along? | 00:24 |
| Cheesehead | I got it. I've posted a couple times to Planet Ubuntu, I'm helping out at the Wausau event next week, and keeping Brainstorm tottering along. | 00:25 |
| Cheesehead | So I try to stay engaged | 00:25 |
| soaringsky | cool | 00:25 |
| Cheesehead | Though with the weather nice, who wants to sit around typing? | 00:26 |
| soaringsky | yeah, I couldn't believe how warm it was | 00:26 |
| soaringsky | just a few weeks ago we had snow | 00:27 |
| soaringsky | I guess my ski season is over... | 00:27 |
| Cheesehead | Reckon so... | 00:27 |
| soaringsky | sunburst semi-officially is done | 00:28 |
| Cheesehead | sunburst? | 00:29 |
| soaringsky | I barely made it out enough times to justify my season pass | 00:29 |
| Cheesehead | Oh, *that* subnurst | 00:29 |
| soaringsky | sunburst is a ski hill in kewaskum | 00:29 |
| Cheesehead | Some day I must teach the kids to ski...though with expected climate change I suppose waterskiing would be a better choice. | 00:30 |
| soaringsky | lol | 00:30 |
| soaringsky | one of these days I'll become an ubuntu member... | 00:31 |
| soaringsky | I've worked hundreds of bugs in the past week | 00:32 |
| Cheesehead | Awesome! I've reopened one that was erroneously pushed to Brainstorm. | 00:32 |
| Cheesehead | The Release meeting this week had a lot of nasty Critical bugs. | 00:33 |
| soaringsky | recently I cleaned out the dapper and jaunty bugtasks | 00:33 |
| Cheesehead | I saw the note about Dapper. | 00:33 |
| Cheesehead | Thank you. That was a big, dirty job that nevertheless needed to be done. | 00:34 |
| soaringsky | of the 60ish dapper bugtasks, only one was still a valid bug | 00:34 |
| soaringsky | ubuntu has tens of thousands of really old bugs that need to be cleaned | 00:34 |
| soaringsky | I recently closed a few *breezy* bugs | 00:34 |
| Cheesehead | How about you have an Event for the LoCo to attack a pile of them? | 00:35 |
| Cheesehead | Every time I ask, people say they're interested in bugs. | 00:36 |
| Cheesehead | You caould provide a bit of direction and mentoring | 00:36 |
| soaringsky | sure. I'm also gonna pick the brains of #ubuntu-bugs on ways to deal with old bugs | 00:36 |
| Cheesehead | If the time is convenient, I'll be here for it. | 00:37 |
| soaringsky | we also of thousands of bugs for packages that only exist in hardy, and were later dropped. those bugs will never get fixed | 00:37 |
| Cheesehead | So some just need to be tagged, then a script can auto-comment and close them? | 00:38 |
| Cheesehead | (or we could get fancy with launchpadlib) | 00:39 |
| soaringsky | probably | 00:39 |
| soaringsky | but the problem is that every bug is unique | 00:39 |
| soaringsky | I could write a script to find hardy-only packages | 00:40 |
| Cheesehead | Quite true. I only suggest mass-comments/closings for specific limited curcumstances. | 00:40 |
| soaringsky | you probably do a script to comment on really old bugs and ask if they still exist. set status to incomplete | 00:42 |
| Cheesehead | I would be quite annoyed if a bug I files was 'botted. | 00:42 |
| * Cheesehead chastises his fumbly fingers for spelling | 00:42 | |
| soaringsky | true. but in my experience with old bugs, you only hear back is less than 5% of cases | 00:43 |
| Cheesehead | Agreed. Been there... | 00:43 |
| soaringsky | and you kind of need to know if a bug still exists in order to fix it... | 00:43 |
| Cheesehead | True | 00:44 |
| Cheesehead | Is Old Bugs the main interest right now? | 00:44 |
| soaringsky | for me it is... I'm on a mission | 00:44 |
| soaringsky | ubuntu is drowning in bugs | 00:45 |
| Cheesehead | I think you should share the mission. Some of us in the LoCo are willing to help. | 00:45 |
| soaringsky | definitely | 00:46 |
| Cheesehead | Okay, I declare you to be in charge of the WI LoCo Old Bugs Project. | 00:47 |
| soaringsky | accepted | 00:47 |
| Cheesehead | How about you send a message to the e-mail list "Hey, I'm starting the WI LoCo Old Bugs Project..." | 00:48 |
| soaringsky | will do | 00:48 |
| Cheesehead | "Join me in IRC on blah day/time, and we'll get started..." | 00:49 |
| Cheesehead | "I'll show you the ropes..." | 00:49 |
| Cheesehead | "Our goal is to close (achievable number) in (month or year)" | 00:49 |
| Cheesehead | I'm quite sure h00k will be happy to bless such a project. | 00:49 |
| soaringsky | how bout we all join 5-a-day? | 00:50 |
| Cheesehead | An excellent idea! | 00:50 |
| Cheesehead | (Though not for me. I wouldn't be able to keep that pace) | 00:51 |
| Cheesehead | Some days I can do lots, other days none. I can average a few a day... | 00:51 |
| soaringsky | 5-a-day will be great for keeping score | 00:52 |
| Cheesehead | Ah, true! I had forgotten about that aspect. | 00:52 |
| soaringsky | 5-a-day also lets you do 5/7 days per week, for weekly scores | 00:53 |
| Cheesehead | In that case, an even better Idea, and I will join. | 00:53 |
| Cheesehead | There. I just joined. | 00:56 |
| soaringsky | ttyl | 01:00 |
