dpmgood morning all07:04
dholbachgood morning07:04
diwichi, I have a user who have - probably with good intentions - spammed ~15 bugs with advice that might be wrong.07:31
diwicHe has probably fixed his microphone by following this advice himself, and then assumed the same advice would fix everybody's mics.07:32
bkerensadiwic: this is probably not the appropriate channel for this? Do you need some specific help with this?07:33
diwicoh, it's actually 39 bugs. :-/07:34
diwicbkerensa, well, I believe he should be told not to do so07:34
bkerensadiwic: well this is the Community Team channel. #ubuntu-bugs would likely be more appropriate if you join that channel you can provide the bug ID's and I will go ahead and look into it07:35
diwicok07:36
dholbachdiwic, I think you could just mail the guy and tell him that this won't work for all the cases of broken mics07:40
dholbachand maybe point him to some debugging audio problems page07:40
dholbachwhenever I spotted people giving bad advice in an area of my expertise I did that and they were usually receptive of the feedback07:41
bkerensadiwic: ^07:41
diwicdholbach, cool. I was thinking of pinging you about it, but didn't want to disturb your precious patch pilot time :-)07:41
bkerensa:D07:42
dholbachdiwic, if you can't find an email address of the person in LP, you can use the "contact this user" button07:43
diwicok, I'll do that. Thanks.07:44

alourieI need to file a missing link :-)09:56
dholbachalourie, which page?09:57
alouriehi dholbach09:57
dholbachhey alourie09:57

alourie"Workflow and tools" points to a non-existent page09:58
alouriedholbach:  ^^09:59
dholbachin this case you'd best file a bug on https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntudeveloperportal/+filebug09:59
alouriedholbach: ok09:59
dholbachthat will make sure it's on dpm's radar09:59
alouriedholbach: any tags?10:00
dholbachno, I think it should be fine just like that10:01

alouriedone, reported10:02

mhall119good morning11:54
nigelbHey mhall119!11:57
cjohnstonmornin12:01
mhall119cjohnston: hey, not sure if you'd be interested in these stats http://91.189.93.100:8000/report/summit/12:03
mhall119I was using summit as a testcase for a side project12:03
cjohnstoncool12:03
cjohnstonwhat would be cool is if it showed lines of code chang12:03
cjohnstone12:03
mhall119yeah, that's be a lot harder12:04
mhall119right now it's just parsing a bare bzr log12:04
nigelbNeat.12:07
nigelb*facepalm*12:21
nigelbOnly today I got the significance of the word Unity. 12:21
nigelbEspecially in the context of Ubuntu.12:22
mhall119:)12:27
cjohnstonDaviey: ping12:36
Davieycjohnston: hola12:39
cjohnstonhey Daviey.. we have an issue that we are trying to fix in Summit.. I think you may be familiar enough (or were familiar enough) with the codebase to help us..12:40
cjohnstonThere is that you cant put a session that takes two slots in a slot that has a break after it....12:40
cjohnstonWe want to make the scheduling stuff ignore the break and let it be scheduled12:41
cjohnstonAny chance you would be willing to help us try to solve this?12:42
Davieycjohnston: interesting..  i don't think that was ever 'fixed'.. i think for that situation the item was split into Part-1 and Part-2.. making it two sessions.12:54
mhall119Daviey: any suggestions on where such a fix would need to be made?12:56
Davieycjohnston: I think if you really want to fix it, you need to add an attribute to the session (override-break), and allow that in the code which otherwise blocks it.12:56
Davieybut really, a break isn't a type of session.. so it might be more tricky.12:57
Davieyif break/lunch was a session type, that just can't be scheduled to.. i think it would be easier.12:57
mhall119Daviey: I was thinking it can be made to just ignore non-open slots when checking for a conflict12:57
Davieymhall119: is a break a slot?12:57
mhall119Daviey: yes12:57
DavieyAh, i thought it wasn't.12:57
mhall119the 5-minutes between are not, the 15-minute ones are12:58
mhall119we don't have an issue scheduling over the 5-minute ones, it's the 15-minute ones we can't12:58
DavieyYes.. so.. I'd add an attribute to the session that allows it to ignore breaks.. then as mhall119 points out, override that when confcit decreasing12:58
mhall119so if we just ignore those slot types, I think it would be fine12:58
Davieydetecting12:58
mhall119Daviey: do you know where that conflict detecting happens?12:59
* Daviey branches13:00
Daviey35 tag(s) updated. ... crikey13:00
Daviey            # Check that the slot is not closed13:04
Daviey            if this_slot.type not in ('open', 'plenary'):13:04
Daviey                raise Meeting.SchedulingError("Slot not available")13:04
Davieyi'd add.. or if slot.type == break and session.break_override13:05
Davieycjohnston / mhall119 ^^13:05
DavieySo add an attribute to a session which allows it to ignore the rule13:06
Daviey(you don't want all sessions doing it.. right?)13:06
cjohnstonright13:08
cjohnstonok..13:08
cjohnstonthat sounds good to me.. mhall119 ?13:08
mhall119go for it13:12
