bodhi_zazen[topic]Re-defining Mission and Vision statement of UBT.00:01
=== meetingology changed the topic of #ubuntu-meeting to: Re-defining Mission and Vision statement of UBT.
duanedesigno/00:02
bodhi_zazenAre we re-defining it again ?00:02
bodhi_zazenlol00:02
MobileDruifApparently00:02
=== MobileDruif is now known as MrChrisDruif
IAmNotThatGuybodhi_zazen, We should change the Vision of BT. It should not be just helping the beginners enter the community. Moreover, we should make BT as the entry point for the whole community00:02
IAmNotThatGuyMissions should be updated like milestones to be achieved for each six months or an year00:03
bodhi_zazenI am not sure the BT is going to be the entry point, team is too isolated00:03
bodhi_zazenforums, LP, IRC, and askubuntu are the most common entry points00:03
duanedesigncurrent mission: The Ubuntu Beginners Team exists to enhance the initial experience of new Ubuntu users and to guide existing Ubuntu users to become part of the global Ubuntu community.00:04
bodhi_zazenMission is to guide those new to contributing to the community to the various team00:04
bodhi_zazenMission should likely be "To guide existing Ubuntu users to become part of the global Ubuntu community."00:05
IAmNotThatGuyOkay00:05
bodhi_zazenThe first part of the mission "to enhance the initial experience of new Ubuntu users" requires you all to be active on forums, #ubuntu, LP, and askubuntu00:05
MrChrisDruifSo we are just nitpicking about formulation on the wiki?00:06
JoseeAntonioRNot always people are in #ubuntu, as it's too noisy. Also, askubuntu is a similar interface to LP, so mainly both of them are fine00:06
bodhi_zazenThe BT is what you all want to make of it really00:07
MrChrisDruifJoseeAntonioR: I don't see how LP and askubuntu are similar in interface00:07
MrChrisDruifForums and LP are more similar afaik00:08
bodhi_zazenIf you want to greet new users, to me that means active on forums, askubuntu, #ubuntu, and LP00:08
duanedesignthe 'to enhance the initial experience of new users'  i thought was more for those who like to help out in #ubuntu-beginners00:08
JoseeAntonioRWell, in LP (for LP Answers) and in askubuntu you ask questions, and they're answered, the question being asked and tracked00:08
bodhi_zazenI do not mind #ubuntu-beginners as a support channel, but I would suggest you *try* to enhance #ubuntu if you use IRC00:09
duanedesignwhatever if we want to get rid of it fine00:09
IAmNotThatGuymost of the members in -team are not even watching the support channel of our team. Everyone should idle in the support channel too, so that they can help the people with issues (something which you have already solved or you can try googling) and learn00:09
bodhi_zazen+1 IAmNotThatGuy00:09
JoseeAntonioRI think that's the main point. #ubuntu is too noisy for new users, and they can't read/understand what's told.00:10
duanedesignwell if we reduce the mission to guiding people into the community we do not nees #u-b00:10
duanedesignneed*00:10
bodhi_zazen+1 to reducing mission statement00:10
IAmNotThatGuyIf if you don't take a step to enter and 'watch the people'/ 'you doing' help, you are failing to help achieve the BT Mission00:10
bodhi_zazenWe can expand it if the team desires to expand it in the future00:10
IAmNotThatGuyOkay00:10

=== meetingology changed the topic of #ubuntu-meeting to: Final decision about the Team and Focus Groups' Structure .
bodhi_zazenAre any of the FG active ?00:13
duanedesignI think we should get rid of the FG00:13
benonsoftwareNot that I've seen00:13
IAmNotThatGuyUmmm, well, why not give a shot with the vision statement bodhi_zazen ? :]00:13
MrChrisDruifNot that I'm aware of00:13
bodhi_zazenAnyone think we need them ?00:13
duanedesignWe do not really need the structure, whatever it is, that the FG gives00:13
duanedesignWe can still guide people to the appropriate places in the community without the burden of maintaining the FG00:14
IAmNotThatGuyif we are planning to update the vision asn "an entry point to the community" we will need FGs00:14
* benonsoftware has mixed opinions about that00:14

meetingology+0 received from benonsoftware00:14
MrChrisDruifIt was from back in the hay days that they needed some extra structure00:14
JoseeAntonioRWe can abolish FG, but we can still be divided in specialities00:14
IAmNotThatGuy-100:14
meetingology-1 received from IAmNotThatGuy00:14
bodhi_zazenIf you have an idea, present it in -team and build support00:15
bodhi_zazen+100:15
meetingology+1 received from bodhi_zazen00:15
IAmNotThatGuyHowever, we can set a base line to teach people with the help of the FGs :[00:15
bodhi_zazenIf the team is so active so as to be disruptive to activity in -team, then, and only then, make a FG00:15

duanedesignI think instead of funneling people into FG we move them into Documentation Team, MOTU, Bug Control etc00:16
bodhi_zazenIAmNotThatGuy: FG need to be a lot more active00:16
JoseeAntonioRYes, and we should still be 'divided' if that's the correct word in specialities00:16

MrChrisDruifI can't keep up on my phone, I'll leave you guys to it.00:16
bodhi_zazen[topic]Task assignment to people00:16
=== meetingology changed the topic of #ubuntu-meeting to: Task assignment to people
IAmNotThatGuyduanedesign, Is there any mentoring peocess going on in each teams or the people are directly put into contribution and self-learned ?00:16
bodhi_zazenI am not really into assigning tasks00:16
bodhi_zazeneither the team is willing to step up and accomplish / contribute or it should be abolished00:17
duanedesigni think what we can do is say to the user.  If you want to do bugs go to ubuntu-bugs. Then the BT member will be in that channel as well to continue to help the user00:17
duanedesignIAmNotThatGuy: ^00:17
bodhi_zazen+1 duanedesign00:18
Unit193Right, or find another BT member that can "take over" in the sitting in with. (For example, I'd not do much good in a programming channel)00:18
benonsoftwareWhen the time comes could I please quickly say something about the team wiki?00:18
IAmNotThatGuyOkay. I thought of making a proper channel of learning process through BT ;D If e get enough active members, I will put for this idea again ;]00:18
bodhi_zazenany more comments about assignments ?00:19
duanedesignwiki is the big one00:19
bodhi_zazen[topic]wiki00:19
=== meetingology changed the topic of #ubuntu-meeting to: wiki
duanedesignit needs a big update00:19
benonsoftware+100:19
duanedesigni will be happy to work on this on the weekend00:19
JoseeAntonioR+100:19
IAmNotThatGuyI was working on the FG pages. Now I have to stop it, remove and update the main wiki pages :]00:19
benonsoftwareI'm happy to work on it when I have the time (should be most of the week)00:20
bodhi_zazenHow about if we ask the team as the next task to update the wiki00:20
bodhi_zazeneveryone can contribute00:20
IAmNotThatGuyaye00:20
bodhi_zazenuse -team for discussion if needed00:20
bodhi_zazengot to start small, with something you can accomplish00:20
duanedesignIAmNotThatGuy: you can just unlink the pages00:20
bodhi_zazenbuild on success00:20
IAmNotThatGuyduanedesign, okay00:20
duanedesignIAmNotThatGuy: keep them in case they are ever needed again00:20
bodhi_zazenyou can also mark pages for deletion00:21
duanedesignor that :)00:21
duanedesignbenonsoftware: did you want to say something?00:21
benonsoftwareWell, what should we do with the old FG pages?00:21
duanedesigni say for know just remove links to them00:22
bodhi_zazenAsk anyone even remotely interested in the FG to update the page00:22
IAmNotThatGuyokay00:22
bodhi_zazenIf it is not updated within a month -> mark for deletion00:22
bodhi_zazenyou all as a team need to set some mutually agreeable goals and work together to achieve them, or there is no real team00:23
bodhi_zazenstart small00:23
duanedesign+100:24
bodhi_zazendiscuss it among yourselves00:24
bodhi_zazenon -team00:24
bodhi_zazenbuild on success00:24
duanedesignanyone have anything else?00:24
duanedesignthanks bodhi_zazen00:24
bodhi_zazen[topic]open floor00:24
=== meetingology changed the topic of #ubuntu-meeting to: open floor
benonsoftwareNext meeting on the 9th of May?00:25
JoseeAntonioRAnd what about Mentorship? Is it also going to be abolished, or it's going to remain open?00:25
IAmNotThatGuyIs there anyone with any other topics to discuss ?00:25
IAmNotThatGuybenonsoftware, yes00:25
bodhi_zazenJoseeAntonioR: I like all these ideas, if you want to do mentorship => wiki page please00:25
bodhi_zazenand build support on -team00:25
bodhi_zazenI honestly do not think we need meetings00:25
bodhi_zazenmost all of this can be done on -team and a set of wiki pages00:26
duanedesignJoseeAntonioR: currently we do not have a mentorship. Membership in the team is open.00:26
duanedesignJoseeAntonioR: though we could do both i guess. Have an open team and have mentorshps if someone wanted the extra support joining the community00:27
bodhi_zazenWe sort of need the team to build on small accomplishments, then aim for the stars00:27
JoseeAntonioRThen, let's see if someone points to the channel for this, in the case this doesn't happens then it's out of the line.00:27
bodhi_zazenJoseeAntonioR: I am not following you on that00:28
bodhi_zazenYou all have good ideas, but the perception I have is that we need to turn that energy into action00:29
JoseeAntonioRIf not, then it'll stay as idle as it's now00:30
duanedesignyep00:30
bodhi_zazenExactly00:30
IAmNotThatGuytrue00:30
bodhi_zazenthe BT has great potential00:30
bodhi_zazenconvert the potential into action00:30
bodhi_zazenstart small00:30
bodhi_zazenwhich is why the mission statement has contracted00:30
JoseeAntonioRStep by step. We're on the first one, which is setting our goals00:31
bodhi_zazenEveryone wants to support beginners, on #ubuntu-beginners or elsewhere00:31
IAmNotThatGuyokies00:31
bodhi_zazenbut we need to translate that into action00:31
bodhi_zazenAny other comments ?00:32
duanedesigni think reducing the team structure back to the very basics will hopefully help.00:32
bodhi_zazenI HIGHLY suggest ongoing discussions in -team00:32
bodhi_zazenduring the month == time for discussion00:32
duanedesignI think members are confused as to how things work00:32
bodhi_zazenmeetings = make a community decision00:32
duanedesignagreed. All discussion should mostly be done before the meeting00:33
bodhi_zazenSome discussion is acceptable during meetings, but the majority of the discussion needs to happen between meetings00:33
bodhi_zazenExample of what I see as a team effort ...00:33
bodhi_zazenLet us assume IAmNotThatGuy  is interested in improving IRC00:34
bodhi_zazenIAmNotThatGuy: should join #ubuntu and serve as a facilitator to the channel00:34
bodhi_zazenhttp://freenode.net/channel_guidelines.shtml00:35
bodhi_zazenhttp://freenode.net/catalysts.shtml00:35
bodhi_zazenIAmNotThatGuy: then can guide people interested in IRC to participate in IRC00:35
IAmNotThatGuyGotcha00:36
bodhi_zazenIf the channel is too big, people get overwhelmed , use #ubuntu-beginners00:36
bodhi_zazenfine, very valid point00:36
bodhi_zazenwho now will help ?00:36
bodhi_zazenSay JoseeAntonioR is interested in wiki00:36
duanedesignthe $65,000 question00:36
bodhi_zazenJoin wiki team and facilitate new users on wiki00:36
bodhi_zazenWho is willing to help JoseeAntonioR ?00:37
bodhi_zazenand on00:37
bodhi_zazenbuild a team00:37
bodhi_zazenbuild community relations00:37
IAmNotThatGuyduanedesign, why not a 1 billion dollar? ;]00:37
duanedesignhigh roller00:37
duanedesign:)00:37
JoseeAntonioRIt's basically a group/team work. If anyone helps, we will make big, enormous things.00:38
bodhi_zazenteam means you all work together and support eachother00:38
duanedesign+100:38
IAmNotThatGuy_10000:38
IAmNotThatGuyerr +100*00:38
bodhi_zazenstart small, build on success00:38
IAmNotThatGuysure :]00:39
* benonsoftware looks at scroll back :/00:39
Unit193And because you want to do IRC support doesn't really mean you have to be in #ubuntu, #ubuntu-beginners at least, and add whatever DE you also use (#lubuntu or #xubuntu), I personally can't help with 1 Unity question as I've never used it, but I can help with the others.00:40
Unit193But don't just do it in #ubuntu-beginners00:40
IAmNotThatGuyPlus, use google if you don;t know =]00:40
bodhi_zazen+1 Unit19300:41
JoseeAntonioRI agree with that, too.00:41
duanedesignthank you everyone who attended00:41
* duanedesign is going to watch the rest of NCIS :) i will be in -team if anyone needs me00:42
IAmNotThatGuybye duanedesign00:42
benonsoftwareSee ya duanedesign00:42
IAmNotThatGuyAnymore questions or topics to discuss before ending the meeting?00:42
Unit193IAmNotThatGuy: But, quality, not quantity.00:43
bodhi_zazenI am going to have to leave as well00:43
IAmNotThatGuybodhi_zazen, #endmeeting :]00:43

balloonsastraljava, let's have you start us off if you would14:14
astraljavaSure thing. For Studio, we're anxiously waiting for the new lowlatency kernel to land.14:15
astraljavaA couple of other usability bugs are waiting to be squashed, but sadly our court uploader is rather busy atm.14:15
astraljavaJust wrote to our mailing lists a show of hands/discs/usb sticks for RC testing.14:16
astraljavaBut all in all, looking good so far.14:16
astraljavaFor Xubuntu, not much to report.14:16
astraljavaSome minor bugs are being reported every now and again, but nothing to worry about.14:17
astraljava..14:17
balloonsright.. and still shipping 4.814:17
balloonsawesome.. glad to hear things are finishing up nicely14:17
astraljavaYes, and most likely 4.10 won't make it for Q cycle either.14:17
balloonsohh, why's that?14:17
astraljavaIt's slow progress.14:17
astraljavaBut that's purely speculative.14:18
astraljava..14:18
balloonskanliot, care to talk about lubuntu?14:18

balloonskubuntu is going to be sponsored by blue systems, and riddell will continue to support and maintain it in that capacity14:21
balloonsso congrats to them ;-)14:22
astraljava\o/14:22
balloonsfinally, anyone from edubuntu about who cares to give an update?14:22

balloonslast but not least everyone's favorite catch-all bucket14:27
balloonsanything to discuss or mention?14:27
balloonswell, my news is that as gema mentioned, I'll be doing iso testing tomorrow of the daily iso, and then running the checkbox tests, looking for regressions. I will send an email to the list with more instructions.. Further, having folks about to help answer questions for first-timers would be good in #ubuntu-testing (never a bad place to idle)14:29
balloonsthe idea is to do it on thursday until end of month release happens.. so if your not too busy with end of cycle activities, give it a whirl.. it's less pressure than traditionally iso testing, and you can pick what iso and tests to run :-) Every bit helps and happy regression hunting14:31
balloonsthat's it for me14:31
balloonsif no one has anything else, we'll end14:31

infinitydoko: I may need to take your -proposed one and mangle it for -release if we have a 0-hour armhf ld.so change.  I don't want to ship a compiler that generates the wrong PI headers.15:17
slangasekbdmurray: ok.  that doesn't seem like something that's changed recently to cause a bug reporting spike, though?15:18

slangasekideally - none :)15:26
slangasekbut there's always something...15:27
bdmurrayI was thinking of bug 942539 and was wondering if we should implement a hack for that15:27
ubottuLaunchpad bug 942539 in nautilus (Ubuntu) "Ubiquity desktop icon text looks messy" [Medium,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/94253915:27

cjwatsonthe hacks for that aren't translation-safe, AFAIK15:27
barryslangasek: i just set you as approver of https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/foundations-q-python-versions15:28
slangasekcjwatson: could we not batch-update the translations when making the change?15:28
cjwatsoncan't we sit on the desktop team to get that fixed properly? :)15:28
slangasekbarry: ack15:28
cjwatsonslangasek: I mean intrinsically unsafe since we need to determine experimentally how each individual translation wraps, including for each different flavour15:28
slangasekoh15:29
slangasekbdmurray: can you revisit that with seb128?15:29
bdmurraysure15:30
cjwatsonthe only hack we could do that I think is safe would be to remove the version altogether15:30
slangasekand if he's not going to have time (which is likely), maybe ask pitti if someone else on the team can take it15:30
cjwatsonbut UI freeze ...15:30
slangasekcjwatson: well, my assumption had been that if we replace the period with one nautilus handles word breaks for correctly, we could do that in both the English and in translations15:30
cjwatsonoh, well that one is substituted dynamically anyway15:31
slangasekok15:31
slangasekso wouldn't that be translation-safe after all?15:32
slangasekthe bug is simply that nautilus is word-breaking wrong on '.'; we don't really want to micromanage the word-wrapping in general15:32
cjwatsonyeah, that hack probably would be.  Is there a Unicode character with identical appearance to "." which isn't actually U+002E?15:32
cjwatsonI was referring to things like the \n hack15:32
slangasekah yes15:33
slangasekjodh suggested middle-dot, which isn't perfect15:33
slangasekwe could render the whole version number in double-width chars :P15:33
slangasekwell, getting nautilus fixed is obviously still preferred15:34
cjwatsonI really think it should be identical in appearance15:34
slangasekyep15:34
cjwatsonat least in the default font15:34
slangasekI'll take a sweep through Unicode; but we should try to just get nautilus fixed15:35
slangasekoh here we go, U+2493 :P15:35
bdmurrayheh15:36

slangasekanyone know how safe ntfsfix is? :P15:38
slangasekbug log says it's not really15:39
cjwatsonI'm not sure, but I guess I can look at that bug15:39
cjwatsona link may not be the right approach; we may just need to silence the warning some other way15:39
slangasekso I think linking fsck.ntfs is probably the wrong answer15:39
slangasekmountall honors the 'check' field in /etc/fstab, right?15:39
slangaseker, the 'pass' field I mean15:40

ubottuLaunchpad bug 920545 in ntfs-3g (Ubuntu) "[update request] NTFS-3G, new STABLE Version 2012.1.15 [Precise]" [Wishlist,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/92054515:40
cjwatsonyes, that was a fairly routine merge15:40
cjwatsonit didn't add a fsck.ntfs link15:41
slangasekor an implementation that would be worth linking to, presumably15:41
cjwatsonI'm not comfortable enough with my NTFS knowledge to make that decision independently of the Debian maintainer15:42
cjwatsonfor precise, I'd rather just shut up the warning15:42
cjwatsonwe seem to set pass=0 for ntfs, so I guess I can look into it some more15:42
slangasekcjwatson: mountall respects the pass field15:42
cjwatsonit mightn't be unreasonable to special-case ntfs in mountall, so that even if pass is non-zero it won't complain if fsck.* is missing15:42
slangasekso that points to the installer15:42
slangasekor to user error when adding the fstab entry15:43
cjwatsonpartman-basicfilesystems (63ubuntu2) karmic; urgency=low15:43
cjwatson  * Don't check NTFS at boot, since we have no fsck.ntfs right now15:43

slangasekhmm15:43
cjwatsonwe have no upgrade handling for that15:43
slangasektjaalton also reported that this didn't happen in 11.04, strangely15:44
cjwatsonand I'd be more comfortable with a mountall hack than trying to rewrite fstab on upgrade15:44
slangasekfair enough15:44
cjwatsonmaybe something in the mountall stack got stricter15:44
cjwatsonI'm happy to look into this; assigned the bug to myself15:44
bdmurrayokay, thanks15:45
bdmurrayDoes anybody, mvo, know if the apt tasks in bug 659438 are necessary?15:45
ubottuLaunchpad bug 659438 in apt (Ubuntu) "Installation/Removal fails because of package which could not be located (failure in apt.Cache.required_download)" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/65943815:45
bdmurrayit's our hottest bug and the aptdaemon task was recently fixed so it'd be nice to get it off the list15:46
* mvo looks15:46
mvobdmurray: I can't mark it invalid myself, apt times out, but I do believe that the aptdaemon fix is sufficient15:47
bdmurraymvo: okay, I can take care of closing it then15:47
slangasek\o/15:47
slangasekmvo: while you're here... bug #938116 is assigned to you15:48
ubottuLaunchpad bug 938116 in apt (Ubuntu Precise) "update-manager crashed with SIGSEGV in DescriptionList()" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/93811615:48
slangasekmvo: seb128 did it, not me ;)  Are you going to get to that bug for 12.04, or should we have someone else take a look?15:48
mvohm, I have a vague idea what might be causing this, but it requires some serious effort to look deeper, one simple workaround would be to always refresh the cache when software-properties was run and returns a exit-state that indicates that something changes15:50
cjwatsonoh, hey, looking at bug 441242 I see that mvo added support to update-manager to convert people's fstabs15:51
ubottuLaunchpad bug 441242 in update-manager (Ubuntu) "Ubiquity generates bad fstab with NTFS partitions" [Undecided,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/44124215:51
cjwatsonso apparently some deeper issue here15:51
mvoI did? excellent!15:51
mvomaybe there is a bug in that code then? (also it looks like it has a proper test)15:52
cjwatsonI suspect it's something entirely different15:53
cjwatsonwill need to reproduce or something15:53
slangasekbdmurray: any other bugs?15:55
bdmurrayslangasek: not today15:55
slangasekmvo: can you stash that workaround suggestion on the bug, and we can run with it?15:55
