mhall119people are doing very innovative things with lenses12:46
mhall119I love it12:46
czajkowskiaye tis really cool to see12:46
Pendulummhall119: it's supposed to be 90 with a decent amount of humidity today. This is not normal. And for me it's not good :-/13:03

mhall119Pendulum: yeah, especially up north where people consider A/C "optional"13:04

dakerdholbach, yep13:05
Pendulummhall119: it's also mid-April. I can't remember it ever being this hot this early13:05

Pendulummhall119: I'm brainstorming places with a/c that don't require me to stay upright (either seated or standing). We need more places in the US where it's okay to lounge ;-)13:19
mhall119Pendulum: yeah, despite having so many places called "lounges"13:23
mhall119Pendulum: you can always just go spend the day at the Mattress Factory "trying out" the beds13:23
PendulumI was thinking of that. Not sure they'd appreciate my normal 14:30 crash where I can't wake up for a while, though ;-)13:26

czajkowskidpm: ello would you know how I could check this out or if the team should in fact be active? https://answers.launchpad.net/launchpad/+question/19380713:57
dpmhi czajkowski, what I usually do in these cases is to check that they've actually contacted the current team owner, and if they can provide evidence that they have and the owner is unresponsive, I ask a LOSA to reassign ownership to the person interested in leading the team14:19

greg-ghah, this diff really isn't very helpful at all http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~sabdfl/ubuntu-codeofconduct/v2-draft/revision/1715:57
dholbachgreg-g, even a wdiff is not particularly helpful16:26
dholbachthe CoC contained a lot of duplication when the LCoC got merged in16:26
greg-gdholbach: do you know if there is a summary of the changes, other than "tighten it up a bit" ? :)16:33
dholbachgreg-g, the diversity statement got added and the LCoC was merged in, plus some generalisations + crispification16:33
greg-g"crispification" I'm going to use that in the future16:34
cprofittyeah... crispification is a cool word16:35
czajkowskiit had grown to over 200 lines and wasn't very easy t read now it reads a lot better16:36
czajkowskishorter sentences ++16:36
greg-gI'm all for crispification :) but like I said on the loco-contacts mailing list, comparing how things are phrased is important. Phrasing gives a document its 'feel'.16:38
cprofittgreg-g: you would rather read both the new one as a complete non-diff version?16:40
cprofittI suspect a diff or the original vs. its current form would look a great deal like v17 that you commented on.16:41
dholbachgreg-g, http://paste.ubuntu.com/932765/ or http://paste.ubuntu.com/932767/16:42
dholbachthe diff is almost useless16:42
greg-gactually, that diff is useful to me, it shows me which things weren't touched and which words were removed16:43
greg-git is terribly messy, but, there's a ton of changes that were made16:44
dholbachwhenever you rephrase a section to "crisp" it, it will look like something was removed16:45
dholbachbut yeah16:45
dholbachenjoy the diff :)16:45
greg-gyeah, all I'm saying is that crisping can sometimes lose nuance (almost by definition) and nuance is sometimes important (not always). I mean, I'm coming at this with my work day hat on, which is all lawyers and politicians ;)16:45
czajkowskigreg-g: remove the hat16:46
czajkowskiit's been a long day have a beer16:46
czajkowski:)16:46
dholbachyeah, removing the hat will help ;-)16:46
dholbachto me it's very much the same in spirit16:47
greg-gczajkowski: it just started! ;) I really wish I could!16:47

paultagbodhi_zazen: I'm just here to note my extreme protest against the new CoC :)19:20
nothingspecialhi paultag19:20
paultagwaiting in here in case someone who had a hand in it shows up19:20
paultaghey nothingspecial19:20
paultagbodhi_zazen: how's things?19:20
paultag(you too, hobgoblin)19:21
hobgoblingood thanks19:21
paultag(also you nothingspecial)19:21
bodhi_zazenwhat new CoC ?19:21
pleia2paultag: happy birthday! (is it your real birthday or just your facebook birthday?)19:21
paultagbodhi_zazen: the new CoC that was proposed w/ Nazi-germany "Unity" clause19:21
* bodhi_zazen beats paultag with CoC19:21
paultagpleia2: It's my real birthday, thanks! :)19:21
pleia2what's the "Unity" clause?19:21
nothingspecialgood thanks paultag19:21
paultagpleia2: Decisiveness has value in itself19:22
paultagpleia2: where if I badmouth us having Unity by default, I'm in violation of the CoC19:22
bodhi_zazenDo you have a link paultag ?19:22
paultagpleia2: in personal or public discussion19:22
paultagbodhi_zazen: yeah, one sec19:22
pleia2paultag: I think it's more referring to the type of thing that caused Ubuntu to be created (sarge was stable for 3 years)19:22
paultagpleia2: if you read it, me saying Ubuntu was a bad decision is in violation19:22
pleia2I think we're reading it very differently19:23
marcoceppipaultag: I think you're taking that clause to the extreme a bit19:23
paultaghttp://bazaar.launchpad.net/~dholbach/ubuntu-codeofconduct/v2-draft/view/head:/MergedCodeOfConduct.txt19:23
marcoceppiIt says you can disagree, just be respectful.19:23
paultagIt says if I debate the issue, it's against the CoC19:23
pleia2marcoceppi: +119:23
paultageven if that debate is civil19:23
pleia2paultag: I don't see that part19:23
paultaghose who do the work make the decisions and we do not expect to19:24
paultagdelay, debate or discuss any decision after the fact19:24
pleia2and it wouldn't make any sense anyway19:24
paultagthe point remains, strictly, I'd be in violation19:24
paultagI don't take such things lightly, I'd like to be able to comply with the CoC19:24
paultagif you could modify that to add constructive or respectful, I'd be fine19:25
marcoceppipaultag: are you running around littering the internet with snide one-off remarks like "unity sucks"19:25
paultagmarcoceppi: does it matter?19:25
pleia2paultag: did you send feedback to czajkowski?19:25
paultagif I did, it'd be gainst the CoC19:25
marcoceppiyes, because that's not constructive in any way19:25
paultagpleia2: yes, and I came here in the case it needed to be discussed real-time19:25
pleia2paultag: can you please tell us what portion exactly says you can't civilly disagree so I don't need to wait for her to add it to the wiki?19:25
paultagI vehemently oppose this clause, because a bunch of people made a bad decision and don't want to hear critisim anymore19:25
pleia2I am terribly confused :(19:26
paultagpleia2: Decisiveness has value in itself.19:26
bodhi_zazenhey paultag , I can see you feel passionately about this, slow down a bit, I am still reading the document ;)19:26
pleia2I have no idea how you can read so much into it19:26
paultagbodhi_zazen: :)19:26
paultagpleia2: if you read it, it's pretty clear19:26
paultagit says, don't debate it unless you debate it to a higher council19:27
pleia2"Decisiveness has value in itself." does not mean "you can never debate anything"19:27
pleia2where does it say that?19:27
paultagThose who do the work make the decisions and we do not expect to19:27
paultagdelay, debate or discuss any decision after the fact, except through19:27
paultagescalation to a more senior governance body19:27
paultagit's right there, it's very clear19:27
bodhi_zazenpaultag: how would you like that section to read ? pastebin a revision ;)19:27
paultagbodhi_zazen: I don't want to spend my time cleaning up a mess, I'd just like to be able to stay an Ubuntu member19:28
pleia2ok, that should be softened since "no debate ever" was not our intention19:28
paultagI didn't see an issue with the first CoC19:28
bodhi_zazenThe project sort of needs to be able to discuss / debate an issue, make a decision, and move forward19:28
paultagpleia2: it should, because that reads like an edict from the third reich19:28
paultagfrankly19:28
pleia2there is no need to go to that level :(19:28
pleia2it's really hurtful19:28
paultag(I could be thrown out for that comment if this passed)19:28
marcoceppipaultag: So you don't want to make it better, just tell people they're wrong? Or am I misreading your statement19:29
bodhi_zazenI sort of tire of the "Unity sucks" threads on the forums, but we do not take action unless they cross the line and read like personal insults19:29
paultagwich is part of be respectful19:29
cprofittI am fairly 'lawerly' when it comes to looking at things paultag ... and I see that as saying... we can have disagreements, but we can not allow them to persist and fester.19:29
beunooh yay!  comparison to the nazis has already started19:29
beunowas hoping I didn't miss it19:29
marcoceppibeuno: second time in 10 mins :)19:29
paultagmarcoceppi: I've been contributing to Debian, and to Ubuntu indirectly. I don't care to come back just yet, but I have taken pride in the 4-5 years I've spent here.19:30
cprofittthe fact that this long after Unity's adoption that we are still coloring any decision by that fact is an example of 'fester'19:30
paultagpleia2: a fix to that section (or it's removal and implicit inclusion via be respectful) would be great19:30
pleia2paultag: please try to submit some better wording instead of calling the CC Nazis, I'm very upset right now :(19:30
marcoceppiNot to mention, if you don't like Unity there has been a great deal of progress on a "fallback" session that operates like Gnome 2 classic. Why not channel your energy and time into that project?19:31
pleia2like seriously, I am very very upset19:31
paultagpleia2: I didn't, I called this similar to an edict from the third reich19:31
Pici...19:31
paultagI never insult people personally19:31
beunoI don't think it should be removed, although certainly reworded19:31
beunoit's an important message to not add to much negativity to each decision being made19:31
beunoparalyzing things more and more19:31
beunoit's not healthy19:32
bodhi_zazenpaultag: you have made your point, people will listen, you willing to try to help with the wording ?19:32
bodhi_zazenIf not, give them a chance19:32
pleia2we don't have some evil plan in mind to destroy the community, we truly are trying to do our best19:32
beunowe also don't want to kill 20 million people, so I don't know19:32
bodhi_zazenand come back after the next revision19:32
bodhi_zazenwithout guns blazing19:32
paultagpleia2: I understand that, and I respect you lots, as you know19:32
paultagpleia2: but I can't stand the idea of being thrown out because I disagree19:32
paultagIn it's current form, I can not sign it.19:32
PiciI don't agree with paultag's wording of the issue, but I think that the document could use a little help in that section.19:32
pleia2paultag: please understand, we opened up discussion to make this work for the community, being so defensive and aggressive is not needed, we want discussion19:33
beunoand more importantly, it makes your point less likely to be heard19:33
pleia2suggest a change and say why it's an issue, we don't need these cruel comparisons to understand19:33
nigelbpaultag: You know what, you should propose an MP with better wording.19:33
paultagpleia2: I'm really not happy! To me it looked like someone was trying to sneak a clause in to quell dislike of bad decisions19:33
cprofittcertainly the very fact that it was put out for public comment is a sign that the community is taken seriously... I look forward to suggestions on how to improve it. As communities grow they will hit hurdles... we need to get to the hurdle and jump it... not stumble and fall. As a community we can do that if we offer constructive comments and suggestions.19:33
pleia2paultag: if that was the case we wouldn't have specifically asked for feedback19:33
paultagpleia2: I understand19:34
mhall119wow, welcome back paultag19:35
paultagmhall119: I didn't intend to be back, tbh19:35
mhall119you never left our hearts :)19:35
paultagmhall119: ♥19:35
mhall119even if you think we're CoC nazis19:36
paultag:)19:36
paultagthe names in here have changed a bit, which is nice to see19:36
mhall119paultag: that clause, to me, reads "Don't hate people for making a decision when a decision had to be made"19:36
paultagmhall119: to me, it's if you don't agree, you'll be in violation of the CoC19:37
paultagor rather, if you don't agree and say something19:37
cjohnstonI don't read it the way paultag does, but I can understand it reading that way19:37
mhall119or, read another way "JFDI is good, even when you don't specifically agree with what was JF-done"19:37
paultagmhall119: I wish it was just "Don't disrupt the community because of a descision you disagree with" or something19:37
paultagit's clearly not the sort of thing where you may not debate this in public or private (as noted as to how the CoC applies)19:38
pleia2paultag: have you seen the discussions about init on the debian lists lately (and over the past 5 years)? It's addressing that sort of thing19:38
mhall119paultag: how can the wording be changed to clarify that disagreement is okay, but complaining when decision makers make decisions is not19:38
pleia2I agree that it needs some rewording19:38
paultagmhall119: I really don't want to sit down and try to fix something I didn't think was broken, but so long as I can object and make my views known, and not get thrown out, I'm happy.19:38
mhall119paultag: to me it's there to encourage people to make decisions without worrying about being attacked for it19:38
paultagsince this does apply to any interaction I have in public or private with anyone who knows I'm an Ubuntu'er19:39
bodhi_zazenI think you made your point paultag , come back after then next revision then, without guns blazing19:41
paultagI'm a bit heated, sure. I understand the way I presented this is over the line, but that's the point.19:41
paultagFWIW, I still love all y'all. ♥19:41
pleia2<319:42
pleia2it's really not a conspiracy, the CC is still mostly community members who are doing our best19:42
nigelbexcept for mark :P19:43
pleia2Unity never even came up in any of the discussions I was part of regarding the CoC changes, honestly most of it was about integrating the LCoC19:43
paultagpleia2: I understand where it's coming from, but I really don't like the idea of an uninforced clause that can be selectively enforced in evil-deamon-X took over someone who made such calls19:43
pleia2I assure you this is why we opened things up for discussion :)19:44
paultagI thought most of this was implicit under be respectful19:44
pleia2obviously we didn't read it the same way you did or think it could be applied in the way you described19:44
paultagpleia2: I've been wrist deep in copyright law for the last 6 months, I'm starting to speak lawyer19:44
pleia2hah19:45
nigelblol19:45
paultag(sadly not kidding)19:45
nigelbpaultag: we can still understand you. Try harder.19:45
pleia2you know, there is a reason we don't like lawyers ;)19:45
paultaghopefully, you'll end up not liking me, but having a changed CoC ;)19:45
