stgraberThe first deadline listed for 12.04.1 is on the 2nd of August, so nothing to be extremely worried about just yet.14:05
seb128do we need to get the channel topic changed this way? it's taking 5 lines of backlog every time and making the meeting log hard to follow14:05
argeso/  what would be the timeframe to get things uploaded into -proposed for it to land in main by then14:05
stgraberseb128: I don't particularly like it, but I kind of like meetingology doing the meeting notes, so I have to live with it ;)14:06
seb128arges, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PrecisePangolin/ReleaseSchedule has the schedule14:07
seb128arges, early august14:08
argesseb128, gotcha14:08
stgraberarges: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PointReleaseProcess gives some more details on that but assuming you can make sure the SRU gets verified as soon as it lands, anything that lands before August should be good, after that, it's going to get trickier14:08
argesok thanks14:08

stokachui've set some bugs to be nominated for precise, when that happens ill target 12.04.1 milestone14:11
stgraberok, let me quickly accept the nomination then14:11
stokachuthe last 3 need more work than the rest and could possibly be rejected for 12.04.114:12
skaethttps://jenkins.qa.ubuntu.com/view/Precise/view/All%20Precise/  <-- link to precise daily run results.14:12
* xnox 0/ ready with the fs plan for a discussion on how sensible it is, probably towards the end of the meeting, before AOB14:12
stgraberstokachu: nominations accepted14:13
stokachustgraber: thanks, ill go through and target milestones after meeting14:13
argesstgraber, stokachu : i can help with the targeting too14:13
seb128stokachu, you probably want appmenu-gtk multiarched, that's an issue coming frequently in user comments and bugs14:14
seb128stokachu, i.e better to not reject it if possible14:14
stokachuseb128: ok, ill add that to my priority list to get fixed14:14
stokachui think its *half* complete14:14
stgraberany other bugs that aren't on the current lists and should be worked on for 12.04.1?14:14
seb128stokachu, thanks14:14
seb128stgraber, stokachu: on multiarch issue I think somebody should check on bug #885492, gnome-keyring14:15
stokachuyes ive got three more14:15
ubottuLaunchpad bug 885492 in gnome-keyring (Ubuntu) "p11-kit: couldn't load module: /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/pkcs11/gnome-keyring-pkcs11.so" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/88549214:15
stokachujust came in14:15
seb128that seems to come often as well14:15
stokachuseb128: ill get that added to list14:15
seb128thanks14:15
stokachuim supposed to be finishing up the multiarch stuff14:15
stokachuSo i havent actually reviewed these ones yet, they just came in14:16
stokachuhttps://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lightdm/+bug/97253714:16
ubottuLaunchpad bug 972537 in lightdm (Ubuntu) "lightdm doesn't allow expired passwords" [Undecided,Confirmed]14:16
stokachuhttps://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt/+bug/22678014:16
ubottuLaunchpad bug 226780 in apt (Ubuntu) "apt-key net-update does not obey APT::Acquire::http::Proxy" [Medium,Triaged]14:16
stokachuthe second one i need to backport the timeout in apt-key14:16
stgraberstokachu: let me know if you need review and sponsoring to quantal and precise-proposed14:17
stokachuoh wait different bug14:17
stokachustgraber: this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt/+bug/226780 needs nomination approval14:17
ubottuLaunchpad bug 226780 in apt (Ubuntu) "apt-key net-update does not obey APT::Acquire::http::Proxy" [Medium,Triaged]14:17
argesstgraber, for these bugs, whats the best way to get your attention for review/sponsoring?14:17
stgraberstokachu: that lightdm seems pretty annoying for corporate deployments, sounds like a good candidate for the point release indeed14:17
stgraberarges: easiest way is to ping me on IRC, you can also go through the official sponsoring process but as I'm interested in these bugs anyway, I'm happy to do the review directly14:18
stokachustgraber: could you approve the lightdm for precise as well?14:19
argesstgraber, ok thanks.14:19
seb128stokachu, I approved it14:19
stokachuthanks seb12814:20
stgraberI'm guessing seb128, smoser, NCommander and jamespage can also help with the uploads14:20
jamespagestgraber, yep14:20
seb128what uploads?14:20
seb128sponsoring you mean?14:20
stokachuyea me and arges would need sponsors14:21
stgraberseb128: yes, review + sponsoring of the changes stokachu and arges are working on14:21
seb128oh14:21
seb128yeah, feel free to ping me for any desktop upload14:21
stokachucould i kindly ask sponsors to monitor the 12.04.1 milestone :D14:21
seb128or just subscribe ubuntu-sponsors, I review the queue regularly for desktop uploads14:21
stokachuseb128: ok ill have 2 bugs for you soon as I talk to a coworker14:21
seb128stokachu, great14:21
stgraberwould probably be nice if we could have a report of the 12.04.1 milestone listing all the bugs that have one of "patch attached", "branch linked", "fixed in development release"14:22
stokachuarges: ^14:23
stokachu:D14:23
stgraberthat'd basically list most "easy" bugs that are just waiting for someone to cherry-pick and upload (or just sponsor if it's a debdiff/packaging branch)14:23
stokachuagreed14:23
jamespagestgraber, we've been using a SRU report for the server team packages that could be extended todo that14:23
jamespagehttp://people.canonical.com/~jamespage/server-sru/precise-sru.html14:23
argesstokachu, ack14:23
jamespageATM its just used for assessing candidates and monitoring SRU progress14:24
xnoxsponsorship page has (sru) tags, but not sure if it lists 12.04.1 explicitly14:24
stgraberxnox: right, and it assumes that someone subscribed sponsor to it, which isn't always the case when the bug is fixed in quantal but not in precise-updates14:25
xnoxi see14:25
stokachui wish we had 1 application to generate all these reports :D14:25
stgraberso can anyone take an action of getting some basic report for 12.04.1 online?14:25
stokachuxmarks laughs at me during bookmark s yncs14:25
stokachustgraber: i think arges agreed to do it14:26
argesstokachu, ssh don't tell everybody....  ok i'll do it14:26
xnoxstokachu: ultimate-debian-database has a lot of queriable bugs. maybe ubuntuwire can be consulted in those.14:26

xnoxstokachu: apparently it's like spin the wheel, cause you won!14:29
seb128stokachu, you are first, you figure it out!14:29
stgraberhehe, right. skaet suggested we have a quick roundtable to know what people have been up to regarding 12.04.1/SRU work for the past two weeks14:30
seb128stokachu, make something good from it ;-)14:30
* xnox shall talk about fs stuff then?!14:30
stokachuha.. first things first.. i wore pants today14:30
seb128is that unusual? don't feel like you have to get overdressed for those meetings :p14:30
stgraberso if you need help with somehting you're working on for 12.04.1, it's the right time to ask ;)14:31
stgraberxnox: yep, that'd be the right time to mention that14:31
stokachuWe (SEG) have a pretty good idea of what needs SRU's and those that need more attention to get into SRU state. Once we have a compiled list for target milestone we will triage out the work to rest of team to get handled14:31

seb128GNOME 3.4.2 updates are mostly in, there is no formal 3.4.3 planned so at this point we mostly cherry pick fixes14:35
seb128if you have any bugs that we should look at which is not milestoned let me know14:36
seb128otherwise we have steady flow on fixes uploaded, SRU team is having an hard time to review things in time14:36

xnoxany questions?!14:41

stokachuxnox: in 20 words or less can you describe the increasing velocity of a flying elephant against highwinds and in the winter?!?14:42
xnoxstokachu: it's fairly constant14:42
stokachunice!14:42
skaet:)14:43
stgraberxnox: I'll need to look, but I believe the new iscsi stack fixes some pretty nasty bugs we had in oneiric and precise (when your root fs is on iscsi)14:43
* xnox takes a note to look into iscsi stack14:43
stgraberxnox: I worked around these in oneiric (by not starting the iscsi client daemon when / is on iscsi) but remember seeing bug activity that the new upstream fixes that and we should now be able to start the daemon without lossing access to /14:43
xnoxwell fedora shipped the 'new' scsi / kernel stack14:43
* xnox wonders if iscsi is server's team responsibility or the foundations. me knows little about iscsi, unless I have to dive into that....14:45
stgraberxnox: the workaround was for bug 838809 and that caused bug 96111414:45

* xnox jamespage: yes please14:47
stgraberI've mostly been helping doing sru verification, looking at any >= 7 days item in the queue and trying to follow the testcases to get the in -updates14:47
stgraberthat's been working quite well, unblocking quite a few SRUs. It's really painful for these that were pushed before the test case became a requirement though14:47
stokachucould we get help from QA on the SRU test cases portion?14:48
xnoxstokachu: as far as I know QA does QA of the development release / automatation. not SRUs.14:48
stgraberthere are also a few that seem to be stuck as nobody can actually confirm that they work. IIRC one is a bug that pretty much never happens (weird race condition) and another bug requires a new build of gfxboot + media in a weird language to check that the fix works (problem being, the language in question was never mentioned in the bug)14:49
stokachuxnox: that makes me sad14:49
seb128whoever fixed the bug probably has that info?14:49
stgraberjibel: can you maybe comment on what QA is doing/planning to do for 12.04.1?14:49
seb128well I don't think we have so many SRUS that we need QA help14:49
seb128it usually takes 5 minutes to follow the verification steps14:50
stgraberseb128: in gfxboot's case, no, because the "fix" is a LP translation refresh done by cjwatson, we need the reporter to re-test in their environment14:50
seb128I tend to do the desktop ones and we never got blocked so far14:50
xnoxwell precise daily images are being spinned and tested, as far as I know.14:50
stgraberxnox: not with -proposed14:51
stokachutested as far as just installation and booting?14:51
jibelwe do install testing of dailies, daily upgrade testing, we will do milestone testing for Ubuntu and can help with SRU verification on demand.14:52

stgraberFirst thing, does this meeting format work for you?14:53

stokachulol14:54
stgraberxnox: well, you have two weeks to write some down ;)14:54
seb128stgraber, https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-translators/2012-April/005367.html14:54
skaetfine for me.14:55
seb128stgraber, that's the gfxboot bug14:55
seb128stgraber, we should probably apply the "diff looks sane, no visible regression" rule for it14:55
stgraberseb128: cool! with that it should be pretty easy to test. Yeah, that was my fallback option, just ensure that the diff is indeed just a translation refresh and mark it verification-done14:55
seb128stgraber, the meeting format works for me as well14:55
argesyes14:56
stokachuanyone considered transifex.net for localization on Ubuntu?14:56
=== med_ is now known as med_out
seb128stokachu, do you keep the list of bugs you want to see fixed somewhere? or do you just milestone them the standard way?14:57
=== med_out is now known as med_away
=== med_away is now known as med_
stokachuseb128: so far we've milestoned them14:57
seb128stokachu, no, we have launchpad translations14:57
seb128stokachu, why would we change for something less integrated to ubuntu?14:57
xnoxstokachu: we have launchpad rossetta translations which are shared translations from all open-source projects with compatible licenses14:57
stokachuseb128: arges will have a report generated of the ones that need to be completed and those waiting on sponsorship etc14:57
seb128stokachu, ok14:57
stgraberI'll update the wiki and send the minutes to ubuntu-devel and ubuntu-release. If you have anything else to discuss before our next meeting, use the ubuntu-release mailing list.14:57
xnoxstokachu: but launchpad generates languages statistics like that14:58
stokachuah cool14:58
argesyup,14:58
xnoxand it's not sponsorship, but approval needed, updated translations, released14:58
stokachucool, simple enough :D14:59
* arges writes that in his copy book.14:59
xnoxstokachu: launchpad is the only thing that suggest translations from other packages such that you get a consistent translation across the whole desktop.14:59
xnox..14:59
xnoxAAOB?14:59
stgraberwell, we're out of time. Thanks everyone for attending and see you all in two weeks!14:59

* xnox thank you all15:00
cjwatsonstgraber: Oh, I can do the gfxboot case, I've just been meaning to get around to sorting out images suitably built from -proposed15:00
stgrabercjwatson: that'd be great15:02
seb128thanks15:03
seb128stokachu, what's the issue with libdbusmenu multiarching?15:04
seb128i.e why bug #859512 just won a precise line?15:04
ubottuLaunchpad bug 859512 in libdbusmenu (Ubuntu Precise) "Please convert libdbusmenu to multiarch" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/85951215:04
seb128stgraber, ^15:04
stokachuseb128: i think this is just being marked to make sure its included with point release15:05
stokachuin addition to appmenu-gtk multiarch fixes15:05
seb128stokachu, I though libdusmenu was multiarched before precise?15:06
seb128stokachu, https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libdbusmenu/0.5.0-1ubuntu115:06
stokachuseb128: does this bug need to be closed then?15:07
seb128stokachu, well, I'm asking why it just got reopen, it was closed15:08
seb128stgraber, just opened a precise component for it follow what you said in the meeting I guess?15:09
stgraberseb128: yeah, I just accepted the nomination for all the bugs stokachu listed15:09
stokachuseb128: maybe i messed up somewhere15:09
stokachuseb128: can you re-close that bug then and we can remove it from sru list?15:20
seb128stokachu, where is the SRU list?15:22
stokachuseb128: sorry i meant the 12.04.1 milestone list on LP15:23
seb128stokachu, url?15:24
seb128stokachu, the milestones list should only list open bugs15:24
seb128stokachu, i.e that bug is closed it shouldn't have ever been on the list?15:25
stokachuseb128: ok we're good then15:25
stokachuseb128: i double checked and its not listed15:25
stokachuseb128: sorry my multitasking is sub par atm15:27
seb128stokachu, no worry15:34

on3_g<o/ dholbach16:00
RiddellKubuntu meeting in #kubuntu-devel if anyone is here for it16:01
dholbachRiddell, oh sorry - is #ubuntu-meeting usually booked for the Kubuntu meeting at this time?16:01
Riddelldholbach: no I failed to do any booking16:01
dholbachyeah, we haven't finally agreed on meeting times which is why it's not on the Fridge yet, but it looked empty, so we went ahead :)16:02
dholbachcoolbhavi, on3_g: maybe we just start and see who else hops in16:02

dholbachit seems the agenda is pretty much the same as last time: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/Meetings16:03
dholbachbut we can use that to catch up on the things we talked last time16:03
dholbach#topic meeting times16:03
=== meetingology changed the topic of #ubuntu-meeting to: meeting times
dholbachso the last time we said this:16:03
dholbachProposals: either keep time 16 UTC (every 2nd/4th Thursday), or use old16:03
dholbachMOTU meeting times: alternate between 4 UTC, 12 UTC and 20 UTC, or use16:03
dholbachthe RMB meeting times: alternate between 12 UTC and 22 UTC.16:03
dholbachI started a separate thread on the motu mailing list and it'd be good if everybody weighed in with their personal preference16:04
dholbachcoolbhavi, particularly for you I could imagine that other times than 16 UTC might work better :)16:04
dholbachI guess I'll send a reminder to the list about it again16:05
dholbachOk, let's move on - the list will probably the best place to discuss it16:05
dholbach#topic MOTU School (Bhavani Shankar)16:05
=== meetingology changed the topic of #ubuntu-meeting to: MOTU School (Bhavani Shankar)
coolbhavidholbach, this time works for me most times except few times :) 16 UTC or earlier :)16:05
LaneyI'd try to turn up at any reasonable UK time16:05
Laneybut wouldn't get out of bed :P16:06
dholbachcoolbhavi, ^ do you have updates on the MOTU school sessions?16:06
dholbachLaney, that's always a good place for meetings ;-)16:06
coolbhavidholbach, sent out a doodle poll16:06
dholbachcoolbhavi, did you send it to the motu list as well?16:06
coolbhavion the proposed number and the sessions... Will post it to the list today got stuck16:07
coolbhaviwith other work16:07
coolbhavisorry for that16:07
dholbachcoolbhavi, don't worry - if you send it to the list we should be fine :)16:08
coolbhavisure dholbach16:08
dholbachgreat16:08
dholbachcoolbhavi, did you have a chat with bobweaver or did he get in touch with you?16:09
dholbachhe wanted to give a session already16:09
statiko/ sorry i'm late16:09
dholbachhey statik16:09
dholbachcoolbhavi, also it might be worth writing up some kind of quick announcement text we can reuse for these sessions - I can help with getting it on the fridge or the ubuntu classroom blog16:10
coolbhavidholbach, no but a member called joseph got in touch with me sure ll do that16:11
dholbachah yes16:11
dholbachperfect16:11
dholbachif anyone has any suggestions or would like to volunteer for a motu school session, please get in touch with coolbhavi16:11
coolbhavill mail bob today btw16:11
dholbachexcellent16:11
dholbachalright, let's move on to the next point :)16:12
dholbach#topic Review MOTU/FAQ/New_Draft (Bhavani Shankar)16:12
=== meetingology changed the topic of #ubuntu-meeting to: Review MOTU/FAQ/New_Draft (Bhavani Shankar)
dholbachcoolbhavi is definitely dominating the agenda today :)16:12
dholbachcoolbhavi, did anyone get in touch with you about the draft?16:12
coolbhavidholbach, :-) unfortunately on list I got no response16:12
coolbhaviso I wanted to mail again this weekend16:13
dholbachperfect16:13
dholbachI think if we can mix and match old and new content it should be fine16:13
dholbachthere are surely some parts which can be borrowed from the old page :)16:14
coolbhavidholbach, yes a bit of editing would do good most of old page still has valuable content16:14
dholbachperfect16:15
dholbachalright16:15
dholbachit seems like the rest of the agenda is only 'fixed' agenda items - does anyone have anything else they wanted to bring up?16:15
vibhavumm16:15
vibhavAbout the MOTU school16:15
dholbachhi vibhav16:16
coolbhavivibhav, hey16:16
vibhavI think it might be better if the MOTU who is taking the school seesion conducts a poll on which topic should be covered16:16
vibhavhi dholbach16:16
Laney\o16:17
dholbachvibhav, we have in the past conducted a couple of these polls16:17
vibhavdholbach: How were the results?16:17
dholbachhttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/School and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/School/Requests might be useful content to review16:17
vibhavI mean ah, didn't know that16:18
dholbachno worries - these wiki page are not exactly easy to find :)16:18
vibhavThat is the point16:18
vibhavWe should make the wiki pages more easy to find16:19
dholbachbut yeah, it's not exactly front-facing content :)16:19
dholbachbut it might help making decision which sessions to give16:20
vibhavyup16:20
vibhavSocial Networks, at this point, might be usefull16:20
dholbachvibhav, but if you want, you could maybe write an email or microblog about it and solicit some feedback on packaging training sessions16:20
vibhavsure16:20
dholbachthat'd be awesome16:20
coolbhavidholbach, two days back  in d-a-t meeting we discussed about g+ hangouts16:21
coolbhavi:)16:21
vibhavIll ask jono about integrating some MOTU stuff in Ubuntu Acomplishments16:21
vibhavEncouraging new Developers16:21
dholbachah yes, that's nice ideas16:21
dholbachso with some additional mailing list posts and some microblogging I hope we can get some more ideas, so we can probably just leave the item on the agenda page for next time16:22
dholbachLaney, you had something to discuss as well?16:22
LaneyI just thought I would mention that Kubuntu is going to Universe imminently16:23
Laneyand they have some particular conventions that they would like people to follow16:23
Laneymainly pushing to some special branches16:24
Laneyshould we let people know?16:24
vibhavyup16:24
coolbhavidholbach, do u think d-a-t might help in providing pointers in here as in encouraging new developers?16:24
dholbachLaney, do you know if that's documented or mentioned somewhere?16:24
Laneyperhaps Riddell or ScottK know more16:24
ScottKKubuntu is going to Universe.16:25
vibhavThough it might be bit offtopic, but I think that a16:25
vibhavMOTU mascot is needed16:25
ScottKPeople just need to pay attention to the VCS info in the packages.16:25
coolbhavivibhav, mascot as in?16:26
vibhav(But that would make it a bit childish, so never mind :) )16:26
RiddellLaney: the vcs lines are in debian/control16:26
dholbachcoolbhavi, vibhav: can we talk about this in a bit?16:26
vibhavsure16:26
dholbachlet's talk about Kubuntu first16:26
dholbachthanks16:26
Riddellanother kubuntu convention is not to make upstream changes unless there's a clear route to it getting upstream16:26
Laneythere are a lot of Vcs lines in debian/control that Ubuntu developers ignore16:27
vibhavyes16:27
dholbachRiddell, have you considered bringing this up on a mailing list or blog post somewhere?16:27
dholbachu-d-a might be even a good place for this16:27
Riddelldholbach: not thought about it no16:27
* ScottK would have thought it was reasonably obvious.16:28
* ScottK doesn't touch Xubuntu stuff without talking to Xuubntu people first.16:28
vibhavIve observed some ubuntu-deltas with the vcs links still of debain instead of the bazaar vcs links16:28
dholbachI think it's important enough - and would provide everybody with an update of what's going on in Kubuntu16:28
vibhavI agree with dholbach16:28
vibhavExplaining what universe actaully is might be the first step towards this16:29
dholbachare any other big changes with regard to Kubuntu en route?16:29
Riddelldholbach: not currently, the business side is waiting on canonical to sort out the trademark agreement16:30
* dholbach nods16:30
Riddellotherwise it's business as usual16:30
dholbachbut the universe move is already happening?16:30
ScottKYes.16:30
Riddelldholbach: I believe cjwatson is on the case as we type16:30
ScottKImminent.16:30
dholbachok, cool16:30
ScottKIt depends on if his coffee is large enoug.16:30
dholbachI hope this will play out posivitely for Kubuntu.16:31
vibhavWe will also need to assure people that Kubuntu has not been discontinued16:31
vibhavor is dead16:31
cjwatsonI think I may need a second coffee for it.16:32
micahgI don't think anyone has that opinion16:32
dholbachOk, if that's all in terms of Kubuntu, I guess we can move on. Thanks a lot for the update in any case.16:32
LaneyI think it's interesting for MOTU, and that there are also things that people need to be aware of.16:33
LaneyThat's all I wanted to raise.16:33
Riddelldholbach: if you see any powerful canonical people do get them to nudge steve george into doing the agreement16:33
dholbachYes, thanks for that - I knew that the change was about to happen, but didn't know when.16:33
cjwatsonI've checked that the CD images seem to be building with universe now, and I've checked all the archive scripts I can think of to make sure they won't explode16:33
cjwatsonThen component-mismatches looks like it'll do this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1041070/16:34
vibhavDoes this mean, one can no longer install commercial apps in Kubuntu?16:35
cjwatsonSo I need to sit and think about how sane all that is16:35
cjwatsonvibhav: Totally unrelated16:35
vibhavexcuse me, I got a bit confused16:35
Laneylet's keep it related to MOTU.16:35
vibhavyeah sure16:36
vibhavsorry :(16:36
dholbachok, in that case - let's move on16:37
dholbachvibhav, you wanted to bring up the idea of a mascot - as I know this has been talked about in the past a couple of times, I would suggest you flesh out a concrete idea and submit it to the mailing list first - because we spent a lot of IRC hours on the topic already :)16:38
AnAnt_Hello16:38
vibhavyup16:38
dholbachhi AnAnt_16:38
AnAnt_sory for being late16:38
dholbachAnAnt_, no worries - maybe somebody can give you the logs of what we talked about up until now16:38
dholbachLooking at the agenda, I don't have much from the Developer Advisory Team to report, but the next agenda item might be good to talk about16:39
AnAnt_ok16:39
dholbach#topic https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment/BugFixingInitiative16:39
=== meetingology changed the topic of #ubuntu-meeting to: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment/BugFixingInitiative
dholbachAndrew Starr-Bochicchio and I had a stab at updating it for the bug fixing initiative for the next two weeks16:39
dholbachso I'd appreciate if you could take a look at it and say what you think about it16:40
dholbachor if you have suggestions for new small tasks we could offer to new contributors16:40
vibhavhmm...let me see16:40
dholbachI was quite happy with the typo-in-package-description-in-ubuntu-packages one, as some came up with fixes very quickly and for some it was their first interaction with the ubuntu development process and the ones I talked to enjoyed it16:41
dholbachI plan to announce the initiative on monday and also blog about the contributors from the fixes which already went in16:41
vibhav"Correcting VCS links for Ubuntu Deltas"16:41
ScottKIs that really worth the trouble?16:41
vibhavnope, but still baby steps for new contributors16:42
* coolbhavi just mailed doodle poll on MOTU school to the list16:42
ScottKPart of motivating new people is that their contributions feel useful.16:43
ScottKDon't make the stuff too obviously make work.16:43
* vibhav slaps forhead16:43
dholbachScottK, is there anything you'd suggest?16:44
dholbachor any feedback on the page? :)16:44
* ScottK looks16:44
vibhavThe page looks perfect to me16:44
vibhavIt includes all the ways I started with MOTU contribution16:45
ScottKMissing man pages?16:45
dholbachah yes, that might work16:46
dholbachwe'd need to point to some good documentation16:46
Laneyhttp://lintian.ubuntuwire.org/quantal/tags.html16:46
Laneythere must be some stuff in there16:46
dholbachand how to get them included in the top-most upstream project :)16:46
micahgvibhav: in most cases, the Vcs links don't need correcting, it's either lp:ubuntu/foo or specified, and certainly isn't worth an upload to add XS-Debian-*16:47
dholbachmaybe we could check if there's "home-grown" packages where we could add man pages and add these as a task for new contributors16:47
AnAnt_ah, tags !16:47
dholbachand for more experienced contributors add the step of forwarding the manpages to an upstream project?16:47
AnAnt_I mean adding deb tags16:47
AnAnt_I mean adding deb tags to packages16:47
ScottKhttp://lintian.ubuntuwire.org/quantal/tags/debhelper-but-no-misc-depends.html for packages that have an Ubuntu diff might be good.16:47
ScottKThey can submit the diff to Debian too for those that are in Debian.16:48
AnAnt_adding deb tags is maybe not packaging work, but it is a good contribution I think16:48
vibhavfixing lintian errors is one of the best ways to get started with MOTU imho16:48
Laneyhttp://lintian.ubuntuwire.org/quantal/tags/brace-expansion-in-debhelper-config-file.html16:48
AnAnt_debtags.alioth.debian.org/16:49
dholbachScottK, Laney: both good ideas - would you mind adding them to the page? I then could try to find a way to easily filter out packages which are only in Ubuntu, so we could separate the two groups of packages16:49
dholbachAnAnt_, are there good instructions for debtags at the page or is there a list for tags which are currently requested or wanted?16:50
ScottKdholbach: I'm multitasking about three ways right now, so no.16:50
dholbachScottK, I know the feeling16:50
AnAnt_dholbach: yes, it can be done on the website itself, one selects from a list of existing tabs for each package16:51
dholbachAnAnt_, I think it's a nice idea - could you imagine adding a couple of sentences to the wiki page about the effort?16:51
AnAnt_dholbach: this one https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/Meetings ?16:52
dholbachah no, sorry16:52
dholbachhttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment/BugFixingInitiative16:52
AnAnt_ok16:52
AnAnt_hmmm, it isn't really related to BugFixing16:53
dholbachgreat - this should give us heaps of tasks for new contributors in the next two weeks :)16:53
LaneyI added something16:53
dholbachthanks a lot Laney16:53
dholbachScottK, I noted down your idea, so I'll see if I can do about it tomorrow16:53
Laneyit might not be very new-contributor friendly, so somebody should proof read16:53
dholbachI have another meeting after this one and then need to head out16:53
dholbachLaney, if it's too hard, we could just move it to the "intermediate" section or however we want to call it :)16:54
Laneyok16:55
LaneyI meant my wording :P16:55
dholbachAnAnt_, it might still be a nice introduction - even if it's a tiny little bit unrelated - it's still worthwhile :)16:55
Laneybut I see your point also16:55
dholbachhaha ok16:55
dholbachI'll take a look at it tomorrow16:55
AnAnt_ok16:55
dholbachok, we have 5 minutes left - is there anything else we should talk about?16:55
dholbachI don't mind doing the minutes, but I'll do them tomorrow, and for the next meeting and meeting chair we'll wait on the results of the discussion on the mailing list16:56
dholbachIf there's nothing more, I'd like to thank all of you for coming - keep up the good work! :-)16:56
AnAnt_thanks16:57
