ochosihi everyone, what's the correct way of forking a launchpad-bzr-repo into a new project? (link to a bzr project or pull it and then push it to the new repo?)07:13
wgrantochosi: Are you sure you want to create a whole new project, and not just a branch in the existing one?07:21
ochosiwgrant: well specifically i want to create a project for xubuntu's greeter (lightdm), which will be a fork of unity-greeter07:22
wgrantochosi: Have you talked to the unity-greeter devs to check that you can't support both with a single codebase?07:23
ochosiwgrant: i can't imagine that they would like to replace gnome-settings-daemon with something else :)07:25
wgrantochosi: You should really talk to them before forking.07:26
wgrantForking rarely helps anybody, so it should be avoided whereever possible.07:26
ochosii agree, i'll talk to them07:27
wgrantHowever, in the unlikely event that you do actually want to fork, you'll want to create a new project and just push the branch up.07:27
wgrantNo need to link it through LP.07:28
ochosi"they" are mostly robert_ancell i guess, no?07:28
wgrantProbably, yes :)07:28
wgrantProbably mterry too, but I'm not really sure these days.07:28
ochosiok07:28
ochosiwgrant: to be honest i'm not the dev who should develop the greeter, i'm just mitigating that process. so i really wouldn't know if gnome-settings-daemon can be replaced in unity-greeter07:35
ochosiwgrant: haha, i just realized that i already sent an email to robert about that and he replied:07:40
ochosi> Were not going to modify Unity greeter to support different use cases,07:40
ochosi> as we want to be able to quickly adapt it in it's current form.  A07:40
ochosi;)07:40
ochosi> forked version however shouldn't be too hard to keep in sync if you were07:40
ochosi> willing to maintain it.07:40

alo21can someone follow me on hoe merge a branch, please?12:24
zygahey, is launchpad just going down?12:56
wgrantzyga: No. Why?13:00
zygawgrant, I just got a few fail pages with links to uptime / social microblogging13:00
zygawgrant, but it seems to be operating properly now13:01
sagacithat's normal :P13:01
wgrantErm13:01
wgrantThat's never meant to happen.13:01
wgrantOutside the 10:00-10:05 UTC downtime window13:01
sagaciit seems like when you request 50 translations or submit the same, it's often a coin flip on whether it'll actually process13:02
wgrantsagaci: That timeout page is different from the one zyga mentioned.13:04
zygaright, I don't recall seeing that page normally13:04
zygaif that's relevant I was requesting https://launchpad.net/~zkrynicki13:04
wgrantOne of our appserver instances is apparently having DB connection trouble.13:05

mb21Helllo, I'm trying to use the RestAPI (not using python) to get a collection of bugs for a specific project. But my project (https://api.launchpad.net/1.0/slg) doesn't have a collection_link listed. Is this not possible..? thanks13:49
dobeymb21: that seems correct according to https://launchpad.net/+apidoc/1.0.html#project13:56
mb21@dobey thanks for replying! so you're saying it doesn't seem possible?13:57
dobeymb21: you'd need to do a searchTasks() call on the project to get a but_task collection13:57
dobeybug_task even13:58
dobeymb21: i'm saying there is no documented field for a bug_task collection in a project entry.13:58
dobeymb21: the only way i see to get it is to use the project entry's searchTasks()13:58
dobeymb21: also what language are you using?13:59
mb21okay, so something like https://api.launchpad.net/1.0/slg?ws.op=searchTasks&...14:00
dobeyright14:01
mb21atm i'm trying to get it working with curl on the command line14:01
dobeyprobably not the best way to test. doing oauth with command line curl isn't exactly trivial :)14:02
mb21well, for now i'm using only get request.. but you're right, i'll have to switch soon :)14:04
mb21oh, https://api.launchpad.net/1.0/slg?ws.op=searchTasks actually seems already to do the trick and list me my bugs!14:04
dobeyright, well, it won't list any private bugs unless you're authenticated :)14:05
dobeyauthentication isn't only for writing, but is also needed for many read operations as well, to verify permissions with14:06
mb21right.. guess i'll have to dive into oauth then.. thanks a lot so far!14:07

george_eI have a project with a single branch. I would like to create a second branch for the Debian packaging but I don't want the branch linked to the code branch. How would I go about doing this?15:39
