ajmitchjono: so are there restrictions on arb members entering this competition? :)00:45
ajmitchapart from a lack of spare time00:45
jonoajmitch, no, go ahead :-)02:19
ajmitchoh good, though I'm dubious if I'll have a decent amount of time to implement what I want02:21
dholbachgood morning07:01
ajmitchmorning dholbach07:03
dholbachhey ajmitch07:03
dholbachajmitch, I found http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~dholbach/ubuntu-app-reviews/cooking-lens/revision/2 very depressing08:15
dholbach(the amount of stuff which needed to change)08:15
dholbachit's not like pkgme could have dealt with this easily08:15
ajmitchsorry about that08:15
dholbachno no08:15
dholbachit's not your fault :)08:15
dholbachit looks like quickly + pkgme will need to get taught about extras and stuff08:16
ajmitchwe're sort of limited in what we can accept outside /opt08:16
dholbachyeah, I know08:17
* ajmitch wants an easy way to not have file collisions, things like arkose using overlayfs are great for standalone apps but not for lenses that need to extend another package in the archive08:26
dholbachone thing I wasn't sure about with the lens above was if it should suggest or enhance gourmet or something08:26
ajmitchgourmet is the scope?08:27
ajmitchlens can suggest scopes, scopes should enhance lenses imo08:27
dholbachno, gourmet is a separate package08:27
ajmitchright08:28
* ajmitch looks it up08:28
dholbachall cooking scopes+lens are in the same package08:28
ajmitchsame binary package?08:28
dholbachyes08:29
ajmitchthey're probably related enough that it's the preferred option08:29
ajmitchhow do they relate to gourmet?08:29
dholbachI'm not 100% sure08:30
dholbachah yes, the gourmet scope watches out for ~/.gourmet/recipes.db08:31
dholbachso we could suggest it - still the lens will be useful without it08:31
ajmitchyeah, a suggests sounds enough08:32
dholbachI think I should get another espresso08:32
dholbachthe suggests was already in there08:32
ajmitch:)08:32
dholbachnevermind then08:32
dholbachla lala la08:32
* ajmitch hugs dholbach :)08:32
dholbachso as far as I'm concerned the package is ready :)08:32
ajmitchexcellent :)08:33
* ajmitch spotted a wikipedia lens in the list to be looked at as well... :)08:33
dpmajmitch, there are a few apps that I've spotted that would make sense to move to the CA team queue:10:40
dpmhttps://myapps.developer.ubuntu.com/dev/apps/79110:41
dpmMuktware manual: a PDF, so doesn't qualify as an ARB app10:41
dholbachajmitch, highvoltage, wendar, stgraber: how do I put an app I worked on up for team review?10:42
dpmhttps://myapps.developer.ubuntu.com/dev/apps/757/10:42
dpmHandbrake: too big an app (need to check if it comes from the real upstream)10:42
dpmhttps://myapps.developer.ubuntu.com/dev/apps/950/10:44
dpmOpsView Core: too big an app too10:44
dpmI'll move them to the CA queue10:44
dholbachI updated https://myapps.developer.ubuntu.com/dev/apps/987/feedback/ - was that the right thing to do?10:49
dholbachhow can it be moved to another queue?10:49
ajmitchdpm: ok, thank you10:51
* ajmitch moved the full circle submission over, but hadn't got around to the others yet10:51
ajmitchdholbach: it needed to be done on the review page, with the 'need more info' button10:52
dholbachhum10:52
* ajmitch logs in to see if he can move it10:53
dholbachok10:53
dpmajmitch, no worries, I've moved 2 of them, and for Handbrake I'll request more info, as I'm not sure the submitter is associated in any way with upstream10:53
ajmitchdpm: that was the impression I got as well10:54
ajmitchthe skype language pack, it's another one that looked like it was probably just content, and for a non-free app at that10:54
dpmajmitch, do you think it makes sense to swap queues for it, or reject it?10:56
ajmitchprobably swap queues, if it's something that might be useful to people10:57
ajmitchI don't know if the CA team likes having free apps to work on or not :)10:57
dpmthey package them, yes11:01
dpmhttps://myapps.developer.ubuntu.com/dev/apps/958/11:01
dpmAnother PDF I'll send their way ^11:01
ajmitchyep11:01
dholbachhttps://myapps.developer.ubuntu.com/dev/apps/930/ has license proprietary11:01
ajmitchso you suggest that for free apps that are rather large, like https://myapps.developer.ubuntu.com/dev/apps/921/, that I push them to the commercial queue?11:02
ajmitchdholbach: interesting, that shouldn't be able to go into the ARB queue11:02
dholbachthey submitted a .deb anyway11:03
ajmitchyeah, that's common for any license :)11:03
dholbachhttps://myapps.developer.ubuntu.com/dev/apps/921/ is huge and a binary tarball - probably not suited for the ARB anyway11:03
ajmitchit's huge because it's a rather large eclipse addon, so would be hard to package properly11:03
dholbachyeah, it should probably be rejected11:04
dpmhas the askubuntu lens been uploaded? It's got 3 votes already11:05
ajmitchdpm: yes, and marked as published in the arb queue11:06
dpmajmitch, it seems it's still marked as pending review: https://myapps.developer.ubuntu.com/dev/apps/815/11:07
ajmitchhm11:07
ajmitch2 submissions for it11:07
ajmitchhttps://myapps.developer.ubuntu.com/dev/apps/505/ is published11:07
dpmsorry, review in progres, I meant11:07
dpmajmitch, is there any way to mark https://myapps.developer.ubuntu.com/dev/apps/815/ as published, though? That's the version of the latest maintainer, if I'm not mistaken11:09
ajmitchyeah I'm trying to do that now11:09
dpmcool :)11:09
ajmitchok, it shows as published now11:10
dpmexcellent, another one off the queue!11:10
* ajmitch didn't spot the 2nd one there11:10
ajmitchthanks for doing the queue cleanup, btw :)11:10
dpmno worries, happy to help the little I can :)11:13
dpmajmitch, cielak wanted to publish https://myapps.developer.ubuntu.com/dev/apps/589/ in Precise, and I told him to resubmit. He said you were working on the Precise version. What are the next steps for this one? Are we waiting on his resubmission or are we good to go?11:18
ajmitchwe're waiting on votes, see the mailing list11:19
ajmitchit's probably about time I sent out another ping for votes11:20
dpmah, yeah, I had missed that11:20
ajmitchsame with sshsearch lens11:20
ajmitchthere are a couple of others I'll try & get to this weekend & beg for votes on :)11:21
dpmyes, it might make sense to send a friendly reminders already11:21
dpmajmitch, https://myapps.developer.ubuntu.com/dev/apps/654/ looks like a very cool, but complex app, shall I move it to the CA queue?11:21
ajmitchat a glance it didn't look overly complex, it just didn't build when initially submitted11:21
ajmitchstill a fair bit of code, but as a game I think it was manageable, just needed the /opt love11:22
dpmok11:23
dpmhttps://myapps.developer.ubuntu.com/dev/apps/236/ - that one can be marked as published, right?11:23
* ajmitch needs a good place to write some of these reviewer comments11:23
ajmitchI saw that one tonight, and was going to check the version in extras vs what the author has11:24
ajmitchif it needs an update, we need to do it, but I know it was published at one point11:24
ajmitchby the version numbers, I think it needs an update (and tedious re-vote, etc)11:25
dpmok, that's weird, though. I thought once published, the Published state was sticky and new uploads only appeared as pending change requests in the main queue page. MyApps weirdness...11:27
ajmitchit confuses me still11:27
dpmthis guy seems to be submitting stuff on behalf of the upstream authors, but I suspect without their knowledge: https://myapps.developer.ubuntu.com/dev/apps/988/11:28
ajmitchok, I wasn't sure whether there was any relationship with upstream or not, I'd downloaded it to have a look at it11:29
dpmI requested info11:31
ajmitchthanks, I'm not great at explaining myself in those requests ;)11:31
dpmajmitch, ah, I see what happened with this app: https://myapps.developer.ubuntu.com/dev/apps/236/feedback/ - you're right, the author submitted a new version after it got published. The reason the status didn't stay sticky as Published is because it was never set as Published. In any case, nothing to worry about. How do app updates work? Do they need to be re-voted too?11:36
dpmah, from what you're saying above, it seems re-vote is needed11:37
ajmitchfrom what I understand, yes11:37
dpmoh, a Quickly app! https://myapps.developer.ubuntu.com/dev/apps/947/11:40
ajmitchwe do have some11:42
dpmajmitch, what do you think we should do with these? Is pending QA the right status? I think it would make sense to mark the first one as Published and the rest as Pending Review: https://myapps.developer.ubuntu.com/dev/arb/?state=QAPending11:55
dpmwhat do you think?11:55
* ajmitch saw wendar had updated the music scopes in the staging PPA a few days ago11:59
ajmitchit's just gone midnight here, I won't be around for long :)11:59
ajmitchI *think* the first one has been published for precise12:00
dpmdholbach, do you think it might make sense to update rmadison from the ubuntu-dev-tools to check on extras.u.c as well? It would be very useful in these cases, I think12:01
dholbachprobably12:01
ajmitchyou can just check the PPA on launchpad.net/~app-review-board12:01
dpmI thought it had been published in Precise, but apparently it hasn't - https://launchpad.net/~app-review-board/+archive/ppa?field.series_filter=precise12:03
ajmitchI'll need to check the history for why that got missed, I swear there were more than those published for precise :)12:03
ajmitchthere's a thread from april about it, there were issues with desktopcouch12:04
ajmitchremind me to chase that up tomorrow12:04
dpmok, thanks ajmitch :)12:04
dholbachbrb12:05
dholbachit'd be great if somebody could review https://myapps.developer.ubuntu.com/dev/apps/959/12:08
dholbachI pushed a branch with a few small changes12:09
dholbachas far as I can see are the -vm, -cooking and -wikipedia lens all ready for vote now12:10
dholbachand with that I should probably head out for lunch :)12:10
ajmitchdholbach: would check them out, but need sleep. please remind me about them tomorrow & I'll vote on them :)12:12
ajmitch& thank you for working on them :)12:12
dholbachno worries12:13
dholbachthey were all low hanging fruit12:13
dholbachand the good news is: there's more in the queue :-D12:13
ajmitchyippee12:13
ajmitchok, good night :)12:14
dholbachgood night12:14
dholbachhighvoltage, stgraber, wendar: if you have a bit of time and can have a look at the -vm, -cooking and -wikipedia lenses, that'd be sweet12:14
malinajmitch: installed and tested my app yet?19:45
