IdleOneI'm curious, jono posts the links to the google hangouts. Does that mean anybody is welcome to join in/listen in?19:03
cjohnstonI was thinkin the same thing19:03
jonoIdleOne, no, these are private meetings19:03
IdleOneI see.19:03
IdleOneshame.19:03
jonoIdleOne, I keep my 1-on-1 calls with the team private so we are free discuss any matters19:04
IdleOneit would be interesting to sit in, without interrupting of course, to a team meeting sometime19:04
jonoIdleOne, sure, maybe we can do this for one of our Wed meetings19:04
jonoour team meetings19:05
jcastro\o/19:05
jcastroinsta-transparency via google hangouts, ftw.19:05
IdleOnejono: understandable, there may be subjects that you or one of the team does not want public.19:05
jonojcastro, well, yes and no19:05
jonotransparency is always good, but sometimes a team needs to bond in a private environment19:05
cjohnstonit has to render so it's semi-insta  hehe19:05
jonowhich is the purpose of the wed meetings19:05
jonothe Tues IRC meetings are the public meetings19:05
cjohnstonwhat you guys do in private....19:05
jonocjohnston, we talk about various things19:06
jonooften company-confidential content19:06
cjohnstonnot where I was headed :-P19:06
jonoteam-related stuff etc19:06
jcastrojono: right, I meant withing reason, we should certainly keep my getting yelled at private19:06
jcastro:p19:06
jonolulz19:06
jonoCASTRO!19:06
jonoCASTRO!19:06
jonoSTOP IT!19:06
jono:-)19:06
cjohnstonmaybe do the tuesday meetings on hangouts on air so that we can see faces, give your updates, and then answer any questions that come from irc19:06
jcastro"LOL I CAN PIPE DEADMAUS RIGHT INTO THE MEETING."19:06
IdleOnejono: I would expect that a public team meeting would be somewhat homogenized :)19:07
snap-lNah, I think you all should do the meetings completely in public19:07
jcastrocjohnston: yeah that's exactly what I want to do, but some people like IRC.19:07
jonocjohnston, I would prefer that19:07
jcastrosome people who are old school19:07
jonopersonally I don't like IRC meetings19:07
jcastroand I wouldn't want to shame their old school ness19:07
jcastrohis name is Daniel19:07
snap-lso people can realize there's a lot of boring shit that occurs during these meetings that they really don't care about.19:07
jonosnap-l, indeed19:07
cjohnstonwe do ours on air, but we don't do the 'live ask questions part'19:07
* jcastro shoves dholbach under a bus19:07
pleia2it's tricky to grep through hangouts afterwards to find thing ;)19:07
pleia2things19:07
jonopleia2, this is true19:08
jonothe logging of IRC is handy19:08
IdleOnejono: so why not do the irc meeting in hangout and record it, that way the logs can still be published19:08
snap-lJust have jono do a transcription. ;)19:08
cjohnstonwell, someone could post on their blog the hangout19:08
jonoI wonder whether the team member summaries are particularly useful19:08
jcastrohmm19:08
jcastrohey19:08
jonoIdleOne, eh?19:08
IdleOneah, pleia2 answered my question19:08
cjohnstonto an extent..19:08
jcastrohow about, video for the meeting, but publishing notes for grepness19:08
IdleOnethat sounds good too19:08
jonojcastro, who will write the notes?19:08
jonojcastro, well volunteered!19:09
pleia2humans aren't so good at writing meeting notes19:09
jcastrohaha19:09
* IdleOne goes back to idle19:09
jonopleia2, agreed19:09
jcastroI'm much better at taking notes than pasting in IRC sentences19:09
cjohnstonjono: you mis-wrote your sentence as a question, "jcastro will write the notes"19:09
jonoput it this way, I am not writing meeting notes, if you want to do it, jcastro, go ahead :-)19:09
jonocjohnston, :-)19:09
cjohnstonI'd rather read not so good human written notes than IRC logs19:09
pleia2IRC meetings (or notes) I can skim through at work, if everything moves to hangouts I'll neer watch the videos (can't do it quickly, can't do it at work)19:09
jcastrohey, all my TODO is public, I have a living notetaker19:09
jonomaybe the community can take notes?19:10
jonoso we do the hangout and others can take notes?19:10
jonothe team will busy enough preparing their summaries without taking notes19:10
cjohnstonI think notes would quicly fall away..19:10
IdleOneagreed ^19:10
jonocjohnston, very possibly19:10
jcastroI am wondering if people even read the existing notes19:10
jcastroI wouldn't19:10
jcastro"jorge and jono arguing about metal, daniel rolls eyes."19:11
cjohnstonmaybe make the summaries the notes.. same thing as IRC, but slightly different... then maybe if there are important questions that get asked, add them19:11
jcastroright, more of a summary than a point for point.19:11
jcastro"The team talked about the app contest at 4:45 into the discussion. Main points, foo, bar, baz."19:11
cjohnstoncompiling all of the summaries wouldn't be too much work19:11
jonoI like the idea of doing hangouts19:11
jonoand I think of folks can take note and publish them for the community then this will work19:12
jonoif the community cares about notes, then I am sure our community can self organize to take them19:12
balloonsjono et la, people do this for podcasts quite successfully19:12
jonoparticularly if G+ is considered more interesting than IRC19:12
pleia2mhall119: I'm going to be out of town this week (actually leave tuesday night, but super busy until then), can you join #ubuntu-classroom-backstage when you have the schedule for workshops available and nudge people to get it added to the calendar?19:12
jonoalso, we would still record the hangouts on youtube19:12
jcastroI am kind of surprised google doesn't do auto closed captioning, etc.19:12
jcastrothat would solve the problem nicely19:12
jonojcastro, indeed19:12
czajkowskithis is what one of our squads do, a public summary of their meeting http://codesinger.blogspot.co.uk/2012/07/yellow-squad-weekly-retrospective.html19:13
jonook, so next week lets maybe try this19:13
jonotomorrow I needed to cancel the meeting for another one19:13
balloonsjcastro, http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2009/11/automatic-captions-in-youtube.html19:14
jonobrb, lunch19:14
jcastroI am for/pro anything that doesn't include the wiki19:16
balloonspretty funny results: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Idfnk68Eo28.. watch it with cc on :-)19:16
jcastrobkerensa: ping19:17
jcastrobkerensa: please check your hp account and check to see if it's enabled/free19:17
jcastroalso, lmk if they sent you a mail19:17
czajkowskijcastro: you're so anti irc/wiki though you're the other extreme :(19:18
jcastroI'm not anti wiki/irc, I'm just pro better tools. :)19:19
snap-lWikis are a pain19:19
czajkowskijcastro: anti :)19:19
snap-lThey're out of date the moment you hit submit19:19
jcastroballoons: hey can you check your HP Cloud account?19:30
jcastrothe one you mailed me the creds with19:30
jcastroand see if you can use it and the stuff says 0 for cost.19:30
balloonssur19:30
bkerensajcastro: nope I am not enabled19:31
jcastrobkerensa: k19:33
balloonsjcastro, were should I see "free"?19:33
jcastroI think it should just not be charging you19:33
jcastrosigh, I was hoping they would send everyone emails19:34
bkerensajcastro: they have a chat agent and I asked him to check their backend and he said that my account bills at the normal rate19:35
bkerensajcastro: he said something about if this is marked a free account its noted in the billing19:35
balloonsjcastro, I can spawn instances, heh19:35
jcastroI am pretty sure they work19:35
jcastroit's whether they charge you that I am not sure of19:35
jcastroimbrandon: and yours shows up as free?19:36
bkerensajcastro: ahh the guy just check he said http://h20a64e3977ba79ad14ba0fcf39ac26a4.cdn.hpcloudsvc.com/ABM_Request.docx19:37
bkerensathat I would need to fill that out first19:37
jcastrowe've done all that already19:38
imbrandonjcastro: yup so far19:38
imbrandonjcastro: it said 67$ charge -67$ adjustment19:38
imbrandonjcastro: ^^19:38
jcastrook, that's what I thought19:39
jcastrook so they tell me if we have any problems to just ping them19:40
jcastroand they went off of our list19:40
jcastroso I'll just send you all emails19:40
bkerensahuh19:41
* bkerensa will spawn up a instance and run it 19:41
jonomhall119, what was that Django page you linked me to about manage.py commands again?19:47
jonomhall119, nm, got it19:49
jonothanks19:49
jcastroballoons: lmk when you've got some awesome QA thing running on it doing Science(tm) for Mankind19:52
balloonsjcastro, yes I can mess with it this week if it's ready to roll19:52
balloonsthanks for helping get this rolling!19:53
mhall119jono: np19:55
jonomhall119, do you have to do anything special to register a subcommand?19:59
jonoother than ensuring the app is in INSTALLED_APPs19:59
jonoand creating the dirs in the app dir?20:00
jonomanagement/commands20:00
cjohnstonis there an __init__.py in the management and commands directories?20:00
jonocjohnston, that was what I was missing20:00
jonothanks cjohnston20:00
cjohnston:-)20:01
mhall119what cjohnston  said :)20:04
bkerensajcastro: so Josee reached out to me and Brian Murray about a Q+A.... Brian asked me what this was about ?20:05
bkerensaDo you know by chance? :P20:05
jcastroprobably ubuntu on air20:05
jcastrough20:42
jcastrois it really 4:45 already20:42
jcastromy inbox looks like a car wreck20:43
bkerensafiltering for the win?20:43
bkerensa:D20:43
jcastrotoo bad filtering doesn't respond for me either20:44
bkerensatrue20:45
mhall119bkerensa: we're doing some Q+A support workshops tomorrow21:00
bkerensamhall119: that sounds fun :)21:00
mhall119http://developer.ubuntu.com/showdown/workshops/21:00
mhall119it's for the last week of the app developer showdown21:00
bkerensacool I will pass it along to people :)21:01
jonomhall119, does this make sense:21:16
jonoi = Failures(failuretype=FailureTypes.objects.get(id=id), date=item_date, share_id=item_share_id, user=item_username, accom_id=item_accom_id, summary=item_summary)21:16
jonoI am getting an integrity error on the failuretype field21:17
jonothat it can't be NULL21:17
jonomy get() returns the correct object21:17
mhall119jono: try failuretype_id=id instead21:23
* mhall119 assumes you're calling i.save() whhich throws the integrity error21:24
jonoI am calling i.save()21:25
jonomhall119, what is the issue here?21:26
jonothe value I pass to failuretype seems to be the correct type21:26
jonolet me pastebin it21:26
mhall119please21:26
jonomhall119, http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/1072056/21:27
mhall119jono: can you pastebin (or link to) your models.py?21:28
jonomhall119, sure21:29
jonomhall119, http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/1072059/21:29
mhall119and 'f' is not None?21:30
jonomhall119, f is:21:30
jonomhall119, the type is: <class 'dashboard.models.FailureTypes'>21:31
jonowhen I just print f it says 'worker' which is what it is21:31
mhall119and what's the exact error?21:32
jonodjango.db.utils.IntegrityError: dashboard_failures.type may not be NULL21:33
mhall119hmmm21:34
mhall119did you change from 'type' to 'failuretype' in your Failures model by any chance?21:34
mhall119I mean, did you rename a field in Failures from 'type' to 'failuretype'?21:35
jonomhall119, hmmm not sure21:36
jonoI will recreate my db21:36
mhall119if so, and if you did this after running syncdb, the problem is that your database still has the old column name, you'll need to drop the table and re-syncdb it (or drop the whole database and re-syncdb it)21:36
jonoaha!21:37
jononow it works21:37
jonobut now I get this error when I look at the failures table in the admin:21:38
jonocoercing to Unicode: need string or buffer, datetime.datetime found21:38
jonoit looks like my datetime is not getting formatted correctly21:38
jonoas I am passing it a string21:38
jonomhall119, do you know how to convert the string into a datetime it will be happy with?21:38
mhall119you'll need to convert your argument from a string to a datetime21:38
popeyjono, when my son was born, I solicited names from #lugradio21:39
mhall119jono: http://docs.python.org/library/datetime.html#datetime.datetime.strptime21:39
jonopopey, heh21:40
mhall119use http://docs.python.org/library/datetime.html#strftime-strptime-behavior to determine what your format string should be (it'll  depend on what you want people passing on the commandline)21:40
mhall119popey: and we're all happy that you didn't name him "GNU/MicrosoftSucks Pope"21:41
popeyhah21:41
popeywell, i did tell them that given my surname is Pope, I wanted his initials to be something nerdy21:41
popeylike http, ftp...21:41
mhall119:P21:41
popeywith p as the last initial there's a lot of scope21:42
popeyhe's SMP21:42
popeymy wife didn't know this was orchestrated21:42
mhall119I think jono can one-up you on cheesy naming options21:42
popeyI'm ARP, so me and him and nice and nerdy together :D21:42
jonomhall119, what is the format I pass to strptime?21:42
popeymhall119, managed to get my lens working :D21:43
popeygoing to enter the showdown \o/21:43
popeycompetition looks strong!21:43
jonooh I see I think21:45
mhall119jono: it depends on what you're sending on the commandline21:46
jonomhall119, got it working21:47
jonothanks21:47
mhall119if you're sending "2012-07-02" you want "%Y-%m-%d"21:47
jonomhall119, odd I am still getting an error in the admin21:51
jonoCaught TypeError while rendering: coercing to Unicode: need string or buffer, datetime.datetime found21:55
