ailo-wgood morning Europe. Good night America06:32
ailo-wAnd maybe HK hasn't come home from school yet?06:37
ailo-wWould anyone like to volunteer for updating this page? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/Cases/UbuntuStudio08:26
smartboyhwLet me finish my publishing one first:)08:33
ailo-wIt was last updated 2008. I'm sure there is something there that is worth08:38
smartboyhwWell but then now balloons is planning to rewrite testcases in a standard form + distro special items08:40
smartboyhwSo ailo-w: I'm not sure we should update it08:40
ailo-wsmartboyhw: Who is balloons?08:56
ailo-wsmartboyhw: We need a special testcase for Ubuntu Studio08:56
smartboyhwailo-w: Oh you don't know. balloons is Nicholas Skaggs, the Canoncial QA guy responsible for community testing:)09:00
smartboyhwAnyway I will contact him for special testcase writing09:00
ailo-wsmartboyhw: He's of course not responsible for Ubuntu Studio test cases09:28
smartboyhwI know he's the coordinator ailo-w09:28
smartboyhwFor ALL flavors09:28
ailo-wsmartboyhw: What we need to consider is what we can use from generic test cases, such as those for Ubuntu and Xubuntu, whether we need to use those at all, and what we should add of what is specific to Ubuntu Studio09:28
ailo-wsmartboyhw: He's not responsible for what is specific for Ubuntu Studio09:29
ailo-wWe are09:29
smartboyhwI know then who gonna write it?09:29
ailo-wsmartboyhw: Anyone here09:29
smartboyhwGrrrrr09:30
ailo-wastraljava1: You veru busy? I know you were wanting to handle Ubuntu Studio testing QA09:30
ailo-wvery*09:30
smartboyhwailo-w: He's busy for three weeks... I can't seem to find him either09:31
ailo-wsmartboyhw: I'm working on Ubuntu Studio developer docs, and will write about testing myself, something that I have not dealt with yet, unless someone else volunteers to do that part09:31
smartboyhwOK then you write the testcase ailo-w:)09:32
ailo-wsmartboyhw: I'm doing all of this https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuStudio/DeveloperDocumentation. Just looking for some help on specific items09:33
* smartboyhw is looking at it09:33
smartboyhwThat is big work:)09:34
smartboyhwailo-w: So er what can I help then?09:35
ailo-wsmartboyhw: I was just suggesting test cases, since you were mostly interested about that09:36
smartboyhwOh alright:)09:36
ailo-wTime for lunch. bbl09:37
smartboyhwbbl09:37
smartboyhwOops that's quick09:37

Laneyhey21:08
LaneyI was trying to fix your seeds to reflect the ubuntu-default-settings → ubuntu-settings rename, but I can't push to the branch21:09
Laneydoes someone here want to take care of that? :-)21:09
holsteinlen-dt: ailo ping ^21:14
holsteinLaney: lemms see if i can find someone who can do that21:15
Laneytry micahg ;)21:15
holsteini think len-dt can too21:15
holsteinscottL can, but he's not here right now21:15
ailoI have yet not done any of that, so I don't even know if I as -dev am able21:16
ailolen-dt would know21:16
ailoOr Scott21:16
ailoAnd micahg, of course21:16
Laneyyou can update the seed branch if you are in -dev21:16
ailoLaney: If you can give me a step by step, I can do it right away (I presume it's fairly simple)21:17
ailoI have so far not dealt with bzr much at all21:17
Laneyin desktop in ubuntustudio.quantal, change ubuntu-default-settings to ubuntu-settings21:17
Laneycommit with an appropriate message ("desktop: renamed ubuntu-default-settings to ubuntu-settings, following rename in the archive")21:18
Laneyand push21:18
Laneybut don't worry if you aren't confident, feel free to leave it for someone else21:18
ailoI'm confident, just not done it before. I had a look at seeds. Just a textfile21:19
Laneymake sure that `bzr whoami' is right21:20
Laneyand that you are logged in (bzr lp-login yourusername)21:20
ailoOk. I'll have a look21:21
ailoWell, I'm on it. Just need to get names and login right :P21:31
=== kubotu_ is now known as kubotu
len-dtailo, have you got it figgured out?21:47
ailolen-dt: Yep21:48
ailolen-dt: I had to do a bzr bind to get the adress right21:49
ailoJust commited21:49
ailoUsed to git, so there's nothing after commit, right?21:49
len-dtOk, I haven't had much time. Thanks21:49
len-dtI think micahg does the rest, he gets mail every time theres a seeds commit21:50
ailoWell, now I know a few things to add to the dev docs about seeds :)21:50
len-dtSeeds is different from all the other packages.21:51
LaneyI'll upload it21:51
Laneythanks21:51
ailoLaney: Thanks for the help21:51
len-dtIt's been my sons birthday today.. lots going on... and my first week back to work.21:52
ailolen-dt: No worries. I would think things go pretty smoothly. Only thing I come to think of is that no one is giving much feesback on recent changes, which I think is important, so we get things done as good as possible21:53
ailolen-dt: You've done some work on the menu, and seems like no one has really had the chance to look at that yetr21:53
len-dtI was waiting for the ISO to have all the metas in it and then for them to actually build...21:54
ailoAha, not everything is there yet..21:55
len-dtWe should have a new ISO tomorrow.21:55
* micahg wonders what he does22:19
micahgah22:20
Laneyupload -meta, presumably22:20
len-dtmicahg, I think it has been done22:20
* micahg asked len-dt to update the seeds for that 22:20
len-dtYa, len had family to deal with :-)22:21
micahglen-dt: ok :)22:21
* micahg can upload the meta as much as laney could22:21
Laneyi did it22:21
micahgLaney: I need to talk to scottl about fixing the branches so core-dev can commit22:21
* micahg didn't see the -meta on -changes yet22:22
LaneyLP has it22:23
ailolen-dt: Is there a way to have the "*-extra" item in the menu be at the top of the menu?22:31
len-dtailo, yes.22:41
len-dtI would put it just below any subdirectories if I was going to move it.22:42
ailolen-dt: Why not at the top of the menu?22:46
ailoIt's a function for adding more stuff to the menu. But, it'22:46
ailoit's neither an application, or a menu22:46
len-dtailo, in the Audio production men (for example) the sub menus have their own extra...22:47
ailoSo, it should be at the top of the menu, preferably with a line under it, separating it from the other items in the menu22:47
len-dt6 of one half dozen of the other... ;-)22:47
len-dtailo, it was partly for that reason I didn't place it.22:48
ailolen-dt: I was thinking about the submenus a bit. It striked me that there were a lot of extras. Something one is not used to seeing in a menu. Intuitively, I feel it's enough having the extras for each workflow, but I guess it doesn't hurt to keep it as is22:49
ailoI mean, the user will have the possibility to do his/her own searches. 22:50
len-dtThe reason I broke it up is that the number of apps that can be added is limited by the length of the command line. So I thought that would give more room for adding things22:50
len-dtin hind sight... I have not run out of room on any of them.22:51
len-dtmaybe it doesn't matter22:51
ailoWell, that's my initial perception of it. I can safely say, I had a fresh first encounter with it22:52
len-dtI'm not even sure if I chose the right apps22:52
ailoI never looked at that actually. But, I did feel this could be helpful22:53
ailoHowever, even one link could already do a lot22:53
ailoOne for each workflow felt like more than enough22:54
len-dtThat was why I did it a month ago so we could have more input. But it took some time to get it in. I think 13.04 might have something better thought out if some people try it.22:54
ailoI think it's the right way to try things. Go the full way, so to speak. 22:56
