smartboyhwzequence, holstein ttoine len_1304 so do we need an UDS session for the one next week?15:49
smartboyhwThe start of the discussion of non-LTS releases deletion: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2013-February/036537.html15:59
smartboyhwUDS time: Next Tuesday, 14:00-20:00 UTC16:00
zequenceI suppose we should whip something up for UDS16:16
ttoinewhen is UDS ? maybe we can produce a video or something like that ?16:39
zequencettoine: It's next week16:41
ttoinewow16:42
zequenceThey're keeping a UDS every 3 months now, and only over the network16:42
ttoineok16:42
ttoineno more great meeting ?16:42
zequenceSeems like it16:42
ttoinewas too expensive, I guees16:42
ttoineguess16:42
zequenceMaybe they're too busy with the phone too16:42
ttoineyes, possible16:42
ttoineI just get my new Galaxy Nexus16:43
zequencettoine: How's your new life?16:43
ttoineI wait a bit to read some feedback anbd then will install the Ubuntu on my phone16:43
ttoinezequence, well16:43
ttoinethanks16:43
ttoinethere is a big challenge for me16:43
ttoineI have to make a new portal for the community of Bonitasoft.com and .org16:44
ttoineand animate it16:44
ttoineat the moment, the community is less and less active every monthn that is a big problem16:44
ttoineand the company would like to create new so people can contribute16:44
ttoinevery interesting.16:45
zequencettoine: Yes, sounds interesting16:45
ttoineI was supposed to use Drupal to develop the stuff, but the more I spend time playing with it, the less I think it will be possible to use it16:45
ttoineit is a very modern office: no paper, no phone (skype and google hangout/gtalk), every body has a laptop, a second screen, a headset16:46
ttoineyou can come at any time, if you do the hours you are paid for16:46
ttoineetc.16:46
ttoineand the boss is a great man16:46
ttoinepeople are nice and funny16:47
ttoineI can't imagine a better to work16:47
ttoinefrom the windows, we have the view on the mountain (ok, on the highway, too ;-))16:47
zequencettoine: Sounds fantastic :). Particularly about the hours :P16:47
ttoinezequence, I can't be late ;-)16:47
ttoineso, there are some counterparts, of course16:48
ttoinegreat personnal investment, find a house in the area, etc.16:48
zequenceI wish I could afford a house right now16:49
zequenceWill need to wait another 5-10 years16:49
zequencettoine: Expensive to buy a house there?16:49
ttoinezequence, I won't have the money to buy, I think17:00
ttoinethe last 4 years, I did only simple jobs17:01
ttoinebut it is possible to find houses around 100 k€ and 150 k€. It is less expensive than Lyon17:02
zequenceI'm just reading the mail list17:03
zequenceThere might even not be a Raring release as it looks now17:03
ttoinewow17:04
zequencettoine: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2013-February/036537.html17:05
zequenceI think I might prefer a rolling release17:08
zequenceAnd perhaps the possiblity of custom releases17:09
zequenceFor flavors17:09
zequenceI'm too tired today to think clearly about this. Will look at it tomorrow17:12
ttoineI agree with you17:15
ttoineinteressant but it is the end of the day too17:15
zequenceFor us a custom release makes more sense than to many other OSs17:17
zequenceWe can say this release has everything you need, and is solid for production use17:17
zequenceBut, it would be better if we could also use older versions for some packages, if there are regressions17:17
zequenceWe don't really have the manpower to do this though17:18
micahgzequence: you can't since you won't get security support17:18
zequencemicahg: I'm think more like a snapshot of the rolling release17:19
zequenceSome people prefer not to do any updates, once they have a solid system17:19
zequenceThose who prefer constant updates, might as well just use the rolling release as is17:20
zequenceThe LTS is supposed to be that of course17:20
zequenceSolid, I mean17:20
micahgzequence: unless one's machine in unplugged from any network source, one needs security updates17:21
zequencemicahg: For a studio machine, that might be the case.17:21
zequenceBut, even with a rolling release, one should be able to only do security updates17:22
micahgsecurity updates aren't marked as such ATM in the devel release17:22
zequencetrue17:22
zequencemicahg: Is it possible to do version control in seeds?17:26
zequenceLike forcing an older version of a package17:26
zequenceI would only consider that as an option in rare cases though17:27
zequencewb kubotu 17:29
micahgzequence: no17:30
zequenceI suppose we just need to be active testing applications that end up in -proposed, and stop those from being released which are presenting bad regressions, until fixed17:34
micahgno, -proposed ATM in the devel release isn't meant to be run17:44
zequencehmm, Debian Unstable I suppose is a sort of -proposed, isn't it?17:45
zequenceWhile Testing is the development release17:45
zequenceI guess the work should be done there already then17:46
micahgwell, yes and no, unstable is meant for packages that devs think are ready for testing, but they get bake time before they migrate (and are possibly blocked on RC bugs or other packages)17:46
zequenceI'd rather stop packages there already, if they did present some weird bugs. If they end up in a Ubuntu rolling release, without any question, that would be the only way to keep the rolling release clean17:48
Len-nbzequence, micahg I would like to see two streams in a rolling release. Justbtt21:35
Len-nbjust the same as the kernel has odd and even runs21:35
Len-nbNot sure how that would work though or if the logistics are doable.21:37
zequenceThere needs to be some sort of pre-release buffer for applications anyhow22:03
zequenceI'm thinking we could offer to do QA on some of those which are important for us22:03
zequenceThat's really all that is important for us22:05
zequenceAnd when it comes to our own packages, it's really just up to us when and how we do a release22:05
zequenceIf we can do a snapshot whenever we want, that would be good22:06
zequenceThe DVD is two things. 1. it's live. 2. it's an installation medium22:06
zequenceOne would like the live DVD to be great22:07
zequenceAnd a quality ensured snapshot could do taht22:07
zequenceAlso, we could time that with a new release of our own stuff22:07
zequenceSo, more or less like making a custom release22:07
zequenceLen-nb: You beat me to it22:32
zequenceLen-nb: on the mail list. I was going to answer the guy later22:32
zequenceLen-nb: btw, not that it matters at this point, but Nautilus is getting back its tree view in list view for Gnome 3.8 :)22:58
zequenceThat was the only detail besides search that seemed crazy to me leaving out22:59
zequenceBut, searching for files is done quite easily in the DASH too22:59
zequence..or should be, I mean22:59
Len-nbzequence, so long as thunar is not broken I would prefer to use that. The user can install nautilus if they want.23:02
Len-nbSearch for files ... there is a search in both nautilus and thunar, but both only seen to work in the current directory.23:03
Len-nbIt is handy to find an item that is not in the window, but that is about it. Also it only searches starting at the beginning of the file name. So search for in would get intro.txt, but not bin or win.23:05
zequenceLen-nb: Yeah, I wasn't for installing Naitilus in the first place. I was just conveying some news. Not often you see a feature pop out and in like that23:15
zequenceLen-nb: So, this search app for XFCE, is it good now?23:16
zequenceI mean, the one you were adding23:16
Len-nbIt is awaiting release. I just wanted it added before feature freeze... though it sounds like that may no longer matter.23:32
zequenceLen-nb: Yeah :)23:33
Len-nbThe version I have been testing works really well, it is just waiting to be released.23:33
Len-nbLike we are waiting for -settings23:33
zequenceLen-nb: The channels argument is added to the Ubuntu source by a patch I did23:35
zequenceSo, it's coming out shortly23:35
zequence..but that patch will have no reason to stay, if there's no raring release23:36
zequenceunless of course, one is in a hurry to get it into a daily23:37
Len-nbzequence, the response to adding krita has been very good. I was hoping to ask Scott's opinion, but he seems to be MIA just now.23:37
zequenceLen-nb: I say just add it23:38
Len-nbI would like to see channels= added as soon as can be. For pro work that is what makes pa-jack useful.23:38
zequenceLen-nb: It seems like one of the big ones23:38
Len-nbOk, I will add it tonight.23:39
zequenceLen-nb: The reason for my post on the mail list about channels was to talk over the Pulse maintainers to include mypatch for that23:39
Len-nbSo it will show in tomorrows daily23:39
Len-nbThey have already added channels so far as I know, it just hasn't made it to release yet23:40
zequenceLen-nb: I've added that commit as a patch to the Ubuntu source. Its' in23:40
Len-nbThe online docs even already show it there.23:40
zequenceIt's not released yet though23:41
Len-nbHave you added a line to the usage output?23:41
zequenceI'm adding two patches. One to enable the channel config, and the other to make it default to 223:41
zequenceI'm having trouble getting the second one in, which is why I posted23:41
zequenceTo get some data. I already know stereo is the best default23:42
zequenceJust needed to convince someone else about it23:42
Len-nbIf the proposed change of config directories happens it won't matter. US can default to 2 channels.23:42
