slangasekbkerensa: where's the beer05:50
bkerensaslangasek: in the stomach05:50
slangasekbkerensa: I mean tomorrow's Debian beering :)05:50
bkerensaoh05:51
slangasekLucky Lab?  Or somewhere closer to OSCON?05:51
slangasekI suppose Lucky Lab isn't too bad; .5h walk, or <10min bus05:51
bkerensaslangasek: so ideally we could meetup at one of the oscon parties?05:52
bkerensa:)05:52
bkerensahttp://www.oscon.com/oscon2013/public/schedule/detail/3141905:52
slangasekif that's what folks prefer05:52
slangasekI have no preference, I just want to make sure the locals know where to meet up :)05:53
bkerensaslangasek: so pleia2 is leaving early tomorrow but there are still a lot of Canoni folks in town05:53
slangasekCanonical Debian folks?  I thought this was supposed to be a Debian meet-up :)05:53
bkerensaslangasek: yeah so pleia2 would be the only debian person in town and she has to fly out early05:54
bkerensa:(05:54
slangasekpff05:54
slangasekok, well, feel free to call the beering wherever you'd like then :)05:54
bkerensaslangasek: unless you consider shuttleworth a debian folk05:54
bkerensa;p05:54
bkerensaI asked him about Honey Bee Colony Collapse05:55
bkerensaand he said he bees are not suffering05:55
slangasekI will sidestep that question by pointing out we're unlikely to get him to come to a beering tomorrow on such short notice05:55
bkerensahe thinks our use of pesticides is the cause05:55
bkerensa:)05:55
bkerensaoh05:55
bkerensahe was at all the parties this week05:55
bkerensa:)05:55
slangasekit's probably a factor; colony collapse seems to be a primarily US phenomenon. :P05:55
slangasekbut that doesn't rule out it being a natural disease that's geographically limited05:56
slangasekanyway, if you want Debian folks to come out to OSCON or wherever for beering, please send mail :)05:57
slangasekif I don't see mail, I will probably find other ways to occupy my time tomorrow evening05:57
bkerensaslangasek: sent05:57
bkerensaI am not opposed to Lucky Labs either way and would gladly meet there if oscon party sees opposition05:58
slangasekI don't foresee any opposition to OSCON.  We already had the regularly scheduled Debian beering this month, so tomorrow is a bonus beering specifically for OSCON05:59
bkerensaslangasek: DD's in Town: Thierry Carrez, Gustavo Franco, Frédéric Lepied, Taku Yasui06:01
slangasekThierry's not a DD, though the other three are and apparently some keysigning is warranted :)06:03
bkerensaslangasek: have you seen this key signing tool http://www.phildev.net/pius/06:04
slangaseknope.  Looks redundant with the signing-party package and the caff tool.06:05
bkerensaslangasek: do you have any suggestions for me ever getting this patch landed? http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.network/25522716:59
bkerensaIts like upstream is ignoring it17:00
slangasekbkerensa: no, I'm not a kernel dev and have no insights there17:00
bkerensakees: ^ do you :/17:00
bkerensathe only person I know is maybe kees he sends patches to lkml land17:00
keesbkerensa: /me looks17:01
keesbkerensa: oh, that was in Jan?17:05
keesbkerensa: so, I have a number of suggestions:17:05
bkerensakees: yeah man and I sent once before and then kindly e-mailed the maintained who ripped me a new one about off mailing list mail and such17:05
bkerensa:d17:05
kees1) use the "scripts/checkpatch.pl" tool in the kernel to validate the contents of the patch17:05
bkerensaok17:05
kees2) CC lkml and netdev (I use scripts/get_maintainer.pl to get a list of people that might want to be CC)17:06
keesfrom 1, you'll likely have to split that line, since it looks to be >80 char17:06
kees3) read Documentation/SubmittingPatches since it looks like your patch isn't from git, and lacks the right ordering and subjects17:07
keesfrom 3, you'd likely want to use "git log path/to/ping_common.c" to see how other people have done patches, but I bet the subject will look like "[PATCH] ping: remove excessive punctuation in flood warning"17:08
keesand then the body would be more descriptive, followed with your Signed-off-by17:08
kees"git format-patch" can be used to help with that, too.17:08
bkerensaok17:08
keesand, I think I'm out of ideas :)17:09
keesbut I'd suggest pull a git tree and using it to generate the patches.17:09
bkerensakk17:09
bkerensaI will do this tonight17:09
bkerensathx17:09
keese.g.:17:09
keesgit clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git17:10
keesvi path/to/ping_common.c17:10
keesgit commit -aes17:10
keesgit format-patch HEAD~117:10
kees./scripts/checkpatch.pl 0001-ping_remove_excessive...patch17:10
kees./scripts/get_maintainer.pl 0001-....patch17:10
kees(oh, you'll need a "cd linux" after that git clone)17:11
bkerensakees: where do you store all this data? :) do you answer questions like this often?17:11
bkerensa:)17:11
keesbkerensa: heh, nah, this is just off the top of my head. I do it so much.17:11
keesonly thing I looked up with the full git clone path to linus's tree :)17:12
bkerensakees: you coming to the beering at Jupiter Hotel tonight?17:12
bkerensaslangasek: I invited all the DD's and DM's that are in town for OSCON to come17:13
keesbkerensa: unclear, I'm still trying to understand the shape of my day today. :)17:13
keesbkerensa: when you've got it prepared again, feel free to email it to me first and I can re-check what you've got.17:14
bkerensakees: kk17:15
