DanChapmanballoons, hey. I have a question, what would be classed as 'sustained and significant contributions' for ubuntu membership? anyway will have gedit ready for review soon. Got a bit held up today so couldn't get on it this morning16:11
balloonsDanChapman, I would happily give you a testimonial for membership.. Basically, the membership board reviews potential members I think once a month. There's a little bit of work for you to do.. make a wiki page about you and ask for testimonials from others to attest to your work and contributions16:13
balloonstypically they look for people who have been active and contributing for a little while.. the timeframe and level of contribution isn't hard defined; it's ultimately up to the membership board. That said, you've certainly been a wonderful contributor :-)16:14
elfyDanChapman: always useful to have testimonials from existing members as well - so you an count me in16:14
DanChapmanawesome cheers balloons and elfy, well i see it says the wiki page says its rare that applications are accepted for contributions less than 6 months so i will probably wait for a while16:23
DanChapmanooo i see summit is coming up soon. I liked the last one :-)16:24
balloonsDanChapman, I'm not sure how long it's been for you, but you can start on the page and asking for testimonials.. and yes, the end of this month :-)16:24
balloonssome things to talk about again eh?16:25
DanChapmanballoons, yes i will make a start on my wiki page. Is there going to be any Quality community sessions this summit? there always things to talk about :-)16:27
balloonsDanChapman, yes there will..it's about that time to start thinking about topics16:28
balloonsso this goes for anyone, but, feel free to bring up session ideas :-)16:28
slickymasterballoons, when is it scheduled ?16:33
balloonsslickymaster, http://uds.ubuntu.com/16:34
slickymasterballoons, thnaks16:34
slickymasterthanks16:34
elfyballoons: I shall think about that - depends on timing for me more than anything16:38
elfyI still am looking for the admin iso/package tracker :p16:38
balloonselfy, admin/iso tracker?16:39
elfymanual - it's been a long day for me ...16:40
balloonsapparently me too.. I'm confused16:49
elfyI still am looking for the admin iso/package tracker manual :p16:59
elfydoes that make it easier16:59
DanChapmanballoons, gedit ready for you when you get a moment17:04
balloonsDanChapman, aye17:10
balloonsk, review time for gedit17:30
DanChapmansweet :-)17:30
balloonsI'm guessing it should be a quick one, as you've just added the couple bits :-)17:31
DanChapmanyeah just two more tests added and the is_focus changes17:32
balloonsbtw, I like your samples.. humor is always helpful :-)17:32
DanChapman:-) well i couldn't leave them empty17:34
elfyballoons: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-manual-tests/+bug/120501317:43
ubot5Launchpad bug 1205013 in Ubuntu Manual Tests "Persistence should be it's own testcase" [Undecided,New]17:43
elfyis your idea as simple as removing the persistence bit from the livecd testcase and creating a new one for it?17:43
elfythat would be mine17:44
slickymastercy guys, got go17:54
balloonselfy, yea, I think that sounds fine18:15
balloonsDanChapman, your approved mate18:15
DanChapmanballoons, :-) awesome.  cheers18:17
DanChapmanballoons, do you want me to merge gedit?18:34
balloonsDanChapman, if you don't mind18:34
DanChapmanyeah no probs :-)18:34
balloonsI know it's kind of funny to merge your own stuff, but I've been spoiled by you doing it, hah18:35
balloonsmostly though I don't want to make a mistake, and I've got alot of code open18:35
DanChapmanballoons, lol ok all merged. Next on my list for the gtk apps is get nautilus done. I haven't heard from Vas recently so not sure what his plans are18:40
balloonsDanChapman, yea, I would move forward on nautilus. Giving nautilus the same treatment as gedit is sure to uncover some bugs though, so be careful18:41
DanChapmanballoons, will do :-)  i presume jibel is on leave this week. So i will leave my ubiquity probs til he gets back, should give me enough time to get a test together for nautilus.18:44
balloonsthere you go18:45
elfyballoons: pushed them both up for review now - set you as reviewer - I'll wait for comment and deal with them as I see them19:25
phillwballoons: have you seen a merge request from Markus re: lxkeymap and lxsessions-edit ?19:44
elfyI have seen them phillw19:45
phillwelfy: okies, Not sure how I missed them in my emails :/19:46
elfycouple of days gone now19:46
phillwyeah email dated 10 hours ago stated yesterday.... never quite sure when that is with us all different TZs :)19:48

melodiehello elfy20:00
melodieI was wondering if someone saw my late messages the other day, about some typos to be corrected, in the wiki?20:00
elfyI didn't20:00
elfymelodie: have you got a launchpad account? if you have you can login and change typos easily enough20:01
melodieI could repeat it now, is anyone here likely to modify the wiki?20:01
melodie<melodie> coming by just for a typo here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/Cadence20:01
melodie<melodie> s/and execute the testcases for the iso and report there results to the tracker. /and execute the testcases for the iso and report their results to the tracker.20:01

melodie<melodie> another typo can be noticed here:20:01
melodie<melodie> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/Hardware20:01
melodie<melodie> in this title: "How to generate and store a weblink of your computer's specications"20:01
melodie<melodie> specification and not specications, of course20:01
elfyyou can do it :)20:01
melodieI have a launchpad account but for now I have a wiki to install for the linuxvillage community20:02
melodie(I am the mayor of the Linuxvillage.net place ;) )20:02
elfynice :)20:02
melodiethanks20:02
melodieif anyone wants to grab the typos I pointed to and correct, my feedback is the contribution I can do20:03
elfydone them :)20:06
phillwmelodie: it may be a grammatical error in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/Hardware as some people have more than one machine. e.g. I store my hardware spec and my standard VM set up.20:06
elfyphillw: there's no such word as specications20:06
elfy:)20:06
phillwlol, that a typo! but the use of How to generate and store a weblink of your computer's specification(s) may be more grammatically correct?20:07
elfyI'd not worry about it personally20:08
phillware are we entering to the area of be pedantic? :P20:08
elfyI think so ;)20:08
phillw*Or are we*20:08
elfyor being20:08
elfy:p20:08
elfypedants dream - ubuntu wiki :D20:09
phillwindeed!20:09
elfyat least we don't get edit wars :p20:09
elfytrolls are more than enough20:09
melodiehi phillw not pendantic, just grammatically correct would be nice20:11
melodieand fancy:20:11
phillwmelodie: I totally missed the actual typo when looking for grammar... Such is the problem of being a trainee grammar nazi :P20:12
melodieI have been practicing English for years, and even though I am not at the level of someone having lived years in an English speaking country I can understand the words even with a typo (most of the time) but what about the kids who just started one or two years ago at school, or three years, four years? They won't understand the words with typo : English is for people from all countries20:12
melodielibreoffice with a good dictionary can be of some help to detect mistakes20:13
phillwmelodie: so when ever you spot a mis-spelled word, please do correct it :)20:13
melodieso that forces me to connect to launchpad, then find a way to get back to the page?20:14
elfyI find it hard to notice a lot of typos - I'm better at writing them20:14
melodienot sure if that is easy?20:14
elfymelodie: once you've an account you can just login to the wiki and away you go :)20:14
melodieelfy just pasting the text in libreoffice and checking with the corrector can help remove them20:14
phillwraw editing of wiki does not have any spell check, which is why I always ask someone to check over any new wiki page authored by my self (In ubuntu manual, they have both authors and editors... the editors double check the spelling, punctuation etc.)/20:14
elfyin fact you might just need a sso account now20:14
melodieelfy I do have a sso account20:15
elfymelodie: then probably you can do it20:15
phillwmelodie: you should be able to log into the wiki area in that case.20:15
melodiehttps://launchpad.net/~meets20:16
melodieok I try20:16
phillwmelodie: but if you find typos / poor structure and either cannot edit, or are unsure of what would be the best correction; please do feel more than welcome to drop me an email to phillw@ubuntu.com directly. I'm a big fan of wiki area and don't mind where the issue is.20:20
melodieok20:20
melodiedo you use a gpg key for email?20:20
melodieI am a gpg fan20:20
melodiewell I just connected to the page where the typo is and once connected, paf! redirect to the welcome page: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/20:21
melodiethis is crap imho20:22
elfyyep20:22
elfythat's the wiki for you - you might have to login again or now go to the page you want to edit20:22
melodiehttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/Cadence20:22
elfyI rarely edit wiki stuff anymore20:22
elfymelodie: though - those 2 typos you mention I have done now20:22
melodieI am at the page I want to edit and I am still not connected: oh yes, seen this before!!!20:23
melodieelfy ok20:23
melodieI confirm even connected I am fully unable to edit anything20:23

phillwmelodie: I just logged out and then back in. It took me to the ubuntu 1 page to sign in. Once I'd clicked continue - I'm back on.20:34
elfywhichever way you play it the wiki is a weak link and I'm not surprised people walk away from it20:35
melodieI don't know how you guys get into it, for me I can't20:36
melodieis it possible the problem is in the French version of the page?20:38
elfyI doubt that20:38
melodieelfy I don't know, all I can say is you and phillw can edit the wiki and I can't, even after removing the cookies and login in again20:43
melodiebeing tricky:20:45
phillwmelodie: flush your browser cache.20:46
melodieseeking for "testing Cadence" in the search field leads me to a page, where I can click to that page now I am still logged in, but I still cannot edit the page by any mean20:46
melodiemy browser does not have any cache, even in about:config : I do web mastering and can't keep a cache for that reason20:46
melodieno cache no dns cache, nothing in the hands, nothing in the pocket!20:47
phillwhmm, that's me out of ideas, sorry. I've had where the local cache was being used instead of grabbing the page after logging in.20:50
phillwdoes the page show you as being logged in?20:51
melodiewith the trick it does, without the trick it doesn't20:53
melodiehave to go, good night20:54

=== salem_ is now known as _salem
phillwballoons: as and when you get chance, can you review the two 'lx' tests in the merge request? lxkeymap and lxsession-edit. As for making persistance a separate test case? That gets a big +1 from me, casper is a funny beast at the best of times and having it on it's own area does make a lot of sense to me :)22:48
balloonsheard.. dinner time now.. I'll review manual tests tomorrow ;-)22:50
