roastedhmmm... does this help development for the Ubuntu gnome team? http://m.webupd8.org/2013/12/confirmed-canonical-is-forking-gnome.html?m=114:18
mgedminafaiu yes14:21
roastedthat would be great if it helps out development a bit.14:57
roastedI really like ubuntu gnome but sometimes the magnitude of PPAs needed to just pull in a full up to date version of Gnome is a little... eh??14:57
mgedmintiring14:58
roastedbut if Ubuntu/Unity distances itself from underlying Gnome technologies then maybe it'll free up some strongarming Ubuntu had that kept Ubuntu Gnome from being that much more awesome.14:58
amjjawadHi :)15:01
amjjawadroasted, if you like Ubuntu GNOME, why not join us?15:02
roastedamjjawad: doing... what? I can't code to save my life.15:03
amjjawadI am a Team Leader of many Sub-Teams of Ubuntu GNOME and we are looking for new contributors :)15:03
amjjawadhttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuGNOME/GettingInvolved15:04
amjjawadroasted, doing a lot ;)15:04
amjjawadhow told you it is all about codes? it is not. There are several areas where you can help us15:04
mgedminamjjawad, I reported a segfault a while ago, and pointed out the place in debian/patches/ that causes it: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-gnome/+bug/124328315:05
ubot5Ubuntu bug 1243283 in Ubuntu GNOME "gnome-control-center crashes if you change the language of the login screen" [Undecided,New]15:05
mgedminso far no response15:05
mgedminwhat would be the next step into getting it resolved?15:06
mgedminwould it help if I produced a debdiff?15:06
amjjawadmgedmin, let me have a look :)15:07
roastedamjjawad: you're Ali, correct?15:08
amjjawadthere is only one amjjawad in the whole family and his name is Ali, yes :P15:08
roastedamjjawad: I remember seeing the name Ali a lot on the mailing list. That's why I asked. :P15:09
amjjawadroasted, no worries, yes, it is me :)15:09
amjjawadbut I don't like IRC much :)15:09
amjjawadquitting Lubuntu Team after 2 years gave me more time, that is why I decided to be here more often :)15:10
roastedaw man, I love me some IRC.15:11
amjjawadmgedmin, I am not on Ubuntu GNOME right now so can't confirm your bug. However do one thing please until I reboot and try it. Send an email to the Ubuntu GNOME QA Mailing list - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuGNOME/Testing#Join_Ubuntu_GNOME_QA_Sub-Team15:11
amjjawadmgedmin, send the link of that bug please and I will post a comment once I will be able to re-produce it :)15:12
roastedamjjawad: whoa, 80 active developers?15:16
amjjawadroasted, 80?15:19
roastedthat's what it said on the launchpad section for devs15:19
roastedfrom the sub group link15:19
amjjawadwe don't have 80 developers :)15:20
amjjawadwe are small young team trying to beat the impossible and be one of the top 10 Linux Systems ;)15:20
amjjawadyou are missing lots of fun, I'd suggest to join us if you have a passion for Linux and Ubuntu GNOME15:21
roastedI'm still looking over the sub teams. I'm just not sure what would fit. :/15:21

roastedso, probably a dumb question, but in the grand scheme of things how important is gnome control center and gnome settings daemon?15:27
roastedWould they be classified as monumentally sized components of gnome?15:27
roastedI'm just trying to wrap my brain around how much or how little it matters that canonical is forking these two items for 14.0415:27
amjjawadmgedmin, would you please join the QA team?15:31
amjjawadso that I don't have to approve your emails every time :P15:31
mgedmindepends -- what would be my responsibilities as a member of that team?15:32

darkxstroasted, g-s-d and g-c-c are very important but Ubuntu packages are heavily patched, so hard to update. Canonical are forking these to unblock things for us.21:12
roasteddarkxst: so, bottom line, this is *huge* news to ubuntu gnome's ability to develop things quickly in a sane manner.21:13
roastedeh?21:13
darkxstroasted, it is one big step in the right direction21:14
roastedthat's great21:14
darkxstlibgnome-desktop is still an issue, but hopefully we can sort that out. Bug 122876521:15
