slangasek | ah, we put infinity in the rotation, but he's probably asleep due to Macao :) | 16:19 |
slangasek | cjohnston: | 16:19 |
slangasek | er | 16:19 |
slangasek | cjwatson: | 16:19 |
cjwatson | Cherry-picked several easy fixes (mostly build/packaging, and bug 1285790) from my libclick work and landed them in click 0.4.16, by way of CI Train practice. | 16:20 |
ubottu | bug 1285790 in click (Ubuntu) "click crashed with BrokenPipeError in run(): [Errno 32] Broken pipe" [Low,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1285790 | 16:20 |
cjwatson | Pushed libclick out for review. Went through my own proofreading pass in parallel; found and fixed several bugs. | 16:20 |
cjwatson | Started work on converting some known click clients (upstart-app-launch, unity-scope-click, clickmanager-plugin) to libclick. Some of this will need library equivalents of "click info" and "click list", so started on those too. | 16:20 |
cjwatson | Worked on a branch to expose supported frameworks in libclick. | 16:20 |
cjwatson | Landing libclick at the moment. http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~click-hackers/click/trunk/files/head:/click/tests/ (esp. gimock.py and some test file such as test_hooks.py) if you're interested in the crazy scheme I was talking about last week. | 16:20 |
cjwatson | Fixed up python-tblib build problems (planning to use this for click later). | 16:20 |
cjwatson | Merged gnutls28 security fixes. | 16:20 |
cjwatson | Attempted to get ghc/arm64 building, prompted by a thread on ubuntu-devel-discuss; predictably failed. | 16:20 |
cjwatson | Rooted my phone and set it up to dual-boot Ubuntu, so that I have a test system that doesn't make me want to throw things. | 16:21 |
cjwatson | .. | 16:21 |
xnox | * python3: | 16:22 |
xnox | - unity8, ubuntu-ui-toolkit, ofono, a few more clicks all landed. | 16:22 |
xnox | - next up: land phablet-tools py2&3 support | 16:22 |
xnox | - next up: continue testing/landing remaining clicks | 16:22 |
xnox | * touch-x86: | 16:22 |
xnox | - worked on fixing up x86 cross toolchain, it still does not build | 16:22 |
xnox | with ssp. | 16:22 |
xnox | * upstart/touch printing: | 16:22 |
xnox | - fixed cups socket activation with upstart, it mostly was s/-F/-f/ | 16:22 |
xnox | in the cups upstart job + correct typos. (both -F/-f mean | 16:22 |
xnox | foreground, both change fg variable 0 => 1/-1, most things test for | 16:22 |
xnox | !fg, apart from one small portion which closes all passed FDs when | 16:22 |
ubottu | xnox: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 16:22 |
xnox | running with -F instead of -f) | 16:22 |
xnox | - reviewed a few upstart merge proposals. We should be good for a | 16:22 |
xnox | bugfix heavy upstart release. | 16:22 |
xnox | * aa/+1: | 16:22 |
xnox | - disentangled libav8 NBS by fixing a few packages and uploading | 16:22 |
xnox | patches to port mplayer to libav9 from gentoo, thus there is little | 16:22 |
xnox | removal damage - two small leave packages. (mplayer on the other | 16:22 |
xnox | hand has a lot of reverse dependencies). | 16:22 |
xnox | .. | 16:22 |
doko | x86 cross toolchain? | 16:23 |
cjwatson | x86 bionic I guess? | 16:23 |
xnox | yes. | 16:23 |
doko | ahh, ok | 16:23 |
doko | based on which 4.x? | 16:23 |
cjwatson | cross for small values of cross | 16:23 |
xnox | doko: 4.7, but it compiles bionic libc, somehow with missing symbols required for a working ssp. thus nothing links. | 16:24 |
stgraber | LXC: | 16:24 |
stgraber | - Fixed quite a few lxc-ls bugs (nested unpriv containers, stopped containers, dealing with invalid config, ...) | 16:24 |

stgraber | - Got a patch covering all code paths we care about, now I just need to make this actually work... | 16:24 |
stgraber | - Landing for this will be blocked by the cgmanager MIR and by its own FFe | 16:24 |
stgraber | Networking: | 16:24 |

slangasek | dholbach: on the phone, but meaning to be around | 17:02 |
mdeslaur | sure, I'm here | 17:02 |
czajkowski | slangasek: mdeslaur howdy folks | 17:03 |
slangasek | heya | 17:03 |
mdeslaur | hi | 17:03 |
czajkowski | So how are things in the TB going ? | 17:03 |
czajkowski | care to give us an update ? | 17:03 |
* pitti waves hello | 17:03 | |
slangasek | seems pretty low-key, really | 17:04 |
slangasek | not much demand for our services :-) | 17:04 |
pitti | I joined a few mins late, was there any question to the TB already? | 17:05 |
dholbach | for those of you who haven't been around in the last meeting - the CC catches up with governance and community teams as part of our meeting to see how things are going and to have a look at "operations" from a bit of a distance :) | 17:05 |
pitti | ah | 17:05 |
dholbach | pitti, just generally asking how things have been going :) | 17:05 |
pitti | well, we actually skipped the last few meetings due to not having any agenda | 17:05 |
pitti | on the meetings we did have, things are usually going well, the biggest recent hiccup was the late re-election of the TB itself | 17:05 |
pitti | but the day-to-day business is usually MREs and the like | 17:06 |
dholbach | so the new TB members have settled in well in their low-key new activity? :) | 17:06 |
czajkowski | pitti: yes we are sorry about that | 17:06 |
pitti | it's been a while since we have had a long and difficult technical discussion | 17:06 |
pleia2 | o/ | 17:06 |
pitti | czajkowski: no worries, nobody's fault in particular | 17:06 |
czajkowski | and hopefully we won't let it go that late again, the issues there was so many boards expiring at the same time, including the CC. | 17:06 |
czajkowski | is it worth having a meeting even when there is a blank agenda so people can catch up | 17:06 |
YokoZar | pitti: This is perhaps due to the LTS nature of Trusty making all reasonable decisions of this nature done well in advance, yes? | 17:07 |
czajkowski | does the community know they can reach out to the TB ? | 17:07 |
pitti | we used to have a lot more topics, but that was in the days when ubuntu was driven a lot more by UDSes and community | 17:07 |
dholbach | so when there's been long discussions and difficult decisions, how did you feel it generally went? | 17:07 |
pitti | and also because there is not that much major change going on in the non-phone-y bits | 17:07 |
pitti | YokoZar: yeah, that too | 17:07 |
pitti | dholbach: as they should go, really; I remember discussions like "should we install binary drivers by default", the OpenSSL vs. GPL debate, etc. | 17:08 |
czajkowski | pitti: so how do you feel it is driven now considering we have online uds | 17:08 |
pitti | we had a thorough discussion, voting, annoucned it to the devel crowd, and there generally hasn't been any negative feedback about those | 17:08 |
czajkowski | which is great to see | 17:08 |
dholbach | pitti, sure - I was just wondering if you were happy with that kind of discussions (so no major delays, everyone weighing in, decision making process is sufficiently refined, etc.) | 17:09 |
pitti | dholbach: oh yes; we could have had some speedier discussions for sure, but that's just the nature of timezones and (often) email-based communication, so not much to complain from my side | 17:09 |
czajkowski | nods | 17:10 |
dholbach | cool | 17:10 |
YokoZar | We put the TB on a 2 year cycle as well as the CC, do you guys feel it's correct for them to be replaced mid-way through an LTS cycle or should we move the elections to, say, just after the next LTS release rather than a few months before? | 17:10 |
dholbach | I guess that's similar for the CC as well :) | 17:10 |
pitti | czajkowski: as I said, the desktop/server bits don't have a lot of structural change these days, so nothing that bubbles up to the TB | 17:10 |
YokoZar | (we had a similar argument ~ the CC itself) | 17:10 |
pitti | what I am missing a bit is to discuss technical architecture of the phone | 17:10 |
czajkowski | pitti: ah interesting | 17:11 |
czajkowski | where does that currently take place? | 17:11 |
dholbach | pitti, do you have an example of what you feel would have warranted a discussion with the TB? | 17:11 |
pitti | there's the ubuntu-phone@ ML and such | 17:11 |
dholbach | (just to get an idea) | 17:11 |
pitti | and most of the design decisions etc. are just fine | 17:11 |
pitti | the main thing that comes to my mind is that in retrospect we should have discussed how to build the image-based upgrades without breaking /etc/ so hard | 17:12 |
czajkowski | pitti: so you're saying you agree with them, but you'd like to see the TB perhaps involved more in the discussion or be involved more ? | 17:12 |
pleia2 | pitti: any thoughts from the tb regarding the init system stuff? (mark kind of announced it after debian made their decision "pending community discussion") | 17:12 |
pleia2 | seems like something the tb should have weighed in on first | 17:12 |
pitti | pleia2: ah, I deliberately didn't bring that up -- but yes, that'll most certainly be a bigger discussion that comes in the next cycle :) | 17:12 |
* pleia2 troublemaker :) | 17:13 | |
pitti | pleia2: well, we will | 17:13 |
* pleia2 nods | 17:13 | |
dholbach | to be fair, Mark said "I will ask the Ubuntu tech board (many of whom do not work for Canonical) to review the position" :) | 17:14 |
pleia2 | yeah | 17:14 |
pitti | czajkowski: yes, but this is the main issue I have really; and it's always easy to say in hindsight "we should have discussed that more", but not that easy to plan in advance | 17:14 |
dholbach | but yeah :) | 17:14 |
pitti | czajkowski: so I don't want to stress that too much really; but I think we need a version 2 of that, and thus maybe the TB is a good forum to discuss that new design | 17:15 |
pitti | but yeah, in general I think it's working ok | 17:15 |
czajkowski | pitti: I agree | 17:15 |
czajkowski | so perhaps this is something we can raise and see if we can drive some discussion over to yo folks to get your experience in | 17:15 |
dholbach | how much of the discussion happens on the mailing list and how much in meetings? do non-TB members weigh in as well? | 17:15 |
czajkowski | and ask dholbach pointed out sabdfl did say he would ask the TB | 17:16 |
pitti | pleia2: I'm sure cjwatson and slangasek have a super-huge desire to discuss upstart vs. systemd soon :-) (it's not like they wasted many months of their lifetime thinking about it already..) | 17:16 |
mdeslaur | hehe | 17:16 |
pleia2 | pitti: yeah, I followed the debian discussions | 17:16 |
pitti | dholbach: historically, most in meetings due to the synchronous nature | 17:16 |
pitti | dholbach: these days, small things like MRE requests or the LTS lifetimes are happening mostly over email as that's more practical | 17:17 |
pitti | dholbach: and yes, we have non-TB members posting to the list | 17:17 |
dholbach | yeah, that makes perfect sense | 17:17 |
cjwatson | pitti: it's on the vUDS schedule I believe | 17:17 |
pitti | cjwatson: ah, "fun" :) | 17:17 |
pleia2 | cjwatson: ah, great | 17:17 |
sabdfl | hi all, sorry to be late | 17:18 |
dholbach | so it sounds like the TB processes are well-oiled machinery... is there anything which has been on your collective minds to be changed at some stage? or things which have repeatedly been put on the backburner? | 17:19 |
* pitti scratches head, nothing comes to my mind from the last 2 years really | 17:19 | |
dholbach | even better :) | 17:19 |
YokoZar | I'll reraise my question from earlier, as I believe it got skipped: We put the TB on a 2 year cycle as well as the CC, do you guys feel it's correct for them to be replaced mid-way through an LTS cycle or should we move the elections to, say, just after the next LTS release rather than a few months before? | 17:19 |
pitti | I think the OpenSSL vs. GPL debate came up several times | 17:19 |
pleia2 | oh, so the CC kept having meetings that had no agenda for a while, which is when we started doing these check-ins, I wonder if something similar might be useful for TB and dev teams? | 17:20 |
slangasek | YokoZar: I have no strong opinion on this... more important is to not leave a gap, as we did last fall | 17:20 |
pitti | YokoZar: ah, I didn't think that was aimed at TB; as the elections were supposed to happen much much earlier, it would have even been during saucy I believe | 17:20 |
YokoZar | Right around saucy release | 17:21 |
YokoZar | was original schedule I think | 17:21 |
pleia2 | yeah | 17:21 |
pitti | YokoZar: I actually think it's quite a good time, as traditionally during the LTS cycles there's not that much to decide | 17:21 |
YokoZar | pitti: hypothetically, though, if we replace the entire board it might make a bunch of new decisions | 17:22 |
czajkowski | pitti: thanks for the udpate this has been great to her and nice to see a healthy TB | 17:22 |
czajkowski | pleia2: indeed and I wondered if doing somehting similar for the TB would be useful for them to get to have more discussion here | 17:22 |
czajkowski | YokoZar: same could be said for any board at any given time tbh | 17:23 |
pitti | YokoZar: yes, but that could happen at any point? | 17:23 |
YokoZar | czajkowski: pitti: for sure, but would it be "less bad" after an LTS rather than before? | 17:23 |
pitti | so yes, if we elect a board that makes silly decisions, something went wrong before that | 17:23 |
pitti | YokoZar: yes, perhaps | 17:23 |
dholbach | did anyone see pleia2's question? I personally think it might be worth trying | 17:23 |
pitti | YokoZar: but then a new board would actually be thrown into a time when there's potentially many discussions to make, which might be more overwhelming for new members? | 17:24 |
czajkowski | pitti: mdeslaur slangasek how about whe you've a blank agenda, still having a meeting | 17:24 |
czajkowski | so people can see a discussion and join | 17:24 |
czajkowski | we've started doing this and it's been very useful | 17:24 |
mdeslaur | that's what we've done so far | 17:24 |
YokoZar | Not sure how frequent it is for "lay folk" to pop into TB meetings and raise an issue, but it does happen with CC meetings from time to time | 17:25 |
czajkowski | or you could arrange a catch up wth groups the tb has an interst in | 17:25 |
pitti | we usually do | 17:25 |
pitti | wait a bit | 17:25 |
pitti | then say "nothing to discuss" and end it again | 17:25 |
pitti | YokoZar: it does happen quite often; in fact that's the norm, as these days the TB rarely raises issues by themselves | 17:25 |
pitti | i. e. someone adds an agenda item and then usually appears in the meeting | 17:25 |
dholbach | great - as others have said... I'm quite happy with how the TB is working - I'm done with questions :) | 17:26 |
dholbach | keep up the good work everyone! :) | 17:26 |
YokoZar | pitti: so perhaps around a time when it's too late to reasonably change things in the LTS cycle, but before hecticness of post-release. Like around the next UDS we're having. | 17:26 |
pleia2 | thanks pitti :) | 17:26 |
YokoZar | What if elections were considerably before terms starting? | 17:26 |
pitti | YokoZar: yeah, sounds good | 17:26 |
YokoZar | Like we vote around now, and incoming members start their term after LTS release | 17:27 |
pitti | YokoZar: I don't like that very much, I must say; I think it's good for the old board to have a last meeting after the election to hand over, but not much more | 17:27 |
pitti | but I don't have a strong opinion on that | 17:27 |
YokoZar | Relatedly, I am encouraged by the lack of strong opinions regarding our election rules, it means our politics aren't particularly "politics" ;) | 17:28 |
czajkowski | any other questions folks before we wrap up | 17:28 |
* sabdfl is still reading the scrollback | 17:28 | |
pitti | YokoZar: or that things are mostly going well and all that's left to do is finetuning :) | 17:28 |
czajkowski | YokoZar: you just like running polls! admit it :P | 17:28 |
YokoZar | This is not an "admission" any more than one confesses to liking the sunrise | 17:30 |
pleia2 | hehe | 17:30 |
sabdfl | regarding init | 17:32 |
sabdfl | if the TB has a strong opinion different to the broad roadmap of "adopting systemd on an appropriate schedule" then i'm very open to hearing it | 17:32 |
pitti | sabdfl: probably the wrong place here, but FWIW, I agree to you | 17:33 |
pitti | sabdfl: seeing how much recent action there is in Debian towards adding native systemd packagse to stuff, I think in a year or so we'll have this robust enough | 17:33 |
pitti | sabdfl: with RHEL7 moving to systemd the server world ought to catch up quickly | 17:34 |
sabdfl | my commentary was not to subvert the TB, but to express that there is no ideological attachment to code that 'belongs' to Canonical | 17:34 |
pitti | the desktop world pretty much worked two years ago already, but our concern was the server back then | 17:34 |
sabdfl | we'll move where works best, and i trust the TB to map that out | 17:34 |
pitti | so for me it's not a question of "if", but "when/how" | 17:34 |
YokoZar | So, not understanding much of ubuntu-phone, how specific are the phone-related technical decisions that we can expect in the future? | 17:35 |
pitti | as long-term it seems much better to follow Debian than eternally diverging | 17:35 |
pitti | YokoZar: they are actually meant to become less and less phone specific over time | 17:35 |
pitti | YokoZar: "convergence" | 17:35 |
slangasek | pitti: I don't believe that RHEL7 is doing anything that we'll significantly be able to leverage; too much of this is integration work which doesn't translate | 17:35 |
slangasek | but I'm not sure the CC meeting is the place to have this discussion :) | 17:36 |
pitti | YokoZar: i. e. the phone is by and large a playground (excuse the wording, sabdfl) for trying out new technology like upgrades or display server | 17:36 |
pitti | without the need for backwards compat | 17:36 |
YokoZar | Yes, I imagined that was the eventual goal of any reasonable implementation. | 17:36 |
YokoZar | I would hope phone would soon be "absorbed" into the rest of Ubuntu governance smoothly | 17:36 |
pitti | YokoZar: yes, AFAIUI that's the plan | 17:36 |
sabdfl | this was a particularly difficult thing to watch unfold, since in a sense we were never consulted on an issue with major consequences for us, and we're a member of the family | 17:36 |
sabdfl | but then, some would argue we had great representation at the table, only wearing different hats | 17:36 |
sabdfl | nothing more from me, thanks TB for checking in | 17:36 |
pitti | the phone has laid a lot of new approaches to both technology (like Mir) and methods (like CI) | 17:37 |
YokoZar | And, say, phone community == ubuntu community and phone tech decisions == ubuntu tech decisions with the same relevant governance | 17:37 |
pitti | and they are certainly meant to be used on desktop in the future as well | 17:37 |
pitti | in practice they are still quite separated these days, but I think that's mostly due to the LTS | 17:38 |
pitti | e. g. we can't/shouldn't land things like Mir/Unity 8 now | 17:38 |
pitti | and likewise can't turn our upgrade mechanics upside down now | 17:38 |
czajkowski | pitti: I like those honest decisisons where we admit things aren't ready even when we wish they were | 17:39 |
YokoZar | Do you think the archive itself might continue some of this delta? I vaguely worry about a future where we have, say, the arm arch for desktop packages have a lot of phone-specific deltas with a separate decision tree from the rest of the distro | 17:39 |
czajkowski | any other comments folks before we wrap it up | 17:40 |
mdeslaur | there is no archive delta for the phone at the moment | 17:40 |
dholbach | YokoZar, that sounds like a summary for the work leading up to the next LTS - bringing unity8 to the desktop and making the convergence happen :) | 17:40 |
mdeslaur | it's just using a different version of unity | 17:40 |
pitti | YokoZar: yes, it's less along the lines of architecture and more of package selection | 17:41 |
pitti | unity8-desktop-session-{mir,x11} in trusty :) | 17:41 |
pitti | I expect that to become the default soon | 17:41 |
pitti | i. e. convergence to make a leap in 14.10 | 17:41 |
YokoZar | mdeslaur: Right, and perhaps if we do convergence especially "wrong" in the future we might have different versions of a lot of things on phone vs desktop | 17:41 |
pitti | sabdfl: btw, any chance we can get the u name before the release? it's needed in a couple of places, and last time we had to do a number of SRUs due to that | 17:42 |
YokoZar | ugh | 17:42 |
YokoZar | I'll follow up with him (he left) | 17:42 |
YokoZar | Though | 17:42 |
YokoZar | I have hounded him with that question before | 17:42 |
pitti | ah | 17:42 |
YokoZar | I suspect hearing it from the TB as well might help | 17:42 |
czajkowski | ok thanks folks | 17:43 |
dholbach | thanks a lot everyone! | 17:43 |
mdeslaur | thanks! | 17:43 |
pitti | thanks everyone! | 17:43 |
YokoZar | Mark WILL delay the full name as long as possible for marketing/other purposes though | 17:43 |
YokoZar | Thank you folks | 17:43 |
dholbach | Do we have any other business? | 17:44 |

hggdh | spineau: please go ahead and introduce yourself | 22:24 |
spineau | ok | 22:24 |
spineau | Hello, I'm Sylvain Pineau (Wiki: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SylvainPineau, LP: https://launchpad.net/~sylvain-pineau) | 22:24 |
spineau | I live in France and I'm working for the Hardware Certification Team at Canonical | 22:24 |
spineau | My main focus is QA automation for Ubuntu, I'm one of the core developper of Checkbox, the system testing application that we have on the CD since 2008. | 22:24 |
spineau | I led a vUDS session last November to share the Checkbox roadmap for Trusty. | 22:24 |
spineau | I'm also an upstream maintainer of several Checkbox dependencies in Debian | 22:24 |
spineau | I contribute to kernel SRU testing and made various contributions to other test frameworks used by the community. | 22:25 |
hggdh | I see you have some testimonials :-) | 22:26 |
spineau | hggdh: indeed, and roadmr accepted to be online with uq | 22:26 |
spineau | us | 22:26 |
* roadmr waves - here to support spineau | 22:26 | |
hggdh | roadmr: hi, I see you :-) | 22:27 |
hggdh | I have no questions for you -- I know your work... | 22:27 |
spineau | I didn't mention UEC ;-) | 22:27 |

hggdh | #voters IdleOne hggdh cjohnston PabloRubianes | 22:28 |
meetingology | Current voters: IdleOne PabloRubianes cjohnston hggdh | 22:28 |
spineau | UEC was Ubuntu Enterprise Cloud, I wrote some tests for it | 22:29 |
hggdh | yeah. UEC was fun regarding tests... | 22:29 |
spineau | it was using eucalyptus before we decided to use openstack | 22:29 |
cjohnston | spineau: do you do anything with a LoCo team or anything else? All I see on your wiki appears to be related to what you do for your job | 22:30 |
spineau | cjohnston: I'm not involved with a French loco team, I'm too far from Paris TBH | 22:30 |
spineau | cjohnston: I attended to some Perl Mongers meetings but that's unrelated to ubuntu | 22:31 |
spineau | Usually my main way to contribute is via triaging or via IRC | 22:33 |
IdleOne | How do you contribute via IRC specifically? | 22:33 |
spineau | IdleOne: answering/asking questions | 22:34 |
spineau | IdleOne: we created #checkbox to help people who wants to start using the checkbox toolset | 22:35 |
