knome#startmeeting Xubuntu community meeting19:00
meetingologyMeeting started Thu Apr 24 19:00:48 2014 UTC.  The chair is knome. Information about MeetBot at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/meetingology.19:00
meetingologyAvailable commands: action commands idea info link nick19:00
knomei'll skip the action items, updates and announcements...19:01
knome#topic Making sure the Processes page is up-to-date 19:01
knomehttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/Processes19:01
knomeif everybody could check that page and see if we are lacking some documentation for any tasks we need to take every cycle...19:02
* ochosi notices that he never actually read that page19:02
knomeit's a relatively new one19:02
knomeand still partly WIP by pleia2, Unit193 and myself19:03
GridCubeknome, can we have time to read the page and give feedback in the week? 19:03
knomei think it would be a good idea to have good documentation of everything around if people need to be away19:03
ochosi+119:03
knomeGridCube, you can send feedback on the mailing list19:03
ochosialso means you don't have to explain things over and over again19:04
knomei just wanted to bring this up now since we have just done everything in the last 6 months19:04
ochosiif you can simply point ppl to a page19:04
knomeyep19:04
GridCubei mean, can that be an action item for the team? 19:04
knomeGridCube, consider it as an always-open action item for the team19:04
GridCubealright19:04
knomeif you ever notice the page is missing something, notice people about it19:05
slickymastersorry for being late guys19:05
knomepleia2, are you atound?19:05
GridCubesure19:05
knome*around19:05
knomehey slickymaster, np19:05
* knome mixes up the agenda19:05
knome#topic Plans for 14.04 SRU's19:05
knomehttps://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/xubuntu-14-04-point-119:05
ochosii guess no news on ibus?19:07
knomeno19:07
ochosithe lock/suspend issue is being worked on19:07
ochosibut no patch so far19:07
knomeagain, this is one of the items that i just wanted to bring up19:07
knomeif there's anything you think should be in there, or if you think something should be dropped, be in touch with the team19:07
knomecurrently, i think everything in the blueprint is more or less SRU material19:07
ochosii guess, honestly i haven't checked all bugreports19:08
knomeok, let's keep on discussing about that and fixing the bugs19:09
knomeand move on19:09
knome#topic Cleaning up Launchpad assets19:09
knomehttps://bugs.launchpad.net/xubuntu-website/+bug/130558519:09
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1305585 in Xubuntu Website "Remove unneeded Launchpad assets" [Low,Triaged]19:09
knomeanybody see a (technical reason) to keep these assets?19:09
knomecan't see the first two mentioned ever used19:09
knomethe last one was "used", but doesn't have a technical reason19:10
knomeand seeing that kind of page might be just more confusing than helpful for users19:10
ochosiyeah, the daily and buildbot ones are related19:11
knomeyep19:11
ochosii do think we can get rid of both19:11
ochosiwill later bring up my proposal to replace that19:11
knomeochosi, ok, good19:11
knome#action knome to contact LP admins to drop ~xubuntu-xfce-daily-builds and ~xubuntu-buildbot19:11
meetingologyACTION: knome to contact LP admins to drop ~xubuntu-xfce-daily-builds and ~xubuntu-buildbot19:11
knomewhat about the latter?19:11
knomei guess...19:12
GridCubedoesnt that recieve bug reports?19:12
knomeGridCube, no.19:12
knomeGridCube, maybe load the page yourself and see and stop guessing19:12
GridCubethen i dont see why keeping it if its not being used19:12
GridCubei did that19:12
knome#action knome to check if the xubuntu-desktop project has any technical reason to be kept and get it removed if not19:12
meetingologyACTION: knome to check if the xubuntu-desktop project has any technical reason to be kept and get it removed if not19:12
knome#topic Create a testing PPA common to -team 19:13
knomeochosi, this is yours ;)19:13
ochosiyeah, so since we had a lot of testing going on in the 14.04 cycle through PPAs (and it worked well for us i think), i thought we could set up a team for that19:14
ochosiso that ppl can push packages that ought to get tested during the dev cycle to a common PPA19:14
ochosito make testers lives easier19:14
knomeis there any reason to not link that with ~xubuntu-dev?19:14
ochosiyeah, not all ppl who upload to that ppa might be in that team19:14
ochosii want to have a rather low hurdle for ppl to contribute to that PPA19:15
Unit193-qa made sense to me.19:15
knomewouldn't it make sense to have some kind of moderation for packages that are tested by $all_testers?19:15
bluesabre-tmpwell, we don't want too low19:15
ochosiand if we channel everything through -dev, it won't be fun because that team is too small19:15
knomei'd like the -dev team to have more members than now19:15
ochosiyes, i'd want a team that needs approval19:15
ochosiyeah, but -dev can also push to all branches19:16
ochosithat's not the same as up-ing packages to PPAs19:16
bluesabre-tmpyeah, but with -dev we can verify things before they get pushed19:16
ochosibluesabre-tmp: i don't mind, but it increases the workload19:16
bluesabre-tmpyeah19:16
elfybut with -dev then things would take ages to get on the ppa 19:16
knomei would vote for -dev, we shouldn't make it too easy to "mess up" with PPA's19:16
ochosiand might get ppl to just push stuff to their private PPAs19:16
knomeelfy, not really, currently ochosi and bluesabre-tmp are members19:16
bluesabre-tmp^19:17
elfymmm19:17
knomei'd also suggest at least thinking to add Unit193 and Noskcaj 19:17
bluesabre-tmp+219:17
elfywell - most of the things that I ended up testing weren't by any of those that have been named19:17
Unit193bluesabre-tmp: You've been rejected. :(19:17
knomeochosi, do you think there would be people who we'd like/trust to push to the PPA, but don't want to give "all branches" permissions?19:18
elfyso I would STILL end up with a personall PPA19:18
slickymasterbrainwash made a few19:18
ochosiknome: brainwash has only been around for one cycle, but he put lots of stuff in his PPA for testing19:18
Unit193slickymaster: They could be pretty quickly copied.19:18
knomeelfy, the point is, those people weren't in that team when we needed them to be19:18
bluesabre-tmpyeah, we can sponsor ppa uploads as needed19:18
ochosiright19:18
knomeso we've been bottlenecking on that19:18
knomei don't mind another team, if there is justification for it19:19
Unit193ochosi: We'd want to make sure to stress to the packagers to not go willie-nillie with it.19:19
bluesabre-tmp+119:19
knomei just don't want yet another one just because we have one more task to do19:19
ochosiUnit193: sure, i agree19:19
knomeif we can delegate that to one of the current teams, great19:19
knomebluesabre-tmp, not sure what you're +1'ing ;)19:19
ochosiwell as long as it's not just bluesabre-tmp and me reviewing the PPA, i'm fine with -dev19:19
Unit193(Could almost use -team. :P )19:19
knomeUnit193, almost, but not really...19:19
ochosii just wanted to ensure that things are not slowed down because ppl are busy with stuff19:20
elfyochosi: which is my worry - at that point do we gain anything 19:20

elfyamigamagic: not now please 19:20
knomeamigamagic, can you please take it up after the meeting19:20
ochosiso if Unit193 and Noskcaj get added to -dev and agree to help reviewing and managing that i'm fine with that19:20
knomewe might just have quorum19:20

slickymasterlet's vote it19:22
ochosialthough, for me it depends on how many ppl are in -dv19:22
ochosi-dev i mean19:22
elfyknome: 2 of the people on -team weren't about for more or less the whole cycle 19:22
ochosiand how many want to help with that work19:22
knomeelfy, yeah, but we have quorum even with them counting ;)19:23
knomelet's make an assumption:19:23
Unit193Also, just because you technically can push to the branches, doesn't mean you should or will.19:23
knomeapproximately 2 of the people in -dev are always around19:23

knomepay elfy for his headset he bought to be able to take part in vUDS19:40
GridCube:)19:40
Unit193Xfce take donations?19:40
knomeUnit193, i guess, but what's the point, they aren't very active? :|19:41
elfyreally really don't want that - thanks though :)19:41
knomeok, then let's not vote19:41
knomei was just thinking... :)19:41
elfythanks for the thought :)19:41
knomei can keep the money on hold still, but i'd rather get it moving sooner or later19:41
bluesabre-tmpany server costs that xubuntu eats?19:41
ochosinot really19:41
Unit193knome: Still wouldn't be here without them, even though I'd like them to be active I'm thankful that they're still there.19:41
ochosixfce still can't accept donations i think19:41
ochosibut i can work on that19:41
knomebluesabre-tmp, shimmer is hosted on xfce19:41
knomebluesabre-tmp, but that's not exactly xubuntu19:42
knomeand i doubt it adds to their costs..19:42

knomewe should probably mention it in the processes page that the one adding the meeting minutes should also update the team updates page.19:50
knomeand if it's the first meeting of the month, cycle the monthly pages19:50
knome#topic Use a common area for detailed discussions notes such as Trello19:50
knomehttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/Roadmap/Specifications/U/Trello%20Communication19:51
knomeelfy, 19:51
Unit193I tended to ignore it. :/19:51
knomeUnit193, wait, when did you add the meeting minutes? ;)19:51
slickymasterI felt it useful19:51
* GridCube leaves19:51
pleia2if it's valuable to folks, I think trello is lovely to use, but I have my own todo lists so "update trello" tends to land there :)19:52
elfyok - so I was just thinking about us communicating a bit better - I spent a lot of time last cycle - going over the same ground - I really don't want to do that again19:52
knomebesides, that link is bogus19:52
slickymasterand elfy and I did use it quite a lot in -qa19:52
ochosiyeah, trello is very good to use19:52
elfyand it worked for those of -qa that did use it 19:52
bluesabre-tmpelfy, you should harrass everyone with !team19:52
bluesabre-tmp:D19:52
knomeelfy, is it about communication about "what do we need to do (generally)" ?19:52
elfywhy?19:52
knomeelfy, or specific action items people need to take?19:53
ochosieven for managing progress, i'd actually prefer it to the clunky blueprints on launchpad (if it were integrated in launchpad)19:53
knomethe positive side to LP is the good status page.19:53
elfyit's more general - there's not anywhere other than blueprints to actually write anything - and that would soon be a nightmare19:53
Unit193ochosi: Nah, if it were on LP, it'd be far slower.19:54
knomeelfy, want to expand the spec for next week?19:54
ochosiUnit193: hehe, yeah, there we go :p19:54
knomeelfy, eg. briefly cover what we would use it for, and maybe some action screenshots19:54
elfyok19:54
knomecheers19:54
ochosicool19:54
elfybut if we don't do that - we do need to do something19:55
knome#action elfy to extend the Trello spec, discussion to follow19:55
meetingologyACTION: elfy to extend the Trello spec, discussion to follow19:55
knomeelfy, yep, anything that works for the team :)19:55
ochositrellolo19:55
knomeokay, and now the item you have all been waiting for19:55
knome#topic Project future: New project lead, council, or something else? 19:55
ochosiincecream?19:55
knomewb Unit193 ;)19:55
ochosiUnit193: feeling so nervous..?19:56
elfytoo late - we voted Unit193 in :p19:56
knomeyou have just voted the next XPL19:56
knomeyep19:56
knometoo bad :|19:56
knomejoking aside...19:56
pleia2lol19:56
knomei think we should organize a call for XPL nominations19:56
slickymasterthe decison was taken long ago in the backstages19:56
pleia2https://launchpad.net/~xubuntu-team/+members19:56
knomethere's a specific reason why i say this...19:57
elfyknome: and how long will we wait for that19:57
knomei'll do the call at latest on monday19:57
pleia2now that our team is more than 4 people, I think we could actually support a small council if we wanted to go that route19:57
knomethen some time to gather nominations19:57
* knome refrains from disclosing the reason19:57
knome...but other people can.19:57
* elfy thinks we should have called earlier19:57
knomeelfy, would have been madness to do that during the release19:58
ochosi+119:58
knomeit has always gone like this19:58
ochosielfy: knome is still here ;)19:58
elfyyea - I know that :)19:58
ochosiso it's his problem if there's no new xpl, he'll just have to stay :D19:58
pleia2time machines ftw19:58
knomehah19:58
knomewell, if no nominations are sent...19:58
knomethen we will have to investigate other options19:59
* pleia2 nods19:59
ochosiafter loooong consideration and discussions...19:59
knomebut as pleia2 said... yes, we could sustain a council19:59
ochosii've started to consider applying for the terrible terrible burden that knome has been carrying for us19:59
knome:)20:00
pleia2:D20:00
Unit193Well that could solve that.20:00
ochosithere were a few subsequent discussions with bluesabre 20:00
ochosi(who unfortunately left the meeting as it seems)20:00
ochosiso anyway, we can talk about that when he's around again i guess20:01
knomeyeah20:01
knomeanyway... i would very much like to see a "single" XPL instead of council20:01
knomehey bluesabre-tmp!20:01
ochosioh, speak of the devil20:01
elfyI would prefer to see a single one as well if we can 20:01
pleia2knome: me too!20:02
knomei would also say that we need to lessen the burden20:02
ochosiyes, ok, so now that bluesabre-tmp is around again20:02
bluesabre-tmpok, what did I miss?20:02
knomeif at all possible20:02
knomebluesabre-tmp, you're the new XPL20:02
knomebluesabre-tmp, just voted on that20:02
pleia2haha20:02
ochosibluesabre-tmp: i can pastebin you the backlog20:02
bluesabre-tmpO.o20:02
ochosior you can check the online-log20:02
slickymasterochosi propsed you and we all agreed20:02
bluesabre-tmpochosi: sure, trying to navigate as little as possible since I'm testhering on my phone20:03
slickymaster*proposed20:03
pleia2seriously though, knome will do call for nominations by monday20:04
elfyknome: so how will we lessen the burden?20:04
knomepasted to bluesabre-tmp's PM20:04
knomeso basically,20:04
knomewell that's one of the things to do imo ^20:04
knomewe need to rethink "who" is it who does all the heavy lifting20:04
knometo me, it feels natural that the -release team had a bit more responsbility, but also power20:04
knomeyes, i will.20:04
knomerelease team could take some of the paperwork20:04
knomethat is, filing exception bugs20:04
knomei've been cooperating a lot in -release, and have been happy to see elfy do that as well20:05
elfythey're not too bad in there ;)20:06
bluesabre-tmp:)20:06
knomemaybe there could be team members who would make sure the blueprints are up-to-date20:06
knomeor whatever method we are using20:06
elfycan't team leads do their blueprints?20:06
knomeideally, all people would manage their own work items20:06
pleia2yeah, I could do a much better job of my blueprints20:06
knomesure, that works as well if it... works20:06
ochosiyeah, i think it's hard to formalize that process20:06
ochosii mean we can say, we create a subset of ppl who handle blueprints20:07
knomeochosi, since you have been pondering this, is there something else you are afraid of?20:07
elfywell I'm happy enough to do qa ones20:07
knomei don't think it's a bad idea that everybody *can*20:07
ochosiafter thinking more about it, not that much20:07
ochosithere's just stuff that you've been doing that i haven't done often (like chairing meetings)20:07
knomeif a work item is assigned to [user], user should make sure it's updated20:07
ochosiand you're irc-ier than me20:07
knomefor chairing meetings, i'd really love to see a rotating chair or something20:08
ochosiyeah...20:08
ochosiwould be cool20:08
* elfy hates driving the bot 20:08
ochosi:)20:08
knomei guess nobody likes it20:08
ochosii assume that too20:08
elfyit drives on the wrong side of the road :p20:08
bluesabre-tmpI'm usually not able to make it to these mettings20:08
bluesabre-tmp*meetings20:08
knomebluesabre-tmp, then we should reschedule20:09
Unit193I tend to miss the beginning.20:09
knomei've no problem with varying meeting times20:09
knomewe can even let the chair mostly decide the time.20:09
ochosiyeah20:09
ochosiwe can have them cycle around a bit20:09
knomewell take all team leaders, or team members20:09
ochosito make sure all team members can attend once a month at least20:09
bluesabre-tmphm, this sounds like a good idea20:09
knomecycle through them evenly20:09
knomewhen it's your turn, schedule how you wish20:09
knomeand others will, or won't, be available20:10
elfymmm not sure about that20:10
ochosimakes chairing more comfortable20:10
knomeit's not a huge issue that everybody is not being able to make it20:10
knomewe have the meeting minutes20:10
knomeand we have the mailing list20:10
slickymasteris there any channel where one could do some sort of testdrives knome?20:10
ochosiyeah, and ppl are around anyway20:10
knomeslickymaster, #meetingology20:10
slickymasterok20:10
knomeelfy, express your concerns :)20:10
* elfy test drives the bot in FC meetings sometimes 20:11
elfyhang on - just getting the words right :)20:11
elfyI'd worry about meetings at that point end up being empty - nothing would get done 20:11
elfyin time20:12
knomewell,20:12
knomeit'd be good practice to make sure at least somebody is able to make it ;)20:12
elfyhow about a straw poll with a doodle poll of general times 20:12
knomewe've done that too many times IMO20:12
knomeany time always seems to be perfect20:12
knomethen when we start running the meetings at that time, people can't come20:12
knomewhich is one of the reason why i think a "moving target" could work just as well...20:13
ochosi+120:13
elfysecond thought - a -team mailing list - at least then we'd be able to have targetted discussions20:13
bluesabre-tmp+120:13
knomeelfy, i could +1 that20:13
bluesabre-tmpI like that idea20:13
knomewould *only* team members be allowed to send?20:13
elfyyep20:13
elfylike a 'council' list 20:14
knomebecause if not, soon it would become xubuntu-dev-team-please-include-libreoffice20:14
ochosihuhu20:14
elfyexactly 20:14
bluesabre-tmphah20:14
knomewhat do others think?20:14
knomepleia2, i know you're opposed to redundant infrastructure, so i want your opinion20:14
elfythen at that point - we'd have 'votes' on issues that can be taken to meetings whatever time they are20:14
ochosiwe can give it a try20:14
elfyor 20:15
knome#action knome to send a call for new XPL's to the -devel mailing list20:15
meetingologyACTION: knome to send a call for new XPL's to the -devel mailing list20:15
knomeelfy, yeah?20:16
elfyif we do go to something like trello - we could make that private20:16
knomewell, that's a bit meh20:16
knomeor maybe not20:16
bluesabre-tmptrello does do emails notifications20:16
elfyyea20:16
knomebluesabre-tmp, yeah, but is it about all changes?20:16
knomei don't want dumb diffs :(20:16
knomei want well-written, thought out mails20:17
bluesabre-tmpit's "hey, you've missed 4 updates!"20:17
elfyknome: that 20:17
slickymastertheoretically elfy's idea has potential20:17
bluesabre-tmpI know because ochosi keep updating a trello that I should be contributing to20:17
knomebluesabre-tmp, yeah, that's just email "crap"20:17
knomeeven if it was about meaningful things20:17
elfyI'd be inclined to m/l rather than trello for team stuff though20:17
knomeanother idea is20:17
knomeadd some moderators and take out the whip at -devel mailing list20:18
* Unit193 would be a bad choice.20:18
elfydon't like that idea 20:18
knomewe can make people's mails autoadded to moderation queue by email address20:18
knomei think we need to do $something for the -devel list nonetheless20:18
knomeespecially if we create a -team mailing list20:18
knomebecause at that point, -devel could very easily turn into -feature-requests20:19
knomei'm still waiting for any input from pleia2 :)20:19
pleia2sorry20:19
knomenp20:19
elfynot really - most of the stuff that goes to -devel is general 20:19
elfyly what it should be - call's etc 20:20
knomeelfy, most of the stuff there now is stuff that could be in -users20:20
pleia2it's not like -devel is overwhelming20:20
slickymasteryes, it could perfectley land on xubuntu mailing list20:20
knomewell, most of the stuff by non-team-members..20:20
elfysince release I'd agree 20:20
knomedo we want to design a tag for team communication?20:21
knomepleia2, ^20:21
elfypleia2: what we were discussing was a new private m/l for -team20:21
pleia2elfy: yeah20:21
knomei know anybody can use that, but...20:21
knomemight be possible to autosend to moderation queue if it's not from team member emails20:21
pleia2so launchpad makes it very easy for us to create a private list there20:21
elfyknome: well - I did for a while mail the list with [TEAM] in the subject 20:21
knomepleia2, launchpad lists are meh.20:22
ochosiholy crap, there is a scorpion in our appartment (no kidding!)20:22
elfygot a couple of replies20:22
ochosibbabl20:22
elfygood lord 20:22
pleia2knome: I don't know that we'd need it for a lot anyway :) mostly we just talk here tbh20:22
knomepleia2, i'd just make IS create another20:22
bluesabre-tmpochosi is not going to make it20:22
knomewell, related to this20:22
knomeit was brought up by lionel (mrpouit) that it's getting harder and harder for him to follow/help with development since he's now a lot less in IRC20:22
Unit193Uhh.  I'm still stuck at where he said "scorpion"...20:22
knomeso i think we are being (partly unconsciously) in exclusive20:23
knome-in20:23
knomepleia2, send meeting minutes there?20:24
knomepleia2, run votes there20:24
pleia2sure20:24
knomelet's do a quick, non-finally-decisive vote20:24
elfyknome: 20:24
Logan_yes hello is this a meeting thing20:24
knometo get a general idea what people think20:25
knomeLogan_, yes, very much20:25
knomeelfy, 20:25
elfyif we went to -team m/l we could have -release team as the moderators 20:25
bluesabre-tmphey Logan_ :)20:25
bluesabre-tmpoh yeah, knome, my -release is about to expire, and it said to message you20:25
elfyor something - so it's not just another XPL task20:25
knomeelfy, yes, though we wouldn't need much20:25
elfybluesabre-tmp: he knows :)20:25
knomebluesabre-tmp, yep, just a sec20:25

elfyas long as people are ok with it of course20:30

pleia2knome: we should chat re: website at some point though, if you are no xpl, you may want that hat :)20:30
knomei don't think we are generally voting about (non-project) team leads20:30
knomepleia2, we can20:30
knomei don't want anything in 6 months20:30
knomebut i'm by tentatively open for stuff after that20:31
bluesabre-tmpI'd be willing to apply for technical lead, not sure if others are currently interested20:31
knomemhm,20:31
knomei would approve that direction20:32
knomehaving a technical lead that's around would also help with the XPL burden20:32

knomeslickymaster, around?21:37
knomeXubuntu/Leaders updated21:40
knomeochosi, your TZ as well21:40
ochosiknome: the TZ is the same though21:42
knomeyeah ;)21:42
ochosiand it'll change again in less time than lies behind us when it wasn't correct :)21:42
knomemaybe we should just stick to UTC+bleh timezones.21:43
knomewhich would be more useful anyway21:43
ochosiyeah21:43
knomefeel free to do that change if you please21:43
slickymasterknome, I am now21:47
knomeslickymaster, you're listed in Xubunut/Leaders now.21:48

knome"it's out": https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/xubuntu-devel/2014-April/010087.html22:15
ochosiupdated leaders/tz22:20
ochosiis that what you had in mind, knome ^ ?22:21
knomethat looks good22:22
knomethough DST is meh22:22
knome;)22:22
knomejust saying...22:22
ochosiyeah, not really my fault :)22:22
knomeyep22:23
ochosiam i the only one who thinks it's a bit odd that previous leaders start from oldest to newest?22:25
knomeyou can switch that if you wish22:25
knomei don't think it matters much22:25
ochosiyeah, probably not22:25
ochosijust took me a while to figure out what the sorting was22:25
knomemore mail @ -devel22:27
knomeochosi, re: sort order, i think it made most sense if it was ordered by "from" time22:29
knomebut when did lionel begin his tech lead journey?22:29
ochosiyeah, well, let's just leave it for now22:33
ochosiit really isn't as important, as you correctly said22:33
ochosithis is actually a bit sucky: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/130691722:49
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1306917 in light-locker-settings (Ubuntu) "light-locker: screen always automatically locked" [Undecided,Confirmed]22:49
ochosiseems it's just a small fluke in one of our config files though22:49
ochosior: lls not reading it correctly22:50
brainwash_ochosi: so you want to reward people for fixing the annoying post release bugs instead of fixing them yourself? :D22:59
ochosibrainwash_: could be a nice way of getting more/new ppl involved22:59
brainwash_we could use crypto currency for this purpose22:59

ochosinobody can ever do/fix everything themselves22:59
knomei'll disapprove that.22:59
