[21:22] <zequence_> Rosco2: I came to think about yet another possibility - creating a new team for Debian Multimedia, like ubuntustudio-bugs. Since they have a different set of packages to us
[21:22] <zequence_> Rosco2: Possibly, we could just join that team instead
[21:23] <zequence_> Rosco2: Also, lp has an API. Been a while since I tried using it. Might be possible to make subscriptions with a script, which would save a lot of time
[21:24] <zequence> we could rename ubuntustudio-bugs debian-multimedia-bugs. If we want to do that
[21:25] <zequence> And then create a new team again called ubuntustudio-bugs. All though, if a script could take care of package subscriptions, it would not be a lot of work just creating a new team from scratch, and then do the subscriptions
[21:25] <zequence> Well, just thinking out loud
[21:26] <Rosco2> Hmmm. I had been thinking of asking if we could have a small number join the existing Debian Multimedia team on LP.
[21:27] <zequence> Rosco2: Does it subscribe to packages?
[21:27] <Rosco2> That was based on the fact that we could encourage people to join US-bugs, but they could only do basic triage
[21:28] <Rosco2> I thing the Deb-maint team are listed as the maintainer of the packages
[21:29] <Rosco2> I was going to ask them if they then have the power to set importance and extra stuff that only "Bug Control" can do.
[21:30] <zequence> Ah, right
[21:31] <Rosco2> I am listed as maintainer for one package, but I can't do much, so I am not sure
[21:32] <Rosco2> API would be useful for the meta packages we know we are interested in.
[21:33] <Rosco2> But then I just started looking at ubuntustudio-desktop, and it has lots of stuff we don't need to care about like gedit
[21:34] <Rosco2> But some stuff we probably do like alsa-utils
[21:36] <Rosco2> I will have a look, and see if it helps with photography etc.
[21:40] <zequence> Rosco2: DE stuff is not something we should care about at all
[21:40] <zequence> Rosco2: Only the multimedia metas
[21:40] <zequence> ..as we don't really have our own DE, though ours is slightly custom
[21:41] <Rosco2> Yeah - you are right. Skipping that one.
[21:42] <zequence> Our main concern is of course the multimedia packages we distribute, while I could see a point in keeping an eye out for a bigger scope. I would assume debian-multimedia maintains everything there, except for a few things, like pulseaudio
[21:46] <zequence> Pulseaudio already gest a lot of attention, so we don't really need to do much there, except for jack - pulseaudio integration.
[21:47] <Rosco2> I spotted a few packages that come up in audio discussions like pavucontrol & apps like audacious.
[21:49] <Rosco2> Maybe I will put it last in the pile incase they are not listed in the other multimedia metas
[21:49] <Rosco2> Funny you mention Pulesaudio.
[21:49] <Rosco2> I subscribed to that and there a hundreds of bugs.
[21:50] <zequence> Rosco2: I suppose any multimedia application in the desktop meta already gets attention. Not sure what would be best there.
[21:50] <zequence> pulseaudio is important of course, since it's a core component
[21:51] <Rosco2> As the PA - Jack bridge was part of the PA source I was forced to get bugs for the whole lot.
[21:51] <zequence> Yeah
[21:51] <Rosco2> Will try some of the filters to whittle it down
[21:52] <Rosco2> I think you can filter on importance or something like that.
[21:53] <zequence> Rosco2: Ah, I remember when trying out the PPA, that getting info on bugs is pretty easy. But, that doesn't help forwarding them, unless someone sets up a bot to forward stuff.
[21:54] <zequence> Also, we could set up a mail list for that team
[21:55] <zequence> We used to have a ubuntustudio-bugs at list.ubuntu for a little while, and I tried using that, but came to the conclusion at the time that it wasn't very practical and had that mail list deleted
[21:56] <zequence> API, not PPA :P
[21:56] <zequence> It's a bit too late in the evening for me
[21:56] <zequence> I'm turning in. Catch you later
[21:57] <Rosco2> Mailing list is probably good if the team builds up, and we want to help teach each other how to triage
[21:57] <Rosco2> Yeah - same here - busy day tomorrow
