barrylast week: debconf15:03
barrythis week: short week due to usa holiday.  python issue 22327 (test_gdb failures on utopic).  python-colorama 0.3.1-1.  more experimentation with git-based package maintenance.15:03
barrydone15:04
stgraberbarry: git-based package maintenance using git-dpm, dgit or something else?15:04
barrystgraber: i'm looking at both git-dpm and gbp-pq.  still trying to find good info on dgit ;)15:05
bhueyfolks15:05
barrystgraber: see the debian-python archives for more details15:05
caribouI've started on git-dpm as well15:05
cjwatsondgit is kind of orthogonal to the other two15:05
barryyeah15:06
cjwatsonbarry: you could grab the video of Ian's talk at debconf15:06
barrycjwatson: has it been posted yet?  i couldn't find it15:06
slangasekpresumably not; I believe the disks are in transit15:06
* barry nods15:06
infinitybarry: There's also git-debcherry, which Manoj tried very hard to sell me on.15:06
slangasekfwiw one of the conclusions from that session was that dgit is inadequate if you want 3.0 (quilt)-ish packages15:06
cjwatsonhm, not in git-annex debconf-share, no15:06
cjwatson*currently inadequate, I think15:07
barryinfinity: i heard about that too, but could find precious little docs on it15:07
cjwatsonbarry: https://people.debian.org/~srivasta/Serializing_Git_Branches.pdf15:07
stgraberbarry: ok. I'm using git-dpm to maintain LXC (trusty, utopic, daily-ppa, stable-ppa), it's been working very nicely to share packaging changes between branches and to cherry-pick upstream fixes15:07
barrythanks!15:07
cjwatsonthat's Manoj's take on it, anyway.  I've heard the claim that he's incorrect about some of how git-dpm works there.  Haven't yet had the time to wade through that PDF15:07
slangasekgit-debcherry does in no way provide the "repo matches the archive" semantics; but it may be the pairing to make dgit behave more nicely for 3.0 (quilt)15:07
barrycjwatson uses git-dpm for six and i generally like it too.  i've had more success with -dpm than gbp-pq for managing quilt patches, but it too has some odd corners15:08
cjwatsonThere is definitely an extent where you have to pick which failure modes you care least about15:09
barryyep :)15:09
barryi have one more "complicated-ish" test to run then i'll have a big long posting for d-p@15:09
slangasekbhuey:15:09
cariboubarry: pls share if possible15:10
barryas an aside, git-dpm is one big shell script :-o15:10

pleia2#topic Documentation team17:04
* balloons had no idea this was happening.. zzz17:04
balloonsI see it on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommunityCouncilAgenda17:04
GunnarHjelfy: Yeah, it's much focus on the web site presentation right now.17:05
pleia2so we just do these check ins once a cycle to see how the team is doing and if there is any way we can help17:05
pleia2with my Doc team hat on, things are running more smoothly these days, even if the team still struggles to get active contributors to actually update the docs17:06
pleia2GunnarHj: thoughts?17:06
elfywell that's at least 50% good then :)17:06
GunnarHjAs regards the desktop documentation, I feel we are lucky there are almost no visible changes in utopic.17:06
* pleia2 nods17:07
elfyI assume that UI changes make it all a lot harder to get done17:07
GunnarHjelfy: Yes, basically the docs is almost completely associated with how you do things with the GUIs.17:08
* mhall119 is here now17:08
elfyGunnarHj: and the bottleneck is getting suitable screenshots in good time?17:09
mhall119pleia2: (with your docs team hat on) are there specific pages/sections we can promote work on during Global Jam?17:09
pleia2mhall119: just a once through of the docs in general would be helpful, even if people just submit bug reports17:10
mhall119pleia2: specifics would be more likely to get worked on17:10
GunnarHjelfy: That often happens as a last minute thing. But writing new docs is what takes most time.17:10
pleia2I can take a look at the global jam docs page and make sure the instructions are there17:10
mhall119pleia2: that would be great, thanks17:10
pleia2mhall119: I'll also send a mail to the list, maybe someone else has ideas re: specific pages17:10
elfyGunnarHj: we have the same issue with Xubuntu docs tbh17:11
mhall119thanks, the more specific items we can get across the board the easier it will be for loco teams to pick one to work on17:11
pleia2yeah, the real bottleneck is tiny team doing all the work17:11
mhall119GunnarHj: is there an automated way of gathering screenshots?17:11
GunnarHjThere is not much time left for utopic. As regards desktop docs, I'm thinking of fixing a few bugs and ship a package that will be very similar to the trusty one.17:11
elfyI have firsthand experience of that pleia2 :p17:11
GunnarHjmhall119: No automation that works.17:12
pleia2mhall119: we have a script, just needs to be tweaked each release17:12
pleia2so it often just gets done by hand17:12
mhall119pleia2: is there a lot of tweaking needed each release?17:12
pleia2I don't know17:12
GunnarHjmhall119: We just don't use it. ;)17:13
pleia2yeah, I think the people who knew how it works have moved on17:13
pleia2anyway, I don't think there are any real issues with the team at this point, just typical more people needed kind of thing :)17:14
mhall119is there any pro-active recruitment going on?17:15
GunnarHjpleia2: I agree.17:15
mhall119or just trying to retain people who show up and show interest?17:15
pleia2mhall119: sometimes I go to fossetcon and tell people to contribute to docs ;)17:15
pleia2aside from my blog posts here and there, I don't think there's a whole lot of active recruitment, mostly just people who show up17:16
mhall119sometimes eh? that's impressive, with it being the first one ever :-P17:16
pleia2which is a vast improvement from where things were last year, when people were still being ignored when they showed up (no one to welcome them)17:16
pleia2everyone who was involved back then was too busy working to onboard17:16
elfythat's good17:16
GunnarHjWe do welcome anyone who shows an interest in contributing. We are not very busy doing so, though. ;)17:17
pleia2yeah17:17
elfyI know at least one person who just gave up trying to get involved in the past17:17
GunnarHjelfy: Can't speak for the past.17:17
elfyso actually being proactive is good17:18
pleia2even I gave up in the past ;)17:18
elfy:)17:18
pleia2ok, time to move on to quality team?17:19
pleia2thanks GunnarHj :)17:19
GunnarHjpleia2: No problem.17:19
elfyif things are moving forward with docs then I'm \o/17:19
pleia2#topic Quality team17:19
mhall119me too17:19
pleia2balloons: hey hey, how are things going?17:19
pleia2(and anyone else here from quality :))17:19
elfyo/17:19
elfy:)17:19
* mhall119 pokes balloons 17:21
mhall119wake up!17:21
balloonsI'm here, I'm here17:21
elfywelcome balloons :)17:21
elfyso how's quality - other than Xubuntu going :)17:22
balloonsI don't think anyone from quality will show as they most likely also didn't know about this time :-)17:22
* elfy sadly wanders off not being anything to do with quality 17:22
balloonsat any rate, quality goes well from a test writing perspective. We've maintained and expanded our testcases well as things have changed.17:23
balloonsFrom the test result perspective, I know all flavors are struggling for testers during milestones17:23
pleia2we sent an email notifying in April, but didn't send a follow up one, sorry about that17:23
balloonsubuntu hasn't had any milestones this cycle, so it remains to be seen what sort of response we will have17:23
* pleia2 nods17:24
pleia2I know life has gotten in the way of my own testing this cycle :\17:24
elfyI don't often look at other peoples tracker results - is there much being reported for Ubuntu17:24
mhall119balloons: do other flavors use the same testing infrastructure and technology as touch and unity desktop?17:24
balloonsIn general I think one factor is the intimidation of tracker on folks; and the fact we haven't done any development effort on it in some time17:25
elfymhall119: xubuntu does it what it can - but autopilot doesn't work for the majority of our apps17:25
elfywe use the tracker to good effect when there is actually testing being done17:25
balloonsmhall119, there is a base suite of AP tests for the installer than runs against all flavors, but otherwise there is no automated testing for flavors really17:25
balloonsotherwise yes the teams use the same setup. Everyone uses the tracker for manual result reporting, but they are not obligated to do so. So they can do other efforts outside of it, and I believe KDE does17:26
mhall119AP is autopilot or autopackage?17:26
* elfy uses jenkins for our image tests17:26
balloonssorry, kubuntu ;-)17:26
balloonsthat said, for milestones the release team requires use of the tracker17:27
balloonsmhall119, AP is autopilot, sorry17:27
balloonson the autopackage side of things, there isn't much general quality community involvement afaik. It's generally very specific and done by upstreams or martin and jean-baptiste17:28
balloonswe had a small push, but autopackage tests are better written by an upstream or package maintainer17:28
mhall119that makes sense17:29
mhall119does AP work against Kubuntu and Xubuntu apps? Being Qt4/5 and Gtk2 respectively?17:29
elfynot for us17:30
* mhall119 thinks most Xubuntu stuff is Gtk2 still17:30
mhall119elfy: what's the cause of it not working?17:30
elfynot sure of the mix tbh mhall11917:30
elfyI've no idea tbh - not a coder at all17:30
balloonsmhall119, for gtk2 apps there has been issues with trying to introspect them. Qt apps are MUCH nicer and respond properly17:31
elfyballoons would have a better idea of the why than me17:31
elfyand he did :)17:31
balloonson the gtk3 side, I'm not sure we have any gtk3 app tests actually. gtk dbus sessions like to spawn lots of useless and duplicate objects17:32
balloonsI believe gtk3 is better in this regard17:32
elfymhall119: we had someone beginning to look for us - but r/l got in the way so it's been shelved temporarily17:32
balloonsthat said, we do have a small set of apps that do work under gtk217:33
balloonselfy is right in that none of the apps under xubuntu will allow themselves to be introspected.17:33
balloonsunless they want to switch to gnome apps :-)17:34
elfy...17:34
pleia2hah17:34
pleia2so is there anything we can help with at this point, or are things pretty much going along smoothly?17:36
elfyfrom my perspective it's going as smoothly as it could without me having a bunch of people on tap :)17:36
pleia2I am noticing a trend...17:36
elfy:)17:37
elfyfunnily enough I notice the same trend17:37
balloonsI would agree. It's sad that autopilot isn't a good solution for many flavors. I guess it might be useful to try and work with the kubuntu folks a bit more, since it should work for them17:37
* pleia2 nods17:37
=== JanC_ is now known as JanC
balloonsin general I would like to see a bigger shift to automation from manual. But yea, I've been very pleased with the maintenance of the testsuites. Just need bodies to run them :-)17:38
balloonsso yea, promoting things like global jam would help with that17:39
balloonsI think that's the biggest thing you could do17:39
balloonsotherwise, thanks for checking in. I'll try and mark my calendar next time so it's not a surprise17:40
pleia2thanks balloons17:40
elfynext time we'll remember to remind the week before as well :)17:40
elfythanks balloons17:40

belkinsaThe wiki page for the Review Board is available here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Membership/Boards22:05
* Letozaf_ thanks everyone :)22:05
belkinsaWe will attempt to get through all of the applicants that have added themselves to that list before today's meeting. If we are unable to make it through the entire list due to time constraints, then at the next meeting we will pick up where we left off.22:05
belkinsahe format for the meeting is as follows: We will go through the list of applicants one by one, by date of application (FIFO).22:05
belkinsaThe*22:05
popeyoh hey Letozaf_ !22:05
belkinsaEach applicant should introduce themselves (1-5 sentences) and provide links to their Ubuntu Wiki page. After the introduction the members of the Membership Review Board will review the pages and, if needed, ask the applicant further questions.22:05
Letozaf_popey, hi22:05
belkinsaDuring this time it is encouraged for other members of the community to show their support for the applicant. Do not be alarmed if the members of the Membership Review Board are quiet during this time; they are most likely reading wiki/launchpad/forum/other pages and deciding how they are going to vote.22:06
belkinsaWhen the board is ready to vote, they will publicly vote in the channel with either +1, 0, or -1 (for membership, abstain, and against membership, respectively). If the sum of those numbers is positive, then the applicant is now an official Ubuntu member! (feel free congratulate them!)22:06

Letozaf_cyphermox_, well I must say that now days it's crazy just to think to program in COBOL :P22:10
Letozaf_balloons, hello22:11
cyphermox_popey: should we restart the vote to have a clear trail or just deal with the textual logs?22:11
balloonsI didn't know you did COBOL Letozaf_.. me too :-)22:11
popeyI wouldn't. The channel is clearly logged.22:11
cyphermox_yes22:11
Letozaf_balloons, well I wouldn't suggest to use it :P22:11
