| dholbach | good morning | 07:40 |
|---|---|---|
| dholbach | pleia2, elfy: so https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Unity8DesktopIso suggests using "disks" for burning an ISO | 07:58 |
| dholbach | balloons, ^ | 07:58 |
| elfy | morning dholbach :) | 08:01 |
| dholbach | hola dpm | 08:11 |
| dpm | morning dholbach | 08:11 |
| elfy | dholbach: thanks, that at least works from vivid, test will be from the other possibles :) | 08:17 |
| dholbach | excellent | 08:17 |
| dholbach | got the tip from seb128 :) | 08:18 |
| elfy | I guess that's installed in Ubuntu default - won't be in other flavours | 08:20 |
| elfy | but then neither is anything other than dd :D | 08:20 |
| dholbach | right :) | 08:21 |
| elfy | I didn't actually know you could do that with disks | 08:22 |
| dholbach | yeah, same here | 08:30 |
| elfy | dholbach: so that tool is one up on startup disk creator - it works from trusty :) | 09:26 |
| dholbach | yeehaw! | 09:26 |
| dholbach | now we just need to update all our docs /o\ | 09:26 |
| dholbach | balloons, ^ | 09:26 |
| czajkowski | aloha | 09:36 |
| elfy | morning czajkowski | 09:36 |
| dholbach | balloons, I don't know which pages should be updated | 10:56 |
| dholbach | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Jams/Testing probably? | 10:56 |
| dholbach | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UsingDevelopmentReleases | 10:57 |
| dholbach | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/Testdrive | 10:57 |
| knome | dholbach, updated https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/DevelopmentSetup yesterday | 10:57 |
| knome | but i got to run now, bbl | 10:58 |
| dholbach | ok, so http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-ubuntu should probably be updated as well | 10:58 |
| dholbach | I'll start a discussion on ubuntu-devel@ about this | 10:58 |
| dholbach | dpm, do you have time tomorrow at 11 for a call with asac? | 12:21 |
| dpm | dholbach, yeah, definitely | 12:21 |
| dholbach | great | 12:21 |
| knome | dholbach, we'll probably have to describe parts of that in the wiki as well but sure, never hurts to update that; it's linked from the main download page for ubuntu too | 16:19 |
| knome | dholbach, the problems with SDC have been more or less weird, eg. if you create a vivid disk in trusty with it, the image won't boot | 16:20 |
| dholbach | right | 16:20 |
| dholbach | I'm no expert | 16:20 |
| knome | more on that on #ubuntu-quality | 16:20 |
| dholbach | I just felt that this needs discussion | 16:20 |
| knome | me neither, but i've heard about problems with it | 16:21 |
| dholbach | that's why I started a thread on ubuntu-devel@ | 16:21 |
| dholbach | it'd be good to agree on something well-maintained together | 16:21 |
| dholbach | update docs and move on :) | 16:21 |
| knome | i've also heard people report that SDC and unetbootin work/don't work alternating release to release | 16:21 |
| knome | so yes, it would be very awesome if the documentation was fixed, but also SDC, so that it always worked | 16:22 |
| dholbach | elfy did some testing earlier | 16:22 |
| knome | yep | 16:22 |
| dholbach | SDC is? | 16:22 |
| knome | SDC = startup disk creator | 16:22 |
| dholbach | ah ok | 16:22 |
| knome | i've had successes and fails with it as well | 16:23 |
| knome | when it fails, i just use unetbootin (or the other way), but this can't be the way we tell people/testers to act :) | 16:23 |
| knome | but yeah, not complaining - i'm available for updating the wiki for this too when we have something laid out on a technical level that should just work (tm) | 16:24 |
| knome | brb | 16:25 |
| mhall119 | knome: https://launchpad.net/planet-ubuntu has been created and the branch attached to it | 16:48 |
| knome | mhall119, great | 16:53 |
| knome | mhall119, while i'm at it, was there something else you wanted done re: the CSS ? | 16:54 |
| mhall119 | knome: not me personally, I think this was all brought up because of some post overflowing to the right of the main column though | 16:55 |
| knome | mhall119, yep | 16:55 |
| knome | mhall119, there you go: https://code.launchpad.net/~knome/planet-ubuntu/prevent-image-overlap/+merge/247323 | 16:58 |
| knome | mhall119, do you want an IS ticket for that? | 17:03 |
| mhall119 | knome: not until it lands | 17:03 |
| knome | ok, but aren't the people approving/merging it the same people who push it to production? :) | 17:04 |
| knome | correct me if i'm wrong.. | 17:04 |
| mhall119 | knome: the web team (ant) will review/merge it, and then either he or you can file an RT for IS to push it | 17:04 |
| knome | ookay. | 17:05 |
| dholbach | all right - have a great rest of your day you hippies! | 17:53 |
| dholbach | see you tomorrow! | 17:53 |
| pleia2 | later dholbach | 17:54 |
| dholbach | bye pleia2 :) | 17:55 |
| popey | \o/ hippies | 18:05 |
| jcastro | heya hippies | 19:27 |
| jcastro | I'd like to add things to find-a-task | 19:27 |
| pleia2 | jcastro: https://github.com/ian-weisser/asknot | 19:30 |
| jcastro | ack, will try to PR something for this evening | 19:31 |
| pleia2 | hm, there's also https://code.launchpad.net/ubuntu-community-website | 19:31 |
| pleia2 | ian-weisser: where should folks submit patches | 19:31 |
| pleia2 | ? | 19:31 |
| pleia2 | er | 19:32 |
| pleia2 | https://code.launchpad.net/~ian-weisser/ubuntu-community-website/asknot-php | 19:32 |
| jcastro | this is for adding new tasks right? | 19:39 |
| jcastro | not like, working on asknot itself? | 19:39 |
| pleia2 | the tasks are inline with the code | 19:40 |
| pleia2 | http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ian-weisser/ubuntu-community-website/asknot-php/view/head:/index.php | 19:40 |
| knome | pleia2, i was told to "tell people" | 19:52 |
| knome | jcastro, ^ | 19:52 |
| pleia2 | knome: bug report? | 19:52 |
| knome | it isn't maintained in a branch, the content in production is in a database | 19:52 |
| pleia2 | derp | 19:52 |
| knome | bug report or ping mhall119 i guess | 19:52 |
| knome | yes | 19:52 |
| jcastro | k | 19:52 |
| knome | very | 19:52 |
| mhall119 | pleia2: that branch isn't used, the data is in a Wordpress page so any editor of the website can add to it | 20:02 |
| mhall119 | so I believe any member of ~ubuntu-community-website-admins can do it | 20:03 |
| knome | how's the code changes managed? | 20:04 |
| knome | is it a plugin or just a page template? | 20:04 |
| knome | how do people contribute to that/the CSS? | 20:05 |
| mhall119 | knome: just a page template | 20:06 |
| mhall119 | knome: the CSS is an uploaded media file. We might want to roll that into the theme branch though, as it shouldn't be updated as frequently and it's a bit of a hack to use WP's uploads for it | 20:06 |
| knome | yes... | 20:07 |
| knome | so the page template is maintained with the theme as well? | 20:07 |
| knome | where does that live? | 20:07 |
| mhall119 | knome: the page uses the default template, nothing special about it for find-a-task | 20:07 |
| mhall119 | the page's content is maintained through the Wordpress admin interface | 20:08 |
| mhall119 | and it's that content that powers find-a-task | 20:08 |
| knome | is it echoing in here? :) | 20:08 |
| knome | i guess fair enough if the team managing it is big enough.. though currently, it's a bit hard to understand the scope of the tasks | 20:08 |
| knome | i mean, if only there was an index of all tasks and their destinations and description available... | 20:09 |
| mhall119 | well....it's in the page source | 20:10 |
| knome | which is not publicly available | 20:10 |
| mhall119 | ctrl+u | 20:11 |
| knome | and didn't you just say it is in the database? :) | 20:11 |
| pleia2 | the browser page source | 20:11 |
| knome | well, right... | 20:11 |
| knome | eh, http://community.ubuntu.com/contribute/quality/ is pointing to an nonexistent image file on facebook | 20:19 |
| pleia2 | knome: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-community-website/ | 20:22 |
| pleia2 | dholbach usually fixes things | 20:22 |
| knome | well bah, | 20:22 |
| pleia2 | I watch it too so I can confirm bugs | 20:22 |
| knome | we need a bigger overhaul of the page at some time soon | 20:23 |
| knome | so it's probably not a biggie to have the fail for a few more days | 20:23 |
| hggdh | have you seen http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.os.openbsd.misc/219461 ? | 20:39 |
| balloons | knome, pleia2 I filed https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-community-website/+bug/1413739 to generally overhaul the section | 20:41 |
| * balloons noticed there is no bugbot here | 20:42 | |
| knome | ask for one from Unit193 | 20:42 |
| jcastro | popey, hey so, do you know anyone who's gone from btrfs raid to btrfs jbod (single)? | 20:52 |
| popey | uhm | 20:54 |
| popey | not that I can think of | 20:54 |
| * ian-weisser wakes up | 21:18 | |
| ian-weisser | -snort- | 21:18 |
| balloons | ::yawn:: ian-weisser ? | 21:19 |
| ian-weisser | jcastro: mhall119 really just needs to know the four items you want to add for each Find-a-Task role: Category, Role name, Very short description, Landing URL. | 21:20 |
| jcastro | oh ok | 21:20 |
| jcastro | that's way easier | 21:20 |
| ian-weisser | Anyone with edit access to the community website can add it, but he's the one who has actually done it before. | 21:20 |
| balloons | ian-weisser, love find-a-task btw, thanks much for making it real | 21:22 |
| ian-weisser | mhall119 took the LP branch code and changed it to inside-wordpress content. So the branch is not used (marked 'rejected') | 21:22 |
| ian-weisser | balloons: Thx. | 21:22 |
| ian-weisser | For anyone tracking, find-a-task is *entirely* within the page source code. It's just HTML, not a database. However, the wordpress host stores that page in _it's_ database...which means Find-a-Task is non-searchable. | 21:23 |
| ian-weisser | (and it wasn't intended to be searchable) | 21:25 |
| ian-weisser | There is no master list of volunteer roles. The intent of Find-a-Task is that teams can add and delete and change roles as they need. It's a living job board. | 21:27 |
| ian-weisser | It merely lacks a lof of the job-board bureaucracy. | 21:28 |
| ian-weisser | Happy to see teams dropping by to add to it. | 21:29 |
| * ian-weisser nods off to sleep again | 21:29 | |
| knome | well, just because i can... | 21:49 |
| knome | http://paste.ubuntu.com/9825362/ | 21:49 |
| knome | there's a greasemonkey script that takes the find-a-task url and converts it into a list of all the tasks in the database | 21:50 |
| balloons | pleia2, your input here would be helpful too: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Jams/Testing. I trust it makes the page easier | 22:10 |
| pleia2 | balloons: thanks, I'll have a look this evening (and maybe add some things if you don't mind?) | 22:13 |
| balloons | pleia2, yes go for it. I consider what's there a rough cut. I tried to cut out the extraneous content and simplify it. It still needs work, so dive in | 22:14 |
| knome | working on many of the QA team wiki pages, i've noticed many of them has this weird, marketing-style speech that goes on and on... and then the heading promises that the content begins... and you'll have more marketing speak and a link to an external page which is million lines long and badly formatted | 22:16 |
| knome | that makes me sad :( | 22:16 |
| knome | (also see my recent comments on the -quality channel) | 22:17 |
| ian-weisser | knome: That is a fabulous greasemonkey script. Thanks for sharing. | 22:26 |
| knome | well, you're welcome | 22:26 |
| knome | but you can also not use it if you want to keep the tension. | 22:26 |
| knome | ;) | 22:27 |
| ian-weisser | I like the tension. | 22:27 |
| knome | getting it out like that is useful for several occasions | 22:27 |
| knome | for example, seeing and updating your own tasks | 22:27 |
| knome | or seeing what else is there to avoid duplicating with your tasks | 22:27 |
| knome | etc... | 22:27 |
| ian-weisser | The former is the one I was thinking of. | 22:28 |
| knome | also in a Gist: https://gist.github.com/knomepasi/08d651fa7f666c445f89 | 22:46 |
| jose | jcastro: hey J, did Antonio get back to you on that email? | 23:05 |
