[14:17] <balloons> ping wxl elfy
[14:19] <balloons> jibel, good morning! any news on the images front? The last image to have passed smoke testing for ubuntu is from the 26th of march
[14:20] <jibel> Hey balloons
[14:21] <jibel> balloons, there is a problem in CI, and there is an installation loop. I'll ask to force the publication to current
[14:21] <jibel> balloons, the image is OK-ish, I could do a manual unstallation
[14:21] <jibel> installation*
[14:24] <elfy> balloons: pong, just got a working PC back together here ... desperate for something liquid and I'll be right with you :)
[14:26] <balloons> jibel, I grabbed the image yesterday, but wasn't sure if I should use the new one or not. I'll grab from pending
[14:27] <balloons> elfy, ack..
[14:27] <jibel> balloons, grab latest pending, it fixes the shutdown problem
[14:38] <elfy> balloons: s'up then :)
[14:44] <balloons> elfy, hw troubles, same as you. Swapping primary harddrives, wiping and restoring from backup :-)
[14:44] <balloons> elfy, but I wanted to ask you about UOS
[14:44] <elfy> lucky you - I was hoping that the psu didn't take out the mobo
[14:44] <elfy> fingers crossed
[14:45] <balloons> elfy, ohh, bad psu eh? I think I have some bad cables again
[14:45] <elfy> heh - well even UOS sounds better than a new mobo :D
[14:45] <balloons> in addition to the dead drive.. heh. The new one acted the same until I swapped the cable
[14:45] <balloons> elfy, :p
[14:45] <elfy> oh - that would be a :( moment for sure
[14:46] <balloons> elfy, so anyways from a quality and xubuntu perspective both.. Who best to talk to about xubuntu having a session at UOS? And from a quality perspective, what session would you like to see?
[14:46] <elfy> right
[14:46] <balloons> We have a 'show and tell' track for demoing things, I'm wondering if we have ideas for a cool demo
[14:46] <knome> there is no person with the nick "right" in the xubuntu team
[14:46] <elfy> so from a Xubuntu perspective the project lead is ochosi
[14:46] <balloons> demoing in theory is the easiest session to run ever :-)
[14:48] <elfy> from a QA perspective from me - I've gotten a bit 'doesn't matter what you say, when you say it, how you say it' doesn't actually make much difference in the reality of what I see as XubuntuQA Lead
[14:49] <knome> what's the main subject?
[14:50] <balloons> hey knome :-)
[14:50] <knome> hello balloons
[14:51] <balloons> just talking UOS with anyone who might be interested :-) I'm curious about what the flavors might be up to for this UOS, in addition to seeing what people might want to see in the way of sessions
[14:51] <knome> the most realistic one for xubuntu might be a Q&A session
[14:52] <balloons> I feel like having each flavor do a q and a, or a simple community session would be awesome. I know many flavors plan things outside of UOS, which is wonderful -- whatever works for them. I do see value in sharing a small snippet of what's going on with the rest of us though
[14:53] <knome> when is UOS?
[14:53] <elfy> knome does not speak for me there - if he thinks it's a useful thing to do - he can run it
[14:53] <balloons> at the very least I'm hoping there will be interest in demoing things.. I know new stuff is landing / changing in all the flavors and it would be neat to see some of it
[14:53] <knome> elfy, i said realistic...
[14:53] <knome> elfy, i didn't say useful
[14:53] <balloons> elfy, :-). Only you can speak for you
[14:53] <elfy> and I do, often :p
[14:53] <balloons> what of the demoing idea?
[14:54] <balloons> knome, UOS is May 5th
[14:54] <knome> right...
[14:54] <knome> i'm pretty sure we don't have any new things to demo at that point (yet)
[14:54] <elfy> balloons: you about tonight at ~ 2100UTC ?
[14:54] <knome> also, i'm so not going to be attending...
[14:55] <knome> we fly to berlin that day
[14:55] <elfy> balloons: there is a Xubuntu meeting tonight, pop by and broach the subject perhaps
[14:55] <knome> and i will be having intentionally bad online presence for a week..
[14:56] <elfy> might be nice to have a Canonical type person wander in and say hi
[14:56] <elfy> just a thought
[14:56] <knome> yeah
[14:57] <knome> generally lurkers are welcome.
[14:57] <balloons> knome, new things can be old things to you, heh.. still likely new to me. I don't know about any of the changes in vivid for xubuntu really
[14:57] <elfy> for sure they are - I wish they said something sometimes though :)
[14:57] <balloons> but other things can be demoed ofc..
[14:57] <knome> well i don't think vivid has many fresh things either...
[14:57] <knome> but point taken
[14:58] <balloons> elfy, great I will do that, ty. in ubuntu-meeting or ?
[14:58] <knome> balloons, #xubuntu-devel
[14:58] <balloons> ahh, figured as much
[14:58]  * elfy needs to make some pre-meeting notes of nasty bugs still kicking about 
[14:59]  * knome adds an agenda item
[14:59] <elfy> knome: good idea :)_
[14:59] <knome> done
[15:01] <balloons> i'm idling, please feel free to ping my nick to pull me away from whatever I'm doing at 2100 :-)
[15:04] <knome> heh
[15:05] <elfy> cue a bunch of pings ...
[15:05] <balloons> :-)
[15:48] <fabiomassimo> ciao
[16:21] <davmor2> balloons: ping ping ping ping ping ping ping ping ping ping ping ping ping ping ping ping ping ......I mean it must be 2100 somewhere in the world :D
[16:32] <wxl> balloons: you rang?
[16:34] <balloons> davmor2, rofl
[16:35] <balloons> wxl, howdy.. I was wanting to talk to you about UOS. From a lubuntu perspective . .
[16:36] <wxl> 1s balloons
[16:36] <elfy> hi wxl
[16:46] <wxl> ok go for it balloons
[16:47] <elopio> vila: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment/NewPackages#Going_through_MOTU
[16:48] <balloons> wxl, ok so I was wondering what lubuntu might be up to for UOS. I'd like to see if there is interest in having a session on the community track. If not a planning session for next cycle, perhaps a Q and A where you discuss what's been happening / will happen inside lubuntu.
[16:49] <balloons> wxl, alternatively there is a 'show and tell' track, which is for demos. I think showing off the qt version of lxde would be well recieved
[16:49] <wxl> balloons: yeah as lxqt approaches, it would be valuable. maybe a show off session
[16:49] <wxl> :)
[16:49] <wxl> a planning session would be good too if i can organize all the cats together
[16:50] <balloons> something you might be interested in doing? UOS is May 5th - May 7th
[16:50] <wxl> lemme check the calendar but off hand yes
[16:50] <balloons> I planned to send a mail along to lubuntu-devel, but I can send it elsewhere or make a pitch at a meeting, etc :-)
[16:51] <wxl> lubuntu-admins would be best i think
[16:51] <balloons> wxl, ack. I'll send it along now
[16:52] <balloons> thanks, and I hope those dates / times work for you :-)
[16:52] <wxl> balloons: it's a launchpad list so send it and i'll approve
[16:52] <wxl> …unless you want to join the team ;)
[16:53] <wxl> balloons: hah i already have it in the calendar so good to go on my end
[16:53] <wxl> only thing that stinks is it's
[16:53] <wxl> during work for me
[16:53] <wxl> maybe this time i'll go to the coffee shop and use their wifi
[16:58] <balloons> wait, elfy, is the xubuntu meeting tonight or tomorrow? wiki says april 15th at 2100
[17:09] <elfy> balloons: that all went a bit wobbly - it is definitely tonight :)
[17:10] <elfy> oh
[17:10] <elfy> hang on
[17:10] <elfy> no idea now lol
[17:11] <elfy> I think I'm wrong
[17:14] <elfy> balloons: ^^
[17:15] <balloons> I assume as much :p
[17:15] <elfy> and knome didn't notice either :)
[17:15] <elfy> balloons: at one point it was on Wednesday and Thursday lol
[17:19] <knome> hah
[17:19] <knome> it's tomorrow :P
[17:20] <knome> no, i didn't notice because today has been a lousy day..
[17:21] <elfy> tell me about it
[17:21] <elfy> I was expecting to try and remember passwords on a clean install :p
[17:22] <knome> hah
[22:20] <elopio> ping veebers: so this is the right way to launch things? https://code.launchpad.net/~canonical-platform-qa/address-book-app/fix_base_class/+merge/256243
[23:27] <veebers> elopio: yeah, that's the one
[23:27] <elopio> I got it all wrong.
[23:28] <elopio> veebers: thanks for the investigation in here. I'll be correcting all the ones I messed up.
[23:29] <veebers> elopio: yeah it's not the most obvious thing, and as stated in the investigation results, it needs to be clearer, the docs need improved and autopilot needs to be smarter about it
[23:30] <elopio> veebers: I agree. But now that you mentioned it, it makes more sense to make the base class the same as the base of the inheritance hierarchy.
[23:31] <elopio> I just thought for some reason that launch_app was going to try to match the class I passed. I didn't notice that it goes to the registry, as with any select single.
