pittihello all16:00
infinityo/16:01
* pitti pung Stephane and Kees16:01
infinityI just dropped bacon on the floor.16:01
infinityThis is the worst day of my life.16:01
slangasekinfinity: that pig's been in mud before, wash it off and get on with it16:02
pittilol16:02
* pitti catches up with the mail replies in the meantime16:02
infinityOh, right, we have a mailing list.16:03
infinitypitti: Hrm.  I had some points to make about your SRU proposal(s) a week or so ago but, of course, didn't mail them in, and am now to scatterbrained to recall. :P16:04
slangasekpitti: just sent another reply, two minutes after the meeting start time16:04
pittistgraber: salut16:04
stgraberhey pitti16:04
pittislangasek: ah, good call; should be kind of obvious, but explicit is better16:05
pittiok, let's start16:05

pitti#topic action review16:05
* pitti taps foot for meetbot16:06
pittiACTION: slangasek to forward complaint to Canonical legal16:06
pittias this has been quiet for so long, is this still actually relevant?16:06
slangasekwell16:07
slangasekfeel free to drop it from the carry-over actions so we don't have to keep spending time discussing the non-action?16:07
pittiok; let's just silently bury that then :)16:08
slangasekI think it should still be done but obviously it's not the top of my priority list for the reason you say16:08
pittiACTION: slangasek to document maas, juju, docker exceptions on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates#Special_Cases16:08
slangasekcarry over :/16:08
pittithis might actually get better resolved (or resolved by itself) after the changing of the policy?16:08
slangasekI don't think so16:08
infinityI would hope not.16:08
infinityIf the policy becomes so open that what the maas team does is "okay" without an exception, I think we've gone too far in the free for all direction.16:09
mdeslaurthose aren't "micro" :P16:09
slangasekthey're exceptions to the policy on updating existing features, and I don't think are covered by the proposed changes to policy?16:09
pittiTBH, I don't know how "special" these are; I was hoping that with the generalization, allowing new features and generally allowing new microreleases this would be covered16:09
pittiah, ok16:09
pittiACTION: Everyone to review pitti's SRU policy ammendments and +1/-1 on-list16:09
pittiwe got feedback from mdeslaur for the first one, and from slangasek and stgraber for the second patch16:10
infinitypitti: Can we carry that for another cycle, if you're not in a rush to commit?  I want to re-read, and read some IRC backscroll I had with ScottK and rebut a bit.16:10
pittinot sure if we interpret that as silent consent from the others now?16:10
pittiinfinity: sure16:10
mdeslauroh, meant to +1 the second16:10
infinityObviously, if I fail to respond sanely in the next 2 weeks, assume silent approval from me due to being a derp. :P16:10
pittiFWIW, I think ScottK's amendment is fine as it has been the  existing policy so far anyway16:11
infinityYeah, that wasn't the only discussion I had with Scott.  We had a long, CoC-breaking drinking session one night. :P16:11
mdeslaurlol16:11
pittinot sure about stgraber's addition -- the policy already states that any change must be present in the devel series first, so it woudl be redundant16:11
pitti(I don't mind adding it, though)16:11
infinityI need to distill that into something publicly-acceptable.16:11
mdeslaurpitti: well, it's not just devel if it's a new feature16:12
pittiand slangasek's addition *should* be obvious, but I also don't mind adding that as a clarification16:12
pittimdeslaur: how do you mean?16:12
pittiwe wouldn't introduce a new featuer *only* into an LTS without it also landing in devel?16:12
pittiat least that's specifically not my intention16:12
infinitypitti: If it's a new feature in 14.04, it might be missing entirely in 15.04 as well, and upgrades need to be vaguely supportable.16:12
mdeslaurpitti: if it's a new feature, rather than just a bug fix, we need to have it in interim releases also16:13
infinitypitti: So, it's not just about devel and stable, but devel and all supported stables in between your target and devel.16:13
pittiah, I see16:13
pittiso this is not devel, it's for newer stables16:13
pittistgraber proposed "preferably", this should maybe become stronger then?16:13
infinityProbably should, yes.16:13
pittii. e. "should preferably" → "must"?16:13
infinityDo we properly use RFC language anywhere in that document?16:13
infinityMaybe we should start.16:13
mdeslaurah, yeah, stronger would be better16:14
infinity(Maybe we must start?)16:14
pittiyeah, we are using "should" a lot in the current policy which ought to be a "must"16:14
stgraberinfinity: I think you meant "Maybe we MUST start?" :)16:15
pittiok, so I'll send a v2 of both amendments with the proposals and the above "strongification"16:15
infinityA must/should/may cleanup of whatever docs we're responsible for wouldn't go amiss.16:15
mdeslaur#define should must16:15
pittiand I keep prodding infinity over the next two weeks :)16:15
infinity#define 2 1.99999916:15
slangasek#define must volatile16:15
pittiok, I think we're done with this topic :)16:16
mdeslaurhehe16:16
pittino other agenda items16:16
stgraber:)16:16
pittinothing new on the ML16:16
pittiah, for meetbot (if it works at all):16:16
infinityIt works, it just doesn't have topic permissions on this channel.16:16
pitti#action pitti to update SRU policy amendment proposals and gather feedback16:16
meetingologyACTION: pitti to update SRU policy amendment proposals and gather feedback16:16
infinityAnd no one's ever bothered to fix that.16:17
pittiACTION: infinity to respond to that16:17
pittizarro community bugs16:17
infinityACTION: pitti to stop using ambiguous pronoun backreferences in actions16:17
pittinext chair is slangasek, then (or fallback) stgraber, ok?16:17
* slangasek nods16:17
stgraberfine with me16:17
infinityGlad we all agree about pitti's grammar.16:18
infinity(And the chair)16:18
pittiACTION: infinity to replace his grammar lambastion with something much more peaceful, like a nice round of Halo or whatnot16:18
infinitypitti: :)16:18
pittic'est ça, mes amis16:19
pitti#topic AOB?16:19
slangasek"ça" - there you go with those dangling relative pronouns again16:19
infinityOh, there's one thing I wanted to get an informal "yeah, that's sane" from people before I move on it.16:19
infinityAt Plumbers, Kate stated that she was going to officially step down from ~ubuntu-release (I need to prod her about that) and, once she does, -release, -archive, and -sru will all be core-devs.16:20
pittislangasek: J'écris "Je suis mauvais" 100 fois..16:20
slangasekinfinity: yeah that's sane16:20
infinityI'd like to move to boith take over ownership of those teams by the TB where that's not currently true, and document a policy that teams that confer queue permissions shouldn't give people queue permissions more elevated than their upload rights.16:20
slangasekoh sorry were you still talking16:20
* pitti assumes that there's still some question coming?16:20
infinity(So, core-dev only for those teams)16:20
pittibig +116:21
mdeslaurinfinity: you said "should"16:21
mdeslauryeah, +1 from me16:21
slangasek+116:21
infinityThe reason for the strict permission match wording, rather than explicity "must be core-devs" is that it also opens the possibility of a motu-release with universe queue permissions or whatever.16:21
slangasekmdeslaur: lol16:21
stgraber+116:22
infinitymdeslaur: Right, so I did.  s/should/must/ where I meant it. :P16:22
infinityOkay, so thanks for the informal vote.  After I poke Kate and get her to deactivate (trying to avoid drama there by doing it myself), I'll move on the policy and owenership bits.16:23
pittinice, thanks infinity16:23
