[02:41] <micahg> Laney: yes, I actually have two proposals to make (one I think we meant to announce, but never actually went through with it)
[02:41] <micahg> I think I've been the only one processing backports as of late and the last two weeks I just haven't had the time, I should be able to process some this week
[03:52] <Logan> micahg: I'd definitely be interested in helping
[03:53] <Logan> nhandler would like to help backport packages as well
[03:54] <nhandler> Hmm...Sure, why not :)
[04:40] <micahg> hi nhandler :)
[04:41] <nhandler> o/ It sure has been a while
[04:45] <micahg> hi Logan, great, I should probably prepare an email or something, but backports has similar ACLs to -proposed, so MOTUs can upload universe packages (following the appropriate backports procedures) and a backporter can accept from the queue, Open backport issues are listed here: https://launchpad.net/ubp (there are subprojects for each release, you can safely ignore any issues/tasks in a release that's EOL), you'll want to make sure that the bac
[04:45] <micahg> kport criteria is met per the information in the description, more info about building/testing/requesting here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBackports
[04:46] <Logan> awesome, I'll take a look
[04:46] <Logan> on a similar note, I feel like there should be a better way to see open bugs for packages in series that are not the development one
[04:47] <Logan> like, a certain package might say there aren't any bugs
[04:47] <Logan> but there might be ones that were Fix Released but still have open tasks in the other releases
[04:48] <micahg> right, I wonder if there's a launchpad bug, my launchpad foo isn't what it used to be
[04:51] <Logan> I feel like Launchpad has been neglected for a while now, but that's probably not giving enough respect to Canonical engineers
[04:51] <Logan> I guess most effort has been backend, like buildds, recently
[04:54] <micahg> there are less people working on it now than before, it's still open source and developers can feel free to contribute: https://dev.launchpad.net/
[04:56] <Logan> hmm, maybe I should try tackling some bugs
[04:57] <Logan> I should make a Docker image for it
[06:21] <dholbach> good morning
[08:19] <Laney> micahg: if one of them is letting people upload stuff to the queue themselves (using regular sponsoring?) then ++
[08:19] <Laney> still worried about actually processing the queue though
[08:19] <Laney> queue*s*
