dholbachgood morning06:58
dholbachdpm, mhall119, popey: do you know if the people on https://trello.com/c/A5O5LQHB/6-add-track-leads are already confirmed?07:37
dholbachbecause from the looks of it Cloud and Show&Tell are good to go07:38
dpmdholbach, they're not, I just added them as an initial suggestion during the call on Friday07:38
dholbachok07:38
dpmdavidcalle confirmed he'd be on show & tell, though07:38
dholbach<307:39

dpmcool :)07:40
dholbachpopey, can I note you down as track lead for App Development? :)07:40
dholbachdpm, mhall119, I also added https://trello.com/c/Lo7zw5Xf/35-update-content-on-uds-u-c07:41
dholbachit's not a lot of work though07:41
dholbachI'll add a card for the wiki pages too07:42
dholbachor maybe we can drop the wiki pages and make them redirect?07:43
dholbachif we merge it into summit already....?07:43
davidcalledholbach, hey :)07:50
dholbachhey davidcalle07:50
davidcalledholbach, IS just told me they were about to add a new firewall rule to d.u.c -> myapps api07:50
dholbachawesome!07:51
dholbachdpm, mhall119: I updated all wiki pages - the one I was unsure about was: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UDS/Plenaries07:57
popeyMorning from London.08:10
dholbachdpm, can you please take a look at the mail about the t-shirt designs?08:14
dholbachhey popey08:16
dpmdholbach, sure08:16
dholbachthanks08:17
dholbachmhall119, would you be willing to be track lead on the convergence track?08:26
mhall119dholbach: sure12:38
dholbachthanks mhall11912:42
czajkowskimhall119: aloha12:56
czajkowskimhall119: things I've found out today, not all US states are off but Florida is12:57
jcastrodholbach: I'll start the UOS bits when I get back tomorrow13:04
jcastrobeen on the road13:05
mhall119czajkowski: not this Floridian13:05
dholbachjcastro, sure... do you already know if you're going to be a tracklead or do you need to think about it some more?13:05
dholbachdpm, hello hello? :)14:23
dpmdholbach, you noticed it, I just didn't want to talk to you anymore :)14:34
dpmI thought I was subtle enough14:34
dholbachright14:34
dholbachnothing new :)14:34
dholbachdavidcalle, mhall119: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/12763819/ looks like it's a step in the right direction :)15:10
davidcalledholbach, on my end, I've tested the menu generation, it basically creates a map of a md file, and uses h1 and h2 titles to generate a menu in a div on the left side15:10
dholbachthe importer still messes stuff up, but less now :)15:10
dholbachwoah15:10
davidcalledholbach, but... why would you select drafts?15:11
* dholbach programmes to machines to print more "David Callé for president!" stickers15:11
dholbachdavidcalle, the other one didn't have any effect - it looks like right now it does the right thing15:11
dholbachor... well, more of a right thing15:11
dholbacha righter thing15:12
davidcalledholbach, hmm15:12
davidcalle:)15:12
mhall119it does the righter thing less wrongly15:12
dholbachI still don't get http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/12763777/15:13
dholbachall of the articles are published15:13
mhall119dholbach: davidcalle: are you calling the Page.publish() method at any time? If not, you might want to try and see if that does the whole draft/published song and dance for you15:13
dholbachsome are publisher_is_draft=true though15:14
dholbachmhall119, it is15:14
davidcalleI imagine it differentiates between "draft" and "public draft" (what's just been created as a draft VS what's available to other people allowed to see drafts)15:16
dholbachmh, ok15:16
davidcalleOr maybe not15:16
mhall119davidcalle: I don't think so15:16
mhall119I think everybody sees the same "draft"15:16
davidcalleThen, "published" means "published once"15:17
davidcallemhall119, dholbach, dpm, if you have a moment and a phone on rc-proposed (not sure if that's needed, but just in case), please test the silo-020. It allows scopes refreshing by applying a diff and not reloading the whole content :-O16:04
dholbachall right... I call it a day - see you all tomorrow16:58
wxlhey folks. quick question: i hear msm has left canonical??? who's the main contact for community donations now?18:19
wxli'm actually trying, as my LoCo Team Leader, to help organize several members of our team to go to an event than I can't make it to18:19
pleia2I think dholbach said it was Stefanie, wxl I can /msg you contact info18:38
pleia2wxl: did you submit a request and not hear back, or...?18:38
pleia2wxl: ah, the bottom of the funding page says Claire: http://community.ubuntu.com/help-information/funding/18:40
pleia2so I'd start there :)18:40
wxlpleia2: thanks for pointing out the obvious. i need to have a good contact because this event is right around the corner!19:02
pleia2the contact was updated recently upon the departure of msm (there was a bug report) so that should be the correct one now19:03
pleia2can also poke mhall119 if you need, they're the folks that review the requests, even if claire and others handle logistics19:04
popeypleia2: correct, clan (Claire) is the right contact, although first port of call is applying through the website19:11
popeywxl: ^19:11
wxlright right. already done in my case. thanks popey19:11
popeysuper19:11
wxlif mhall119 is the one that does the review, i guess he's the person i need to harass. consider yourself harassed, sir. i need to check on the community donations requests for Ubuntu Oregon LoCo @ SeaGL19:12
popeyits not just mhall119, it's the entire team19:17
wxloh well, perhaps he can speak for them19:18
popeyWe review them on a wednesday afternoon19:18
* wxl shrugs19:18
wxloh oh ok19:18
popeys/them/us/ :)19:18
wxli'll wait until wed then :)19:18
popeykk19:19
wxli just sent an email to stephanie to clarify her role in the whole thing19:19
wxlyou'll have been cc'd of course19:19
wxlnice to have things down officially in writing :)19:20
popeyuh, why?19:36
popeyI just explained it's Clare, not Stephanie.19:37
popey*Claire19:37
wxlpopey: because i'm trying to figure out how Stephanie got involved at all in this whole thing. if you read the email, the question is more about why she's getting involved when Claire appears to be the contact. perhaps she is somehow peripherally involved? just seeking clarity. also, it will ensure that the LoCo request the LC is dealing with gets properly routed.19:40
popeyI don't have the email wxl19:41
wxlsent to CC popey. may be held up in moderation19:42
popeywxl: to clarify donation requests sent via the form go to a spreadsheet which the community team reviews on a wednesday afternoon. We +1 / -1 / 0 / ask for more info. Claire then goes through them after we have done that, to get in contact with the person doing the request.19:49
popeywxl: Claire will do the actual movement of money / paperwork / ordering of items. The Community team is the reviewer, she's the do-er :)19:50
wxlpopey: so as far as you know, stephanie doesn't even have a peripheral involvement in it?19:50
popeywxl: Well, Stephanie works for Canonical and may have some involvement. By primarily it's Community Team & Claire. as previously it was Community Team & msm.19:50
popeywxl: Stephanie may well get involved if there's some work she could do to help Claire / us out.19:51
wxlpopey: so that all makes sense to me. i'll redirect this LC inquiry at Claire then, or at least include her in it19:51
popeywxl: maybe I can answer your inquiry? :)19:52
wxlpopey: they're looking for a tracking number on the donation request, so perhaps Claire would be ideal19:52
popeywxl: Has the request been approved and sent yet?19:53
wxlpopey: not quite sure. let me check the logs19:53
popeywxl: Which team? Who made the request?19:53
wxlpopey: George Christofis, Ubuntu Greece for Fosscomm 201519:54
wxlsorry if i seem a bit distracted. doing php updates on the work webserver. ugh.19:55
popeywxl: I see no requests under that name, I see one under your name.19:55
wxlwell i did just submit mine this weekend19:55
wxlso that's kind of freaky19:55
popeycomputers are fast like that :)19:56
wxlpopey: George sent his request to us 7 October and said he had put the request through a couple days before that19:56
wxlFosscomm is 6-8 November, so there's a wee bit of time there19:57
wxlpopey: my event is this month!19:57
wxlpopey: fwiw George's email is geochr22 at gmail19:58
popeyhmmm19:59
popeylet me look19:59
wxlhm he didn't use the community donations form, popey20:00
wxlthat may be the problem20:00
wxlhe used:20:00
wxlhttps://forms.canonical.com/locopack/20:00
wxland https://forms.canonical.com/lococd/20:00
popeyah, that's different!20:00
popeyI don't know where those go. Sorry. You asked about the community donations.20:01
wxl*MINE* were sent through the normal community donations form. even though i did ask for a little swag box, i also need to get travel and accomodations covered.20:01
popeyThat's the one I know.20:01
popeySorry, dunno about the loco ones.20:01
wxlwell that's problematic20:01
popeyWhy?20:01
popeyMe not knowing something isn't a problem :)20:01
wxlheheh no :)20:01
popeyJust means it's someone elses problem :)20:01
wxlbut we may have to deprecate those forms if we don't know whose problem they are20:01
wxlmaybe that's why stephanie got involved20:01
popeyNo, lets not get ahead of ourselves20:02
popeyI just said I don't know where they go, not 'lets nuke them from orbit'20:02
wxli was more thinking out loud than making suggestions, sorry :)20:02
popeyI recommend we have this conversation tomorrow, when dpm/m hall119 etc are around then.20:03
* wxl nods20:03
czajkowskinuking is so not PC :)20:17
wxlyes, deprecating has a nice ring to it XD20:18
mhall119wxl: I'd much rather revive the LoCo DVD program, rather than nuke it20:44
wxlmhall119: yeah like i said, just talking out loud. i think having the separate forms makes a lot of sense. assuming people other than the people involved in the community donations are responsible for those (maybe the loco council?), that would reduce the strain on the community team20:49
wxlmhall119: is anyone responsible for them at present?20:50
mhall119the LoCo council is responsible for verifying teams, any verified team should be approved to get DVDs20:50
mhall119I suspect that msm just didn't remember this program when she was assigning her tasks to clan and stephanie20:51
* mhall119 is assuming msm handled the requested in the past anyway20:51
wxlmhall119: both are mentioned here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuAtConferences20:52
wxlmhall119: it also mentions a pack for non-verified locos20:53
wxlmhall119: it agrees with your notion that you must be verified to get cds20:54
mhall119wxl: especially with the barrier to verified being somewhat lower than it was for approved20:55
wxlmhall119: i feel that if we are going to "refresh" those programs, then we need to make sure that that page and the cda page (http://community.ubuntu.com/help-information/funding/) refer to one another20:55
mhall119wxl: agreed, both should be on community.u.c too20:55
wxlyep20:55
mhall119kill the wiki pages20:55
* popey gets the nukes20:56
wxlmhall119: perhaps merging them together would be best and then we can make a redirect from the originals20:56
wxlpopey: you mean "deprecates" XD20:56
wxlmhall119: so can you coordinate with claire (clan?) and stephanie to ensure that they know about these forms and how to access the submissions and what not?20:57
wxl…and/or ensure SOMEONE knows?20:57
wxlmhall119: i guess for the time being, reviewing them should fall under the responsibility of the CC but i would fully support the LC doing it if that's of any value to you guys. considering the money involved, perhaps not.20:58
mhall119wxl: yup, already emailing them both about the request20:58
wxlthank you sir!20:58
mhall119happy to help :)20:58
mhall119wxl: I think it definitely belongs under the LC's responsibility20:59
wxlmhall119: as i told popey, i'll come back wednesday night or thursday to check in about what's going on the with the requests that i sent in. perhaps they're purgatorially in the æther :)20:59
wxlmhall119: then could you also send the LC a note about the process we would go through to review these, e.g. how would we get the requests, where would we submit them to, etc?21:00
mhall119wxl: I don't think the LC needs to review individual requests, just verify the teams on a regular basis like you already do21:02
mhall119I can't think of a reason why a verified team *shouldn't* get DVDs if they request them, can you?21:03
wxlmhall119: certainly not21:03
mhall119well, one reason I cna think of is if that team's country is likely to hold them in customs, we've had that problem with a few21:05
mhall119but that's not something for the LC to approve/reject either, just a live and learn thing21:05
* mhall119 hopes msm made a list of those countries21:05
wxlmhall119: we should keep a running list of them on that community.u.c page21:05
mhall119good idea21:06
wxlmhall119: better yet— remove the countries from the country list or create an OnClick that pops up a notification that we cannot ship to that country due to customs21:16
wxlmhall119: i also think (talking about the standard community donations), that giving people an expectation as to when to expect a response would be good, too21:17
