knomebluesabre, btw, if i didn't pass the info to you yet and you didn't catch it, we have an ACK for the community wallpaper upload without any extra paperwork as long as it lands before the final freeze00:12
knomewith that, i'm off for today00:14
knomesee you tomorrow00:14
krytarikbluesabre: Can we keep -hinted too, please? :'(00:19
jjfrv8bluesabre, this weekend doesn't look good for me, but I don't think I really need to be there.00:26
bluesabrekrytarik: testing currently, hard to test without pushing directly to meta00:35
bluesabrekrytarik: is -cjk not hinted?00:35
bluesabrejjfrv8: alrighty, np00:35
krytarikbluesabre: The two cover different scripts, anyway. :D00:53
bluesabreah, was under the impression that -cjk was just more unicode complete00:59
krytarikI think it'd make sense at that point to add the whole 'fonts-noto' package, though.01:07
Unit193...Can we keep the huge ones out? :P01:14
bluesabreseemingly not01:18
bluesabrealrighty01:26
bluesabreso add * (fonts-noto-hinted) back to the seed and leave -default-settings as-is01:26
bluesabreshould make everybody happy01:26
bluesabrekrytarik, Unit193: sound agreeable?01:28
krytarikYeah.01:28
krytarikLeaves out Mono, but oh well. :P01:29
Unit193Presuming that leaves -hinted with x-d-s, yeah.  Though I do like me some -noto-mono. :P01:29
bluesabreyeah, we don't use that though (for now)01:29
bluesabreyes01:29
Unit193Yeah, Dejavu Mono.01:30
Unit193Uhh.. Wow, that's so much worse than I remembered. >_<01:30
Unit193After this operation, 115 MB of additional disk space will be used.01:30
bluesabreyup01:32
bluesabrebut hey, build-essential is gone now :D01:32
Unit193That's big enough to replace firefox.01:32
bluesabre"Committed revision 999."01:32
bluesabreoh boy01:32
bluesabreand running germinate01:33
bluesabrebbiab01:33
Unit193Speaking of which, anyone else use thunar-dropbox-plugin?01:36
bluesabreknome, slickymaster: are -docs translations ready to upload?09:11
knomebluesabre, both finnish and portuguese user-docs translations are at 100%09:14
knomespanish is missing 16 strings09:14
knomegerman 7309:14
knomefrench 27409:15
Unit193es.po   98.1714%, ru.po   91.8857%, de.po   91.6571%09:15
knomeoh right russian missing 7109:15
knomei guess the situation is what it is09:16
knomebluesabre, so; ack from me for the upload09:16
tracker9knome, how do i help in translation?09:17
knometracker9, https://translations.launchpad.net/xubuntu-docs09:17
Unit193Seems we need a bigger disclaimer that we can't approve strings.09:18
knometracker9, but you need to be a member of a translation team, and that's another question...09:18
knomeindeed09:18
knomei'll send a reminder mail to dpm09:18
knomesigh09:18
tracker9knome, but can i make a suggestions in translation without being a member?09:18
Unit193Amusingly, de and ru are in the lead with contributor docs.09:18
tracker9Btw, which version of xserver is present in 16.04?09:20
knome!info xorg xenial09:22
ubottuxorg (source: xorg): X.Org X Window System. In component main, is optional. Version 1:7.7+13ubuntu3 (xenial), package size 2 kB, installed size 54 kB09:22

knomeUnit193, the same, the same :P09:24
Unit193knome: Yeah, trying to hit another.  It is 1.18.309:24
Unit193'xorg-server' is the source package..09:24
tracker9So it is bundled with the latest one?09:25

bluesabrehard to accommodate all of us :D11:01
bluesabreknome: wasn't expecting to see changes in the docs other than translations - do we need a freeze exception?11:06
knomebluesabre, what changes are there?11:22

bluesabretime to head to work, more uploads tonight11:33
bluesabreflocculant: got some fixes in the pipeline for menulibre, probably be seeing those soon11:34
knomebluesabre, hmm, indeed..11:35
knomei guess it would only need a string freeze exception, if any11:36
bluesabreyup, care to get that for me today, translation freeze is today11:37
knomeno exceptions required (see #ubuntu-release)11:38
bluesabreknome: great11:39
bluesabreUnit193: if you're bored and want an upload, you can tackle -docs today, or I'll get to it this evening11:39
knome\o/11:39
bluesabre->11:39
knomehooray for Unit193 doing the upload!11:40
knome(:11:40
flocculantbluesabre: nice and nice and nice :p11:46
ochosievening all18:46
ochosihow're things?18:46
flocculanthey ochosi - good break I hope :)18:48
ochosiphew, quite a few submissions to vote on18:52
flocculantseems so18:53
ochosiand quite a few +5/-518:56
ochosiknome: hm, i think i voted on all of them, but it seems i only have 91/9219:00
knomeochosi, now you found the last one19:00
knomeUnit193, around?19:02
knomedkessel, very likely you aren't around, but ping?19:03
knomeochosi, want to figure out what to do with the selection now?19:07
ochosiknome: can do20:11
ochosiknome: seems we have 10 submissions with 0 or more points20:12
knomeok20:13
knomeso my suggestion is:20:13
knomemake any that has >0 autowin.20:13
knomeafter that, from those which received a total of 0, select those that bring the winners to the most variable selection20:14
knomein color, contrasts, subject etc20:14
knomeand maybe even - submitters20:14
knomewho decides that is a different question20:15
knomeof course another option is to set up a community poll to select N from the zeroes, but that would mean we should get it started NOW20:15
flocculantis there really time though? 20:17
Unit193knome: Now, yes.20:18
knomeflocculant, i don't think so, which i've kind of feared the whole time20:20
flocculantmmm20:20
ochosiyeah, it's a bit late for a poll imo20:20
flocculantwe were too late doing something again 20:20
flocculantwe were too late doing something again I guess20:21
ochosi"make any that has >0 autowin." +120:21
knomeflocculant, stuff is ready for the next time now though :)20:21
knomeUnit193, have you voted on http://contest.xubuntu.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/The_Sky_Is_The_Limit-1024x686.jpeg ?20:21
flocculantthat said if "10 submissions with 0 or more points"20:21
flocculantwhat's the issue with using 10?20:21
knomeUnit193, it is missing one vote, either from you or dkessel20:21
ochosiflocculant: yeah, i was thinking the same20:21
ochosii would just go with that actually20:21
knomewell, we said 620:21
Unit193I thought so.20:22
knomeUnit193, can you double check? :)20:22
ochosioh ok then20:22
knomewell, obviously it won't create much fuss if we select 1020:22
flocculantwell 20:22
flocculantwe could change it :)20:22
ochosiyeah, likely20:22
flocculantknome: yea20:22
Unit193Yes.20:22
knomebut then it's 10% of the submissions20:22
knome(^ not an argument either way, just pointing out)20:23
flocculantand tbh - if we had 20 with >0 then I could see a need to trim it20:23
knomei'll let the XPL decide20:23
knomeafter all, if all >=0 are selected, both of my submissions are through :P20:23
ochosimine too! :D20:24
knomeotoh, if only 6 are selected, only one of them could likely survive20:24
knome....which is why i think it would be fair to trim too.20:24
flocculantwell20:24
flocculantthe grab addresses from lp thingymajig still works :p20:24
knomeif it was trimmed to 6 and "only one winner per submitter", then it would be a task of voting 1 from 2 and 1 from 320:24
knomeso not a huge issue anyway20:25
ochosithe biggest problem is coming up with a reasonable way of trimming20:25
ochosiright, that would be an ok solution too20:25
knomeif we pick all then, then there are two winners with 2 submissions and one with 320:25
ochosibut anyway, i think 10 images are fine too20:25
knomewhich might not feel fair for other contestants20:25
knomeespecially since 2 of those happen to be team members.20:25
ochositrue, wouldn't be without precedent though (i think that was the case last time too)20:26
knomeochosi, variety in selection20:26
knome^ for "a reasonable way of trimming"20:26
knomeor die roll.20:26
knome:P20:26
flocculantknome: perhaps so - but it's all of team voting - and I didn't take any notice of *where* something came from20:26
knomeflocculant, of course - you couldn't :)20:27
knomeand tbh, i didn't care about the origin either - one shouldn't20:27
flocculantthen the argument to not falls down20:27
ochosiyeah, which is why i think it's even ok as it is20:27
knomeflocculant, not really, it might still feel unfair that first we say 6 submissions can win, then we expand to 10 and suddenly one contestant gets 3 submissions in20:27
ochosipersonally i wouldn't overthink this and say: these 10 came out on top, let's take them20:27
knomewell, let me give one more argument for stripping20:28
ochosialright then20:28
knomeif we strip to 6 without limiting the winning submissions a person can have, it's possible that the one with 3 winners (if all 10 are picked) doesn't get any in20:28
ochosinot sure i get the argument part there20:29
knomewell20:29
ochosithat just seems to be a fact20:29
knomeit's still about the subjective fairness 20:29
flocculantand what happens if only the *top* of any one submitters submissions get's through20:30
knomeflocculant, then we have 6 winners from the bunch of 1020:30
knomeflocculant, well except that the "top 3" for the one that has 3 entries are all level20:30
knomeso there's necessarily not a difference20:30
ochosii think i'm the only submitter to whom that applies20:30
knomeyep20:30
ochosiknome has two zeros and mike has three20:31
knome(and no, i'm not trying to drop ochosi's other submission out)20:31
flocculantpersonally I think we're in danger of getting our knickers in a twist over nothing here :)20:31
ochosiknome: yeah, please don't coz it20:31
ochosi's perrty!20:31
ochosi:)20:31
knomelet's put it this way:20:31
knomei'd rather get one of my submissions dropped than winning with two20:31
knomejust because we decided to pick 66% more20:31
flocculantlet's put it this way:20:31
ochosiyou can always change your vote on one of them ;)20:31
knomeochosi, let me change my votes so that i actually pick which one of the ten win...20:32
flocculantwe used to have gmb - now we don't - we changed our minds - not sure why it's an issue if we say 10 instead 20:32
flocculantwe just changed our minds :)20:32
knomeflocculant, we didn't say "gmb will be the default player for 16.04"20:32
flocculantdidn't say we did20:33
knomeflocculant, we did say that "we will pick 6 winners" though20:33
ochosiwe can also just take 4 and have changed our minds20:33
knomei think it's fair to pick 6 (and exactly 6)20:33
flocculantknome: there could have been 100 nsfw things - we would have 020:33
ochosibut yeah, i sort of agree with flocculant on the whole knickers topic20:33
flocculantha ha 20:33
knomeochosi, TMI20:33
flocculantnot sure I'll bring that up again :p20:33
ochosiknome: https://xkcd.com/1369/20:34
flocculantknome: team could have all just voted for 320:34
knometrue20:34
flocculantwith everything else -20:34
knomeflocculant, of course.20:34
flocculanthow would we get 6 :)20:34
knomewe wouldn't.20:35
knomethat's not how this vote worked ;)20:35
knomethis vote worked like "upvote everything you want in"20:35
knome:P20:35
flocculantyup20:35
knomeand those with positive points have got more upvotes than not20:35
ochosiyeah, it wasn't designed to get exactly 620:35
flocculantand if all of had just upvoted 3 images20:35
knomeso they are definitely winners, we can't drop any of those20:35
* ochosi goes to change all of his votes *now*20:36
knomeflocculant, then we would have went to the minuses :P20:36
knomei still think we should pick exactly 620:36
flocculantI still think - danger of exploding knickers20:36
knomeall positives, one 0 from me and one 0 from mike20:36
knomethis isn't even overthinking20:36
knomeit's just "one winner per contestant"20:37
ochosiwhere contestant is submitter, not author20:37
knomeyes20:37
knomeindeed20:37
ochosiwhich is where i feel that logic fails a little20:37
knomewell20:37
flocculantwho's mike anyway? 20:37
knomeflocculant, somebody from the community :)20:38
ochosiflocculant: mike's a winner baby ;)20:38
flocculantoic20:38
flocculantI thought I read they'd voted :p20:38
flocculantthat got past me ... 20:38
ochosii don't think anybody knows him here20:38
knomeochosi, in all truth, the next contest we run i will try to get a "only own work" policy in the terms...20:38
knomethat let's us skip this "it feels our logic fails" part20:39
ochosiknome: sure, we sort of had that previously (implicitely at least)20:39
knomebecause obviously mike could have told 10 of his friends to submit different work of his20:39
ochosiyeah, so one per author then?20:39
knomei'm fine with that too if it's 6 total.20:40
ochosiwell you know it isn't20:40
flocculantand what if it's not? 20:40
knome;'(20:40
ochosiand as i said before, i don't think that it's that which counts20:40
ochosiwhy 6 btw?20:40
knomebecause we said we will pick 6...20:40
flocculantarbitrary iirc20:40
knomewe picked 6 the last time.20:41
flocculantcould have been 5 or 720:41
knomeso it made sense to keep with that20:41
flocculantuntil now ... 20:41
flocculant:p20:41
knomequoting for truth: "After the submission deadline, the Xubuntu team picks 6 winners from all submissions which will get included on the Xubuntu ISO and available for all Xubuntu users."20:41
knome:P20:41
knomefrom http://xubuntu.org/news/xubuntu-16-04-wallpaper-competition/20:41
knomewe could have said "at least 6" if we wanted to make sure we can do whatever we want20:42
knomei think 6 is also about the right amount20:42
flocculantwe're not voting on something liefe or death here20:42
knomei don't remember the thinking process from the last time, but clearly we thought 6 was a good number back then too :)20:43
knomeflocculant, indeed not - so let's keep it as 6 as we said ;)20:43
flocculantwe can just say "Given the choices we had and the voting the team made, we ended up with 10 we couldn't easily decide between - so we've gone for 10'20:43
knomewe didn't even try to decide20:43
flocculantperhaps before it was a space on iso thing20:43
knomespace issues are still space issues20:44
knomegranted, 4 wallpapers isn't a huge hit, but it's the small hit on top of everything else we have20:44
flocculantand if we're not caring about 120Mb font packages that are only really useful for some people ... 20:44
knomewell, that's a different discussion for other people to decide on20:45
knomeok, partly the same people, but here, not me20:45
flocculantanyway - whatever ochosi says is good to go works for me - because all 6 (or 10) will be a pointless bandwidth thing for me anyway :)20:46
knomethe more i think why i think it should be 6 and not 10, the more i feel like it's because it's fair there's can be only one winning submission per submitter20:46
ochosisry, was afk on baby duty20:46
flocculant\o/20:47
knome:)20:47
flocculantgood man :p20:47
knomei did my duties earlier in the day...20:47
flocculantI did mine years ago 20:47
ochosiknome: the way i remember last time we had lots and lots of mediocre/bad submissions and we picked the 6 we felt we could actually ship...20:48
ochosiand we had really long discussions about the results20:48
knomeochosi, maybe20:48
flocculantmaybe?20:49
knomei said earlier i don't remember20:49
flocculantsounds like something I could say happened without being there :D 20:49
ochosii don't think that one submission per submitter is "fair" in any sense of "fairer" than taking more of one20:49
ochosiplus for me it's about *authors* if you wanna make it about fairnes20:50
HosckoHello ! I'm not a dev but can i See the ten wallpapers you like ?20:50
ochosis20:50
ochosiif someone submits >1 good pics that are not by him why care? those are still good picks20:50
flocculantochosi: and enough -team agreed it was 20:50
ochosiyeah20:51
flocculantHoscko: so if you're not in Xubuntu Team - but have a vague idea what we're talking about - as someone from the community - would you care if we chose 10 instead of the 6 we said we would? 20:52
ochosiHoscko: currently the wallpaper submissions aren't all publicly visible20:53
HosckoWell I would say that people who choose to use Xubuntu would like to have more choice. But there is a space limit in the iso as I've understood ?20:54
ochosithere is only a soft limit20:54
ochosiwe skipped the 1GB limit we previously had20:54
ochosibut yeah, we try to stay as low as we reasonably can20:55
Unit193And considering we hav -cjk, I don't think the limit matters. :/20:55
flocculantI said that sort of already :)20:56
Unit193How much bigger are we actually even talking?20:56
ochosiyou mean for the wallpapers?20:56
flocculant4 images20:56
ochosiaround 6mb or so20:56
ochosi(my guess)20:56
knomedepends if we push original size, or just 2560x160020:57
knomeif original, then likely more20:57
HosckoIf there's a soft limit, I would say let's go for ten, people just love having cool wallpapers.20:57
knomepleia2, ping20:58
ochosiknome: i'd go with 2560x160020:59
Unit193Indeed.20:59
HosckoI don't think there's a lot of people having bigger resolution21:00
ochosiwe're in a bit of a pickle either way, limiting the selection to 6 now might feel arbitrary to the ones who voted, "upgrading" to 10 might feel arbitrary to others (knome at least)21:00
HosckoLet's go fully arbitrary, let's take 8 XD21:02
ochosiHoscko: we're considering that too (;21:02
knomei'd say 7.5 would be the best21:03
flocculant9.521:03
Unit1939.121:03
ochosi7.721:03
flocculantochosi: you shouldn't be mucking about - we're waiting for you to close your eyes and type 6 or 10 :p21:04
ochosihaha21:04
ochosiif i knew the python random number generator generated *really* random numbers, i'd ask it21:05
Unit193ubottu: random 6 1021:05
ubottu621:05
ubottuUnit193: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :)21:05
knomeubottu is the best21:05
ubottuknome: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :)21:05
knomeno, not intelligent, just the best21:06
ochosiubottu: random 6 1021:06
ubottuochosi: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :)21:06
HosckoIs there any way for me to see the selection ? Maybe some are similar ?21:06
ochosiUnit193: you seem to be on better terms with him ;)21:06
knomeubottu, random 6 621:06
ubottu621:06
ubottuknome: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :)21:06
knome!!21:06
knomemust be 6...21:06
Unit193ochosi: Yeah, us bots, gotta stick together.21:07
ochosi:D21:07
knomeus bots and knome 21:08
* ochosi feels sorry for european bots21:08
knomeand non-ubuntustudio bots too21:08
knomeok, fine; i'm ok to include all 1021:09
knomewho contacts the winners?21:09
knomeoh right, me21:10
knome(:21:10
ochosiknome: i'm ok with waiting for more team members to have their say too21:10
ochosias long as we don't wait too long (maybe a day or so)21:10
ochosiif we're as split on this issue as we are on the "top 10" we can have yet another vote! :D21:10
knomei'd like to hear pleia2's comments too, but as the decision is ultimately yours, i don't think it makes much difference if you don't think you can be convinced with 621:11
flocculant\o/21:11
* ochosi waits for his time as the big tie-breaker21:11
knomeochosi, start eating then21:11
flocculantthat was for the vote comment btw :p21:11
knomecan't be the big breaker if you aren't big21:11
ochosiknome: waiting is ok, i'm open to 6 too. but as i said, with what we discussed so far i'm leaning to 1021:12
knomeochosi, i guess the other question is - when will you be around the next time?21:12
ochositomorrow during the day21:12
knomeok, then let's do so21:12
ochosiaround 9 to 4 or so (my time, that is)21:12
knomei can even start an email thread where people can say what they think21:12
ochosisure, whichever way you see fit21:12
knomenot a vote or anything, just to gather feedback21:12
ochosias long as i don't have to read walls of text21:12
flocculantha ha ha21:13
knomeof course you have to (:21:13
* ochosi facepalms21:13
knomei can add a policy "no walls of text"21:13
knomeochosi, team only? want to show the top 10 or not?21:13
ochosi"your feedback is limited to *one* wall of text per submitter, not author."21:13
knomeochosi, so i can send my mum's wall of text?21:14
knomeochosi, i'll let you know you wouldn't want that.21:14
knomeochosi, it's in finnish to begin with21:14
ochosii.e. feel free to send me your favorite wittgenstein quotes21:14
knomeochosi, and not related to the contest21:14
ochosiknome: yeah, the voters for now21:14
ochosithose can see the results anyway21:14
knomeochosi, so essentially one per submitted? :P21:14
knomeochosi, nope, only -website actually21:15
ochosioh21:15
ochosihmm21:15
knomethough i can make -team admins now so everybody can see it21:15
ochosiyou can also attach a screenshot of the list ;)21:15
knomeor a list of winner urls21:15
knome:P21:15
ochosiyeah, any of that is fine21:15
knomethat's what i was asking21:15
knomedo we want to share that list with all or not?21:16
ochosiall is public?21:16
knome(in the sense that is it meaningful)21:16
ochosii would only share it with -team as i'd rather not create the illusion that it's a community vote/decision21:16
ochosi(as we ruled that out before because of the timeline)21:17
knomeif you don't think the submitters/authors matter, then we can make team admins; if you think it matters; then not21:17
knomesure, i'll send off any list21:17
knomesince the walls of text are too obvious if i send to list21:17
ochosisince our discussion focused on submitters/authors it would seem strange to not share that information21:17
knomeoki21:17
knomei'll make everybody admins then21:17
ochosik then21:18
knomejust a minute while i push the switch21:18

knomeochosi, always (:21:20
ochosi->21:20
flocculantknome: so - if submitter can only *win* once - then there are 6 21:23
knomeflocculant, yes, but we have to pick *which* of their submission wins21:24
knomewhich seems to be the arbitrary process :)21:24
knomeand which indeed is a bit21:24
flocculantknome: for 2 submitters - right? 21:24
knomeyes21:24
knomeof which the other is me, and i can make that pick easy - i'll just drop my other submission21:25
flocculantwe should have said needs to be a positive total21:25
flocculantthen we'd have 5 :D21:25
knomeno, 421:25
flocculantoh yea21:25
knomewe would still have had the problem of picking two more21:26
