flocculantok 20:11
bluesabre:)20:11
flocculantso QA thing is pretty simple - I assume people present have read the mail?20:12
krytarikYes.20:12
bluesabreyes20:12
flocculantfor the records in irc20:12
flocculantI need a break. 20:12
flocculantTeam have been sent a private mail atm detailing that.20:12
flocculantI've not completely gone - in fact I will be here as much as I am now.20:13
* pleia2 hugs flocculant 20:13
knomeack20:13
pleia2breaks are good20:13
knomeflocculant, thanks for *everything* you have done so far20:13
pleia2indeed!20:13
flocculantbut I'll not be mving things in the zeppedy zaphod zycle20:13
bluesabre+1000020:13
knome(and sorry for being too ignorant at times - probably more often than not)20:13
akxwi-davesorry hexchat had crashed20:13
knomeakxwi-dave, no problem... you just dodged a lot of things being auto-assigned to you :P20:14
flocculantI'm happy to come back - but the remaining members of team need to decide that with akxwi-dave 20:14
knome(just kidding)20:14
akxwi-dave:-)20:14
pleia2wb akxwi-dave 20:14
akxwi-daveok seems missed a bit20:14
flocculantit *is* a poisoned-chalice20:14
flocculantakxwi-dave: not really20:14
knomeso to have some kind of plan20:14
knomewe're participating in beta2, right?20:15
flocculantakxwi-dave: you have the irc pm and mail I assume20:15
flocculantknome: I'll be here till the end of YY20:15
flocculantthat's why I am doing this now :)20:15
bluesabreknome: yes for B220:15
flocculantso we can plan ;)20:15
akxwi-davehey if I can survive 25 years of marriage ... :-)20:15
knomeflocculant, sure :)20:15
bluesabreflocculant: much appreciated20:15
akxwi-daveyes got  the email anmd your pm this dinner20:15
flocculant2 seconds here20:15
bluesabre120:15
bluesabre220:15
bluesabre:D20:16
flocculantjust want people to understand that I am still here - and depending on what we do for the next cycle - I'll be about as needed20:16
knomemhm20:16
bluesabresounds reasonable to me20:16
knomeindeed20:16
flocculantI don't care what we do - either muddle along for a cycle, let Dave run it, don't20:17
* bluesabre gears up for unending development next cycle20:17
flocculantI'm cool with it all20:17
knomere: plan, if there's anybody that is interested in running qa stuff with flocculant this cycle, and potentially leading next cycle, now's a good time to talk :)20:17
knome*cough* akxwi-dave *cough*20:17
knome;P20:17
flocculantI'll be about for the next cycle still unless it all looks better - at which point there's no point in going backwARDS20:18
flocculantoops20:18
akxwi-daveohhhh ok as long as you get me that kfc20:18
flocculantheh20:18
krytarikDoesn't QA currently contain flocculant, akxwi-dave, and slickymaster?20:18
knomei'm on the team as well... granted, not very active20:19
bluesabrehttps://launchpad.net/~xubuntu-qa/+members#active20:19
knomethough i try to see my position to be an enabler... eg. making sure QA can have stuff they want on the status tracker20:20
knome(where possible and realistic)20:20
* knome saves his bottom ^20:20
akxwi-davegood getout20:20
* bluesabre claps20:20
flocculantjust for the record20:20
flocculantQA as active is akxwi-dave and me20:21
knomeyeah, slickymaster has been away from all stuff lately, even docs20:21
flocculantbut akxwi-dave has been rather trained in the last few months :P20:21
flocculanthe would certainly get a vote from me as a team member20:22
knomei'd agree with that20:22
bluesabresame here20:22
flocculantand he would certainly get all the help he needed from me 20:22
akxwi-daveWell, from me, I would be willing to stand in for a cycle, until flocculant come to his senses and comes back20:22
flocculantbut20:22
pleia2akxwi-dave: \o/20:22
knomeindeed, huzzah for akxwi-dave 20:22
bluesabreand flocculant!20:23
knomeyes20:23
flocculantif after doing it for a cycle - and deciding he wanted to carry on - I would not ever be in for any sort of fight20:23
knomehahah :)20:23
flocculantbluesabre: he's obviusly already got my vote ;)20:23
flocculantI'd then leave team of course20:24
krytarikI'm pretty sure he has everyone's vote.  I thought he was in team.20:24
* bluesabre looks to train flocculant for dev next cycle20:24
knomekrytarik, that's because he is.20:25
knome;)20:25
akxwi-dave:-)20:25
krytarikOh good, so my memory is only half failing.20:25
* krytarik hides.20:25
flocculantkrytarik: he is in team - that was the WHOLE point of -qa20:25
knomebluesabre, not the right time to say this, but i wrote my first (working) python script today...20:25
flocculantkrytarik: now I'm really not sure which you are lol20:25
bluesabreknome: congrats!20:25
knome\o/20:26
akxwi-davegrats as well20:26
krytarikSo looks like nothing more on this topic.20:26
flocculantakxwi-dave: you need to sort out irc constant to deal with the non-yorkshire people :p20:26
flocculantkrytarik: one more thing20:27
akxwi-dave:-)20:27
akxwi-davestarts to look for his rasp-pi20:28
flocculantcan people please give akxwi-dave more real support than I have had when it really matters, I cannot say this enough nor loud enough - but if QA asks people to test something and people from Xubuntu Team don't bother - why the hell should they? It REALLY is not rocket science.20:28
flocculantkrytarik: and now you can move on ;)20:29
pleia2I'll continue to do my best20:29
knomesame here - and i think that's the most one can promise...20:29
flocculantpleia2 and everyone else: everyone does - but it is usually about 5% - you can test an iso in a vm20:29
krytarikAnd of course, try to remember to report when you do.20:30
flocculantor it is pointless20:30
knomei always report when my test is appropriate for testing20:30
krytarikNo other topics?  If not, announcements.20:30
flocculantdid we briefly brush over not getting anywhere with council ?20:31
knomewhat we should try to do is getting random "testers" do valid tests and report them instead of telling us "it works" on the mailing list or social media20:31
knome(but it's easier said than done)20:31
pleia2or "it doesn't work but I don't want to submit a bug report" on list :\20:32
pleia2not sure what to do with that20:32
knomeflocculant, i'd still say the roadmap for that is in our knowledge, and now we just need to do things as we got the ACK from CC20:32
knomeflocculant, i've been AFK and busy so haven't been able to work on it after the ack, but i'll be on it as soon as i have time20:32
pleia2thanks knome 20:32
flocculantknome: yea ok but20:33
knomefor the record:20:33

flocculantafaik we need to do the things I said then - shouldn't be hard20:33
knomeflocculant, nope20:34
flocculantand I think we need to action them20:34
flocculantand20:34
flocculantpointless action anyone but knome for item 1 or it will just be interminable discussion and mails till it does20:34
flocculantso 20:34
flocculantaction knome point 120:35
flocculantI am happy to argue once we have draft :p20:35
bluesabre:)20:36
flocculantpossibly worded that harshly20:36
flocculantnot what I meant at all lol20:37
knomenp20:37
bluesabreI think it's understood20:37
bluesabreprogress is +120:37
knomeyep20:37
flocculantwell it is - just didn't meant it to sound harsh - the sentiment is right :)20:37
flocculantif Xubuntu hasn't sorted this thing out soon, then I will nominate and then not be able to vote ;)20:38
flocculantand it should be easy 20:38
flocculantreally easy20:38
knomei think we all agree on the general direction, and just need the more literal version for the strategy document20:38
flocculantI did similar with the forum and that had 200k currents20:39
knomeonce somebody (who can be me or somebody else) has the time to write that down, i think it's another easy vote20:39
flocculantknome: yea - it's about bullet points from the mail I am sure20:39
knomeyep20:39
flocculantin order20:39
flocculantso 'power of statement' dilutes20:40
flocculantthe power should always lay in the hands of 'team'20:40
flocculantthey 'give' council power and should be able to wrest it away in times of duress20:41
flocculanteverything else should be 'tasks'20:41
flocculantdoes that make sense to people?20:43
flocculantcos - all quiet .... 20:43
akxwi-dave sorry taking a long drink of IPA20:44
knomei'm having problems focusing because $other_things20:44
akxwi-daveand yes.. 20:44
knome(which is why a long pause in replying too)20:44
pleia2I admit, I wasn't really prepared for this topic20:44
bluesabresounds reasonable20:45
pleia2so I'll reread things to catch up, but it's hard for me to speak to anything right now20:45
flocculantpleia2: it's been bubbling around for ages20:45
pleia2flocculant: yes, I know, which is why I don't know what the state is20:45
knomethe state was "waiting on CC's ACK" for a long time, like a few weeks20:45
flocculantpleia2: though it's not stated specifically20:45
knomeand as everybody agreed with the general direction, i don't know why they wouldn't agree with the final literal form20:46
flocculantpleia2: recenttish was ack20:46
knomei mean, i don't intend to add or remove any subject matter to/from it20:46
flocculantbut then there has been no response from anyone at all for 4 days20:46
flocculantat all20:46
flocculanthard to know if that's a 20:47
knomeif somebody thinks something should be done, then they should have raised up concerns earlier, or do it now20:47
flocculantcarry on20:47
flocculantsto]20:47
flocculantstop20:47
flocculantpleia2: and I don't mean that I expect immediate responses either20:47
pleia2oh, I assumed we were just moving forward, my slience was assent20:48
flocculantbut neither have we had any 'wth is going on' responses20:48
pleia2we have a blueprint for this, it's moving in the correct direction20:48
flocculantpleia2: I played that game with the FC :p20:48
flocculanthence the portion you liked ;)20:48
akxwi-davesame here I assumed we were waiting for the time to nominate announcement20:48
flocculantknome: then I will take that as a +1 to doing strat doc changes20:49
flocculantcan we has vote here please 20:49
flocculantI'd like to know how long we should wait for a null to taken as a positive for any changes20:50
knomehttps://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/xubuntu-devel/2016-May/011194.html20:50
flocculantknome: so how long sensibly to get an agreed change between us for SD? 2 weeks? 20:51
pleia2I guess I'm just used to blueprint items moving along without revoting20:51
pleia2I thought it was implied that we move along to the strategy document updates, again, I thought it was pretty much finaized20:51
knomenobody replied to that, so i take the team is OK with somebody doing the writing part20:51
pleia2knome: nods20:51
flocculantpleia2: except we've not really used them for cycle(s)20:51
knomeand now that CC ack'd our draft, there's no blocked in doing that20:51
pleia2flocculant: I still use them :\20:52
knomenow we only need somebody to have time to write it20:52
flocculantknome: do you think we can do our bit by eow?20:52
knomewe did use blueprints heavily last cycle; this cycle has been very slow generally, and not much has happened, which is why blueprints haven't got too much love either20:52
knomei can't promise anything either way20:52
flocculantok20:52
knomebut it's possible, given that things don't go too much south20:52
pleia2thanks for trying, knome 20:53
knomei should be "back at the office" next week, so at latest then i'll have time to work on that too20:53
flocculantso we'll just have another meeting then20:53
flocculantknome: ack - not pressuring you here - just you know :)20:53
knomeagain it's just a task of making a bullet point list literal20:53
knomeno worries20:53
knomeif somebody else feels like doing it, go for it20:53
flocculantknome: if you want me to take ti with someone else?20:54
flocculantI've got time 20:54
knome(we'll likely end up doing one or two wording changes anyway, so no need to feel like to have to be perfect the first time)20:54
flocculantyea yea20:54
knomesure, it's up for "anybody" to pick up (assigned to -team)20:54
flocculanthas to be someone fairly active20:54

knomeyeah, i'm technically on paternity leave this week as well (if my application is approved)20:56
flocculantakxwi-dave: not dissing you, thanks for the offer, if I take this with bluesabre - it'll not be QA orientated :p20:56

bluesabreflocculant: go for it, I'll use this time to see if my wife wants to go out or something :)21:14
Unit193flocculant: So installs vs running dev.  You end up basically just testing ubiquity, which is shared with all the flavors whereas if you run dev, you're messing around with it more and thus are more likly to break something.  Right?21:15
flocculantbluesabre: ok - done the basic stuff now - I'll look tomorrow, just make sure your colour is no green or I'll be back in the 11 cycle :p21:28
