tsimonq2wxl: ...17:14
tsimonq2wxl: so no meeting today?17:15
wxltsimonq2: not yet, right?17:44
tsimonq2ARGH17:48
tsimonq2I didn't convert correctly17:48
tsimonq2I can't make it :(17:48
wxldude17:48
wxlAND you didn't email lubuntu-users17:48
tsimonq2fu17:49
tsimonq2*fuuuuuuuuuuuuu17:49
tsimonq2wxl: I personally say screw monthly meetings and figure out a time when we need to talk17:49
wxltsimonq2: i disagree.17:50
tsimonq2well time zones suck17:50
tsimonq2you agree with that?17:50
wxlnope, they don't.17:51
tsimonq2wxl: Nio and Julien are in Europe17:51
wxltsimonq2: keen observation17:52
tsimonq2we have to coordinate with them17:52
tsimonq2I'm at school all day17:52
tsimonq2I want to come to the meetings17:52
tsimonq2they need to come to the meetings17:52
tsimonq2so two options: move future meetings back so I can make it, or keep as is and I'll never be able to attend17:53
tsimonq2wxl: your choice17:54
wxli would urge you to propose a different time and day then, that seems reasonable17:54
tsimonq2ok17:54
wxlit's not my choice, it's OUR choice17:54
tsimonq2ah yes17:54
tsimonq2wxl: anyways, for my agenda items I'l just send emais18:01
tsimonq2*emails18:01
tsimonq2no biggie18:01
sudoduso/18:52
wxlhey nio18:54
wxllooks like simon did his time conversions wrong so he'll not be joining us18:54
sudodusHe wrote that he will be late. Is it worse, that he cannot attend at all?18:55
wxlthat's correct18:56
wxlhe's going to email his updates and perhaps suggest another time18:56
sudodusOK.18:57
wxlhe had most of the stuff on the list18:57
wxlso this meeting is probably going to be short and boring :)18:57
sudodusI see18:58
wxlok let's get this party started18:59

wxlfinal beta is due 22 sept19:02
wxlthat said, we should expect to see images early next week19:02
sudodusSo we should announce via the mailing lists, that people should get started with the daily iso files19:02
wxlno big fires to put out, but that would be wise19:03
wxl#action wxl will make sure an announcement to the mailing list happens regarding final beta testing upcoming next week19:03

sudodusHi lynorian19:04
lynorianI am a little late19:04
wxlwe had images not sync earlier19:04
wxlthat was kind of weird. hadn't run into that before19:04
wxlif you see anything weird with dailies not being built with today's date, please let me know19:04
wxlthx to lynorian for pointing that out to me btw19:05
sudodusI will have time tomorrow (CET) to check the daily iso files.19:05
wxlwe start building at 16:29 UTC btw19:05
wxlalternates are expected to take 45-50 minutes and desktop about double that19:06
wxlyou can check here for the status of the builds https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-cdimage/+livefs/ubuntu/yakkety/lubuntu19:06
wxlthat doesn't tell you the status of the sync, though19:06
wxlhave to dig into the logs for that http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/cd-build-logs/lubuntu/19:07
wxlthat's just in case you want to know (it's also in the wiki https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/Testing)19:07
wxltl;dr tell me and i'll work with release team to get it fixed19:07
wxlthat's about all i have for QA. any other questions, comments, concerns?19:07
sudodusnot yet ;-)19:08
wxlok19:08
wxlin that case19:08

lynorianthanks for those links wxl19:08
wxlnp lynorian :)19:08
wxlso, i've been trying to explore the option of having a Lubuntu Foundation, much like LXDE19:08
wxli contacted the Software Freedom Law Center on the subject and haven't heard back. apparently they're a little slow on the uptake, so i think we need to just be patient19:09
wxlunfortunately, i'm no expert where it comes to such legalities, so i'm going to continue to keep trying that direction19:09
wxlhowever, if anyone knows of anyone that would be willing to help provide advice, maybe a reputable lawyer that understands how this world work across global borders, let me know19:10
wxluntil then, i don't see any clear solution for donations19:10
lynorianwxl +119:10
wxlat the same time, i don't necessarily see an urgent requirement for taking them in19:11
wxlthat said, i think we'll just keep on keeping on19:11
sudodusWell, I cannot contribute much, I suggest that you continue with the Software Freedom Law Center19:11
wxlglad to hear that great minds think alike XD19:11
wxlmoving on, i'm going to skip yakkety as all the discussion i have on the subject was in the qa section19:12
wxli'm also going to skip tsimonq2's agenda items because he got a little confused by the mathematics of time zone conversions ;)19:12
wxlneedless to say, he's not going to be here19:13
wxlhe did say he would email out what information he has19:13
wxlhe also might suggest different days/times for meetings so he can actually make it19:13
wxlso nexxt19:13
wxl#topic wiki19:13

wxlno new news on the wiki. still looking for someone to play lead.19:13
wxlplease spread the word if you know anyone interested19:14
wxli think ideally we need someone who can coordinate a vision for the whole thing, in terms of organization and editing19:14
wxli don't think that person necessarily needs to contribute actual content, but of course that would be an additional plus19:15
sudodusThere have been a few people contributing. Any chance some of them can be re-activated?19:15
wxlyou mean bringing some of the old leaders in, sudodus ?19:15
sudodusNot necessary leaders, but contributors, that might grow into leaders19:16
wxlsure yeah that would be good19:16
sudodusGustavo da Silva for example19:16
wxloh i know19:16
wxlhe was awesome19:16
lynorianyes he was I think he ran out of free time19:16
wxlunfortunately he's been completely out of touch as lately. life stuff. it happens19:16
lynorianor something19:16
wxlthat's a good idea though19:17
wxlmaybe i can get some stats on contributors19:17
wxl#action wxl to look at stats on wiki contributors, in hopes of maybe finding a good team lead?19:17
meetingologyACTION: wxl to look at stats on wiki contributors, in hopes of maybe finding a good team lead?19:17
wxlanother idea i had, but i'm not sure about it, is perhaps seeking out other documentation teams and seeing if they might have some interest19:18
wxli think someone with a good vision could make simple tasks that anyone could just chip away at19:18
wxlplus we have Google Code-In coming up again and that would be a great opportunity to get those tasks taken care of19:18
wxlanyone interested in reaching out to the various documentation teams and see if we can dig someone up?19:19
sudodusI will focus on testing ...19:20
wxlk well i'll give it a go19:20
sudodus... and improving mkusb19:20
wxl#action wxl to reach out to other documentation teams to perhaps find a lead19:20
meetingologyACTION: wxl to reach out to other documentation teams to perhaps find a lead19:20
wxlok so now we move onto the fun stuff19:20
wxl#topic LXQt19:21
=== meetingology changed the topic of #lubuntu-devel to: Lubuntu QA/Development | Wiki: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/QA | Support: #lubuntu | Offtopic Chat: #lubuntu-offtopic | Now Testing: Yakkety Yak Dailies (Final Beta milestone starts 20 September) | Upcoming: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/ReleaseSchedules | Lubuntu Team Meeting 14 September 2016 | Current topic: LXQt
wxli've seen an increasing number of people in irc asking about when it's coming out19:21
wxlright now there's problems in the metapackages upstream in debian19:21
wxlwe cannot even suggest people install the lxqt or lxqt-core packages right now19:21
lynorianwhat are these current problems?19:22
sudodusI'm not updated on LXQt. How far away is it?19:22
wxlmeanwhile, things are also broken that we can't create an image19:22
wxlso we're in a bit of a limbo19:22
sudodusWould it work to install packages into a mini system made from the mini.iso?19:23
wxllynorian: i only know this as hearsay from tsimonq2. apparently, there's some disagreement in debian related to taskel. i'm not sure i understand it. tsimonq2 said he'd write a bug on this subject19:23
wxlsuffice it to say, it's a pretty fundamental thing19:23
wxlnot necessarily a "lubuntu" problem, so, no, sudodus, it's broken everywhere19:23
wxlsubsequently, because of this the "lubuntu-qt-desktop" suggestion on the wiki page is kind of broken, too19:24
sudodusOK19:24
lynorianI have it iunstalled and somewhat working but the lubuntu session has really bad theming and defualt settings like the runner is not work19:24
wxllynorian: from the original wiki page?19:24
wxlthat original wiki page was at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/phillw/Lubuntu/LXQt which caused confusion for at least one user, so i deleted that19:25
wxlthat original methodology probably does work (untested), but like you said, it's pretty screwed up19:25
wxlwhen the debian lxqt metapackages are fixed, then we can probably revise the wiki to allow for that option19:26
wxland then if all goes well, (perhaps by the new lxqt release) maybe we'll have an lubuntu-next image built by canonical's servers that people can download and test the developing version of lubuntu with lxqt, including qt apps19:27
wxlsuffice it to say, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/LXQt is the number one source of info19:27
wxli did have a little talk with tsimonq2 on this subject so i'm going to make him some reminders here:19:27
wxl#action tsimonq2 make a bug report for the debian lxqt metapackages and email the lubuntu-devel list about the situation19:28
meetingologyACTION: tsimonq2 make a bug report for the debian lxqt metapackages and email the lubuntu-devel list about the situation19:28
wxl#action tsimonq2 update the LXQt wiki page with more information about the lxqt metapackages19:28
meetingologyACTION: tsimonq2 update the LXQt wiki page with more information about the lxqt metapackages19:28
wxlany other comments or concerns about lxqt?19:28
lynorianGetting the runner workin gin default settings19:28
wxllynorian: should we ask question again once we at least get an lxqt metapackage?19:29
lynorianyes19:30
wxlok so why don't we do this19:30
sudodusOK19:30
wxl#idea once lxqt metapackages are fixed, check if we can get the runner working in default settings19:30
wxlthat's supposed to be a meetingology command19:31
wxli guess we'll have to see what happens :/19:31
wxl#topic anything else19:31

wxlany thing else on anyone else's mind?19:31
sudodusSimon was starting to get mkusb into a debian repository. Do you know anything about his progress?19:32
wxlunfortunately no19:32
wxlsoo19:32
sudodusI'll ask directly via mail19:33
wxl#action tsimonq2 to update the mailing list on the status of getting mkusb in debian19:33
meetingologyACTION: tsimonq2 to update the mailing list on the status of getting mkusb in debian19:33
wxlanything new with mkusb, sudodus ?19:33
sudodusYes, there are a few new features:19:33
sudodus1. separated the usb-pack-efi (by Andre Rodovalho)19:34
sudodus2. Made it fix the problem, that some flavours (not Lubuntu) update unattended and fill the casper-rw partition19:35
sudodus3. Made it see card readers mounting as mmcblk019:36
sudodus#3 is still is early testing stage19:36
wxlnice19:36
wxlhoepfully we can get it in debian already!19:37
sudodusYes - that would make it easier to install and use (and rely on).19:38
wxland i would suspect encourage other flavors to use it19:39
wxlespecially consindering how consistent and reliable it is19:39
wxlgood work as always, sudodus19:40
wxlwith that, i'm going to move to close if everyone else agrees19:40
sudodusThanks :-)19:40
sudodusOk for me to close the meeting19:41
wxlalrighty then19:41
wxlthanks everyone for showing up!19:41
wxl#endmeeting19:41

wxltsimonq2: and update the agenda wiki while you're at it :)20:52
wxltsimonq2: if you're really good you'll include the meeting notes in with your emails to the list :) :) :)21:04
lynorianok installing the debian metapackage just with apt after the mini.iso not from tasksel will not install Xorg drivers21:06
tsimonq2lynorian: that is the problem21:15
tsimonq2"oh, tasksel will just do that"21:15
tsimonq2and it breaks networking afair21:15
tsimonq2can you confirm with the lxqt package lynorian ?21:15
lynorianyes I said with just lxqt21:16
lynorianwell I installed xorg video drivers in the VM but not the input drivers /facepalm21:17
