[17:48] ARGH [17:48] I didn't convert correctly [17:48] I can't make it :( [17:48] dude [17:48] AND you didn't email lubuntu-users [17:49] fu [17:49] *fuuuuuuuuuuuuu [17:49] wxl: I personally say screw monthly meetings and figure out a time when we need to talk [17:50] tsimonq2: i disagree. [17:50] well time zones suck [17:50] you agree with that? [17:51] nope, they don't. [17:51] wxl: Nio and Julien are in Europe [17:52] tsimonq2: keen observation [17:52] we have to coordinate with them [17:52] I'm at school all day [17:52] I want to come to the meetings [17:52] they need to come to the meetings [17:53] so two options: move future meetings back so I can make it, or keep as is and I'll never be able to attend [17:54] wxl: your choice [17:54] i would urge you to propose a different time and day then, that seems reasonable [17:54] ok [17:54] it's not my choice, it's OUR choice [17:54] ah yes [18:01] wxl: anyways, for my agenda items I'l just send emais [18:01] *emails [18:01] no biggie [18:52] o/ [18:54] hey nio [18:54] looks like simon did his time conversions wrong so he'll not be joining us [18:55] He wrote that he will be late. Is it worse, that he cannot attend at all? [18:56] that's correct [18:56] he's going to email his updates and perhaps suggest another time [18:57] OK. [18:57] he had most of the stuff on the list [18:57] so this meeting is probably going to be short and boring :) [18:58] I see [18:59] ok let's get this party started [19:00] #startmeeting Lubuntu Team Meeting 14 September 2016 [19:00] Meeting started Wed Sep 14 19:00:10 2016 UTC.

[19:05] we start building at 16:29 UTC btw [19:06] alternates are expected to take 45-50 minutes and desktop about double that [19:06] you can check here for the status of the builds https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-cdimage/+livefs/ubuntu/yakkety/lubuntu [19:06] that doesn't tell you the status of the sync, though [19:07] have to dig into the logs for that http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/cd-build-logs/lubuntu/ [19:07] that's just in case you want to know (it's also in the wiki https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/Testing) [19:07] tl;dr tell me and i'll work with release team to get it fixed [19:07] that's about all i have for QA. any other questions, comments, concerns?

[19:14] please spread the word if you know anyone interested [19:14] i think ideally we need someone who can coordinate a vision for the whole thing, in terms of organization and editing [19:15] i don't think that person necessarily needs to contribute actual content, but of course that would be an additional plus [19:15] There have been a few people contributing. Any chance some of them can be re-activated? [19:15] you mean bringing some of the old leaders in, sudodus ? [19:16] Not necessary leaders, but contributors, that might grow into leaders [19:16] sure yeah that would be good [19:16] Gustavo da Silva for example [19:16] oh i know [19:16] he was awesome [19:16] yes he was I think he ran out of free time [19:16] unfortunately he's been completely out of touch as lately. life stuff. it happens [19:16] or something [19:17] that's a good idea though [19:17] maybe i can get some stats on contributors [19:17] #action wxl to look at stats on wiki contributors, in hopes of maybe finding a good team lead? [19:17] ACTION: wxl to look at stats on wiki contributors, in hopes of maybe finding a good team lead? [19:18] another idea i had, but i'm not sure about it, is perhaps seeking out other documentation teams and seeing if they might have some interest [19:18] i think someone with a good vision could make simple tasks that anyone could just chip away at [19:18] plus we have Google Code-In coming up again and that would be a great opportunity to get those tasks taken care of [19:19] anyone interested in reaching out to the various documentation teams and see if we can dig someone up? [19:20] I will focus on testing ... [19:20] k well i'll give it a go [19:20] ... and improving mkusb [19:20] #action wxl to reach out to other documentation teams to perhaps find a lead [19:20] ACTION: wxl to reach out to other documentation teams to perhaps find a lead [19:20] ok so now we move onto the fun stuff [19:21] #topic LXQt === 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 [19:21] i've seen an increasing number of people in irc asking about when it's coming out [19:21] right now there's problems in the metapackages upstream in debian [19:21] we cannot even suggest people install the lxqt or lxqt-core packages right now [19:22] what are these current problems? [19:22] I'm not updated on LXQt. How far away is it? [19:22] meanwhile, things are also broken that we can't create an image [19:22] so we're in a bit of a limbo [19:23] Would it work to install packages into a mini system made from the mini.iso? [19:23] lynorian: 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 subject [19:23] suffice it to say, it's a pretty fundamental thing [19:23] not necessarily a "lubuntu" problem, so, no, sudodus, it's broken everywhere [19:24] subsequently, because of this the "lubuntu-qt-desktop" suggestion on the wiki page is kind of broken, too [19:24] OK [19:24] I have it iunstalled and somewhat working but the lubuntu session has really bad theming and defualt settings like the runner is not work [19:24] lynorian: from the original wiki page? [19:25] that original wiki page was at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/phillw/Lubuntu/LXQt which caused confusion for at least one user, so i deleted that [19:25] that original methodology probably does work (untested), but like you said, it's pretty screwed up [19:26] when the debian lxqt metapackages are fixed, then we can probably revise the wiki to allow for that option [19:27] and 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 apps [19:27] suffice it to say, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/LXQt is the number one source of info [19:27] i did have a little talk with tsimonq2 on this subject so i'm going to make him some reminders here: [19:28] #action tsimonq2 make a bug report for the debian lxqt metapackages and email the lubuntu-devel list about the situation [19:28] ACTION: tsimonq2 make a bug report for the debian lxqt metapackages and email the lubuntu-devel list about the situation [19:28] #action tsimonq2 update the LXQt wiki page with more information about the lxqt metapackages [19:28] ACTION: tsimonq2 update the LXQt wiki page with more information about the lxqt metapackages [19:28] any other comments or concerns about lxqt? [19:28] Getting the runner workin gin default settings [19:29] lynorian: should we ask question again once we at least get an lxqt metapackage? [19:30] yes [19:30] ok so why don't we do this [19:30] OK [19:30] #idea once lxqt metapackages are fixed, check if we can get the runner working in default settings [19:31] that's supposed to be a meetingology command [19:31] i guess we'll have to see what happens :/ [19:31] #topic anything else === 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: anything else [19:31] any thing else on anyone else's mind? [19:32] Simon was starting to get mkusb into a debian repository. Do you know anything about his progress? [19:32] unfortunately no [19:32] soo [19:33] I'll ask directly via mail [19:33] #action tsimonq2 to update the mailing list on the status of getting mkusb in debian [19:33] ACTION: tsimonq2 to update the mailing list on the status of getting mkusb in debian [19:33] anything new with mkusb, sudodus ? [19:33] Yes, there are a few new features: [19:34] 1. separated the usb-pack-efi (by Andre Rodovalho) [19:35] 2. Made it fix the problem, that some flavours (not Lubuntu) update unattended and fill the casper-rw partition [19:36] 3. Made it see card readers mounting as mmcblk0 [19:36] #3 is still is early testing stage [19:36] nice [19:37] hoepfully we can get it in debian already! [19:38] Yes - that would make it easier to install and use (and rely on). [19:39] and i would suspect encourage other flavors to use it [19:39] especially consindering how consistent and reliable it is [19:40] good work as always, sudodus [19:40] with that, i'm going to move to close if everyone else agrees [19:40] Thanks :-) [19:41] Ok for me to close the meeting [19:41] alrighty then [19:41] thanks everyone for showing up!

[21:16] yes I said with just lxqt [21:17] well I installed xorg video drivers in the VM but not the input drivers /facepalm
