[16:47] Hey, @krytarik's referred me here. [16:48] I'm willing to help in any way I can. I believe mostly testing and maybe writing. [16:48] How can I? [17:00] g_santos: Starting points for the two areas: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/Roles/Tester , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudio [17:05] Getting the development release. Might take a while, since the internet in Brazil is funny. 2Mbytes here. [17:06] 50 times faster 5 Km from here. [18:22] #commands [18:22] that didn't work :) [18:22] \o/ [18:22] ok what am I doing wrong? [18:23] Well, I think those only work within a meeting. [18:23] * eylul sighs [18:57] will start the meeting in a few min [18:59] Krytarik, Ovenwerks, Jlye, Sakrecoer, astraljava, trebmuh [18:59] ? [18:59] meeting ? [19:00] yup [19:09] ok Krytarik it might be just you and me [19:09] (and Jlye) [19:10] Not sure. Just start the meeting, and ask for attendance - see who'll pop up. [19:10] #startmeeting "UbuntuStudio weekly check-in" [19:10] Meeting started Tue Dec 13 19:10:49 2016 UTC. The chair is eylul. Information about MeetBot at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/meetingology. [19:10] Available commands: action commands idea info link nick [19:11] #chair krytarik [19:11] Current chairs: eylul krytarik [19:12] who do we have here for meeting? [19:12] o/ [19:12] I know OvenWerks and Rosco2 mentioned they might not make it this week. [19:15] ok well, I assume the silence does mean it is 2 of us this week :D [19:18] Ok I suppose I should go through with the meeting items even through most will be not relevant. [19:18] #topic: Welcome and Agenda [19:18] #subtopic: meetingology [19:19] We are using meetingology this week. [19:19] When giving updates please use #done: tasks completed e.g. "#done finished system tab for ubuntu-controls" [19:19] When giving a summary of a situation or giving additional context use #info tag: e.g. "#info in last release we removed this package because of a bug [19:19] When putting an idea when discussing an item use: "#idea how about we make the icons blue" [19:19] If there is a place where you need input/help from another team member: "#help ardour backport needs more testing before the release candidate is posted" [19:19] #subtopic Agenda [19:20] * eylul fails at meetingology adding these for record [19:21] #topic Welcome and Agenda [19:21] #subtopic meetingology [19:21] #subtopic Agenda [19:21] * Team updates [19:21] * Active projects [19:21] ** Ubuntustudio-controls [19:22] ** website [19:22] ** Wallpaper contest [19:22] * Todo for next week and milestones [19:22] Any additions to the topic list before we continue? [19:23] Nope. [19:24] ok. well I assume we will only discuss website today. [19:24] #topic Team updates [19:24] What has everybody worked on this week? (nothing is ok), please use #done when posting. post each task on its own line. [19:26] #info not much from me this week, just some UI brainstorming with OvenWerks on -controls. [19:27] #info OvenWerks has been working on ubuntustudio-controls, see the ML for details of progress. [19:27] krytarik? [19:28] Yep, that's mainly it - plus reminding that there are packages for it in the autobuilds PPA to test. [19:29] More specifically, for all Xenial, Yakkety, and Zesty now. [19:29] lets get back to it in more detail in discussion [19:32] #info CFHowlett is working on a dry run of image uploads for the wallpaper contest [19:32] ok anything else I am missing before we move on? [19:32] Nope. [19:32] ok then [19:32] #Active Projects [19:33] >.< [19:33] #topic Active Projects [19:33] #subtopic Ubuntustudio-controls [19:36] Ok so Ovenwerks isn't here so just a summary of state of things [19:38] Well, in addition to what I said earlier, here is the link to the PPA: https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntustudio-dev/+archive/ubuntu/autobuild [19:39] ok [19:39] thanks Krytarik [19:39] #subtopic website [19:39] alright. so the internal deadline we gave ourselves is up. there is still no reply to the ticket right [19:42] So I was suggesting earlier to we call up the Community Council on this next - to try and get this forward someway. [19:43] Of course, I'll nominate our project lead, Set, for this. >_> [19:43] *nods* I am not that familiar with the procedures, but it could be a solution. [19:44] :D or you could do it? once we get the confirmation from him? [19:45] Well, I guess anyone of us could bring it up to them as well, yes. [19:46] ok [19:50] #nick Sakrecoer; #action Sakrecoer Krytarik mailing Community Council about the issue of ignored ticket. (pending approval from Sakrecoer as project lead) [19:50] #undo [19:50] Removing item from minutes: SUBTOPIC [19:50] Oops. [19:50] #subtopic website [19:50] ok you write it correctly [19:50] :) [19:51] Well, I guess with that, we failed completely now anyway. >_> [19:51] I did put the subtopic back in :D [19:51] * eylul is tempted to put meetingology hiccup as a subtopic [19:52] Yeah, but it's counting from there again. [19:52] it just undid the subtopic. just add the action item back in? [19:54] #nick Sakrecoer [19:55] #action Sakrecoer or Krytarik will email Community Council about the issue of ignored ticket. (pending approval from Sakrecoer as project lead) [19:55] ACTION: Sakrecoer or Krytarik will email Community Council about the issue of ignored ticket. (pending approval from Sakrecoer as project lead) [19:56] ok anything else on the website? [19:56] No. [19:56] ok [19:56] #subtopic Wallpaper contest [19:57] CFHowlett is working on having a small dry run contest on facebook if I understood correctly [19:59] anything else about that? [19:59] Not that I know of. [20:01] alright. [20:02] #topic Todo for next week and milestones [20:02] #info Next meeting will be at 20 Dec 2016, 19:30UTC. (https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=Ubuntustudio+meeting&iso=20161220T1930&ah=1) [20:03] that's all I have for this week [20:04] Yep, closure time. [20:04] ok lets see what the output looks like :D [20:04] this was a bit of a chaos. [20:04] #endmeeting [20:04] Meeting ended Tue Dec 13 20:04:45 2016 UTC. [20:04] Minutes: http://ubottu.com/meetingology/logs/ubuntustudio-devel/2016/ubuntustudio-devel.2016-12-13-19.10.moin.txt [20:05] ok, that might be summarized as whoops. :D [23:17] Read the back log, sorry I wasn't there. The only update on -controls is that it needs pretty much a rewrite :P The GUI will stay much the same, but needs to run as part of the user's session to work right. Therefore system setup will move to it's own CLI utility that the GUI will call. The part of the utility that completes a ubuntustudio install for people who have installed from metas rather than an ISO. It will be a simple checkbox [23:21] OvenWerks: Regarding the middle part, I was thinking later, you planning to do that as shell script or in Python too? [23:21] krytarik: bash [23:22] It is easier to get system info in bash [23:22] it is easier to run commands in bash too. [23:22] There are more people who know how to maintain bash [23:24] Writing system scripts in a secure way is better understood. [23:25] Well, not opposed to it, of course - just later thought... [23:27] krytarik: if you have something I haven't thought of... it is not a big deal either way... I can do it in c++ if we really want, but I think that would make things much harder to change down the road as well as being harder to package. [23:38] OvenWerks: Well no, I thought of (and expressed it) a shell script for this too - but considering the main script is in Python, I later thought if it'd be similarly easy to do in that, and potentially be more efficient.. [23:41] Thought of shell script first, I mean. [23:42] I may try both then... just to see. [23:43] I will probably do a bash script first (cause I already have one on my system that does some of this stuff ;) [23:52] OvenWerks: Do you actually mean Bash, or do you just use the two terms interchangably, and simple '/bin/sh' would do too? [23:53] not sure, I just normally put #!/bin/bash on top... [23:53] Well, I try to not use it unless the code requires it. [23:53] It is hard to test just /bin/sh because that normally is a link to bash anyway. [23:54] No, it's not. [23:54] your right it is a link to dash [23:54] lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Apr 22 2016 /bin/sh -> dash [23:55] Yep. [23:58] I can make it work with that. I don't think I would do anything fancy. The main thing is a case ... esac to deal with command line parameters
