bluesabrenew parole this week22:05
flocculantI got confused with May and June when I mentioned milestones ...22:05
knome:)22:05
bluesabreLots of GTK3 porting progress in Xfce land, will be trying to get some of that in Artful22:05
bluesabreSo, Xfce testing would be a huge boost right now :)22:06
flocculantbluesabre: cool - I'm bored :)22:06
bluesabre:D22:06
slickymasterWorklol22:06
bluesabreUnit193 added a new tumbler package, should support wine thumbnails22:06
bluesabreIf I am not mistaken22:06
bluesabreThe indicator stack has landed in Debian, so there might be some news there in the near future22:07
Unit193bluesabre: s/should/does/, been using it since yesterday.  Found a problem with that too. :P22:07
bluesabre:D22:08
bluesabrewelcome Unit193 22:08
bluesabreI don't think there's any other announcements from me right now22:08
knomeoki, others?22:08
flocculantnada22:09
bluesabrechecking the release schedule for important dates22:09
slickymasterWorknothing here22:09
knomewell, that kind of reminds me22:09
bluesabreFeature Definition Freeze was the 25th :D22:09
knomewe need to get the slideshow stuff going earlier this cycle22:09
flocculantbluesabre: dates are on burndown btw22:09
knomeslickymasterWork, ^22:09

knome#topic Discussion22:10
flocculantnow would be as good a time as any22:10
knomenothing on the agenda22:10
knomedoes anybody want to bring up something on the spot?22:10
knome#action knome to figure out some marketing stuff for getting ideas for the slideshow22:10
meetingologyACTION: knome to figure out some marketing stuff for getting ideas for the slideshow22:10
flocculantwhat about other artwork stuffs22:11
knomelike what?22:11
flocculantI don't know - just everything artwork always lands really really late22:12
bluesabreThere's some chatter on the mailing lists regarding slideshow deadlines and i386 to keep an eye on22:12
knomei'm trying to get it out sooner, but it's what it is :|22:12
knomebluesabre, yeah, thus the slideshow discussion above ;)22:12
flocculantwhich is why we ended up with a default wallpaper you couldn't see fsck notice on22:12
Unit193xfce4-terminal, xfce4-dict, xfce4-pulseaudio-plugin, xubuntu-artwork all sawuploads.22:12
bluesabreYeah, wanted to clarify22:13
knomeflocculant, acknowledged22:13
flocculantknome: ack - and I'm not blaming you - as I;ve said before maybe try and get community involved more22:13
flocculantand not right at the last minute ;)22:13
knomedoes anybody wnat to talk about 32-bit and/or have an opinion about it?22:13
flocculantother flavours and Ubuntu all manage to do that22:13
flocculantobviously you don't want to talk about art then22:14
bluesabreWe have at least one 32bit team member22:14
Unit193Makes more sense to keep wallpaper contests at LTS releases tome.22:14
flocculantUnit193: why?22:14
bluesabreI agree with that22:15
flocculantbluesabre: why?22:15
knomeflocculant, i don't have a problem talking about art, but i've acknowledged your worry that stuff lands (too) late but at the same time, real life is what real life is22:15
Unit193flocculant: Well, that's a looot of effort to put into voting, selecting, etc for every cycle.22:15
bluesabreMainly because it's the "stable" milestone22:15
bluesabreand something additional to hype the release22:15
knomei agree with Unit193 and bluesabre too, mostly because we haven't got too many submissions even on the contests we've done this far - we don't want to make it happen more often22:15
bluesabreand what Unit193 says22:15
Unit193And a decent point in time to put the marker.22:16
flocculantok - so I see no reason why we can't start planning for that now - because in less than 6 months it will be the lts cycle22:16
knomethe contest website is ready for submissions, it'll take 5 mins to set it up22:16
bluesabreDefinitely a good idea to plan and schedule, though we have the infra for it now22:16
bluesabreknome beat me to that22:16
flocculantbecause if we don't - then it will be March and still we#ll be thinking about doing something 22:16
flocculantbut I'll shutup and wait for when it's too late for that cycle22:17
pleia2it even has ssl now!22:17
flocculantI have no opinion on 32bit 22:17
bluesabrearchitectures is a boring topic :D22:18
flocculantwhen there is something concrete to discuss then I'll make my mind up 22:18
flocculantbluesabre: damn right - I had to do Gothic :(22:19
bluesabreThere was a suggestion in the ML to include gnome-font-viewer... I'm in favor of this suggestion22:19
bluesabreflocculant: haha22:19
flocculantbluesabre: so was I once I woke up to the right package :p22:20
flocculantoooh - also what about the core iso - are we going to try again?22:20
bluesabreWe'd like to, but it's really hard to get the folks that can do anything about it to do anything about it22:21
knomebluesabre, want to follow up on that thread and potentially set up a team vote?22:21
bluesabreflocculant: We provide the patches, they don't get reviewed :\22:22
knomeyes, my take on core is that it's always been the plan to make it official22:22
flocculantbluesabre: has it been discussed recently?22:22
bluesabreflocculant: Haven't checked in a while22:22
flocculantmmk22:22
bluesabreknome: sure, I'll do that22:22
bluesabre#action bluesabre to follow up on gnome-font-viewer inclusion and set up team vote22:23
meetingologyACTION: bluesabre to follow up on gnome-font-viewer inclusion and set up team vote22:23
flocculantI know I've not seen anything where I lurk - didn't know about elsewhere22:23

meetingologyACTION: knome to update the contest website plugin from staging22:24
bluesabreAre there any other development related things folks want to discuss?22:24
knomeor any other xubuntu-related things?22:24
flocculantbluesabre: I'm a tad confused about what gtk3 xfce we have/expecting tbh22:25
flocculantnot even sure what's on iso currently - if at all22:26
flocculant'the problem with using our ppa's' :)22:26
flocculantbluesabre: but don't need to know here and now ...22:26
bluesabreflocculant: Not sure for what we expect to have, depends on what gets done early this cycle... but we have xfce4-terminal, parole, mousepad, exo, several plugins already in22:27
knomebluesabre, Unit193 (and ochosi): i think i've asked this before, but could you put up some kind of summary about this?22:27
flocculantbluesabre: will we see panel?22:27
knomei know it's a moving target and a lot depends on what happens on the xfce side, but maybe some sketch22:27
flocculantknome: yea :)22:27
bluesabreI think I'll set up a wiki page where we can track this with some accuracy22:28
flocculantty22:28
knomewell we have the first GTK3 release of panel out, so in terms of schedule, yes, it should probably be landing22:28
knomebluesabre, ta, that'd be helpful22:28
flocculantI use the panel 22:28
bluesabreThere's some fixes coming along for the panel, but it might be good enough for release, nudge ochosi for specifics22:29
knomeconsidering we're releasing on october and it's barely june here, i think we should be safe to say enough fixes have landed before freezes22:29
knomebut again... who knows what happens :)22:29
bluesabreYeah22:29
bluesabreI'll be doubling down on the settings manager again after this parole release, so that might even be release worthy this cycle22:30
bluesabreDefinitely lots of fun things to play with22:30
flocculantbluesabre: if there's a more or less working git one of those I can install it 22:31
bluesabreflocculant: I'll look into that... I think we have something somewhere, or we can22:31
flocculantI think I did some checking and bug reporting last cycle for that on bugzilla22:31
knome#action bluesabre to put up a wikipage for traking GTK3-enabled components of Xfce in Xubuntu22:31
meetingologyACTION: bluesabre to put up a wikipage for traking GTK3-enabled components of Xfce in Xubuntu22:31
bluesabrethanks knome22:32
knomenp22:32
bluesabreNothing more from me atm22:33
knomeso... any other discussions or action items that should be added to make sure the discussions here are continued as needed?22:33
bluesabreoh22:34
knome:)22:34
bluesabreDo we want to have some sort of flexible schedule for these meetings going forward, like a monthly checkin?22:34
bluesabreThe Council just decided to get this one rolling late last week22:34
knomebased on flocculant's suggestion22:35
knomeanyway, i was about to suggest that we try to schedule the next meeting between 1-3 weeks from the last one22:35
knomeso ideally every 2 weeks22:35
knomebut give some wiggle room because life22:35
flocculantdidn't we do that before?22:35
knomei think yes at least when i was chairing each meeting :P22:36
bluesabre:D22:36
knomei mean, i don't mind chairing now and then22:36
knomeeven on others' turns if they suddenly can't come22:36
flocculantwell - on the other hand - milestones come regularly - why not just do one week prior? 22:36
knomethat's all perfectly fine22:36
knomei just hope that nobody has to be the person that is expected to chair every time :)22:37
bluesabreI'm also not opposed to chairing more frequently, but my schedule usually misses everyone elses22:37
flocculantnothing to stop having more than then22:37
knomeflocculant, definitely more coordination around milestones is needed22:37
flocculantmmm22:37
knomemight be useful to have one meeting 2 weeks before and one meeting 1 week before each milestone22:37
bluesabreSounds reasonable to me22:38
knomei think we can agree with bluesabre that the council can take the chairing for at least some of those meetings if it looks like the next-up-chair can't22:39
knomeor even:22:39
knomeschedule the meeting dates now, and the next-up-chair at that point chairs at a time that works for them - if the date isn't suitable for them at all, council takes the chair22:39
knomewith two betas that makes up to 4 "extra" meetings for council and i have no problem doing half of them if time permits22:40
knome#nick council22:41
flocculantknome: right - well I kind of meant use the 'milestones' not necessarily the ones we participate in 22:41
knome#action council to have a talk about meetings before milestones22:41
meetingologyACTION: council to have a talk about meetings before milestones22:41
knomeflocculant, aha... ack :)22:41
knomeanyway, from my POV it's better if the schedule can be organic22:42
flocculantheh22:42
