seb128hey, good morning desktopers06:24

dufluHi seb12806:30
seb128ça va bien, c'est tombé de 10°C hier, ça fait du bien06:30
seb128hey duflu, how are you?06:30
dufluseb128, OK I guess. How are you?06:30
seb128I'm good06:33
seb128trying to think over coffee what we can do to make you hate the trello monthly columns less :)06:33
dufluseb128, I think another part of the problem is that we want to track SRU work. So the board itself probably shouldn't be called 19.10, but something like "April to October 2019"06:40
dufluOr a continuous rolling multi-cycle board, with a "Done in 19.10" column06:41
dufluBut those are orthogonal issues to the number of columns06:42
dufluAnd a "Done in 18.04.3 column", actually06:43
dufluAnd a "Done in 18.04.3" column, actually06:44
dufluAlso, the new wallpaper feels unclean, IMHO :)06:48
dufluWe could just drop the actual Ubuntu wallpaper in there06:48

seb128hey marcustomlinson Laney willcooke08:12
seb128how are you?08:12
oSoMoNsalut seb12808:12
seb128duflu, now you want more columns? ;)08:13
oSoMoNI'm good, how are you?08:13
Laneyhi duflu hi seb128 hey oSoMoN08:13
oSoMoNhey Laney08:13
dufluseb128, not really related. On the columns question, I like general non-dated ones. Because dates columns really necessitate a new in progress/blocked/in review/done per month08:14
dufluThat's too many08:14
dufluAnd we have a hybrid right now, which is itself problematic08:14
seb128duflu, the fact that we are not able to drive things through/get blocked by outside factor makes it a bit challening yes :/08:15
dufluIf you want to incorporate months then maybe just pick some colourful tags instead?08:15
seb128we already have more tags than trello has colors...08:15
dufluExcellent08:15

didrockscurrently rewritting awk in bash… and the bash version is, in the end, shorter…08:21
didrockssurprising08:21
* didrocks goes back08:21
seb128didrocks, mawk and gawk doesn't have a common syntax that things can be based on?08:22
dufluRewriting awk or rewriting some awk script? :)08:22
didrocksseb128: mawk doesn't have arrays, which was the reason we used awk (and in fact gawk) instead of dash scripting08:23
didrockswell, it has arrays, but not multi-dimensional08:23
seb128duflu, going back to the trello, I think the month "started" column is small enough that it's fine to no split out things blocked or in review, that should just be reflect in the status of the card08:24
didrocksduflu: would be better :)08:24
seb128if they are signed up to be shipped during that month we don't get to discard/bail out because things needs review08:24
seb128didrocks, ah, I see08:24
didrocksat least, we'll have 396 tests to proove we didn't regress ;)08:25
seb128:)08:25
dufluseb128, that implies the card owner has any control on which month it gets approved and shipped in. If you don't have that control then you end up with a growing backlog month-to-month. Sometimes in shrinks but over the long term it may only grow08:26
dufluThat's where I am now. I have a collection of unreleased cards which I can't do anything more with. The pile will only grow each month, on average08:27
seb128duflu, if you are not able to control the outcome then the work shouldn't be signed on a monthly column, we still have the untargetted ones08:27
dufluseb128,  that's everything then08:27
seb128for you maybe08:27
seb128the goal of the monthly target was to track things we sign off for shipping that month08:27
seb128there is plenty of things in that category08:27
seb128GNOME updates, SRUs, our tooling improvements08:28
seb128blog posts08:28
dufluIn that case I should have been using the untargeted column08:28
seb128yes, I think that was pretty much the outcome when we discussed it at the start of the month08:28
dufluseb128, that discussion was about performance work, which is still in untargeted08:28
seb128your work is ongoing foundation work that relies on upstream reviews08:28
seb128not really something where you can target specifics for the month08:29
willcookemorning all08:29
dufluMorning willcooke08:29
seb128hey willcooke08:29
seb128duflu, well some make sense to target for the current iteration, like SRU regressions08:29
seb128we own the SRU and ought to unblock it one way or another08:29
seb128we have the control of reverting or distro patching so we shouldn't end up blocked by upstream/review08:30
dufluYes I guess the team as a whole always has enough power to unblock those08:30
seb128duflu, I think that the rule of thumb is that things in the monthly column are things we don't want to see carried over to the next month/consider a failing if we end up doing that08:31
seb128those we are usually rolling over should be in the untargetted ones08:31
dufluseb128, I wonder if some custom stickers would be a good way to show "in review" or "blocked" within the monthly column?08:53
dufluLooks like we'd have to provide our own images08:54
seb128yeah, some tag/sticker for that would be useful09:11
Trevinhomorning09:23
seb128hey Trevinho, slightly shifting to night work hours again?  ;)09:26
Trevinhoseb128: you know, I don't give the best if I don't see the darkness :)09:27
seb128:)09:27
seb128bah, I can't reproduce that cogl i386 build hang neither on a chroot nor on a porter box, annoying :/09:46
TrevinhoLaney: so for mutter thing let me know how to proceed, I can see in checking a better fix meanwhile, however if we want mute the crash (not super-high prio as it happens on shell reload only, but still... Might lead to close all the session if g-s doesn't restart the shell properly) that is the faster way also to get .2 in disco, if instead we want the proper fix you know might need the whole upstream10:00
Trevinhoreview cycle. So I'd go with this while I propose something else.10:00
TrevinhoI've proposed the git snapshot that includes it, let me onw if you prefer me to drop it10:01
LaneyTrevinho: jadahl tried to ping garnacho about some other idea, might be nice to sync about that10:02
TrevinhoLaney: yeah I read it, and I was already looking how to do it, but I'm not sure isn't much different from what in theory we tried to do10:03
Laneywhatever makes them happy :-)10:03
Trevinhobut in case that would be the road, I'm just saying that we can in the mean time go with this. But if you want to wait more or drop the change instead let me know and I'll adapt the MR10:04
Laneyok thx, will look10:04
Trevinhoas I wouldn't wait other weeks for .210:04
oSoMoNbuon giorno Trevinho, I think you mentioned you needed input from French natives on bug #1832875 yesterday, is that still the case and if so what do you need exactly?10:09
ubot5bug 1832875 in gnome-shell (Ubuntu Bionic) "On-screen keyboard lacks several French layouts" [High,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/183287510:09
TrevinhooSoMoN: buen día oSoMoN10:10
Trevinhoso... the SRU test case should be amplied, not sure how to test the resolution10:10
Trevinhowhat's wrong, not knowing well the french layouts, I don't know how they should be10:11
seb128Trevinho, https://kali-8fa5.kxcdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/azerty-qwerty.jpg10:16
seb128basically check that top-left letter is a A and not a Q10:16
Trevinhoah, ok I was quite sure it should have been azerty, but you guys know it better :)10:18
seb128:)10:18
oSoMoNI personally use a different layout (bépo, a French dvorak variant), but I don't know whether the OSK is expected to offer "exotic" layouts OOTB10:26
dufluoSoMoN, https://wiki.gnome.org/Design/OS/ScreenKeyboard10:54
dufluAnd good night10:54
seb128oSoMoN, I don't think bepo is going to be handled11:00
seb128they stated on https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/issues/475 that they don't intend to handle random variants11:01
gitbotGNOME issue 475 in gnome-shell "OSK letter disposition does not change when different languages are choosen" [Closed]11:01
seb128their script is https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/blob/master/data/update-osk-layouts.sh I think11:01
seb128which uses www.unicode.org/Public/cldr/latest/keyboards.zip as a source11:01
seb128that has a qwertz variant11:01
seb128but not a bepo one11:01
oSoMoNthat's fair enough, until I start using a touchscreen for real keyboard input, then I'll complain loudly11:21
