cyphermoxbtw there is #subtopic for that19:02
slashdok will do next time, been a while since I chair19:03
slashdany update on Gunnar sil2100 ?19:03
cyphermoxnp, it's just a bit less spammy19:03
slashdright19:03
sil2100slashd: yes, it's done o/19:03
slashdanything else you guys want to talk about before we go with our candidate, mfo ?19:04
slashdok well seems like nothing to discuss19:05
slashdToday, Mauricio (mfo) is applying for SRU Developer: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/mfo/sru-developer19:05
slashdmfo can you please introduced yourself ?19:05
mfoslashd, sure, ctrl-v19:06
mfoI'm Mauricio. I work for Canonical in the support organization, more specifically in the Sustaining Engineering team, where I fix bugs reported by Ubuntu Advantage customers, thus usually on the stable releases; fixes go across the main and universe components as necessary, both on userspace packages and kernel.19:06
mfoI've been working with Ubuntu since late 2013 for Trusty/14.04 on my previous job at IBM (and also with other company-supported distros), and have been working exclusively with Ubuntu since joining Canonical in June 2018.19:06
mfoI'm applying for SRU Developer rights mainly to off-load/load-balance the 2 sponsors in the sustaining engineering team, slashd & ddstreet, as me and19:06
mfoall other colleagues in the team currently have only them to review and sponsor our pathes (they're both great and efficient, but they also have all the rest of their own work to do), so looking forward to be able to help them and the team on that front.19:06
mfoEOF :)19:06
slashdFWIW, mfo is a colleague of mine. I closely work with Mauricio on a daily basis and I have obviously sponsored multiple packages for him.19:07
slashdso I know what he is capable of already.19:07
slashdAny questions for mfo ?19:08
sil2100I need a minute to get up to speed19:08
slashdall good19:08
sil2100(apologies, just got back from some errands)19:08
slashdsil2100, take your time19:08
sil2100mfo: ok, a small question from me: let's say you want to upload a new version of the package foo, but notice that there's already a foo in the Unapproved queue from someone else - how would you proceed? Let's assume that your foo fixes are quite important, so you'd want them in -proposed as soon as possible19:10
mfosil2100, ok, i'd reach out to the uploader to see if his/her fixes are too, and accordingly ask to upload a new version either merging our both (important) fixes, or checking if either one can/must wait.19:11
mfoeg, if current version in upload queue is not too important/time-sensitive but introduces changes that could risk the acceptance/mmigration of the quite-important/time-sensitive upload,  we could probably talk about getting the more import one first,  so not to risk it's acceptance/verification/migration/delivery :)19:14
marcustomlinsonThe suspense... ;)19:15
sil2100mfo: ok, good, thanks19:17
mfosil2100, ack, thanks.19:17
rbasakI have no questions.19:18
slashdcyphermox ?19:18
sil2100mfo: somewhat related, when building the source package (either with debuild or any other tool) there is the -v option that's being passed to dpkg-genchanges - do you know what it's used for?19:19
rbasakYour existing SRU work looks good, and generally above the standard I usually see. I would like to take the opportunity to remind everyone about the reason for Regression Potential, as documented, though. It's at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates#Procedure and should include information about how a regression might manifest even if unlikely please.19:20
mfosil2100, no, i'm not familiar w/ that option at the moment, havent used it yet, but i can certainly take the time to check it out.19:20
mfoto be honest.19:20
sil2100mfo: it's very convenient! For such situations where you want to neatly merge two uploads with separate changelog entries, you can use -v to build the package and include more than one version in the .changes file ;)19:21
mfosil2100, oh, i see. that'd be helpful in the scenario of your question, say, if we were to merge the current upload in queue w/ another one.  thanks!19:21
rbasakThat information looks like it was missing from your recent SRUs that I sampled, but I trust that you can just do that without needing to see any evidence :)19:22
rbasakSorry to step on the other thread.19:22
sil2100mfo: yw!19:22
sil2100Ok, no questions from me19:22
rbasakwithout *me needing to see any evidence, that is19:23
mforbasak, thanks for the feedback on SRU material, i appreciate it.      Hm, did I miss regression potential?  that's certainly an oversight i try hard not to make.19:23
rbasakNo you put in the section19:23
mforbasak, i'll try to find what LP it was and how it slipped through.19:23
mfoah.19:23
rbasakBut I don't think you populate it with exactly what we're looking for19:23
mforbasak, got it.  i'll review the documentation you mentioned more carefully, and adjust my templates :)  thanks for this feedback as well, and pointing that out.19:24
rbasak"Low" or trying to convince us why it is Low is somewhat pointless19:24
rbasakWe more want to know what to look out for during review, and what to ask for in any testing19:24
slashdcyphermox any questions ?19:24
slashdsil2100, all good ?19:25
mforbasak, oh I see.19:25
rbasakI mean if there is a good reason why the risk is lower than it might initially appear, that is useful to tell us about of course19:25
rbasakBut it's the other bits that I'm usually looking to understand please :)19:25
rbasakThanks :)19:26
cyphermoxno questions19:26
mforbasak, thank you for bringing that up! :)19:27
sil2100All good here19:27

mfoslashd, \o/19:29
mfothanks folks!19:29
slashdof the announcement ^^^19:29
slashdanything else you guys want to discuss ?19:29
rbasakWas there anything else int he agenda?19:30
slashdrbasak, no19:30
rbasak"Expiry policy for flavor developer team membership" -> did we do that?19:30
rbasakAnd "DMB elections for the expired 2 members"19:30
slashdcyphermox, carried over ^19:31
slashdfor the expiry policy I missed that one19:31
slashdwho is working on the expiry policy ?19:31
cyphermoxI don't know19:31
cyphermoxit was postponed last time because rbasak wasn't around, we weren't quorate19:31
rbasakI don't believe the DMB has ever looked at Steve's request because we never got quorum19:31
cyphermox(we had the votes but not more)19:32
slashdrbasak, right I'll have to read the link, I don't recall the details19:32
slashdcyphermox, do you recall the details of our previous discussion ?19:33
slashdI don't on top of my hea19:33
slashdhead19:33
cyphermoxwe didn't discuss it AFAIK19:33
slashdshould we vote for it now ?19:35
rbasakSo I have some questions19:35
slashdhow do you want to proceed ?19:35
rbasakWhat is the set of per flavour developer teams?19:35
rbasakAre cloud and server flavours?19:35
rbasakOr just the desktop flavours and ubuntustudio etc?19:35
rbasakTo be clear I think it makes sense and am happy to implement, but to implement we need a definition I think :)19:36
rbasakvorlon: ^ around?19:36
rbasakMy other request would be to ensure that the teams involved have had an opportunity to provide feedback, but I believe they have - we asked on the flavors list,e tc19:37
rbasakMaybe we can assume what the set of teams is and then vote on that.19:38
slashdright the mailling list gave them a chance to respond19:38
slashdsil2100, rbasak, cyphermox good to vote on have anything you want to address ?19:40
slashdor have ^19:40
rbasakI'm happy to vote (+1) but I'm not taking an action unless the set of teams gets defined :-)19:42
rbasakI suspect Steve will say that it's already well understood what the set is, but I'm not sure I do!19:43
slashdlet's then postpone and wait until vorlon gets back to us then ? since he doesn't seems around at the moment.19:43
rbasakI'd like to avoid blocking on this for another quorate DMB meeting19:44
rbasakThat might be a while.19:44
rbasakCan we just say that we assume the list is the desktop flavors only and vote on that?19:45
slashdcyphermox, sil2100 would you agree with that ?19:45
cyphermoxok19:45
rbasak(I'm counting Ubuntu Studio, but not Server nor Cloud)19:45
sil2100Ok19:45
rbasakAnd that we're presumably excluding Ubuntu Desktop19:46

vorlonrbasak, slashd sorry if this wasn't clear, but from my side it was implied that this is "community flavors", i.e. not those backed by Canonical and defined to be in main19:57
rbasakvorlon: thanks. Is there a list somewhere I can use?20:14
rbasakA superset would be fine20:14
rbasakWould going from the list of seed repositories work for example?20:14
vorlonrbasak: yes, the list of seed repositories would work20:24
rbasakOK thanks20:25
