[15:09] hello Rafael! sure. [15:10] #link https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ParideLegovini/UbuntuServerDeveloperApplication [15:10] I'm Paride Legovini, longtime Linux (Debian/Ubuntu) user located in Italy. I'm currently part of the Ubuntu Server team where I work as the QA engineer. [15:10] #chair teward [15:10] Current chairs: rafaeldtinoco teward [15:10] My application page: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ParideLegovini/UbuntuServerDeveloperApplication LP page: https://launchpad.net/~paride [15:11] (sorry bout that rafaeldtinoco just wanted to assist :P ) [15:11] teward: no reason to be sorry for [15:11] alright, let's have some minutes for members to read your application (if not already) and ask you some questions [15:12] I've been involved with FLOSS development for several years now and began working with the Server Team in 2019. As part of my QA role I perform several different tasks, mostly maintaining automation of stuff, general quality checking, ISO testing and so on [15:12] I also participate in the triage process, bugfix work and merging of packages from Debian [15:13] I've also been involved in the Ubuntu Release process starting from 19.04, participating to the release "sprints" in person and lately remotely [15:14] My background before starting to work as Ubuntu fulltime is mostly in the academia (I studies physics and then geophysics), where I performed mostly IT related work for research groups [15:15] I am Debian Developer, which came handy from time to time for my Ubuntu work, and now I'm looking forward formally joining Ubuntu too :) [15:15] thanks paride [15:15] I'm a colleague of Paride's, so I intend to step back and let others drive the interview. [15:15] rbasak: tku. I'm in the same situation, so I'll open for questions of other DMB members [15:16] sil2100: teward: ddstreet: go ahead whenever you're ready. [15:18] my attention on this is only 50% at the moment - active netsec issues @ workplace [15:18] but i have no questions at this time [15:18] sil2100: ddstreet: floor's yours [15:18] paride most of your (listed) work so far has been on the devel release, have you done much sru work? [15:19] No questions here o/ [15:20] ddstreet, I didn't do SRU uploads myself, however I've been involved in the cloud-init SRU process for the past few uploads, collecting test results to fill in cloud-init SRU bugs [15:22] thanks, no more q from me [15:22] In general I did participate to sru *processes*, but without driving the process itself. Also as part of my triage process I did gave feedback on the possibility of SRUing a fix for the bug [15:22] ddstreet: thank you [15:22] are we ready to vote ? [15:23] i'm ready [15:23] #vote paride, Ubuntu Server Developer pkgset application [15:23] Please vote on: paride, Ubuntu Server Developer pkgset application [15:23] Public votes can be registered by saying +1, +0 or -1 in channel, (for private voting, private message me with 'vote +1/-1/+0 #channelname) [15:23] #votesrequired 4 [15:23] votes now need 4 to be passed [15:24] +1 light on sru work, but i'm happy with endorsements and existing work [15:24] +1 light on sru work, but i'm happy with endorsements and existing work received from ddstreet [15:25] +1 [15:25] +1 received from teward [15:25] +1 good endorsements + I have worked with Paride during release weeks for both devel and stable series and I was always happy with his work, so I'm confident that he'll do good with upload rights as well [15:25] +1 good endorsements + I have worked with Paride during release weeks for both devel and stable series and I was always happy with his work, so I'm confident that he'll do good with upload rights as well received from sil2100 [15:26] Of everyone here, that's all the non-colleague DMB members voted I think? [15:26] +1 (after all other votes). I would recommend more merges to paride so he can apply to coredev in a medium future [15:26] +1 (after all other votes). I would recommend more merges to paride so he can apply to coredev in a medium future received from rafaeldtinoco [15:26] So since they're all unanimous, I'll also provide a +1 to make quorum [15:26] +1 [15:26] +1 received from rbasak [15:26] perfect [15:26] #endvote [15:26] Voting ended on: paride, Ubuntu Server Developer pkgset application [15:26] Votes for:5 Votes against:0 Abstentions:0 [15:26] Motion carried [15:27] paride: congrats !

[15:27] ok [15:27] also thanks for the feedback on the SRU/merges work [15:28] #action rafaeldtinoco to add paride to serverdev and announce [15:28] ACTION: rafaeldtinoco to add paride to serverdev and announce [15:28] ok, we still have another application [15:28] Eickmeyer: ping [15:28] o/ [15:28] * Eickmeyer here, sleepy as it's early morning [15:28] Eickmeyer: could you introduce your self to the crew ? [15:28] #link https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Eickmeyer/MOTUApplication [15:29] rafaeldtinoco: Sure. [15:30] Hi everyone. I'm Erich Eickmeyer, leader of the Ubuntu Studio flavor, also member of the Ubuntu Community Council. I've been working with Ubuntu Studio since 2018 and became a council member in October, and was recently hired by MindShareManagement as their User Experience manager for the Kubuntu Focus line of laptops. [15:30] My background prior to involvement in Ubuntu was in Audio/Video production and photography as well as customer service. [15:31] My MOTU application is noted above, and my LP page is https://launchpad.net/~eeickmeyer [15:31] thank you Eickmeyer ! [15:31] I'll give others some mins so they can read your application. [15:32] DMB, please feel free to drop questions as needed. [15:33] I've worked a lot with Erich so i'm going to step back and let the rest of the DMB drive the interview. [15:33] (sorry i got a call from the CEO and had to take it - being the IT Security Guy at work is a... well, big thing xD) [15:34] teward: alright, good luck =) stay close [15:34] yup [15:34] (I'm work from home - i ain't going anywhere xD) [15:37] Eickmeyer it seems like most of your uploads are in the devel series, and not much SRU work, is that right? [15:37] ddstreet: Not completely correct. There are several uploads I've done for SRU work, as sil2100 could probably tell you. :) [15:38] With my UbuntuStudio packageset, I've even sponsored an SRU or two. [15:40] Eickmeyer: could you point me out a diff of one of your most challenging uploads ? (one you feel proud about) [15:40] rafaeldtinoco: Let me see what I can find. [15:43] rafaeldtinoco: Having difficulty, but there's one for rapid-photo-downloader that basically required an interim upload even though the upstream developer, who filed the SRU, wanted the complete next version which had too many new features to qualify for an SRU. [15:43] So we uploaded an interim version which fixed a crash in the application. [15:44] rafaeldtinoco: Here's the diff: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archive/primary/+files/rapid-photo-downloader_0.9.22-0ubuntu1_0.9.23a1-0ubuntu0.20.04.1.diff.gz [15:44] Eickmeyer: thank you! [15:45] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/rapid-photo-downloader/+bug/1873944 [15:45] Launchpad bug 1873944 in rapid-photo-downloader (Ubuntu Groovy) "[SRU] Upgrade rapid-photo-downloader to version 0.9.23a1" [High,Fix released] [15:48] Eickmeyer: I see that your appliacation only has one endorsement - is there any reason for that? [15:48] sil2100: Just lack of people available. I put the word out about two weeks ago. [15:49] EOY is not a good time for endorsements =).. anyway I could add there that I have ran pkgset changes script many times because of Eickmeyer [15:50] he has been adding packages to his seeds very actively lately [15:51] Eickmeyer follow up q on that bug, i see it was rejected at first, and then reuploaded and then approved, was there discussion between you and any of the sru members before you reuploaded? i dont see any discussion in the bug comments [15:52] ddstreet: Myself and bdmurray had some conversations in #ubuntu-release on how to proceed. [15:52] ok excellent thanks [15:54] I'll put this out there since it was only last week: I uploaded a fix to mate-optimus (a dgpu/igpu switching applet for all DEs) that had an incorrect call for KDE Plasma to logout which didn't allow for saving the current session. The fix was very easy. [15:54] It's in the ubuntustudio packageset since graphics performance is something Studio users can benefit from. [15:55] sil2100: I would have done a full endorsement, but time was not my friend [15:56] RikMills: thanks! [15:56] * sil2100 has no other questions [15:56] Eickmeyer: have you had a package stuck in proposed before? [15:57] rbasak: agordejo got stuck recently due to a FTBFS for itself due to a FTBFS for nuitka, which has since resolved with a new version of nuitka. I currently have ubuntustudio-meta stuck due to needing riscv64 builds removed from it, pinged #ubuntu-release to have that resolved, will ping again today. [16:00] ddstreet: are you good with questions ? [16:00] i know sil2100 is [16:00] yep no more q from me [16:00] ok [16:00] no more questions from me either [16:00] rbasak: let me know when you're good pls [16:00] (no rush, take your time) [16:02] * ddstreet quick coffee refill [16:02] ddstreet: bring me some :P [16:02] * Eickmeyer notes that teward typically drinks coffee by the gallon [16:02] Eickmeyer: 10-gallon drum now. [16:02] (sorry for ot divergence) [16:03] Yikes. XD [16:04] * ddstreet back [16:04] Eickmeyer: I see many -0ubuntu1 packages in Ubuntu [16:04] Do you have any plans to integrate with Debian? [16:05] What's the split between packages you maintain that are only in Ubuntu, and packages that have deltas against Debian? [16:05] rbasak: Some of that has happened organically (lsp-plugins, for instance, was taken upstream early last year), and I do watch the Debian mulitmedia lists frequently as part of that team. [16:05] (I'm not saying that these are bad or good, just trying to understand) [16:06] The packages that have deltas against Debian are typically quick fixes or patches past Feature Freeze. When possible, I try to sync from Debian. [16:07] For example: for the mate-optimus delta, again, that was a quick fix that I've got an upstream PR in on, which will invalidate that patch I made for the Ubuntu version. [16:08] And while it's a pre-FF fix, development on mate-optimus is slow. [16:09] Most likely with Ross Gammon's help, I'll be able to do more with Debian. [16:10] OK thanks [16:10] I'm ready to vote [16:10] alright [16:10] thanks rbasak [16:11] #vote Eickmeyer MOTU motion [16:11] Please vote on: Eickmeyer MOTU motion [16:11] Public votes can be registered by saying +1, +0 or -1 in channel, (for private voting, private message me with 'vote +1/-1/+0 #channelname) [16:11] #votesrequired 4 [16:11] votes now need 4 to be passed [16:13] +1 [16:13] +1 received from rbasak [16:13] I'm mainly swayed by teward's endorsement, especially as he's your primary sponsor [16:14] hm [16:14] +1 I know Eickmeyer from his requests and I feel his enthusiasm. My vote is to encourage him to keep pursuing the same with universe packages (specially helping guaranteeing quality in fixes).
