[00:00] <nixternal> k, I am back
[00:00] <apachelogger_> nosrednaekim: go ahead
[00:00] <apachelogger_> wb nixternal
[00:00]  * nixternal got an irn bru
[00:00] <apachelogger_> hrrhrr
[00:00] <Riddell> nosrednaekim: fridge it better
[00:00] <Riddell> Tutorials Day
[00:00] <Riddell> should we have another one?
[00:00] <nosrednaekim> Riddell: ok, I'll give you something tommorow
[00:00] <nosrednaekim> Riddell: yes!
[00:00] <nixternal> Riddell: yes
[00:00] <apachelogger_> yes
[00:00] <Riddell> any suggestions for topics?
[00:00] <Nightrose> +1 for another tutorial day - the last one seemed to have been a success
[00:00] <Serega> yes
[00:01] <Riddell> seele said she'd do a talk on usability
[00:01] <nixternal> Basics and Getting Involved
[00:01] <nosrednaekim> python plasma widget....
[00:01] <JontheEchidna> I'd like a python plasma widget tutorial...
[00:01] <Serega> merging!
[00:01] <Riddell> nosrednaekim: is that you volunteering?
[00:01] <nixternal> Getting Involved would cover: artwork?, documentation, packaging, programming, and more
[00:01] <apachelogger_> Riddell: btw, I think we should do a packaging day once per cycle to get the latest and greatest software in, and to get more motus, faster
[00:01] <nosrednaekim> Riddell: depends when the session is, but If I can make it, sure
[00:02] <Riddell> nosrednaekim: on python plasma widgets (I've no idea how to make them)
[00:02] <seele> Riddell: is this a user or developer tutorial day?
[00:02] <Serega> +1 to apachelogger_
[00:02] <Riddell> nosrednaekim: oh, when
[00:02] <Riddell> seele: newer developers mostly
[00:02] <nixternal> Riddell: python plasma widgets are easy :)
[00:02] <Riddell> nosrednaekim: we can decide that when we know who's speaking, but soon
[00:02]  * JontheEchidna can't seem to figure out how to install the python example widget
[00:02] <seele> ok
[00:02] <Nightrose> txwikinger or yuriy could do a bug traige tutorial
[00:03] <Nightrose> *triage
[00:03] <nosrednaekim> Riddell: it would have to be on a weekend for me
[00:03] <yuriy> yeah, i'll do one
[00:03] <Nightrose> yuriy++
[00:03] <a|wen> yuriy: cool :)
[00:03] <nixternal> I say we poll the community on what they would like to see (ie. email kubuntu-users and kubuntu-devel for ideas) maybe/
[00:03] <seele> Riddell: when is the date for this (or is that tba?)
[00:03] <Riddell> seele: to be decided
[00:03] <nixternal> tba
[00:04] <Riddell> nixternal: want to send that e-mail?
[00:04] <nixternal> Riddell: will do
[00:04] <nixternal> shoot, there is an America's meeting tonight
[00:05] <Riddell> ok, I'll talk to people and we'll work out a date and timetable
[00:05] <Riddell> nixternal your item next
[00:06] <nixternal> Riddell: any updates? ie. wiki page with everything pooled?
[00:06] <nixternal> from UDS that is
[00:06] <nixternal> we covered my * Days topic with the Tutorial's Day
[00:06] <Riddell> https://wiki.kubuntu.org/KubuntuUDSPragueSpecs has them all
[00:06] <nixternal> rock on, so on to Kubuntu 8.10
[00:06] <nixternal> plans and ideas are covered
[00:07] <nixternal> what is the status of KDE 3? universe or gone for good?
[00:07] <nixternal> I keep hearing differently
[00:07] <Riddell> they aren't approved yet, so it's possible the specs will get split or wee bits changed, but not much
[00:07] <yuriy> about UDS specs, i was wondering about packagekit, because it's mentioned in one of the specs
[00:07] <yuriy> to be used for the notifier
[00:07] <nosrednaekim> yes, I'd like to know about packagekit too
[00:07] <ScottK> nixternal: I vote removal.
[00:08] <Riddell> nixternal: the desktop is gone, the libs will remain for where there's no kde 4 app yet
[00:08] <nixternal> then we need to stop merging/syncing kde 3 apps if we do decide on removing
[00:08] <nixternal> or are we keeping those
[00:08] <Riddell> it'll go to universe if there's no kde 3 apps needed in main, but I don't know if that'll happen (amarok, k3b, digikam all unknown)
[00:08] <nixternal> digikam will be ready by 8.10 release
[00:08] <nixternal> Nightrose or apachelogger_? amarok?
[00:08] <Serega> konversation :(
[00:08] <nixternal> haven't heard much about k3b
[00:08] <JontheEchidna> :( ++
[00:08] <nixternal> ahh ya, konversation as well
[00:09] <Riddell> if there's a stable kde 4 version (or one known to be stable before 8.10) we should go with that now
[00:09] <Riddell> else merge the kde 3 version
[00:09] <nixternal> I think most of my apps have kde4 releases soon
[00:09] <nosrednaekim> nixternal: I just saw a screenshot of kde4 k3b
[00:09] <nixternal> smb4k, krename, and I just forgot the others
[00:09] <Nightrose> october? I really hope we have something usable by then
[00:09] <apachelogger_> no
[00:09] <apachelogger_> not possible
[00:09] <nixternal> what?
[00:09] <apachelogger_> we would have to lock everything down
[00:10] <apachelogger_> get everyone to fix bugs and implement missing features
[00:10] <nixternal> wow, OK, so keep amarok kde3 in
[00:10] <yuriy> amarok 2 is decently usable already, is it really not feasible to have a usable version by october?
[00:10] <apachelogger_> yuriy: no
[00:10] <apachelogger_> gsoc code gets in
[00:10] <apachelogger_> and there is a lot of minor issues
[00:10] <Serega> +1, amarok is very good already
[00:10] <apachelogger_> and with a lot I mean tons of them
[00:10] <Nightrose> hmmm soc - good point
[00:11] <Riddell> or we could go with juk again
[00:11]  * Nightrose checks when soc pens down date is
[00:11] <Riddell> but that sort of thing we said we'd look at around 4.1 release time
[00:11] <yuriy> if somehow it comes down to amarok being the only kde3 app, should we go to juk by default?
[00:11] <nixternal> I wouldn't do that, we would be cussed to death
[00:11] <a|wen> yuriy: i would say no
[00:12] <nosrednaekim> I need my amarok by default... *hugs*
[00:12] <nixternal> ok, so this is something we can look at again in 2 months?
[00:12] <Nightrose> apachelogger_: pencils down for gsoc is in mid august
[00:12] <nixternal> err, less than 2 months
[00:12] <nixternal> next month
[00:12] <Riddell> nixternal: end of next month
[00:13] <nixternal> Riddell: my birthday
[00:13] <ScottK> nixternal: But if something is going to die in Intrepid (and we know it) let's kill it now so people don't waste time messing with it.
[00:13] <Riddell> I'm afaid we're still blocked on main inclusion reports for kde 4 in intrepid, hopefully pitti or doko will look at those soon
[00:13] <nixternal> ScottK: +1
[00:14] <Riddell> incidently the KubuntuIntrepidKDE4Porting has plenty of work for keen coders
[00:14] <nosrednaekim> yep... I was wondering if mountconfig needs porting?
[00:14] <nosrednaekim> I'd hate to see that not be in there
[00:14] <nixternal> Riddell: I am down for some coding!
[00:15] <Riddell> packagekit doesn't seem to be ready for bigtime from our discussions at fosscamp and uds
[00:15] <apachelogger_> Nightrose: as said, impossible
[00:15] <ScottK> Riddell: For packages that are in KDE3/KDE4 and we know they will go KDE4, why not just reuse the same package name an no MIR needed.
[00:15] <Riddell> I'd like to see it replace adept_batch, but for the rest adept 3 seems our best way
[00:15] <Riddell> ScottK: we do
[00:15] <ScottK> OK
[00:15] <Riddell> ScottK: the current block is just that kde 4 has a number of new dependencies
[00:15] <yuriy> Riddell: why have it replace adept_batch?
[00:15] <yuriy> and still have the adept notifier?
[00:15] <nixternal> there are new packages that need MIR (akonadi)
[00:16] <nixternal> libkthis and libkthat :)
[00:16] <ScottK> Why do we need akonadi in Main for this release?
[00:16] <nixternal> KDE PIM
[00:16] <Riddell> yuriy: notifier I don't think can ever use packagekit, and I believe packagekit isn't ready yet for upgrader
[00:16] <ScottK> Is it a build-dep?
[00:16] <nixternal> and there may be another app or 2 that utilized akonadi
[00:16] <nixternal> ScottK: yes
[00:16] <ScottK> I thought Kmail wouldn't use akonadi until 4.2
[00:16] <ScottK> OK.
[00:16] <Riddell> ScottK: kdepimlibs depends on it
[00:17]  * ScottK shudders
[00:17] <ScottK> OK.
[00:17] <nixternal> it actually works well
[00:17] <nixternal> at this current time
[00:17] <apachelogger_> I luv my akonadi
[00:17]  * ScottK loves his maildir
[00:17] <Riddell> but kdepim itself doesn't use it yet
[00:17] <nixternal> hehe
[00:17] <nixternal> mailody does
[00:17] <nixternal> ;)
[00:17] <apachelogger_> right
[00:18] <Riddell> shall we move on?
[00:18] <ScottK> Sure
[00:18] <nixternal> ya, skip the website updates, ryan isn't around
[00:18] <nixternal> we are still awaiting canonical on that I take it?
[00:18] <Riddell> Developer Days, Q&A Days, and more... -- nixternal ?
[00:18] <nixternal> Riddell: re: Tutorial's Day
[00:18] <Riddell> website is indeed still waiting on sysadmin to fix dripal
[00:18] <nixternal> we can tie those in
[00:18] <Riddell> drupal
[00:18] <ScottK> nixternal: I really don't like the idea of dumping all my mail into another opaque data structure.
[00:18] <Riddell> so Subteams nixternal??
[00:19] <nixternal> what do people think on having some structure like that?
[00:19] <Riddell> like what?
[00:19] <nixternal> it is something I am implementing with my new job and has people buzzing already
[00:19] <nixternal> a QA team, Packaging team, doc team, and so on...defined teams that is
[00:20] <nixternal> that way there we can create defined structure easily for future contributors to get involved in
[00:20] <yuriy> like this spec for support? https://wiki.kubuntu.org/KubuntuSupportTeam
[00:20] <ScottK> Are we big enough to need the bureacracy?
[00:20] <nixternal> just an idea, no need to yay or nay it right now
[00:20] <Riddell> what would the teams do?
[00:21] <Nightrose> ScottK: i don't think it is about need but about giving new contributors a clear point of contact
[00:21] <nixternal> work specifically and be point of contacts within each team
[00:21] <Nightrose> which i think is a very good thing
[00:21] <nixternal> right now, it is hard to see who is doing what and where
[00:21] <ScottK> We can make points of contact per function without having formal teams.
[00:21] <nixternal> true
[00:22] <ScottK> If you want to get involved in docs, bug nixternal for example.
[00:22] <nixternal> NOOO!
[00:22] <ScottK> I'm not sure what more we reallly need right now.
[00:22] <nosrednaekim> uhhg dinner... later
[00:22] <nixternal> later nosrednaekim
[00:22] <ScottK> If you want to get invovled in QA, contact nixternal
[00:22] <ScottK> You get the idea.
[00:22] <nixternal> hahahaha
[00:22] <nixternal> I knew you would go there
[00:22] <nosrednaekim> oh, and if you want to get involved in user support, please do contact me :)
[00:22] <yuriy> nosrednaekim: you're nixternal now?
[00:23] <nosrednaekim> nixternal? heck no
[00:23] <nosrednaekim> XD
[00:23] <Nightrose> nosrednaekim: noooo - it is "if you wnat to get involved in * contact nixternal" ;-)
[00:23] <ScottK> Functional contacts make a lot of sense, but I don't see a need for formal teams.
[00:23] <nosrednaekim> dang...   I don't mind that a bit personally.  Is it a problem?
[00:24]  * a|wen agrees with ScottK ... but clear points of contact would be good
[00:25] <Nightrose> nixternal: what about you make a list of "teams" you think are useful and name people who could be points of contact
[00:25] <yuriy> i think a couple "hey guys, fill out the report!" on the 20th will do
[00:25] <Nightrose> and if they agree they could be responsible for the team reports as well
[00:25] <yuriy> for those that aren't opposed to it on principle
[00:25]  * ScottK likes a word like 'areas' or something rather than teams.
[00:25] <nixternal> ScottK: yes it is actually, because members within Canonical actually do read them and see where the worth in the projects are (at least according to other Canonical employees)
[00:26] <nixternal> well, there is a page on the wiki for Kubuntu contributors to put what they have worked on for the time period
[00:26] <ScottK> It's not clear to me how much Kubuntu needs to care about Canonical emplyees beyond the one.
[00:26] <Nightrose> ScottK: we should care if we want to change that number ;-)
[00:27] <nixternal> there is potential for that, but if our reports say "merging, updating, fixing bugs", then where is the worth in that? we can't go by the to prove we are worthy of being a valid project
[00:27] <ScottK> Nightrose: I think that'll change based on support contracts sold, not report writing.
[00:27] <nixternal> plus, I use those reports for the release notes
[00:27] <nixternal> it makes hunting on my part much easier
[00:28] <santiago-ve> @now
[00:28] <nixternal> but if I am the only one that really cares about them, then let it rest
[00:28] <Riddell> I'd like to see us have reports
[00:29]  * Nightrose cares about them as well - at least a little
[00:29] <yuriy> nixternal: i think prodding people a little a couple days before they are due will be enough
[00:29] <nixternal> yuriy: it isn't, been trying that for 3 months now
[00:29] <nixternal> you work on something the 1st, come the 20th you already forgot
[00:29] <Riddell> but it is another bit of administrata that is hard to find enthusiasm for when the time comes
[00:29] <yuriy> i wasn't aware the kubuntu team does reports other than release notes until i went poking through your revamped wiki
[00:29] <nixternal> and then after the release notes are out and the reports are complete, people are like "hey what about this.'
[00:30] <Riddell> but I think other teams are in a similar situation
[00:30] <nixternal> Riddell: I have no problem managing the reports, I have been doing it since we started pretty much
[00:31] <santiago-ve> sorry for being late guys...
[00:31] <nixternal> Riddell: also another thing I thought of, was Hobbsee was our community manager, and since she has gone to the dark side, were there any plans on keeping that open for someone, or just letting it go
[00:32] <hacktick> @time
[00:32] <Riddell> if someone wants it, sure
[00:32] <nixternal> Riddell: and yes, other teams are in that same situation in regards to the reports, but we don't want to be like those teams, we want to be #1
[00:33] <nixternal> what were the exact roles as a community manager?
[00:33] <Riddell> you'd need to ask Hobbsee
[00:33] <Riddell> point of contact mostly
[00:34] <nixternal> anyone you would like to appoint or just toss it out there for anybody?
[00:34] <Riddell> I don't think there's any answer to the report issue, unless someone is keen to do it, it's just a case of poking harder at the end of the month
[00:35] <Riddell> nixternal: I'm not all that fussed
[00:36] <nixternal> k
[00:36] <nixternal> any other points/
[00:36] <Riddell> I'm thinking we're done for this meeting
[00:36] <santiago-ve> Hey
[00:36] <nixternal> woo
[00:37] <nixternal> @now
[00:37] <Riddell> santiago-ve: hey?
[00:37] <nixternal> OK, that Americas Ubuntu Membership Approval Board is tonight for those of you wondering!!!
[00:37] <n0rman> :)
[00:37] <ScottK> seele: Is the MD meeting still on tonight?
[00:37] <santiago-ve> Riddell, meanwhile i learn how to package and stuff... i would like to contribute to the kubuntu website~
[00:38] <a|wen> nixternal: someone has to excercise ubottu ;)
[00:38] <santiago-ve> i've talked about that with nixternal before~
[00:38] <Riddell> santiago-ve: still waiting on sysadmin for the new website to be launched
[00:38]  * Riddell will poke about that tomorrow
[00:38] <yuriy> nixternal: for teams, you made the wiki page https://wiki.kubuntu.org/Kubuntu/Teams and I think it would be helpful for people to add themselves to it as contacts
[00:38] <Riddell> santiago-ve: seen https://wiki.kubuntu.org/KubuntuIntrepidWebsite ?
[00:38] <seele> ScottK: yes at 8
[00:38] <yuriy> but don't see a  need to formalize it
[00:39] <ScottK> seele: OK.  I'm still the only one in the channel, so I wondered.
[00:39] <Riddell> yuriy: that sounds good
[00:39] <santiago-ve> Riddell, aye...
[00:39] <a|wen> Riddell: what about adding the teams wiki-page to topic in #kubuntu-devel ?
[00:39] <seele> ScottK: yeah, md peeps dont tend to sit on irc
[00:39] <Riddell> a|wen: go for it
[00:40] <a|wen> Riddell: it should be done through ubottu right?
[00:41] <Riddell> a|wen: no, it's a free topic
[00:41] <Riddell> meeting over, thanks all, let's move to #kubuntu-devel for anything more
[00:44] <nixternal> Pretto, n0rman, LaRoza, brandonperry, hacktick: MEMBERSHIP MEETING IN 1 HOUR AND 15 MINUTES!
[00:45] <Pretto> nixternal, thanks
[00:45] <n0rman> nixternal: thnx :)
[00:45] <nixternal> if you know anyone else I didn't just highlight, let them know
[00:45] <nixternal> I made an error earlier by thinking it wasn't tonight
[00:45] <n0rman> ok :) ehehehe
[00:45] <n0rman> np
[00:46] <Pretto> nixternal, hehhe.. as i said to you earlier :)
[00:46] <nixternal> don't know what I was thinking
[00:46] <nixternal> I saw June 5 and thought tomorrow
[00:47] <Pretto> nixternal, that ETC/UTC is a bit confusing
[00:47] <Pretto> nixternal, i lost the last meeting this way too
[00:48] <nixternal> make sure your wiki's are rockin' !
[00:49] <n0rman> i supposed that mine is rockin :P i hope :P
[00:49] <Pretto> n0rman, if i change something now i can mess it all :)

[01:17] <leogg> Pretto, it's GMT-6 time
[01:18] <Pretto> leogg, ok.. here is GMT-3
[01:19] <LaRoza> Why can't times be all the same?
[01:20] <LaRoza> I'd glady take the month to get used to it...
[01:20] <nickellery> so that people with different schedules or are busy at a certain time have a chance to come to the meeting
[01:21] <LaRoza> I mean around the world
[01:21] <nickellery> ooh
[01:21] <nickellery> sorry
[01:21] <LaRoza> Its alright
[01:21] <nickellery> so that we can see in the afternoon :D
[01:21] <LaRoza> Misunderstandings are common in text only environments
[01:21] <Pretto> i lost last meeting due to etc/utc misunderstood
[01:21] <nickellery> im terrible at that
[01:22] <nickellery> And I always have trouble trusting www.timeanddate.com
[01:22] <LaRoza> I came on this channel 4 hours early I think to avoid missing it
[01:22] <nickellery> Don't know why...
[01:24] <LaRoza> There might be a storm coming, if my internet goes out I'm sorry
[01:25] <hacktick> :)
[01:25] <Pretto> LaRoza, here is running now
[01:25] <Pretto> ops
[01:25] <Pretto> raining
[01:26] <LaRoza> Where is "here" for you?
[01:26] <LaRoza> I live in USA, Pennsylvania
[01:26] <n0rman> :P
[01:26] <jacob> LaRoza: same here. rain coming *and* my radio receiver box is failing. perfect combination!
[01:26] <Pretto> Laney, Brazil, Alagoas
[01:28] <vorian> LaRoza: Pennsylvania? awesome
[01:28] <LaRoza> vorian: Awesome for a particular reason?
[01:28] <LaRoza> Call of nature...brb
[01:29] <jacob> LaRoza: means you live next to the greatest state in the US! :D (awaits state-based flamewar)
[01:30] <LaRoza> Hopefully, you are not referring to New Jersey!
[01:30] <jacob> LaRoza: oh, no.
[01:30] <LaRoza> PA isn't a state, it is a commonwealth by the way
[01:30] <LaRoza> (Ohio, I know)
[01:30] <nosrednaekim> NJ! yes!
[01:30] <jacob> think southwest
[01:31]  * nosrednaekim is a proud member of that  wonderful loco team :)
[01:33] <jacob> ohio loco ftw.. though our team has been pretty quiet lately.
[01:35] <LaRoza> The storm is coming...
[01:35] <LaRoza> I hope I can stay, internet already is slowing down for me
[01:39] <Pretto> LaRoza, i hope that i don't loose the power force
[01:40] <nickellery> 20 more minutes~
[01:40] <nickellery> !
[01:47] <Pretto> @now
[01:48] <cody-somerville> wee!
[01:48] <jacob> ubottu is excited, changing the topic early and all
[01:50] <OgMaciel> hey there effie_jayx
[01:50] <nixternal> OK, if you are going for membership tonight, make sure you wiki pages are rockin' and get your supporters ready :)
[01:50] <nixternal> oh no
[01:50] <nixternal> OgMaciel: what are you doing here?
[01:50] <OgMaciel> hehehe
[01:50] <OgMaciel> nixternal: making sure YOU stay out of trouble
[01:51] <nixternal> this is an Ubuntu Membership deal, not a rPath/Foresight Membership :)
[01:51] <Pretto> nixternal, OgMaciel is my support :)
[01:51] <nixternal> Pretto: -1
[01:51] <n0rman> :)
[01:51] <Pretto> nixternal, hahhahha
[01:51] <nixternal> OgMaciel: he thinks I am joking :P
[01:51] <OgMaciel> :P
[01:51]  * OgMaciel knows nixternal has got his green shirt underneath
[01:52] <nixternal> OgMaciel: I am wearing an rPath shirt actually :)
[01:52] <Pretto> nixternal, hey... don't let me down before start :(
[01:52] <OgMaciel> hehe

[02:00] <nixternal> nickellery: you up first to get you on your way
[02:00] <nickellery> alright!
[02:00] <nickellery> Hi all, my name is Nick Ellery, and I am a resident of Vancouver, Canada.
[02:00]  * chuckf is here too
[02:00] <nickellery> I currently contribute to Ubuntu as an en_CA translator, answer tracker, laptop tester, and as a member of the Ubuntu Documentation Team.
[02:01]  * n0rman here 2
[02:01] <nickellery> Recently, I began working on Launchpad documentation too.
[02:01] <nickellery> I also participated in Tuesday’s Hugs for Bugs day here:  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBugDay/20080603
[02:01] <nickellery> For the Documentation Team, I currently work as a technical reviewer.
[02:01] <nickellery> My job is to review the system documentation currently in development, review it, and submit patches to be committed.
[02:01] <nickellery> A full list of every page I’ve reviewed can be view here:  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DocumentationTeam/TechReviewStatus
[02:01] <nickellery> My plans for the future include getting more involved in bug triaging and joining the ubuntu-bugcontrol team, becoming a member of the ubuntu-doc-core team which has commit rights, and increasing activity on the forums.
[02:01] <nickellery> My wiki page:  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Cloudfx

[02:01] <nickellery> Thanks!
[02:02] <nixternal> I can vouge for nickellery's doc work as he has been one of the few students to join up, contribute, not get bored, and stick around
[02:03] <nickellery> thanks nixternal :)
[02:03] <Technoviking> good karma
[02:03] <cody-somerville> I can vouch that my inbox gets filled up with bug mail from nickellery :P
[02:03] <nixternal> what is wrong with <xref linkend="foo-is-bar" /> when foo-is-bar is located outside of a book and in its own article?
[02:04] <effie_jayx> You seem pretty active in bugs. Congrats
[02:04] <nixternal> just kiddin' :)
[02:04] <OgMaciel> :P
[02:04] <nickellery> nixternal, -_- you scared me for a second
[02:04] <nixternal> On Deck: n0rman, awalton__, and then mneptok as they were bumped last week...get ready :)
[02:05]  * Pretto is waiting too
[02:05] <nixternal> Pretto: ya, sorry, you and cgregan to be exact
[02:05] <Technoviking> Looks like afine body of work to me, anyone else have any questions?
[02:06] <cody-somerville> nickellery, What was your biggest challenge yet?
[02:06] <nickellery> I would say that would be learning about the Documentation Repository.
[02:07] <nickellery> I'm not involved in any programming, and therefore it was something quite new to me
[02:07] <nixternal> haha, mine too (/me isn't the biggest bzr fan yet)
[02:07] <nixternal> our repos can definitely be tricky since we have switched from svn a while back

[02:18] <MootBot> New Topic:  A. Walton for Ubuntu Member
[02:19] <awalton__> hurray
[02:19] <nixternal> awalton__: introduce yourself :)
[02:19] <ZehRique> congrats norman
[02:19] <awalton__> Please try to bear with me, I've been down with the flu for almost a week now and I'm not quite back to 100%. URIs: https://edge.launchpad.net/~awalton https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Awalton
[02:19] <awalton__> My name is Andrew Walton, as stated on my wiki page I go online as awalton and in real life mostly by my last name. I am 21 years old, and a resident of Central Kentucky and FreeNode IRC. If you have a question about anything, feel free to ask. Odds are good I'll get back to you immediately. ;)
[02:19] <awalton__> I have been a Debian-derivative user since Corel Linux, worked for a bit on the failed UserLinux project and now an Ubuntu user and evangelist since Warty. In the past six months I have been involved in Ubuntu development, working on the GNOME desktop, most specifically the Nautilus file manager, GVFS and GLib, and I do bug triage and patching on these components both upstream and downstream for Ubuntu. My real talent is i
[02:19] <awalton__> n writing code, but I try my best to be active in many other areas as well (occasionally in the Ubuntu forums where I try to get users to file bugs so we can track them, and often answering questions on IRC). I am also an active member of my local community group, the Ubuntu Kentucky LoCo, and the Bluegrass Linux User Group.
[02:19] <vorian> yikes :)
[02:19] <nixternal> rock on!
[02:19] <awalton__> My future plans for Ubuntu include joining the Ubuntu Desktop team and working on the future direction of the desktop, with issues such as FreeDesktop.org integration/migration and fixing long-standing user interface bugs being my immediate highest priorities. Maybe in a not-so-far-off future joining an Open Source company so that I can work on the software I love full-time.
[02:19] <nixternal> old school :)
[02:19] <awalton__> I had asked Sebastien Bacher to be here, but it's late in his timezone I believe. As such, I know at least a couple of members of my LoCo are here to cheer me on and mneptok can speak to my UbuntuGNOME-love if he wishes. Thank you for your time!
[02:20] <nixternal> ya, seb can't be here
[02:20] <nixternal> GNOME developer ey?
[02:20]  * mneptok is happy to confirm awalton__'s sustained contributions to GNOME
[02:20] <nixternal> chill vorian!
[02:20] <awalton__> there we so.. sorry about the chan-spam.
[02:20] <Technoviking> awalton__: looks like most of your work is upstream in Gnome?
[02:20] <nixternal> hehe
[02:20] <Technoviking> awalton__: Upstreams rock!!!!
[02:20] <mneptok> in fact, awalton__ was one of the first Ubuntu devs to get his ssh key replaced. or, rather, try to have it replaced. ;)
[02:20] <awalton__> Technoviking, somewhat so, but I fix a lot of problems that only come to my attention through Ubuntu.
[02:20] <nixternal> haha
[02:21] <cody-somerville> awalton__, what do you think of ref counting mechanism in glib?
[02:21] <awalton__> hehe, I try to be on the ball.
[02:21] <jcastro> gnomers rock!
[02:21] <jkeyes0> awalton__ would be an amazing addition to the ubuntu members. he has made some great contributions to Nautilus and GVFS, and is a valued member of BGLUG and the Kentucky ubuntu LoCo team
[02:21] <nixternal> jcastro: watch it!
[02:21] <vorian> hehe
[02:21] <mneptok> awalton__: like a trained chihuahua?
[02:21] <OgMaciel> oh noes! jcastro is not watching the game? :)
[02:21] <awalton__> cody-somerville, pretty happy with it. I've been a fan of generic reference counting over garbage collection for a long time though.
[02:21] <awalton__> mneptok, ;)
[02:21] <nixternal> OgMaciel: cuz he knows the Pengs are gonna win
[02:22] <awalton__> cody-somerville, my biggest problem with glib is the underabuse of properties in the code above it.
[02:22] <nixternal> PENGUINS ALWAYS WIN!
[02:22] <OgMaciel> nixternal: word!
[02:22]  * etank cheers for awalton__
[02:22] <etank> he is an active member in the KY LoCo team always available to help users
[02:22] <nosrednaekim> nixternal: are you always this disruptive in your own meetings?:P
[02:22] <OgMaciel> game 7 baby
[02:22] <nixternal> nosrednaekim: yes
[02:22] <awalton__> gobject has a lot of really interesting facilities that people won't exploit for some reason...
[02:22] <nixternal> wow, awalton__ you have some impressive pimps....I mean supporters
[02:22]  * Technoviking points and commands focus :)
[02:22] <mneptok> awalton__: "inertia"
[02:22] <nixternal> haha
[02:22] <doctormo> awalton__: except in python :-P
[02:22] <cody-somerville> awalton__, Do you feel there is a good landscape of static analysis tools available to developers to automatically detect unsinked refs?
[02:22] <nixternal> I don't
[02:23] <awalton__> cody-somerville, unfortunately I don't think there are.
[02:23] <nixternal> cody-somerville: was that a trick question btw? :)
[02:23] <awalton__> cody-somerville, I also dislike the floating-ref thing, but that's a whole other issue ;)
[02:23] <nixternal> awalton__: any plans on getting into packaging?
[02:24] <awalton__> nixternal, I do, I'm just not sure how to get started. I've been reading up on how to do it though, and I would love to become an active packager during the Intrepid cycle.
[02:24] <nixternal> rock!
[02:24] <cody-somerville> awalton__, Have you thought about getting involved with Xubuntu? :)
[02:24] <nixternal> how about your 5-a-day? (jcastro there you go with some pimpage, make sure you tell daniel :))
[02:24] <etank> nixternal: but he is a GNOME guy so dont hold that against him
[02:25] <nixternal> etank: to late
[02:25] <etank> dang
[02:25] <awalton__> cody-somerville, I use a lot of your guys code in some of my private work, so I very well might. I think what's good for XUbuntu is also good for Ubuntu and GNOME, so anywhere I can lend a hand, I will try.

[02:27] <nixternal> mneptok: introduce yourself please
[02:27] <cody-somerville> oops.
[02:27] <_MMA_> -1
[02:27] <mneptok> My name is Kurt and I'm a Gemini. I like long walks on the beach, snuggling, and sacrificing the unworthy to Cthulu, my dark master of the many tentacles. My hands are bloody, but my conscience is clean. They all deserved it.
[02:27] <_MMA_> :P
[02:27] <mneptok> I'm old and bitter, but I clean up nicely. I'm active in a lot of different aspects of the FLOSS world in general and Ubuntu specifically. Mostly because it does not require daily showering or pants.
[02:27] <nixternal> gahaha, I knew that was bound to happen!
[02:27] <ajmitch> oh no, not mneptok
[02:27] <mneptok> Most people around here know enough about me to know I have made significant contributions to Ubuntu and its community. These same people are familiar enough with me to want this all to be over quickly so they can drink enough to avoid the nightmares. With that, I place myself at your mercies ...
[02:27] <mneptok> In seriousness, I don't think I'm a stranger to most people here. And I expend no small amount of effort making that the case. I try to be a friendly, approachable face for Canonical on IRC and elsewhere in the community. I'm certainly a "people person," and getting me to stop working on free software is more a challenge than getting me to start.
[02:28] <mneptok> I also want to emphasize, in the strongest possible terms, that I base my candidacy entirely upon my contributions to the FLOSS community in general, and Ubuntu in particular. If my Canonical employee status is to factor into any decisions, I would prefer to withdraw my candidacy. This point is of paramount importance to me.
[02:28] <alexio44> o.O
[02:28] <ajmitch> not a stranger, just strange :)
[02:28] <jrib> understatement...
[02:28] <nixternal> I have know mneptok for to long, err for a while :)  nothing bad I can say at all and he has been a tremendous help in a ton of places
[02:28]  * mneptok presents a freshly polished halo
[02:28]  * ajmitch would certainly vouch for mneptok's longstanding contributions
[02:28] <nixternal> any nay sayers for mneptok?

[02:40]  * _MMA_ moved from P.G. County to Raleigh N.C. and misses D.C. every day. :(
[02:40] <cgregan> I am the owner of several projects

[02:41] <Technoviking> cgregan: sounds like Ibex will be exciting for Ubuntu Mobile
[02:41] <nixternal> Technoviking: you saw those screenshots? mmmm hawt!
[02:41] <cgregan> nixternal: No mobile outside of Canonical since my positions in proprietary comapnies on the west coast
[02:41] <Technoviking> nixternal: I want it now:)
[02:42] <nixternal> cgregan: any plans for a Mobile Kubuntu Edition? If not, what do I need to do in order to start something like that?
[02:42] <cgregan> I was a user and promoter of Ubuntu through my consulting...and it seemed like a good move
[02:42] <nixternal> I should have just asked the latter part of that question
[02:42] <cgregan> nixternal: Your best bet is to wait for our first release...we have plans to make it more community oriented after that
[02:42] <Technoviking> great karma

[02:48] <ZehRique> Hi all. My name is Henrique Paulino Machado, and I live in Jaboticabal, Sao Paulo, Brazil.
[02:48] <ZehRique> My wiki page is: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/HenriquePMachado
[02:48] <ZehRique> My profile on launchpad is at: https://edge.launchpad.net/~zehrique
[02:48] <ZehRique> I am contributor to the Brazilian Porguese Translation of Ubuntu's Gnome version and I'm talking with Marco Ferragina about his cGMail applet, to help him with some code. (His applet is excellent for me).
[02:48] <ZehRique> In my city, as I said on the wiki, I'm planning to attend to local Demo Days and InstallFests to help promoting Ubuntu and the free software.
[02:48] <ZehRique> When I have free time, I use to give support on the #ubuntu-br channel, here on freenode.
[02:48] <nixternal> chuckf: you are next, sorry I skipped you
[02:48] <chuckf> np
[02:48] <ZehRique> I was recently approved as a GNOME translator into the pt_BR branch too.
[02:48] <ZehRique> I am planning a small software with a friend, written in Python, to interact with some models of the DLINK ADSL modems, for helping users configure and get info on their device within the Gnome environment.
[02:49] <nixternal> anyone here to pimp ZehRique?
[02:49]  * Andre_Gondim suports ZehRique
[02:49]  * Pretto too
[02:49] <Technoviking> nixternal: that sounds wrong
[02:49] <nixternal> hehe
[02:50] <HardDisk> Technoviking disapproves!
[02:50] <HardDisk> don't hurt him now :)
[02:50] <nixternal> gahahahahaha, I just now looked at what I said...I meant support, honestly I did
[02:50] <hacktick> ^^
[02:50] <RoAkSoAx> lol
[02:51] <nixternal> ZehRique: are you guys involved with the 5-a-day stuff down there Brazil?
[02:51] <_MMA_> ZehRique: How much have you translated for GNOME? And how long have you been a part of that team?
[02:51] <ZehRique> nixternal, yes.
[02:51] <cody-somerville> ZehRique, So it appears that your translation efforts are rather recent
[02:52] <HardDisk> ZehRique, what exactly are you planning for the DLINK project?
[02:52] <ZehRique> _MMA_, i approval is recent on the GNOME team.
[02:52] <vorian> ZehRique: what are you doing for the gnome team?
[02:53] <ZehRique> HardDisk, I intend to do a sotware to control the modem from the GNOME Environment. Without using the browser.
[02:53] <HardDisk> ZehRique, how will that be better than using webui?
[02:53] <ZehRique> vorian, I am helping translating it into Brazilian Portuguese yet.
[02:54] <mneptok> ZehRique: you have not been approved for GNOME SVN access, though. or do you have a ticket waiting?
[02:54] <Andre_Gondim> ZehRique does good translations
[02:54] <ZehRique> HardDisk, well. I think if i put an icon on GNOME systray we could give instant access to some status.
[02:55] <HardDisk> ok thank you.
[02:55] <ZehRique> mneptok, I currently have no work at SVN.
[02:55] <mneptok> ZehRique: OK, just wanted to make sure you weren't waiting on a GNOME RT approval.
[02:56] <mneptok> ZehRique: in most cases you won;t get one. we try to keep a single maintainer per language
[02:56] <ZehRique> mneptok, I will be more active after the 2.24.0 startup

[02:56] <cody-somerville> ZehRique, it seems like you're off to a good start but I think we're looking for applicants to be more well rounded and have a longer period of sustained contribution.
[02:56] <ZehRique> cody-somerville, ok.
[02:57] <cody-somerville> If you'd like any help on further directions on how to do just that, feel free to contact any member of the board and we'll be sure to point you in the right direction.
[02:57] <nixternal> ZehRique: would you mind if we asked you to come back at a later time and give membership a shot again once you have a bit more contributions under your belt?
[02:57] <effie_jayx> ZehRique,  we think your inittial contributions are leading you to where its at, but we feel we need to see more sustanable contributions
[02:57] <vorian> ZehRique: yes, please continue with the great translation work
[02:57] <nixternal> ie. you are on the bug squad with a low bug karma, work that up and you will be good
[02:57] <nixternal> more translations would be wonderful as well
[02:57] <ZehRique> OK,1
[02:57] <ZehRique> ok!
[02:58] <effie_jayx> ZehRique,  a bit of more bug tackling ... should you need any help ping me :D
[02:58] <Technoviking> ZehRique: Please come back after you get some more work under your belt, it is a great start
[02:58] <mneptok> ZehRique: be sure to introduce yourself (if you haven't already) to OgMaciel and fatalerror on GIMPnet
[02:58] <cody-somerville> woot!
[02:58] <ZehRique> Technoviking, no problem. :)
[02:58] <Pretto> ZehRique, keep on working, you will get there

[03:06] <bodhi_zazen> Seriously though, I can see now my application is overdue and I apologize. I think of myself as low key (although not in a sig bar kind of way) and although I do promote Ubuntu I do not like to self promote (any way to hide post count? :lolflag:)
[03:06] <bodhi_zazen> It has been an honor to help with the forums, and before I forget, the Beginner Team ROCKS (you know who you are).
[03:06] <bodhi_zazen> So why now ? I started a LUG and would like to hand out bodhi.zazen Ubuntu cards ? More important, I hope any semblance of “leadership” I may carry can be used to encourage new (and not so new) users to become more involved with the community.
[03:06] <bodhi_zazen> I use an alias as I am a professional, and although it is not a secret, I do not want to advertise it either (nor allow the profession to divide the community).

[03:19] <nixternal> leftyb: your turn, sorry
[03:19] <leftyb> i'll try and be quick :)
[03:19] <doctormo> After this I can play Savage2!
[03:19] <leftyb> My name is Mike Rushton, also know as leftyfb. I reside in North Eastern Massachusetts and help run the MA LoCo team. I have been using an promoting linux and FOSS since the mid 90's. I have spent a lot of time and effort planning and making sure our installfests are fun and educational and go off without a hitch. I have made many contributions to our teams wiki, keeping the events and meetings in order as well as a few outsid

[03:19] <RoAkSoAx> nixternal, according to the wiki it's xander21c's turn xD
[03:19] <nixternal> leftyb: umm, where is your wiki page?
[03:19] <nixternal> RoAkSoAx: ya, but I typoed the topic
[03:19] <HardDisk> I know leftyb (Mike Rushton) from his unofficial support channel #ubuntu on efnet.  Being from Egypt, I have to say he has allowed me the opportunity to be part of his unofficial team and wish him a great future but hopefully as an official ubuntu member this time.

[03:20] <nixternal> sorry
[03:20] <leftyb> I keep ubuntu cd's on me at all times and take opportunities to explain ubuntu and how it can make people's computing lives easier and more enjoyable.

Most of my contributions revolve around spreading the word in my professional home consulting and through the teachings at the tech c
[03:20] <leftyb> enter. I'm very passionate about sharing ubuntu with the rest of the world and have many ideas and plans to promote it as much as possible.
[03:21] <leftyb> I don't actually have much else put into words ... i'm not the best with putting things down on paper as most others
[03:21] <jrib> I know leftyb from the MA loco.  He's one of the most active members.  Always keeps things together and is very helpful and friendly.
[03:21] <doctormo> I'd also like to say that leftyb helps me debug and test networking aspects of some of the projects I code.
[03:21] <nixternal> nice tattoo :)
[03:21] <leftyb> ;)
[03:21] <_MMA_> I'd *almost* give a +1 just for the tattoo. :P
[03:21] <nixternal> wow, good comments and supporters!
[03:22] <nixternal> you are the 2nd person I know with that tattoo
[03:22] <effie_jayx> nixternal,  indeed
[03:22] <doctormo> He's one of the most dedicated and passionate ubuntu supporters we have, who is fair and balanced as they come.
[03:22] <HardDisk> In addition to what I wrote, we've not just become good ubuntu colleagues, but friends, he's shown me some nice tips and tricks over the time I had known him.
[03:22] <leftyb> I help with projects here and there as much as I can even though i'm not a developer. Right now i'm helping with the carrier project (pidgin fork)
[03:22] <HardDisk> and I hope he comes visit me in Egypt one day :)
[03:22] <turk_Max> i have met leftyb a couple of times and found him to be a passionate ubuntu user, happy to discuss and help out
[03:23] <nixternal> so you are a LoCo freak I take it
[03:23] <yuriy> leftyb has been one of the most contributing members of the MA LoCo
[03:23] <nixternal> leftyb: if you get RMS on the team, definitely +1 :)
[03:23] <doctormo> Now I think he under plays his role at SETC, we go there, we teach but he also looks after all the refurbished computers, installing ubuntu and setting up peoples computers. they are then given to the poor through their scheme.
[03:23] <nixternal> oh man, you have yuriy on your side
[03:24] <_MMA_> leftyb: How long have you been part of the Mass LoCo? (sorry if I missed that)
[03:24] <leftyb> nixternal: verymuch so ... i'm actually interested in and have brought up bringing together our LoCo team, the NH team, local LUGs and other local FOSS groups to start a Boston open source conference ... it's a lot of work but I think we can pull it off :)

[03:34] <Alan_M> I am a member of the Ubuntu Forums beginner team, have been for about 1 year or so under bodhi_zazen's guidance.
[03:35] <Alan_M> My launchpad profile can be located at https://launchpad.net/~speeddemon8803 and my Wiki page can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Speeddemon8803.
[03:35] <nixternal> nice testimonials! I really like Old_Soldier's words!
[03:35] <jacob> Alan_M is an excellent candidate for membership. he's an excellent helper with bodhi.zazen on both irc and the forums.
[03:35] <nixternal> hehe, like how you got your nickname :)
[03:35] <bodhi_zazen> I support Alan_M 's membership
[03:35] <Alan_M> thanks :)
[03:35] <Old_Soldier> Alan is a solid member of out UCF team :)
[03:35] <Rocket2DMn> I didn't have a chance to write on Alan_M 's wiki.  I can vouch for his continued support in the UF community
[03:35] <bodhi_zazen> He has been an enormous asset to the team
[03:35] <nixternal> rock on!
[03:36] <Alan_M> I have helped users from all areas of the spectrum with aspects of Ubuntu, some major contributions, some just minor things.
[03:36] <nixternal> Alan_M: what do you think your future with Ubuntu and the community looks like? Any specific interests?
[03:36]  * pleia2 arrives
[03:36] <nixternal> \o/ pleia2 !!! :)
[03:36]  * nosrednaekim cheers for pleia2
[03:36] <nosrednaekim> !
[03:36] <Alan_M> Well, because I am a paraplegic, i really wish to get Ubuntu's accessability more noted, help out our physically impaired users :)
[03:37] <nixternal> rock on! that is something that needs some help definitely and any help you have to offer would be greatly appreciated!
[03:37] <Alan_M> I just love helping out, its what ive done for a long time, if im not here helping, im helping elsewhere spreading the love and joys of Linux.
[03:38] <Alan_M> Getting the misinformed a little more educated and stuff.
[03:38] <the-stace> Alan has helped tons of times and he's still helping when I need a hand or 2
[03:39] <Alan_M> I have helped with a script for Amarok called Sabre, it allows you to control your laptop/desktop's access with a bluetooth enabled device such as a cell phone.
[03:39] <vorian> Alan_M: what involement have you had with the LA LoCo team?
[03:39] <nixternal> haha, my buddy loves that script by the way, assuming it is the same script
[03:40] <Alan_M> vorian, well i attempted to be active in it, yet i had surgery and didnt get a chance to email anybody about that, so it was given to someone else (im really not too upset now about it though.)
[03:40] <Alan_M> nixternal, thats great! :D
[03:40] <effie_jayx> Alan_M, are you working in any accesibility projects upstream? gnome or kde accesibility teams?
[03:40] <vorian> Alan_M: what do you mean by "given" to someone else?
[03:41] <Technoviking> Alan_M: Looks like your still new to the beginneers team
[03:41] <Alan_M> well, vorian, i wasnt able to check my emails and stuff....inactivity made the team unstable, i wasnt around to adminstrate and do those kinds of duties.
[03:41] <Old_Soldier> Technoviking:   alan is a new user account he had it reset by the forum admins
[03:42] <_MMA_> Old_Soldier: That's odd. I didnt think that happened. Why the reset?
[03:42] <Technoviking> Old_Soldier: so he has more than 84 posts
[03:42] <Rocket2DMn> i think Alan_M was one of the early members of the beginners team
[03:42] <Alan_M> Technoviking, not much more, but just a little over this.
[03:43] <Rocket2DMn> bodhi_zazen, if you are around, can you please comment?
[03:43] <vorian> Alan_M: so naturally, you have been working with the LA team then, considering your interest in the team?
[03:43] <effie_jayx> Alan_M, are you working in any accesibility projects upstream? gnome or kde accesibility teams?
[03:44] <Alan_M> effie_jayx, no
[03:44] <bodhi_zazen> Alan_M, has been with the beginner team for just under a year
[03:44]  * vorian talks to himself
[03:44] <Alan_M> vorian, the beginners-team has been taking up a lot of my time.
[03:44] <nixternal> nothing new with that :)
[03:44] <bodhi_zazen> Keep in mind he has a medical condition
[03:44] <vorian> alrighty then
[03:44] <Alan_M> im sorry vorian, i didnt mean to look like i was ignoring you sir.
[03:45] <vorian> Alan_M: no need to call me sir :)
[03:45] <Alan_M> vorian, ok :)
[03:45] <nixternal> yes sir!

[03:51] <MootBot> New Topic:  Brandon Perry for Ubuntu Member
[03:51] <brandonperry> cool
[03:51] <nixternal> brandonperry: your turn :)
[03:51] <brandonperry> Alright, my name is Brandon Perry (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BrandonPerry), I am 19, and I have been the Dallas/Fort Worth LoCo Team Leader since mid-2007.
[03:51] <brandonperry> I am active on the Banshee, ClamAV, gbrainy, and Mono mailing lists and have written puzzles and translated for gbrainy. I also maintain a couple small projects, most notably the ClamAV LiveCD (based on Hardy, was Edgy).
[03:52] <brandonperry> Late last year, I started a project called OCAM, or One Computer A Month, where I donated at least one computer running Ubuntu to families who couldn't afford a new computer. It was powered purely by donations, which dried up after about 3 months, but during those months, I was able to donate 8 PC's. I still donate when I can.
[03:52] <brandonperry> I am the webmaster for http://www.texas-ubuntu.org, which is a site trying to bring together all other LoCo's in Texas, and has proved to be a bit more difficult than we imagined.
[03:52] <brandonperry> I am trying to introduce Edubuntu into the school systems around Dallas\Fort Worth and have donated a couple computers to teachers, whom love what it has to offer.
[03:52] <brandonperry> Like n0rman, my LP.net participation isn't high, but most of my time is spent on mailing lists, IRC, or IRL ;-).
[03:52] <brandonperry> Hopefully, next year, the D/FW Team will have a small booth at QuakeCon, giving out Ubuntu CD's and swag to computer geeks from around the world. I also hope that as we grow, or outreach to schools will grow as well.
[03:52] <brandonperry> that's it :-)
[03:52] <nixternal> brandonperry: will you do me a favor at QuakeCon?
[03:52] <brandonperry> maybe ? ;-)
[03:53] <mneptok> whoa! Brendan Perry! I LOVE DEAD CAN DANCE!
[03:53] <nixternal> smakc Kyle Bennet for me and tell him he still owes me big time!
[03:53] <brandonperry> haha, ok
[03:53] <nixternal> hey, with clamav, have you worked with Scott Kitterman (ScottK) at all?
[03:53] <brandonperry> no, I haven't
[03:54] <pleia2> how about sgran over in Debian?
[03:54] <brandonperry> a little with sgran
[03:54]  * pleia2 nods
[03:54] <brandonperry> ScottK isn't in IRC much
[03:54] <_MMA_> brandonperry: He sure is. ;)
[03:54] <nixternal> brandonperry: scottk lives on irc, I work with him for about 12 hours a day :)
[03:54] <effie_jayx> brandonperry,  he is a regular in #ubuntu-motu
[03:55] <_MMA_> And #ubuntu-devel
[03:55] <brandonperry> I haven't seen in him in #clamav
[03:55] <nixternal> and #kubuntu-devel :)
[03:55] <brandonperry> I don't frequent those channels :-)
[03:55] <nixternal> I believe scott maintains clamav in both Ubuntu and Debian
[03:55] <nixternal> anyone here to support brandonperry's application this evening?
[03:56] <ScottK> nixternal: I maintain it in Ubuntu and help out the Debian maintainer
[03:56] <brandonperry> haha, hello ScottK
[03:56] <nxvl> @schedule Lima
[03:56] <ScottK> hello brandonperry
[03:56] <pleia2> nixternal: sgran maintains debian
[03:56] <ScottK> He's looking for more help though.
[03:56] <nixternal> brandonperry: what exactly do you do for Ubuntu at this point in time?
[03:57] <brandonperry> Right now, I am the Ubuntu DFW team leader (not ubuntu software specfic)
[03:57] <nixternal> ahh, you are the leader
[03:57] <nixternal> that's right, I remember you now
[03:58] <nixternal> what is the current status of the LoCo team? been active much?
[03:58] <brandonperry> we have a meeting once a month
[03:58] <ScottK> brandonperry: Are you interested at all in helping out with clamav maintenance in Ubuntu or Debian?
[03:58] <vorian> brandonperry: how's the uniting of Texas going?
[03:58] <brandonperry> me, my brother, and another guy are passing out CD's at all the high schools since it is the last week
[03:58] <pleia2> cool
[03:58] <brandonperry> ScottK: I would love too, I didn't know it was a problem
[03:59] <nixternal> ahh, here we go, the Ubuntu Texas website...that's where you update everything :)
[03:59] <ScottK> brandonperry: There's a lot to do.
[03:59] <brandonperry> vorian: right now, the dallas and the houston teams are the really active ones
[03:59] <brandonperry> el paso is getting there
[03:59] <brandonperry> but with the size of texas, it is really difficult to cooridinate things
[03:59] <brandonperry> ScottK: definitely, should I talk to sgran?
[04:00] <vorian> yeah, very difficult it would seem
[04:00] <brandonperry> or you, even ?
[04:00] <nixternal> brandonperry: from the Texas website I see from you, "We try to get people to join the site, post on the blogs, etc... It is just difficult to get people to stay. :-/" - what do you find the most difficult with keeping people around?
[04:00] <ScottK> brandonperry: See https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-clamav and ping me on IRC if you can help.  New clamav release on Monday will no doubt bring us another wave of security patches to deal with.
[04:00] <nixternal> I founded the Ubuntu Chicago team, and our original 25 members are still super active, with about 100 coming and going due to being students
[04:01] <brandonperry> nixternal: people join the site from all over texas, but there aren't that many locos, so that just kind of join, then they have nothing to post about, no meetings or installfests to join in on
[04:01] <nixternal> ahh, ya I totally know what you are talking about
[04:01] <brandonperry> ScottK: will do ;-)
[04:03] <pleia2> brandonperry: you say education is an interest but you don't have time right now - do you anticipate having time in the future? perhaps working with the edubuntu team directly until you can get to a point were working with schools is feasible?
[04:03] <brandonperry> pleia2: now that it is summer, I can start talking to IT from the schools about maybe giving lectures or installing Ubuntu on some computers in the labs
[04:03] <brandonperry> during the school year, you are on the school's time, which doesn't work
[04:04] <brandonperry> but during the summer, the IT guys are pretty much free since they are setting things up for next year
[04:04]  * pleia2 nods
[04:05] <brandonperry> nixternal: Zelut and encryptz can vouch for me
[04:05] <brandonperry> they just couldn't make it tonight
[04:05] <ScottK> nixternal: BTW, it's Klamav that I maintain in both Ubuntu and Debian.
[04:06] <brandonperry> pleia2: in working with the edubuntu team, I have definitely thought about it
[04:06] <nixternal> clam, klam, its all the same to me these days :)
[04:06] <effie_jayx> nixternal, shhhh qt boy :D

[04:10] <hacktick> "my" comunity was in Berlin, I organized lots of meetings and events there.
[04:10] <Technoviking> hacktick: you live in Germany?
[04:10] <hacktick> since august I'm in brazil, where it's harder for me to organize meetings (I prefer reallife for talking with other ubuntu users) I'm looking forwards to get back to Berlin, although I like brazilian beaches ;)
[04:10] <nixternal> oh man, Daniel Holbach testified :)
[04:10] <nixternal> great testimonials
[04:11] <nixternal> oh man, Ubuntu Deutschland
[04:11] <nixternal> is there anything you all haven't done or don't do?
[04:11] <hacktick> he was the first other ubuntu user I got to know in real life
[04:11] <nixternal> and you are on the e.V., that says a lot
[04:11] <vorian> nifty wiki page

[04:12] <hacktick> i think sinc we moved from google groups. that was last summer
[04:12] <nixternal> hacktick: considering you know dholbach personally and he recommends you for membership, I would have expected major 5-a-day abuse from ya :)
[04:13] <effie_jayx> hacktick,  you have a quite balanced initial groundings... what do you hope to focus more in the future?
[04:13] <hacktick> sorry :)
[04:13] <hacktick> 5-a-day started after I left Berlin :)
[04:13] <effie_jayx> hacktick,  you have initial worki in bug nad translations
[04:13] <effie_jayx> hacktick,  no need to be in berlin to have dholbach on your case boy ;)
[04:13] <nixternal> ahh, you aren't in Berlin anymore...k, I was wondering the drastic change between ubuntu-de and ubuntu-brazil :)
[04:14] <hacktick> effie_jayx: i think will concetrate more on the official german LoCo
[04:14] <effie_jayx> hacktick, right. are you planing to go back to germany soon?
[04:14] <hacktick> effie_jayx: I just did these translation in free time, never have been in a team
[04:15] <effie_jayx> hacktick,  cool

[04:28] <nxvl> are the log uploaded somewhere
[04:28] <Seeker`> nxvl: Eventually
[04:28] <Seeker`> nxvl: Hopefully in the next day or so, the person hosting the bot is having problems with their webhost atm
[04:29] <nxvl> cause i wanted to read the log from last meeting
[04:29] <nxvl> (and these one too)
[04:30] <Seeker`> which is the "last meeting"?
[04:31] <Seeker`> nxvl: There are logs for the meetings elsewhere
[04:31] <Seeker`> !logs
[04:31] <Seeker`> I think they are updated at 1 minute past the hour
[04:32] <persia> Rather, they are updated somewhere between 5 minutes before and 12 minutes after (that I've seen) depending on the vagaries of cron, server load, etc.
[04:34] <hacktick> good night

[06:59] <Alan_M> Zic, ubottu's based on UTC right? (I mean its times its listing.)
[07:10] <Zic> Yes, but I have some troubles to remember the number of your to add to have the french clock :)
[07:10] <Zic> (+0200, +2h so)
[07:11] <Zic> troubles because of the GMT based clock
[07:11] <Alan_M> zic, yeah utc used to get me as well :D
[07:12] <Zic> s/your/hours/ sorry
[07:14] <Alan_M> yeah
[08:19] <Seveas> Alan_M, you can ask for a localized schedule
[08:20] <Seveas> '@scedule paris' gives paris times :)
[08:20] <Alan_M> yeah, i figured :)
[08:21] <Alan_M> well, now that my day has gone totally insane, i might go to bed.
[08:22]  * Alan_M will be back in here im sure for the next Membership approval board meeting for Americas.
[08:22] <Alan_M> nice talking to you again Seveas
[08:23] <Alan_M> if not talking, seeing :)
[08:23] <Seveas> :)
[08:43] <jsgotangco> @schedule manila
[13:18] <sbc> What is the procedure for reserving this channel for a meeting? More specifically the Marketing Team would like to use this channel on June 7 21.00 UTC
[13:21] <persia> sbc: The bot sets the topic based on the events listed on the fridge
[13:22] <bimberi> @schedule utc
[13:22] <bimberi> sbc: Looks like it's been done :)
[13:23] <sbc> bimberi: Nice :)
[13:23] <sbc> thank you both.
[13:23] <persia> sbc just be sure to always get it on the fridge.  Sometimes people forget, and there is a conflict.
[13:23] <sbc> persia: This should be enough, right: http://fridge.ubuntu.com/node/1503 ?
[13:24] <persia> sbc: That's exactly what you need.  Many teams have rotating meetings, at different times of day so everyone on the planet can meet.  To make this work, someone on the team needs to be sure to keep the fridge updated with the time for the next meetings.
[13:25] <persia> As some meetings are weekly, some fortnightly, and some monthly, there can be conflicts if people aren't careful.
[13:26] <sbc> ok - got that. Thanks again.

[13:54] <mvo> hi
[13:57] <pitti> hi
[13:57] <seb128> hey pitti
[13:59] <MacSlow> hi there folks
[13:59] <Keybuk> good afternoon
[14:00] <MacSlow> Keybuk, I hope it was the right spot on the wiki to put agenda items (GTK+-issue) to discuss (first time I ever did that)
[14:02] <Keybuk> as good as any other ;)
[14:02] <Keybuk> MacSlow: I also look for them in activity summaries
[14:02] <Keybuk> ok, I think we have everyone :p
[14:03] <ted2> I think we shouldn't let the platform team beat us, so we should spend the entire meeting discussing luggage ;)
[14:03] <MacSlow> ted2, oh :)
[14:04] <Keybuk> ted2: heh, well, when teacher's away - the boys play
[14:04] <ogra> :P
[14:04] <seb128> MacSlow: listing agenda items in your activity mail is usually better so people can reply or comment on the list too
[14:04]  * pitti confesses that he didn't manage to write up all specs, one is still left (guest account)
[14:04] <pitti> hardy kept me way too busy :/
[14:05]  * seb128 didn't write specs yet
[14:05] <pitti> well, today is the deadline
[14:05] <MacSlow> seb128, ah ok.. well I'll stick to that in the future
[14:05]  * MacSlow still has much spec write-up pending
[14:05] <seb128> pitti: ETOOMUCH, maintaining a stable and a unstable GNOME is just too much apparently :--
[14:05] <MacSlow> too
[14:05] <seb128> :-(
[14:05] <pitti> we clearly need seb256!
[14:05] <Keybuk> pitti: is it?
[14:06]  * MacSlow blames gtk+-widgets
[14:06] <pitti> Keybuk: that's what Steve's shiny release calendar says, anyway
[14:06] <Keybuk> ah, I hadn't even started reviewing them yet ;)  with mdz and Colin both away, I suspect it's a dead deadline
[14:06] <pitti> coincides with https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IntrepidReleaseSchedule
[14:06] <Keybuk> I was planning on suggesting specs should be reviewed next week
[14:07] <pitti> ok, *phew*; I'm relieved :)
[14:07] <seb128> GOOD ;-)
[14:07] <seb128> ups
[14:07] <seb128> good ;-)
[14:07] <pitti> so we have time until Tuesday or so to write them?
[14:07] <Keybuk> though I was going to quickly run down everyone's list today to make sure everyone knows which ones they're doing
[14:07] <pitti> right, that would be good
[14:07] <Keybuk> pitti: time until Thursday :)
[14:07] <MacSlow> *phew²*
[14:07] <seb128> good idea indeed
[14:08] <mvo> ++
[14:08] <Keybuk> ok, I didn't see any agenda items other than Mirco's, so let's cover his first
[14:08] <MacSlow> Ok
[14:08] <Keybuk> MacSlow: freeze of GTK+ 2.14 at end of june, GtkStatusIcon and RGBA-issues need to be addressed, otherwise new RGBA-theme for intrepid might not make it
[14:09] <MacSlow> so the issue is that for intrepid we would like to have a new GTK+-theme hopefully using RGBA-colormaps by default (e.g. murrine)... well as far as I know... but kwwii could probably give a more precise view on that
[14:09] <kwwii> yes, that is exactly what we planned
[14:10] <MacSlow> but before a GTK+-theme like that can be put in there are crashes with GtkStatusIcon to be fixed.
[14:10] <kwwii> the main problem seems to be with the status icon/system-tray
[14:10] <seb128> what is the issue there?
[14:10] <kwwii> I do not understand the technical issues with that, I just know that there are some :-)
[14:11] <MacSlow> seb128, BadMatch errors for system-tray because of the spec for embedding widget/windows in the panel
[14:11] <seb128> well, that seems to simply be code bugs no?
[14:11] <seb128> you have a whole cycle to write patches and get those accepted upstream ;-)
[14:11] <seb128> or is there a particular issue?
[14:11] <MacSlow> Ryan "desrt" Lortie wrote up an updated spec-proposal for exactely this issue to the xdg-list
[14:12] <seb128> that's a design issue then?
[14:12] <MacSlow> but there's no one implementing that patch right now
[14:12] <seb128> if you are looking for somebody to do the work I've way too much to do already
[14:12] <seb128> not sure what the question is actually
[14:13] <MacSlow> and gtk+-upstream is mainly ok with Ryan's proposal and just waiting for a patch against gtk+-upstream
[14:14] <MacSlow> since Ryan has not time (and gtk+-upstream is busy elsewhere) that leaves only one person "stupid" enough to volunteer for this
[14:14]  * MacSlow <-
[14:14] <seb128> ok, good, problem solved then? ;-)
[14:14] <seb128> or you wanted the team opinion on something there?
[14:15] <MacSlow> but this is not on my list of high-prio tasks and I'm not very experienced with that intrinsic gtk+-hacking... so I feel it'll be very difficult for me to do this.
[14:15] <kwwii> I brought it up because we need to decide whether we can do this or not for 8.10
[14:16] <MacSlow> I still have much to do for the face-browser considereing the wanted changes from UDS-Prague.
[14:16] <seb128> Keybuk: hey boss, we need to hire desrt ;-)
[14:16] <Keybuk> sounds to me like if we want to do an RGBA theme, we need this patch
[14:16] <MacSlow> on the other hand I know we want that new theme and Cimi can't do it either afaik
[14:16] <Keybuk> seb128: he's not hireable until September AIUI?
[14:17] <MacSlow> seb128, oh yes... Keybuk Ryan would be a wickedly cool hire!
[14:17] <kwwii> Keybuk: right, he is finishing his studies
[14:17] <Keybuk> which would be too late for intrepid anyway
[14:17] <Nafallo> sounds like prioritys needs to be set :-)
[14:17] <kwwii> right
[14:17]  * Nafallo lurks :-P
[14:17] <Keybuk> MacSlow: it sounds like you're the best person to own the patch
[14:17] <Keybuk> either you can do it
[14:17] <seb128> Keybuk: I think he said he could hurry if he had some motivation to do so, but probably yes
[14:17] <Keybuk> or you know who can - and can suggest them to me for a short term contract
[14:17] <Keybuk> :p
[14:17] <MacSlow> Keybuk, it's you're call... I'm sorry I cannot give any estimates how long that gtk+-stuff is going to take me.
[14:18] <kwwii> MacSlow: do you know anyone else who could work on this?
[14:18] <MacSlow> Keybuk, I only know Ryan as a perfect match... otherwise people like Owen Tayler (RedHat) :) or one of the folks from Imendio
[14:19] <Keybuk> MacSlow: could you talk to Ryan?
[14:19] <seb128> I doubt owen is looking for something to do ;-)
[14:19] <MacSlow> Keybuk, I can try to ask around my contacts at Imendio to see if they have some short-term hireable man-power left over, ok?
[14:19] <Keybuk> sure
[14:19] <Keybuk> you can have an ACTION for that then :p
[14:19] <MacSlow> Keybuk, but can talk to Ryan again.
[14:20] <MacSlow> Keybuk, sure go ahead
[14:20] <Keybuk> in terms of priorities, did anyone talk to Mark about the RGBA theme? :p
[14:20] <MacSlow> Keybuk, not yet :/
[14:20] <kwwii> Keybuk: no, I was planning on showing him two screenshots
[14:20] <MacSlow> Keybuk, I can do that too
[14:20] <MacSlow> Keybuk, after all I'm the "bling guy"
[14:20] <kwwii> that should make the decision easier
[14:21] <Keybuk> indeed
[14:21] <Keybuk> ok
[14:21] <Keybuk> let's move on them
[14:21] <Keybuk> Specs!
[14:21] <kwwii> MacSlow: if you need help with any pics for that let me know
[14:21] <Keybuk> I'm going to run down the list of discussions at UDS, person-by-person
[14:21] <MacSlow> kwwii, Keybuk: I'll CC you tow for those emails so you know what's going on, alright?
[14:22] <Keybuk> this is the list of people I think are going to write up the discussion in one or more specs
[14:22] <Keybuk> (split up as you feel necessary)
[14:22] <Keybuk> if you didn't think you were going to write it up, or someone else thinks they are, please shout
[14:22] <Keybuk> and if you've already got a spec drafted (or at least a spec registered), let me know what the name is
[14:22] <Keybuk> by next week, I'd like to have them proposed for the intrepid release, and in the Review state (assumedly with me as the approver)

[14:24] <pitti> Keybuk: I don't have notes for the system prefs
[14:24] <pitti> (dev-perms is in review0
[14:25] <Keybuk> ok, did anyone get notes for that one? (mpt I guess?)
[14:26] <MacSlow> don't have those
[14:26] <Keybuk> pitti: also for you I have
[14:26] <pitti> hm, I'm pretty sure that we appointed a note taker for all the sessions
[14:26] <Keybuk> 	gdm-guest-login
[14:26] <Keybuk> 	intrepid-device-permissions
[14:26] <Keybuk> 	consolidate-spell-checkers (assigned to: seb128)
[14:26] <Keybuk> 	kernel-abi-package-handling (assigned to: ?, no approver)
[14:26] <pitti> Keybuk: the latter three are in review, gdm-guest-login needs to be written (ENOTIME)
[14:27] <Keybuk> ok great
[14:27] <pitti> https://blueprints.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/printerdriverautodownload will be 50% mine as well, since it need sjockey support
[14:27]  * pitti kicks the space one step to the right
[14:27] <Keybuk> pitti: I don't suppose it's possible to extract the "jockey support" bit of that spec out into a separate spec?
[14:27] <pitti> Keybuk: oh, it is possible; can do
[14:28] <Keybuk> makes it easier to track
[14:28] <pitti> I'll name it jockey-printerdriver-support
[14:28] <pitti> added to TODO list
[14:29] <Keybuk> thanks
[14:29] <Keybuk> mvo: were you going to write up the notes for the PackageKit sessions?
[14:29] <mvo> Keybuk: yes, I can do that, also glatzor and james_w have started that already
[14:29] <Keybuk> ok, great
[14:30] <mvo> but I will ensure it gets done by next week
[14:30] <Keybuk> MacSlow: for you I have
[14:30] <Keybuk> 	Spit and Polish
[14:30] <Keybuk> 	Client Drawn Decorations
[14:30] <MacSlow> correct
[14:30] <MacSlow> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopTeam/Specs/ClientDrawnDecorations https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopTeam/Specs/SpitAndPolish
[14:30] <pitti> Keybuk: https://blueprints.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/jockey-printer-driver-support
[14:30] <Keybuk> MacSlow: are they registered in Launchpad?
[14:31] <mvo> MacSlow: what is client-drawn-decorations? the window manager thing?
[14:31] <MacSlow> Keybuk, ClientDrawnDecorations is a more general thing _not_ intended to land for Intrepid... very much upstream stuff, but the whole issue needs exposure therefore a spec on its own
[14:31] <MacSlow> mvo, yes
