timsamoff"Texts for maemo.nokia.com"15:35
qgilah, the texts15:35
qgilI need to empty 20% of my head and then concentrate on that until it's done15:36
qgilwhile getting help improving that15:36
timsamoffIf there are specific areas where I can help, let me know.15:36
qgilbefore I can start, little help apart from nagging me (appreciated, really)15:36
timsamoffOk.15:36
qgilthanks15:36
qgilI saw you edits btw15:36
timsamoffYes,15:37
timsamoff.15:37
qoleBTW, what IS maemo.nokia.com?15:38
GeneralAntillesOK, guess ferenc1 isn't quite with us.15:38
GeneralAntillesbergie, Maemo brainstorm?15:38
ferenc1i am15:38
GeneralAntillesAh, ok then, hold that bergie15:38
GeneralAntillesferenc1, git for Garage progress?15:38
qgilqole: the future of http://nokia.com/os2008 once Maemo 5 is launched15:38
bergieroger15:38
ferenc19.04-01 : the script is working from command line, we tested it with the modest repo (quite big)15:39
dnearyThe orange links on the tomato background ... eugh...15:39
qoleqgil: Thanks, people keep talking about it, but it doesn't resolve in my browser...15:39
ferenc1BUT there is  no UI.15:39
ferenc1I will complete the UI part in May  and then we can enable that for "subversion" based projects.15:39
ferenc19.04-02: the gitweb UI is not skinned, so that is the only outstanding task form that 15:40
timsamoffqole: Ask qgil to go kick Jussi. ;)15:40
ferenc1that's all about my two tasks. question please?15:40
GeneralAntillesferenc1, OK, carry both tasks over to May and add a UI task, then?15:40
ferenc1GeneralAntilles: yes15:41
GeneralAntillesExcellent. OK, bergie, Maemo brainstorm?15:41
bergieyep15:41
GeneralAntillesOr, I guess that's NetBlade15:41
bergieso... the app is done, and was in testing in internal this week15:42
bergietoday it was installed on live server15:42
NetBladeGeneralAntilles: well, actually both of us15:42
bergieand now the plan is to "soft launch it"15:42
GeneralAntilles(dneary, this screen resolution is killing me ;))15:42
bergiemeaning that the app is available, but we first tell about it (and give perms) to some chosen people15:42
X-FadeWe need to discuss the brainstorm workflow. Maybe in a separate meeting.15:42
bergieas now the big question is the process related to it... who shall be moderators etc15:42
dnearyGeneralAntilles: disk I/O of the Ubuntu upgrade is killing me15:43
bergiemoderators being the people who deal with http://wiki.maemo.org/Task:Maemo_brainstorm#Workflow15:43
dnearybergie: I'd like to help with the social aspects of how the brainstorm will work15:43
GeneralAntillesX-Fade, that sounds like a good plan. Do we want to try to schedule something for next week sometime? Hammer out workflow, style and layout details, staff, etc?15:43
bergiedneary: yep, that is the big part we need to do now15:43
dnearybergie: I guess we need a list of concrete deliverables15:44
tekojoGeneralAntilles: can we take the moderators discussion right now?15:44
dneary& people :)15:44
bergieGeneralAntilles: I think styling should be pretty OK now, so this is more about deciding and testing the workflow15:44
-!- mikkov_ [n=mtvartia@vipunen.hut.fi] has joined #maemo-meeting15:44
timsamoffGeneralAntilles: +1 on within the next week.15:44
-!- StsN800 [n=user@212088073001.static.sonofon.dk] has quit [Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer)]15:44
bergieof course, there may be some bug fixing or finetuning during may, but that we can handle via Bugzilla as normal :-)15:44
qgiljussi & me need to be involved in that workflow to make it fit with Nokia's workflow15:44
X-FadeYeah, let's do a separate meeting.15:44
GeneralAntillestekojo, I'd rather take the whole thing once we have a better idea of the workflow etc.15:44
GeneralAntillesMost of us haven't really seen the brainstorm.15:45
X-FadeThen we can also explain how everything works and iron out the problems.15:45
GeneralAntillesSomebody ping the list to set up a time for that next week, then.15:45
tekojoGeneralAntilles: ok15:45
bergieGeneralAntilles: the URL isn't hard to guess, but there is still no content there (and perms need to be set ;-)15:45
dnearySo - what are the tasks? Do I have any of them?15:45
bergieok, so we need a meeting to discuss the moderators, workflow and launch communications15:46
GeneralAntillesUm, deploy, figure out the workflow, and decide on moderators?15:46
GeneralAntillesqgil, do you want to pick up the workflow?15:46
NetBladeas soon as someone gives me some perms to the live site, I'll add some real ideas there15:46
dnearyThis may be a silly question, but it never stopped me before...15:47
bergiethe workflow inside the app itself is described on the wiki page, but the question is how people deal with that15:47
dnearyWhy do we need to spend time working out the workflow?15:47
timsamoffdneary & X-Fade: Should we think about Brinastorm being one of the main nav options? Or put it in the Community section?15:47
dnearyAren't we just copying Ideastorm, which we know works?15:47
bergietimsamoff: there is no space in main nav :-(15:47
GeneralAntillesdneary, apparently Quim and Jussi need to be involved to make it fit with Nokia's workflow. ;)15:47
X-Fadedneary: Yeah, but it is how we handle ideas that needs to fit us and Nokia.15:47
bergiedneary: yes, and the workflow is the same. But who are the moderators etc15:47
timsamoffbergie: I know. It's a big deal, though... Or, is it?15:48
dnearybergie: Yes, I agree that's something to figure out15:48
X-Fadetimsamoff: Let's just test it first and worry about placing later ;)15:48
bergietimsamoff: with the newstyle it is15:48
dnearyAnd not just who they are, but guidelines for moderation15:48
dnearyThat's the task I want to help with15:48
dneary(take ownership of, even)15:48
timsamoffbergie: No, I mean the "functionality" not the difficulty of adding it.15:48
GeneralAntillesOK, dneary, assigning the moderation task for you, then.15:48
bergieI'll create a "Brainstorm moderators" group now, and will add people there as qgil sees fit :-)15:48
timsamoffbergie: But we can discuss more later.15:48
qolebah, none of the "easy to guess" URLs are working for me...15:49
dnearyGeneralAntilles: OK - but nothing to do with analysing the workflow, please :)15:49
GeneralAntillesLet's leave the rest off for the meeting next week.15:49
qgilGeneralAntilles: I'm not talking about requirements or complexity to that workflow15:49
dnearymaemo.org/brainstorm doesn't work15:49
tekojoqole hint, it has community and brainstorm in it15:49
qgilit's just that it makes sense to be involved so we can see where our product managers and whoever fit best15:49
GeneralAntillesqgil, OK.15:49
qoletekojo, yep that did it15:50
GeneralAntillesbergie, are you OK for owning the deployment for May?15:50
bergieGeneralAntilles: deployment is done, the human aspects of the launch are not15:50
qgiltekojo: thanks, cool  :)15:50
GeneralAntillesWe'll leave Dave's moderators as the only task on that, then.15:51
X-FadeWe also need somebody to write a howto document.15:51
X-FadeOr at least some user documentation.15:51
* timsamoff as a robot feels slighted.15:51
GeneralAntillesDocs I can do, I'll take that.15:51
NetBladeX-Fade: I'm planning to make a couple screencasts after everything is accepted15:51
GeneralAntillesAlright, then, moving on. bergie, 9.04-07: karma for applications?15:51
X-FadeGeneralAntilles: And what people can expect when creating an idea.15:52
dnearyX-Fade: I guess the docmaster can take that on - but I'd like not to have to do it all on my own15:52
bergieGeneralAntilles: ok...15:52
X-Fadedneary: Go ahead ;)15:52
dnearyAnd I'd like a more precise charter for what needs to go in there15:52
dneary:)15:52
bergiewe had two separate tasks for app karma: planning it, and implementing it15:52
timsamoffdneary: I can help as always.15:52
bergiesince Hirvinen isn't with us any longer we couldn't do both of them15:52
dnearytimsamoff: Thanks :)15:52
bergieapp karma plan was updated by me (and X-Fade), so that should be fine15:53
dnearyI'm also going to be looking for help off the person who implemented brainstorm15:53
X-FadeThe implementation details for app karma have been hased out.15:53
dnearybergie: Was that Hirvinen?15:53
bergiebut implementation will have to be in May sprint15:53
X-FadeSo implementation can go ahead now.15:53
GeneralAntillesAlright, sounds good.15:53
GeneralAntillesbergie, you want to own the implementation?15:53
bergieyep15:53
NetBladedneary: it was me15:53
dnearyNetBlade: OK - and you're Lauris? No - that's Neithan15:54
NetBladedneary: I'm Oskari15:54
dnearyOK15:54
GeneralAntillesOK, X-Fade, remaining layout and style implementations on maemo.org? I'm planning on picking up MXR and Bugzilla.15:54
dnearyThanks15:54
X-FadePut me down for lists.15:55
X-Fadeand promoter.15:55
GeneralAntillesOK15:55
X-FadeNemein is going to do garage? 15:55
NetBladedneary: If you have some questions, ask on monday, 'cos I'm on sickleave until today and tomorrow15:55
bergieX-Fade: I think we & ferenc1 will do garage15:56
dnearyNetBlade: Tomorrow is a public holiday in France15:56
dnearyWe're going walking in the countryside15:56
dnearyNo email15:56
GeneralAntillesbergie, which of you wants to own it?15:56
NetBladedneary: aah, ok, well that works just fine15:56
bergiedneary: tomorrow is Midgard's 10th anniversary so we will all be wasted anyway ;-)15:56
X-FadeGeneralAntilles: So we have everything covered?15:56
dnearyAnd I'm running a marathon this weekend (my first! Wish me luck everyone)15:56
qgilI think Garage should be changed only at a header footer, level, nothing else. not worth15:56
bergieGeneralAntilles: Ferenc I think15:56
dnearySo it'll be Monday, at the earliest15:56
GeneralAntillesX-Fade, yeah, looks like it.15:56
NetBladedneary: yep15:57
GeneralAntillesbergie, OK.15:57
ferenc1GeneralAntilles: yes, i can take care of the garage skin.15:57
tekojoI second qgil on the minimal facelift for garage15:57
ferenc1 qgil: i agree 15:57
dnearyqgil: I agree with yoyu15:57
ferenc1:)15:58
GeneralAntillesAnything more than that sounds like you're likely to end up killing yourself with gforge.15:58
timsamoffAll in agreement! Wow. Warm and fussy.15:58
dnearyHeader, footer & primary colour scheme (background, link colours, headers)15:58
dnearyIs Neithan still available for some tweaks on the new style?15:58
timsamoffs/fussy/fuzy15:58
bergiedneary: yes, he returns tomorrow from holidays15:58
ferenc1GeneralAntilles: GForge is not that evil, one just has to get a bit friendly to it ;)15:59
bergieFYI: brainstorm moderation privs given to qgil, x-fade and netblade15:59
GeneralAntillesOK then, jeremiah_, 9.03-02: Maemian?15:59
qgilthx bergie15:59
jeremiah_GeneralAntilles: Well, maemian sources from Nokia have been received.16:00
NetBladeI'll add today those ideas andre mailed me16:00
jeremiah_They need to be integrated into the debian branch and put out in garage.16:00
jeremiah_I need to do some test running of maemian before it is useful.16:00
jeremiah_Right now it is really debian centric.16:01
GeneralAntillesCarry over to May, then?16:01
jeremiah_Yes please.16:01
X-FadeI propose backlog16:01
GeneralAntillesX-Fade, backlog?16:01
X-FadeLet's try to commit only to things we are certain to complete.16:01
bergiedneary has moderation privs too16:01
X-Fadethis sprint16:01
GeneralAntillesOK, jeremiah_, are you good with that?16:02
dnearybergie?16:02
dnearymoderation of what?16:02
bergiedneary: for brainstorm :-)16:02
dnearyah16:02
dnearyyes16:02
jeremiah_GeneralAntilles: Yes - there is no way I will be able to finish maemian by May.16:02
qgilI really suggest we stick to 1 must, 1 should and 1 could max16:02
GeneralAntillesOK, backlog it is then.16:02
jeremiah_So backlog is fine.16:02
dnearyI also expect to be spending time on the summit as soon as we have dates and a venue16:02
jeremiah_qgil: That is fine with me.16:02
dnearyAnd I have a "could" in mind16:03
GeneralAntilles9.03-03, then, update canonical list of external repos16:03
X-Fadejeremiah_: Can I suggest setting a minimal form of QA for extras for this sprint?16:03
dnearyWhich I honestly don't expect to get done, so we could even not mention it16:03
jeremiah_X-Fade: Yes. 16:03
X-Fadejeremiah_: Then I will add that as my target too ;)16:03
X-Fadejeremiah_: And MUST in this case..16:03
jeremiah_I will set that as a must: Minimal QA test16:03
X-FadeGreat, let's hope we can hack a bit on the meeting too.16:04
GeneralAntillesX-Fade/jeremiah_, noted.16:04
jeremiah_X-Fade: Cool, you mean in Copenhagen?16:04
X-Fadejeremiah_: yep16:04
jeremiah_That would be great16:04
qgiljeremiah_: it would be definitely good to have some kind of jump from -devel to -tsting in place for the Danish Weekend16:04
jeremiah_qgil: I will set that as my target then16:04
qgilar right after the Danish Weekend  ;)16:04
jeremiah_I think it is definitely doable.16:05
X-Fadeqgil: I'll cook up a plan together with Jeremiah. So we do some actual work ;)16:05
jeremiah_BTW, has everyone or anyone looked at http://test.maemo.org/cgi-bin/search.cgi ?16:05
jeremiah_An rough prototype of a package search ^^16:05
GeneralAntillesNo, but looks like a nice start16:06
andre__i took a quick look on it16:06
timsamoffjeremiah_: Works nicely.16:06
GeneralAntillespackages.maemo.org will be a big help16:06
GeneralAntillesCan finally kill gronmayer once and for all.16:06
andre__good for a start, will file feature requests later ;-)16:06
jeremiah_I think people want a more debian like packages page, but their internal code is often undocumented16:06
jeremiah_And a bit of an overkill16:06
jeremiah_So maybe we can build this out ourselves?16:07
jeremiah_Perhaps it isn't a priority right now, but soon?16:07
qgiljeremiah_: something functional, light and easy to deploy is enough for now imo16:07
jeremiah_qgil: I totally agree.16:07
GeneralAntillesMake it simple to start with and pretty to look at.16:07
X-Fadeyeah, adding some links and basic info should be enough.16:07
qgilbut otoh if it's not urgently needed we can wait16:07
qgilsince perhaps Maemo one day....16:07
jeremiah_  . . . 16:08
bergiejeremiah_: should that pull some info from maemo Downloads too?16:08
jeremiah_bergie: Probably. :)16:08
GeneralAntillesI'd prefer to see the QA in place before we worry about the search.16:08
X-FadeAgreed16:08
GeneralAntillesOK, jeremiah_, 9.03-03: external reposistories list?16:08
jeremiah_Right now it is just limited to diablo binary-armel :)16:08
jeremiah_GeneralAntilles: Yeah, I just wanted to mention that search was possible and that we can do it realatively easily.16:08
jeremiah_But I will keep QA as my number one focus in May.16:09
qolejeremiah, diablo binary-armel free?16:09
jeremiah_qole: Indeed. :)16:09
jeremiah_qole: You know your repos.16:09
qolejeremiah, no I know my own package :-)16:09
GeneralAntillesjeremiah_, I know YOU know, just stating my logic for not trying to get anything committed. :P16:09
jeremiah_GeneralAntilles: Cool. :) Just trying to be explicit.16:10
GeneralAntillesAnyway, 9.03-03?16:10
jeremiah_Yes!16:11
jeremiah_That's me!16:11
jeremiah_Okay, I have taken a look at this and updated the list a bit16:11
jeremiah_It needs more work.16:12
GeneralAntillesThis kind of seems like an ongoing task to me.16:12
jeremiah_GeneralAntilles: Indeed, requires reading lots of talk.m.o pages16:12
GeneralAntillesWe haven't had many (any?) real repo openings in the past few months, but as they pop up they'll need to be added.16:12
GeneralAntillesDo we want to backlog it?16:12
GeneralAntillesIt's nice to have a complete list, but isn't really a Must sort of thing.16:13
X-FadeLet's clean up the tasks.16:13
jeremiah_GeneralAntilles: Up to you - I am kind of ambivalent toward trying to reduce16:13
X-FadeLong running tasks should be backlogged.16:13
jeremiah_external repos16:13
GeneralAntillesBacklog it is.16:13
jeremiah_I think good QA will make maemo the default place16:13
jeremiah_for packages16:13
GeneralAntillesOK, then, 9.03-04, contacting outstanding owners?16:13
jeremiah_GeneralAntilles: I contacted a couple, got a good response, contacted a couple others, got no response16:14
jeremiah_I note that qole has opened a repo - but I think he has a good reason16:14
jeremiah_Since his blobs are rather large.16:14
GeneralAntillesAbout how many are left to be contacted?16:14
jeremiah_GeneralAntilles: More than 50%16:14
GeneralAntillesOK, we'll carry this one over, then.16:15
jeremiah_okay16:15
GeneralAntillesLet's get a list together and I can help emailing16:15
X-Fadejeremiah_: Yeah, but he has a debian repo. Not maemo compatible.16:15
qolejeremiah_, I am also collecting binary-only packages posted only to t.m.o16:15
jeremiah_Ah okay.16:15
GeneralAntillesqole, if you could try to make sure all those people are directed towards Extras and whatever issues they have with Extras are known about by the team. . . .16:16
jeremiah_I think it is totally cool to have external repos, we just need to make maemo.org _THE_ place for good packages16:16
jeremiah_Which I think it is already becoming.16:16
GeneralAntillesOK, then, 9.04-08 Propose ITP process/workflow?16:16
jeremiah_I have a URL for that.16:16
jeremiah_Just a short sketch: http://wiki.maemo.org/ITP16:17
GeneralAntillesDo we want to carry this one over to May, then?16:17
jeremiah_I am not sure if we want to do this via email on garage or what?16:17
qoleGeneralAntilles, of course. I don't like external repositories any more than you do, but sometimes there's just nowhere else for "miscellaneous" stuff to go16:17
jeremiah_GeneralAntilles: Yeah, happy to carry over to May.16:17
jeremiah_But the proposal is done, now we need to reach consensus and implement.16:18
GeneralAntilles9.04-10, port packages from Diablo -> Fremantle?16:18
dnearyjeremiah_: Just making sure you know you can push tasks you don't think will get finished during the month to backlog, or ongoing16:18
GeneralAntillesjeremiah_, OK, changing task title to reflect that.16:18
qolejeremiah, will we also be getting the RFP as well?16:18
jeremiah_dneary: Yeah, so far, so good. 16:18
dnearyOK How many are you signed up to for May?16:19
GeneralAntillesI'm not sure I "get" 9.04-10?16:19
jeremiah_The package porting is one of those that is a huge task on the other hand.16:19
timsamoffjeremiah_: +1 on using garage for ITP16:19
GeneralAntillesdneary, 3 so far.16:19
jeremiah_qole: I thought we might as well.16:19
jeremiah_Since the two seem to go together well.16:19
jeremiah_And we can find out what kind of stuff people want.16:19
qolejeremiah_, that's really wonderful. I will begin using it as soon as it becomes available.16:19
ferenc1ITP: we can introduce a new group role: "package maintainer", so when you want to join a project you can choose this role..16:20
ferenc1the project admin will see the intent clearly. it is a 2 minutes job, roughly ;)16:20
jeremiah_GeneralAntilles: When someone uploads a new version of a package, the old version is kept.16:20
jeremiah_So we have lots of packages with lots of versions.16:20
jeremiah_This slows down the experience for the user in the AM16:21
jeremiah_I elminated about 1/3 (or over 6 gigs) of packages from the repos.16:21
jeremiah_Saving space and hopefully improving performance16:21
jeremiah_on the tablet when browsing packages.16:21
GeneralAntillesOh hell, duplicate task IDs.16:22
GeneralAntillesx316:22
GeneralAntillesYeah, the CLEANUP I get, I'm not sure on the "Port packages from diablo -> fremantle" though.16:22
GeneralAntillesThis sort of sounds like a backlog task based on the title.16:22
jeremiah_heh16:22
GeneralAntillesAre these just random Extras packages, or?16:22
X-FadeThe idea was to have an automated test run.16:22
GeneralAntillesAaaaaah16:23
GeneralAntillesThat makes sense.16:23
X-FadeLike we did for chinook->diablo16:23
jeremiah_Yeah, test to see if they build16:23
GeneralAntillesWell, is it something we can fit in May?16:23
jeremiah_It is rather complicated though.16:23
X-FadeJeremah has scripts for it.16:23
jeremiah_I am hesitant, seeing as I don't want to over-commit and under delivery16:23
GeneralAntillesOK, I'll mark it as a Could for May, then?16:23
jeremiah_which I feel I sorta did in April16:23
GeneralAntillesIt'd be nice to give app devs as much of a headstart as we can, but the QA stuff takes precedence.16:24
X-FadeYeah, could or MAYBEIFTHEREISABITOFTMELEFT.16:24
jeremiah_But I know that people want this done and X-Fade feels its important16:24
jeremiah_X-Fade: I think that might be the best option.16:24
mikkov_if it's not done in May it's probably not needed at all16:24
jeremiah_So no backlog, but maybe 'could'16:24
GeneralAntillesWell, that makes 4, slightly over committed but it's not the end of the world.16:24
jeremiah_mikkov_: Yeah, are things being done behind the scenes which might obviate its need?16:25
jeremiah_The last could should probably be 'unlikely'16:25
X-FadeI think we can do a run where we at least add all libs, so porting is easier for people.16:25
jeremiah_X-Fade: We have a build order already16:25
jeremiah_Or a proposed build order.16:25
qoleGeneralAntilles: I've got about 10 mins left, anything I need to comment on? (sorry to disrupt order of meeting)16:25
mikkov_jeremiah: packager are porting packages all the time and there isn't much left soon16:26
GeneralAntillesYeah, we'll do that, jeremiah_, hold on your last task and I'm going to jump ahead to qole.16:26
jeremiah_mikkov_: Ah, okay.16:26
GeneralAntilles. . . who is 100% on both tasks.16:26
jeremiah_GeneralAntilles: Right!16:26
GeneralAntillesqole, any outstanding comments you want to add?16:26
GeneralAntillesor anything you want to commit for May?16:27
qoleI'd like to keep working on Alternative Desktops and add a page about Emulators / VMs16:27
qoleI've also committed to qgil to do a Alternatives sticky for t.m.o16:27
GeneralAntillesOK, "Finish up Alternate desktops page", "Created page for Emulators and VMs" and "Alternatives sticky for Talk" ?16:28
qoleSure, anyone else want to burden me? ;-)16:28
penguinbaitI told Quim I would be glad to help qole with the Sticky threads, if you can give me some direction as to what you are doing16:28
penguinbaitqole contact me if I can be of help16:28
qolepenguinbait, sure, there's a thread in t.m.o16:29
GeneralAntillesOK, thanks, qole!16:29
GeneralAntillesjeremiah_, back to you, Diagnose autobuilder issues?16:29
GeneralAntillesThis really sounds like a backlog task to me.16:29
jeremiah_Yes, it is.16:30
jeremiah_I should not have added it. :(16:30
X-FadeI think this is not a problem? If if ever was?16:30
GeneralAntillesSomething that can just be worked on from Bugzilla, really.16:30
GeneralAntillesBacklogging, anyway.16:30
jeremiah_X-Fade: I have a note about it at home, we can take it up in Bugzilla.16:30
X-Fadejeremiah_: Yeah, if it is broken, it is a bug ;)16:30
GeneralAntillesAlright, danielwilms, 9.04-09: Setup SSO testing environment?16:31
jeremiah_X-Fade: I won't say broken, but there is something I wanted to mention.16:31
danielwilmsi'm on the way to it16:31
danielwilmscas server is running16:31
danielwilmswiki on the way to be integrated16:31
bergiedanielwilms: we've booked some time for the SSO testing stuff this month16:31
GeneralAntillesOK, carry it over to May then?16:31
danielwilmsit is already for may16:32
GeneralAntillesAh, see that.16:32
X-FadeSharp ;)16:32
* GeneralAntilles isn't used to Jaffa's new system.16:32
danielwilmssorry have to update the wiki page with the status16:32
GeneralAntillesAlright, sounds fine to me.16:32
GeneralAntillesandre__, 9.02-01, List Maemo Bugzilla patches?16:32
qgildanielwilms: forgot to tell you that this morning I took the liberty to create http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=2880016:33
andre__in progress, but things take longer than expected. :-/ Currently probably 30-40% completed (uhm, looks like my wikipage update got lost in the wifi trouble I had yesterday).16:33
andre__Bugzilla/Config.pm, Bugzilla/User.pm and contrib/bugzilla.procmailrc contain some stuff I don't get, going to ping Ferenc and Karsten later this month who should have more clue. :)16:33
qgilsince people were asking again and again16:33
andre__My aim for this sprint: SHOULD have a *complete* diff that can be applied to a vanilla Bugzilla 3.4. COULD: Have a 3.4 test installation on test.maemo.org by the end of the sprint (3.4 should be released this month)16:33
GeneralAntillesOooh16:33
danielwilmsqgil: saw that...it was good :)16:33
GeneralAntillesSounds tasty.16:33
jeremiah_andre__: Those are perl files! w00t!16:33
GeneralAntillesandre__, I kinda want to poke around at layouts a bit, but was waiting for 3.416:33
andre__GeneralAntilles, please don't wait16:34
GeneralAntillesAlright, we'll carry it over as a should. Gotta have andre__ doing something this month. :P16:34
andre__heh :)16:34
GeneralAntillesandre__, layouts for improvements, not Newstyle.16:34
andre__Apart from that, at the bugfront: Got a few nice SDK beta reports in the last two weeks, but mostly by just two or three persons. No idea if either Fremantle SDK is bug-free or people are just too lazy to file tickets... Hence a call again to everybody now that I have the hardcore maemo.org folks around here: Spread the word, tell people (on mailing lists, in forums) to file tickets (Fremantle stuff definitely prefered, we all know that Diablo d16:34
andre__oesn't get that much attention by Nokia anymore)16:34
danielwilmsbergie: lets discuss tomorrow a bit how to go on with the testing16:34
bergiedanielwilms: yep... we'll be in Ruoholahti at 2pm16:35
GeneralAntillesAlright, that wraps of last month's review (whew!).16:35
jeremiah_bergie: I wish I could be there, but it is looking unlikely.16:35
andre__jeremiah_, yeah, i don't speak every language on this planet :-P16:35
jeremiah_andre__: :P16:35
andre__(unfortunately)16:36
bergiejeremiah_: do your best :-)16:36
GeneralAntillesAnything anybody wants to pick up from the backlog? http://wiki.maemo.org/Maemo.org_backlog16:36
jeremiah_bergie: Will do. :)16:36
bergieGeneralAntilles: "app catalog feeds" will be somewhat related to app karma, but now the task is a bit vague16:36
ferenc1GA: Task:Using garage.maemo.org16:36
GeneralAntillesbergie, we may want to look at Talk/Downloads integration at some point in the future, but most of that task is invalidated by Talk.16:37
GeneralAntillesWe should probably drop it from the backlog and regroup later.16:37
GeneralAntillesferenc1, OK.16:37
bergie+116:37
timsamoffAgreed. maemo.org as a whole should take care of that.16:38
reggie_itT+116:38
GeneralAntillesAlright, not much on the proposals, page, but: http://wiki.maemo.org/Maemo.org_proposals16:38
qgilGeneralAntilles: so I think my tasks are: MUST sign off summit venue 9.03-01 - SHOULD maemo.nokia.com texts 8.11-01 and COULD... did I get the moderation task or not bergie (and what is that exactly?)  :)16:38
dnearyIn the backlog, I see "Plan for brainstorm" - isn't that DONE?16:38
GeneralAntillesqgil, dneary picked up the moderators task for Brainstorm.16:39
GeneralAntillesdneary, that is is.16:39
qgilperfect16:39
GeneralAntillesWe can drop that, then.16:39
GeneralAntillesqgil, noted on the rest.16:39
qgilSingleSignOn appears in proposals16:39
dnearyPlus, I guess "Organise Maemo Summit" will be a new ongoing task with lots of sub-tasks which I'll start taking on this month16:40
GeneralAntillesSSO should be coming together better once the testing is done this month.16:40
dnearyOnce we have confirmed site & dates16:40
GeneralAntillesdanielwilms, can you take a look at http://wiki.maemo.org/SingleSignOn and make sure the SSO pages across the wiki are unified?16:40
danielwilmsGeneralAntilles: yep will do that16:40
GeneralAntillesAlright, then onto the HIGH bugs http://tinyurl.com/4ujq5516:41
GeneralAntilles4437 slipped in there untriaged16:41
GeneralAntilleshttp://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=443716:41
qgildneary: you could anyway define the summit related tasks to be done at proposals - bootstrap the thing. This could be a nice task for this sprint16:42
qgildneary: we can start with those tasks anyway if needed16:42
dnearyqgil: Indeed16:42
dnearyThere's a lot to do16:42
dnearyDid you build up a checklist from last year?16:42
qgildneary: and start committing and moving to backlog in the next sprint, if there are things that need to be completed during May16:42
GeneralAntillesNobody on the team has committed to doing a dark theme, so 4437 should go down to Medium.16:42
dnearySplit into facilities, communication, events, sponsorship16:42
jeremiah_Hackers: check16:42
jeremiah_Wifi: check16:42
timsamoffdneary & qgil: Shouldn't this be started into the next Maemo Summit wiki page?16:43
dnearyGeneralAntilles: Commit me to the task "Break down summit organisation into subtasks" for the month16:43
GeneralAntillesdneary, roger.16:43
bergiehttps://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2179 is app karma16:43
qgiltimsamoff: sure, wherever fits best16:43
dnearyGeneralAntilles: No, Dave16:43
dnearyMe16:43
GeneralAntillesI'm sorry, Dave, I can't do that, Dave.16:44
* timsamoff giggles.16:44
X-FadeI will probably be do #4323 next week.16:44
X-Fade-be16:44
GeneralAntillesOK, no more moves on the HIGH bugs, how about MEDIUM? http://tinyurl.com/547kot16:45
qgilproposing urgency for https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=448116:45
qgilI really believe it will save us a lot of time discussing and re-discussing16:45
X-FadeWell, the CSS is in svn.16:46
X-FadeAnybody with a bit of CSS knowledge can help us out there.16:46
GeneralAntillesThink can figure out https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4455 this month?16:46
qgilX-Fade: fair enough16:46
GeneralAntilless/can/anybody can/16:46
qgilX-Fade: so someone should be able to propose something with that css and downaloading a couple of maemo.org pages, is that right?16:47
GeneralAntillesThis really needs to be broken out into several bugs: https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=441916:47
qgilX-Fade: do you mind posting the URL of the css file in the bug? I will ask for help in tmo16:47
X-Fadeqgil: They can just edit the css in their own browser and directly see the result.16:47
X-FadeWith firebug plugin for example.16:47
-!- qole [n=qole@d207-6-250-238.bchsia.telus.net] has quit ["Leaving"]16:48
timsamoffX-Fade: https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4481 is a request for a global change, though, not specific user cases. Shouldn't it just be addressed? (I'm a little confused.)16:48
X-Fadetimsamoff: Well go ahead?16:48
-!- danielwilms [n=dwilms@147.243.155.42] has quit [Remote closed the connection]16:48
X-FadeIt is just css?16:48
GeneralAntillesHehe16:48
timsamoffRight, but... Are all users expected ti fix their own bugs>16:49
timsamoff*to16:49
timsamoff?16:49
GeneralAntillesWell, somebody propose a good color.16:49
qgilyes, X-Fade is overbusy and proposing an alternative css can be done by many others16:49
X-Fadetimsamoff: No, but I don't have time for it atm.16:49
GeneralAntillesand then the color can be implemented.16:49
dnearytimsamoff: Yes - isn't that what free software's all about?16:49
qgilonce we have agreed on the one we like, we ask him to upload it and problem solved16:49
X-Fadetimsamoff: I want to move on. This is low knowledge work.16:49
-!- danielwilms [n=dwilms@147.243.155.42] has joined #maemo-meeting16:49
timsamoffOk. Just wondering...16:49
dnearyqgil: In fact, I discovered FireBug through X-Fade16:50
GeneralAntillesAlright, that should wrap it up for MEDIUM bugs.16:50
GeneralAntillesAny other business?16:50
reggie_itTI did change thr light orange at Talk to a darker orange16:50
GeneralAntillesreggie_itT, stick the hex in #448116:50
qgilx-fade I just need the url of the css (ignorant me) and I will go to tmo asking for help, there are plenty of people with web skills, apparently16:50
dnearyPerhaps we could use a wiki page: "how to help out with the website" which documents the various tools, explains a little big how Midgard works & where to change what files to make a site-wide style change?16:50
reggie_itTand the font issue, here's a link: http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p=284265&postcount=18216:50
X-Fadeqgil: Posting to the bug now16:50
qgilthanks!16:50
GeneralAntillesdneary, I had to find Karsten to find the Bugzilla SVN, so, yes, that's definitely a good idea. ;)16:51
qgilhttps://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4419 can stay as it is in medium, really16:51
dnearyGeneralAntilles: Where is the Bugzilla SVN?16:51
qgillet's look at it again once maemo.nokia.com and Forum Nokia have done their homework16:51
jeremiah_dneary: That is a good idea I think16:52
dnearyGeneralAntilles: OK - creating a bug so it doesn't get dropped16:52
GeneralAntillesdneary: garage.maemo.org/<bugzillza>/<svn>/<somethinglikethis>16:52
ferenc1about bugzilla svn: search the mails, it has been on garage for years.16:52
ferenc1and it was communicated, i am sure.16:52
GeneralAntillesferenc1, I searched, I couldn't find it.16:52
andre__GeneralAntilles, hmm, but is that complicated? :)16:52
dnearyferenc1: This is a problem with mailing lists & old projects16:52
dnearyI see it in GNOME16:52
GeneralAntillesIt's there, and I'm sure it's been mentioned, but I couldn't find it.16:52
GeneralAntillesSay what you will about me, but I'm usually pretty good about digging stuff up. ;)16:52
dnearyThere is gathered wisdom from years of email archives that is just not read by newcomers16:52
dnearyThat's why we have FAQs16:52
GeneralAntilles^16:53
andre__https://garage.maemo.org/projects/bugs/16:53
X-Fadeqgil: https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4481#c216:53
GeneralAntillesWe'd likely get more help on the website if the barrier to entry is a little lower.16:53
GeneralAntillesNo big deal, we'll just put together a wiki page sometime.16:53
GeneralAntillesEasy peasy.16:53
GeneralAntillesAnyway, I think that about wraps it up?16:53
qgilX-Fade: lovely16:53
X-FadeThe idea of having the website styling in svn is that people can help out ;)16:53
X-Fadereggie_itT for instance, changed his own links on the site.16:54
X-FadeThat worked great ;)16:54
tekojoI need to go, bye!16:54
GeneralAntillesOK, I think that about wraps it up. Thanks, everybody! Apologies for running long (apparently I got rusty ;))e16:54
jeremiah_Bye!16:54
