JaffaGood afternoon everyone to the September sprint meeting15:31
X-Fadehi15:31
JaffaHmm. Time discrepancy between my box and watch/phone/laptop15:31
JimiDinihi :)15:31
andre__ahoj.15:31
jeremiahThis sprint meeting came awfully abruptly. ;]15:31
danielwilmshello15:31
bergiehi all15:32
jeremiahhi bergie15:32
Jaffajeremiah: *Advertising* came abruptly; however each sprint meeting is the first Tuesday of the month at 13:30 UTC ;-)15:32
JaffaAnd it was advertised in the minutes of the last meeting; but these are excuses - sorry.15:32
jeremiahJaffa: Yes, but I had forgotten that fact. :[15:32
Jaffajeremiah: Sorry :)15:32
jeremiahNot your fault, you shouldn't have to remind us. :P15:32
JaffaFortunately, since this is the last meeting before the next council election -it'll be the last one I'm chairing. So thank you to everyone in advance, and thanks for all your help & support over the past 6 months.15:32
jeremiahJaffa: Are you not running for the next council?15:33
Jaffajeremiah: Probably not.15:33
jeremiah:(15:33
VDVsxbahh15:33
Jaffata :)15:33
jeremiahIts a lotta work I imagine. 15:34
VDVsxJaffa, I promise beers in Amsterdam :)15:34
zerojayNo doubt.15:34
jeremiahw00t!15:34
JaffaAnyway, today's agenda is the same thing we do every time: quick overview of any outstanding MUSTs/SHOULDs and anything interesting about the completed ones; then committments for the next 4 weeks and AOB.15:34
JaffaVDVsx: I'll hold you to that :)15:34
jeremiahRight.15:34
dnearyhi all15:35
Jaffa1) REVIEW OF LAST SPRINT15:35
Jaffahttp://wiki.maemo.org/Maemo.org_Sprints/August_09#Tasks15:35
Jaffahi dneary :)15:35
JaffaThanks everyone for the last minute push on statuses, btw. We're getting much better about it :)15:35
sopihello15:35
JaffaSo, starting at the top - 9.08-01: sopi?15:36
sopiyes. got no time to start it and i did not want to rush in the last minute.15:36
sopiso let's push it to Sept. it takes only a day, max.15:36
JaffaOK.15:36
sopii am sorry for that.15:36
JaffaHowever, 9.08-02 and 9.08-03 complete :-)15:38
JaffaAnything to add?15:38
jeremiahYeah, I got a lot more karma now!15:38
jeremiah:)15:38
sopiKarma points are calculated nicely, although the forum where the mails are shown is buggy.15:38
Jaffajeremiah: Woohoo :)15:38
sopii think we can fix the forum later, it was not super important how the threads rendered there..15:39
JaffaIf we do it again, I'd like to see us somehow use a staging db so there isn't a handful of days where the karma can't be trusted. Dunno about the logistics - this is me being all PHBey :)15:39
Jaffasopi: Agreed.15:39
sopiJaffa: planning of the new server farm is just on its way15:39
sopiwe will have more servers, and more power.15:40
sopiso yes, next time we can do it wiser.15:40
Jaffasopi: cool15:40
JaffaAnything else on karma?15:40
JaffaIf not, we'll move on to X-Fade15:40
X-FadeBasic functionally is in place, blocking on extras-testing qa definition and more people with Maemo5 to actually test the apps.15:40
JaffaX-Fade: What's your main focus atm?15:41
JaffaIs it the promotion scripts from -devel -> -testing?15:41
X-FadeThere are a few things I want to do as separate tasks, but the basic interface seems to be working.15:41
X-FadeJaffa: promotion devel->testing seems to be working ok.15:41
X-FadeThe part I can't really test is testing->extras as we don't have everything discussed yet.15:42
VDVsxmany kudos to X-fade for the package interface :)15:42
JaffaX-Fade: If the basic UI is working; should 9.06-05 be closed?15:42
X-FadeYeah, if we take the remaining things as separate tasks, you can.15:42
JaffaX-Fade: up to you as much as anyone; but separate discrete tasks good15:43
X-FadeJaffa: I'll be working on it this month a lot, so administration doesn't matter for me. As long as it gets done.15:43
JaffaX-Fade: if it's all or nothing this month, then it doesn't matter. If there's any possibility bits might slip - or it's not clear when it's "done", we should have separate tasks.15:45
X-FadeJaffa: Yeah, just close it and I'll create a list of new tasks.15:45
X-FadeJaffa: Working more than 40 hours a week on this alone, won't be off my mind anyway ;)15:46
JaffaX-Fade: Cool15:47
Jaffajeremiah: 9.08-04 - minimae (must): 90%15:47
jeremiahI need to find a better way to hook in the minimae script to the incoming packages.15:48
jeremiahThe tests are all there in Maemian, but maemian is like lintian15:48
jeremiahdesigned to be run by the developer15:48
jeremiahminimae is meant to run over the newly built package and check stuff15:48
jeremiahBut since there is a lag between upload and build15:48
jeremiahmy inotify script has to sleep15:49
X-Fadejeremiah: I have a hook in the autobuilder for that.15:49
jeremiahSo after discussing this a bit with ed15:49
JaffaAh. So this is similar to the problem Ed Bartosh, Marius & Graham Cobb have been discussing about multi-package builds.15:49
Jaffa(on -devel)15:49
jeremiahX-Fade: Yeah, he basically said to use that15:49
JaffaRight :)15:49
X-Fadejeremiah: One that runs just before the build and one that runs after the build results come back.15:49
jeremiahJaffa: Yes.15:49
jeremiahX-Fade: Where is the second one?15:49
jeremiahI should use that.15:49
jeremiahIt also turns out that ed is doing some testsing too15:50
X-Fadejeremiah: Let's discuss that after the meeting ;)15:50
jeremiahso maybe co-ordinate15:50
jeremiahX-Fade: Okay. :)15:50
JaffaCool. So carry over to Sept, or a separate task for managing the link? Sounds like it's the same task really.15:50
jeremiahJaffa: It is the same task really, but the code is mostly written15:51
jeremiahIt just needs to find the right time to run15:51
Jaffajeremiah: Cool; I suggest carrying it over?15:51
jeremiahYes please.15:51
JaffaTa.15:51
jeremiahI would like to add a "could" or "should" and that is built a mirror of the repos on tessting15:51
jeremiahThough I doubt I'll get to it. :/15:52
* Jaffa nods; we'll get to that shortly :)15:52
jeremiahWant to prepare my presentation as well this month15:52
jeremiahoh sorry.15:52
JaffaJimiDini: 9.06-07: app karma (must): 90%15:52
JaffaSaw the formula and test data on the mailing list. Looks good.15:52
JaffaIf it's just a case of getting feedback on the formula; suggest you give another prod now there's more data and if there aren't any major objections - progressing with it.15:53
JaffaJimiDini seems to be AWOL.15:53
JimiDiniJaffa: My formula is actually already implemented in code (not online yet).15:53
JaffaAh. Bingo.15:53
JaffaCool.15:53
JimiDiniIt is possible to tweak it now or later.15:54
JimiDiniI am going to move formula online, so everyone can see how it looks in reality and we can change it later15:54
JaffaJimiDini: Agreed15:54
JaffaJimiDini: Is that a 5 minute job, and the task therefore closable?15:55
JimiDiniAnd if everyone likes it, it's just a question of putting new URL somewhere on front-page :)15:55
X-FadeI will change the 'HOT' block to list apps based on karma then.15:55
JaffaAnd we can see how it feels.15:55
JaffaSounds like a plan.15:55
JimiDinithat is more like 15-minutes, but, yes, I guess we can close it15:55
Jaffadanielwilms: 9.07-01 SSO (must): 60%15:56
JaffaSeems to be lingering, this one.15:56
danielwilmsups...sorry, forgot to update15:56
danielwilmssingle sign on and out are done...now the api for the user-info has to be implemented15:57
bergiewhich is a separate task :-)15:57
bergieor at least should be15:57
danielwilmshave to talk to alexey next week one day to get the things together15:58
danielwilmsyep15:58
bergieI'll be working on that with danielwilms and JimiDini15:58
danielwilmsbergie: good15:58
danielwilmsbergie: should be for sep15:58
JimiDiniyup. we'll do it in september15:58
dnearyfyi, I have to scoot in an hour15:58
danielwilmsthat's it from my side ;)15:59
JaffaCool16:01
Jaffaqgil isn't around - but has given an update on 9.08-06 (summit budget)16:01
Jaffa0% is a bit harsh, since the sponsorship budget's firmed up at least16:01
Jaffatimsamoff is in Stuttgart, but 9.08-08 is an ongoing task into September16:01
JaffaVDVsx: 9.08-09 Summit buzz (must): 100% - anything to add?16:02
VDVsxdone for this month, I intend to continue with the task in the next sprint16:02
JaffaCool16:02
JaffaMoving on to outstanding SHOULDs16:02
Jaffaqgil's 9.08-10 - carrying over (QA process).16:03
VDVsxok, thanks16:03

JaffaNeed a hand/testers/palm it off/carry it over?16:03
andre__was working on it, but then spent lots of time on Fremantle stuff (discussing, reproduce a bug and run into 3 new issues ;-) , some other stuff, lately testing 3rd party apps)...16:04
andre__later on this month I want testers, yes16:04
-!- tekojo [n=tero@a91-154-122-100.elisa-laajakaista.fi] has joined #maemo-meeting16:04
andre__make it a MUST please. I want to get this off the list :)16:04
* Jaffa hasn't done anything on 9.08-11 (documenting & communicating packages interface)16:05
JaffaHappy to carry it over, unless anyone else wants it and/or has comments?16:06
JaffaStskeeps' 9.06-09 (vendor h/w repos) - presumably carrying over.16:06
Jaffasopi: Want to carry over 9.08-12? (could)16:07
Jaffajeremiah: Want to carry over 9.04-08? (could)16:07
jeremiahWell, if it is useful to people, otherwise, maybe not16:08
sopiyes, i will complete it in Sept.16:08
jeremiahITP and package adoption is really useful in debian since it provides a vector to get involved.16:09
Jaffajeremiah: I'd guess it may be more useful with Fremantle? But the packages stuff/minimae etc. being more useful16:09
jeremiahBut I don't hear a lot of people clamoring for a way to do "intent to pacakge" bugs16:09
jeremiahYeah, we can keep it. It is not hard to finish and I can blog about it, you may be right taht it is useful for fremantle16:09
JaffaOK, cool16:11
Jaffa2) NEW TASKS16:11
JaffaNew tasks to be committed to by everyone?16:11
X-Fade- Push Packaging Policy updates (Must)16:11
X-Fade- Add source packages and repositories to interface (Should)16:11
X-Fade- Add extra info fields from control files to interface (Could)16:11
X-Fade- Put Maemo 5 section for Downloads online (When first package enters Extras) (Should)16:11
JaffaX-Fade gets the prize for most organised :)16:12
jeremiahI would like to add a "could" and that is built a mirror of the repos on testing16:12
bergieJaffa: did you already write down the account sync API?16:12
dneary1. Run council election (MUST)16:12
Jaffabergie: not really - having them below the title above would be handy16:12
dneary2. Finalise community days in Summit (me, VDVsx and baloo) (MUST)16:12
danielwilmsimplementing sync-API endpoint for garage (could)16:12
sopi- participating in the server migration planning (this activity is led by tekojo)16:12
jeremiah- participating in the server migration planning (this activity is led by tekojo)16:13
dneary3. Documentation issues - I will need some guidance on priorities for Fremantle16:13
dnearyI will have some at least SHOULD stuff there16:13
X-Fadedneary: Can I suggest: 'Document Extras testing/QA process' and related items?16:13
dnearyUnfortunately, library.maemo.org again moves to the month after16:13
dnearyX-Fade: You can certainly suggest16:13
X-Fadedneary: But will you take it? :)16:13
dnearyX-Fade: I prefer when documentation is written by people who know what they're talking about though :)16:14
dnearyWhich would make it a job for you or Jeremiah, and I would certainly help editing & reviewing the document afterwards16:14
X-Fadedneary: Nice opportunity for you to find out how everything works :)16:14
JaffaX-Fade: I could keep 9.08-11 (which seems to cover the start of that), and hand it over to dneary to improve?16:16
JaffaNot having to editorialise my own content so much would be refreshing :)16:16
dnearyX-Fade: Only increases the likelihood I won't get it done this month16:16
X-FadeJaffa: Sure.16:16
JaffaOK, I'll keep it and make it a MUST16:18
dnearyI will be reviewing a lot of outstanding documentation bugs this month before the official release of fremantle documentation16:18
dnearyI don't want to overcommit & under-deliver16:18
JaffaAgreed16:19
JaffaSo, our high-level items for the end of this sprint would be:16:19
Jaffa* Packages being usable (and used) for Fremantle testing by people with devices in hand16:20
Jaffa* Some automatic checks to prevent duff packages getting into -testing16:20
Jaffa* SSO: accounts sync API between various systems16:20
Jaffa* Published documentation on server upgrades16:21
Jaffa* Council election16:21
Jaffa* Community days of summit finalised16:21

jeremiahCapacity planning for fremantle?16:22
Jaffa* Capacity planning for Fremantle :)16:23

tekojowas the server moce taken into account?16:24
Jaffa"into account"?16:24

jeremiahtekojo: Yeah, we're calling that capacity planning.16:24
tekojoX-Fade ok, thanks16:24
sopitekojo: i also mentioned as a task for me.16:24

jeremiahwhoohoo16:26

glezosJaffa: oh, sorry. I'm Dimitris Glezos, lead developer of Transifex.16:40
glezosJaffa: I saw your reply on a forum thread about our efforts re-engineer our L10n workflow and infrastructure16:41
glezoshere's the relevant task: http://wiki.maemo.org/Task:Evaluate_Transifex16:41
glezosWe're planning on providing the community with all the tools needed to efficiently ship Harmattan (and next releases, of course) in as many languages as possible16:43
-!- danielwilms [n=dwilms@147.243.155.42] has left #maemo-meeting []16:45
glezosJaffa: I'll set up a plan with zerojay on the above page with rationale on what we're planning on doing, and hopefully at the Summit we'll get a chance to host a BoF to talk about our proposed L10n roadmap16:48
Jaffaglezos: Ah, I see - yeah. Cool.16:50
Jaffaglezos: Cool16:50
glezosJaffa: Is a particular member of the Council leading the Summit sponsorship decisions? I'd like to apply for consideration, if that wouldn't be a problem.16:52
glezosThis is because I think the Summit would be an excellent opportunity to discuss in detail with our translators (both external and internal) and decide our strategy and roadmap.16:54
glezosGeneralAntilles, in case this interests you too ^^16:56
Jaffaglezos: We're doing it as a group. I *think* you already applied17:05
JaffaI can't remember what the majority vote decision was (we're prioritising people who are talking and long-standing contributors who are still making contributions)17:05
glezosJaffa: ah, excellent. Let me know if you need any other information then!17:06
