Henrik Omma (heno)

• Approved: access-gdm, braille-support, color-filters, common-at-conf, orca-laptop-support

feisty-speakup -- Depends on involvement from the speakup community. The next week or so will tell.

• Abandoned: atspi-testing-by-default -- seb128 had issues with this and I see his point.

Martin Pitt (pitti)

Done:

• lots of package merges
• spec reviews, discussions, and approvals; my own (assignee/drafter) feisty specs are all approved; I approved most of the specs I'm approver for, except:
  • simple-x-mode-selection: still in drafting, pinged rodarvus yesterday
  • scalable-installation-testing: was approved this morning with our original design; mdz had a different idea which got discussed shortly this morning, but which requires more intrusive changes in ubiquity, the db design, and other components, so I set it back to discussion for now
  • ltsp-local-apps: utterly complex and a quick discussion with cjwatson revealed that this needs much more thought (this one is not marked for feisty)
• cleanup-audio-jumble: tested pulseaudio and attempted to create the mentioned (in spec) patch to not hog the audio device; this failed due to the principal design of pulse; upstream works on a cleaner and more generic solution, but this will not be ready for feisty; since I do not want to break compatibility with commercial OSS apps and the multiuser case

, I did not continue working on this for now

• zero-configuration-networking:
  • did the required changes to base-files, avahi-autoipd, avahi, libnss-mdns, and ifupdown, so that the stuff works OOTB now when using dhclient
  • filed bug for zeroconf package removal
  • still missing: fix network-manager to not clobber the avahi-autoipd address (so that .local name resolution works with n-m), teach network-admin about the new ifupdown method (not that urgent, though, most people will not use the new /e/n/interfaces method and just rely on n-m or dhclient), and seed avahi-autoipd to ubuntu-desktop (after herd freeze)
• apport-improvements: got apport bits in for intercepting Python crashes, discussed a battle plan for Mono with slomo

• two OpenWeek talks

• started discussion and coding for automated package tests (mainly to improve QA of security updates so far, but this topic seems to grow and grow)

Todo:

• finish zero-configuration-networking implementation
• fix feisty's and edgy's gnome-system-tools authentication problem
• change dapper's and edgy's ~/.xsession-errors rotation handling to new plan
• dive into bug triage
• look into other specs as time permits

Simon Law (sfllaw)

Done:

• Taught two classes for UbuntuOpenWeek

• Verified many StableReleaseUpdates

• Bug triage
• Decided on two interns for the Montreal office
• scalable-installation-testing spec is drafted

To do:

• Interview more interns on Friday
• Start getting thin clients for interns

• Write documentation on Wiki about Ubuntu QA and TestPlans/TestCases.

Blocked:

• synaptic SRU is waiting in the edgy-proposed NEW queue

Specs:

• bug-reporting-tool (Approved)
• scalable-installation-testing (Discussion)
  • We should probably implement some form of scalable-installation-testing, even if it isn't sufficiently general. The Testing/Current wiki page must die.
