Your assistance in testing is always appreciated! <jibel> any question/comment about SRUs ? <ameetp> going once... <ameetp> twice... <cr3> zope-ldapuserfolder, crazy stuff! I'll have to check it out <marjo> ameetp: way to crack the meeting whip! <cr3> whip it, whip it good <ameetp> alright. jibel thank you!! <pedro_> lol <ameetp> [Topic] Bug Day status -- pedro_ <Mootbot-UK> New Topic: Bug Day status -- pedro_ <pedro_> Hola, so last Thursday we had a bug day for Apt which was organized with help of charlie-tca <pedro_> the participation was good, 99 bugs were triaged that day <pedro_> Thanks a lot to our rocking contributors: kamusin, charlie-tca, vish, adam-collard, devildante, ris and yofel <pedro_> per the action item of previous meeting we ran a bug day for upgrades yesterday <pedro_> but looks like we didn't have a lot of participation <pedro_> not sure why, jibel do you have any thoughts on that? <jibel> because it was organized on a tuesday ? <ara> I guess upgrade bugs are a bit harder to triage? <charlie-tca> +1 <ara> jibel, wouldn't you like to organize a session on how to triage upgrade bugs next ubuntu dev week? <pedro_> yeah i think you're both right <pedro_> ara, that'd be awesome to have, jibel please please please ? <jibel> ara, I think you are right. but the u-m bugs only needed to be confirmed or reproduced <charlie-tca> I think many think of doing installs to reproduce an "upgrade" <ara> jibel, but, how do you reproduce a bug that might involve having a strange combination of packages? * ara is talking without knowing much, just to start the conversation <pedro_> charlie-tca, yeah but i thought we were going to have more participation due that the previous was about apt which is totally connected to u-m/n <jibel> The bugs list was about failures in maverick. <jibel> so no really combination of packages. <pedro_> ok let's try to fix that for the next time <ameetp> pedro_, jibel: do you want an action item to "organize a session on how to triage upgrade bugs next ubuntu dev week"? <jibel> for example we see from that list that fglrx, blcr, and other kernel modules doesn't build in maverick. <charlie-tca> I don't think the list was looked at, tbh. People think of upgrade as meaning they have to install an old version first. We need to explain better, maybe? <pedro_> ameetp, that'd be nice to have , yes please <ameetp> based on charlie-tca comments maybe we need more education on this.. <pedro_> charlie-tca, agreed <ameetp> [ACTION] "organize a session on how to triage upgrade bugs next ubuntu dev week" <Mootbot-UK> ACTION received: "organize a session on how to triage upgrade bugs next ubuntu dev week" <pedro_> alright since tomorrow is Thursday, we have another bug day planned <pedro_> which was also proposed by charlie-tca, the target for tomorrow is Brasero <pedro_> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBugDay/20100916 <pedro_> there's plenty of bugs waiting to be triaged so if you have some time and want to learn more about bug triage and Brasero, please join us tomorrow at #ubuntu-bugs <pedro_> if you don't have too much time to participate but you'd like to do some testing, please help us to test the latest Brasero on Maverick <pedro_> and file bugs if the application is not working correctly for you <ameetp> thanks pedro_! Anything else for us? <pedro_> ameetp, that's all from here unless there's a question/comment <bladernr_> Seems to me brasero bugs will also require a media investment <bladernr_> all the bugs I ever filed against it were due to burn failures * Hoaas (~hoaas@84-16-209.201.3p.ntebredband.no) has joined #ubuntu-quality <ara> bladernr_, some of them are related to the interface or file management, so you can collaborate without expending a CD <bladernr_> ara: ack... just commenting on my own experience <ameetp> ara: good point <ameetp> bladernr_: thanks. we'll keep that in mind during testing <ameetp> any other comments/questions for pedro_? <ameetp> going once... <ameetp> twice... <ara> 500$!! <ameetp> alright, [Topic] Maverick Work Items -- marjo <marjo> http://people.canonical.com/~pitti/workitems/maverick/canonical-platform-qa-ubuntu-10.10.html <Mootbot-UK> LINK received: http://people.canonical.com/~pitti/workitems/maverick/canonical-platform-qa-ubuntu-10.10.html <marjo> nice looking burn-down chart; lots of green above the line and red below the line! <ameetp> \o/ <marjo> nice looking burn-down chart; lots of green above the line and red below the line! * davmor2 has quit (Quit: I'm outta here) <pedro_> great work everybody <marjo> it would look even better if the burndown line was set to 38 initially <marjo> https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/qa-maverick-automated-server-testing <marjo> hggdh will focus on finishing the last two remaining test cases <marjo> https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/qa-maverick-bugsquad-roadmap <marjo> pedro has postponed the update / make a new reporting bugs video to next release when we'll know what would make for better information <marjo> https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/qa-maverick-improving-communication <marjo> https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/qa-maverick-mago-daily <marjo> ara is making good progress on both <marjo> any questions? otherwise, looking good for release! <marjo> ameetp: that's all from me <ameetp> thanks marjo! <skaet> marjo, <marjo> hi skaet <skaet> just a heads up lots of churn today on the X/mesa front. <marjo> skaet: yes, as expected <skaet> cool. <ameetp> skaet: Thanks for the FYI.
