October

  • Meeting: 2011-10-06
    • Chair: Martin Pitt
    • Attendees: Kees Cook, Stephane Graber
    • Guests: Allison Randal, Scott Kitterman, Lamont Jones
  • Brainstorm review update: Cycle completed, see Colin's summary

  • Recruiting new members for the ARB (Allison)
    • Proposal: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AppReviewBoard/Restaffing

    • This was discussed and edited to add the requirement that new board members must be Ubuntu developers, i. e. ~ubuntu-dev members. This does not retroactively apply to the already existing members, though.
    • Proposal carried with 3 for, 0 against, 0 abstained.
  • Postfix microrelease exception request (Scott K)
    • Upstream has tight requirements for what goes into stable microreleases, QAs them with regression tests, and has a good history of not breaking anything. Known breakage so far was in the packaging.
    • Our QA regression testing repository has an existing integration test script which should be run on the proposed packages for checking for general mis-builds, packaging errors, etc.

    • Team members generally feel good about routinely SRUing microreleases, but want to see an existing successful SRU first. Martin signed up for reviewing that SRU. This will be re-discussed after that.
