Checking imports - Thanks jtatum!
GConf wrapper - Thanks jtatum!
- Mago packaging
- Daily Builds update - jcollado

Notes
Pending merges
- The SKIP change seems quite important and needed. Open for merging
Mago PPA
Mago will have regular updates to the PPA at https://launchpad.net/~mago-contributors/+archive/ppa with both the framework and tests for Karmic and Jaunty
- One possibility is having a dedicated build machine for daily PPAs
- ACTION: ara to follow-up with james_w about the build machine
- ACTION: jtatum to add a wiki page with the process of adding new Mago dependencies
Mago roadmap
- It is agreed that we are going to use Wiki+Bug reports for small features and Wiki+Blueprints for larger features.

[17:31] <ara> Hello all :-) [17:31] <mikefletcher> Hi. [17:31] <ara> Anybody for the automated testing meeting= [17:31] <ara> ? [17:32] <mikefletcher> Hmm. Might be a quick meeting. I was just going to lurk. [17:32] <ara> mikefletcher, hehe [17:33] <ara> eeejay, jtatum, cgregan ? [17:33] <ara> marjo, ? [17:33] <jtatum> hi! [17:33] <ara> Well, we are not many, but growing ;-) [17:33] <ara> Let's start [17:34] <ara> [TOPIC] Mago pending merges [17:34] <ara> * [17:34] <ara> Skip test cases [17:34] <ara> I haven't had the time to review this merge request. Have you? [17:35] <ara> While people answer, I would like to thank mikefletcher and jtatum for their contributions [17:35] <ara> Thanks guys! You rock! [17:35] <mikefletcher> No problem. [17:36] <jtatum> I have reviewed it. It looks pretty great, especially for test development. The long term broken tests cases is a good one as well [17:37] <ara> jtatum, OK, I don't know if I will have time to review in the mean time, but the merge comments look good. I will ask jcollado to merge the changes [17:37] <ara> [TOPIC] Mago packaging [17:37] <ara> * Daily Builds update - jcollado [17:38] <ara> Reproducing jcollado comments, as he couldn't attend [17:39] <ara> The basic idea is that I wanted a jaunty package to make easier to run tests on [17:39] <ara> different machines without having to deal with bazaar. Hence, I created mago [17:39] <ara> and mago-test packages. [17:39] <ara> mago package should contain the same files as in karmic, while mago-test [17:39] <ara> should contain all the test cases in trunk. Otherwise, please let me know. Since [17:39] <ara> both packages are generated using the latest version in trunk, I've also made [17:39] <ara> them available for karmic just in case someone finds it useful. [17:39] <ara> Despite I'm interested in using reasonably up-to-date packages, I'm not exactly [17:39] <ara> looking for generating them on a daily basis so I'll upload new versions [17:39] <ara> periodically depending on the amount of changes in trunk. [17:39] <ara> I think this is great, thanks jcollado [17:40] <jtatum> +1 [17:40] <ara> I was talking to james_w to see if we could have a machine to have fully automated builds [17:40] <ara> I will keep you guys posted about this [17:41] <jtatum> I guess I have a question about adding dependencies. As we merge them in, should we propose merges to the packaging? [17:42] <ara> jtatum, sure, you can request merges into jcollado branches (I will ask him to change the ownership to mago-contributors) [17:42] <ara> or use the karmic code at [17:42] * ara checks [17:43] <ara> https://code.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mago [17:43] <jtatum> OK, great. I'll make an action item to note this process on the Wiki somewhere. As you mentioned on the mailing list, there's a distinction between requires and suggests depending on whether it's 'core mago' or part of a test [17:44] <ara> jtatum, yes, I think it is best like that [17:44] <ara> jtatum, if not, mago will end with one of the packages with the longest dependencies in Ubuntu :D [17:44] <jtatum> haha [17:45] <ara> jtatum, can you take that as an action? [17:46] <ara> jtatum, to write a page about that process in the mago wiki? [17:46] <jtatum> ara: yes. [17:46] <ara> jtatum, cool [17:46] <ara> jtatum, last item [17:46] <ara> [TOPIC] Mago roadmap [17:46] <ara> * Should this be on the mago wiki or should this be in the LP roadmap system? - jtatum [17:47] <ara> I think that a combination of both should work better [17:47] <jtatum> This is just my ignorance probably. I have only skimmed the LP roadmap system so I'm probably just not aware of the challenges. [17:48] <ara> blueprints in launchpad are not that useful for small features [17:49] <ara> we can use a combination of wiki (to have a common place to go) + links to bugs for small features, or blueprints for large features [17:50] <jtatum> OK. Sounds good. [17:50] <ara> Good [17:50] <ara> any other topics? [17:51] <ara> OK, I think we can wrap up [17:51] <ara> I will send the notes to the list [17:51] <ara> thanks! [17:51] <mikefletcher> fyi, i'm going add a Tomboy Test Suite to the roadmap and write my name beside it. [17:51] <ara> mikefletcher, nice!
