Plugin info at http://wiki.debian.org/MeetBot. 19:25:17 <IZBot> Useful Commands: #action #agreed #help #info #idea #link #topic. 19:25:22 <colonelqubit> raal: perfect timing ;-) 19:26:12 <colonelqubit> Okay, let's look at our UNCONFIRMED bugs 19:26:27 <colonelqubit> hmm...we've zoomed all the way up to 371 UNCONFIRMED 19:27:06 <colonelqubit> we might need to organize a bug-squishing party or something 19:27:35 <colonelqubit> wish that I could invite everyone over to my place for an evening event: Bug squishing + free dinner 19:28:19 <colonelqubit> ahoneybun: Any thoughts on how we can improve our bug-triaging stats? 19:29:00 <ahoneybun> I don't have knowledge of the current way things are being done now 19:29:45 <colonelqubit> ahoneybun: fair enough 19:30:06 <jorendc> not sure about the rise 19:30:28 <colonelqubit> jorendc: how so? 19:30:47 <jorendc> we always see some 'zoome up' when a major release is comming...? 19:31:14 <colonelqubit> it depends 19:31:28 <colonelqubit> but yes, people have been reporting a bit more 19:31:39 <colonelqubit> I know that the BugHunting Session was very successful 19:31:46 <colonelqubit> (hey -- it's on our agenda! ;-) 19:31:46 <jorendc> indeed 19:31:54 <colonelqubit> but that resulted in a large # of bugs being filed 19:31:54 <jorendc> so I'm not 'afraid' of the short rise of bugs 19:32:01 <colonelqubit> So we do have to compensate over time 19:32:24 <colonelqubit> I'm mostly concerned about bugs not getting the attention that they need for a while 19:32:37 <colonelqubit> with 50 bugs, it's a lot harder for ones to hide 19:32:47 <colonelqubit> with ~400, it's much easier for many to slip through the cracks 19:33:16 <jorendc> true, but I saw some very fast feedback when the summary contains 'crash' or somethign like that 19:33:23 <colonelqubit> e.g. we have tons that were last changed back in April 19:33:44 <jorendc> so I think we have good 'filters' and bugscreeners 19:33:48 <colonelqubit> based on my non-scientific look at my scrollbars, I'd say 1/3rd :P 19:34:37 * colonelqubit nods 19:34:52 <colonelqubit> mjayfrancis: perhaps gone? 19:37:12 <colonelqubit> well, we can take a look at some past items 19:37:16 <colonelqubit> steve-_-: you still here? 19:37:29 <jorendc> looks like we are in a dessert :) 19:37:34 <jorendc> let's go through the other points 19:37:47 <steve-_-> yes, but actually working on stuff will listening to design hangout as radio station and lurking here for extra procrastination power 19:38:02 <jorendc> conclusion about previous point: lets not get concerned to early, lets see the numbers for upcomming weeks 19:38:02 <colonelqubit> steve-_-: cool. Was just wondering if you knew what was left with image testing on OSX 19:38:14 <colonelqubit> jorendc: indeed 19:38:22 <steve-_-> colonelqubit: good question. is there anything? 19:38:25 * steve-_- looks at the wiki 19:38:27 <colonelqubit> (I was going to see if anyone else appeared and decided to chime -in :-) 19:39:19 <colonelqubit> steve-_-: I'm not sure. I'll take a look at some point. I've been release engineer this week, too, so that's been extra work to carry 19:39:56 <colonelqubit> Walrus flag will have to punt again 19:40:15 <colonelqubit> #topic MAB's are being replaced 19:40:34 <colonelqubit> So as Joel mentioned in his email, we're replacing MABs with Importance fields 19:40:49 <colonelqubit> priority/severity should hopefully give an indication about each of the bugs 19:41:03 <jorendc> agreed :) 19:41:18 <jorendc> what priority/severity combinations does hit the 'MAB'-mark? 19:42:10 <colonelqubit> we're hoping to get that code merged-in soon to our Bugzilla instance, at which point we'll start to put most people who've shown aptititude or interest in triage into the group with editing powers 19:42:14 <colonelqubit> jorendc: what combination? 19:43:05 <colonelqubit> priority of high or highest should be enough to get some strong attention 19:43:11 <jorendc> okay 19:43:37 <colonelqubit> but we'll use the highest rung to indicate the "MAB" status 19:44:18 <colonelqubit> we had a little chat about the "blocker" severity. While we can imagine bugs that are that bad, they are very, very rare 19:44:41 <colonelqubit> They're so rare that it seems like we'd just have a conversation about them 19:45:00 <jorendc> true +1 19:45:10 <colonelqubit> such as "This critical bug HAS to be fixed before we go forward" 19:45:20 <colonelqubit> We could even put something in the Whiteboard or Keywords for that 19:45:39 <colonelqubit> Personally I think it's fine to have the entry in the drop-down 19:45:48 <steve-_-> colonelqubit: should I be seeing media testing somewhere? 19:45:54 <steve-_-> it's not under projects 19:46:08 <colonelqubit> https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Media_Support/Summary 19:46:28 <colonelqubit> and once we restrict access to the fields, hopefully we'll see people be judicious about how they use Blocker 19:46:37 <jorendc> colonelqubit: I'd like to only have 1 field to mark such bugs (BLOCKER in this case) 19:47:06 <colonelqubit> so you'd want to have one field for severity + priority? 19:47:16 <colonelqubit> or? /me isn't sure.. 19:47:34 <jorendc> colonelqubit: no, but not AND blocker as severity AND some keyword or whiteboard status 19:47:44 <steve-_-> colonelqubit: vector images and docmuent file formats missing 19:47:46 <steve-_-> for osyx 19:47:52 * colonelqubit nods 19:47:55 <colonelqubit> (at steve-_-) 19:48:12 <colonelqubit> jorendc: ah yes, I see 19:48:27 <colonelqubit> I personally think that it'll be much simpler once we feel like we can trust those fields more 19:48:29 <jorendc> just blocker should do if done correctly of course 19:48:36 <jorendc> yups 19:48:57 <colonelqubit> similarly, I hope to have time to roll out some more BZ upgrades 19:49:20 <jorendc> but I'm not for a kind of 'let's create something else because we don't do it correct right now' 19:50:01 <colonelqubit> jorendc: oh, definitely 19:50:28 <colonelqubit> that being said, I am sensitive to the fact that as a project with many volunteers, we may have to do things differently than a company with many employees such as Canonical or RedHat 19:50:48 <jorendc> colonelqubit: what do you mean exactly? 19:51:10 <colonelqubit> Sometimes our processes need to adapt to be flexible for volunteers 19:51:21 <jorendc> sure 19:51:26 <colonelqubit> so instead of just training everyone how to use the tool, we might add a tooltip (e.g. what I did for NEEDINFO status) 19:51:37 <jorendc> +1 19:52:09 <colonelqubit> #topic BugHunting Session 5.0 19:52:16 <colonelqubit> So I think we already talked a bit about this one 19:52:25 <colonelqubit> went very well; got some great feedback 19:52:38 <colonelqubit> We're still needing some testing done on 64bit Windows builds 19:53:31 <jorendc> looks like our x64 builds are broken? 19:53:46 * colonelqubit nods 19:53:54 <colonelqubit> I believe that Norbert was looking into that 19:54:19 <colonelqubit> I thought that Cloph was back this week, but apparently he's off for 2 weeks, so I'll email him about the status of 64bit tb's 19:55:04 <jorendc> :) 19:55:15 <colonelqubit> jorendc, ahoneybun: If any of you (or anyone else) is currently building for win64 native, it'd be great to get some feedback 19:55:36 <ahoneybun> building? 19:55:43 * jorendc only builds on linux 19:55:58 <colonelqubit> jorendc: it's new -- native win64 builds 19:56:06 <colonelqubit> (that's part of the reason we need to test them) 19:56:43 <jorendc> yups 19:56:50 <ahoneybun> I have Windows machine in my housr 19:56:55 <ahoneybun> *housr 19:58:06 <colonelqubit> ahoneybun: yeah, getting a win dev environment up and running is a bit more challenging, but it'd be cool to see if that works out for you 19:58:36 <ahoneybun> tbh I have no desire to have a Windows machine in any sense 19:59:01 <ahoneybun> I mean I could use the key from my current laptop on another machine 19:59:12 <ahoneybun> but finding isos is damn hard 19:59:19 <ahoneybun> uncracked ones 19:59:50 <Kardos> can't you download them from microsoft? 20:00:12 <ahoneybun> with a membership thing 20:00:17 <colonelqubit> sometimes the software is tied to particular hardware 20:00:37 <ahoneybun> I have a ISO just the thing will not show up on my computer 20:00:49 <ahoneybun> when I put it on a USB, but anyway off topic maybe 20:01:00 <Kardos> virtualbox? 20:01:32 <colonelqubit> ahoneybun: we can talk more about that later -- perhaps one of the netbooks might work out for you, too 20:01:50 <ahoneybun> I could Kardos 20:01:51 <Kardos> ah, MS doesn't provide unfettered ISOs anymore. cancel that 20:01:52 <colonelqubit> #topic Other topics 20:02:24 <colonelqubit> Let's see...we talked about win64, Bug Hunting Session 20:02:31 <colonelqubit> Oh! Android builds 20:02:39 <colonelqubit> who's currently running them/testing them? 20:02:55 <jorendc> I did install the beta one (of collabora itself) 20:02:58 <raal> me 20:03:11 <jorendc> looks good (not tested them with advanced documents yet) 20:03:11 <colonelqubit> Great!

Where are they in the cycle? beta builds? 20:09:52 <raal> colonelqubit: yes, these builds are available 20:10:17 <colonelqubit> #action Make sure we've got a plan to test on Windows 10 (Robinson) 20:10:21 <raal> should be final in summer 20:10:35 <ahoneybun> it takes awhile to render 20:10:37 <raal> with free upgrade from win7 and 8 20:10:38 <colonelqubit> #action Make sure Win64-bit-native builds are available as dailys 20:11:03 <ahoneybun> load something 20:11:15 <colonelqubit> #action Send materials to ahoneybun (Robinson) 20:11:25 <raal> so I expect lots of win10 20:11:42 <colonelqubit> raal: have you had a chance to poke at it yet?
