I'll do that after the meeting. 19:11:49 <Sebsebsebb> Hi 19:11:53 <Akien> The good thing is that now we seem to have more packaging bugs than installer issues :) 19:11:55 <wilcal> sounds like a plan 19:11:58 <MrsB> morning Sebsebsebb 19:12:00 <ennael> indeed 19:12:08 <Akien> Conflicts between DEs, stuff like that. 19:12:13 <Sebsebsebb> Evening MrsB 19:12:20 <ennael> it will save time if we review after first tests 19:12:27 <marja> yes 19:12:27 <Akien> Agreed 19:12:35 <ennael> can we organize this during next QA meeting? 19:12:59 <Akien> Sounds good to me if we can have the ISOs tomorrow. 19:13:11 <ennael> I will do it tonight as I cannot tomorrow 19:13:17 <Akien> Even better :) 19:13:25 <MrsB> Yeah that's probably a good time. Some may be missing though due to time differences. We have a number from AU/NZ now 19:13:48 <ennael> and one priority is to update pending release critical bugs 19:13:58 <wilcal> I have an open day tomorrow ( california time ) 19:13:59 <ennael> so that we have last results in hand when reviewing 19:14:35 <marja> and it'll be docteam meeting then 19:14:52 <marja> Thursday, I mean 19:15:28 <MrsB> we'll have to work around everything 19:16:45 <ennael> indeed that's the beauty of releasing :p 19:16:54 <marja> :-) 19:17:11 <MrsB> has anything big broken yet? 19:17:12 <ennael> marja: you will have tonight the iso also to be used for docteam 19:17:36 <wilcal> I'm pretty comfortable with M5 as it is today 19:17:42 <marja> ennael: yes, thanks :-) 19:17:55 <wilcal> sure wrinkles but for me nothing that can't be fixed after release 19:18:21 <Sebsebsebb> I missed something since wasn't here yet what's thus about ISO 19:18:37 <MrsB> https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14069 tracker bug 19:18:39 <[mbot> [ Bug 14069 [Tracker] Mageia 5 release critical ] 19:18:57 <ennael> MrsB: anything special you would like to mention about coming isos? 19:19:04 <marja> Sebsebsebb: hi seb, new isos will be built for QA tonight, we'll discuss release blockers in QA meeting Thursday 19:19:09 <MrsB> http://lstu.fr/MgaSecurityBugs all release blockers, sometimes they don't get added to the tracker 19:19:11 <[mbot> [ Log in to Mageia Bugzilla ] 19:19:58 <MrsB> I need to send out the password for everybody that tmb sent today so it's a bit early really 19:20:06 <MrsB> I'll do that after the meeting 19:20:12 <ennael> we should at least work on oldest sec bugs 19:20:19 <Sebsebsebb> Marja right ok :) and yes maybe Mageia 5 final next week :d 19:20:22 <ennael> then we will have to stop at one point to release 19:20:29 <ennael> others will come through updates 19:20:29 <leuhmanu> (this link goes to sec bugs) 19:20:40 <MrsB> which sec bugs? 19:20:49 <MrsB> ohhh sorry, wrong link 19:20:57 <leuhmanu> https://bugs.mageia.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=P1 19:21:00 <MrsB> http://lstu.fr/Mga5ReleaseBlockers 19:21:03 <[mbot> [ Log in to Mageia Bugzilla ] 19:21:05 <ennael> sec nugs are also important :) 19:22:48 <MrsB> Could you please announce any bugs which have been fixed, that you can remember, when announcing the ISOs 19:23:34 <ennael> yep ok 19:23:41 <ennael> at least what should be fixed :) 19:23:50 <MrsB> yeah 19:24:18 <MrsB> it gives people an idea what to check 19:25:06 <ennael> yep ok 19:26:25 <ennael> any question about isos, bugs? 19:26:27 <MrsB> Does anything need to be done with the API or mirrorlist for testing final? 19:27:20 <marja> ah, we should indeed be adding using 5 instead of cauldron now 19:27:27 <tmb> mirrorlist is updated to point at /5/ 19:27:39 <marja> nice 19:27:39 <leuhmanu> and product .id ? 19:27:51 <tmb> (even if it's a symlink to caulron) 19:28:29 <Akien> Silly question, but do we stick to our "thornicroft" codename for yet another release? :) 19:28:37 <ennael> :) 19:28:38 <Akien> (cf. /etc/lsb-release) 19:28:42 <marja> why not :-) 19:28:44 <ennael> make some proposal 19:28:46 <MrsB> as 5 is on the mirrors this time we could switch the product.id early i suppose 19:29:13 <ennael> as a side note here is the todo list for release 19:29:14 <ennael> https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Mageia_Release_Countdown 19:29:24 <tmb> the installer / product id will change to stable tree as soon as we switch mageia-release to stable mode 19:30:08 <MrsB> in theory 19:30:43 <marja> Akien: what about "five" for a code name .. or "highfive" :-) 19:31:10 <MrsB> "nightmare" 19:31:13 <marja> lol 19:31:35 <Akien> "tardy" 19:31:49 <tmb> unicorn ? 19:31:56 <MrsB> :D 19:32:03 <ennael> :) 19:32:07 <ennael> popcorn 19:32:12 <ennael> better 19:32:15 <marja> :-) 19:32:43 <ennael> so basically this todo list is not yet to be executed 19:32:57 <ennael> we will see after coming bug review when to plan this 19:33:05 <marja> ok 19:33:24 <marja> (pasting the link for papoteur) https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Mageia_Release_Countdown 19:33:42 <papoteur> thanks marja 19:34:16 <marja> papoteur: next QA meeting will be about release blockers (same time as docteam meeting) 19:34:34 <marja> papoteur: and new QA isos will be built tonight 19:34:43 <tmb> ennael, yeah, only mirrorlist api has been changed 19:35:31 <papoteur> marja: we should postpone our docteam metting, I'm not at home thursday :/ 19:35:32 <MrsB> need to update the artwork before building too 19:35:40 <marja> papoteur: ok 19:35:50 <Akien> MrsB: True, I'll do that in git 19:36:21 <Akien> We should also review the Release notes and Errata 19:36:25 <ennael> indeed 19:36:52 <Akien> Especially the release notes since they have to be included in the ISOs, so they should be finished asap 19:36:52 <Sebsebsebb> Back lost connection to wireless for a bit 19:38:01 <MrsB> there's likely to be several builds again, but let's aim for fewer than 9 19:38:35 <Sebsebsebb> Yeah fewer than 9 sounds good 19:38:45 <marja> 1 :-) 19:39:02 <MrsB> the extra time spent workign on the RC was time well spent though 19:39:40 <wilcal> M5's pretty polished right now 19:39:42 <Sebsebsebb> Fewer than 1 is unrealistic heh heh @ marjaunia 19:40:02 <Sebsebsebb> Hmm interesting auto correct 19:40:43 <ennael> new addiction? :) 19:41:02 <papoteur> :) 19:41:08 <ennael> https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Mageia_5_Release_Notes 19:41:27 <ennael> https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Mageia_5_Errata 19:41:31 <ennael> for the links 19:41:49 <wilcal> M5 + Flightgear = Massive addiction 19:42:04 <Akien> wilcal: :-P 19:42:59 <Akien> I'll post about it on dev@ and qa-discuss@ to get people active on those two pages 19:43:19 <Akien> And I'll do my part and write the Games section... /me hides 19:43:34 <marja> :-) 19:43:43 <MrsB> you've alot to write then 19:43:54 <Schultz> Ill look over them tomorrow night hopefully. If not wednesday 19:43:59 <ennael> ok anything else on that point ? 19:44:44 <Akien> Stormi and I have started "asking" the documentation team for help on bugs that require stuff to be put in errata 19:45:15 <marja> and I asked MrsB to do one of them 19:45:25 <Akien> Is it alright? Ideally it should be the developers that should document the bugs that they know, but can we consider that docteam is "responsible" of the errata page? 19:45:55 <marja> I don't think so :-รพ but we're willing to help when we can 19:45:56 <Akien> It does not mean that docteam should do all the work, but ensure that the information is there and accurate, and harass the developers to get the needed info :) 19:46:26 <MrsB> i don't think that's likely to work 19:46:28 <marja> Akien: there are too few active docteam members for that 19:47:13 <Akien> papoteur: WDYT about the above? 19:47:37 <papoteur> docteam is concentrated on updating the manuals to new functions, in particular for UEFI installations. 19:48:30 <papoteur> Akien: if we can help, we will do. This is not easy to resume a bug report od 50 comments. 19:48:51 <papoteur> s/od/of 19:49:01 <MrsB> yeah, that's not really fair 19:49:03 <Akien> Yeah I understand. What I'm looking for is someone/a team that could supervise the errata, and make sure that everything gets documented as it should. 19:49:36 <Akien> I fear that we might be missing stuff with all the bugs that we squash everyday 19:50:02 <marja> Akien: things can always still be added to the errata after release, if needed 19:50:05 <Akien> Or do we at least have a reliable way to find out bug reports that need to be errata'ed? 19:50:27 <MrsB> there are the closed bugs on the tracker 19:50:29 <Akien> Maybe we should use a whiteboard tag for that? 19:50:45 <papoteur> Akien: some are listed during meetings. 19:51:14 <tmb> isn't there already an "errata" tag ? 19:51:20 <marja> Akien: Stormi proposed a "ERRATA" keyword, but we could decice to use the uppercase ERRATA as whiteboard tag 19:51:24 <papoteur> Akien: it's sure a good idea, but perhaps late? 19:51:31 <marja> tmb: yes, that's what we had in 2011 19:51:49 <marja> tmb: but since then many flavours of that tag have emerged 19:51:49 <Akien> From what I've seen the ERRATA tag is often used _after_ the bug has been documented 19:52:07 <Akien> Which is good. But we still miss bugs that have not been documented yet 19:52:26 <leuhmanu> well some stuff needs to removed to like https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Mageia_5_Errata#GNOME_live_isos certainly 19:52:32 <marja> Akien: they're documented in bugzilla 19:52:49 <leuhmanu> " this should be fixed, but keeping it in the errata for now in case someone hits it again. " 19:53:15 <tmb> leuhmanu, well, it still happends on non-live mode... 19:53:39 <leuhmanu> then it should not be here 19:53:40 <tmb> as the workaround was only written for / tested with live mode 19:53:47 <Akien> marja: Not really. Users have no way to find them. 19:53:50 <leuhmanu> ah no sorry 19:54:15 <tmb> buy I hope to have it properly fixed for final 19:54:17 <marja> Akien: we can't possibly add everything to the errata 19:54:47 <Akien> marja: Well every release blocker that we decide to drop as an errata entry, should be in the errata. 19:54:59 <marja> Akien: ah, yes, of course 19:55:21 <Akien> That's what I'm speaking about. Critical bugs that were not solved, are not in the errata yet, so have no ERRATA tag. 19:55:45 <papoteur> Akien: Are they Mga6 release blockers? 19:56:10 <Akien> papoteur: Some of them indeed, that's a good place to start to spot potential missing errata entries. 19:56:22 <marja> Akien: why not keep them release blocker until the are errata'ed 19:56:43 <Akien> marja: Because release blockers make us depressed :) 19:56:43 <marja> s/the/they/ 19:57:40 <Akien> But yes to be fair, most of the time we only decrease priority once the bug has been documented, or moved to the mga6 tracker 19:57:47 <marja> Akien: then add 2ADD2ERRATA on the white board 19:58:00 <Akien> I'll try to browse through my archives and see if some bugs fell through the net 19:58:10 <MrsB> seems t be soem release notes in the errata 19:58:46 <Akien> Indeed 19:58:53 <marja> bug 15670 probably still needs to be added 20:01:26 <Akien> marja: FOR_ERRATA is maybe easier to read no? :) 20:01:35 <marja> Akien: yes 20:01:56 <papoteur> Akien: Ok 20:02:11 <Akien> I'll try to review the errata to move the release notes content away 20:02:29 <marja> Akien: thx 20:03:03 <Akien> What is our next topic? 20:03:30 <ennael> atelier :) 20:03:37 <Sebsebsebb> Ok 20:04:10 <MrsB> brb, sorry 20:04:25 <ennael> https://pad.riseup.net/p/mageia5_pressrelease 20:04:27 <[mbot> [ Riseup Pad ] 20:04:27 <Sebsebsebb> Well Schultz havering connection issues it seems but I am deputy so let's go 20:04:39 <ennael> we still have to finalize press release 20:04:44 <Sebsebsebb> Yep 20:06:06 <Sebsebsebb> Did you start the pad I only just seen it 20:07:15 <Akien> I'll try to take some time this week to work on the press release 20:07:28 <Sebsebsebb> :) @ Aiken 20:07:35 <ennael> it has been mailed by Akien 20:07:40 <ennael> 10 days ago 20:07:57 <Sebsebsebb> Yes you seem to do the blog posts @ Aiken 20:08:00 <Akien> I think we'll do press release + blog post at the same time, since press release will mostly be a subset of the blog post IMO 20:08:59 <Sebsebsebb> Yes sounds good 20:10:04 <Sebsebsebb> Also do we have a likely release date for Mageia 5 likely as in even if a bit after with reason 20:10:23 <MrsB> good point 20:11:01 <MrsB> It's going to depend largely on how these first ISOs are looking 20:11:09 <MrsB> and what remains to be done 20:11:32 <Sebsebsebb> Yeah 20:11:47 <Sebsebsebb> So maybe a tubal in about three weeks 20:11:54 <Sebsebsebb> Final above 20:11:58 <wilcal> for sure this month right? 20:12:27 <ennael> within 2 weeks whould be the best 20:12:33 <MrsB> I'd say more likely 2 weeks but you never know, the final might go quickly what with all the work that went into the RC 20:12:58 <Sebsebsebb> @ Akien we can get the press release etc sorted our early though :) 20:13:09 <wilcal> Sounds like a plan 20:13:14 <MrsB> depends on team leaders Sebsebsebb 20:13:27 <Akien> Yeah that's the idea. The press release should be done asap. 20:14:01 <Sebsebsebb> Yep 20:14:06 <ennael> ok any other topic ? 20:14:25 <marja> ennael: board elections and association members 20:14:39 <marja> ennael: adding association members first 20:15:06 <Sebsebsebb> Not really as such but since deputy of atelier should be added to council list as far as I know still can't send to it if I want to 20:16:37 <Akien> Sebsebsebb: You should be able to now: http://people.mageia.org/g/mga-council.html 20:16:38 <[mbot> [ people.mageia.org: g/mga-council ] 20:17:39 <wilcal> I'm good 20:19:40 <marja> #topic getting new association members 20:20:03 <ennael> ok so any proposals for new members ? 20:20:26 <marja> ennael: everyone who has been in council for a year or longer and hasn't yet been added 20:20:52 <marja> ennael: + people who did a lot for the project, even if they're less active now 20:21:18 <marja> ennael: e.g. dmorgan, tv, pterjan, wally, undoubtedly many more 20:21:55 <marja> ennael: in my opinion: better too many than too few (but feel free to disagree!) 20:22:01 <ennael> ok then 20:22:16 <ennael> easiest is to make a proposal by mail 20:22:20 <ennael> and we can complete it 20:23:05 <marja> ennael: OK, I'll make a list with (former) 1yr or + council members 20:23:28 <marja> ennael: and start a list with important contributors 20:23:30 <MrsB> i'd like to see more from the general community too, like active/respected forum people, people who always attend events or represent Mageia in other ways etc 20:23:32 <ennael> thanks 20:24:04 <marja> MrsB: feel free to start the important contributors list 20:24:25 <marja> MrsB: then I'll start the council members one 20:24:32 <MrsB> well i suppose the best way to star would be to ask the forums team for suggestions 20:24:46 <marja> doktor5000__: ^^^ 20:25:25 <wilcal> The good doktor is super 20:25:52 <marja> MrsB: and maybe people from local communities, like napcok (who made the Polish Mga 1 Live iso and maintained the Polish Mageia forums) 20:26:29 <marja> and, of course, MageiaWelcome is a good contribution, too 20:27:19 <marja> is there more on this topic? 20:27:34 <ennael> not for me 20:27:50 <MrsB> all done :) 20:27:53 <marja> shall we end the meeting? 20:28:20 <marja> everyone's asleep ;-) 20:28:25 <marja> #endmeeting
