Remember, the only stupid question is one that isn't asked. 19:16:24 <dvg_i> ? 19:16:33 <lewyssmith> It *is* true in QA that no question is considered silly. 19:16:34 <hviaene> I think I found my way in the Wiki's and alike 19:17:18 <MrsB> let's make a start then.. 19:17:25 <DavidWHodgins> #topic Clocks changing again - confusion abounds 19:17:28 <hviaene> but I have been struggling to get a laptop with multiboot (4 entries), I think I got it right now 19:17:49 <MrsB> that's alot of partitions to juggle! 19:17:50 <lewyssmith> My speicality, multi-booting. 19:18:10 <MrsB> Thanks Dave 19:18:28 <MrsB> The clocks change soon don't they. Next weekend IINM 19:18:28 <dvg_i> Anuone here who has only 1 boot entry? 19:18:32 <DavidWHodgins> As Western Europe changes their clocks back an hour this coming Sunday, starting next week, meetings will move back to 2000 utc. 19:19:07 <tarazed> Yes, me. I prefer things to be simple. 19:19:11 <Akien> Damn Europeans :-) 19:19:15 <MrsB> That's right. Doing so actually keeps the meeting at the same local time for everybody 19:19:39 <DavidWHodgins> For North Americans, whose clocks dont' change until a week later, that means meetings will be one hour later, local time next week, then return to the same time as now, the following week. 19:19:55 <wilcal> Yep 19:20:02 <lewyssmith> Will the IRC heading be updated? 19:20:12 <MrsB> yep, i'll take care of that 19:20:18 <lewyssmith> Thanks. 19:20:21 <dvg_i> why dont the yanks do the same as we? 19:20:30 <MrsB> #action MrsB to update the channel topic for the new meeting time 19:20:34 <wilcal> yanks are always confused 19:20:44 <dvg_i> :)) 19:20:45 <MrsB> always a relevant question dvg_i ;) 19:20:45 <DavidWHodgins> Lol. Why don't the Europeans do the same as us? 19:20:53 <wrw105> dvg: I've been asking the same thing about the metric system for decades.... 19:21:01 <marja> DavidWHodgins: we existed first :-) 19:21:02 <dvg_i> we are more numerous 19:21:13 <MrsB> Dave you're not yank anyway 19:21:15 <DavidWHodgins> I think it's primarily due to differences in latitudes. 19:21:19 <hviaene> You really sound as a bunch of old creeps ;-) 19:21:33 <marja> hviaene: we are :-þ 19:21:35 <DavidWHodgins> Canada and the U.S keep their times in sync. 19:21:50 <DavidWHodgins> lol 19:21:51 <dvg_i> odd 19:22:20 <MrsB> everybody Ok with this? 19:22:26 <wilcal> I'm OK 19:22:27 <marja> before we had railways, every town had its own time here 19:22:38 <marja> yeah, OK 19:22:41 <MrsB> i was reading something about that here too marja 19:22:54 <DavidWHodgins> IIRC, it was a Canadian who invented time zones. 19:23:16 <wrw105> Marja: same here. 19:23:20 <hviaene> Shoot him 19:23:25 <DavidWHodgins> :-) 19:23:38 <marja> hviaene: you're becoming just as creepy as us :-) 19:23:39 <DavidWHodgins> #topic Beta 1 - How's it looking? 19:23:44 <wrw105> MrsB Philosophically, that one will go on forever but practically speaking, I think we're good! 19:23:53 <MrsB> That was quite easy then, this is normally a confusing bit as we all try to work out what time it'll be next week 19:23:54 <dvg_i> pdq 19:24:14 <wilcal> MxB1 has always been a bit of a Circus hasn't it? 19:24:16 <MrsB> Thanks dave 19:24:28 <wilcal> All the big changes now in 19:24:33 <tarazed> The live isos seem to be giving a bit of trouble. 19:24:36 <MrsB> yeah, it's got some big bugs at the moment hasn't it 19:24:57 <wilcal> Seems a bit, or a lot, unstable 19:25:09 <lewyssmith> tarazed: Like the euphemism. 19:25:14 <DavidWHodgins> wilcal: The first beta is usually rather unstable, due to the mass rebuild(s). 19:25:16 <marja> am I correct to think that if I can't get a live to run live, that it is no use trying to install it from the boot menu? 19:25:19 <tarazed> Can I ask what nouveau.modeset=0 means? 19:25:37 <lewyssmith> marja: No harm in trying. 19:25:42 <MrsB> worth trying marja 19:25:53 <olivier_cc> I use it not to load nouveau driver tarazed 19:25:58 * marja will try when she finds some spare time 19:26:03 <MrsB> where did you see that tarazed? 19:26:14 <MrsB> it's a kernel option to be entered at grub 19:26:20 <wilcal> I do have a M5B1 i586 KDE Live-CD Vbox client install that seems to be sticking 19:26:22 <dvg_i> marja: i failed doing that 19:26:28 <tarazed> So, the nouveau driver kicks in if the latest driver fails? 19:26:53 <marja> dvg_i: thx... I'm not running too hard to try ;-) 19:27:19 <olivier_cc> tarazed no it's to avoid the nouveau driver to load 19:27:26 <DavidWHodgins> tarazed: No, it's an option needed for some Nvidia video cards. I don't have any Nvidia cards, so haven't really looked to see what it does. 19:27:46 <MrsB> http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/TroubleShooting/#index2h2 19:27:49 <hviaene> I never tried, can you run a live DVD in a VB? 19:28:01 <DavidWHodgins> hviaene: Yes. 19:28:24 <wilcal> I always try most everything in Vbox first 19:28:30 <DavidWHodgins> hviaene: Just add the iso image file to the dvd drive in the storage settings. 19:28:55 <wilcal> It's the best/safest way to test I think 19:28:56 <hviaene> OK Dave 19:28:59 <MrsB> there is even ti ck to tell it it's a livecd/dvd 19:29:02 <MrsB> tick* 19:29:18 <hviaene> Pardon? 19:29:26 <wilcal> If it don't work in Vbox it's very not likely to work on real hardware 19:29:45 <marja> hviaene: je kunt een vinkje zetten om aan te geven dat het een livecd/dvd is 19:29:58 <DavidWHodgins> If selected, telling vb that it's a live cd/dvd prevents it from being ejected by the guest. 19:30:02 <hviaene> Oh yes, of course 19:30:42 <MrsB> tmb ennael how are things progressing? 19:31:42 <wilcal> we should introduce hviaene to the PAD 19:32:05 <wilcal> https://pad.riseup.net/p/mageia5beta1 19:32:07 <[mbot> [ Riseup Pad ] 19:32:26 <dvg_i> may need 1 or 2x reload before it is viewable 19:32:33 <olivier_cc> speaking about the PAD, I am a bit confused about reporting beta testing : qa-discuss ? riseup pad ? when to fill a bug report ? 19:32:55 <wilcal> for me the pad is a community scratch pad 19:33:14 <wilcal> nothing official but everybody shares their experiences there 19:33:37 <dvg_i> bug reports in bugzilla remain essential\ 19:33:37 <MrsB> Create a bug report, make a note of the issue on the pad. The pad is just for us and iso builders. If the bug is serious then also email qa-discuss and cc the person who built the iso 19:33:39 <tmb> well, I'm going to try to rebuild new isos tomorrow, fixing up some of the issues 19:33:57 <marja> tmb: \o/ 19:33:59 <dvg_i> tmb thanks 19:34:04 <wilcal> I sometimes wait for someone else to report an issue before opening a bug 19:34:07 <DavidWHodgins> The primary purpose of the pad is to let the team know who is testing what, so we can see what still needs testing. 19:34:08 <MrsB> also note the bug number on the pad so others can easily find it and add details etc 19:34:14 <hviaene> Wilcal, i found the PAD already 19:34:22 * david_david can not download any ISO's, it has not received the password :( 19:34:29 <MrsB> david_david: :( 19:34:34 <dvg_i> wilcal you can consult here to get confirmation 19:34:39 <MrsB> it was sent on october 3rd 19:34:47 <DavidWHodgins> Also to note in one place, a summary of bugs found. 19:34:53 <dvg_i> but also chat on the pad (right hand), though only in brief 19:35:00 <tmb> other good news is that with help of Panu (upstream rpm maintainer) we have now a proper fix for installer/rpm/glibc mutex locking issue 19:35:10 <Akien> \o/ 19:35:19 <marja> david_david: did you see MrsB said she sent the password on october 3rd? 19:35:20 <david_david> MrsB: it's always on me that it falls :D 19:35:22 <DavidWHodgins> david_david: Check the spam folder, if using web mail, such as gmail. 19:36:02 <MrsB> sent it to you again david_david 19:36:14 <david_david> DavidWHodgins: I already looked and there is nothing 19:36:34 <MrsB> i'll check my list afterwards. Pretty sure you're on it though 19:36:43 <marja> tmb: that is good news, indeed :-) 19:38:05 <tarazed> Some of the behaviours when testing seem to be related to hardware. I test on 4 64bit systems and had at least three different results for the same iso. 19:38:08 <MrsB> #info tmb planning to rebuild live isos tomorrow fixing some issues. Also with help of Panu (upstream maintainer) there is now a proper fix for installer/rpm/glib mutex locking issue 19:38:12 <MrsB> thanks tmb :) 19:38:19 <DavidWHodgins> david_david: It's still geiger.david68210 at gmail dot com ? 19:38:30 <wilcal> kool something to play with this weekend 19:38:50 <david_david> MrsB: thanks ! oh yes sorry I just saw the reception on October 3 :( 19:38:57 * david_david deserves blame :p 19:39:01 <DavidWHodgins> :-) 19:39:06 <david_david> DavidWHodgins: yep it that 19:39:12 <tmb> And I see colin and tv has done some fixes to both drakxtools and stage2 installer 19:39:21 <marja> nice 19:39:34 <lewyssmith> Morning Ben. 19:39:39 <Benmc> hi 19:39:44 <wilcal> problems with launching drakconf 19:39:46 <MrsB> morning benmc 19:39:55 <Benmc> hi 19:40:19 <wilcal> no sound when I Vbox installed from the CI's 19:40:29 <lewyssmith> Benmc: Read the eventual log re. time change. 19:40:34 <wilcal> something with pulseaudio 19:40:41 <MrsB> bug it wilcal 19:40:43 <wilcal> not working 19:41:12 <MrsB> was it dual? task-pulseaudio isn't on dual 19:41:33 <MrsB> or maybe it is now it's become a dvd 19:42:31 <wilcal> KDE installs from CI's 19:42:35 <MrsB> ennael: anything to add or hiding? ;) 19:42:46 <wilcal> I haven't tried the CI's on real hardware yet 19:43:07 <DavidWHodgins> wilcal: What do you mean by CI's? 19:43:15 <dvg_i> class iso 19:43:18 <wilcal> Classic Installers 19:43:24 <DavidWHodgins> Ok. 19:43:50 <ennael> I'm on dual iso 19:43:53 <dvg_i> Central Intelligence 19:43:57 <DavidWHodgins> lol 19:44:04 <ennael> I fixed one missing dep for xfce 19:44:08 <MrsB> is PA on dual now ennael? 19:44:14 <marja> ennael: thx 19:44:17 <ennael> still pb with lightdm looping 19:44:23 <ennael> trying to investigate 19:45:07 <MrsB> #info dualdvd issues being investigated.

It'd be a way to satill be involved without spending long sessions at the computer 19:50:41 <wrw105> Lewis: log into bugzilla, there's a link on the front page for "My bugs" 19:50:43 <DavidWHodgins> I'll try. 19:50:51 <marja> wrw105: thx 19:51:04 <MrsB> thanks :) it'll take some pressure off bugsquad if we can be a bit self sufficient 19:51:11 <david_david> :maint isodumper -r4 19:51:12 <Sophie> david_david: For Mageia (isodumper): daviddavid 19:51:18 <lewyssmith> Thanks to wrw105 & dvg_i. 19:51:21 <dvg_i> since i joined linux i reported 900+ bugs so I have written them up in a spreadsheet (not uptodate) to know which is what 19:51:32 <david_david> :) 19:51:43 <MrsB> There is also ,maint with mbot which shows recent committers too 19:51:44 <DavidWHodgins> david_david: Thanks. :-) 19:52:14 <MrsB> wow that's highly organised dvg_i 19:52:35 <dvg_i> well it is a half year not kept 19:52:51 <MrsB> sounds good tho anyway :D 19:52:54 <dvg_i> but it helps my aging memory 19:52:55 <Akien> dvg_i: Too many bugs in Mageia to keep it up-to-date :-p 19:52:56 <wrw105> Or to find bugs you've commented on (say updates you've tested), you can do the advanced search for your id/email. 19:53:02 <marja> btw, what is happening with the maintainers that are MIA since february, was it decided that their packages would become nobody's?? 19:53:17 <Akien> marja: I think they will yes 19:53:25 <Akien> I don't know when, but hopefully soon 19:53:30 <dvg_i> Akien: yeah but if old ones are dupes are closed its a lot easier 19:53:35 <Akien> Then we can also drop some of the 19:53:36 <marja> Akien: thx 19:53:42 <Akien> *them 19:53:53 <MrsB> Is there anything else beta 1 before we move on? 19:54:06 <dvg_i> not for me 19:54:08 <wilcal> Is there a list of those potential drops somewhere? 19:54:15 <marja> MrsB: not here 19:54:26 <MrsB> #info Dave will try to help out with bug triage 19:54:29 <dvg_i> wilcal: advanced search in BZ is your friend 19:54:37 <marja> wilcal: I think there was a discussion on dev ml 19:54:44 <DavidWHodgins> Not here, other then keep the pad up to date so I know which bugs to check the assignment of maintainers for. 19:54:56 <MrsB> #info please keep the pad up to date 19:55:06 <dvg_i> indeed 19:55:16 <MrsB> you're in charge of the pad dvg 19:55:20 <dvg_i> oops 19:55:23 <DavidWHodgins> Also don't forget to put beta1 in the whiteboard in bugzilla. 19:55:34 <MrsB> oh yes 19:55:37 <DavidWHodgins> Sorry, that should be m5beta1. 19:55:44 <dvg_i> MrsB: I disagree: every iso tester is 19:55:57 <MrsB> #info Please ensure you add 5beta1 to the whiteboard of any bugs you create for beta 1 19:56:07 <dvg_i> DavidWHodgins: no it is 5beta1 19:56:11 <DavidWHodgins> dvg_i: I think she was jesting. 19:56:22 <DavidWHodgins> dvg_i: Sorry, corrected. 19:56:36 <MrsB> #info or any you find still valid 19:56:50 <dvg_i> DavidWHodgins: no problem. with MrsB you cant be sure. ahem 19:57:11 <marja> dvg_i: do you mind writing instructions about how to properly archive the pad (without wiping what's already in the archive) 19:57:41 <MrsB> cut/paste marja 19:57:48 <dvg_i> marja: will do. but an urchin can do it :)) 19:58:05 <marja> MrsB: there must be a pitfall...... we've had so much missing in the archive 19:58:17 <marja> dvg_i: ^^^ 19:58:23 <dvg_i> marja: you can cycle back 19:58:48 <dvg_i> marja: look at the buttons , IIRC top right 19:58:58 <MrsB> Let's move on then guys 19:59:18 <marja> dvg_i: no, not always.... some of the times I cycled back, it didn't go back as far as needed 19:59:19 <DavidWHodgins> #topic Testing updates - Any issues? 19:59:24 <MrsB> dude :) 19:59:51 <MrsB> I haven't even looked today, how are we doing with updates 19:59:56 <lewyssmith_> Can we let KDE go now? 20:00:01 <wilcal> I would like to ask that we be careful with when we release the kernel, 20:00:03 <wilcal> Vbox and KDE updates There's a lot at stake there. 20:00:09 <MrsB> ouch, doing badly :\ 20:00:42 <wilcal> If we release KDE it should be before the kernel and Vbox stuff, i think 20:00:48 <lewyssmith_> Agree. 20:00:48 <MrsB> yeah we seem to have alot of major updates all at once 20:00:51 <wilcal> and seperate them by maybe a week 20:01:07 <DavidWHodgins> There are 30 updates waiting for testing 14 m3, 16 m4. 20:01:20 <wilcal> I am really relying on everyone else on the KDE thing 20:01:38 <lewyssmith_> All the latest feedback has been good. 20:01:49 <wilcal> take out KDE, kernel and Vbox and a lot come off the board 20:01:59 <Akien> I asked on the French MLO forum for more KDE testers 20:02:08 <MrsB> Let's not validate the major update whilst ISo testing. 20:02:08 <Akien> They are usually eager to get a shiny new version :-p 20:02:20 <DavidWHodgins> MrsB: Agreed. 20:02:21 <marja> wilcal: I even forgot whether I updated the kernel on my 32 or my 64 bits testing partition :-( ... whichever it was looked good, though 20:02:53 <marja> wilcal: KDEs been running on both 32 and 64 for months here, no issues 20:02:55 <wilcal> Sorry I'm lost in testing that php script thing. I tried it and it didn't go well for me 20:03:23 <DavidWHodgins> As the new iso images won't be ready till tommorw, it would be good if everyone could focus on testing the other updates until then. 20:03:27 <wilcal> I likely don't know what I am doing there 20:03:43 <MrsB> #info we won't validate kernels, vbox, kde updates whilst iso testing. Better to get a good look at them before we do. 20:04:52 <DavidWHodgins> wilcal: For php, we normally just ensure all of the updates install cleanly, and things like phpmyadmin runs ok. 20:05:12 <DavidWHodgins> We don't try to test every part of it. 20:05:16 <MrsB> #info there are plenty of other updates which need testing though, including some security updates 20:05:26 <lewyssmith_> It is already OK'd for MGA4x64. 20:05:34 <MrsB> there's a PoC for that one dave 20:05:58 <DavidWHodgins> Oh, ok. Haven't looked at it in detail. 20:06:14 <wilcal> There was an issue that came up on php concerning a bug fix 20:06:26 <MrsB> wilcal: see comment 15 https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14326#c15 20:06:27 <[mbot> Bug 14326: critical, Normal, qa-bugs, NEW , php new security issues CVE-2014-3668, CVE-2014-3669 and CVE-2014-3670, php-5.5.18-1.1.mga4.src.rpm 20:06:51 <wilcal> testing it with a php script didn't work for me but did for Remy 20:07:11 <wilcal> Probably I don't understand how to run the test 20:07:31 <olivier_cc> I wanted to try wpa_supplicant but I don't manage to connect through wifi even with current packages though it detects available networks 20:07:49 <MrsB> :\ 20:07:52 <lewyssmith_> Brave homme! 20:08:24 <olivier_cc> Pauvre homme :( 20:08:49 <olivier_cc> And can you tell me what are the differences between kernel, kernel-linus, kernel-tmb on mageia3 testing ? 20:09:01 <olivier_cc> or is it a too long story ? 20:09:11 <wilcal> Ya that's the script I tried this morning MrsB and it didn't go as described for me 20:09:46 <lewyssmith_> + kernel-vserver? 20:09:57 <marja> olivier_cc: https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Kernel_flavours 20:09:58 <DavidWHodgins> kernel linus is the raw version from upstream. The regular kernels have some patches added by Magiea, The kernel-tmb versions have some experimental features enabled. 20:10:08 <wilcal> kernel testing went well for me 20:10:47 <wilcal> is there a place where I can read about tmb's kernels especially for the laptop? 20:11:06 <olivier_cc> OK thanks ! 20:11:18 <lewyssmith_> tmb is here... 20:11:45 <MrsB> wpa_supplicant needs specific configuration as a wps registrar to be vulnerable. That's deeper than we normally go, so just check that you're able to connect wpa encrypted wireless networks 20:12:56 <wrw105> If that's all we need to do, I can take a look after the meeting (wpa_supplicant_ 20:13:03 <olivier_cc> I'm not able to connect to any wireless network unfortunately. I can do it with arch-linux and ubuntu 20:13:06 <wrw105> On 64- bit anyway. 20:13:15 <dvg_i> the device might need tainted drivers 20:13:21 <MrsB> olivier_cc: using gnome? 20:13:33 <olivier_cc> kde and gnome 20:13:44 <marja> dvg_i: nonfree, I suppose 20:13:51 <MrsB> try urpme networkmanager 20:13:59 <dvg_i> marja: or that 20:14:23 <dvg_i> yes probably networkmanager shuld be disabled 20:14:27 <olivier_cc> ok i'll try that. 20:15:06 <MrsB> it used to interfere with net-applet and cause issues with two wpa_supplicant's running 20:15:08 <dvg_i> removal is not necessary and gnome needs nm 20:15:17 <MrsB> mga4 onwards should be ok with it though 20:15:19 <DavidWHodgins> wilcal: The tmb-laptop kernel can only handle up to 4GB of ram, and uses a lower interrupt rate, to help preserve the battery. 20:15:29 <dvg_i> i have both pckgs with nm disabled 20:15:46 <hviaene> have to go, good evening 20:15:53 <MrsB> nite hv 20:15:54 <dvg_i> tot kijk 20:15:56 <DavidWHodgins> hviaene: Thanks for attending. 20:15:57 <MrsB> iane 20:16:51 <MrsB> Is there anything else scary there? 20:17:13 <lewyssmith_> Python jiblets is being by-passed. 20:17:17 <MrsB> mariadb can be tested with phpmyadmin and drupal (and others) 20:17:41 <wilcal> Is there anyway to test MythTV or are we just going to make sure it installs 20:18:12 <MrsB> bit twister tested mythtv today IINM and colin is going to test it to. 20:18:25 <DavidWHodgins> wilcal: It needs a tv tuner card, as I understand it. 20:18:31 <wilcal> yep 20:18:35 <MrsB> you really need one yeah 20:18:53 <MrsB> any others there too hot to handle? 20:19:01 <olivier_cc> In bacula, I didn't understand why I had to reinstall a package in testing which was already installed to make it work 20:19:28 <lewyssmith_> Olivier got further than I did. 20:19:34 <MrsB> it's a bug olivier_cc, it should have 'feedback' added to the whiteboard again 20:19:39 <DavidWHodgins> wilcal: For things like that, we ask people who are not part of the qa team to test it. If we can't find any, all we can test is that it installs cleanly. 20:20:22 <olivier_cc> ok Claire :) 20:20:45 <MrsB> Any others? 20:20:56 <lewyssmith_> Python jiblets. 20:21:32 <MrsB> hmm we've not updated that one before. It'll need soem investigation 20:21:56 <MrsB> something to do with django i think 20:22:18 <lewyssmith_> It does indeed need investigation! 20:22:24 <DavidWHodgins> urpmq --whatrequires doesn't show that it's required by any other packages. 20:22:45 <olivier_cc> yes this one is a good candidate for headaches I think 20:23:04 <DavidWHodgins> The Summy does say it can be used by Django. 20:23:11 <DavidWHodgins> Not sure how yet though. 20:23:24 <MrsB> you can normally find examples with google for things like that 20:23:39 <lewyssmith_> What is django? 20:23:40 <DavidWHodgins> s /Summy/Summary/ 20:23:56 <MrsB> the python webserver, for serving python scripts 20:24:13 <MrsB> you've tested it before i think 20:24:26 <DavidWHodgins> It's actually called python-django 20:24:29 <MrsB> yes 20:24:35 <lewyssmith_> Thanks. I wonder whether iPython could help. 20:25:00 <MrsB> let's move on then and wrap the meeting up 20:25:26 <DavidWHodgins> #info For Luigi's Roundup, see the email in the qa-discuss mailing list. 20:25:38 <MrsB> I'll paste it here 20:25:42 <wilcal> It's Luigi time :-)) 20:25:47 <MrsB> #topic Luigi's Roundup 20:25:53 <MrsB> #info For upcoming updates, still waiting on Remmy for getmail and Thomas Spuhler for php-ZendFramework (I think he's been traveling). The chromium-browser-stable update is stuck due to a build issue on Mageia 3. 20:26:07 <lewyssmith_> Bill: he is running in the mud. 20:26:13 <MrsB> #info Firefox had a build issue in Cauldron, but Florian committed a working patch for that this morning, so I should be pushing an update (FF/TB/etc mga#14293) to QA tomorrow assuming everything builds fine in Mageia 3 and Mageia 4. 20:26:35 <MrsB> #info The Java update is still stuck because Fedora hasn't updated 1.8.0 in Rawhide yet. There should be a mariadb update coming soon. I've also filed bugs for gnome-shell and perl-Mojolicious this past week, so hopefully those will be coming soon. 20:27:01 <wrw105> The mariadb dropped already today.... 20:27:03 <MrsB> #info I'll also probably push Mageia 4-only updates soon for nginx (already built) and qemu (assuming it builds) as there seems to be no hope of fixing those on Mageia 3. </luigi12> 20:27:32 <MrsB> That only leaves one thing to do .. 20:27:44 <DavidWHodgins> #topic Anything else? 20:27:47 <MrsB> :D 20:27:53 <MrsB> Is there anything else? 20:28:00 <DavidWHodgins> Nothing else here. 20:28:03 <olivier_cc> I wanted to give a big thanks for DavidWHodgins for his tutorial in qa-discuss about setting up a lan with virtualboxes (and his patience with me !) 20:28:17 <DavidWHodgins> olivier_cc: You're welcome. 20:28:23 <wilcal> Not from me, I'm gonna take a break from computers for the rest of today ;-)) 20:28:24 <lewyssmith_> Can this be Wiki'd? 20:28:52 <DavidWHodgins> Eventually. I hate creating/modifying wikis. :-) 20:29:27 <olivier_cc> I can try it if you want, you've done enough on it :) 20:29:27 <lewyssmith_> Send it all to me as text & I will put it up if you like. 20:29:30 <dvg_i> DavidWHodgins: If you have a story to tell, i can wikify it 20:29:56 <DavidWHodgins> The emails in the qa-discuss already include everything, I think. 20:30:09 <DavidWHodgins> There were three, iirc. 20:30:11 <lewyssmith_> I did not keep them (no VB). 20:30:23 <MrsB> you delete emails :O 20:30:34 <dvg_i> OMG 20:30:39 <lewyssmith_> Extravagently. 20:30:44 <MrsB> omgz 20:31:08 <lewyssmith_> But I keep thos that remain useful to me. 20:31:14 <MrsB> Is there anything else else? 20:31:32 <DavidWHodgins> I've got a little over 131,000 emails saved. 20:31:50 <Benmc> lewis, i can send you a copy 20:31:55 <MrsB> you had email when the ark was new though Dave :P 20:31:55 <dvg_i> thats nothing 20:32:01 <wilcal> Your a popular guy David 20:32:03 <wrw105> https://ml.mageia.org/wwsympa-wrapper.fcgi/arc/qa-discuss 20:32:05 <[mbot> [ qa-discuss - Discussions about QA tasks and requests - arc_protect ] 20:32:19 <DavidWHodgins> (That's the received emails. Plus another 11,000 sent messages. 20:32:39 <MrsB> If there's nothing else else I'll start the countdown 20:32:48 <DavidWHodgins> Not here. 20:32:58 <MrsB> thankyou all for coming! 20:33:01 <lewyssmith_> Goodbye all. 20:33:02 <marja> nor here 20:33:03 <MrsB> T - 5 20:33:04 <wilcal> bye 20:33:05 <MrsB> 4 20:33:06 <wrw105> I've gotten my share of snarky and useful comments... :-) 20:33:06 <MrsB> 3 20:33:08 <MrsB> 2 20:33:08 <marja> good night all 20:33:09 <MrsB> 1 20:33:11 <MrsB> #endmeeting
