 15:41 <willcooke> happyaron, please let me have you updates

 15:42 <willcooke> We need to have them on a Tuesday afternoon your time *every* week.

 15:42 <willcooke> #topic hikiko

 15:42 <willcooke> Sorry, haven't had time to summarise this:

 15:42 <willcooke> Black dots bug: I tested my theory that the problem is in Compiz and

 15:42 <willcooke> found out for sure that it's at the part that creates the textures for

 15:42 <willcooke> the windows. It can't be in gtk because then the dots would appear in

 15:42 <willcooke> every window manager but I see no issues in XFCE. It's not related to

 15:42 <willcooke> the shadows or the decorations as we initially thought because we still

 15:42 <willcooke> see the problem when the unityshell plugin is disabled. So, to find out

 15:42 <willcooke> what happens in Compiz, I modified the opengl plugin to extract and save

 15:42 <willcooke> the texture of the dot-windows at the time that glDrawTexture is called

 15:42 <willcooke> for the window and right before the texture is send to the GPU and I

 15:42 <willcooke> noticed that the image I write to the disk always has the dots on it

 15:43 <willcooke> (the window textures are created and filled by compiz so, compiz creates

 15:43 <willcooke> the dots). Then, I created and saved images with the window alpha values

 15:43 <willcooke> to see how they vary in the transparent and semi-transparent regions of

 15:43 <willcooke> the window and the images were all white (=> we had no alpha). So, I am

 15:43 <willcooke> debugging the opengl plugin texture mapping parameters and the compiz

 15:43 <willcooke> plugins that modify them to see why the A is ignored in all cases even

 15:43 <willcooke> when we use RGBA, I hope that the fix won't take more than a few days

 15:43 <willcooke> now that I figured out where the problem is and what I have to test

 15:43 <willcooke> exactly. EOF

 15:43 <willcooke> hikiko, bullet points next time please

 15:43 <willcooke> #topic Laney

 15:43 <Laney> • It's been a short week

 15:43 <Laney> • I had broken the release upgrader, so I fixed that

 15:43 <Laney> • Reviewed, travestied and uploaded a Zeitgeist branch from Trevinho to VACUUM every now and again, which speeds up the dash

 15:43 <Laney> • Some yak shaving when my internal mirror started 404ing for directories which existed (srsly)

 15:43 <Laney> • Chatted with IS about appstream screenshot problem - we found a way out!

 15:43 <Laney> • Wrote a little patch for appstream-dep11 to put a "Date" field in the header document, so we can track if server → Launchpad → apt is working right, got some comments from ximion to fix, thanks

 15:43 <Laney> • Backported GDBusProxy memleak fix for wily, just got to dput it... oh I might as well do that. OK it's done.

 15:43 <Laney> • Merged ffmpeg for some reason, I think maybe because I noticed an outstanding security fix?
