 19:05:02 <charlie-tca> * madnick to test blueman in ppa:micahg/patch-test - Done

 19:05:33 <charlie-tca> I have to say, blueman developers are very response to bugs at this time.

 19:05:35 <charlie-tca> * verify top 10 FAQ and check help links in 10

 19:05:44 <charlie-tca> Has anyone verified these yet?

 19:06:23 <charlie-tca> * docs need a version bump (s/11.04/11.10)

 19:06:29 <charlie-tca> This is done, also

 19:07:10 <charlie-tca> #topic === Team updates ===

 19:07:23 <charlie-tca> #subtopic ==== Packaging & Development ====

 19:07:29 <charlie-tca> mr_pouit: are you available?

 19:08:58 <charlie-tca> micahg: are you available for this update?

 19:09:08 <micahg> I guess so

 19:09:23 <charlie-tca> It's all yours

 19:09:28 <micahg> mr_pouit updated the seed for blueman after I got the updated version in

 19:09:48 <micahg> charlie-tca mentioned we might need to drop a langpack for amd64 live

 19:09:59 <charlie-tca> alternate

 19:10:11 <micahg> charlie-tca: live according to cdimage.u.c

 19:10:22 <micahg> right, you said alternate, but it's actually live

 19:10:50 <micahg> blueman had a couple bugs I"ll try to look at tonight or tomorrow

 19:10:52 <charlie-tca> sorry

 19:11:00 <micahg> charlie-tca: not a problem :)

 19:11:38 <micahg> I'm not aware of any other updates needed before release, please let mr_pouit or I know if you see something we overlooked

 19:11:47 <micahg> ..

 19:12:45 <charlie-tca> bug 437883 which is blueman crashing on login has a fix committed in bzr

 19:12:46 <ubottu> Launchpad bug 437883 in blueman (Ubuntu) "blueman-applet crashed with DBusException in call_blocking()" [High,Fix committed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/437883

 19:13:00 <charlie-tca> Thank you very much, micahg

 19:13:30 <charlie-tca> We now have most of the updates from Xfce for the translations too

 19:13:38 <micahg> charlie-tca: I guess I need to pull a new upstream blueman snapshot

 19:13:52 <charlie-tca> yup

 19:14:15 <micahg> maybe I"ll cherry pick the commit

 19:14:17 <charlie-tca> This week is mostly bug fixing, so we should not see massive changes any more in Oneiric

 19:14:27 <micahg> I'd rather not pull in extraneous changes at this point

 19:14:28 <charlie-tca> That would work too

 19:14:39 <charlie-tca> Yes, the less the better now

 19:15:12 <charlie-tca> Any questions for packaging and development?

 19:15:46 <micahg> charlie-tca: any other ones like that that I should pull in?

 19:15:54 <charlie-tca> None that I know of

 19:16:05 <micahg> ok

 19:16:09 <charlie-tca> That's the only fix I have seen that we haven't gotten yet

 19:16:23 <micahg> charlie-tca: can I give you the package to test later?

 19:16:38 <charlie-tca> Sure, I can test it

 19:16:42 <micahg> thanks

 19:16:49 <charlie-tca> I can't test blueman, but I can test for the crash

 19:17:00 <charlie-tca> #subtopic ==== Bug Triage & Testing ====

 19:17:09 <charlie-tca> We have done great testing our images!

 19:17:17 <charlie-tca> Thank you very much to all the testers

 19:17:32 <charlie-tca> This is the last week we test oneiric daily

 19:18:28 <charlie-tca> Most of the critical for Xubuntu bugs have been fixed, and keeping them at We are tracking the Oneiric bugs at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/Bugs/OneiricOcelot has been a big help.

 19:18:40 <charlie-tca> Any questions for testing?

 19:18:55 <charlie-tca> #subtopic ==== Website & Marketing ====

 19:19:03 <charlie-tca> pleia2: are you available?

 19:19:36 <charlie-tca> knome: any update on the website?

 19:19:42 <pleia2> hi

 19:19:50 <charlie-tca> Hello, pleia2

 19:19:55 <charlie-tca> Any update today?

 19:20:01 <pleia2> a few days ago I copied over some of the content from the live site to our testing wordpress site

 19:20:22 <pleia2> in this process I identified some issues, so knome has submitted a couple patches to the theme and the picslide plugin that canonical will need to pull in

 19:20:36 <pleia2> so we're continuing to work on the content migration as this moves along

 19:20:55 <pleia2> that's about it :)

 19:21:05 <charlie-tca> Thank you very much

 19:21:23 <charlie-tca> I still have hopes we make it for the release :)

 19:21:45 <charlie-tca> #subtopic ==== Artwork ====

 19:21:57 <charlie-tca> ochosi: are you available?

 19:22:31 <charlie-tca> For those using greybird in Oneiric, you might have noticed some small changes, in the scrollbars and panels.

 19:23:23 <charlie-tca> These are to help with those of us that can't see so good anymore, and have less than perfect mouse control

 19:23:33 <charlie-tca> Thank you, ochosi, for that!

 19:23:41 <charlie-tca> Any questions on artwork?

 19:23:59 <charlie-tca> Many thanks also to madnick, we now have the new wallpaper in lightdm.

 19:32:06 <charlie-tca> #topic === Any Other Business ===

 19:32:22 <charlie-tca> This is now an open floor for any other discussion.

 19:33:11 <charlie-tca> I do want to thank everyone who has helped to make Xubuntu 11.10 successful! Your hard work has made this a really good, usable release for our users.

 19:33:41 <charlie-tca> I also want to thank everyone for coming to these meetings. Your participation is what makes Xubuntu strong.

 19:34:05 <charlie-tca> beardygnome, jayson_r : I expect to see reviews of 11.10 from both of you.

 19:34:22 <charlie-tca> plantoschka: I hope you are doing a review also, please.

 19:34:32 <beardygnome> charlie-tca: for the website?

 19:34:33 <charlie-tca> Is there anything else?

 19:34:53 <charlie-tca> beardygnome: sure, we need one for the website.

 19:35:21 <beardygnome> i wasn't sure if i should do one this time

 19:35:36 <charlie-tca> Also, you all have great blogs that need to have reviews posted

 19:35:51 <charlie-tca> pleia2: we can put a review on the website, right?

 19:35:52 <plantoschka> i will definietly do a youtube video

 19:36:29 <beardygnome> cos if there's things i don't like then i don't want to skip them but i don't want to criticise the team either

 19:37:29 <charlie-tca> Criticism that is accurate and helps the team improve is welcome.

 19:37:43 <pleia2> charlie-tca: it's up to the team, right now all we post on our team news page are release announcements and instructions from team members (how to do artwork, etc), we can add a reviews section of the site where we link to reviews, or decide to cross-post reviews we find to our news blog

 19:38:12 <pleia2> I like the idea of a reviews section where we link to reviews because it's a pretty common thing to have

 19:38:16 <charlie-tca> I think a review along with the release notes would be great

 19:38:30 <charlie-tca> Let's do it, then.

 19:39:05 <charlie-tca> For reviewers, final release is October 13, so the reviews should be October 13 or later

 19:39:28 <charlie-tca> or at least real close, since the images are pretty accurate already

 19:39:38 <charlie-tca> Anything else to discuss?

 19:40:05 <charlie-tca> We should welcome touchpad and jayson_r and ElderDryas to the community.

 19:40:19 <charlie-tca> and, of course, anyone else that is new here!

 19:41:20 * zus waves and thanks  everyone

 19:41:31 <charlie-tca> Thank you all for joining in. Please get yourselfs signed up to the users team on launchpad!

 19:41:37 <charlie-tca> #endmeeting
