15:11 * ochosi wasn't involved 15:11 I think the vote has been postponed twice and it doesn't look like we have a quorum today. 15:11 looks like it was knome, pleia2, micahg, and possibly jjfrv8-work involved 15:12 looks like we'll postpone this for next meeting then 15:12 yup 15:12 #subtopic Ideas for using the project money 15:13 another item where we need knome/pleia2 most likely 15:13 but... any thoughts, ideas, etc?

15:17 ok, for artwork... 15:17 our themes have seen new releases today 15:18 exciting news, we re-gained granite support (for elementary-os apps), gtk3.9 support and support for client-side decorations 15:18 so in case people enable the gnome3.10 ppa our themes will not break 15:18 i've sent an email to mr_pouit already requesting the upload before UIF 15:19 cool, want to add some #infos, and give mrpouit an action item? 15:22 oh 15:22 sure 15:22 #nick mr_pouit 15:22 sorry 15:22 :D 15:22 (i'm half-working here) 15:22 #info our themes have seen new releases today 15:22 me too, its cool 15:22 #info exciting news, we re-gained granite support (for elementary-os apps), gtk3.9 support and support for client-side decorations 15:23 #action mr_pouit was asked via email to upload the updated shimmer-themes package to Saucy before UIF 15:23 * meetingology mr_pouit was asked via email to upload the updated shimmer-themes package to Saucy before UIF 15:23 sweet 15:23 for applications... 15:23 #info the latest gmusicbrowser is now in saucy 15:24 #info ochosi and I have been working on a lightdm-gtk-greeter fix for lock/login issues, to be uploaded tonight 15:25 #link https://bugs.launchpad.net/lightdm-gtk-greeter/+bug/1204486 15:25 Ubuntu bug 1204486 in LightDM GTK+ Greeter "Unable to select alternate languages at login screen" [Undecided,Confirmed] 15:26 #info for those wanting to test the lightdm-gtk-greeter fix, read comment #15 on the bugreport 15:26 thanks 15:26 GridCube, how's the DA xubuntu-showcase going? 15:27 haven't looked at it for a while :) 15:27 pretty much stalled 15:27 :( 15:28 we cant reach the objectives 15:28 if we dont start advertising, and we cant start advertising because no one has fullfiled the rules 15:28 mostly licencies problems 15:28 ah 15:28 that's no fun 15:29 we can get users to change their licences, but we hardly cant get a licence for their desktop backgrounds 15:29 wich in many cases is central to the destop setting 15:29 right 15:29 so yeah 15:30 i got a few users to get their permissions and im waiting for knome to have a moment to try and upload the first soon 15:30 i hope 15:30 lets see if after that things move at a better pace 15:30 so 15:31 #info the xubuntu showcase is doing work but it moves slowly 15:31 #action knome and GridCube to join and prepare the first few showcases 15:31 * meetingology knome and GridCube to join and prepare the first few showcases 15:31 cool, hoping to see some momentum on that :) 15:31 :) 15:32 does anybody else have updates? 15:32 #topic Announcements 15:33 I saw the announcement from last week, congrats jjfrv8-work on the extra responsibilities :) 15:33 sorry I'm late 15:33 hey micahg-work! 15:34 Thanks. 15:34 it's okay, we've got myself, ochosi, GridCube, and jjfrv8-work 15:34 We're on announcements, but if you've got any updates, :) 15:35 nope, ochosi's gmb patch still needs uploading (which I should get to tonight) 15:35 oh, which patch is this? 15:36 still need to discuss indicators for saucy 15:36 albuminfo plugin IIRC 15:36 oh cool 15:37 unfortunately, that's about all I'll get to before the weekend unless there's something critical 15:37 what's the status on the indicators for saucy? are we considering using the gtk3 wrapper or discussing broken indicators? 15:37 * bluesabre is behind on updates 15:38 well, I'm not 100% up to date on what's going on 15:38 ochosi: are you more up-to-date? 15:39 well the gtk3 indicators seem stable so far 15:39 if we can get the existing indicators working without too much work or risk, I'd rather do that for saucy and try to land the gtk3 indicator stuff when T opens 15:39 but there hasn't been a release on libxfce4ui or the panel 15:40 if we have no choice, we can either drop indicators for saucy or try to get a freeze exception to push the gtk3 stuff 15:40 imo it doesn't make a huge difference though 15:40 we also ship random snapshots of abiword :) 15:40 :) 15:40 micahg-work, have you seen this? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/indicator-sound/+bug/1208204 15:40 Ubuntu bug 1208204 in indicator-sound (Ubuntu) "indicator-sound no longer functions with xfce4-indicator-plugin" [High,Triaged] 15:40 abiword's not a core DE component ;) 15:41 bluesabre, yeah, that's what we're discussing I think 15:41 can someone please subscribe me 15:41 ok, cool 15:41 will do now 15:41 thanks 15:41 ali1234 did a lot of digging for this 15:41 or at least this bug is half the puzzle 15:42 yeah 15:42 my personal take is that fixing the soundindicator won't go down without a lot of work 15:43 at least that's what ali1234's comments on it suggested 15:43 right, I don't think porting the indicator is worthwhile 15:43 so i think pushing new versions for gtk3 support or dropping indicators are the remaining options 15:43 so, either there's some way to use the gtk2 dbus service 15:43 or one of those 2 options 15:44 gotta run folks 15:44 sorry 15:44 its cool 15:44 any there any other announcements? 15:45 alrighty 15:45 #topic New and emerging items 15:45 #subtopic Schedule next meeting 15:46 I think we should postpone this until there are more of us around 15:46 well, we have beta 2 next week 15:46 ah 15:46 thursday? 15:46 that's why we had the meeting in the first place 15:46 yeah, I think the freeze is Monday for beta 2 now 15:46 do we still need docs uploaded? 15:47 I'm not sure 15:49 jjfrv8-work, are the latest docs in saucy? 15:49 They're about 80% complete. I still have some review to do. 15:50 doc string freeze is thursday 15:50 oops. Looks like I won't make it. 15:51 thursday 21:00 UTC, so I'd suggest pushing as far as we can, then finding someone to upload (I won't be around) 15:51 jjfrv8-work, maybe talk to the release team and the translators to see if we can get more time then 15:51 Ok 15:51 we only have 4 weeks until release 15:52 * micahg-work won't get to some of his pet projects for the cycle either it seems 15:52 Should we schedule a meeting for thursday to try to get a last-minute idea of where we are for beta2? 15:52 I won't be around, but feel free, and leave me notes if something needs to be done before Monday (freeze) 15:52 I can't make Thursday 15:54 you can send updates to the -devel ml before the meeting, we'll pick them up for the meeting 15:54 * micahg-work will brb 15:54 k 15:56 #info next meeting, tentatively scheduled for Thursday, September 19, 1500 UTC 15:56 #action knome to change date/time of next meeting as needed 15:56 * meetingology knome to change date/time of next meeting as needed 15:56 :) 15:57 we'll go ahead and wrap up, I gotta run 15:57 #endmeeting Generated by MeetBot 0.1.5 (http://wiki.ubuntu.com/meetingology)
