15:39 <willcooke> #topic larsu
15:40 <willcooke> (hmm, sure it never did that before ^^^ )
15:40 <larsu> hey. Got distracted by lots of small random stuff this week
15:40 <larsu> like that gnome-terminal thing, some outstanding unity8 status icon things (I'm really annoyed at this point btw)
15:41 <seb128> what's the issue with the unity8 work?
15:41 <seb128> or what's the annoyance?
15:41 <larsu> actual work: fixing our theme. I've updated the todo pad (thanks seb128 for reminding me) to mark blockers and concentrate on those now
15:41 <larsu> as usual, our css is unwieldy so it takes a bit longer :/
15:42 <seb128> :-(
15:42 <larsu> seb128: it was supposed to be a s/StatusIcon/Icon, but it simply doesn't get merged for stupid reasons
15:42 <larsu> like: too long to review has conflicts, bzr messing up a resolve, new StatusIcon things get added, etc
15:42 <larsu> it's not taking much time, it's simply annoying
15:42 <seb128> k
15:42 <seb128> let me know if I can help
15:43 <seb128> or nudge those guys or something
15:43 <larsu> thanks! But should be fine
15:43 * larsu <- end
15:43 <willcooke> thanks larsu

15:45 <willcooke> qengho, how goes?
15:46 <qengho> * a few UOS meetings and Cr update and such.
15:46 <qengho> * ugh: broken X. Using "safe mode" for last two weeks.
15:46 <qengho> * in-progress: Cr GPU blacklist hell. Part of testing new Flash player.
15:46 <qengho> * in-progress: Google-search accounting for Cr doesn't make sense.
15:46 <qengho> * to-do: eventually get back to implementing Mir.
