<slangasek> ah, we're to me already :) 15:19 <slangasek> * LinuxCon, Linux Plumbers Conference, UEFI Plugfest 15:19 <slangasek> * kudos to jodh and xnox for their presentations at the conference; they led to a number of good discussions about some easy wins that would help folks trying to use upstart in the wild 15:19 <slangasek> * lots of work on UEFI/SecureBoot: fixes to shim netboot support (v4 and v6), merged upstream and landed in saucy, RT filed to get this submitted to SysDev and signed by MS 15:19 <slangasek> * learned that edk2's FAT driver is non-free, overlooked a license addendum when preparing the package the first time around; now moved to non-free in Debian and mulitverse in Ubuntu, so qemu doesn't get to depend on it 15:19 <slangasek> * poking at the system-image test suite to try to work around the behavior of ubuntu-download-manager, apparently it's really hard to run a test suite when your test http server takes 2 minutes to timeout open connections 15:19 <slangasek> * today: beta release notes 15:19 <slangasek> (done) 15:19 <slangasek> any questions? 15:20 <slangasek> [TOPIC] Final Beta 15:20 <slangasek> so the release notes are always the bit that gets done last 15:21 <barry> the python 3.3 release note looks fine 15:21 <slangasek> those of you who still have time left in your day today, please take a little of that time to help get the ISO testing bugs from http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/303/builds documented in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SaucySalamander/ReleaseNotes 15:22 <slangasek> and if there are cool things that we've added in saucy that you think should also be there, please add them as well! 15:23 <doko> I don't think toolchain bits are cool enough 15:23 <slangasek> doko: you want to upload gcc 4.8 to make it cooler? :) 15:23 <doko> slangasek, xnox wants me to fix one more thing ... 15:23 <slangasek> [TOPIC] AOB 15:24 <slangasek> anything else here? 15:24 <slangasek> did anyone think of a topic they'd like to present on today? 15:24 <xnox> doko++ =) 15:24 <barry> xnox: that's actually ++doko 15:25 <doko> just keep fixing build failures ... 15:25 <doko>

of proposed-migration as can be done would help too 15:26 <cjwatson> one thing I forgot to mention: I changed proposed-migration so that the excuses are sorted by age (well, at one-day granularity, and alphabetically within that) 15:27 <cjwatson> so when you're trying to clear out long-standing entries, you can more easily ignore noise from things uploaded recently 15:27 <cjwatson> I find things sort of in the middle are usually the most fertile ground 15:27 <slangasek> oh, nice! 15:29 <slangasek> #endmeeting
