19:38:54 <popey> welcome..

19:39:18 <popey> reviews: https://code.launchpad.net/ubuntu-clock-app/+activereviews
19:39:26 <popey> bugs: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-clock-app/+bugs
19:39:32 <popey> for reference
19:39:54 <nik90> I have marked certain things as Blocked until we get feedback about the platform API for stuff like the Alarm backend and location API.
19:39:55 <popey> i realise we spoke already on the design catch up..
19:40:01 <nik90> yup
19:40:02 <popey> ok, excellent
19:40:08 <popey> any issues we need to raise?
19:40:31 <nik90> cant think of any, but I have a question regarding use of Online API
19:40:36 <popey> ok
19:40:59 <nik90> I have found an online website which returns the sunrise/sunset time when you send it the location (lat, long)
19:41:16 <nik90> let me find the link
19:41:30 <nik90> http://www.earthtools.org/
19:41:50 <popey> nice
19:42:08 <nik90> I am not sure as to using it...in the sense that we are going to use this for commercial purposes and not personal use
19:42:22 <popey> do they have an API?
19:42:26 <nik90> some website impose restriction on commercial use..and I am not sure if this is reliable
19:42:33 <nik90> yeah they have an API
19:42:35 <popey> if so they'd likely have an acceptable use policy
19:43:29 <nik90> ok, and we can also do some caching on our end
19:44:27 <nik90> I'll try to get something working this weekend
19:44:44 <nik90> for the location, I will give it a static location until we can use the GPS data from the platform api
19:45:26 <nik90> http://www.earthtools.org/webservices.htm
19:45:27 <popey> yeah, we are pushing for a solution to the location detection stuf
19:45:33 <popey> it's nearly there
19:45:35 <nik90> lists the services they offer
19:45:36 <nik90> nice
19:47:24 <nik90> I am mean while writing up autopilot tests while we wait on stuff. We might need to move some goals to the next month since Nick and others are busy with their jobs
19:47:37 <mhall119> hi guys!
19:47:37 <nik90> so at the moment its just me, alessandro and Renato working on the clock
19:47:41 <nik90> hi mhall119
19:48:43 <mhall119> so, I just want to saw we're really impressed with the work you guys have done, and how well organized you've been
19:49:22 <nik90> thnx :)
19:49:26 <popey> +1
19:49:36 <mhall119> popey and I would like to turn over some of the administrative responsibility for the clock team to you guys, by promoting you to admins in ~ubuntu-clock-dev
19:49:51 <popey> +∞ in fact
19:50:04 <mhall119> this will let you manage the ubuntu-clock-app project on Launchpad, and also lets you recruit and add new members to the team
19:50:18 <nik90> oh ok..
19:51:03 <nik90> I think we should add renato to the clock-app dev since he is contributing a lot with autopilot and MP reviews
19:51:19 <mhall119> the only thing is, you will need to make sure any new contributors have signed the CLA, like you guys did when you joined
19:51:47 <mhall119> so before you land any code from them, or add them to the team, they will need to sign https://forms.canonical.com/contributor/
19:52:03 <mhall119> once they've signed the form, msm will add them to this team on Launchpad: https://launchpad.net/~contributor-agreement-canonical/+members
19:52:11 <mhall119> after that, you can accept any contributions from them
19:52:22 <nik90> ok
19:52:38 <mhall119> and remember that people don't need to be team members to contribute code
19:52:41 <nik90> who should they add as the canonical project manager or contact?
19:53:02 <mhall119> but if they have consistently made good contributions, and you trust their judgement doing code reviews, then by all means ask them to join the team
19:53:05 <popey> me
19:53:08 <mhall119> popey
19:53:09 <mhall119> :)
19:53:39 <nik90> but the code merge will be done only after they sign the agreement
19:53:39 <mhall119> popey and I will still be around and involved with you guys, but we're going to be spending more time on projects that aren't as far ahead as yours
19:53:46 <popey> yes
19:53:49 <nik90> ok
19:53:54 <mhall119> nik90: there's nothing technically stopping jenkins from landing their code
19:54:02 <mhall119> so you'll need to check before approving their MP
19:54:17 <nik90> ok
19:55:21 <nik90> we might have an issue..I dont think alessandro has signed the agreement even though his code is in the trunk
19:55:45 <popey> we need to get him to sign it then
19:55:50 <mhall119> do you know his launchpad username?
19:55:53 <popey> and we can accept his past contributions
19:55:55 <nik90> I can ask him to do that
19:56:01 <nik90> his launchpad id is signor-hyde
19:56:54 <popey> right, he isnt in the team
19:56:57 <mhall119> yeah, doesn't look like he has
19:57:05 <mhall119> so yes, we really need to get him to sign the CLA
19:57:25 <nik90> I keep in touch with him through #ubuntu-phone-clock and email. I will ask him immediately to do so
19:57:38 <mhall119> thanks nik90
19:59:13 <nik90> anything else?
19:59:25 <popey> I didn't have anything else
19:59:52 <mhall119> so who are we making admins initially?
19:59:52 <popey> Just keep doing what you're doing! :D
20:00:40 <nik90> I am guessing that was addressed to popey
20:00:58 <popey> no ☻
20:01:12 <mhall119> well, both of you
20:01:30 <popey> ok, I am happy for nik90 to make that decision.
20:01:39 <popey> It makes sense for there to be more than one admin of the team
20:01:41 <popey> not just one
20:01:46 <popey> so there's no bottleneck
20:01:53 <mhall119> ok, nik90 is an admin now
20:02:02 <nik90> I just got the notification
20:02:53 <nik90> mhall119: frals and Riussi are away at the moment...however they have contributed a lot to clock-app as well
20:03:13 <mhall119> nik90: well you're an admin now, so you can promote others
20:03:17 <nik90> may be once they come back I can ask them if they want to be admins as well
20:03:20 <nik90> ok
20:03:42 <popey> that would be great, thanks
20:03:46 <mhall119> thanks nik90
20:04:27 <nik90> alrite..will keep you updated on new stuff
20:04:33 <popey> thanks
20:04:36 <popey> ok, lets wrap
20:04:42 <popey> have a great weekend nik90
