19:18 <elfy> no 19:19 <knome> #topic New and emerging items 19:19 <knome> #subtopic Which GTK3 indicators are we going to ship? 19:19 <knome> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/Roadmap/Specifications/Trusty/Gtk3Indicators 19:19 <knome> ochosi wanted -power and -messages in 19:19 <ali1234> ship ALL the indicators! 19:20 <knome> yeah, i was wondering if there is any reason *not* to *ship* them all? 19:20 <ali1234> actally yes there is 19:20 <knome> well go ahead and tell us :) 19:21 <ali1234> -datetime is probably not a good idea because of https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/indicator-datetime/+bug/1074314 19:21 <ubottu> Ubuntu bug 1074314 in indicator-datetime (Ubuntu) "indicator-datetime configuration panel only works in Unity session" [Undecided,Confirmed] 19:21 <ali1234> -session doesn't really work properly with light-locker and xfce-session stuff 19:21 <ali1234> all the others seem okay though 19:22 <knome> okay 19:22 <brainwash_> -power needs to be patched to launch xfce4-power-manager, or? 19:22 <elfy> only got 3 working here - messages/sound and the clock one 19:22 <ali1234> oh and shipping them == having them running in the default setup, unless you blacklist them 19:22 <ali1234> i don't use power (not a laptop) 19:23 <knome> brainwash_, i guess that's the case but afaik there's a fix incoming 19:23 <knome> ali1234, yep, i acknowledge shipping is using :) 19:23 <brainwash_> but aren't the current panel plugins more lightweight and stable? 19:23 <ali1234> not really 19:24 <ali1234> the sound plugin doesn't really work at all with PA, and there is no plugin for indicator-messages or -sync 19:25 <knome> do we want to discuss this further or are we ok? 19:25 <ali1234> bluman is kind of unmaintained now also 19:25 <brainwash_> not talking about the ones which don't have a panel plugin equivalent 19:25 <knome> we're going to need to switch to gtk3 indicators at some point anyway 19:26 <knome> if not for other reasons, to avoid maintaining the whole gtk2 indicator stack 19:26 <ali1234> well ignoring datetime, session, bluetooth, sound, messages... there is not much left really 19:26 <knome> brainwash_, do you know for sure there is some problems with them, or are you just concerned about lightness? 19:26 <ali1234> oh and -application is miles better than the notification plugin which doesn't work properly on dual monitor and never will 19:27 <elfy> doesn't work here ali1234 19:27 <brainwash_> I don't have any numbers 19:27 <knome> elfy, do you have a bug filed? 19:27 <ali1234> elfy: because of that stupid upstart bug. it's being fixed 19:27 <Noskcaj> ali1234, Blueman is semi-active again. https://github.com/cschramm/blueman 19:27 <elfy> ali1234: right ok 19:27 <knome> ali1234, good to know 19:28 <knome> anything else on the subject? 19:28 <ali1234> i talked to tedg about it couple of days ago. apparently he has a plan 19:28 <ali1234> i'll continue to follow up on that 19:28 <knome> ali1234, thanks 19:28 <knome> #action ali1234 follows up on gtk3 indicator status 19:28 * meetingology ali1234 follows up on gtk3 indicator status 19:28 <knome> #subtopic Enabling more people to push to Xubuntu branches 19:28 <sergio-br2> blueman is much better than the bluetooth thing of gnome... will it be change? 19:28 <knome> so, we discussed this briefly with ochosi... 19:28 <sergio-br2> ops, sorry 19:29 <knome> sergio-br2, that's not the question:) 19:29 <knome> currently, only people in -dev can push to xubuntu branches 19:29 <knome> we were wondering if it was possible to allow more people to push into the branches 19:29 <knome> either via creating a new team, like -branches, or assigning them to -team 19:29 <knome> micahg, do you have any insight on this? 19:30 <knome> (are you even around?) 19:30 <elfy> so - -dev is effectively just micahg atm ? 19:30 <knome> elfy, yes 19:30 <Noskcaj> elfy, Yup 19:30 <Noskcaj> And all of core-dev 19:30 <elfy> thought that was the case 19:30 <knome> we're looking to get more people in -dev though, but even then... 19:31 <elfy> yep - it's an issue for sure 19:31 <knome> i mean -team is already moderated, and we have some amount of trust for the members already 19:31 <knome> so we don't expect them to do foolish things with the branches 19:31 * Noskcaj needs a testimonial from knome 19:31 <elfy> knome: I can agree with that 19:32 <slickymaster> +1 19:32 <knome> if -dev members or DMB thinks we can't allow -team to push to branches, we should look at creating a new team which would have push rights, but a bit looser membership requirements than -dev 19:32 <knome> but i guess we need to postpone this, because neither ochosi or micahg are around 19:32 <knome> Noskcaj, i can only give a non-technical one, but i will do that once i have time 19:32 <knome> Noskcaj, (and can clear my thoughts for it) 19:33 <knome> #subtopic Schedule next meeting 19:33 <Noskcaj> knome, ty 19:33 <elfy> knome: maybe set up a specific meeting for you ochosi and micahg - not really something we should leave hanging 19:33 <knome> #info Next meeting Jan 16, 19UTC 19:33 <elfy> and those interested of course 19:33 <knome> elfy, will be in touch with them, but want to get it through the community meeting :) 19:33 <elfy> :) 19:34 <knome> #endmeeting
