MotuCouncil: The TB will decide on members. dholbach will only do some suggestions, with no binding character. The MotuCouncil gets the power to approve members of ubuntu-dev delegated by the TB. The TB will be informed by email and the account gets created. This means that the TB will no longer decide on account creation. There is general agreement that this procedure can cause confusion by outsiders and should really be presented clearly.
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CodeReviewSLA describes a process to prepare new packages in a bzr branch on launchpad. That way, reviewers can directly help with package and teamwork is improved. New packages should be presented from now on as said in the spec: Upload it to a bzr branch, and get it reviewed there. Use the --unchanged bzr option if you want to comment but no changes are to be committed Merges: We are lagging badly. Some people pointed out that we need to coordinate to avoid duplicate work. The discussion didn't come up with results, it was deferred to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Packages that exist in debian, but are taken from some other source should be clearly marked as such. The exact procedure for that will be discussed on the mailing list. siretart will write up a proposal for introducing an X- field in debian/control to the motu mailing list. Freeze Dates: universe will keep the same dates as Main. cf. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FeistyReleaseSchedule Important bugs opened in debian and probably still in ubuntu. A list was posted in https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2006-December/023034.html. It is unclear how this list is calculated, and how often this list is updated. Keybuk is asked to clarify on these points. We will do a 3 day revu sprint, which means constant revu'ing! MOTUSchool: sistpoty suggested to make a school session during the 3 day revu sprint. Ideas include: 22:27:49 < dholbach> * packaging libraries 22:27:52 < dholbach> * updating packages 22:28:02 < sistpoty> I guess I could do some q&a-session during revu days, showing some common mistakes and how to fix them 22:28:05 < dholbach> * regular(!) q-a sessions 22:28:08 < nixternal> * nixternal proofing packaging 22:28:42 < siretart> * merging packages 22:28:51 < dholbach> * introduction to bzr 22:28:52 < siretart> * importing packages to the bazaar 22:28:57 < dholbach> hehe 22:29:05 < crimsun_> * universe SRU (-proposed/updates) and security errata (-security) 22:29:30 < sistpoty> * universe UVF-exceptions 22:29:31 < ajmitch> * dealing with Debian 22:29:43 < minghua> * read MoM outputs If anyone thinks he can take one topic, feel free to take it and announce the date when you want to hold it on our mailing list. Next Meeting: The next meeting will happen on Friday, Jan 12, 2007 12:00 UTC, unless something else is decided on the mailing list.
