[14:00:57] <wiesand> Hi
[14:01:20] <meffie> hello
[14:05:48] <wiesand> I expected a very quiet meeting...
[14:06:59] <mvita> oops, sorry
[14:07:03] <mvita> was distracted
[14:07:18] <wiesand> From what ;-)
[14:07:24] <mvita> how are you, Stephan?
[14:07:33] <wiesand> Fine, how are you?
[14:07:42] <mvita> distracted ;-)
[14:08:05] <mvita> we have a mtg just before this and changing gears sometimes doesn't happen smoothly
[14:08:21] <wiesand> I don’t think there’s an awful lot to discuss today anyway.
[14:08:52] <mvita> we are making progress on linux stuff but I don't have any details to report out yet.
[14:09:05] <mvita> Joe is back and working on 4.4 and 4.5
[14:09:10] <wiesand> Ok, good news.
[14:09:18] <mvita> I have some 4.6 and 4.7 stuff I'll be sharing with him today
[14:09:25] <meffie> and 4.6
[14:09:37] <wiesand> Good.
[14:09:54] <wiesand> NB 4.6 was released a couple of weeks ago.
[14:10:02] <mvita> yes.
[14:10:04] <wiesand> They released 4.6.2 today.
[14:10:33] <wiesand> There seemed to be some confusion about thet last week.
[14:10:46] <mvita> I know a few things needed for building that, but haven't actually tried building it yet myself
[14:10:50] <mvita> (4.6)
[14:11:32] <mvita> so we are catching up but aren't yet where we need to be
[14:11:57] <mvita> the pace of linux is blistering
[14:12:46] <wiesand> ~250 *new* developers involved in each release
[14:12:49] <wiesand> every two months
[14:12:59] <mvita> NEVER TELL ME THE ODDS!
[14:13:36] <wiesand> ok, won’t
[14:13:41] <mvita> heh
[14:14:34] <mvita> Ben can't join us today and the 1.8 list is out of date again, so I've got nothing new to discuss for that
[14:15:04] <mvita> now that Joe is back we should be able to know soon about what can be ready for 1.6.18.1
[14:15:21] <wiesand> Yes, I think we’re blocked on Ben.
[14:15:53] <wiesand> That would be good. I think we should release it even if it only fixes 4.5
[14:16:00] <mvita> for 1.6.19, I have not had a chance to look at candidates for this week.
[14:16:14] <mvita> agreed even if only 4.5
[14:16:35] <wiesand> 1.6.19 seems hardly urgent
[14:16:45] <mvita> I have not heard any 4.5 issues (other than the false alarm last week)
[14:17:10] <wiesand> Yes, I’d take that mail as a success report regarding the 4.5 patches in gerrit.
[14:17:31] <meffie> ./regen.sh is your friend
[14:17:39] <mvita> for now, and for always
[14:17:57] <wiesand> that’s kind of insider knowledge though
[14:18:09] <mvita> so I suppose you could pull the 4.5 build fixes into a 1.6.18.1 rc branch to get started
[14:18:29] <wiesand> well, not before they’re merged on master
[14:18:40] <mvita> oh, yeah, that.
[14:18:47] <mvita> I'm getting ahead of myself
[14:19:16] <wiesand> But I’ll verify that they don’t break EL5/6/7 clients.
[14:19:42] <wiesand> And we’re still waiting for a PS2 for 12239
[14:19:45] <mvita> meffie, did Joe test them under 6 or 7?
[14:20:03] <mvita> oh, yeah 12239, I meant to bring that up.
[14:20:09] <mvita> I'll ping marcio
[14:20:55] <wiesand> Thanks
[14:22:38] <meffie> i think joe is using a real disto (debian)
[14:22:52] <mvita> marcio is blocked on that at the moment, but will be back to it as soon as he gets a vm for testing
[14:23:14] <mvita> he's gonna bug our IT guy for it now.
[14:23:47] <mvita> heh, I just got the "real disto" dig
[14:24:09] <wiesand> I smoke test anything on EL5/6/7 before even merging changes anyway.
[14:24:13] <mvita> yes, that's right, no RH/Centos at all
[14:24:22] <wiesand> So, no problem.
[14:25:06] <mvita> stephan I thought you were going to be out this week too?
[14:25:13] <mvita> but I'm glad you're here.
[14:25:31] <wiesand> No, it was just last Wednesday & Thursday
[14:25:51] <mvita> oh, I didn't mean to step on your toes for the meeting notice
[14:25:59] <mvita> I thought you were out this week as well
[14:25:59] <wiesand> Sorry for being fuzzy on that
[14:26:09] <wiesand> No, thanks a lot for beating me to that ;-)
[14:27:22] <mvita> my apologies - the confusion was all on my end, I'm sure.
[14:27:50] <wiesand> Don’t be nervous about stepping on my toes.
[14:28:18] <mvita> okay, I'll remember
[14:28:29] <mvita> tx
[14:29:34] <wiesand> I sympathize with Ben. Moving house is terrible.
[14:29:50] <mvita> yes.
[14:30:37] <mvita> anything else for today? I can't think of anything we haven't mentioned.
[14:30:46] <wiesand> Nor can I
[14:30:55] <mvita> (other than the unmentionable ;-) )
[14:30:57] <meffie> i have nothing (but todos)
[14:31:47] <wiesand> The unmentionable is not worrying me too much either
[14:32:21] <wiesand> So, adjourn?
[14:32:22] <meffie> maybe it can just be rolled into 1.6.19.
[14:32:33] <mvita> yes, adjourn
[14:32:34] <meffie> have a good evening.
[14:32:40] <mvita> tx
[14:32:54] <wiesand> Thanks, and bye.
