Desktop Team Development Meeting, 2007-10-04

[Scott James Remnant]

The team at Canonical responsible for development of the desktop has a
weekly meeting in #ubuntu-meeting; since this team forms part of the
Desktop Team, it seems appropriate to send meeting minutes to this list.

Note that the meeting is public; if you wish to attend, please do (it's
at 1200UTC every Thursday) -- if you have items for the agenda, send
them to me in advance for consideration.

== Present ==

 * Scott James Remnant (Keybuk) - chair
 * Ian Jackson (iwj)
 * Jonathan Riddell (Riddell)
 * Kenneth Wimer (kwwii)
 * Martin Pitt (pitti)
 * Michael Vogt (mvo)
 * Mirco Müller (MacSlow)

 * Matthew Paul Thomas (mpt)

== Agenda ==

 * RC bugs in activity summaries
 * GNOME summit

== RC bugs in activity summaries ==

A reminder was given to everybody that the must include a list of their
assigned Release Critical bugs in their weekly activity summaries.  If
none are assigned, this should be mentioned in the summary rather than
omitting any mention of them.

There was question about how to obtain the list, several suggestions
were proposed.  The easiest two are:

 1. Visit the page for the milestone, e.g.:
    https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+milestone/ubuntu-7.10-rc

 2. Sort by assignee and locate yourself

 3. Repeat for older milestones, moving the bugs forward to the new
    milestone.

And

 1. Visit the Advanced Search form for Ubuntu bugs:
    https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bugs?advanced=1

 2. Enter your username into the Assigned To field

 3. Select the milestones you wish to view.

mpt asked whether a per-user Launchpad page like the existing "package
reports" one, but with totals per milestone would be useful?

ACTION: mpt to propose LP bug tables with totals by milestone (pitti
        can help with our requirements)

ACTION: all to include milestoned bug lists in their activity summaries

== GNOME summit ==

The 2007 GNOME summit is being held in Boston this weekend:

	http://live.gnome.org/Boston2007

A final call was given to find out whether anybody was interested in
attending.  MacSlow expressed some interest, but was concerned that
someone geographically closer might be more appropriate, or someone with
less bugs to attend to (esp. given the short notice).

ACTION: Keybuk to discuss with team leads later, and MacSlow afterwards
