BTW, sorry, I missed this meeting -- I thought it was Tuesday when it was actually Wednesday already :-/
00:02:03 * | nirik looks around for a epel meeting.
00:03:19 --> | stahnma_ (Michael Stahnke) has joined #fedora-meeting
00:03:43 < stahnma_> | mmcgrath: epel meeting?
00:03:49 --- | stahnma_ is now known as stahnma
00:03:50 < mmcgrath> | nirik: I'm putting out a small fire, if knurd isn't around would you mind hosting the meeting?
00:04:01 < mmcgrath> | stahnma: there's one scheduled today.
00:04:06 < stahnma> | oh ok
00:04:10 < stahnma> | :)
00:04:14 < stahnma> | knurd_afk: you there?
00:04:20 < nirik> | mmcgrath: sure, although we might not have enough folks to bother?
00:04:33 < stahnma> | I'll update ya'll on meta-data
00:04:53 < stahnma> | I have been working on a something that spits out requires/provides/filelisting etc for each rpm
00:05:02 < stahnma> | I am actually surprised repoview doesn't have something like that
00:05:15 < mmcgrath> | nirik: we've got 3, I think that'll work for a quick one :)
00:05:18 --- | nirik has changed the topic to: EPEL SIG Meeting | RHEL MetaData | stahnma | http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL/Tasks/RhelMetaData
00:05:33 < nirik> | stahnma: cool.
00:05:40 <-- | jnettlet has quit (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
00:05:52 < nirik> | will you be putting that up in a fedorapeople area? or somewhere else we can query it?
00:06:13 --> | jnettlet (Jon Nettleton) has joined #fedora-meeting
00:06:34 < stahnma> | Yes, in fedorapeople
00:06:36 < stahnma> | I think
00:06:49 < nirik> | ok, cool. Any ETA?
00:07:04 < stahnma> | Not sure, I was hoping to have it done today, but that didn't happen
00:07:16 < stahnma> | maybe next coupel weeks. Holidays screw up schedules
00:07:20 < nirik> | yeah...
00:07:27 < nirik> | ok, anything else on this topic?
00:08:27 < nirik> | ok, shall we move on?
00:08:41 --- | nirik has changed the topic to: EPEL SIG Meeting | KojiAndBodhiForEpel
00:08:58 < nirik> | mmcgrath: any news on this? or come back to it later in the meeting when you have more time?
00:09:17 < mmcgrath> | nirik: the wheels are in motion to try to get funding for an intern but nothing concrete yet.
00:09:34 < nirik> | would it be worth adding as a wishlist for a google summer of code thing?
00:09:50 < nirik> | or too much/complicated for that?
00:10:24 --> | smooge (Stephen J Smoogen) has joined #fedora-meeting
00:10:47 < mmcgrath> | possibly, I'd rather try the intern route first.
00:10:57 < nirik> | http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/SummerOfCode/2008/Ideas
00:11:04 < nirik> | yeah, sounds good.
00:11:18 < nirik> | anything else here? or move on?
00:11:37 --> | J5 (John (J5) Palmieri) has joined #fedora-meeting
00:11:59 < mmcgrath> | nothing here
00:12:05 --- | nirik has changed the topic to: EPEL SIG Meeting | RHEL 5.1 (and 4.6) for the builders
00:12:09 < nirik> | thats done now, right?
00:12:18 < mmcgrath> | both of those are done.
00:12:51 < stahnma> | so future upgrades. Will we always wait for CentOS?
00:13:01 < stahnma> | that's fine, I just kind of wanted an outline
00:13:09 < mmcgrath> | Good question.
00:13:19 < mmcgrath> | I'd rather not tie ourselves to that but I think its a good idea.
00:13:31 < stahnma> | that's kind of how I view it
00:13:39 < stahnma> | most of our developers are on CentOS
00:13:48 * | nirik gets a phone call... sorry
00:14:39 < stahnma> | is that all we have on builders?
00:14:41 < nirik> | I think it's a good idea to wait for centos.
00:14:51 < stahnma> | yeah, I think it has critical mass
00:14:57 < stahnma> | I am not about other RHEL clones
00:14:58 < mmcgrath> | it's probably best to just let the SIG decide per release.
00:15:02 < stahnma> | ok
00:15:13 < nirik> | another issue related here: updates for builders?
00:15:27 < nirik> | would it be hard to get them to pull updates into the buildroot ?
00:15:33 < mmcgrath> | nirik: ? As in the craziness that has been this last week?
00:15:49 < nirik> | no, as in RHEL updates added to the buildroots for builds.
00:16:01 < mmcgrath> | oh oh.
00:16:19 < nirik> | or should we talk more on list. I am not sure I understand the Z-stream stuff that was mentioned.
00:16:35 < mmcgrath> | If we decide thats what we want to do we'll also have to figure out a way to do it. Right now going from RHEL5 -> 5.1 involved me downloading the DVD's, copying RPM's over and running createrepo.
00:16:36 --> | JSchmitt (Jochen Schmitt) has joined #fedora-meeting
00:17:39 < nirik> | yeah, we would need a rhn subscription or something and some jobs to move things. ;(
00:17:52 < nirik> | ok, will talk more on list about it... I think it's a good idea if we can do it...
00:18:07 < mmcgrath> | k
00:18:09 < nirik> | anything more here?
00:18:21 * | mmcgrath has nothing
00:18:26 --- | nirik has changed the topic to: EPEL SIG Meeting | update http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL/GuidelinesAndPolicies
00:18:42 < nirik> | I updated the page... if everyone could look and correct/add/modify, feel free.
00:19:10 < mmcgrath> | will do.
00:19:20 * | stahnma pulls it up
00:19:25 --- | nirik has changed the topic to: EPEL SIG Meeting | Free discussion around EPEL
00:19:31 < nirik> | anything else anyone would like to bring up?
00:19:44 < stahnma> | anything planned on EPEL at FUDcon?
00:19:44 <-- | petreu has quit (Connection reset by peer)
00:19:58 < stahnma> | also, it's great to see so many new packages in EPEL lately
00:20:03 --> | petreu (Peter Reuschlein) has joined #fedora-meeting
00:20:14 < nirik> | yeah, knurd's ping of people got a lot of packages moving.
00:20:40 < nirik> | we could do a EPEL meeting at fudcon... perhaps a 'Fedora maintainers intro to EPEL' ?
00:21:03 * | mmcgrath is all for EPEL.
00:21:07 < mmcgrath> | err Fudcon + epel.
00:21:13 * | stahnma still needs a roomate
00:21:28 < nirik> | I am still working on getting munin in... need some more perl deps. Will probibly start on Xfce over the holidays too.
00:21:35 < stahnma> | cool
00:22:01 * | nirik should ask his boss about fudcon plans... she was going to make reservations/travel, but I haven't heard anything yet.
00:23:08 < stahnma> | that's all I have
00:23:10 * | Jeff_S pops his head in
00:23:17 < nirik> | anyone want to run a EPEL fudcon thing? ie, sign up for a room, etc?
00:23:40 <-- | jnettlet has quit ("Ex-Chat")
00:23:47 < mmcgrath> | nirik: I'll be there to discuss if I can but I already have two other sessions I'm holding.
00:23:49 < stahnma> | If I confirm that I am going, I will do that
00:24:01 < stahnma> | I just need to verify costs/find a roomate
00:24:15 < nirik> | cool.
00:24:46 < nirik> | anything else EPEL related anyone?
00:24:51 * | mmcgrath has nothing.
00:25:01 * | stahnma is good
00:25:14 < nirik> | ok, thanks everyone...
00:25:17 < stahnma> | thanks
00:25:20 <-- | stahnma has left #fedora-meeting ( "Time for something else....")
