qwazixhello19:58
qwazixI might disappear abruptly because I'm in a dentist's waiting lounge19:59
Win7Machi!20:01
DocScrutinizer05hi!20:02
DocScrutinizer05I may suddenly lose consciousness20:02
DocScrutinizer05;-D20:02
qwazixhahaha20:03
DocScrutinizer05not funny, just unlikely - thank God20:03
DocScrutinizer05I'd fall on the kbd and spam the channel with random noise20:04
DocScrutinizer05so it seems I still have a mail to send, to ML, eh?20:07
qwazixoops sorry, I though you where joking. I really hope you don't.20:09
chem|sthi20:10
chem|stsry for being late...20:10
Win7Macyeah, Doc, send a mail to ML please20:11
DocScrutinizer05np, we haven't started it seems20:12
DocScrutinizer05hi chem|st20:12
Win7Macor simply accept the nomination from juiceme20:12
chem|stmy last weeks AWOL was due to a shortnotice travel through europe (funeral)20:12
DocScrutinizer05brilliant idea20:12
* merlin1991 is around aswell20:12
chem|stany topics today apart of that we need a meeting on sunday?20:13
DocScrutinizer05meeting on sunday?20:13
chem|stwell we can always postpone...20:14
DocScrutinizer05well, seems deadline for nomination period approaching pretty fast20:14
chem|stif you accept we have 2...20:14
DocScrutinizer05sorry, what you're talking about?20:14
chem|stI updated wiki entries btw20:15
DocScrutinizer05did i miss a mail or what?20:15
chem|stthe same you are talking about - nominations20:15
Win7Macwe have 4!20:15
Win7Macinl. Doc20:15
Win7Machttp://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?p=1388268#post138826820:16
chem|styou really count people on tmo unable to send a proper mail to ML? "Please everybody, don't forget to post on the mailing list too! That's the official channel for nominations.20:18
DocScrutinizer05when I assume you're talking about nomination deadline: we don't need a special meeting for that. You simply go thru the nominations, check the karma, and officially announce who validly applied and what will follow from this20:18
DocScrutinizer05seems our ML has hickup - nothing unheard20:18
chem|styeah the follow from this is actually of concern20:18
DocScrutinizer05in prior elections we asked them to resend and CC council20:18
Win7Macwe have 3 valid nominations to ML20:19
chem|stdate and time of the second?20:19
Win7Machttp://lists.maemo.org/pipermail/maemo-community/2013-November/thread.html20:19
chem|styeah found it...20:20
Win7Macall good20:20
chem|stmakes 3 till now20:20
Win7Mac+ Doc20:20
chem|stwith doc...20:21
DocScrutinizer05the idiot who offered to do another sentence20:21
chem|styeah hickup...20:21
DocScrutinizer05;-P20:21
Win7Macnieldk, juiceme, jcharpak20:22
chem|stif need be you turn down and I step up...20:22
DocScrutinizer05yep, that's what I think, and chainsawbike, I guess20:22
Win7Macwhere did chainsawbike self-nominate?20:23
chem|st*facepalm*20:23
DocScrutinizer05at least here in channel20:24
DocScrutinizer05might need manual karma recalculation20:24
Win7Macthen remind him quick to send mail ASAP20:24
DocScrutinizer05you just did20:25
Win7Macchainsawbike is not on the List of eligible candidates: http://wiki.maemo.org/Community_Council/Council_election_Q4_2013/Eligible_candidates20:25
Win7Mac:(20:25
chem|stWin7Mac: karma manual calculate...20:26
DocScrutinizer05that's because he's short on karma which might have changed most recently20:26
Win7Macit's not up to date though20:26
chem|stthe list is not20:26
DocScrutinizer05he has quite a number of wiki edits20:26
DocScrutinizer05and I dunno how many Itt thanks and posts he will have at end of nomination period20:27
Win7Mac... which is tomorrow20:27
DocScrutinizer05*shrug*20:27
DocScrutinizer05I gathered a 140 thanks a day recently20:27
DocScrutinizer05;-P20:27
DocScrutinizer05and I seem to recall days where I had >20 posts20:28
DocScrutinizer05you're free to query him and ask him what's his plans20:28
DocScrutinizer05I can't - I'm *really* busy, and not even at kbd tomorrow20:29
chem|stone thing I want to note officially: we have people returning to tmo cause of jolla - any reason we are doing nothing to the announced successor of n900 and n9 (media is calling it that noth Jolla Oy)20:29
DocScrutinizer05doing nothing?20:30
DocScrutinizer05what do you want to do?20:30
DocScrutinizer05again rename the domain?20:30
thedead1440_I would suggest a simply rename from the stupid Jolla the other half of tmo sub forum to Jolla + the other half or just jolla20:31
thedead1440_S/simply/simple20:31
DocScrutinizer05I'd recommend not to do that - you're free to do whatever else you think is needed inside TMO, AIUI20:31
DocScrutinizer05(that == domain name change)20:32
thedead1440_Indeed also can we have a sub - forum for neo90020:32
Win7Macthedead1440, good idea, both20:33
thedead1440_I volunteer being mod for neo900 sub-forum if it's created. Wouldn't mind doing the same for Jolla but as of now the noise it produces is too much even for me to handle alone20:33
chem|styeah will add neo... got to run!20:35
thedead1440_I wouldn't be surprised to see the applications sub-forum being filled with sailfishos apps so I think a distinction needs to be made of sailfishos and Jolla apps, themes etc remaining inside their sub-forum20:35
DocScrutinizer05wait, will thread/post number URLs stay stable when moving around a thread?20:35
thedead1440_Doc yup20:35
DocScrutinizer05ok then20:35
qwazixI also agree on both counts20:36
thedead1440_Otherwise a lot of threads would be broken with the frequent moving done by me :D20:36
DocScrutinizer05hehe20:36
chem|stDocScrutinizer05: the whole site stays stable even with changing talk.maemo.org to upyourass.com20:36
qwazixand I also agree with doc no domain change is required20:36
chem|stwho talked about domain change?20:36
DocScrutinizer05no domain name changes ever, for anything, best case you get *additional* CNAMEs20:36
thedead1440_qwazix: +1. Nobody in their right mind will suggest domain change so it's a pretty safe thing ...20:37
qwazixokay20:37
thedead1440_Of course fanboys will persist but then these are idiots found everywhere :D20:37
Win7Maci always found the category applications subpar, you never knew if it was for n900 or N9...20:37
DocScrutinizer05ack20:37
Win7Macsame for sailfish then...20:37
chem|stI am out guys... I setup talk to welcome jolla freaks... we could have a community repo or other things...20:38
thedead1440_Win7Mac: indeed20:38
DocScrutinizer05since all that doesn't show up in bookmarks, I don't mind20:38
DocScrutinizer05(community repo) no problem when you find a maintainer for that20:39
chem|styeah applications gets annoying lately20:39
DocScrutinizer05close it20:39
thedead1440_Actually speaking of repos I was thinking of asking openrepos to have some sort of merge but it's too messy for a proper solution...20:39
chem|stbb o/20:39
qwazixyep, I never know where to post...20:40
DocScrutinizer05open new sub-subforums in the according $device or $os sub-forums20:40
qwazixbut some apps are cross platform20:40
DocScrutinizer05chem|st: o720:40
DocScrutinizer05o/ even20:40
thedead1440_Understandably some people are wary of openrepos due to it being owned by a private person and they would prefer the sanctity of a community run repo but finding a common solution eludes me20:40
qwazixobs20:41
DocScrutinizer05our server infra has some headroom yet20:41
Win7Maccan't those cross platform apps be linked in both subcategories?20:41
DocScrutinizer05nice idea but up to mods to do that20:42
qwazixWin7Mac: sounds difficult20:42
thedead1440_DocScrutinizer05: s/mods/chemist/20:42
thedead1440_;)20:42
DocScrutinizer05vB interface doesn't support that20:42
DocScrutinizer05so *users* can't - and honestly would only abuse it20:43
qwazixI guessed so...20:43
Win7Macah-hmh...20:43
thedead1440_If only there were mods who let cross platform apps remain in applications sub-forum while moving the rest to their right place...20:43
qwazixbetter idea: rename "applications" to "cross-platform applications"20:44
qwazixso that it's clear that apps go under their respective OS/device, except cross platform ones20:44
Win7Macsounds good to me20:45
thedead1440_Yup20:45
DocScrutinizer05either that, or simply accept that you post to $sailfish "now also available for sailfish: ACME frubbler! see fremantle-apps thread 23624782616"20:45
thedead1440_I would suggest closing the current applications sub-forum to new threads and creating a new sub+forum for cross platform apps20:46
DocScrutinizer05but then, there actually might be apps which are generically platform independent, like python apps20:46
qwazixis there an ACME frubbler for fremantle?20:46
DocScrutinizer05yes20:46
qwazix:P20:46
DocScrutinizer05yes20:47
DocScrutinizer05:-P20:47
thedead1440_If any app from fremantle is now available for Sailfish, it can be moved into this sub-forum with a 7day redirect20:47
DocScrutinizer05haven't you tried it yet? it's awesome20:47
* qwazix fires HAM and then dies from old age20:47
DocScrutinizer05XP20:47
thedead1440_Haha20:48
DocScrutinizer05qwazix: ACME frubbler comes with a cloak function20:48
DocScrutinizer05I heard it recently is flawed since that cloak is enabled by default20:48
DocScrutinizer05so in HAM it might hide under an arbitrary other name20:49
Win7Macapropos cloak... nothing happened20:49
DocScrutinizer05yep20:49
qwazixI heard that it actually makes HAM faster but you'd have to install all apps with HAM to find out20:49
DocScrutinizer05I'm evetually sending a mail to frenode to reclaim the channel20:49
qwazix(not enough time in the universe)20:50
DocScrutinizer05ok, it's Friday :-)20:50
DocScrutinizer05sorry for OT20:51
Win7Macpinged chainsawbike, but he seems not present ATM20:51
DocScrutinizer05freenode staff instructed me to first send a mail with the facts, then we go and sort the legal mabojambo20:51
DocScrutinizer05I'll CC board and council on that mail20:52
Win7Macthanks Doc!20:52
DocScrutinizer05final GC application will need approval from board20:52
Win7MacGC?20:52
DocScrutinizer05Group Contact, what x-fade is now for Nokia20:53
DocScrutinizer05& maemo20:53
DocScrutinizer05legal owner of a name tells freenode whom to use as contact point20:53
DocScrutinizer05Nokia told freenode to use x-fade as contact point for maemo*20:54
Win7Macah ok20:54
DocScrutinizer05I'll point to maemo handover from Nokia to community, and ask for ownership transfer to HF and picking warfare and me as GC, unless HF has objections20:55
DocScrutinizer05of course I'll CC x-fade20:55
DocScrutinizer05if I do anything before next millenium20:56
DocScrutinizer05terribly busy20:56
DocScrutinizer05of course you're free to draft such mail and send it to me to sign and send it, I even may provide the chat log with freenode staff20:57
DocScrutinizer05so you have the basics to refer to20:57
Win7Maci could, but it'd have a terrible wording as I actually don't know what I'm talking about ;)21:00
DocScrutinizer05damn, I don't  have original ML mail of Neil nielsen nominating me (frikken hiccup)21:02
Win7Machttp://lists.maemo.org/pipermail/maemo-community/2013-November/005919.html21:02
Win7Macit was juiceme21:02
DocScrutinizer05Win7Mac: it's pretty simple - Nokia assigned x-Fade alias niels Breet for GroupContact of maemo*. Since maemo got transferred to community (nice wording, lots of references to evidence) we ask freenode to consider transferring IRC ownership of maemo* Group to HF and nominate DocScrutinizer05 and warfare as GC21:04
DocScrutinizer05(juiceme) don't have that either21:05
DocScrutinizer05meh, i'll respond to the response, which funny enough arrived21:05
DocScrutinizer05(and no, it's not in my spam folder)21:05
Win7Macwant me to forward the original?21:06
Win7Macat least i got the mail...21:06
DocScrutinizer05sent ML21:08
Win7MacYAY!21:09
DocScrutinizer05chainsawbike: please utter what's your plans regarding nomination and council membership21:13
chainsawbikei intend to nominate myself this-evening (what time (zone) is nominations closing?21:15
Win7Mac2013/11/30 23:59 (GMT)21:16
Win7Mac(tomorrow evening)21:16
Win7Macin which country are you?21:17
chainsawbikenew zealand (gmt +12 )21:18
DocScrutinizer05you got 2plenty of time still"21:22
DocScrutinizer05s/2/"/.21:22
DocScrutinizer05like, 28h21:22
DocScrutinizer052721:23
Win7Macnot exactly plenty, but... hopefully enough21:23
DocScrutinizer05damn, karma STILL broken? wiki karma seems stalled21:39
DocScrutinizer05Woody14619a: didn't you fix wiki edits karma?21:40
DocScrutinizer05since karma obviously still broken, we might  ***need to open up the rules _again_*** :-S21:41
DocScrutinizer05so I'm already (unofficially) announcing: if you feel you should be eligibe to vote (or run for council) but your karma says "NO", please write a mail to council @ maemo org and explain your case. Sorry for our infra *still* broken and sucks21:42
DocScrutinizer05chem|st: ^^^^ you might want to take notice of this issue21:43
Win7Macfrom this list http://wiki.maemo.org/Community_Council/Council_election_Q4_2013/Eligible_candidates, my karma seems accurate21:46
Win7Macit covers at least tmo posts + thanks + Mediawiki_edits21:48
Win7Mac(no activity beyond that)21:49
Win7Macre: About Sailfish community: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?p=1390834#post139083422:01
DocScrutinizer05Win7Mac: (wiki karma) maybe I'm mistaken and chainsawbike "only" did rollbacks?22:14
DocScrutinizer05wich should count triple but might not get counted at all22:14
Win7Macmight be, just wanted to report my karma seems ok, but I contributed only in few categories where karma gets acquired22:16
Win7MacDoc, you only must have imagined that you answered in the "where do22:35
Win7Macyou see maemo in one year? in 5 years?"-thread... http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?p=1353053#post135305322:35
Win7Macthat's why i don't aswer via ML... ;)22:36
DocScrutinizer05well, i can't recall where I answered, it was in several places for sure22:49
Win7Macmight very well be that that question already came up earlier...22:50
DocScrutinizer05>>22:57
DocScrutinizer05Actually the HiFo-page states "The Hildon Foundation is a nonprofit organization elected by the Maemo Community to handle community oversight and infrastructure."22:57
DocScrutinizer05I'd change it to something like "The Hildon Foundation is a nonprofit organization elected by the Maemo Community to represent it for legal and other official practices and to preserve the maemo.org infrastructure."22:57
DocScrutinizer05<< DO IT! :-)22:57
