slaine_ | running a fedora moblin spin shows acceptable performance on Atom and on this hardware | 00:00 |
---|---|---|
RST38h | Which is also not exactly fresh | 00:00 |
villemv | ah, "supplemental" | 00:00 |
lcuk | at least with all the slow performance in emulated environment we will get great results on actual hardware | 00:00 |
RST38h | Core2 Duo should make the job | 00:00 |
lcuk | since devs will work extra hard to ensure its quick | 00:01 |
villemv | yeah, my core 2 duo has pni, ssse3 | 00:01 |
slaine_ | arjan: anyway. What I'd like to know now is, how can I help | 00:01 |
villemv | pni is what matters I guess | 00:01 |
RST38h | Core2 Duo is SUPPOSED to have SSSE3 | 00:01 |

slaine_ | I've booted it and it's pretty rough at the moment. | 00:02 |
slaine_ | So what's the plan here | 00:02 |
villemv | arjan: so how do you develop with moblin? do you use a chroot or what? | 00:02 |
slaine_ | How are patches to be submitted etc. | 00:02 |
villemv | or do you use moblin as host environment while you do it? | 00:02 |
RST38h | Well my personal plan is to go hit the bed and continue using Maemo5 for now :) | 00:02 |
lbt | villemv: OBS makes chroot setup trivial | 00:03 |
villemv | ok, so OBS creates a chroot "rootstrap" for you? | 00:03 |
slaine_ | as doe the moblin tools | 00:03 |
*** Votan has quit IRC | 00:03 | |

*** chickengeorge_n has joined #meego | 00:03 | |
villemv | and you use xephyr too? | 00:03 |
lbt | it has flexibility and can create 1/pkg per arch | 00:04 |
lbt | yes you can | 00:04 |
lbt | usually the chroots are minimal based on build-deps | 00:04 |
chickengeorge_n | irc://irc.freenode.net/bratwurst <------------ meego-professional-helpdesk german/english | 00:04 |
lbt | you can extend them to full envs for testing or use vms | 00:04 |
villemv | okay, so we can have all that we have have w/ sbox then | 00:05 |

timeless_mbp | s/lie/ile/ | 00:06 |
lbt | villemv: and just to play with it you can look at this tutorial - it's worthwile even though it's not moblin : http://wiki.maemo.org/Mer/Build | 00:07 |
villemv | lbt: thanks for the offer, I might actually bring you up to task on that ;-) | 00:07 |
lbt | focus on the Getting Started para - it's a cut'n'paste step by step | 00:07 |
lbt | villemv: are you nokian btw | 00:08 |

*** blag has quit IRC | 00:40 | |

slaine_ | you have to install the guest tools | 00:47 |
timeless_mbp | slaine_: i have 800x600x32 | 00:47 |

pwnguin | arjan: i think the transisitions are a bit smoother, but otherwise, nothing substiantial | 02:18 |
GeneralAntilles | Somebody still needs to go digging to figure out what they did to apt to prevent it from installing Ovi stuff. | 02:18 |

GeneralAntilles | arjan, Maemo users do all sorts of insane shit. | 02:20 |
timeless_mbp | how about a beowolf cluster of n900's? | 02:21 |
timeless_mbp | then you can distcc build openoffice :) | 02:21 |

timeless_mbp | n.b. i don't think beowolf support is available | 02:21 |
mikeleib | icecream is more better than distcc | 02:21 |
timeless_mbp | arjan: bluetooth pan (not supported) :) | 02:21 |
arjan | wonder how many n900's pack in a cubic meter | 02:21 |
javispedro | arjan: there are gentoo people that _built openoffice_ on the n810 | 02:21 |
timeless_mbp | arjan: w/ or w/o power cabling? | 02:21 |

pwnguin | where nokia wants to call the merged project 'maemo' and intel wants to keep it 'moblin' | 02:52 |
javispedro | maeblin! | 02:52 |
javispedro | pwnguin: i don't think it wouldn't be such a bad idea. | 02:52 |
pwnguin | some frustrated linux foundation employee threatens to use their worst case scenario name, 'meego', which they have sitting around | 02:52 |
pwnguin | i haven't decided who called the bluff but the end result is meego.com | 02:53 |
javispedro | heh :) | 02:53 |

arjan | can you imagine lawyers and trademark people of two companies in one room | 02:54 |
arjan | needing a name that all can agree with? | 02:55 |
arjan | might as well wait for the polar ice to melt, that'll be done quicker | 02:55 |
javispedro | yes. Though the scene has a BOFH and some bricks too. | 02:55 |
arjan | I'm sure | 02:55 |
trip0 | arjan: i'll drive my car more and the ice will melt faster | 02:55 |
arjan | my personal experience; the more lawyers in the room, the more the outcome looks like hospital food | 02:56 |
arjan | (no office to any lawyers here; I know some very good ones, and as long as they're alone, they're great ;-) | 02:56 |

markey | the Atom thing | 10:31 |
jaem | hrm | 10:31 |
jaem | I wonder what else may come to light in the next few weeks | 10:33 |
jaem | I think MeeGo is a very interesting move, but after all the negative response when they went from Diablo to Fremantle, I'd have to think there are things that they haven't mentioned yet | 10:33 |
jaem | apart from backports and such, it's a fair bit of upheaval | 10:34 |
jaem | I think it's probably good in the long run, but I hope everything's been thought out | 10:34 |
jaem | ... | 10:34 |
markey | yup :) | 10:35 |
jaem | it's sad to see all the uninformed freaking out and trolling, though | 10:36 |
Stskeeps | people should stop freaking out and help shape things instead | 10:36 |
Stskeeps | :P | 10:36 |
* jaem agrees | 10:36 | |
imad | ...and we are really could use all the help :-) | 10:36 |
bzhb | I just hope the ARM port won't be too much a second citizen... | 10:37 |
Stskeeps | bzhb: i think people will fight to the teeth to it not becoming so | 10:37 |
imad | no need to fight really... just contribute | 10:37 |
jaem | Stskeeps, agreed, and it looks like people will have much more of an opportunity to do so | 10:37 |

Stskeeps | and did the Mer project, where we tried to do many of the same things MeeGo has as goal | 10:41 |

jaem | imad, oh, *that's* why your nick rang a bell | 10:42 |
slaine_ | how's your vbox install ? | 10:42 |
jaem | nice to see you on here | 10:42 |
timeless_mbp | slaine_: um | 10:42 |
imad | thanks jaem -- been really hectic the past few days sorting things | 10:42 |
Stskeeps | imad, and a good signal to send to hang out here as well, being one of the top guys | 10:43 |
timeless_mbp | i had it running at 1024x whatever | 10:43 |
jaem | imad, no doubt. As I said, I'm really impressed with the direction this is heading overall... I just hope people dont' continue to be jerks about it | 10:43 |
imad | of-course -- | 10:43 |
timeless_mbp | slaine_: i was hoping to run the gui so i was 'user' instead of 'root' | 10:43 |
timeless_mbp | but i failed | 10:43 |
timeless_mbp | anyway, currently my pain is that the wiki doesn't like me | 10:44 |
slaine_ | So still needing to do the startx stuff ? | 10:44 |
imad | i think once we sort out the initial code stuff and release it in the next two or three weeks... thing swill start looking different than now | 10:44 |
*** bzhb has quit IRC | 10:44 | |

timeless_mbp | what's the "proper" way to do it? i tried /usr/bin/moblin-dm or something like that | 10:44 |

Stskeeps | imad: i think what people are wondering as well is things like scheduling of TSG meetings as well - we had a regular maemo.org sprint meeting as well so | 10:45 |
Stskeeps | it's every two weeks, but when does it start and where ;) | 10:45 |
imad | definetly will start it next week... i'll make sure to announce these here | 10:45 |
slaine_ | timeless_mbp: I didn't look any further into it after you got passed the virtual terminal part. I'll see if I can have a poke around later today | 10:45 |
Stskeeps | thanks | 10:45 |
jaem | imad, most of the ranting I've seen was uninformed - did they even *read* the FAQs?! | 10:46 |
timeless_mbp | slaine_: ok | 10:46 |
imad | i hope people would cut us some slack the firt few things as we get things going | 10:46 |
timeless_mbp | slaine_: anyway, i have vbox guest additions working and x11 works | 10:46 |
timeless_mbp | but i still don't have the proper launch sequence | 10:46 |
Stskeeps | imad: i can definately not recommend trying to read talk.maemo.org then :) | 10:46 |
slaine_ | yeah, that's what I'll look at later, see if we can get that moving | 10:46 |
imad | i read the logs -- too bad I wasnt here for the fun :-) | 10:46 |
imad | was stuck in Barcelona | 10:46 |
jaem | imad, it's the Internet - people are stupid | 10:47 |
jaem | or rather, the people who are stupid can all get together | 10:47 |
jaem | I'm pretty sure it will all blow over in time | 10:47 |
slaine_ | typical post being "Hi, I don't know anything about this, but here's my 2cents worth" | 10:47 |
jaem | most of the people I've seen making noise are newbies anyway | 10:47 |
jaem | slaine_, more like $2 | 10:47 |
lbt | hi imad | 10:47 |
slaine_ | lol, yes true, they didn't hold back | 10:48 |
Stskeeps | jaem: the challenge is channeling that energy into something productive. | 10:48 |
imad | i know - it was kind of funny that a lot of these guys never contributed a line of code to maemo or moblin | 10:48 |
jaem | Stskeeps, anything in particular? | 10:48 |
imad | hi lbt | 10:48 |
Stskeeps | jaem: turning their arguments on them and asking to help out :) | 10:48 |
*** ysyrota has joined #meego | 10:48 | |
jaem | imad, how much of Maemo is actually /in/ MeeGo? The marketing-spiel didn't mention much more than Qt | 10:48 |
jaem | if you can tell me, that is | 10:49 |
Stskeeps | jaem: i have difficulties describing what Maemo actually is :P | 10:49 |
imad | a lot of maemo will be in MeeGo -- not just QT | 10:49 |
imad | the Maemo gues did a lot of terrific work | 10:49 |
imad | guys | 10:49 |
lbt | I take it you're seeing the mailing list discussions too? Especially the 'upstream' and collaboration area? | 10:49 |
jaem | imad, that's good. it was a bit vague, and some people seemed to think that Maemo was just being scrapped, with a bits tacked onto Moblin | 10:49 |
jaem | I didn't think so, but I wasn't sure what the deal was | 10:50 |
imad | the problem is that a lot this will get sorted out publicly -- we've been careful not to make all the decisions upfront for the obvious openness reasons... so we really started with few key things that we had to have | 10:50 |
lbt | I think those of us who don't care about a file format *do* care about the "MeeGo is just a toy OS for phones - why would you need a full OS on there?" kinda thinking | 10:51 |
imad | things that would get us to bring up the base OS, and a reasonable application development env | 10:51 |
jaem | makes sense | 10:51 |
*** Jophish_n900 has joined #meego | 10:51 | |
jaem | personally, I'm waiting for more information to be released before making any major judgements, but I think the potential is great | 10:52 |
jaem | and as for Openness, it sounds like a big move | 10:52 |
jaem | when you guys say that the base system is going to be completely Open Source, I would presume some drivers still won't be? Or are you planning on leaning on the manufacturers a bit? | 10:53 |
imad | yeah... it will come together... we chose to do it openly and that makes it double hard... | 10:53 |
jaem | no doubt, but it's admirable | 10:53 |
* timeless_mbp sighs | 10:53 | |
Stskeeps | jaem: yeah.. waiting for source and participating in discussions | 10:53 |
imad | kernel drivers will be all open -- at least we are making this a requirement for now | 10:53 |
*** wishdash1r has quit IRC | 10:53 | |
jaem | \o/ | 10:53 |
kad | imad: what about gl drivers, e.g. for the chip on nokia netbooks ? | 10:54 |
lbt | imad: I'd be interested on your thoughts on Moblin having no upstream distro? Not reusing all that inter-package integration QA work... | 10:54 |
imad | there will be some userland driver (probably one) with one of the gfx vendors who we are unable to push over yet | 10:54 |
Stskeeps | userland is not as limiting as kernel drivers though (see our VSC proposal) :P | 10:54 |
imad | the upstream distro was a really hard decision to make a year or so ago | 10:55 |
*** tackat has joined #meego | 10:55 | |
imad | we started with an upstream... but we started diverging given what we really need to do for devices. | 10:55 |
kad | lbt: having no upstream distro is sometimes better. you have faster adoption pace from real upstreams like gnome, kde, ... | 10:55 |
jaem | apparently most of the trolls haven't figured out the "no upstream" part | 10:55 |
jaem | or they just don't care, being trolls | 10:55 |
lbt | kad, I see that - but I worry about the lack of OSS ecosystem | 10:55 |
imad | so ath that point, we decided it would be far cleaner to be our own upstream | 10:56 |
kad | lbt: like what ? | 10:56 |
Jaffa | Morning, all | 10:56 |
imad | morning | 10:56 |
jaem | Jaffa, hi | 10:56 |
lbt | like the 20K packages in Debian | 10:56 |
lbt | or similar in other distros | 10:56 |
lbt | as Jaffa said | 10:56 |
kad | lbt: amount doesn't matter if quality is not good :) | 10:56 |
lbt | when a dev wants a library and imports the dependencies | 10:56 |
imad | dont get me wrong... all these distros are great -- Debian, Fedora, OpenSuSE... but all target different usage models | 10:57 |
kad | lbt: you can check with many active users, how many of those 20k is really used. | 10:57 |
lbt | it makes life hard | 10:57 |
imad | we wanted something that is specific to devices ranging from netbooks to handsets to TVs, etc... | 10:57 |
lbt | kad agreed - and that's part of the approach | 10:57 |
lbt | but having them to call upon is valuable | 10:57 |
lbt | imad: different usage models? | 10:57 |
kad | lbt: I yesterday had a long discussin with one of geeks about Debian and Ubuntu - and his main complain about ubuntu was about packages which comes from Debian and how badly it works :) | 10:58 |
imad | I mean... we wanted something that is specific to the needs of what we are trying to do | 10:58 |
Stskeeps | lbt: 'mobile usage' | 10:58 |
slaine_ | Don't talk to me about TV's | 10:58 |
imad | :-) | 10:58 |
kad | slaine_: why ? :) | 10:58 |
slaine_ | bloody Philips and their broken SerialXpress protocol | 10:58 |
jaem | imad, was RPM a specific design choice, or just a carry-over from Mobline? | 10:58 |
jaem | Moblin* | 10:59 |
Stskeeps | jaem: general consensus is that it is because there's a full toolchain (builder, image builder, qa, etc) already set up around it | 10:59 |
Stskeeps | and we don't need to reinvent it | 10:59 |
lbt | I do agree with the mobile usage of course - but I think a lot of this is about libraries vs ui | 10:59 |
jaem | Stskeeps, where? | 10:59 |
imad | there was many factors of how we selected the key things -- meaning distro infrastrcuture, packaging toolkit | 10:59 |
Stskeeps | jaem: well, it is lost in all the noise, but this was the response here | 10:59 |
slaine_ | I've just found out that Get responses are not atomic and are infact overwritten by the TV if the user happens to be interacting with the remote at the same time | 10:59 |
slaine_ | grrrrr | 10:59 |
jaem | slaine_, yikes | 11:00 |
*** mckoan|away is now known as mckoan | 11:00 | |
slaine_ | broken by design | 11:00 |
lbt | and imad, having a relationship with an upstream may still mean repackaging | 11:00 |
imad | the packaging itself wasn;t really that important -- what was important the infrastrcuture that we could start with | 11:00 |
lbt | but syncing on versions | 11:00 |
*** pohly has joined #meego | 11:00 | |
*** tilppis has joined #meego | 11:01 | |
lbt | and making the autopackaging use the 'upstream distro' and not the pristine source | 11:01 |
kad | lbt: syncing on versions slowdowns development. look at ubuntu and debian. | 11:01 |
imad | well the problem with packaging vs upstream is that they are not consistent anyway... so if you look at the RPM distros... none of them are compatible with each other... they just HAPPEN to use a specific packaging format -- similar with the DEB based | 11:01 |
Stskeeps | lbt, i saw the current repo set the other day.. there's still a lot of room for policy changes and fixes to help things | 11:01 |
slaine_ | imad, Do you have any contact details I could use how to become an OSV of Moblin/MeeGo ? | 11:01 |
slaine_ | I've been trying for a very, very long time and gotten nowhere | 11:01 |
lbt | Stskeeps: I haven't seen the repo set | 11:02 |
Stskeeps | lbt: sec | 11:02 |
*** pvanhoof has joined #meego | 11:02 | |
imad | what do you mean...becoming an OSV? | 11:02 |
lbt | imad: indeed - but 2 upstreams are more consistent than 2000 original tarballs | 11:02 |
Stskeeps | http://repo.meego.com/trunk/repo/source/ | 11:02 |
kad | lbt: it's easier to track 2000 original tarballs than sometimes fight with community of upstream distro for minor need changes | 11:03 |
lbt | if you fight then submit the change upstream to original | 11:04 |
lbt | that problem you face anyway | 11:04 |
lbt | if original source won't accept you maintain a patch | 11:04 |
lbt | same as now | 11:04 |
lbt | however, much of the time you'd offload the patch maint to upstream distro | 11:05 |
imad | we're about to make the initial source tree available, just waiting mostly on things that we need to do including making the full build infrastrcuture also openlll so once that is all there... anyone can take it and create a commercial distro out of it | 11:05 |
kad | lbt: in case of dpkg or apt for example, debian is the upsream. there is no upper way to escalate. | 11:06 |
kad | lbt: and this is one of examples. | 11:06 |
*** W_I has joined #meego | 11:06 | |
lbt | re: dpkg/apt decision is made : np | 11:06 |
Stskeeps | the discussion is just to not shoot ourselves too much in the foot :) | 11:06 |
lbt | yes | 11:06 |
kad | lbt: well, it was not about re-open holly war, but just to provide example :) | 11:07 |
lbt | (kad, same arg for any app developed by a distro : zypper, yum etc) | 11:07 |
lbt | We don't need to marry an upstream though | 11:07 |
lbt | just stalk them ;) | 11:07 |
lbt | we can be the creepy distro :D | 11:07 |
imad | at some point, we need to get to one packaging system in Linux -- maybe we can call it DPM | 11:08 |
jaem | Stskeeps, how many levels of "shot" are there in the foot-gun you're using, then? | 11:08 |
lbt | imad: I was hoping that we could use an open OBS as an initial touch point | 11:08 |
Stskeeps | jaem: kill off everything in packaging not relevant to mobile usage. | 11:08 |
jaem | lbt, what? You don't already stalk people through commit logs? XD | 11:08 |
lbt | for multi distros | 11:08 |
lbt | jaem: heh | 11:08 |
kad | lbt: I agree that zypper is nowdays somehow comparable to dpkg. but in case yum - Sith is alsmost independed from distro, as there are many contributing distro/customers | 11:08 |
Stskeeps | http://lists.meego.com/pipermail/meego-dev/2010-February/000253.html , jaem (and others willing to read my "don't shoot yourself in the foot" distro) | 11:08 |
Stskeeps | er, suggestion | 11:09 |
lbt | kad: too specific for ignorant old me | 11:09 |
kad | lbt: :) | 11:09 |
jaem | Stskeeps, I skimmed it, but it makes sense | 11:09 |

kad | ScriptRipper: what do you mean by SDK in case of distros like Debian/Fedora/Ubuntu/etc ? | 11:20 |
chakie_work | ScriptRipper: OBS? | 11:21 |
lbt | kad: I feel that the repo that makes up 'core' Moblin is tiny by comparison to most distros | 11:21 |
slaine_ | its that way by design though | 11:21 |
ScriptRipper | OBS | 11:21 |
lbt | and for a developer used to normal distros looking to pull in a reusable library... | 11:21 |
lbt | that's a problem | 11:21 |
slaine_ | This isn't a normal distro though | 11:22 |
lbt | slaine_: no, it's that way by economic neccesity | 11:22 |
*** Jophish_n900 has joined #meego | 11:22 | |
kad | lbt: this core of the distro is enough to build most usable software. if somebody want something more, available in other distro - it's not hard to became maintainer and help distro :) | 11:22 |
slaine_ | What we need is an extra's type repo | 11:22 |
ScriptRipper | i mean: a way to run stuff inside a virtual machine like OBS does and connecting to tools | 11:22 |
lbt | sec - phone - kad, will reply | 11:22 |
ScriptRipper | outside of the virtual machine | 11:22 |
*** bleeter has quit IRC | 11:24 | |
kad | ScriptRipper: I'm maybe not representative developer, but I'd prefer to build in high power build system and then install from repo packages rather than VMs | 11:24 |
Jaffa | kad: Err, it *is* hard if high-end app developers have been enticed to the platform and they find there's no easy way of communicating with an LDAP server or posting to Twitter. They may not even *know* that a different repo's package can be repackaged, let alone how to do it. Having a dedicated team of people who respond to app author's saying "I want to post a message to Twitter from Python, how do I do it?" and they respond "We've just created python-twitt | 11:24 |
*** bleeter has joined #meego | 11:25 | |
kad | lbt: my battery running out, so maybe rejoin irc in ~1h. | 11:25 |
ScriptRipper | kad: OBS uses a virtual machine *to build* | 11:25 |
Jaffa | ScriptRipper: VMs aren't a very enticing option for attracting developers. People expect to be able to do cross-platform, cross-compiling build and debug without having to install a VM. | 11:25 |
kad | ScriptRipper: not always, it's fine with chroots. | 11:26 |
ScriptRipper | yes | 11:26 |
jaem | Jaffa, well, the Maemo SDK VM is convenient - if I could set up SBox and friends natively on my Arch box, I'd be happy | 11:26 |
Jaffa | MeeGo app developers WILL NOT solely be running Linux. | 11:26 |
jaem | but the VM makes it work nicely | 11:26 |
ScriptRipper | I know. I wrote parts of OBS | 11:26 |
jaem | Jaffa, I take your point, though | 11:26 |
ScriptRipper | I am just loudly thinking about | 11:26 |
RST38h | Jaffa: But Moblin people do not know that yet ;) | 11:26 |
*** jjk has quit IRC | 11:27 | |
ScriptRipper | how to better instrument the OBS virtual machines / chroot | 11:27 |
Jaffa | jaem: It's really not convenient. It's bloated, it's another OS to maintain, integration into the tools and editors that a developers like on their platform of choice is poor. | 11:27 |
jaem | ScriptRipper, if you think more quietly, your computer won't hear you :O | 11:27 |
jaem | Jaffa, I meant for setup, as compared to the current Maemo alternative | 11:27 |
kad | jaem: luckily, you wouldn't need scratchbox anymore :) | 11:27 |
jaem | I agree that it's far from ideal | 11:27 |
*** alterego_ is now known as alterego | 11:27 | |
*** robsta has left #meego | 11:27 | |
Jaffa | jaem: Will, yes - if your only alternative is Scratchbox on a Linux box having a VM is better ;-) | 11:27 |
jaem | kad, I've never developed with OBS... what's the workflow when testing locally? | 11:28 |
Jaffa | Something *like* MADDE (i.e. with its requirements and goals) is essential to attracting a wide range of developers. | 11:28 |
slaine_ | that's something I wondered too | 11:28 |
slaine_ | git checkout, make an rpm ????? | 11:28 |
kad | Jaffa: I can use my TextMate, osc client, rpm on my mac os :) just using build on servers, not locally. | 11:28 |
ScriptRipper | you can use the local command line client to run a build also on the local machine | 11:28 |
ScriptRipper | it then sets up chroot/kvm/XEN on the local machine | 11:29 |
ScriptRipper | instead of the server | 11:29 |
kad | jaem: again, I might be not representative developer in a scence. my habbits is to make patch, update spec, commit to obs, wait it build, install package from repo on target hw. | 11:29 |
*** leinir has quit IRC | 11:29 | |
ScriptRipper | Jaffa: what is MADDE ? | 11:30 |
Jaffa | kad: and if I want to do dev on the train? Or abroad? Or anywhere without a data connection? ;-) | 11:30 |
Jaffa | ScriptRipper: http://wiki.maemo.org/MADDE | 11:30 |
* kad running out of battery on laptop. let's speak a bit later. | 11:30 | |
jaem | kad, sure | 11:31 |
kad | Jaffa: in train, for supplying patch is enough to have even costy gprs :). without data connection - use vmware with simple linux install and chroots. no problem with that. | 11:31 |
Jaffa | ScriptRipper: That's cool. Is it *theoretically* possible for the osc to set up a VM for the building on Windows? | 11:31 |
*** hrw|gone is now known as hrw | 11:32 | |
ScriptRipper | yes it is | 11:32 |
Jaffa | kad: Sorry, but you're wrong. MeeGo has to entice developers who are also looking at iPhone, webOS and Android - and the development tools are something that Maemo's taken 5 years to even get *close* to getting right. | 11:32 |

ScriptRipper | but OBS currently does not support windows package install | 11:33 |
Jaffa | kad: Saying "you have to develop in a mindset of a 1970s timeshare mainframe" isn't going to cut it. | 11:33 |
Jaffa | ScriptRipper: Or, presumably, OS X? | 11:33 |
Jaffa | ScriptRipper: Although that might be easier as a next step. | 11:33 |
ScriptRipper | so you would need some prepackaged .rpm or .deb packages for this target OS | 11:33 |
ScriptRipper | same for Solaris or OS X | 11:34 |
ScriptRipper | or other BSD like OSes | 11:34 |

*** ab[out] has joined #meego | 11:36 | |
RST38h | Sorry for a really stupid question but what is OBS? | 11:36 |
Stskeeps | RST38h: a builder system or a really clever way to construct chroots. | 11:36 |
RST38h | Or, to make things simpler, can I simply write a Makefile and type "make" to compile applicaiton under meego? | 11:36 |
RST38h | Sts: so OBS ~= Scratchbox? | 11:37 |
ScriptRipper | OBS: http://en.opensuse.org/Build_Service | 11:37 |
Stskeeps | RST38h: sortof, except saner. the base user mode emulation just works. and then you can drop in x86 packages on top to cross-compile fast. | 11:37 |
ScriptRipper | and: OBS can do things like scratchbox can do for cross building | 11:37 |
RST38h | Yes, I have seen this link yesterday but could not figure out what it means for a normal app developer | 11:37 |

ScriptRipper | OBS can do both | 11:48 |

ScriptRipper | even in one package source | 11:48 |
ScriptRipper | if you package it correctly | 11:49 |
jaem | feedcrunch, as to whether it will work out of the box, you'd have to ask someone else, but I'd expect so | 11:49 |

villemv | so it's slightly more than "community supported" | 11:49 |

*** ElPollo has joined #meego | 12:05 | |

Stskeeps | hence the need for things like our proposed VSC | 12:05 |

leinir | *nods* Indeed | 12:05 |
Hukka | The meego arch images tell us about the split UI from Maemo and from Moblin, but nothing about the vendors actually ignoring both... | 12:05 |
*** Rix has joined #meego | 12:06 | |
villemv | LG had no prior linux phones? so I suppose it has to have at least moblin ui | 12:06 |

*** hbons has joined #meego | 12:06 | |

Naranek_ | the LG GW990 seems really promising, but I have no previous experience with LG. Is it really possible that even though it runs meego, it's still locked down? | 12:07 |
Stskeeps | Vendor social contract: http://lists.meego.com/pipermail/meego-dev/2010-February/000036.html | 12:07 |
villemv | they could prevent installing new stuff on it | 12:07 |
Hukka | Stskeeps: Yeah, I know | 12:07 |
villemv | but then, the "meego" marketing moniker would be BS | 12:07 |
Naranek_ | for me that kind of defeats the purpose of running linux :) | 12:07 |
leinir | Hukka: There's 390 people in here, i'm sure one or two missed it ;) | 12:08 |
Hukka | Stskeeps: But since the phone is already running the OS in the expos, there's no stopping them now | 12:08 |

*** mikhas has joined #meego | 13:12 | |
kad | Jaffa: iPhone development requires Xcode, and thus, it simplifies a lot of thing - you have there cross gcc, custom binary representation format, so in that scenario you don't really care what you have as host OS. | 13:12 |
kad | Jaffa: in case of Linux development, the biggest problem of crosscompiling is that many programs in their Makefiles using binaries which are just built. | 13:13 |
*** fg has joined #meego | 13:13 | |

*** bigbrovar has quit IRC | 13:17 | |
jumpula | it's not a problem of deb, it's rather a problem of the userland software itself | 13:19 |
jumpula | only few pieces can be properly cross compiled | 13:19 |
kad | robsta: it might be some generic stuff (like, let me just pointing randomly somewhere without evidences, TeX) that you need to build your good app, but would require some tricks if you try to cross-compile it. | 13:19 |
jumpula | thus leaving one in a situation of either extensively patching the rest or using sb or somesuch to circumvent the issue | 13:19 |
robsta | kad: most of the software stack in meego comes from freedesktop and other sane places and is already being used in embedded development, and cross compiled on a daily basis | 13:19 |

kad | robsta: well, I personaly use maybe 40% of packages available in Fedora repos. And for me content of MeeGo is more than enough. If I need something, I would be able to build it myself, as majority of build dependencies are already there. | 13:24 |

J_P | Hi all, just a very important question: MeeGo will use apt-get/.deb right? | 13:39 |
Stskeeps | sorry to disappoint you - now, do you want the organisational reason? | 13:39 |
Stskeeps | it uses rpm, but not sure about apt-get style setrup | 13:39 |
*** yanli has joined #meego | 13:40 | |
J_P | Stskeeps: wow. Why rpm? lsb? | 13:40 |
townxelliot | I'm going to attempt to fix some issues with the wiki logins - anyone working on it right now? shouldn't need a restart, but may invalidate existing cookies briefly | 13:41 |
Stskeeps | J_P: actually, it's due to what tools in place. moblin brings to the table a build service (this can handle debs though, but keep listening), image builders, repositories, QA, and many other state of the art tools | 13:41 |
Stskeeps | J_P: these are all centered around RPM. | 13:42 |
Stskeeps | J_P: if .deb was to be adapted, all those tools would have to be rewritten to fit deb, as it isn't trivial to take debian.org tools, since they are, well, tied to debian.org | 13:42 |
Stskeeps | also, the benefit of integration | 13:43 |
Stskeeps | J_P: i am personall a .deb fan, but i think this is a compelling reason for the rpm choice. | 13:44 |
J_P | Stskeeps: I don't know if you are inside MeeGo team, If yes, please transmit my message: Not use .deb will be a bigger mistake. | 13:45 |
slaine_ | oh ffs, not this conversation again | 13:45 |
slaine_ | it's been like ground hog day, everyday this week | 13:45 |
Stskeeps | J_P: i'm not, but i ask you to read my argumentation | 13:45 |

Stskeeps | slaine_: i think once tools are up and running and people see how smooth things run, it will be more and more difficult for them to argue. | 13:47 |
J_P | Stskeeps: your argumentation is not valid. Because MeeGo will start a new modification is world for many years.. and is better a effort now (to use deb) than a not perfect system in the future | 13:47 |

J_P | Stskeeps: yes... is dificult.. | 13:49 |
Stskeeps | J_P: right. this is one of the choices that was pre-made for us. there's tools to make this immensely easier. moblin have tried those and use those. it is a integrated product, centered around rpm technology. | 13:50 |

*** polac has joined #meego | 13:52 | |
slaine_ | MeeGo is Moblin, which has been around for a couple of years at this point | 13:52 |

*** schend has joined #meego | 13:53 | |
*** penguinbait has joined #meego | 13:53 | |
rosch | the meassage at release, was that devices should be out this year | 13:53 |
Stskeeps | J_P: another issue is training the systems people. there's no alternative to moblin - and maemo isn't exactly the best base for things | 13:53 |
*** pcarrier has joined #meego | 13:53 | |
*** ceyusa has joined #meego | 13:53 | |
slaine_ | If you where starting from scratch then the deb vs rpm arguments would have some validity. But that's not the case here. The app stack from Maemo is moving to an alternative platform that is Moblin | 13:53 |
Guest58941 | so 1/2 year until testing starts | 13:53 |
kad | J_P: deb toolchain is not something easily hackable. | 13:53 |
zerojay | slaine_: Aren't we starting from scratch? It sure feels like it since we're tossing out everything on the Maemo side pretty much. | 13:54 |
Stskeeps | J_P: i have personally spent a year shoe-horning Maemo on top of Debian/Ubuntu. It isn't easy. | 13:54 |
GeneralAntilles | So why, again, hasn't anybody just gone ahead and written up all of the technical, organizational and political arguments behind the choice on a wiki page somewhere so we can stop having this discussion every 30 minutes? :) | 13:54 |
Stskeeps | GeneralAntilles: w00t tried and it drowned | 13:54 |
slaine_ | zerojay: the maemo guys have lost the most in this transition | 13:54 |
Stskeeps | or gained | 13:54 |
Stskeeps | depending on perspective | 13:54 |
slaine_ | true | 13:54 |
zerojay | slaine_: That's an understatement. | 13:54 |
GeneralAntilles | Stskeeps, not much can offset the loss of a good brand. :( | 13:55 |
zerojay | Gained nothing but another year of scratching and clawing to get back to where we were. | 13:55 |
slaine_ | exactly | 13:55 |
Stskeeps | zerojay: there was a need to reconstruct maemo and now we know what works. | 13:55 |
kad | GeneralAntilles: writting them down would decrease amount of buzz going arround ;) | 13:55 |
slaine_ | And I think the PR exercise that is MeeGo has done you all a disservice. | 13:55 |
zerojay | Stskeeps: What need? | 13:55 |
Stskeeps | zerojay: if you spent enough time developing with maemo, you'd see the issues. platform stall and inability to spread to other devices easily. | 13:56 |
*** ptlo has quit IRC | 13:56 | |
Stskeeps | zerojay: i think all this scratching and clawing has put us in a position where we can actually try and run things. | 13:57 |
J_P | Stskeeps: most people here works with Debian/Ubuntu where environment is deb.. this will be better environment to Meego. | 13:57 |
Guest58941 | J_P: it will work ! | 13:57 |
J_P | Stskeeps: most people on the works use .deb, why not use .deb too | 13:57 |
Stskeeps | J_P: yes, deb is a brilliant format but a choice was made and i explained you why it is so | 13:57 |
J_P | Guest58941: yes, windows works too. with expetions, but works | 13:58 |
zerojay | Stskeeps: No, it's put us in a position where apparently there was no confidence in Maemo and the community around it, so we get to sit on the sidelines. | 13:58 |
slaine_ | Why on earth does one archive format over another make such a difference to people. | 13:58 |
slaine_ | gah, I'm getting sucked in again | 13:58 |
Stskeeps | zerojay: otoh, one of the 'dictators' was idling in here earlier and was discussing issues with people :P | 13:58 |

*** andrei1089 has joined #meego | 13:58 | |
Guest58941 | J_P: the tools work on your distro of choice | 13:59 |
Stskeeps | zerojay: this is the top of the project, instead of hiding away in offices | 13:59 |
yngwin | what matter is the tools | 13:59 |
zerojay | slaine_: I don't care about what archive format is used... what I care about is that everything we worked for and worked on has been tossed aside for this shit on a whim. | 13:59 |
w00t | GeneralAntilles: there is a wiki page | 13:59 |
Guest58941 | slaine_: ppl are used to their toolss | 13:59 |
w00t | GeneralAntilles: it's a bit biased, but hold on and I'll try hunt it down | 13:59 |
kad | J_P: regardless of wrap, most valuable thing is inside the box. packaging doesn't matter much if you app is crap. | 13:59 |
GeneralAntilles | w00t, good! Now we just need a bot to spit it out every time a baiting phrase pops up. | 13:59 |
flightplan | slaine_: because it is not only the archive format, it is a matter of source package architecture, tools and what not. however because of OBS dealing with rpm... wl you got your reasons. | 13:59 |
Stskeeps | zerojay: i don't see it as being thrown away, i'm seeing it as them giving us what we actually want, in a shorter timeframe than what we would had to slowly and iterately gain. | 14:00 |
*** abinader has joined #meego | 14:00 | |
J_P | Stskeeps: Guest58941 kad "..deb is a brilliant format but a choice was made.." So if choice was made, we don't need more talk about this. | 14:01 |
zerojay | Stskeeps: They didn't talk to anyone about "what we actually want". | 14:01 |
J_P | I was thinking just to help! | 14:01 |
Stskeeps | J_P: i think the deb vs rpm thing has been noticed by everyone in charge | 14:02 |
w00t | zerojay: realistically - if people do want change, then it can still happen | 14:02 |
Stskeeps | zerojay: well, with a dysfunctional council, it was hard to get any policies done. | 14:02 |
w00t | I haven't seen any statements to the contrary | 14:02 |
w00t | but I also haven't seen any consensus that change is necessary, nor stepping up and taking charge of it | 14:02 |
yngwin | if the dev vs rpm thing is the only major bone of contention, then things are in pretty good shape ;) | 14:03 |
slaine_ | w00t, not with MeeGo 1.0 only a matter of weeks/months away | 14:03 |
Stskeeps | zerojay: http://wiki.maemo.org/2010_Agenda | 14:03 |
Guest58941 | basically - if someone does rewrite all tools -> fine | 14:03 |
w00t | slaine_: *shrug* | 14:03 |
w00t | slaine_: timeframes don't change things | 14:03 |
flightplan | maybe http://wiki.meego.com/Packaging already gives enough of argumentation to forward askers to? | 14:03 |
slaine_ | It does to the people paying for the work to be done | 14:03 |
w00t | slaine_: if people wanted it changed, they'd want it changed - instead, as far as I can tell, most people decided to be vocal about it and suddenly look the other way when they were asked to organise doing something about it | 14:03 |
zerojay | Stskeeps: Nothing on that page matters anymore. | 14:04 |

Stskeeps | Naranek: unsure. depends. | 14:08 |
w00t | Stskeeps: surely the platform itself being designed to run on multiple devices means that won't be as difficult a goal at least | 14:08 |

villemv | MelisU: havy you tried C++ & Qt ? It doesn't stink, really. You miss some goodies like closures, but it won't slow you down that much | 14:24 |
w00t | MelisU: Qt removes most of the aspects of memory management from you (unless you choose to handle it manually) if that's what you're worried about | 14:24 |
villemv | other C++ frameworks do stink by design, of course, but don't let that stop you | 14:24 |
*** elproxy has joined #meego | 14:25 | |

slaine_ | cool | 14:25 |
slaine_ | not looked at Qt since 2003'ish, so looking forward to having an excuse now | 14:26 |
villemv | but really, many who try Qt with C++ can get by with just the good old C++ | 14:26 |
da4089 | which of pyqt vs pyside is best to look at? | 14:26 |
w00t | slaine_: if you ever need help - ask | 14:26 |
*** abinader_ has joined #meego | 14:26 | |
w00t | da4089: licence-wise, pyside is more permissive, but it's not really stable in some areas yet | 14:26 |
slaine_ | I may do, my C++ is rusty as a rusty thing | 14:26 |
* villemv is pseudo-hardcore pythonista | 14:26 | |
villemv | huge advantage of using C++ is Qt Creator | 14:27 |

MelisU | villemv: I hate C++. Sorry. It is rusty. I hate .h and .cpp whenever I see it. I really don't want to deal with such an old language. | 14:29 |
da4089 | w00t: thx | 14:29 |
J_P | MelisU: PySide or PyQt is a very good development system to MeeGo. Is perfect to maemo and I think will be to MeeGo too.. | 14:29 |
w00t | da4089: no problem -- let me know if you need help with it | 14:29 |
MiXu- | C++ doesn't feel that bad when there's Qt | 14:30 |
MelisU | J_P: Python is dog slow and needs memory like the structural integrity of the universe would depend on it. | 14:30 |
flightplan | MelisU: maybe one of these might fit your needs -> http://qt.nokia.com/products/programming-language-support | 14:31 |
villemv | Well, many of the alts are not much better (Java, C#, I'm looking at you) | 14:31 |

villemv | holywar! | 14:32 |
MelisU | fight fire with fire :) | 14:32 |
J_P | MelisU: not. You are talking about use PyQT in 200MHZ and 16MB. Actually all smarphones.. used arm or atom that has >=600MHZ and minimum one core. memory >=512MB. Will be fast as C++ | 14:32 |
MelisU | J_P: Nope, I run Kubuntu and I know how slow the python KDE apps are. Not suitable for a smartphone PERIOD | 14:33 |
J_P | MelisU: that is not optimized.. | 14:34 |
w00t | MelisU: fwiw, I've used python a fair bit with Qt for my n900, and it's perfectly responsive | 14:34 |
villemv | pygtk apps are also ok on n810 | 14:34 |
w00t | the only problem is that they have about a 1-1.5 second startup delay because I'm too lazy to pull in classes individually, and I import the whole of QtGui and QtCore | 14:34 |
yngwin | and dont compare bloated kde with pure Qt | 14:34 |
J_P | MelisU: python for rewrite for maemo.. is very fast.. see what w00t say.. | 14:34 |
w00t | MelisU: while I'm not saying I'll change your mind, I'm just saying it might be worth reevaluating | 14:35 |
yngwin | MelisU: but there's also Qyoto if you prefer c#/mono | 14:35 |
flightplan | qyoto was discontinued IIRC, was't it? | 14:36 |
MelisU | thanks guys, do you think Googles Unladen Swallow Python optimisations will make it to Meego? | 14:36 |

yngwin | slaine_: http://blog.qt.nokia.com/2010/02/15/meet-qt-quick/ | 14:49 |
mece | you should never have to boot your phone, so boot times i completely irrevlevant imo. | 14:49 |
GeneralAntilles | mece, well, except when you take it out of the box. ;) | 14:49 |
jku_ | mece, I wasn't really claiming that. I wanted to point out that it's not unreasonable to expect apps to start up pretty much immediately | 14:50 |
mece | jku_, that is true. Depends on the app though. | 14:51 |
* w00t shakes fist at meego-community bounce | 14:51 | |
mece | juk_, but something should happen immidiately. | 14:51 |
MelisU | jku_: Exactly. I really think Intel and especially Nokia needs to build something Vala-like for Qt. | 14:51 |
MelisU | They seem to push Pyhton .. but that has so many downsides. | 14:52 |
lcuk | app startup time in python is worse | 14:52 |
*** oilinki has joined #meego | 14:53 | |
lcuk | normal app startup time in general needs optimizing | 14:53 |
lcuk | some frameworks are faster than others | 14:53 |
mece | MelisU, how about vala? That works. | 14:53 |
MelisU | Meego needs a productive high level compiled language or it will die. | 14:53 |
MelisU | Vala does not work with Qt | 14:53 |
MelisU | only GTK | 14:53 |
lcuk | some are near instantanious | 14:53 |

*** oilinki has quit IRC | 14:57 | |
lcuk | MelisU, is there so much boiler plate for qt? | 14:57 |
MelisU | vmlemon_: No, monsterous big Vm | 14:57 |
lcuk | i thought it was all encapsulated and simplified | 14:57 |
lcuk | by virtue of it being c++ | 14:57 |
*** Rix has quit IRC | 14:57 | |
pillar_ | and no vm | 14:57 |
MelisU | It is simple for C++ | 14:58 |
*** abinader has joined #meego | 14:58 | |
javispedro | lcuk: it's a bit less verbose since it has a "preprocessor" that creates all boilerplate | 14:58 |
MelisU | but that is still way off from really simple .. you still need to deal with .h shit and all the rusty rest of it | 14:58 |
lcuk | so now people are requesting a pre-pre-processor? | 14:58 |
MelisU | kinda .. yes | 14:58 |
lcuk | well make an easy api wrapper class? | 14:59 |
lcuk | with just the essentials | 14:59 |
javispedro | you're telling me Qt is not easy enough? | 14:59 |
vmlemon_ | So everyone's saying that they don't want Qt... But they do? ;) | 14:59 |
w00t | MelisU: you do know you don't *have* to split the two, right? | 14:59 |
* lcuk is gonna make qt classes encapsulating liq* soon :) | 14:59 | |
javispedro | damn, you could classify as a student in javispedro's no-autotools school of programming | 14:59 |

*** rmayr has quit IRC | 15:03 | |
GeneralAntilles | w00t, we don't want to dump a bunch of work into Drupal if we decide it's not suited. | 15:04 |

w00t | GeneralAntilles: I'm just trying to avoid a repeat of the packaging discussion, really | 15:04 |
GeneralAntilles | w00t, we have a LOT of time and effort into Midgard and quite a few people who know how to work it. | 15:04 |
w00t | GeneralAntilles: i.e. a lot of talk over not a lot and pretty much no action | 15:04 |
*** eean has quit IRC | 15:05 | |

w00t | like I said: if midguard really is the better solution, then let's go for it, I don't know much about either since I avoid prepackaged CMS like the plague | 15:06 |
X-Fade | We just need to make sure it fits our needs beforehand. | 15:07 |

w00t | X-Fade: I'm not talking about throwing anything out, either on the ML, or here | 15:15 |
w00t | X-Fade: I'm just doing some idle thinking now | 15:15 |
villemv | it's a good thing to have most people using the same language too - for code reuse | 15:15 |
villemv | Vala is not really needed for Qt in the sense it's needed for Gtk | 15:15 |
bergie | w00t: stuff like Karma and application quality assurance can of course be developed from scratch, but even then the experiences gained on what works and what doesn't on maemo.org are valuable | 15:15 |
MelisU | villemv: OK, but that is IMO old and rusty. No type inference, closures, big, bloated and generally not really modern. Sorry. | 15:15 |
lcuk | villemv, fast startup is not something that is granted solely by the language, you can make c++ go slower than python for example | 15:15 |
villemv | MelisU: C++ has type inference in C++0x | 15:16 |
lcuk | vala works because the bloat required to code gtk objects in c is overwhelming | 15:16 |

w00t | MelisU: for the case of a number of compilers (gcc, vc2010, at least), you can quite a few bits of it right now | 15:17 |

w00t | bergie: sure, sure, I don't know why, but everyone seems to be implying that I have a problem with reusing existing infra -- if my mail gave that impression, it was not my intention | 15:18 |

poutsi | javispedro, this is exactly where I use my litmus test | 16:40 |
vmlemon_ | The difference is that you never feed a Makefile to a C++ compiler, I guess. Which makes it all moot | 16:40 |
poutsi | the end result, whatever it is, goes through a c++ compiler, therefore for all useful intents and purposes it is c++ | 16:40 |
javispedro | which is a bit useless since you don't question if the output of that compiler is useful at all. | 16:41 |
poutsi | now I don't follow you | 16:41 |
javispedro | Qt code would pass that test, but would fail to link. Is that C++ then? | 16:41 |
villemv | *yes* | 16:41 |
villemv | c++ standard doesn't say what you can link to | 16:41 |

poutsi | yep, that's pretty crucial here in my mind too | 16:42 |
villemv | or whatever | 16:42 |
javispedro | villemv: but what was previously selfcontained is no longer selfcontained if you use a standards-compliant c++ compiler | 16:42 |

*** mtc has quit IRC | 16:55 | |
villemv | no, it should evaluate rhs first, then do the assignment | 16:55 |
villemv | you may be confusing this with having many ++ operations on same variable in function arguments for a call | 16:56 |
javispedro | even if it's specified it later revisions, my point is that it doesn't say if the object code generated for that is an addi instruction or a function call to a library function. | 16:56 |
inz | i dont think the evaluation order is defined, but the evaluation of rhs doesnt affect the lfs | 16:56 |
inz | lhs | 16:56 |
villemv | right | 16:56 |
slaine_ | What flame war are we on at the moment ? | 16:56 |
villemv | slaine_: "is Qt standard C++" | 16:56 |
villemv | slaine_: which it is, obviously ;-) | 16:57 |
MisterN | slaine_: they are exploring what c++ is. | 16:57 |
slaine_ | Hmm, my C++ consists of C with classes | 16:57 |
javispedro | we are wasting some time before lunch :) | 16:57 |

w00t_ | MisterN: call me a masochist | 16:58 |

*** yanli has joined #meego | 16:58 | |
w00t_ | slaine_: what's next on the agenda? the merits of emacs? | 16:58 |
javispedro | slaine_: oh, lucky you. :( | 16:58 |
slaine_ | I think that was covered on Tuesday evening | 16:58 |
MisterN | w00t_: but it's ok. some people will even debate whether c++ is a different language than c. | 16:58 |
poutsi | "which desktop environment is best for meego development"? | 16:59 |
inz | slaine, did you do apt vs rpm already? | 16:59 |
* w00t_ stabs inz in the eyesockets | 16:59 | |

w00t_ | or something like that | 17:04 |
* w00t_ forgets it now, was discussed long long ago | 17:04 | |
javispedro | --i++ depends mostly on the operator precedence I guess, but I believe it's pretty well defined otherwise. | 17:05 |
w00t_ | IIRC it's deceptive in that it looks well defined but it's not | 17:05 |
w00t_ | but I'd have to go reading | 17:05 |

javispedro | the maemo toolchain also has reversed signedness vs gcc x86. | 17:09 |
javispedro | (of char) | 17:09 |
javispedro | which causes hard to track bugs sometimes... :( | 17:09 |
w00t_ | it was something like getopt() in a loop with a char, while != -1 or something | 17:09 |
w00t_ | and of course, it using unsigned char on PPC, meant that bad things happened | 17:09 |

CosmoHill | how easy is it to do that? | 17:53 |
Jaffa | CosmoHill: It's called the text-zoom feature in your web browser. Try holding Ctrl and scrolling up & down on your mouse wheel ;-) | 17:54 |
bva | CosmoHill: If you implement it from scratch building its not that hard | 17:54 |
CosmoHill | I'm making a wesbite and have been told to research it | 17:54 |
Stskeeps | bva: there's many different areas to help out in :) | 17:55 |
villemv | rule #1: have sensible size text | 17:55 |
bva | I think you better go to #php or any other language you are using | 17:55 |
Stskeeps | bva: when the structures start appearing, i'm sure you'll find a spot | 17:55 |

*** Jophish_n900 has quit IRC | 18:03 | |
th0br0 | ;) true. | 18:03 |
kebax | what is the first target for meego? ARM? | 18:03 |
th0br0 | kebax: arm and x86 i gues | 18:04 |
th0br0 | s | 18:04 |
bva | so did ppl decided to go for a combined packaging syustem or just solo RPM ? | 18:04 |
kebax | okay, so mobile-ux for arm and netbook-ux for atom.. er, sorry.. x86 | 18:05 |
th0br0 | meego will be using yum, bva... | 18:05 |
th0br0 | therefore separated packages for all architecutres. | 18:05 |
*** oneshel has joined #meego | 18:06 | |
*** truslack has quit IRC | 18:07 | |
th0br0 | btw, is that rpm vs deb still the same trolling thread it was at the beginnign? | 18:07 |
*** truslack has joined #meego | 18:07 | |
kebax | how is architechture separation dependable on package sysetm? | 18:08 |
*** derMicha has quit IRC | 18:08 | |
th0br0 | kebax: it is not. but i don't know whether it's rpm or yum, but ... oh... | 18:09 |
th0br0 | i misunderstood bva's question i guess. | 18:09 |
kebax | I did not undestand that eiher | 18:09 |
th0br0 | no, it's yum for both architectures. only that ofc you've got different rpms for the 2 architectures, not both in one ;) | 18:09 |
th0br0 | kebax: i think he wanted to know whether meego would use sth like apt or yum or interface with rpm directly | 18:10 |
bva | well, it was about the RPM vs DEB thinghy. I followed the discussion a bit and ppl are agreeing in supporting both at the same time | 18:10 |
*** Mertokk has quit IRC | 18:10 | |
javispedro | bof | 18:10 |

th0br0 | both at the same time? that's ... crazy. | 18:11 |
*** Brett1 has joined #meego | 18:11 | |
th0br0 | and completely unlogical... that requires twice the amount of qa and whatnot. | 18:11 |

th0br0 | mh, ok, so it's not really important ;) | 18:11 |
bva | probably | 18:11 |

*** flavioribeiro has joined #meego | 18:13 | |
th0br0 | yeah. i think pretty much the same way although i have got a yum/rpm "background" ;) | 18:13 |
bva | unless they have a valid reason for it and know what they are talking about | 18:13 |
kebax | er, isnt maemo packaged in deb? | 18:14 |
th0br0 | there has been no eta on code so far, has there? | 18:14 |
th0br0 | kebax: it is; meego however will be packaged in rpm | 18:14 |
*** ian_brasil has quit IRC | 18:14 | |
X-Fade | You have to understand that the largest vocal community is coming from maemo.org and they know deb. | 18:14 |
X-Fade | So they come from that standpoint. | 18:14 |
kebax | well, I heard a long time ago that moblin was planning deb packaging | 18:15 |
th0br0 | yeah X-Fade i know. | 18:15 |
th0br0 | http://repo.meego.com/trunk/repo/ia32/os/image-config/default-vm.ks << nice to see that meego will be vm-able without problems... or so it seems | 18:15 |
*** hbons has joined #meego | 18:16 | |

leinir | 'lo :) | 20:53 |
leinir | wow, it's been quiet in here the last couple of hours! :) | 20:53 |
sh0gun | Nokia said some tim before, that UI for new Symbian and Maemo 6 will be the same. These plans are not true anymore since merging with Moblin? | 20:54 |
leinir | sh0gun: That's an odd statement... | 20:54 |
leinir | Wait, are you sure they did not mean that the same framework can be used to create applications for both? | 20:54 |
leinir | Rather than the UI actually being the same... | 20:54 |
RST38h | Nokia intends to use two different qt based frameworks for maemo and symbian | 20:55 |
sh0gun | sure that framework, but I'm pretty sure that I read about UI too | 20:55 |
sh0gun | let me find it again | 20:55 |
*** bef0rd has joined #meego | 20:55 | |

*** mindfunk has quit IRC | 20:57 | |
sh0gun | hmm, ok lets say that it was in dream :D.... anyway, Nokia just released Maemo 6 UI couple of days ago, seems that they put a lot of work into it, is it going to be used in MeeGo? | 20:57 |

*** timeless_mbp has joined #meego | 20:59 | |
*** timeless_mbp has joined #meego | 20:59 | |
th0br0 | different ones sh0gun | 21:00 |
sh0gun | because I have seen UI of Maemo 6 and it doesn't look very nice, Moblin seems far nicer for me | 21:00 |
th0br0 | at least, according to the architecture page. | 21:00 |
sh0gun | aha | 21:00 |
sh0gun | so it is highly possible that MeeGo will continue in Maemo 6 UI? | 21:00 |
RST38h | It will probably be Maemo6 UI | 21:01 |
*** eean has quit IRC | 21:01 | |
RST38h | With some additions from Moblin | 21:01 |
sh0gun | good | 21:01 |
RST38h | based on the fact that Moblin adopts Qt | 21:01 |
RST38h | and that it has been using Nokia's Hildon all along | 21:01 |

koupsa | not same projest? | 21:07 |

*** ScriptRipper has quit IRC | 21:07 | |
tripz0 | not really | 21:08 |
tripz0 | ubuntu moblin is ubuntu's core with moblin UI on top | 21:08 |
tripz0 | it's not just a rebranded version of moblin | 21:08 |
Jaffa | Hmmm. Have the mailing lists now died completely or did all the RPM/deb discussions die out? | 21:08 |
tripz0 | ubuntu literally deb packaged up moblin packages for their own distro | 21:09 |

RevdKathy | reverend, th0br0. Methodist | 22:17 |
th0br0 | ah ok :) | 22:17 |
Stskeeps | RevdKathy: you're on vodafone or how was it? | 22:17 |

th0br0 | never learned scheme, although i know that they're learning it at one of the universities i'm close to | 22:22 |

Suurorca | scheme is quite funny | 22:23 |
RevdKathy | Stskeeps... deep down, yes. Trying to look enthusiastic. But we're losing a lot | 22:23 |
RevdKathy | Stskeeps... that's just between us 417, isn't it? | 22:23 |
*** TomaszD has quit IRC | 22:23 | |

*** mikhas has quit IRC | 22:24 | |
Stskeeps | if we were to go in the traditional iterative pace | 22:24 |
th0br0 | villemv: but it's a good idea... i should get 'em to tell me code. that'd be awesome. | 22:24 |
RevdKathy | for the OS, yes. Maybe less for the devices and the community. Huge gain for the OS | 22:24 |
th0br0 | what was the record? | 22:24 |
Stskeeps | RevdKathy: from a developer point of view, it was a huge benefit to have many different device communities work together | 22:24 |
RevdKathy | This is thoughtful: http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p=535152&postcount=79 | 22:25 |
Stskeeps | as we had more in common than we were different | 22:25 |
villemv | perhaps asking on meego-dev will help find likeminded people | 22:25 |
RevdKathy | I think it's probably good for the developers - I hope so. In the end they're the drivers | 22:25 |
polac | villemv, Hi, long time no see... :) | 22:25 |
*** TomaszD has joined #meego | 22:25 | |
RevdKathy | I'd love to have some real interaction with the moblin people | 22:25 |

arjan | RevdKathy: what kind of interaction do you want? | 22:26 |
Stskeeps | RevdKathy: my biggest worry until this morning was that this was a corporate run project without community in mind, until you end up talking to one of the 'dictators' (we need a better word) | 22:26 |

arjan | RevdKathy: sure | 22:27 |

villemv | polac: for a moment I was thinking whether you were one of the guys who worked at uiq. apparently not :-) | 22:27 |
polac | villemv, no you are not. You probably just do not remember me anymore. | 22:27 |

th0br0 | Stskeeps: especially as not everyone's got a cloak. | 22:32 |
arjan | RevdKathy: yes | 22:32 |
RevdKathy | :-) | 22:32 |
Stskeeps | 'lo suihkulokki | 22:32 |
arjan | RevdKathy: I work on moblin a lot, mostly overall architecture, boot time, performance, power management but well all over the map in practice | 22:32 |
RevdKathy | You don't have ordinary end users, though do you. Our community has a lot of us (for good and ill!) | 22:32 |
Stskeeps | th0br0: i registered for a group on freenode | 22:32 |
th0br0 | for meego? | 22:32 |
Stskeeps | th0br0: aye | 22:32 |
th0br0 | can you do that? don't you normally have to supply them with far more information? | 22:33 |
arjan | RevdKathy: it's more a corporate kind of community... so I think moblin and maemo are nicely complementary | 22:33 |
Stskeeps | th0br0: well, the community isn't exactly built up atm. | 22:33 |
RevdKathy | How to the moblin peole feel about us spartan hordes? We're very noisy | 22:33 |
CosmoHill | i'm installing windows movie maker and i swear SQL server CE just went by on the install screen... | 22:33 |
* slaine_ jumps up and down | 22:33 | |
slaine_ | I'm a Moblin user | 22:33 |
arjan | RevdKathy: I don't mind noisy from people who contribute :) | 22:33 |
Clay | me too | 22:33 |
th0br0 | Yeah, Stskeeps | 22:33 |
slaine_ | Ugh, that sounds like one of those crappy ads | 22:33 |
CosmoHill | RevdKathy: you from meade? | 22:33 |
arjan | RevdKathy: I do mind noisy from people who never contribute anything but are only loud and annoying ;) | 22:33 |
CosmoHill | (the non moblin one) | 22:33 |
wazd | arjan: ah, thank god I can talk loud then :D | 22:34 |
CosmoHill | i should have just said nokia | 22:34 |
Stskeeps | th0br0: but it's important to get these things started already as well, we're a big channel already, big community :) | 22:34 |
th0br0 | true. | 22:34 |
arjan | RevdKathy: it seems that on monday we had mostly the former; while saner minds are now here | 22:34 |
RevdKathy | Thanks arjan - that's the distinction I make. Though sometimes people make quite a lot of noise before they get around to contributing | 22:34 |
wazd | Stskeeps: we should convince infobot to join us here :) | 22:34 |
arjan | RevdKathy: true; sometimes. but sometimes it's just to be loud. | 22:34 |
arjan | RevdKathy: I don't mind talking with loud people who are there to help/contribute/etc... I rather do not waste time with those who are just loud to be disruptive | 22:35 |
arjan | (like we had a lot on monday here) | 22:35 |
RevdKathy | I'd love to be able to create a structure that would... quieten... the disruptors | 22:35 |
arjan | quite. | 22:35 |
arjan | not easy though | 22:35 |
jeremiah_ | I think a healthy debate is fine. | 22:35 |
arjan | well it seems the disruptors mostly have gone away now.... time solved that for us | 22:36 |
arjan | jeremiah_: oh absolutely. | 22:36 |
RevdKathy | But we do like to have fun, too - there's a lot of playfulness at maemo.org | 22:36 |
jeremiah_ | :) | 22:36 |
RevdKathy | we still have a few | 22:36 |
* RevdKathy counts on fingers the real pains | 22:36 | |
Clay | a lot of the disruptors on monday i think were because with the announcement there were very few details | 22:36 |
arjan | I'm an engineer. for me, at the end of the day, it needs to come down to something tangible as outcome | 22:36 |
jeremiah_ | Its hard though, some of these things mean a lot for people | 22:36 |
th0br0 | true Clay... and we still haven't really got much | 22:36 |
jeremiah_ | People have a lot at stake. | 22:36 |
arjan | Clay: if we had many details we'd have gotten "you have done EVERYTHING behind closed doors" instead | 22:37 |
arjan | Clay: just cannot win | 22:37 |
th0br0 | :D | 22:37 |
arjan | th0br0/Clay: I may know many more details | 22:37 |
arjan | if you have specific questions/etc I'm happy to try to answer/explain/etc | 22:37 |
RevdKathy | that's very true: the decisions that were taken people dont like, then they complain that there is no direction on other things | 22:37 |
th0br0 | well, there isn't really much that i want to know right now :) | 22:37 |
arjan | there are some issues I cannot talk about (NDA, busines stuff bla bla) | 22:37 |
arjan | but I'll let you know when that happens | 22:37 |
*** tilppis has joined #meego | 22:37 | |
jeremiah_ | arjan: Are there plans for OBS? | 22:37 |
th0br0 | basically all my questions have been answered so far... rpm, yum, obs, no upstream... | 22:37 |
arjan | jeremiah_: as in "when will it go live" ? | 22:38 |
th0br0 | my only question would be :when do we see code or a running system? ;) | 22:38 |
Clay | arjan: maybe some would say that, but for the majority i dont think thats true. moblin has never really had a clear roadmap thats available to people outside the company | 22:38 |
th0br0 | but then, i guess it'll be soon anyway. | 22:38 |
jeremiah_ | arjan: I was thinking a bit more basic. :) | 22:38 |
arjan | my current guess is 2 weeks from now | 22:38 |
RST38h | you forgot lsb | 22:38 |
RST38h | lsb is important | 22:38 |
jeremiah_ | But I guess that answers my question | 22:38 |
Clay | arjan: there isn't as much transparency as an open project should have | 22:38 |
arjan | Clay: agreed. | 22:38 |
th0br0 | Clay: maybe that will come with time. | 22:38 |
jeremiah_ | Clay: What parts do you want open? | 22:38 |
arjan | a lot of moblin also has been rather pragmatic "lets get stuff done" more than 3 year plans | 22:38 |
arjan | (that then don't mean anything anyway) | 22:38 |
th0br0 | but yeah... right now, this community exists solely on basis of the webpage and the announcement | 22:38 |
RST38h | Screw transparency, fill up the web site with content at least | 22:39 |
* cworth shakes hands back with RevdKathy | 22:39 | |
Clay | RST38h: thats part of it | 22:39 |
RevdKathy | Hi cworth :) | 22:39 |
Clay | so many questions, not many answers | 22:39 |
Clay | thus people making a rumble | 22:39 |
arjan | anyway in terms of roadmap... we want a release out in "Q2" (assume somewhere in May, but this is still in flux) | 22:39 |
RevdKathy | Where are most of the mobline people, btw? Maemo tends to be very eurocentric | 22:39 |
*** Thysdrus has quit IRC | 22:39 | |
arjan | RevdKathy: we have a group in the UK, and the rest is westcoast US | 22:39 |
polac | you people mentioned helping and contributing to meego. Is there allready something bite size to start with? Or should beginner like me wait until the 'infrastructured' is properly build? | 22:39 |
RST38h | arjan: release for what hardware? | 22:40 |
*** ondra has quit IRC | 22:40 | |
arjan | RST38h: x86 netbook for sure, arm/phone is more likeyl a developer kind of thing | 22:40 |
*** caffe has joined #meego | 22:40 | |
arjan | (eg there will be stuff like that, but it's a different level of maturity) | 22:40 |
RST38h | arjan: So, no N900 version? | 22:40 |
arjan | RST38h: I doubt it'll work entirely perfect as a phone OS for n900 | 22:40 |
RST38h | (because netbook version is kinda uninteresting, given Windows/Linux availability) | 22:41 |
arjan | RST38h: but that also depends on how much others want to contribute to make it happen for n900 | 22:41 |
timeless_mbp | arjan: so, i'm looking for someone who runs dns for meego.com | 22:41 |
RST38h | arjan: even something at the scale of Mer would be nice | 22:41 |
Stskeeps | arjan: we made a ofono dialing on Mer on n900, shouldn't be that far off :) | 22:41 |
arjan | timeless_mbp: I can get you in touch; msg me and I'll give you some email addresses | 22:41 |
arjan | RST38h/Stskeeps: this is also where we need your help ;) | 22:44 |
arjan | most of us moblin/intel guys don't tend to work on arm stuff | 22:44 |
th0br0 | what about the nokia guys? | 22:44 |
timeless_mbp | arjan: roughly i'd like to setup something like mxr.maemo.org | 22:44 |
timeless_mbp | for meego | 22:44 |
RST38h | is Nokia participating in MeeGo development at all? | 22:44 |
timeless_mbp | th0br0: most of us nokia guys don't tend to work on intel stuff | 22:44 |
RST38h | at the OS level I mean? | 22:44 |
arjan | RST38h: yes | 22:44 |
th0br0 | timeless_mbp: i was talking about the arm stuff | 22:44 |
arjan | RST38h: but there's that maemo6 distraction for them as well | 22:44 |
arjan | :) | 22:44 |
RST38h | ah ok | 22:44 |
RST38h | that explains it =) | 22:44 |
pinchartl | arjan: distraction ? :-) | 22:44 |
pinchartl | arjan: let's say instead that all the work done on Maemo6 will end up in MeeGo ;-) | 22:44 |

*** OgMaciel has joined #meego | 22:44 | |
arjan | but "next gen development" and "working on finishing a product" are different resource sinks | 22:44 |
timeless_mbp | pinchartl: very funny | 22:44 |
RST38h | pinchartl: Oh will it? | 22:44 |
arjan | all OS vendors have that nice tension ;-) | 22:44 |
*** simula_ has quit IRC | 22:44 | |
Stskeeps | arjan: a silly question, is moblin/meego currently built for ARM as well? | 22:44 |
Stskeeps | just wondering how big challenge things are atm | 22:44 |
pinchartl | RST38h: everybody hates working on code that will be thrown away for the next version of the product, so I certainly hope most of the code will be useful :-) | 22:44 |
*** povbot has joined #meego | 22:45 | |
RST38h | pinchartl: "hope" or "know"? | 22:45 |
arjan | Stskeeps: but hopefully enough that you can start working on it ;) | 22:45 |
*** trbs has quit IRC | 22:45 | |
Stskeeps | arjan: fair enough - the problem is really if we're going to spend months adding and patching the machine room or it's a matter of adding ARM support to imagers and so on | 22:46 |
RST38h | Stskeeps: we kinda got Moblin 2.2 live cd to boot on a plain /dev/fb0, if it helps | 22:46 |
Stskeeps | machine room being the base libraries :) | 22:46 |
RST38h | Stskeeps: the cpu is still atom though | 22:46 |
pinchartl | RST38h: hope. Maemo6 is huge, I don't know what all of its parts will become in MeeGo | 22:46 |
*** trbs has joined #meego | 22:46 | |
*** Miico has quit IRC | 22:47 | |
arjan | hopefully you guys get X working | 22:47 |
arjan | without X it'll suck | 22:47 |
Stskeeps | ah, if it's at that layer than no issue | 22:47 |
RST38h | as I said, the Developer Edition boots on the plain frame buffer | 22:47 |
slaine_ | How does ARM handle the DRI2 layer ? | 22:47 |
slaine_ | is that available ? | 22:47 |
Stskeeps | slaine_: welcome to the arm platform, where x86 sanity doesn't always exist :) | 22:47 |
RST38h | hehe. | 22:47 |
arjan | that's up to the people providing the graphics driver | 22:48 |
RST38h | Forget DRI2. | 22:48 |
Stskeeps | you're more likely to have custom libGLES and so on | 22:48 |
slaine_ | so no kernel level drm for either then ? | 22:48 |
arjan | in this case that's more likely a question for a nokia guy, not for me | 22:48 |
Stskeeps | and maybe a fbdev with SGX acceleration in some areas | 22:48 |
pinchartl | Stskeeps: packages might build on ARM, but integrating the platform-specific kernel drivers with the userspace software is complex and will take time | 22:48 |
RST38h | arjan: That would be ImageTech and they do not normally provide shit | 22:48 |
*** flightplan has quit IRC | 22:48 | |
suihkulokki | ie. just like GMA500... | 22:48 |
pinchartl | slaine_: let me check | 22:48 |
MelisU | arjan: Isn't the ARM side doomed because the gfx drivers are all closed? Moblin was always the newest kernel right? How is that going to work? | 22:49 |
slaine_ | suihkulokki: don't mention the war | 22:49 |
Stskeeps | MelisU: noone says there can't be closed userland libs and open kernel drivers | 22:49 |
arjan | MelisU: powervr has no binary kerenl parts | 22:49 |
arjan | only X | 22:49 |
Stskeeps | or even closed pieces in a MeeGo system | 22:49 |
arjan | afaik | 22:49 |
arjan | life is always easier if you have open drivers | 22:49 |
arjan | and personally, I'm happy for that | 22:49 |
pinchartl | slaine_: on the N900 at least there's not DRI2, and the userspace part is closed-source if I'm not mistaken | 22:49 |
suihkulokki | slaine_: sorry, just joined, no idea of what previously have been flamed here | 22:50 |
Stskeeps | suihkulokki: besides RPM vs DEB, not much ;) | 22:50 |
slaine_ | suihkulokki: was kinda joking, but gma500 makes me shudder | 22:50 |
*** rillian has joined #meego | 22:50 | |
slaine_ | unfortunately, it sounds just like where the n900 hardware is | 22:50 |
ShadowJK | With powervr having the stronghold it has, I imagine the situation on ARM is pretty identical to the situation with x86 and gma500? | 22:50 |
Stskeeps | pinchartl: the GLES libraries are closed source yes, but not xserver-xorg-video-fbdev | 22:50 |
ShadowJK | yeah | 22:50 |
*** lizardo has quit IRC | 22:51 | |
slaine_ | infact, didn't imagatech provide the 3d core for the gma500 too ? | 22:51 |
pinchartl | Stskeeps: with GLES it's a bit pointless, isn't it ? | 22:51 |
MelisU | Stskeeps: OK, but those binary parts need to keep up with the kernel and X .. that usually doesn't work so well | 22:51 |
suihkulokki | Stskeeps: I expected that, that is why no joining earlier ;) | 22:51 |
slaine_ | MelisU: which is exactly where pulsbo failed | 22:51 |
Stskeeps | MelisU: actually it works kinda well if you don't toy around with switches | 22:51 |
ShadowJK | MelisU, at the moment I think the missing touchscreen kernel in newer kernels is a bigger issue :D | 22:51 |
arjan | MelisU: that'll depend on Nokia | 22:51 |
arjan | (just like gma500 depends on intel) | 22:51 |
pinchartl | to get the powervr driver open sourced we need to push hard enough. maybe the joint Nokia-Intel effort will have more influence than Nokia alone | 22:52 |
RST38h | You will not get powervr driver open sourced. | 22:52 |
slaine_ | Or intel alone | 22:52 |
RST38h | forget it | 22:52 |
Stskeeps | but yes, Nokia being 'the good hw vendor' in MeeGo will be interesting to see if happens | 22:52 |
Stskeeps | (yes, i know imgtec is another company, but for other parts of the system, battery management, etc) | 22:52 |
slaine_ | lol, it's good cop bad cop now is it | 22:53 |
pinchartl | slaine_: it's always been good cop bad cop, but inside a single company until now | 22:53 |
arjan | my personal goal is to make the intel side play as well as we can (and gma500 is "lalalalalala I can't hear you" '=) | 22:53 |
slaine_ | rofl | 22:53 |
arjan | and hopefully hw vendors realize that playing nice with meego in that regard is in their own business interest | 22:53 |
suihkulokki | .o( we could just all buy imagenation stock until we have enough voting power together to force them to opensource the driver ) | 22:54 |
slaine_ | +1 | 22:54 |
RST38h | not imagetech, I guess | 22:54 |
MelisU | gma500: Intel was young and needed the money :P | 22:54 |
slaine_ | lol | 22:54 |
pinchartl | arjan: it will be easier for Intel, as the same company develops the OS and the GPU. on the powervr side we'll have much more troubles | 22:54 |
slaine_ | I don't that powervr stuff was isolated to the gma500 though | 22:55 |
slaine_ | isn't there a new generation gpu with the same licensing issues ? | 22:55 |

ShadowJK | moblin+maemo=meego thing piqued my interest in meego, which amusingly makes me far less interested in the Nokia Booklet 3g (gma500) :D | 22:56 |

MelisU | yeah, Meego may have a lot of rough edges for some time, but I think it will be worth it and people will be interested | 22:58 |

*** glezos is now known as glezos_afk | 22:58 | |
slaine_ | RST38h: yeah, possbily, I find the naming hard to penetrate | 22:59 |
RST38h | slaine: The wiki page makes it kinda clear | 22:59 |
MelisU | Moblin was seen as Intel and Maemo as Nokia .. Now they should get all the Genivi guys on the homepage (like BMW etc). That would help even more | 22:59 |
MelisU | BMW joins the Linux Foundation would be a cool headline | 22:59 |

*** jreznik has joined #meego | 23:27 | |
Stskeeps | villemv_fake: gcc isn't traditionally shipped on devices though? but yes, this policy is going to hurt at times :P | 23:28 |
* villemv_fake is hoping to "some day" see c++0x | 23:28 | |
villemv_fake | Stskeeps: apple has an issue with that. I don't think that makes any sense either | 23:28 |
villemv_fake | Stskeeps: obviously I mean "using gpl3 for build tools" | 23:28 |
Stskeeps | villemv_fake: i think they want to see more cases related to gpl3 and how it's interpreted | 23:29 |

jeremiah_ | hey jebba | 23:58 |

mikeleib | it's true | 23:58 |
