TechnicalBoardAgenda

Please use this page to add items for the Agenda of the Ubuntu Technical Board. Please see the [http://www.ubuntulinux.org/community/processes/governance Ubuntu Governance] page for details on participation.

The next meeting of the Board will be on:

2006-01-17 at 2000UTC

in channel #ubuntu-meeting on chat.freenode.net. The agenda will include the following:

  • Design of first-time sudo help (MartinPitt)

  • Status of popcon.u.c (LucasNussbaum, also see [http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ubuntu.devel/14364 thread on u-devel@]): popcon.u.c hasn't been updated since June 2005. While it's mostly useless for main packages (all users have the default set of packages installed), it is very useful for universe to determine wich packages should get the more attention. Could popcon be fixed ? By whom ? How could we ask our users to enable it (u-d-a@ email, blog entries) ? (it is disabled by default for obvious privacy reasons)

  • Xubuntu Dapper(JaniMonoses) - UVF exception for Xfce and related packages? Possibility of ISO building on and downloading from Canonical machines (not necessarily daily)?

  • Joey Hess (Debian Developer) request to remove his name for packages which are not bit-identical to code/binaries as in Debian. (Read his request to ubuntu-motu: http://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-motu/2006-January/000139.html ). (StephanHermann)

    • Eventually I can not attend this meeting, but here are some points for discussion:
      1. Introduction of new fields for debian/control (Debian-Maintainer, Ubuntu-Maintainer, including changes in dpkg-genchanges.pl)
      2. Replacing Maintainer and Uploader (aka Co-Maintainer) field manually and adding a note in debian/copyright
      3. Nothing at all, and let's move on
  • libpam-foreground integration (MatthewGarrett)

  • UVF for universe (exception handling, proxies) (StefanPotyra aka sistpoty)

  • GPL vs GPL-2 in debian/copyright (JonathanRiddell and the MOTU)

  • Other business
  • Update the agenda for the next meeting
