I hope that adding them will at least do that... 00:06 < knurd> | we just need to put in in words over the next few days somehow 00:06 < Jeff_S> | Yes, it may be nice to enable them for now and see what other "better" things we could do in the future... 00:06 < knurd> | Jeff_S, +1 00:06 < f13> | christ, how many times are you going to bring this up and how many times are we all going to say that we don't want them, please go away? 00:07 < nirik> | always and forever... 00:07 < f13> | are you just hoping to play meeting bingo and find the one time that enough people are absent so it'll pass? 00:07 < knurd> | f13, no, we are discussing it in private currently 00:07 < nirik> | so in that case can we move on in this meeting instead of talking about it again? 00:08 < knurd> | nirik, +1 00:08 < stahnma> | +1 00:08 < knurd> | I was just about to do that 00:08 --- | knurd has changed the topic to: EPEL Meeting -- EPEL mock configs in Fedora's mock package -- dglimore 00:08 < knurd> | has anybody proper and tested config files already? 00:08 < knurd> | I wrote some weeks ago and posted them to the list 00:08 < nirik> | I have some here I have been using...

Otherwise we have to wait for koji. ;( 00:17 < dgilmore> | knurd: im going to be looking at koji for setting up secondary archs so i wont have time to do it 00:18 --> | llaumgui (LLaumgui) has joined #fedora-meeting 00:18 < lmacken> | well... 00:18 < lmacken> | after last week, bodhi is heavily tied into koji/mash 00:18 < dgilmore> | lmacken: thats what i thought 00:18 < lmacken> | i removed most of the old push-style code 00:18 * | nirik suspected, but thought asking couldn't hurt. 00:18 < dgilmore> | it would take some major rewriting to make it work with plague now 00:19 < lmacken> | mashing the repos and then trying to squeeze stuff into it (other than updateinfo), would be a serious pain. 00:19 < lmacken> | dgilmore: yeah 00:19 < knurd> | not worth the effort I'd say 00:19 < nirik> | ok, so we need to try and move koji forward. Who would be the one to deal with that? mbonnet ? 00:19 < lmacken> | koji is the way to go 00:19 < knurd> | so let's target koji for EPEL first 00:19 < knurd> | and then bodhi 00:19 < dgilmore> | nirik: i imagine its a low priority thing for mbonnet 00:19 < dgilmore> | though i have discussed it with him 00:20 < nirik> | yeah. 00:20 < knurd> | can somebody ask mbonnet for a status update 00:20 < knurd> | then we can evaluate how to move on 00:20 < dgilmore> | what we need is to be able to mark builds as private so they dont show up anywhere 00:20 --> | fab (Fabrice Bellet) has joined #fedora-meeting 00:20 < dgilmore> | its a fairly major undertaking 00:20 * | mmcgrath wonders if we'll get backlash for that. 00:21 < mmcgrath> | its not very open of us. 00:21 < nirik> | so should we consider building with centos then? 00:21 < stahnma> | I certainly don't like it 00:21 < knurd> | nirik, then we can't build for ppc 00:21 < dgilmore> | mmcgrath: its also useful for Security embargoed builds 00:21 < knurd> | dgilmore, +1 00:21 < Jeff_S> | dgilmore: don't we want all EPEL builds public, but only have the RH base+Updates private? 00:21 < mmcgrath> | dgilmore: ahh, thats true. 00:21 < dgilmore> | Jeff_S: yes thats what we need to do 00:21 < dgilmore> | EPEL will be free and open 00:21 < stahnma> | ++ 00:21 < knurd> | +1 00:22 < dgilmore> | We cant make the RHEL binaries free and publicly available 00:22 < Jeff_S> | dgilmore: sorry I misunderstood you before :) OK 00:22 < knurd> | dgilmore, can you talk to mbonnet about his short term plans and report the findings? 00:22 < dgilmore> | so its a nice feature for the buildsys but its very invasive 00:22 < knurd> | that would be the next step for now 00:23 < knurd> | he said two weeks ago that it wouldn't be that hard to realize 00:23 < dgilmore> | knurd: last i talked with him it was not even on the radar to be done 00:23 < dgilmore> | i will follow up with him 00:23 < knurd> | dgilmore, many thx 00:23 * | knurd will move on 00:24 --- | knurd has changed the topic to: EPEL Meeting -- vacant seat in the steering committee 00:24 < knurd> | I suppose we still want to solve the repotags stuff first? 00:24 < nirik> | has anyone expressed interest in the seat? 00:24 < stahnma> | I dunno, has anyone spoken up? 00:25 < Jeff_S> | I wrote knurd to let him know I was interested 00:25 --> | lancelan (Lance Davis) has joined #fedora-meeting 00:25 --> | lancelan (Lance Davis) has joined #fedora-meeting 00:25 --> | lancelan (Lance Davis) has joined #fedora-meeting 00:25 --> | lancelan (Lance Davis) has joined #fedora-meeting 00:25 < knurd> | well, there was some confusion; we have two volunteers, but one stepped back for now until the repotags issue is solved 00:25 < knurd> | and well, Jeff_S is the other one ;-) 00:25 < knurd> | let's solve the repotags issue first (over the next week), and solve this afterwards 00:26 < knurd> | Jeff_S, that okay for you? 00:26 < Jeff_S> | knurd: sure 00:26 --- | knurd has changed the topic to: EPEL Meeting -- finish the wiki docs and remove the warnings -- quaid 00:26 < knurd> | skipping, quaid not around 00:26 --- | knurd has changed the topic to: EPEL Meeting -- template for requesting a contributer to get 00:26 < knurd> | their packages into EPEL 00:26 --- | knurd has changed the topic to: EPEL Meeting -- template for requesting a contributer to get their packages into EPEL 00:26 < knurd> | stahnma, sorry, I did not look at this 00:27 < knurd> | but I think it's a good idea 00:27 < stahnma> | it's ok 00:27 < knurd> | shall we discuss it on the list in the next days? 00:27 < stahnma> | I just drafted something up 00:27 < stahnma> | sure 00:27 < knurd> | stahnma, k, thx 00:27 < stahnma> | I think a couple portions could be clearer 00:27 --- | knurd has changed the topic to: EPEL Meeting -- free discussions 00:27 < stahnma> | plz review 00:27 --- | knurd has changed the topic to: EPEL Meeting -- free discussion 00:27 < knurd> | stahnma, will do! 00:27 < knurd> | so, anything else to discuss? 00:27 < stahnma> | I saw that some packages were announced as built 00:28 < stahnma> | but didn't show up in a repo 00:28 < stahnma> | like trac 00:28 < stahnma> | is that normal? 00:28 < nirik> | which repo were you checking? might not have mirrored out yet? 00:28 < knurd> | it takes an hour until packagers hit the public servers 00:28 < knurd> | did you look right after the report was send? 00:28 < stahnma> | maybe I was too amitious 00:28 < stahnma> | not sure 00:29 < stahnma> | if I do yum list available today, I still don't see trac 00:29 < nirik> | Odd.
