Jan 06 10:47 <chen> lol yeah :) thanks dave_largo!!

Jan 06 10:48 <dave_largo> I already starting moving some things over, it's going to take a while

Jan 06 10:48 <treitter> (also here)

Jan 06 10:48 <dave_largo> I can't work on it fulltime

Jan 06 10:48 <chen> please update the roadmap page in the wiki for the task updates..

Jan 06 10:49 <chen> dave_largo, we can share it between all of us as it definetly requires some manual work

Jan 06 10:50 <dave_largo> Yeah, I'm not deleting anything from the old pages, just moving over the information slowly

Jan 06 10:50 <chen> we need to re-look at the status of the major tasks and the fix the regression issues due to lot of changes made to call 2.30 a really stable one..

Jan 06 10:50 <chen> will float a mail initiating a discussion so that akhil, jony and abharath also can join..

Jan 06 10:51 <chen> starting with update from my side,

Jan 06 10:51 <chen> primarily working on fetching mails and cleanup things. would be getting the idle support ready by tomorrow and move along with store operations, search and preference options..

Jan 06 10:52 <chen> andre, anything to share?

Jan 06 10:52 <chen> btw we could all share our new year pics :)

Jan 06 10:52 <andre> no

Jan 06 10:52 *chen is sure dave_largo should have had a wonderful time :)

Jan 06 10:52 <andre> my new year pic is here: http://home.arcor.de/ak-47/tmp/vesele-vanoce.jpg

Jan 06 10:53 <chen> dave_largo, anything to share?

Jan 06 10:53 <andre> now everybody back to work.

Jan 06 10:53 <chen> my firefox got stuck

Jan 06 10:53 <dave_largo> Yes, I can get us a good price at Busch Gardens to ride roller coasters...everyone needs to fly down

Jan 06 10:53 <chen> andre, nice :)

Jan 06 10:54 <chen> andre, ur cube mates ? :)

Jan 06 10:54 <chen> jonner, updates?

Jan 06 10:54 <andre> yeah :)

Jan 06 10:54 <chen> dave_largo, anytime :)

Jan 06 10:54 <jonner> I'm working on a fairly major refactor of the mail-mt stuff right now.  will probably need some feedback on my design soon

Jan 06 10:54 <dave_largo> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sheikra

Jan 06 10:54 <dave_largo> chen ^

Jan 06 10:54 <chen> cool

Jan 06 10:54 <chen> mbarnes, updates?

Jan 06 10:55 <mbarnes> just got back from two weeks vacation, so no progress to report

Jan 06 10:55 <mbarnes> my plan for this month is to get serious about kill-bonobo regressions again

Jan 06 10:55 <mbarnes> and, if I can find time, finish and debug the camel-gobject branch for 2.31

Jan 06 10:55 <chen> jonner, we will need to see if all changes need to go into master..

Jan 06 10:55 <chen> if the changes are more, prolly would be better to go with a branch and later merge it with master..

Jan 06 10:55 <jonner> chen, yes, it might not go into master right away to avoid risking regressions

Jan 06 10:56 <chen> mbarnes, yes a right time for bugs :)

Jan 06 10:56 <chen> jonner, cool

Jan 06 10:56 <chen> mcrha, updates?

Jan 06 10:56 <mcrha> trying to recover from a vacation, even it passed quickly here. On various things like usually. And also on some internal things.

Jan 06 10:57 <chen> dave_largo, would love to ride in that :)

Jan 06 10:57 <chen> mcrha, yeah those pass too quickly, perhaps even the whole last year :)

Jan 06 10:57 <chen> Muelli, anything to share?

Jan 06 10:57 <Muelli> chen: nope.

Jan 06 10:58 <chen> treitter, updates?

Jan 06 10:58 <treitter> I factored out my libebook and libecal test suite from my gdbus branch so they can be merged in ASAP. The review request is bug #605709. And I'm still waiting on review of my gdbus branch (though we won't be able to merge it until gdbus and gvariant are in GLib).

Jan 06 10:58 <Muelli> well. maybe we should fix the upgrade path.. It's still broken IIRC. i.e. the update path kills itself.

Jan 06 10:58 <treitter> I'm currently working on factoring out common code for the e-addressbook factory and e-calendar factory

Jan 06 10:59 <treitter> it's turned out to be a lot of work and a bit of new code. We'll see if it's worth it as soon as I'm done (should be between today and Friday)

Jan 06 10:59 <chen> treitter, will look through it sometime this week, though i guess srag/ross is also looking at it..

Jan 06 10:59 <treitter> chen: yup

Jan 06 11:00 <treitter> srag should hopefully be looking at it, though I think he may be on vacation

Jan 06 11:00 <chen> treitter, it would be worth getting it into master asap if it fixes the threading issues better,

Jan 06 11:00 <chen> so that we can get rid of the locks put in for working around it..

Jan 06 11:00 <treitter> chen: yeah, the sooner the better

Jan 06 11:00 <chen> yup right

Jan 06 11:00 <treitter> absolutely

Jan 06 11:01 <chen> Muelli, upgrade path?

Jan 06 11:01 <chen> Muelli, have any bug filed?

Jan 06 11:01 <Muelli> chen: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=600861

Jan 06 11:01 <treitter> I'm also hoping for a review from davidz, since there's a minor issue that prevents us from ripping out dbus-glib entirely

Jan 06 11:01 <treitter> I'll ping him again

Jan 06 11:01 *chen looks at it

Jan 06 11:01 <Muelli> not upgrade. Backup/restore I mean

Jan 06 11:01 *Muelli just got up...

Jan 06 11:02 <chen> Muelli, fine will look over it after the meeting

Jan 06 11:02 <chen> treitter, fine

Jan 06 11:02 <chen> anything else to be discussed ?

Jan 06 11:03 <chen> Next week then at the same time :)

Jan 06 11:03 <chen> hopefully xchat does not cheat me next time ;)

Jan 06 11:03 *lakhil (~lakhil@117.192.28.218) has joined #evolution-meet

Jan 06 11:03 <chen> Thank you everyone!!

Jan 06 11:03 <chen> hey lakhil

Jan 06 11:03 <lakhil> hi chen

Jan 06 11:03 <lakhil> meeting over ?

Jan 06 11:04 <chen> lakhil, ur right at the end of the meeting :)

Jan 06 11:04 <lakhil> :-P

Jan 06 11:04 <lakhil> just back from dinner

Jan 06 11:04 <chen> lakhil, but u can always update us :)

Jan 06 11:04 <chen> lakhil, congrats for being the top bug closer of 2009!!

Jan 06 11:05 <lakhil> bug triaging mostly last week ... learning to build packages :-)

Jan 06 11:05 <lakhil> chen, thanks

Jan 06 11:05 <chen> wow nice :)

Jan 06 11:06 *andre wonders if he can trick mbarnes again into three days of libgnomecanvas killing for 2.30

Jan 06 11:07 *mbarnes wonders too ;)

Jan 06 11:07 <chen> :)

Jan 06 11:07 <lakhil> :D

Jan 06 11:07 <chen> lakhil, now the meeting is over :)

Jan 06 11:08 <lakhil> sure

Jan 06 11:09 <andre> treitter: gdbus and gvariant are not yet in GLib?! sigh

Jan 06 11:10 *andre has an ancient post-it here saying "week 36 of 2009" for that :-(

Jan 06 11:10 *chen is now known as chen|brb

Jan 06 11:13 <treitter> andre: not the last time I checked

Jan 06 11:13 <andre> garr

Jan 06 11:13 <andre> glib and gtk are such a... fscking slow area

Jan 06 11:13 <treitter> I had to install the "gsettings" branch of glib, not the gvariant one, since they had slightly different versions of gvariant

Jan 06 11:13 <treitter> and the master branch didn't have it at all, or something

Jan 06 11:14 <treitter> and I had to use the gdbus-standalone repo

Jan 06 11:15 <mbarnes> andre: moreso glib and gobject
