Bazaar standup notes 2011-10-04

jam

* Debugging test suite hangs. Will test patch on babune today.
* Working on client reconnection. Got it going for disconnection during writing

NEXT: cleanly handle disconnections while reading.

jelmer

* Discussions about multiple tarball imports (w/ James W). Should land this week.
* Disabling 'mirror' branches on Launchpad, and changing it to 'import' the branches, so we have one daemon that fetches data from other locations, rather than 2 depending on 'native' vs 'foreign'.
* bfbia, should have a branch of Launchpad up for review this week.
* RT for having newer bzr and bzr-builder on the Launchpad Buildd machines (recipe builds). Needs backports for hardy and lucid-cat. Lamont requested to not backport quilt, rather to get newer bzr working with older quilt.
* Want updated bzr on jubany (running Lucid), hopefully can be shared with newer bzr for buildds.

NEXT:
 * bfbia
 * getting RT for builders unblocked
 * get a USB headset. 

gz

* Last week bugs, landed pack_stat branches <http://pad.lv/683191>, <http://pad.lv/706957>, did a fix for bzr-builddeb to get familiar <http://pad.lv/853664>, made branch for a fix by jam <http://pad.lv/864217>.
* Monday memory! Started helping debug an OOM issue over the weekend, need to understand some of the internals better. Looked at one operation in detail using pdb and meliae, found some interesting things.
* When doing 'switch' between branches in the same repository, you end up opening the repository twice, and end up reading the data from both sides.

NEXT: land alread approved merge proposals, http://pad.lv/508258

poolie

* helping mrevell with hiring <http://blog.launchpad.net/were-hiring/were-hiring-software-engineer-and-a-usability-and-communications-specialist>
* landed "bug affects me" lp improvements <http://blog.launchpad.net/general/finding-bugs-that-affect-you>
* bzr-git debugging 
* some work on OAuth SSH support in Launchpad <https://dev.launchpad.net/LEP/SSH_OAuth> - not planning to code it, just talked to mwh and lifeless

NEXT: reviews, lp hiring, make a lazr.restfulclient release, Tarmac setup

riddell

* udd workflows, determine why udd isn't sufficient for his work.
* Added command bzr get-orig-source
* Need suitable hook at bzr branch level?
* Hard to inspect because by default 'bzr builddeb' cleans up the result.

NEXT: check up on i18n progress. help gz with http://pad.lv/508258 maybe?
 maybe http://pad.lv/766757 work on surveying the existing mps, and see which ones are useful and which ones are not.

=323),
* cleaned up https://launchpad.net/bzr/+milestones tracking future releases should be easier for everybody,
