[06:30] <PaoloRotolo> Good morning
[09:08] <dpm> morning PaoloRotolo :)
[09:52] <PaoloRotolo> hi dpm
[10:37] <coolbhavi> hi PaoloRotolo dpm :) good noon!
[10:41] <PaoloRotolo> hey coolbhavi
[12:55] <dpm> hey coolbhavi :)
[12:56] <coolbhavi> hey dpm
[12:56] <coolbhavi> how have you been?
[12:57] <dpm> busy busy, but well :)
[12:57] <dpm> how's the voting coming along?
[12:57] <coolbhavi> almost done around 90 apps
[12:58] <coolbhavi> still to go
[12:58] <coolbhavi> yours?
[13:02] <coolbhavi> dpm, how to test time widget for harvest?
[13:27] <dpm> coolbhavi, sorry, I don't know, I haven't come to that one
[13:27] <dpm> slow progress here while I'm doing other things
[13:28] <coolbhavi> dpm, no issues figured out it needs a harvest account on getharvest.com
[13:30] <dpm> ok, cool
[15:30] <mhall119> highvoltage: would it be considered bad form for me to review my own app submission and submit it for voting?
[15:36] <mhall119> quickly-gtk is the only app showdown submission in "Needs Review"
[15:37] <dpm> \o/
[15:37] <dpm> I guess you know how to contact the author :)
[15:38] <mhall119> yeah, but I don't want to be the one to give it the green-light for voting
[15:38] <mhall119> unless everyone else is okay with that
[15:51] <dpm> makes sense :)
[15:51] <stgraber> I don't have a problem with that, we're still going to review it as part of the voting process
[15:52] <stgraber> it's not like you're voting on it or anything like that and I'm sure you passed it through the same checks as the rest of the lot
[15:55] <mhall119> stgraber: cool,thanks
[15:59] <mhall119> Pending Review == 0 \o/
[16:17] <highvoltage> mhall119: I can't see a reason why it would be bad form
[16:17] <highvoltage> mhall119: actually I'm fine with any author giving their app up for voting, in an ideal world I guess that's how it would work
[16:18] <highvoltage> mhall119: I think the only reason we mostly do things the way we do now is so that submitters can have an extra step where they get some guidance with their package
[16:27] <mhall119> highvoltage: thanks, I've sent it to the ML
[17:50] <jvrbanac> If someone has a spare moment, could someone move (On Trello) Wizz RSS over to Voting? I re-reviewed the app and the issues have been fixed.
[18:00] <dpm> jvrbanac, done
[18:04] <jvrbanac> dpm, Thanks!
[18:46] <highvoltage> steam4linux!?
[18:46] <highvoltage> and it's gplv3?
[18:49] <stgraber> you didn't read the description apparently ;)
[18:50] <highvoltage> yeah it was rather dissapointing :(
[19:10] <jono> highvoltage, man, you are rocking the voting :-)
[19:14] <pratik_narain> I would like to help reviewing the showdown apps
[19:34] <mhall119> highvoltage: thanks for the votes, can you put your concerns about RedThat and Trading Cards as feedback on their MyApps page?
[19:41] <highvoltage> mhall119: I can't see redthat in myapps, do you have a link?
[19:48] <mhall119> highvoltage: https://myapps.developer.ubuntu.com/dev/apps/1138/

[20:50] <Phoenix87> hallo
[20:50] <Phoenix87> mhall119: hallo! you here?
[20:51] <Phoenix87> i have received your comment on the feedback tab
[20:54] <mhall119> Phoenix87: here
[20:55] <Phoenix87> mhall119: do I have to change my branch or repackage the app again?
[20:55] <Phoenix87> or both
[20:55] <mhall119> Phoenix87: you should make the changes to debian/rules in your branch
[20:56] <Phoenix87> mhall119: you mean debian/control ?
[20:56] <mhall119> but you don't need to resubmit until you have other changes you want to submit, I've sent the current code + my changes for voting to get it into the Software Center
[20:56] <mhall119> yes, sorry, debian/control
[20:57] <Phoenix87> mhall119: ok. I have just merged your changes into my branch
[20:57] <Phoenix87> thank you
[20:59] <Phoenix87> mhall119: anyway, is there some sort of ubuntu arb policy about how "clean" lintian should be? In the past I had quite a hard times with debian mentors complaining about any warning spitted out by lintian
[21:00] <Phoenix87> *time
[21:03] <mhall119> Phoenix87: for ARB apps lintian will always spit out a bunch of file-or-dir-in-opt errors
[21:03] <mhall119> but other than that I try and fix everything else
[21:03] <mhall119> unless there's a good reason for not fixing it
[21:04] <mhall119> the ARB is generally more lenient than DMs and DDs (though some of them are DMs or DDs I think)
[21:04] <Phoenix87> mhall119: ok, good to know that. I should probably try to correct them myself then in order to ease your reviewing process. I just didn't know you were also aiming for a reasonable clean lintian
[21:06] <mhall119> I think "reasonably clen" is a good standard :)
[21:20] <Phoenix87> mhall119: :)
