| JackFrost | I mean if it's simply new packages and the licnese allows, you could just get it in Debian no? | 00:16 |
|---|---|---|
| mason | This is where it might be nice if we supported PPA/COPR-like things. | 00:45 |
| mason | Worst case, maybe we set up pointers to explicitly "caveat emptor" repositories that are formally not part of Devuan. | 00:46 |
| mason | https://wiki.centos.org/AdditionalResources/Repositories provides a good example, with its very visible warning text. | 00:46 |
| golinux | mason: We really don't need more to monitor and maintain. After all we are a less not more distro, right? | 01:11 |
| golinux | Folks can always host the pet projects elsewhere and post links on the forum and elsewhere. | 01:12 |
| golinux | If only that energy could be focused on actually doing something for Devuan. Sigh . . . | 01:13 |
| mason | golinux: Yeah, the forums would work fine for that too. | 01:28 |
| mason | In other news, I had a bad drive, not a bad SATA port on my motherboard. \o/ | 01:29 |
| golinux | The forums could easily get overloaded/hijacked with unrelated frills and frufrus | 01:29 |
| golinux | Has anyone sent the 3.1 announcement yet. fsmithred, you want to do the honors? | 02:34 |
| fsmithred | what do I do? | 02:34 |
| fsmithred | just copy paste the page? | 02:34 |
| golinux | I think so. Might need some minor text formatting as the previous email announcements | 02:36 |
| * golinux goes to check the focaccia | 02:36 | |
| fsmithred | you want to do the forum? I've got it down to left-justified plain text. | 02:45 |
| fsmithred | I sent to jaromil, DNG and devuan-dev | 02:47 |
| Xenguy | Do we publish these announcements and the web site at the same time, or ...? | 02:47 |
| fsmithred | I hope so, since the emails just went out | 02:48 |
| Xenguy | I've never done one of these before, so I am waiting for a 'Go' from... someone. Is that a 'Go' I hear then? | 02:49 |
| fsmithred | ok, I did the forum. You (golinux) can reformat it if you want. | 02:50 |
| fsmithred | Xenguy | 02:50 |
| fsmithred | Go! | 02:50 |
| Xenguy | Thank you! | 02:50 |
| fsmithred | only a few hours left of V-day | 02:50 |
| fsmithred | we need to figure out why the torrent is not working | 02:51 |
| golinux | I've been playing with the focaccia and not paying attention. SWorry. | 02:55 |
| Xenguy | Published to Live now. | 02:55 |
| golinux | fsmithred: I'll check the forum now | 02:55 |
| Xenguy | fsmithred: re: torrent: Try including that announce in the tracker URLs? | 02:56 |
| Xenguy | I'm not holding my breath but it is something to try | 02:57 |
| Xenguy | e.g. udp://tracker.opentrackr.org:1337/announce | 02:58 |
| Xenguy | (no slash on end it looks like) | 02:58 |
| fsmithred | ok, will do | 02:59 |
| fsmithred | they all had 'announce'? | 03:00 |
| Xenguy | Yes for each tracker URL | 03:03 |
| Xenguy | This is how other torrent files I have on hand are formed anyway | 03:03 |
| fsmithred | ok, the makefile says it makes torrent files for ascii and beowulf, and that's what it did on Jan 19, but today only beowulf. | 03:04 |
| fsmithred | maybe because ascii didn't change | 03:05 |
| fsmithred | it's running. | 03:06 |
| Xenguy | I wish I knew more about makefiles | 03:06 |
| fsmithred | I think we no longer have a Feb 14 date on the beowulf dir | 03:06 |
| fsmithred | oh, maybe it will do both because I changed the makefile | 03:07 |
| fsmithred | it's done | 03:11 |
| fsmithred | and it's stalled | 03:11 |
| Xenguy | I'll try a test also | 03:11 |
