I recognize a few of you, perhaps you've seen me around. I'm a long-time Ubuntu user. My contribution efforts began more recently, with project Sputnik, Dell's effort to ship laptops preinstalled with Ubuntu. 20:24 It resulted in my authoring multiple touchpad driver patches for the Ubuntu kernel, which have since moved upstream. 20:25 I've since started working at Canonical, where I mostly work on snapcraft and Ubuntu Core. 20:25 kyrofa: I'm historically curious, in your work with the Sputnik project were you working with Dell, Canonical or an Ubuntu community effort? 20:25 (or a mix?) 20:26 pleia2, as a community contributor. The touchpad sucked ;) 20:26 hehe 20:26 I mean, who were you submitting bugs, etc to? 20:26 Oh right-- to the Sputnik LP project. Submitted patches to the Ubuntu kernel team mailing list 20:26 ah, neat 20:27 kyrofa: How long were you involved with that and how many patches came out of it? 20:28 tsimonq2, I worked on it until the touchpad didn't have any more issues, a few weeks probably. It was several years ago now, but I believe three patches came out of it 20:28 Ah ok 20:28 that's awesome, totally going to start telling people that you are responsible for the touchpad working well :) 20:28 :D 20:28 Indeed, great work there :) 20:29 Haha, thanks 20:29 as an early sputnik user, thank you ;) 20:29 kyrofa: also has a super beard. I think he left this off the application 20:29 kyrofa: I actually haven't heard much out of the ubuntu core/snapcraft world following lots of big announcements about robots and things, how is that going? 20:29 popey, ah darn, I should have put it on there 20:30 kyrofa, how long have you been working with snapd and snap-confine? 20:31 Wild_Man, I was on the snapd team for about 6 months. Longer if you count the random contributions I've been making while on other teams 20:31 awesome! 20:31 pleia2, it's going well-- still fairly young admittedly, but we're gaining traction 20:31 kyrofa: What sort of other things besides *snap* (I mean for these to be wildcards :P) stuff have you been involved in? 20:31 kyrofa: that's good to hear :) 20:32 tsimonq2, I was originally hired onto the Ubuntu API team, which is of course no more 20:33 Excuse me-- the Unity API team 20:33 kyrofa: Ah ok, what did that entail? 20:33 (i.e. what did you do?) 20:34 It was the C++ backend to the pretty Unity 8 front-end. My work revolved around the phone, the click scope, and in-app purchase 20:34 Ok, cool 20:35 Mostly scope work and helping write the pay service 20:35 I see 20:35 pleia2, marcoceppi, Wild_Man, popey: Any more questions, or shall we vote? 20:36 #voters Wild_Man marcoceppi pleia2 popey tsimonq2 20:36 Current voters: Wild_Man marcoceppi pleia2 popey tsimonq2 20:36 I have no further questions 20:36 +1 20:36 Oops :) 20:36 +1 20:36 #vote kyrofa for Ubuntu Membership 20:36 Please vote on: kyrofa for Ubuntu Membership 20:36 Public votes can be registered by saying +1, +0 or -1 in channel, (for private voting, private message me with 'vote +1/-1/+0 #channelname) 20:36 +1 20:36 +1 received from popey 20:37 +1 20:37 +1 received from pleia2 20:37 Wild_Man: Please vote again ;) 20:37 +1 20:37 +1 received from Wild_Man 20:37 +1 20:37 +1 received from marcoceppi 20:38 +0, while I see a lot of nice work, I think a little bit more work can be done in Ubuntu Community :) 20:38 +0, while I see a lot of nice work, I think a little bit more work can be done in Ubuntu Community :) received from tsimonq2 20:38 #endvote 20:38 Voting ended on: kyrofa for Ubuntu Membership 20:38 Votes for:4 Votes against:0 Abstentions:1 20:38 Motion carried 20:38 kyrofa: Congrats :) 20:38 Thank you 20:39 * tsimonq2 can do the adding to teams, announcements, etc. 20:39 kyrofa: Congratulations :) 20:39 https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/H4CY1iOU 20:39 welcome, kyrofa! 20:40 Duh.
