Much appreciated 19:08:20 its very satisfying being able to click a link to storyboard and not have to re-click immediately after 19:08:37 I think I have nothing else 19:08:40 * diablo_rojo thinks hers has been reviewed but hasnt gotten around to updating again.. 19:08:48 nothing on my end 19:09:00 the imports last week (that was last week, right?) seemed to go fine 19:09:13 yeah, last week 19:09:34 though I feel like I have no sense of time at the moment 19:09:53 diablo_rojo: we did get a followup question from one of the recent migrations... "what should i do on lp after migrating" is something we likely need to cover in our migration documentation 19:10:12 I'm glad they went fine :) 19:10:40 we did see somebody in #storyboard asking what they should do if they later wanted to make a cross-project story with a project that hadn't migrated yet 19:10:48 with general suggestions about how to close down the ability to open new lp bugs, updating project description on lp with a direct link to the new tracker, updating your readme or contributing files with similar changes, et cetera 19:10:48 (well specifically, they were wondering if sb supported that) 19:11:11 fungi, yeah I saw that, I will need to start mentioning that too when I reach out/coordinate dates 19:11:13 (which it doesn't, and I don't know how it would) 19:11:31 on that one i would say sb "supports" it insofar as you can stick hyperlinks in comments of the story and the lp bug report pointing at one another 19:11:45 that's true 19:11:55 really more of a workaround, but whatever 19:12:07 yeah, I'm vaguely wondering if there could be a nicer ui for that, but I also don't know who would do it 19:12:08 LP is FULL of workarounds 19:12:13 so they should be used to that 19:12:21 the solution is to get the rest of the teams to migrate as far as i'm concerned 19:12:25 indeed 19:12:32 fungi, +1 19:12:38 +1 19:12:49 I reached out to TripleO, Tacker, and Octavia last week and havent heard back yet 19:12:58 ace, thank you 19:13:02 eventually, down the road, it could make sense for stories to have a bucket for external references where you could link to other bug trackers 19:13:17 yeah, I've always wanted that 19:13:29 (and of course the converse, for when every other tracker is like 'WE NEED TO SUPPORT STORYBOARD') 19:13:46 (I have big dreams =D) 19:13:59 some trackers (including lp) have some limited ability to even track statuses of bugs reported in external trackers, though more useful there since their primary use case was tracking bugs in ubuntu which often needed to depend on upstream reports in various other software off-lp 19:14:26 yeah 19:14:29 also I think I tested Octavia but not the others there, idk if anybody else has 19:14:54 if sb implemented something like that at some point, i wouldn't object but i really don't think it's a necessity for our use case 19:15:31 yeah, it's on my 'nice to have' pile because we've been asked a few times 'is it possible to import bugs from $otherthing'? 19:15:56 and generally importing is more complex than just watching some statuses or similar 19:16:17 what people mostly want in that case is not so much importing as reflecting 19:16:22 yep 19:17:21 though I suppose once they're reflected in one way, there'd be a 'can we put them in a board' etc 19:17:50 right, like "shadow" stories or tasks 19:18:28 yeah, I think after some point the import script would start to look like the simpler option for those 19:18:37 but I'm just guessing really 19:19:11 it does certainly stretch the current data model a lot oterwise 19:19:19 otherwise 19:19:56 *nod* 19:20:35 #topic Open Discussion 19:20:42 we were already openly discussing 19:20:47 so I have updated the log 19:20:55 * SotK certainly thinks that migration scripts would be an easier solution for such use cases 19:22:01 I don't think I have any discussion topics of my own this week 19:22:26 anybody else? 19:22:32 * SotK doesn't 19:22:39 Nope. Just need to dig in, 19:23:16 in that case, I propose we end the meeting so I can get round to faxing fungi that slice of pizza 19:23:44 Fax me one too please :) 19:23:51 sure! 19:23:56 step 1) locate a fax machine 19:24:00 step 2) learn how to use it 19:24:04 i'll be listening for the fax noises 19:24:10 step 3) work out the whole 'it's a pizza' thing 19:24:19 * fungi is sure he has a fax lying around here somewhere still 19:24:40 ooh 19:25:13 duct tape a scanner, printer and modem together. instant fax machine 19:25:19 http://24.media.tumblr.com/7617172e353ff43f644ca142e5c58984/tumblr_mxewn5OXVt1s3yr8vo1_500.png 19:25:33 photo of the pizza and definitely not a random picture I just found on the internet 19:25:53 it's a long-standing (though perhaps long-forgotten?) techie joke 19:26:03 :D 19:26:35 * zara_the_lemur__ will end the meeting now 19:26:36 #endmeeting
