Hi all, tl;dr It's time for another meeting. Instead of doing the usual IRC chit-chat, I suggest we skip the boring parts and have a party instead. [1] Preferably this event should last 24h at some weekend in March, so that everyone around the globe gets a chance to participate. Proposed topics/actions: JessieReleaseGoal, DebTags, screenshots, bug triaging and fixing. Please declare your intention on what weekend and time (or better time frame) you want to attend. [2] Everyone is welcome. JessieReleaseGoal ================= To recall the aims of this goal: It should be concrete, measurable and easy to implement and of course improve the visibility of games in Debian. [3] A while ago I created a wiki page to document the current status of our internal release goal. [4] I have now completed reviewing all games in the archive and I'm tracking all "desktop-integration" bugs here [5] and all bugs not in packages of the Games Team here. [6] The bug reports cover: games missing desktop and/or menu files and packages that provide no desktop and/or menu icon. More than 200 bug reports were filed. Internal status =============== Out of 353 source packages maintained by the Games Team in main only 17 had either no desktop or menu file or both which is pretty good. Most bug reports were filed because of missing icons for menu files, a minor and easy to fix wishlist bug. External status =============== A lot of "external" games packages didn't provide desktop files and icons. In total three times as many bug reports were filed against those packages. Impressions =========== First of all thanks to all of you who have already fixed bugs. I think now we need to create some momentum and fix as many bugs as possible before the next freeze on the 5th of November. The next meeting is surely a good opportunity. Please consider to attend and if you can't attend for whatever reason, please go nevertheless debtagging your packages. This will support more than just one other goal but especially the creation of metapackages for games. :) Cheers, Markus [1] https://wiki.debian.org/Games/Parties [2] https://dudle.inf.tu-dresden.de/Debian_Games_Party/ [3] https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-games/2013/07/msg00009.html [4] https://wiki.debian.org/Games/JessieReleaseGoal [5] http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?users=pkg-games-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org;tag=desktop-integration [6] http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?users=pkg-games-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org;tag=not-gamesteam
