We set a pretty strange and irregular bar for that around here. 14:13:23 meh 14:13:38 Where is Tom 14:13:43 Someone wake him up please :P 14:13:59 He's listed as afk in the other channel. 14:14:09 pffft 14:15:26 #topic Announcements 14:15:35 Anyone got anything cool? :P 14:16:06 Water in a thermally insulated cup. 14:16:30 that is cool :) 14:17:17 There was .NET Conf - I didn't pay attention to it at all... 14:17:35 There were some decent presentations. 14:19:11 Okay I can't find anything in my feeds and I don't remember anything either... 14:19:44 #info (3) fedoraloves.net 14:19:53 #undo 14:19:53 Removing item from minutes: INFO by Rhea at 14:19:44 : (3) fedoraloves.net 14:20:01 #topic fedoraloves.net 14:20:36 On this... I'll be updating the IDEs description, do you have anything better to say about VS Code? How would *you* sell it to someone? 14:21:41 This is a mixed bag given the audience, but it is officially microsoft supported. 14:21:53 hehe 14:21:59 Git integration? easy to use? lots of complements? is black? 14:22:21 But none of that is unique in the IDE world... 14:22:27 It has plugins for the official debugger and for intellisense. 14:22:33 I would mention that it's ... modular? plugin based? 14:22:49 What plugins should we link to? 14:22:59 C#, some nuget manager? 14:23:27 This doesn't help your case any, but ahs anyone used F# in jetbrains? 14:23:58 I heard some grumbling on reddit the other day that F# isn't very well supported in the VS line of editors? 14:24:07 And by jetbrains, I clearly meant rider. 14:24:30 maybe this https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=blairleduc.net-core-starters-pack 14:25:12 and this https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=jmrog.vscode-nuget-package-manager 14:25:41 Well I'm not trying to sell vs code 14:25:48 I don't like it 14:25:52 I'm just trying to not be biased 14:25:54 :D 14:25:56 :p 14:26:18 One for opens-source argument is that the C# support in vscode is mostly powered by omnisharp, which is open source. 14:26:26 * omajid doesnt like how it is basically proprietary software masquerading as open source 14:27:04 yup 14:27:12 * aslice agrees. 14:29:39 * pcreech too 14:29:52 So another point on the topic, I'll be working towards fliers and getting them stickers printed in two weeks, will be (probably) presenting dotnet in Fedora & CentOS at BuildStuff Lithuana... 14:30:31 But that has two weeks time before I start, so no action required at this time... Later I'll be poking for help with text stuff again 14:34:03 #topic Packaging progress / Open Floor discussion 14:34:13 #info We have awesome packages. 14:34:19 \o/ 14:34:20 #agreed Our packages are awesome. 14:34:24 Anything else I'm missing? 14:34:24 omajid++ 14:34:25 aslice: Karma for omajid changed to 4 (for the f26 release cycle): https://badges.fedoraproject.org/tags/cookie/any 14:34:47 I've seen some effort in the source build recently, so that's good... 14:35:31 anyone want to chim into https://github.com/dotnet/source-build/issues/187 from a fedora PVO, please go ahead 14:36:06 POV* 14:36:13 Oh I didn't catch up with github notifications today yet 14:36:16 will do 14:37:44 Think that it will be "there" before devconf? 14:37:52 Like... *in* Fedora? 14:38:55 in fedora proper? based on https://github.com/dotnet/source-build/issues/187 from a fedora PVO, please go ahead 14:38:58 10:36 < omajid> POV* 14:38:58 oops. 14:39:14 based on github.com/dotnet/source-build/issues/187, i think it is a giant no 14:39:36 oh well 14:39:44 Hope dies last? 14:40:05 they have a very different view of the world compared to fedora :( 14:40:28 hi all 14:40:36 waw meeting is still on-going :) ! 14:40:57 yep 14:41:05 what topic are we at? 14:41:22 Packaging and Open Floor Discussion 14:41:26 Hai Tom 14:41:34 hello tmds! 14:41:37 We're on... a github thing that's going on today 14:41:42 link please o.o 14:41:46 https://github.com/dotnet/source-build/issues/187 14:41:54 That... 14:42:20 I don't even understand why does this ticket exist to be coldly honest. 14:42:35 That first sentence evokes feelings like "The f*?" 14:42:48 when I first saw the issue, I thought about copying the stated goal of the readme... 14:42:53 They don't know why do we need source build or what? 14:43:05 I think it has to do with other people working on source-build than before 14:43:08 Do they think that all the operating systems out there are gonna be happy with *their* packages? 14:43:19 anyhow, it's better they raise the question than head of in the wrong direction 14:43:33 Rhea: i have a strong feeling they think the answer to that question is "yes" 14:43:50 Well I have been *screaming* at them to shove them somewhere. 14:43:56 They're not packagers. 14:44:04 I'm happy with the increased activity on the repo 14:44:40 also these guys starting to contribute, they understand well how the different bits fit together 14:45:09 I'm stating the positive things ;) 14:47:59 tmds: And I think that is something to keep in mind. The overall direction is a positive one so far (even if the bar for positive is low). We just need to make sure they stay on that direction. 14:48:03 Lets end this meeting, i'm gonna work on a reply for that ticket... 14:48:10 Gonna make it clear what the goal is... 14:48:42 hmmm, be positive! 14:48:59 We need to make sure that we, in general, acknowledge the positive while keeping the pressure on. Constant brow-beating won't get us anywhere. 14:49:56 #endmeeting
