Further reducing my involvement with Ubuntu
Hello, Following some recent interactions[1] which have made me question my trust in the Ubuntu Community, I have made the decision to further cut back my involvement with the Ubuntu project. In the case of the Ubuntu Release team, this specifically relates to the operation of the IRC bot "queuebot". I've been operating and occasionally tweaking and fixing that IRC bot for over a decade (since 2012) and it's been running on my own infrastructure ever since. You'll find the current (rather ugly python) code here: https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-archive/queuebot/queuebot I'd like to turn the lights off on my side by the end of March. Should someone want to take over hosting and operating it, please let me know and we'll organize the transfer of the production configuration to minimize the downtime for its users. It's currently running in an Ubuntu 20.04 container and needs around 500MB of RAM to keep track of all the various packages. If nobody steps in, then I'll just turn it off at the end of March assuming that it's no longer a useful service to the Ubuntu community. Thanks!

RE: Further reducing my involvement with Ubuntu
Stephane, I can handle operation of the bot if its just in an LXD container then migrating it over should be simple if the Release team does not mind me assisting with running components.

I've thought for a while that it would be a good idea for us to move hosting of this somewhere at Canonical that multiple active members of the Release Team might have access to. I've identified a place we can quickly spin this up that both Brian and I (as well as some non Release Team folks) will have admin access on. Feel free to dump the production config info. (If other members of the Release Team care about having access, we can also make that happen; I'm just arranging for now to move it somewhere expedient / low-overhead.) -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.

RE: Further reducing my involvement with Ubuntu
The code exists somewhere right? I may want to adapt a version of this for Lubuntu on our Matrix channels at some point independent of the AA/Release Team at some point (or for a private equivalent bot to send me notices on specific packages).

Re: Further reducing my involvement with Ubuntu
Yep, My original e-mail included a link to the bzr repo for the code. I suspect that part of moving it to a new home will include converting that to git and writing down more up to date instructions on how to install and run it.

RE: Further reducing my involvement with Ubuntu
I have a feeling that'll happen, but I'll leave that to the Release team. Eithier way, I have a code clone so I can start examining the code (and potentially improving it for my own needs or using it as a base for stuff). Yay for open source software, am I right? 😊 Thomas -Original Message- From: Stéphane Graber Sent: Friday, February 16, 2024 18:25 To: Thomas Ward Cc: Steve Langasek ; ubuntu-release@lists.ubuntu.com Subject: Re: Further reducing my involvement with Ubuntu Yep, My original e-mail included a link to the bzr repo for the code.
