Comment 7 Olivier Crete (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-09-01 17:31:30 UTC
We should use the #gentoo-x86 channel as a dev/AT meeting channel, I think its
currently registered by solar.

I'm in so long as I'm the release coordinator... I'm hoping that we can end up
promoting someone from this group into that role and bringing them into releng,
as it is a bit much to wear so many hats regarding releng.  Luckily, we're
switching to a whole new format for releases soon, so having me leading the
patch with x86 probably is the best for the short term.

(not adding myself to CC since I'm already on the alias)

For those wanting to become ATs, please see:

If you have questions, need pointers, whatever, please let me know.
Comment 17 Alec Warner (RETIRED) archtester gentoo-dev Security 2005-09-02 16:06:01 UTC
I am willing to be an x86 AT.

Comment 19 Stuart Longland (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-09-03 21:50:20 UTC
Count me in for testing if you like...

I have, for testing purposes...

Main Machine:
CPU: 2x Intel Pentium III 1GHz
RAM: 1GB PC133 SDRAM
HDD: ~20GB available to Linux

Laptop:
CPU: 1x Intel Pentium 4 Mobile 1.7GHz
RAM: 512MB
HDD: ~30GB available to Linux

some crash and burn boxes:
* a Intel Celeron 300A w/ 128MB RAM
* two 2x Pentium PRO 200MHz w/ 160 and 192MB RAM

some real OLD crash and burn boxes:
* 1x IBM/Cyrix 486DX4 100MHz, 64MB EDO RAM
* 1x AMD Am5x86 133MHz, 64MB EDO RAM.  Currently dual booting Windows 95 and SCO
OpenServer 5.0.4
* 1x AMD Am386DX 33MHz, 20MB RAM, 3GB SCSI HDD.  Running Win95 currently.
* Digital Prioris XL 5000 Server; 2x Pentium 133MHz, 64MB RAM

So, given constraints with my MIPS work, university stuff, and Real Life... I
should be able to test packages.

i'm in the middle of an oilfield miles from nowhere most weekdays but i'd be
happy to spare some time on the weekends.
Comment 21 Ian Leitch (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-09-05 05:03:16 UTC
Glad to see we have lots of support here, lets move things along a bit.

avenj is listed as being the x86 Lead prior to the formation of this team, he no
longer wishes to continue in that role.

Seemant said he is happy to continue as Assistant Operational Lead.

wolf31o2 has claimed the Release Cordinator spot.

So we need to fill the following positions:
Operational Lead
Strategic Lead
Arch Tester Lead

Any takers? I'll offer to be Operational Lead if we can't find anyone else to do
it (you want this spot Seemant?).
Comment 22 Seemant Kulleen (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-09-07 05:39:16 UTC
Actually, I'd rather ian took the lead role on this arch, and I'd like to see
ferringb take up some sort of lead as well (that would be my personal dream team
choice, based on dev experience of the people on the cc list).
Comment 23 Chris Fairles 2005-09-07 07:33:49 UTC
I can help out testing as well. Currently a user, done bit of debugging/ebuilding. 

P4 3.2Ghz w/HT, HP Pavilion laptop. 

Comment 24 Mark Loeser (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-09-07 14:27:41 UTC
Mark Loeser, halcy0n@gentoo.org

I have a whole slew of x86 boxes on which to do testing.
Comment 25 Michael Stewart (vericgar) (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-09-15 18:25:11 UTC
This is something I feel I could expand into instead of handling just a few
packages. Should I just add myself to the alias, or is there something else that
needs to be done as well?
Comment 26 Chris Gianelloni (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-09-16 06:18:50 UTC
Have someone add you to the alias (you probably can't do it yourself) and join
#gentoo-x86 on freenode
Comment 27 Paul Varner (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-09-26 20:32:57 UTC
Please add me primarily as a tester.

I have two x86 systems (1 desktop & 1 server) and one ~x86 system (my main dev box)

Comment 30 Robert Muchacki (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-10-12 14:19:45 UTC
Hello? I'm in the team too :) Got a bunch of x86 to test on. Even a SELinux box
 ;)
Comment 31 Nick Dimiduk (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-10-13 15:43:24 UTC
x86 box has fried its cpu.  no money to trouble-shoot/replace.  may be back later.
Comment 32 Mark Loeser (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-10-18 10:24:07 UTC
Well, the team has been established, so I don't think we need this bug anymore.
 If you want to be involved, stop by the IRC channel, #gentoo-x86.
