[Didier Roche <didrocks@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hey!

Another landing day in the ubuntu phone world. We had images 126 and 127 
produced. Those contains:
- the latest HUD unblocked from -proposed
- the fix from Martin in python-gobject getting the unity8 AP tests back 
on shape \o/
- no more crash in qmlscene and some other apps
- the notes-app AP test fix (which is working for now \o/)
- latest qtlocation, columbus et voice services

The only known crasher is the dialer app (see below).

However, due to rssreader failing reliably since image 122 ( 
http://ci.ubuntu.com/smokeng/trusty/touch/mako/127:20140114:20140107.1/6052/ubuntu-rssreader-app-autopilot/), 
we are not in a position to promote this image. I know Nicholas is 
working tirelessly to understand what regressed it (taking the diff of 
the image and going one by one).

Image 128 is going to be kicked in an hour (but won't be promoted 
because of rssreader) with the changes from the day. Those are safe 
changes to ensure we don't regress our pass rate:
- seeding usensord and the account evernote support plugin (so that the 
click apps can be release)
- initial work on being able to purchase applications from the click store
- dimension support changes for sidestage in tablet mode


On going green, updating on the current progress and reports from Nicholas):

notes_app (Bill):
http://ci.ubuntu.com/smokeng/trusty/touch/mako/112:20140105:20131223.2/5882/notes-app-autopilot/638428/ 

-> This one seems to need some more information to understand what 
happens (the toolbar is not closing). The CI team is asked if they can 
help providing some video for it.

http://ci.ubuntu.com/smokeng/trusty/touch/maguro/114:20140106:20131223.2/5905/notes-app-autopilot/ 

-> Fixed, removing from the list

weather-app (Nicholas):
http://ci.ubuntu.com/smokeng/trusty/touch/mako/109:20140103.1:20131223.2/5859/ubuntu-weather-app-autopilot/ 

-> Networking failure. This is changing to TWC api, and yes, there will 
need to be some mocking. This is WIP by development team. A big rollover 
to the new API will be landing soon.

ubuntu-ui-toolkit (zoltan):
http://ci.ubuntu.com/smokeng/trusty/touch/maguro/114:20140106:20131223.2/5905/ubuntu-ui-toolkit-autopilot/ 

-> The team has reproduced this and determined that the osk is not 
always being hidden when an app is quit or terminates unexpectedly.
-> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity-mir/+bug/1267550, 
should Kevin get the ownership on this then? Greyback is working on it.

clock-app (Nicholas):
http://ci.ubuntu.com/smokeng/trusty/touch/maguro/114:20140106:20131223.2/5905/ubuntu-clock-app-autopilot/ 

-> From Nicholas: "No luck in reproducing yet. -- the emulator won't run 
clock atm, investigating. Xnox, I see you seem to have results 
(passing), but I've only gotten crashes."

calendar-app (Nicholas):
http://ci.ubuntu.com/smokeng/trusty/touch/maguro/114:20140106:20131223.2/5905/calendar-app-autopilot/ 

-> Merge is stalemated because of inconclusive results from folks with 
maguro devices (possible MIR issue?). Going to try and land this and be 
ready to revert.

dialer_app crash (Bill):
http://ci.ubuntu.com/smokeng/trusty/touch/mako/114:20140106:20131223.2/5903/dialer-app-autopilot/ 

-> The team is looking into it (doesn't seem to happen on the emulator 
though)

terminal app (Nicholas):
We had this regression last month, it's on the list as well for blocking 
new terminal app release (keyboard not working with it): 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-terminal-app/+bug/1257791
-> The issue was investigated and found that konsole qml plugin is what 
needs work. Plugin author isn't able to look at the issue until next 
week, so we're on hold until then.
