Working from Barcelona!
I've just finished my first night in Barcelona, Spain. This was a fun night, a good night for catching up with people in person whom I normally only see online. And, of course, Canonical is steadily growing, so there are many people still to meet or get to know. This should be a nice couple weeks.
That's right -- two weeks. This first week is for the Canonical AllHands meeting; next week is for UDS. . It's a long time to be away from my family, but I really feel it's time well spent.
I've been with Canonical for a little over a month now, and it's been a busy few weeks. We're mid-cycle now on the 2.2.5 release, and looking at our 2.2.5 progress page, you can get a good idea of what sort of work is going into Launchpad Bugs this next release. Lots of words like "UI" and "inline" on the page. I've been doing work on making subscribing to bugs happen on a bug page, rather than having a user taken away to a "subscribe to bug XXXX" page and redirected back again after confirmation.
This is the last week to land code this cycle, and with AllHands, I don't know how much more I'll really get done. But I'm going to try to get in some coding time this week. I would like to finish all of the subscribe-to-a-bug-inline tickets this cycle, but I'm sure that's a bit unrealistic this time. But tomorrow, tomorrow we'll see what happens.
Just not tonight... tonight, I'm dead. I need sleep. now.
