| lifeless | sabdfl:sure. | 12:04 |
| lifeless | sabdfl: I'd like to have all the subprojects *except* launchpad transitioned in fact, before I fly. | 12:05 |
| sabdfl | kiko: i want to go live on soyuz on monday, but only if we can test it properly | 12:05 |
| kiko | lifeless, btw, I'm happy to take the pie if we end UBZ on bzr and I manage a successful merge. | 12:05 |
| lifeless | we've been through that rocky part already. | 12:05 |
| kiko | sabdfl, okay. my parts will be in place tomorrow | 12:05 |
| sabdfl | lifeless: are you absolutely sure about the other parts | 12:05 |
| sabdfl | ? | 12:05 |
| sabdfl | is the theory that those change less often? | 12:05 |
| lifeless | but launchpad is what people hack on, so transitioning that is what will give most tubulence | 12:05 |
| lifeless | yes | 12:05 |
| sabdfl | is it possible to fall back once you start transitionint? | 12:05 |
| kiko | lifeless, at the moment PQM is failing to process 100% of my merge requests with failures in some of the other trees | 12:06 |
| kiko | non-launchpad | 12:06 |
| lifeless | sabdfl: yes, just remove the merged stuff from the tip of the branches and switch the pqm config back | 12:06 |
| kiko | lifeless, can you check if there's something wrong there? | 12:06 |
| lifeless | kiko: looking at it | 12:07 |
| kiko | thanks dude | 12:07 |
| lifeless | I see one merge at 1am and one emrge at 141am my time | 12:07 |
| kiko | I can resubmit a merge if you like | 12:07 |
| lifeless | they both worked, one to prod, one to devel | 12:07 |

| lifeless | kiko: come back in ~20 to forward me the detailed error | 12:11 |
| kiko | sabdfl, note that testing soyuz also involves pushing all package uploads through the uploader | 12:12 |
| lifeless | if you dont eat, you wont' be effective anyway. | 12:12 |
| kiko | sabdfl, through the build system | 12:12 |

| kiko | by all package uploads I'd mean all breezy package uploads | 12:12 |
| lifeless | SteveA_: I have all of the rocketfuel archives active branches converted - zope, sqlos, sqlobject etc etc etc | 12:12 |
| kiko | sabdfl, if we don't do that it's likely we will see problems in production | 12:13 |
| lifeless | SteveA_: we can convert any of these to getting commits from bzr at any point. | 12:13 |
| lifeless | SteveA_: but I think we should let your and kikos pending merges get through the queue first. | 12:13 |
| kiko | lifeless, can you kill my merge? | 12:13 |

| lifeless | stub: so, postgresql had a stale backend open on launchpad_ftesting :[ | 02:24 |
| stub | Bah. I can't see any daily builds since the broken 20th ones. Which is blocking me. Anyone got some older ones lying around that have baz push? | 02:24 |
| lifeless | stub: use http://people.ubuntu.com/~robertc/baz2.0/bzrtools-baz2bzr | 02:25 |

| sabdfl | wtf is paramiko? | 02:27 |
| stub | lifeless: This is for use with breezy bzr? | 02:28 |
| lifeless | stub: ah. I see whats up | 02:29 |
| lifeless | sabdfl: paramiko is a sync sftp implementation, its a temporary sftp protocol for us | 02:29 |
| sabdfl | ok, cool | 02:29 |
| sabdfl | to be replaced with twisted? | 02:29 |
| lifeless | stub: you'll need to use jbaileys bzr | 02:29 |

| sabdfl | ok. that was the crowd i was thinking of ;-) | 02:31 |
| lifeless | :) | 02:31 |
| stub | Async would be cool | 02:31 |

| lifeless | yes | 02:31 |
| ajmitch | sounds like my connection right now | 02:31 |
| lifeless | making the core async is a big step though. | 02:31 |
| lifeless | so, while its been frustrating having a looooooong conversation about it | 02:32 |
| lifeless | I think its important that all the key devs have time to experiment, and buy in | 02:32 |
| lifeless | my format-4 experimental branch was 7 times faster with twisted on http, and I expect similar returns with format 5 | 02:33 |
| sabdfl | wow. 7 times faster for an initial pull, for example? | 02:34 |
| lifeless | question - if we write code to improve pipelining etc as we use twisted, can we contribute that back to twisted ? They use MIT licencing. | 02:34 |
| lifeless | yes, 7 times faster | 02:34 |
| lifeless | my pulls here of bzr.dev took ~12 minutes, down from ~90 | 02:35 |
| sabdfl | what's the merging like in bzr right now? | 02:36 |
| sabdfl | especially mesh merging? | 02:36 |
| lifeless | much better than baz, it does not shortcut history | 02:36 |
| lifeless | not as good as codeville yet, we do not have weave merge in place today. | 02:36 |
| sabdfl | can we expect fewer surprises in the conflict department? | 02:37 |
| lifeless | yes | 02:37 |

| lifeless | sabdfl: question - if we write code to improve pipelining etc as we use twisted, can we contribute that back to twisted ? They use MIT licencing. | 02:40 |
| sabdfl | lifeless: i would rather we focused on features than peformance | 02:40 |
| lifeless | sabdfl: We are - but there is a balance. Below a certain threshold of performance, we lose folk. | 02:41 |
| mfuentes | As much as time delays Rosetta in accepting a po file? I'm waiting all day! | 02:41 |
| lifeless | sabdfl: for instance, we have some big-O scaling issues for big trees (launchpad isn't a big tree), that we need to address, and thats arguably performance | 02:42 |
| stub | Severian_: I don't think there is anyone around at the moment who can help with that (I think you want cprov of jamesh). I would suggest filing a bug with your signed document attached. I know there are issues with sign-only GPG keys, but apart from that I can't help. | 02:42 |

| lifeless | stub: there is no cache. but you can say 'bzr branch --basis LOCALBRANCH REMOTEBRANCH | 02:49 |
| lifeless | stub: which will use localbranch for history, then remotebranch for anything missing. Except its not currently doing that for weaves. | 02:50 |

| === ajmitch enjoys using it, which is a change from some other tools :) | ||
| sabdfl | very high quality design and engineering. it feels really... smooth | 02:54 |
| sabdfl | interesting. lifeless, the zope3 tree in arch was 56mb. the bzr one is up to 56 before it even builds the working dir | 02:55 |
| lifeless | sabdfl: this is expected - remember you have a full copy of the tree in your .bzr subdir | 02:57 |
| sabdfl | ok. so it will be bigger, but faster, cleaner | 02:58 |
| lifeless | sabdfl: so in arch you have 56mb from source + commit metadata, in bzr you have 56mb from source + commit metadata + history-of-files | 02:58 |
| lifeless | the lp tree gets smaller because we nuke a bad-O algorithm in the logs | 02:58 |
| sabdfl | right. and i suppose that as the number of branches and commits goes up, arch became pathological while bzr scales more cleanly | 02:58 |

| micro_girl | I was really wondering about it, I don't have problems in translating lots of stuff, but I wanted to be sure they would use it! | 03:50 |
| jamesh | lifeless: it took a few goes -- first off the branch was being recognised as a baz branch (the regexp was essentially taking anything with an "@" in it) | 03:51 |
| jamesh | lifeless: after tightening that up and fixing a few other small issues it went through | 03:51 |
| lifeless | ok | 03:52 |
| lifeless | I'll do a trivial change now | 03:52 |
| lifeless | and we can see what it looks like | 03:52 |
| jamesh | but some of the code is short circuited if it detects that the branch has been merged, so it would be good to see what happens | 03:52 |
| lifeless | ok, I have done that and pushed. | 03:53 |
| lifeless | jamesh: have you changed the 'is merged' test as I described ? | 03:53 |

| micro_girl | hum, so, where should I mail it to? | 03:54 |
| jamesh | micro_girl: information on signing up to the mailing list is here: http://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/rosetta-users | 03:54 |
| lifeless | to see if REMOTE is merged into THIS, 'if remote.last_revision in this.get_ancestry(this.last_revision())' | 03:55 |
| jamesh | lifeless: that's what it is doing right now, isn't it? | 03:56 |
| micro_girl | ok, thanks | 03:56 |
| lifeless | jamesh: the code I wrote did 'if remote.last_revision in this' | 03:56 |
| jamesh | it grabs the revid of the given revision number, and checks to see if that revision is in the branch in the given directory | 03:56 |
| lifeless | 'in branch' and 'in ancestry' are different | 03:57 |

| micro_girl | lifeless, what do you mean by that? | 03:59 |
| lifeless | micro_girl: you have a '.' at the end of lists.ubuntu.com. While its technically valid, it looks like your mail setup rejects it, so just use 'rosetaa-users@lists.ubuntu.com' instead. | 04:00 |
| lifeless | erm, spelling rosetta correctly of course | 04:00 |
| lifeless | jamesh: I've pushed a branch with a pending change, care to kick a run off ? | 04:00 |
| micro_girl | hym, ok... | 04:01 |
| jamesh | lifeless: will in a sec. | 04:03 |
| stub | So breezy bzr is good enough for the production systems, and will happily sftp branches from chinstrap and work with cm.py etc.? | 04:09 |
| === stub is about to send a request to rt detailing what is needed | ||
| stub | lifeless: Unless you want me to defer that until things are more solid | 04:10 |
| lifeless | stub: we should run bzr from source | 04:10 |
| jamesh | lifeless: okay. it seems to be doing the right thing, but the output is missing some bits | 04:11 |
| lifeless | for end users, they can use jbaileys packages | 04:11 |
| jamesh | lifeless: I'll update the script and do a full run | 04:11 |
| lifeless | but for our systems, we just unpack it and put a symlink to .../bzr on our path | 04:11 |
| lifeless | stub: there are lots of changes still coming, we will have grief if we do otherwise | 04:11 |
| stub | ok. | 04:12 |
| stub | So just config-manager and python-bazaar are the new things needed | 04:12 |
| lifeless | pycrypto is the only dependency (at the moment) that debs are needed for | 04:12 |
| stub | and pycrypto | 04:12 |
| lifeless | pybaz we should get installed via debs I think | 04:12 |
| lifeless | its quite stable and not churning much | 04:12 |
| lifeless | config-manager can run from source, or from debs. | 04:13 |
| lifeless | 0.1p123 in sid works with current bzr | 04:13 |
| stub | Running stuff from source rather than snapshots means we will end up with inconsistencies between what we are running on staging and what is used for rollouts and updates. | 04:14 |
| stub | So I think anything that won't need updating weekly can come from a deb | 04:15 |
| lifeless | ok | 04:15 |
| lifeless | though I worry it will give us gried | 04:15 |
| lifeless | *grief* | 04:15 |
| stub | cm.py from sid rather than the wget url on the wiki? | 04:15 |
| lifeless | I'd really rather we have a tarball of what we need in source, for production/staging/dogfood and we use that | 04:16 |
| lifeless | we can update that from rsync | 04:16 |
| lifeless | i.e. the /home/warthogs/source subdir | 04:16 |
| stub | That sounds fine. | 04:16 |
| stub | We should push it from emperor though | 04:16 |
| lifeless | yes, cm.py from sid is usable now | 04:16 |
| lifeless | emperor ? | 04:16 |
| stub | It is at the highest point in our attack tree (apart from our laptops) | 04:17 |
| stub | And any proxy servers and dns server since we are installing unsigned debs :-( | 04:17 |
| lifeless | uhm | 04:19 |
| lifeless | ok | 04:20 |
| lifeless | but I warn you, I'll be getting it onto emperor from chinstrap and people.u.c | 04:20 |
| stub | the source it is pulling should all be signed | 04:21 |
| lifeless | what are you trying to guard against? what vector | 04:21 |
| stub | If I'm pulling a tarball from, say, chinstrap and installing it onto emperor then anyone who can modify that tarball has access to the postgres user on emperor (which is everything important) | 04:22 |
| lifeless | right | 04:24 |
| lifeless | so we lock down who can modify that directory | 04:24 |
| stub | chinstrap is an insecure box, so locking down isn't that meaningful | 04:25 |
| lifeless | all of our source is stored and considered canonical on chinstrap | 04:25 |
| lifeless | lock down better bloody be meaningful | 04:25 |
| lifeless | or we are all already up the poo | 04:25 |
| stub | stored GPG signed so can't be futzed with I hope | 04:25 |
| lifeless | its signed by a key ON CHINSTRAP | 04:26 |
| stub | ok. which makes our whole network a flat security space as insecure as our general access box with lots of accounts with literally hundreds of attack vectors :-( | 04:27 |
| lifeless | a key that if lockdown works, you, me, elmo and znarl are the only people with access to | 04:27 |
| lifeless | yes it does | 04:27 |
| lifeless | I'm not defending that | 04:27 |
| lifeless | I'm just arguing against false-security sense | 04:27 |
| stub | Yup. That makes my life easier anyway. Less pointless bending over backwards. | 04:28 |
| lifeless | putting this on emperor would not increase security, only increase difficulty. | 04:28 |
| lifeless | right | 04:28 |
| stub | Is PQM already sheduled to move to a different box? | 04:34 |
| stub | I recall someone mentioning a dedicated box for running tests which might go towards solving this too. | 04:37 |
| lifeless | no, its not | 04:37 |
| jamesh | lifeless: you've got conflicts! https://chinstrap.ubuntu.com/~jamesh/pending-reviews/ | 04:38 |
| jamesh | (which probably means everything should work correctly now) | 04:39 |
| lifeless | cool | 04:42 |
| stub | https://launchpad.net/products/launchpad/+spec/securing-rocketfuel/ | 04:42 |
| lifeless | compomized | 04:43 |
| stub | thats a technical term | 04:44 |
| lifeless | AIUI the plan was to move users off chinstrao | 04:47 |
| lifeless | not to move pqm | 04:47 |
| stub | ok. We can discuss it at ubz anyway. The Zombie Hordes scenario isn't possible yet. | 04:50 |

| jamesh | the first icon on the toolbar lets you pick an element (in the original firefox window) | 04:51 |
| jamesh | if you click the icon in the top left of the second pane, you can switch it to "CSS Style Rules" | 04:52 |

| jamesh | uriel: collections of products can be grouped into projects | 05:26 |
| uriel | jamesh: ah, that clens up the relationship between 'products' and 'projects' a bit for me, thanks | 05:27 |

| sabdfl | uriel: it can let you set translation permissions etc on a whole bunch of products | 05:33 |
| === WaterSevenUb [n=WaterSev@195-23-220-204.net.novis.pt] has joined #launchpad | ||
| sabdfl | in time it will be a nice way to display aggregated information across a bunch of products | 05:34 |
| sabdfl | so, bugs in all different launchpad products (rosetta, malone, etc) | 05:34 |
| sabdfl | for example | 05:34 |
| uriel | sabdfl: oh, I see, yes, it would be handy when you have more users and projects.. | 05:35 |
| sabdfl | right | 05:35 |
| sabdfl | add a product and voila you have translators and permissions all configured already | 05:35 |
| sabdfl | but that part of the system is not very well exercised right now | 05:35 |
| uriel | only problem I see right now is that the terminology is a bit confusing, in particular "produduct", but I guess that is mostly a UI issue | 05:36 |
| sivang | uriel: grouping together products may be of help to you when you have several ones that play together to achive a higher goal, like the bits and pieces that construct on OS for example :) | 05:38 |
| sabdfl | SteveA: hmm... navigation question for you | 05:38 |
| sivang | uriel: so then you can track for example, all the bugs/translation/[..] work that still need be done in order to satisfy the higher level goal. (of the project) | 05:38 |
| uriel | sivang: yes, makes sense | 05:38 |
| sabdfl | sivang: an example would be launchpad. we have the launchpad product, and rosetta, and malone, and the spec tracker... | 05:39 |
| sivang | sabdfl: Ubuntu as well :-) Although there are many more bits and pieces there | 05:39 |
| sabdfl | another example would be mozilla. they have gecko and necko and firefox and mozilla-app-suite... | 05:39 |
| sivang | right | 05:39 |
| sabdfl | sivang: we model distros directly | 05:39 |
| sabdfl | /distros/ | 05:39 |
| uriel | sivang: maybe it would be simpler to have a single conceputal entity "project" which can be nested(eg., sub-projects), but maybe that would just make things more complex in the end | 05:39 |
| sivang | sabdfl: ah right ;-) | 05:39 |
| sivang | sabdfl: hence the switch over from products/ubuntu to distros/ubuntu | 05:41 |

| uriel | hummm.. the way the Title field in releases work is a bit strange, in the main page it's listed under "codename" but it always append the series name before it and then adds quotes around what one has set as title and around the whole string.. | 05:50 |
| uriel | bug or feature? | 05:52 |
| jamesh | australia has banned importing of live birds from Canada because of bird flu | 05:55 |
| jamesh | the canadians deny any problem | 05:55 |
| uriel | from canada? I thought they only had mad cows over there.. | 05:57 |
| zyga | uriel: nah | 05:57 |

| kiko-fud | man | 06:06 |
| kiko-fud | why is PQM such a piece of @#@!$@@!# | 06:06 |
| sivang | uriel: where are you from? | 06:08 |
| uriel | sivang: I'm from spain, living in Sweden at the moment, hopefully not for long, want to move to germany or canada | 06:09 |
| sivang | uriel: spain? cool! Btw you have a very israeli name :) | 06:09 |
| kiko-fud | afaik it's a common name in .sp | 06:10 |
| uriel | sivang: well, I don't think it's israeli, just that it's only pupular there AFAIK, never meet anyone with the same name, but I have heard it's quite common in Israel, yes | 06:10 |
| kiko-fud | err | 06:10 |
| kiko-fud | .es | 06:10 |
| sivang | uriel: sorry, not israeli, but hebrew sounding :) | 06:10 |
| uriel | kiko: don't think so, i lived in Spain for many years, and never heard of anyone called Uriel | 06:11 |
| Keybuk | sivang: uriel was the angel of fire, was it not? | 06:11 |
| sivang | kiko: actually, I came to know that many spanish people have hebrew sounding names. Like Mirial, Gabriel etc | 06:11 |
| sivang | Keybuk: IIRC | 06:11 |
| sivang | uriel: I have 3 freinds by that name :) | 06:11 |
| kiko | uriel, I have met 3 people named uriel in spain. | 06:11 |
| sivang | s/Mirial/Miriam/ | 06:11 |
| uriel | sivang: it's an archangel, like Gabriel, Miguel and Rafael(IIRC), but it's apocriphous, that is why it's not very popular in xtian countries I guess | 06:12 |
| uriel | kiko: are you sure? that sounds very strange, sure you don't mean "Oriol"(which can sound similar) which is popular in Catalonia | 06:12 |
| === sivang gets reminded at the nice sights of barcelona :) | ||
| kiko | nope | 06:13 |
| uriel | barcelona is a nice city | 06:13 |
| uriel | kiko: really strange then... | 06:13 |
| uriel | kiko: where are you from? and where did you meet such people, I never even heard of anyone called Uriel :) | 06:14 |
| uriel | Keybuk: yes, archangel actually | 06:15 |
| kiko | uriel, I'm from brazil. It's not a common name here, but IIRC I met one Uriel last year in Matar! | 06:15 |
| sivang | sabdfl: can I rename a spec's name after it was registered in spec tracker? | 06:16 |
| sivang | sabdfl: (referring to its launchpad-dashed-name) | 06:16 |
| uriel | kiko: most strange... oh well, I dont' know many people, so maybe its' that :) | 06:16 |
| === uriel pokes around +addpackage page... rather confusing.. | ||
| sabdfl | sivang: no, but i can | 06:16 |
| kiko | heh | 06:16 |
| sivang | sabdfl: you the DBA for it? :) | 06:17 |
| sabdfl | it will take a little while to get the permissions all fixed up | 06:17 |
| sabdfl | no, there's an admin page that allows for renaming | 06:17 |
| sabdfl | i don't see any problem with letting people rename it | 06:17 |
| sivang | sabdfl: ah, does it depend on my key getting signed? | 06:17 |
| sabdfl | no | 06:17 |
| sivang | ok | 06:17 |
| sabdfl | i think the person who registered it would be able to do this | 06:18 |
| uriel | any chance that "Upstream Source Import" would allow plain source tarballs? | 06:18 |
| sivang | then I should talk to mdz then | 06:18 |
| sabdfl | uriel: the point there is to map cvs or svn into bzr | 06:18 |
| sabdfl | sivang: i can do it too, launchpad admins can rename most things | 06:18 |
| sabdfl | which spec, and what name do you want? | 06:19 |
| uriel | sabdfl: yes, there are many projects that don't even use a revision control system(or the one they use is not baz/svn/cvs) | 06:19 |
| sabdfl | uriel: then yes, we have a way to support those, as long as they may well-named releases | 06:20 |
| uriel | maybe Iw ill just create a bazaar branch out of it by hand, no big deal | 06:20 |
| sabdfl | uriel: use bzr (bazaar 2.0) from www.bazaar-ng.org | 06:20 |
| uriel | sabdfl: what is 'well-named releases"? :) | 06:20 |
| sabdfl | all of launchpad is being converted to use that | 06:20 |
| sabdfl | uriel: like foo 1.2.3, foo 1.2.4 | 06:20 |
| sabdfl | you can say "here is the dir for foo, here is the glob for foo 1.2" and then it should work | 06:21 |
| sivang | sabdfl: in a sec, I'd like your feedback on it before acutally doing it | 06:21 |
| uriel | hmmm.. how good is bzr's backwards compati with baz? I'm using baz for various projects at the moment(specially at work) and I'm not sure I can migrate everything at once | 06:21 |
| sabdfl | uriel: ask Keybuk | 06:21 |
| sabdfl | uriel: there is a converter | 06:21 |
| uriel | oh, cool | 06:21 |
| sabdfl | bzr is much faster, cleaner, i think it will storm the rcs world :-) | 06:21 |
| uriel | ah, and I think I did the glob thing already, that is done in "Release Series" right? | 06:22 |
| sabdfl | uriel: yes | 06:22 |
| sabdfl | i think with a bit of luck that could be all you need | 06:22 |
| sabdfl | but check with keybuk | 06:22 |
| uriel | well, I have used tla(ugh... tom is smart too much an nut case), baz, git and darcs, and I'm not completely happy with any of them(no comment about svn, what an abomination) | 06:23 |
| uriel | sabdfl: thanks, will do | 06:24 |
| Keybuk | you can do a one-time conversion of your archives from baz to bzr | 06:24 |
| sabdfl | uriel: you will like bzr | 06:24 |
| uriel | Keybuk: my problem is that I probably need to stay backwards compatible, I have enough trouble having people at work switch to baz cvs(yes, they are stupid) | 06:24 |
| sabdfl | Keybuk: one-time in the sense that having got them to bzr you go "OH MY GOD THAT IS WONDERFUL" and never want to touch baz again? | 06:24 |
| Keybuk | pretty much | 06:25 |
| Keybuk | uriel: baz can't read bzr archives, and vice-versa | 06:25 |
| uriel | sabdfl: we will see, I was very disapointed to hear from lifeless that bzr uses XML in it's archive format | 06:25 |
| Keybuk | what's wrong with XML? | 06:25 |
| uriel | Keybuk: ok, cool | 06:25 |
| sabdfl | i must say i nearly danced around the house after playing with the zope-in-bzr test | 06:25 |
| uriel | Keybuk: what is right with XML? :) | 06:25 |
| Keybuk | uriel: it's a fairly easy to construct and parse file format that you can find bindings for in just about every language | 06:26 |
| Keybuk | and humans can read/write it too | 06:26 |
| sabdfl | uriel: it's a very simple usage, and solves a lot of issues w.r.t. unicode etc that Just Work | 06:26 |
| sabdfl | there's no real complex data in there | 06:26 |
| uriel | Keybuk: easy to parse? ugh? and humans can read it? ugh? | 06:26 |
| uriel | sabdfl: just UTF-8 plain text files work just fine | 06:26 |
| Keybuk | utf-8 plain text files don't have structure | 06:26 |
| sabdfl | uriel: you still need to delineate structure | 06:26 |
| sabdfl | for example | 06:26 |
| uriel | Keybuk: you are suposed to provide that ;) | 06:27 |
| Keybuk | so if you want to write a parser, you have to figure it out | 06:27 |
| sabdfl | /home/foobar.txt id id 3442-342-422 | 06:27 |
| uriel | most of the time key=val works well enough, and awk and sed parse it very well :) | 06:27 |
| sabdfl | imagine the filename is actually "foobar.txt id" | 06:27 |
| uriel | there are various ways you can do that, eg make the file name the last field(allowing \n in file names is not very good idea) | 06:28 |
| sabdfl | with xml the structure is there, and as long as you are sensible and resist the temptation to add all sorts of crack, its just fire and forget | 06:28 |
| sabdfl | last field? | 06:28 |
| uriel | or you can use a very simple quoting scheme | 06:28 |
| Keybuk | uriel: \n is an allowed character in filenames :p | 06:28 |
| sabdfl | until you want to add more fields :-) | 06:28 |
| sabdfl | and what keybuk said :-) | 06:28 |
| Keybuk | \0 is the only character you can absolutely guarantee isn't in a filename | 06:28 |
| Keybuk | and now you've just lost your plain text format and turned it into a binary format | 06:29 |
| uriel | sabdfl: well, you can use groups of fields, one per line, it all depends on what data you want | 06:29 |
| uriel | Keybuk: and / | 06:29 |
| sabdfl | and how do you deal with \n? | 06:29 |
| Keybuk | unless you come up with a quoting scheme, and then the "learning to write a parser" cost goes through the roof | 06:29 |
| sabdfl | escaping! | 06:29 |
| sabdfl | and then... you end up with TLA | 06:29 |
| uriel | Keybuk: and are you really sure you want to allow people have \n in file names? | 06:29 |
| Keybuk | uriel: unix allows it, so bzr shouldn't stop you | 06:29 |
| Keybuk | "sorry, you can't name a filename foo" | 06:29 |
| Keybuk | that's the kind of thing tla used to do | 06:29 |
| sabdfl | uriel: are you really sure you want to write a version control system that can't version control any unix file? | 06:29 |
| uriel | Keybuk: yes, unix allows it, but lots of things will break.. | 06:30 |
| Keybuk | "nope, you can't commit if you *gasp* have a core file in your tree" | 06:30 |
| sabdfl | uriel: bzr won't | 06:30 |
| sabdfl | anyhow | 06:30 |
| sabdfl | try it | 06:30 |
| sabdfl | it's very, very tasteful | 06:30 |
| uriel | I still there are many better ways to do it than XML | 06:30 |
| Keybuk | uriel: once you realise you need to store a tree of properties for filenames, you end up with a lot of parsing problems | 06:30 |
| uriel | and there are reasonable middle ground between the tla insanity and "anything is allowed" | 06:31 |
| sabdfl | apt-get install bzr; cd ~/mytexts/; bzr init; bzr info | 06:31 |
| Keybuk | and at that point, it's far easier just to pick a standard file format | 06:31 |
| sabdfl | anyhow, <--- #bzr | 06:31 |
| uriel | sabdfl: yes, I completely agree that should just work | 06:31 |

| sivang | Hi SteveA_ | 06:37 |
| sivang | phew. | 06:44 |
| sivang | brainstorming is intense, but fun :) | 06:45 |
| SteveA_ | arse... looks like pqm is kinda hung again | 06:45 |
| sivang | sabdfl: inspired by mdz's proposel for policy decision archiving, I rolled https://wiki.launchpad.canonical.com/DistroPolicyTracker, so basically I want to change the spec name of https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+spec/archiving-policy-decisions , to +spec/distro-policy-tracker | 06:46 |
| mdz | sivang: you cannot change the name of a spec presently. just change the URL if you have started writing a spec | 06:47 |
| sabdfl | sounds good. mdz, +admin on the spec should work if you registered it, or if you are launchpad.Admin | 06:48 |
| sabdfl | i will change it now | 06:48 |
| sivang | sabdfl: thanks :) | 06:48 |
| sabdfl | done | 06:48 |
| sabdfl | hey mdz | 06:48 |
| mdz | sabdfl: morning | 06:48 |
| sabdfl | i wish. the day has rather disappeared, and all i'm left with is a mockup of the spec filtering UI :-) | 06:49 |
| mdz | that's the most appropriate greeting I can manage on <4 hours' sleep | 06:49 |
| mdz | sabdfl: good to know about +admin; there are a few other specs I noted as needing to be renamed | 06:50 |
| sivang | oh, I can't change a spec that's been registered by someone else then myself ? | 06:53 |
| sivang | (tryin to edit text on that same spec) | 06:53 |
| sabdfl | sivang: we don't have a way to track changes, so we have not allowed "wiki mode" | 06:53 |
| sivang | sabdfl: ah ok | 06:54 |
| sabdfl | though, in general, i think we should let people edit anything except priority | 06:54 |
| sivang | understood | 06:54 |
| mdz | sivang: speaking of which, until we get the defaults set up appropriately, please set any new specs to wishlist and set them to be reviewed by me | 06:55 |
| sivang | I see, well, if tracking changes will be implemented it would probably worthwhile to enable it to rollback transactions, such that if someone spams something, there will be a way to go back...but that's probably future future plans | 06:55 |
| sivang | mdz: ah ok, sorry. I thought there was other "magical" way for someone to review them, even if you don't explicitly request review | 06:56 |
| mdz | sivang: the "magical" way is that I notice new specs in the list and manually review them | 06:56 |
| sivang | mdz: ok, can you tag reviewd specs as such? | 06:56 |
| mdz | any spec proposal which has been successfully reviewed will have my name attached to it somewhere | 06:57 |
| mdz | there is also the matter of which specs are associated with ubz | 06:57 |
| sivang | ok, cool. works for me | 06:57 |
| sivang | ah, well, there's a problem here. On all the ones I registered, I "Add to meeting"'d so they are all there IIRC. (JaneW added them, so I was sure they were of interest an thus approved but not announced | 06:59 |

| sabdfl | sivang: we went through a phase where we kept creating "sets" of things | 07:33 |
| sabdfl | everything was a friggen set | 07:33 |
| sabdfl | and i got sick of it so i have been cleaning them out left, rght and center | 07:33 |

| sivang | I see | 07:34 |
| sivang | :-/ | 07:34 |
| sivang | ouch | 07:34 |
| sabdfl | i just found a place i want a SpecificationSet | 07:34 |
| sivang | like set of specs that relate to to the same feature? | 07:34 |
| sabdfl | no | 07:34 |
| sabdfl | the set of specs for a particular thing, subject to filters | 07:34 |
| gualteri | i mean some way to contribute thinks like user guides in other formats? | 07:35 |

| === sivang is now known as sivang-fud | ||
| SteveA_ | sabdfl: please call it a SpecificationSubset, not a SpecificationSet | 07:43 |
| SteveA_ | that way, it is clear that not all specifications are available from there | 07:43 |
| SteveA_ | or, a SpecificationCollection | 07:43 |
| SteveA_ | or something that doesn't confuse it with a ContentSet as an entry-point into the database stuff | 07:43 |
| sabdfl | hey stevea | 07:45 |
| sabdfl | ok, i'm trying hard to avoid it altogether | 07:45 |
| sabdfl | it makes everything else so ugly | 07:45 |
| SteveA_ | yeha | 07:45 |
| SteveA_ | yeah | 07:45 |
| sabdfl | but... here's the drill | 07:45 |
| sabdfl | i'm tyring to come up with this super-slick UI for filtering the spec list | 07:46 |
| SteveA_ | i think there's a place for a browser-level 'filter' object | 07:46 |
| SteveA_ | that is part of this filtering ui concept | 07:46 |
| SteveA_ | rather than a database-level 'set' | 07:46 |
| === SteveA_ waves hands around | ||
| sabdfl | but here's the issue | 07:46 |
| sabdfl | i want to express this filter through a series of portlets | 07:47 |
| sabdfl | for grouping, filtering, sorting, etc | 07:47 |
| sabdfl | make sense? | 07:47 |
| sabdfl | each portlet will invoke a new View class | 07:47 |
| SteveA_ | portlets? nope, lost track at that point... | 07:47 |
| sabdfl | ok, imagine the screen, with a loooong list of specs | 07:47 |
| SteveA_ | k | 07:47 |
| sabdfl | you want to filter down | 07:47 |
| sabdfl | so you want to be able to click in one place to see only the specs that are pending approval, say | 07:48 |
| sabdfl | or, you want with a single click to sort by priority, rather than status | 07:48 |
| SteveA_ | a bit like a canned query | 07:48 |
| SteveA_ | but integrated into the ui | 07:48 |
| sabdfl | well, remember that example i showed you? | 07:48 |
| sabdfl | its not a canned query | 07:48 |
| sabdfl | the query is built up through a succession of clicks | 07:49 |
| SteveA_ | right | 07:49 |
| sabdfl | at that point it can be bookmarked | 07:49 |
| sabdfl | and there ARE a set of canned queries, i call them "Default Views" or "Standard Views" | 07:49 |
| SteveA_ | but, i guess, you can go from a canned query and modify it | 07:49 |
| SteveA_ | to make a bespoke one | 07:49 |
| SteveA_ | by clicking | 07:49 |
| sabdfl | https://wiki.launchpad.canonical.com/MarkShuttleworth | 07:51 |
| sabdfl | screenshot ^^^ | 07:51 |
| sabdfl | don't get excited, its all just mockup, there's no code behind it | 07:52 |
| SteveA_ | ok | 07:52 |
| SteveA_ | i get the idea | 07:52 |
| jbailey | sivang-fud: No idea, sorry | 07:53 |
| sabdfl | SteveA_: there are some extreme trickinesses, though | 07:53 |
| jbailey | sivang-fud: One of the docteam folks arranged the import. I only did the export. | 07:53 |
| sabdfl | like, to show the "current" ones you actually want a SET OF STATUSES not status > foo | 07:53 |
| sabdfl | sortorder of dbschemas gets very tricky | 07:54 |
| SteveA_ | it's hard to change later too | 07:54 |
| gualteri | sivang: thanks, but I was looking for something in the direction of general documentation/guide not only translations of program strings | 07:54 |
| === GoRoDeK [n=gorodek@p5083FBF5.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #launchpad | ||
| SteveA_ | sabdfl: we can add a feature to dbschema to do schema-specific sorting of items. | 07:57 |
| SteveA_ | sabdfl: that is, specify in the dbschema class how it is to be sorted, independently of what int values it may have. | 07:58 |
| SteveA_ | anyway, we can talk about this with code / whiteboard on tuesday if there are any issues left for you by then. | 07:59 |
| sabdfl | sure | 07:59 |
| sabdfl | the thing that grates me with SubSet's is that your context item has changed | 07:59 |

| sabdfl | that page is horrible | 07:59 |
| SteveA_ | also, there's been a problem with keeping state in these things, in the past | 08:00 |
| SteveA_ | we need to get state in every request, or explicitly keep the state in the session | 08:00 |

| sabdfl | hmm... i think i have a cunning plan | 08:00 |
