| Rinchen | [TOPIC] Oops report (Matsubara) | 18:05 |
| MootBot | New Topic: Oops report (Matsubara) | 18:05 |
| matsubara | I have only one new oops to report. Filed as bug 207818 | 18:05 |
| ubotu | Launchpad bug 207818 in malone "Change bug watch form needs better validation when a non-URL is entered" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/207818 | 18:05 |
| matsubara | BjornT, it's a rare occurance (happened only 3 times) but it'd be nice to have it fixed. Is it possible to schedule a fix for the next week 0? | 18:06 |
| Rinchen | which is next week | 18:06 |
| matsubara | exactly :-) | 18:06 |
| BjornT | matsubara: yes, that should be possible. | 18:06 |
| matsubara | tomorrow I'll follow up with the teams if there are any new OOPSes after the release | 18:07 |
| Rinchen | [AGREED] Bjorn to attempt to schedule bug 207818 for the next week 0 | 18:07 |
| MootBot | AGREED received: Bjorn to attempt to schedule bug 207818 for the next week 0 | 18:07 |

| matsubara | btw, oops.cgi is broken and I'm fixing it. | 18:07 |
| matsubara | thanks BjornT | 18:07 |
| matsubara | apart from that, I'm done. back to you Rinchen | 18:07 |
| Rinchen | thanks | 18:07 |
| Rinchen | [TOPIC] Critical Bugs (Rinchen) | 18:07 |
| MootBot | New Topic: Critical Bugs (Rinchen) | 18:07 |
| Rinchen | [LINK] https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/launchpad/+bug/196936 | 18:07 |
| Rinchen | abel, how is this going? This is now about three weeks old. Perhaps this should be high and not critical? | 18:07 |
| MootBot | LINK received: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/launchpad/+bug/196936 | 18:07 |
| Rinchen | adeuring ^^ | 18:08 |
| adeuring | Rinchen, I'm waiting for the review ... | 18:08 |
| kiko | adeuring, waiting for 3 weeks? :) | 18:08 |
| adeuring | kiko: well, one week | 18:08 |
| Rinchen | [LINK] https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/launchpad/+bug/207490 | 18:08 |
| Rinchen | [LINK] https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/launchpad/+bug/207494 | 18:08 |
| Rinchen | allenap, you're working on these as release critical yes? Can we help any way? | 18:08 |
| MootBot | LINK received: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/launchpad/+bug/207490 | 18:08 |
| MootBot | LINK received: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/launchpad/+bug/207494 | 18:08 |
| Rinchen | help IN any way that is | 18:08 |
| allenap | Rinchen: intellectronica finished the second one off and they're in PQM afaik. | 18:09 |
| Rinchen | allenap, sweet thanks | 18:09 |
| Rinchen | adeuring, do you need a reviewer for it? I hear from a good source that salgado is today's on-call reviewer | 18:09 |
| adeuring | It is already on Curtis's queue | 18:09 |
| kiko | adeuring, why didn't you use on-call? | 18:10 |
| kiko | adeuring, it's completely unacceptable for a patch to go for a week with no review | 18:10 |
| kiko | and it's not anybody's fault but yours -- you need to find somebody to review it, not idly wait for it to happen | 18:10 |
| adeuring | kiko: yes, right... | 18:10 |
| kiko | please follow up with an on-call reviewer | 18:10 |
| kiko | this was critical.. | 18:10 |
| adeuring | kiko: OK | 18:10 |
| kiko | anyway | 18:10 |
| Rinchen | [TOPIC] Bug tags | 18:11 |
| MootBot | New Topic: Bug tags | 18:11 |
| Rinchen | we have two | 18:11 |
| * sinzui hangs head in shame for not seeing it | 18:11 | |
| Rinchen | https://help.launchpad.net/TaggingLaunchpadBugs | 18:11 |
| Rinchen | spurious-test-failure by kiko and BjornT | 18:11 |
| Rinchen | we skipped this last week since both of you were absent | 18:11 |
| kiko | well, look at that -- a candidate :) | 18:11 |
| thumper | it's a tad long isn't it? | 18:11 |
| kiko | thumper, and? | 18:12 |
| kiko | I mean, it's /good/ that it's long | 18:12 |
| * thumper shrugs | 18:12 | |
| Rinchen | what purpose would this solve over simply using the test-system tag? | 18:12 |
| kiko | being able to easily find these bugs when we have an occurrence? | 18:12 |
| Rinchen | hmm, there are 73 tagged with test-system today | 18:13 |
| kiko | that's the main use case | 18:13 |
| kiko | I'm not strongly +1 but I think it would help to tie this to a process (search using this URL, and research+file if not, email list, | 18:13 |
| Rinchen | so for these they would have 3 tags | 18:13 |
| kiko | etc) | 18:13 |
| Rinchen | infrastructure, test-system, and spurious-test-failure | 18:14 |
| Rinchen | BjornT, matsubara - your input? | 18:14 |
| thumper | Rinchen: a spuriour-test-failure might have nothing to do with infrastructure | 18:15 |
| kiko | right | 18:15 |
| BjornT | Rinchen: i don't think they would automatically have three tags. just because it's a spurious test failure, it doesn't mean that it's infrastructure | 18:15 |
| kiko | infrastructure is a pretty useless tag tbh | 18:15 |
| Rinchen | thumper, indeed but currently all test-system related failures are tagged with both | 18:15 |
| Rinchen | kiko, yeah, I have to agree on that | 18:15 |
| flacoste | yeah, not everything is our fault | 18:15 |
| Rinchen | kiko, It's rare that something is only tagged as infrastructure | 18:15 |
| kiko | flacoste, now I did NOT say that :) | 18:15 |
| stub | Just your responsibility :-) | 18:15 |
| matsubara | the infrastructure tag is from a time before the foundations team | 18:16 |
| kiko | I'm +1 for retiring that silly tag | 18:16 |
| flacoste | and change it to foundations? | 18:16 |
| kiko | and not have a tag | 18:16 |
| kiko | unless you see a purpose in tagging it that way? | 18:16 |
| Rinchen | I think the infrastructure tag is too general to serve any purpose these days so +1 | 18:17 |
| matsubara | -1 in retiring tags unless we have mass tag change in launchpad | 18:17 |
| flacoste | yeah, it means that there is some infrastructure design involved | 18:17 |
| Rinchen | we'll have to modify 173 bugs though | 18:17 |
| kiko | UPDATE bugtags ... | 18:17 |
| BjornT | Rinchen: still, if a bug has spurious-test-failure, it's not necessarily to to with testing infrastructure, so test-system might not be valid there | 18:17 |
| kiko | agreed | 18:18 |
| Rinchen | I see no overwhelming disapproval to the spurious-test-failure failure so | 18:18 |
| flacoste | sold | 18:18 |
| Rinchen | [AGREED] spurious-test-failure tag approved. Kiko to update the tagging bug page | 18:18 |
| MootBot | AGREED received: spurious-test-failure tag approved. Kiko to update the tagging bug page | 18:18 |
| Rinchen | is there a consensus on retiring infrastructure? | 18:19 |
| Rinchen | anyone against it? | 18:19 |
| Rinchen | and who will update those 173 bugs | 18:19 |
| kiko | does it serve /any/ use? | 18:19 |
| * Rinchen looks at kiko. | 18:19 | |
| * SteveA belatedly says "me" | 18:19 | |
| Rinchen | https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/launchpad/+bug/145746 | 18:19 |
| ubotu | Launchpad bug 145746 in launchpad "Upgrade to zope 3.3.1" [High,Triaged] | 18:19 |
| * thumper looks at SteveA agreeing to update 173 bugs | 18:20 | |
| Rinchen | there are some valid uses for Francis perhaps | 18:20 |
| kiko | yes, let's not kill him today | 18:20 |
| kiko | that tag, OTOH | 18:20 |
| Rinchen | flacoste, what's your opinion since this is in your area | 18:20 |
| BjornT | do have to remove the tag, just because we retire it? why not just let it fade way? | 18:20 |
| kiko | we can also let it fade away | 18:20 |
| kiko | I just don't see any use in advertising it | 18:20 |
| Rinchen | yes, what kiko said | 18:20 |
| Rinchen | anyone against this? | 18:21 |
| flacoste | Rinchen: hmm | 18:21 |
| Rinchen | flacoste, matsubara ? | 18:21 |
| flacoste | i think i am against | 18:21 |
| flacoste | yeah, i think it does has a purpose | 18:21 |
| flacoste | it collects information on infrastructure need we have | 18:21 |
| kiko | when have you used it? | 18:21 |
| Rinchen | the zope item above | 18:22 |
| flacoste | in planning before 2.0 | 18:22 |
| Rinchen | it's one of the few bugs I see that are infrastructure only | 18:22 |
| * kiko shrugs | 18:22 | |
| matsubara | I find it useful, specially to address things that should be foundations responsability :-) | 18:22 |
| flacoste | Rinchen: infrastructure to me means any library-level stuff we need, not necessarily external infrastructure | 18:22 |
| kiko | ok, never mind then | 18:22 |
| Rinchen | matsubara, isn't that the ENTIRE launchpad product? ;-) | 18:22 |
| flacoste | matsubara: kiko's view is what Rinchen just said | 18:23 |
| Rinchen | [AGREED] we will not retire the infrastructure tag just yet. | 18:23 |
| MootBot | AGREED received: we will not retire the infrastructure tag just yet. | 18:23 |
| Rinchen | ok, the OTHER bug tag | 18:23 |
| flacoste | but not everything in the launchpad product infrastructure though | 18:23 |
| kiko | so much controversy!!! | 18:23 |
| Rinchen | mpt would like to retire the UI tag | 18:23 |
| flacoste | so the need for the tag | 18:23 |
| flacoste | i'm -1 on that | 18:23 |
| kiko | why? | 18:23 |
| thumper | how should we tag ui bugs then? | 18:23 |
| mpt | The "ui" tag was defined as "A bug that suggests the user interface is confusing or otherwise difficult to use" | 18:23 |
| BjornT | looking at the bugs currently tagged with infrastructure, i'd say most of them shouldn't have that tag | 18:24 |
| flacoste | right | 18:24 |
| mpt | But for whatever reason, people haven't used it that way | 18:24 |
| matsubara | yeah, -1 on that unless we can come up with other tags to replace it | 18:24 |
| flacoste | mpt: given that sense, it's not useful | 18:24 |
| kiko | flacoste, so you want to keep that tag? fine -- clean up your bugs :) | 18:24 |
| mpt | They've used it to refer to any bug that touches the UI | 18:24 |
| flacoste | mpt: right | 18:24 |
| mpt | which is about 1/2 of them :-) | 18:24 |
| kiko | mpt, right. so why not add a new one called confusing-interface | 18:24 |
| kiko | or something like that? | 18:24 |
| thumper | mpt: I tend to use it to refer to bugs that are purely ui related | 18:24 |
| * flacoste too | 18:24 | |
| * Rinchen three | 18:24 | |
| mpt | The other reason is that I don't think anyone actually uses it. | 18:24 |
| * thumper uses it | 18:25 | |
| matsubara | I don | 18:25 |
| matsubara | I do | 18:25 |
| matsubara | well, I tag those | 18:25 |
| mpt | I don't mean uses it as in adds it | 18:25 |
| mpt | I mean actually uses it as in filters on it. | 18:25 |
| matsubara | but they'd be more useful when bug #176437, is fixed | 18:25 |
| ubotu | Launchpad bug 176437 in malone "Conditional searching with tags" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/176437 | 18:25 |
| Rinchen | I actually use it when I look at your workload mpt :-) | 18:25 |
| mpt | And I don't think that would change even if we changed its meaning. | 18:25 |
| Rinchen | it is nice to have a list of all UI based issues | 18:26 |
| mpt | Rinchen, many of the bugs tagged with UI are bugs I can't fix | 18:26 |
| Rinchen | that is true | 18:26 |
| Rinchen | many of those require help from Foundations | 18:26 |
| thumper | I like the idea of a confusing-user-interface tag (confusing-interface could refer to zope) | 18:26 |
| kiko | thumper, :) | 18:26 |
| mpt | I don't think it's useful to have a tag that could be applied to ~1/2 of all bug reports. | 18:27 |
| thumper | lol | 18:27 |
| abentley | thumper: Wouldn't confusing-framework refer to Zope? | 18:27 |
| Rinchen | I admit I would rather have a tag for accessibility/usability issues rather than a generic UI tag | 18:27 |
| Rinchen | I don't care if something is confusing or not, really. | 18:27 |
| mpt | Who would use (as in filter on) a tag for accessibility/usability issues? | 18:28 |
| Rinchen | we could use it to further identify bugs that needed to be addressed as part of the usability study for example | 18:28 |
| Rinchen | I would very much like to address those findings | 18:28 |
| thumper | I don't think that the sole use for a tag is to filter on them | 18:28 |
| mpt | They're listed on the wiki page | 18:29 |
| thumper | I look at the tags of a bug without filtering on them | 18:29 |
| mpt | and I think one or two of them have been fixed | 18:29 |
| mpt | I remind people of them in each State of Launchpad Usability report, but I'm not sure a tag would help | 18:29 |
| Rinchen | just my personal preference. I'm not attached to it either way | 18:29 |
| Rinchen | So thumper, matsubara, flacoste - you expressed concern retiring UI | 18:30 |
| thumper | if we are going to retire ui, I'd like a tag to refer to UI only bugs | 18:30 |
| Rinchen | or we could simply amend the UI tag's description | 18:30 |
| kiko | -1 on retiring, based on this discussion, and +1 for confusing-ui | 18:30 |
| thumper | as in bugs that can be fixed with browser/template code only | 18:30 |
| kiko | +1 for amending the description of the ui | 18:31 |
| mpt | thumper, what counts as "UI only"? Template only? Template + browser code only? Template + browser + interface code only? | 18:31 |
| flacoste | template+browser | 18:31 |
| thumper | mpt: that's the discression of the bug triager | 18:31 |
| Rinchen | flacoste, thumper, matsubara - looking for +1 or -1 on the proposals from you | 18:32 |
| flacoste | flacoste: like kiko said | 18:32 |
| flacoste | Rinchen: ^^^ | 18:32 |
| thumper | -1 on retiring ui, +1 on ammending description of it | 18:32 |
| matsubara | Rinchen: <matsubara> yeah, -1 on that unless we can come up with other tags to replace it | 18:32 |
| thumper | +1 on confusing-ui | 18:32 |
| Rinchen | ok, then | 18:32 |
| thumper | mpt: less than half our team bugs are confusing-ui | 18:33 |
| Rinchen | [AGREED] will not retire the UI tag but amend it's description | 18:33 |
| MootBot | AGREED received: will not retire the UI tag but amend it's description | 18:33 |
| Rinchen | [AGREED] create a new tag called confusing-ui to take the place of the original intent of the UI tag | 18:33 |
| MootBot | AGREED received: create a new tag called confusing-ui to take the place of the original intent of the UI tag | 18:33 |
| Rinchen | mpt, would you be so kind as to make those changes to the bug triage wiki page? | 18:33 |
| mpt | What should the new definition of "ui" be? | 18:34 |
| kiko | bugs with an ugly face | 18:34 |
| mpt | ok | 18:34 |
| Rinchen | mpt, be creative. | 18:35 |
| Rinchen | thank you mpt | 18:35 |

| Rinchen | kiko, what's the story with the librarian leak? | 18:36 |
| Rinchen | kiko, I know you were looking into that with spiv | 18:36 |
| kiko | Rinchen, we are stumped. mthaddon patched the librarian and re-ran it and no change. :-( | 18:37 |
| Rinchen | fooey | 18:37 |
| mpt | wiki updated. | 18:37 |
| kiko | Rinchen, I don't have the cycles to chase this myself but can help somebody who can | 18:37 |
| Rinchen | wonder if we can setup an instance locally and valgrind it | 18:37 |
| kiko | i.e. flacoste who loves libby | 18:37 |
| kiko | it's not a valgrind issue | 18:37 |
| kiko | that's a crazy suggestion | 18:37 |
| Rinchen | I'm a crazy guy :-) | 18:37 |

| kiko | (Rinchen, do we need to remind people that we are in "ubuntu freeze"?) | 18:43 |
| Rinchen | Hi! Is anyone blocked on an RT or have any that are becoming urgent? I'm tracking 1 overdue for Julian, 1 overdue for me, 1 for IS (apache), and 1 for kiko. The IS one is the only one making any progress. | 18:43 |
| kiko | the security apache thingy is important | 18:44 |
| bigjools | kiko asked me to mention the one for mail capture on dogfood | 18:44 |
| Rinchen | that's the one I have :-) | 18:44 |
| bigjools | cool | 18:45 |
| Rinchen | So I apologize that I've not been able to move these others along. | 18:45 |
| Rinchen | Scheduling with IS has been difficult lately | 18:45 |
| kiko | it's release month, understandable | 18:45 |
| Rinchen | as always, lots of stuff on their plate | 18:45 |
| Rinchen | indeed | 18:45 |
| Rinchen | kiko, I wasn't going to remind folks about stable... I think everyone knows. It doesn't seem to make much difference anyway since you, me, and Steve approve cherries | 18:46 |

| kiko | Rinchen, it's not just cherry-picks | 18:46 |
| kiko | it's also edge landings. | 18:47 |
| salgado | if any of the branches you're working on right now depends on any library which is not part of the launchpad-dependencies package, come talk to me ASAP. | 18:47 |
| kiko | be specially careful about what you land | 18:47 |

| Rinchen | [TOPIC] A top user-affecting issue (mrevell) | 18:49 |
| MootBot | New Topic: A top user-affecting issue (mrevell) | 18:49 |
| mrevell | This week's issue is pertinent to a week in which we're making a release :) | 18:49 |
| mrevell | Throughout the month, we add new/changed functionality to Edge but we don't announce what the changes are. This prompted a question on launchpad-users a couple of days ago. | 18:49 |
| mrevell | Edge is clearly marked as a beta environment. However, I wonder if: | 18:49 |
| mrevell | a) there's an easy way (i.e. largely automated) to show beta testers what's changed over night on Edge | 18:50 |
| mrevell | b) if that's something we would want to put time into, as we clearly mark Edge as beta and people know that it's a rapidly changing environment. | 18:50 |
| mrevell | Cheers. | 18:50 |
| intellectronica | perhaps we could have an edge blog, where we add a couple of words for every new feature that makes it there? | 18:50 |
| kiko | well | 18:50 |
| kiko | the way I'd do that is somehow do a daily transport of commits to news | 18:51 |
| barry | mrevell: what about a feed of the subjects of pqm landings that don't have !log? | 18:51 |
| Rinchen | we could strip [!log] from arch commits at the moment and just update that daily | 18:51 |
| kiko | which could then be used as the user-visible part of our release notes later, so it's not waster work. | 18:51 |
| kiko | Rinchen, barry: not really user-consumable | 18:51 |
| stub | How many people would genuinely read more information about LP developments? | 18:51 |
| mrevell | kiko: Yeah, so distribute the release notes work throughout the cycle. | 18:51 |
| kiko | right | 18:51 |
| kiko | do it daily -- it's only like 1-5 entries a day anyway | 18:52 |
| Rinchen | mrevell, we could have a separate blog category about it | 18:52 |
| Rinchen | mrevell, something that doesn't post to the Planet | 18:52 |
| mrevell | Yeah. My only concern is vacation time, but I think we can cover that int he usual ways | 18:52 |
| barry | kiko: yeah, we'd have to be more careful about that | 18:52 |
| kiko | mrevell, I can cover for you if you like. I sometimes know how to write. | 18:52 |
| mrevell | Rinchen: Hmm, that might be trickier but I'm sure we could do it. | 18:52 |
| mrevell | kiko: Heh :) You certainly do. | 18:52 |
| Rinchen | kiko, it's a lot of work to do it by hand | 18:52 |
| kiko | Rinchen, it's the same work as mrevell puts into the announcement? | 18:53 |
| kiko | except spread out | 18:53 |
| Rinchen | yeah, the scripts don't take long to run | 18:53 |
| Rinchen | but mrevell has other commitments on week 2 | 18:53 |
| Rinchen | mrevell, have we proposed this on -users or a users meeting? | 18:53 |
| Rinchen | I agree it's a good thing to do but I'd rather consider it by hand after we dogfood | 18:54 |
| mrevell | Rinchen: No, not yet. I wanted to float the idea here first | 18:54 |
| Rinchen | er | 18:54 |
| Rinchen | I'd rather not consider doing it mostly by hand | 18:54 |
| Rinchen | and wait until we dogfood which is coming | 18:54 |
| mrevell | Cool, let's discuss it further another time. | 18:54 |
| * Rinchen looks at thumper | 18:54 | |
| kiko | dogfood? | 18:54 |
| kiko | huh? | 18:54 |
| Rinchen | kiko, RF on LP | 18:54 |
| kiko | Rinchen, the commit messages will not be user-consumable, so that's irrelevant | 18:54 |
| kiko | there needs to be manual work done | 18:55 |
| kiko | and we already do the manual work anyway when producing the monthly report | 18:55 |
| Rinchen | yes, that's true | 18:55 |
| thumper | Rinchen: it won't make any difference to the uses as the brance will be private | 18:55 |
| kiko | now | 18:55 |
| thumper | Rinchen: until we release the source anyway | 18:55 |
| kiko | it doesn't have to be matt r. that does it | 18:55 |
| kiko | but that would involve team leads wanting to take that job on | 18:55 |
| * thumper has typo spelling mistakes when tired | 18:55 | |
| * flacoste makes long-convulated sentences. | 18:56 | |
| Rinchen | hmm, ok. mrevell, please gauge the community's interest in this. | 18:56 |
| flacoste | with lots of made-up words! | 18:56 |
| mrevell | Rinchen: Will do. | 18:56 |
| stub | I think it would be good if we could determine who our audience is for these missives. | 18:56 |
| Rinchen | if there is enough then I'll move forward with this with you | 18:56 |
| SteveA | there is a benefit to us | 18:56 |
| SteveA | which is, beta testers can be directed at things that have changed | 18:56 |
| SteveA | to check them out, if they feel minded to do so | 18:57 |
| Rinchen | and this then draws attention to new items which would get good qa | 18:57 |
| thumper | mrevell: what about the announcements on the launchpad product for this? | 18:57 |
| kiko | yeah, I think the same as SteveA | 18:57 |
| Rinchen | thumper, I was thinking about that too as an avenue | 18:57 |
| mrevell | thumper: Yeah, that's a good idea. So long as it was clearly marked as affecting edge | 18:58 |
| Rinchen | I can digest a weekly effort but I'm having a difficult time with a daily one by hand given the large amount of workload mrevell has. | 18:58 |
| Rinchen | anyway, I'm calling time and moving on | 18:58 |

| Rinchen | thanks | 18:59 |
| mrevell | Thanks again to people who've provided feedback on docs posted to the list. | 18:59 |

| Rinchen | [TOPIC] What environments use zopeless mode and require send_email: true (sinzui) | 18:59 |
| MootBot | New Topic: What environments use zopeless mode and require send_email: true (sinzui) | 18:59 |
| * thumper doesn't like the term zopeless | 18:59 | |
| kiko | agreed | 18:59 |
| kiko | but anyway | 19:00 |
| thumper | bazaar-staging needs to send email | 19:00 |
| sinzui | My question might be better stated is that I think we have cargo-culted the value to True in many places. | 19:00 |
| kiko | curtis and I yesterday put a best effort into figuring out what instances and processes needed email disabled | 19:00 |
| sinzui | thumper: noted | 19:00 |
| kiko | meaning that zopeless processes using that config should be stopped from sending email | 19:00 |
| SteveA | can we not just log if something sends email | 19:01 |
| kiko | sinzui, remind us what we decided to go with? | 19:01 |
| SteveA | then inspect the logs | 19:01 |
| SteveA | st jude style | 19:01 |
| kiko | SteveA, no clue, but there's no time for that | 19:01 |
| kiko | it could have been done weeks ago, but not 5h before the rollout! | 19:01 |
| sinzui | We have enabled send_email to true in all environments (per the old confs) except for default, testrunner, bazaar-staging, and ... | 19:01 |
| stub | process-email should be it on forster, shouldn't it? | 19:02 |
| sinzui | dogfood | 19:02 |
| kiko | default meaning devel for clueless people like me. testrunner inherits it. | 19:02 |
| stub | Maybe the probers to annoy mirror owners? | 19:02 |
| kiko | bazaar-staging and dogfood had it disabled as well, though there is an argument that we should instead configure those boxes to redirect smtp traffic. | 19:02 |
| sinzui | kiko: right. there is nothing default about default. | 19:02 |
| kiko | :) | 19:03 |
| Rinchen | thumper, shouldn't bazaar-staging go to the staging mailbox? | 19:03 |
| kiko | Rinchen, it's not the same server. | 19:03 |
| thumper | Rinchen: yes, probably | 19:03 |
| stub | oh - rosetta imports and maybe exports spam users | 19:03 |
| kiko | thumper, if you agree, please file an RT ticket and give the number to Rinchen | 19:03 |
| thumper | can it? | 19:03 |
| kiko | so, if you know of a place where we should NOT send email from zopeless scripts please warn us. | 19:03 |
| flacoste | thumper: if bazaar-staging is running on staging, it already does | 19:04 |
| sinzui | What environment is rosseta imports? | 19:04 |
| kiko | flacoste, it doesn't. | 19:04 |
| kiko | stub, well, where would those be at risk? | 19:04 |
| kiko | what I mean is, on what instance would rosetta imports or the mirror prober run where we would /not/ want to send out email? | 19:04 |
| flacoste | then bazaar-staging should have send_email False for now | 19:04 |
| stub | sinzui: zopeless scripts run from cron | 19:04 |
| kiko | staging, yes, but staging has an auto-smtp-redirect. | 19:04 |
| kiko | flacoste, that's the way it is. | 19:04 |
| kiko | stub, see my statement above. | 19:05 |
| stub | kiko: I think there is already a command line option to the mirror prober to send out or not send out email | 19:05 |
| flacoste | kiko: i know, but thumper asked sinzui to change that | 19:05 |
| sinzui | stub: but what conf file? if it is run on forester, I assume production, | 19:05 |
| kiko | flacoste, I think he didn't -- he just didn't understand it was staging at that point :) | 19:05 |
| stub | kiko: I can't think of any cases where we need to disable rosettas email without needing to disable the imports entirely | 19:05 |
| stub | sinzui: Yes (Tom?) | 19:05 |
| kiko | stub, agreed -- except on staging, during testing, where as I said, it's irrelevant. | 19:06 |
| thumper | I kind of assumed that the email sent from bazaar-staging would go to the staging email box | 19:06 |
| kiko | thumper, it's not on the same server | 19:06 |
| thumper | if it takes a while to set that up, then we should set it to False for now | 19:06 |
| kiko | so it won't | 19:06 |
| kiko | right | 19:06 |
| kiko | anyone else? | 19:06 |
| thumper | kiko: yeah, but I didn't know that it wouldn't work | 19:06 |
| kiko | thumper, well, there's no magic -- special smtp config needs to be done. :) | 19:06 |
| * flacoste sees that notifications from bazaar-staging were tested properly... | 19:06 | |
| Rinchen | [TOPIC] LaunchpadValidationError and HTML escaping (intellectronica, kiko) | 19:07 |
| MootBot | New Topic: LaunchpadValidationError and HTML escaping (intellectronica, kiko) | 19:07 |
| kiko | sinzui, looks good to me -- and I replied to your email about the key discrepancies, pointing out ones I found suspicious. nothing there is critical IMO. | 19:07 |
| kiko | okay | 19:07 |
| sinzui | kiko: thanks. I'll loook at my mail | 19:07 |
| kiko | what do people think about doing escape of LVE strings to avoid callsites needing to remember to do it? | 19:08 |
| kiko | we could do something similar to what mars did | 19:08 |
| kiko | for our web notifs | 19:08 |
| kiko | i.e. supply structured where desired, otherwise, escape | 19:08 |
| kiko | what think you? | 19:08 |
| stub | I liked that pattern | 19:08 |
| flacoste | +1 | 19:08 |
| intellectronica | that, of course, means not escaping when the input is wrapped in structured, and going over all existing places and converting them, since some of them feed HTML in | 19:08 |
| barry | +1, with structured | 19:08 |
| intellectronica | +1 | 19:09 |
| kiko | I'm +1 too | 19:09 |
| kiko | okay thanks | 19:09 |
| kiko | please keep in mind this is currently an issue | 19:09 |
| SteveA | I don't care about seeing some spurious < and > in the HTML for a while | 19:09 |
| kiko | right | 19:09 |
| SteveA | that's a small usability problem we can progressively fix | 19:09 |
| intellectronica | and many should be caught by tests anyway | 19:09 |
| kiko | flacoste, mars: can you guys file a bug? | 19:09 |
| SteveA | so, add escaping now :) | 19:09 |
| kiko | yeah, totally | 19:09 |
| SteveA | thanks for bringing this up | 19:09 |
| mars | kiko, sure | 19:10 |
| kiko | thanks | 19:10 |
