[08:02] <dholbach> good morning
[18:51] <nigelb> ok, the basic idea is, we get to see all bugs with patches attached that are open
[18:51] <nigelb> and the user should be able to select by package or by component (main, universe, etc)
[18:52] <nigelb> and select status of patch (unreviewed, needs-work, forwarded)
[18:52] <nigelb> and it should pop out the list of bugs and download the patch
[18:52] <qense> ok
[18:52] <nigelb> then if possible display what is the upstream for that project (#wishlist)
[18:53] <qense> that would be neat
[18:53] <nigelb> so a reviewer has an easy time doing the review
[18:53] <qense> that's what we want
[18:54] <nigelb> pulling source should also be part of this, but we dont need to go into ground control
[18:54] <nigelb> since review is a lot giving back to upstream
[18:54] <qense> You want to use the Debian watch files or the Vcs-* fields?
[18:54] <nigelb> thats where I'm doubtful
[18:55] <nigelb> when submitting a patch for upstream, it should be against their current trunk
[18:55] <nigelb> so someone is better off going to upstream
[18:55] <qense> then you don't want the watch file
[18:55] <nigelb> but sometimes a patch works against ubuntu source and we tweak it for upstream
[18:55] <nigelb> so, I'm undecided there
[18:56] <qense> The reviewer should be presented with an edit mode.
[18:56] <nigelb> so a terminal and text editor in one of the tabs
[18:56] <qense> Maybe: first try to autoapply the patch to trunk, if that doesn't work present the user with a clean trunk and ask if he or she wants to apply the patch step-by-step or wants to view the output of the previous autotry
[18:57] <qense> Inline text-editor, or embed gedit?
[18:57] <nigelb> embed gedit
[18:57] <qense> sounds like the best idea to me indeed
[18:58] <nigelb> so I'll get the wiki page and mockups over weekend and we can hack code next week?
[18:59] <qense> That's a testweek for me. :) It would not be very convenient.
[18:59] <nigelb> the week after then
[18:59] <nigelb> I need lotsa help with code.  I'm usually better at organizing people to code :D
[18:59] <qense> the test week lasts from next week Wednesday until the Tuesday after that
[18:59] <qense> but I can start helping that week
[19:00] <nigelb> ok then exactly 2 weeks from now
[19:01] <qense> ok! :)
[19:01] <qense> But I may be reachable in between. If you need some advice you can always mail me.
[19:02] <nigelb> sure, will do :)
[19:02] <nigelb> I'll be on vacation next week (I just remembered)
[19:02] <qense> Just remembered. :D
[19:04] <qense> nigelb: and remember: the reference manual is your friend!
[19:04] <nigelb> qense, I remembered that when writing apport hooks :D
