abentleythumper: It looks like you're showing the start time and estimated start time for binary builds, even though the times for sourcepackagerecipe builds are completion times.  Was this intentional?21:26
thumperno... I don't think so21:27
abentleySorry, what do you mean?  "I don't think it was intentional"?  "I don't think I'm showing the start time"?  "I don't think the times for sourcepackagerecipe builds are completion times"?21:29
thumperabentley: :)21:29
thumperabentley: I wasn't intentionally showing different things21:30
thumperI copied the binary build time stuff from their build-index page21:30
thumperI hadn't realised that our times were completed times21:30
abentleythumper: It wouldn't hurt to change the title of that column from "Time" to "completion time" or something.21:30
thumperperhaps we should change ours to be start time too?21:30
abentleythumper: I figure that you don't really care when a build will start, you care when it will be done.21:31
thumperabentley: well... we are showing the status...21:32
abentleySure, but I don't get the relevance.21:32
thumperI'd rather see "started 3 minutes ago" than "in 5 minutes"21:32
thumperif you read the status then the time we see things like:21:32
* thumper skips examples21:33
thumperperhaps we should have a build ETA as well21:33
thumperdo we know that?21:33
abentleythumper: Sure.  That's what we show for source package recipe builds.21:33
thumperif we can say "started 5 minutes ago (ETA 6 minutes)21:34
thumperor something21:34
abentleythumper: And then when it completes we go back to showing "started 11 minutes ago"?21:34
thumperno...21:34
thumperwhen it's complete we show the finished time21:35
abentleythumper: If we're going to show a start and end time all the time, why not just have two columns?21:35
thumperwe only show "started 11 minutes ago" when it is building21:35
thumperwe only care about both times when it is actually building21:35
thumperbefore it is building we mostly care about when it will start21:35
abentleythumper: But after 6 minutes, it should be finished building.21:36
thumperwhen it's done we care about when it finished21:36
thumperabentley: sure21:36
abentleyBefore it is building I mostly care about when it will finish.21:36
abentleyWhile it is building I mostly care about when it will finish.21:36
thumperand here is part of the problem21:36
thumperthe expectation that is shown is when the recipe will be finished21:36
thumpernot the binary build21:36
thumperso showing an expected completed time (according to some) should include the binary times21:37
thumperah...21:37
thumperthe build estimates come from past history?21:38
abentleythumper: Sure.21:38
abentleythumper: On the first build, we guess 10 minutes.21:38
thumperso... what you are saying is we should show ETA to build completion for the binary buids21:38
abentleythumper: Yes, I think we should.21:39
thumperok21:39
abentleythumper: I'm okay with the idea of adding another column for the estimated (or actual) start time.21:39
abentleythumper: I would rather not put both times into the same column, like "started 5 minutes ago (ETA 6 minutes)"21:40
thumperhmm...21:41
thumperI'll poke it and see how it looks21:42
abentleythumper: okay.21:42
abentleythumper: Whatever we settle on, I want the times in that column to consistently refer to either the start or the finish.21:43
* thumper nods21:43

abentleythumper: It looks like you're also deliberately changing sourcepackagerecipe build date display.  I didn't notice this before.21:54
abentleythumper: I wanted to reduce the amount of status-based switching that goes on in these TAL templates, but your changes introduce that.21:55
thumperyeah...21:55
thumperI changed it after messing with the binary buids21:55
abentleythumper: I'm still pleased  with the way I did it, and I'd rather we did binary builds that way.21:56
abentleythumper: The less logic in the TAL, the better.21:59
