Build, Release, QA ------------------ *Oct 23 Checkpoint* Bear spins: http://lists.osafoundation.org/pipermail/chandler-dev/2006-October/007148.html Dan tests: http://lists.osafoundation.org/pipermail/chandler-dev/2006-October/007151.html
*Alpha4 branch, end game* Heikki gave the stats: 7 blockers and 25 bugs total. Branch planned for Thursday Oct 26, at which point all non-blockers were punted. To propose a bug as a blocker, use the "blocking0.7?" flag. http://lists.osafoundation.org/pipermail/chandler-dev/2006-October/007153.html Heikki explained that we'll build the first release candidate for testing when we hit zero blocker bugs. It will take QA 2 days to test the RC. If tests don't pass, we rinse/repeat until we have a good build. Help testing the RC is appreciated. Heikki pointed out that it was time to get the website changes ready. http://lists.osafoundation.org/pipermail/chandler-dev/2006-October/007156.html Pieter sent out the punch-list for non-dev docs (the website). He asked for any additions. https://bugzilla.osafoundation.org/showdependencytree.cgi?id=6824 http://lists.osafoundation.org/pipermail/chandler-dev/2006-October/007158.html Bear created the branch on Oct 26 as planned. He noted that the branch doesn't have a tinderbox, so all fixes must go through unit and functional tests before committing. Heikki noted that we'll do checkpoints on the branch. Bear gave instructions for getting the branch in the message. http://lists.osafoundation.org/pipermail/chandler-dev/2006-October/007163.html *Notify Bear of changes to external* Bear requested these steps for any changes to an external project: (1) Send Bear an email or IRC message explaining the change and the problem it fixes. (2) File a bug with a patch if you don't own the project, so Bear can test the change. http://lists.osafoundation.org/pipermail/chandler-dev/2006-October/007165.html *Edgy upgrade* Bear ran into snags upgrading Ubuntu (Dapper to Edgy). Details about fixes in the messages. http://lists.osafoundation.org/pipermail/chandler-dev/2006-October/007167.html http://lists.osafoundation.org/pipermail/chandler-dev/2006-October/007169.html http://lists.osafoundation.org/pipermail/chandler-dev/2006-October/007170.html *SVN tip* Bryan had a tip for people using two SVN clients on your local machine (say, TortoiseSVN and Cygwin). SVN 1.4 and 1.3 clients aren't really compatible, so you'll want to update clients together. http://lists.osafoundation.org/pipermail/chandler-dev/2006-October/007147.html *Tinderbox status icon for Firefox 2 updated* http://lists.osafoundation.org/pipermail/chandler-dev/2006-October/007173.html Dev projects ------------ *EIM subtypes* Morgen asked PJE for an example motivating subtypes. PJE replied that you might want to create a type similar to an existing type, differing in size, type URI, or how it handled conversions. http://lists.osafoundation.org/pipermail/chandler-dev/2006-October/007152.html Meetings, Announcements ----------------------- Apps meeting: http://wiki.osafoundation.org/bin/view/Journal/AppsMeeting20061025 *Sharing meeting* Ted sent notes for a kickoff meeting on sharing (both Cosmo and Chandler folks in attendance). http://wiki.osafoundation.org/bin/view/Journal/TedLeung20061026 New Apple MacBooks out: http://www.apple.com/pr/library/2006/oct/24macbookpro.html _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Open Source Applications Foundation "chandler-dev" mailing list http://lists.osafoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/chandler-dev
