Hi all,
I am writing every week a short summary, what is going on in my tasks.
Last week i wrote 2 mails to the list which were topic specific.
This week i dont manage to do this, it seems i loose fokus a bit. So
maybe it makes more sense to write a weekly checkin.
1) Bazel experiment
OpenOffice is still crashing. I figured that the main reason are the ini
files. Originaly we build them in scp2, with bash scripts and generators.
I thought scp2 is building the installer, and did not want to have a
packaged object before i know that it also runs. That is why i wrote
that I changed the progress.
Turns out that our generators are not easy to predict by AI, and it
produced AI Slop ini files, Which kept me busy.
I migrated now scp2 and i hope that it is a step forward. The migration
was not that streight forward. I have now more AI wired decisions. First
we had a lot of bash, now i moved all bash to perl and tried to reuse
existing perl scripts from solenv.
Now i am curious if the direction is better. But once i have a working
version i need to review the complete build. There are multiple points
now that work, but are not ideal. The Progress slows now the closer I
get to the milestone.
2) extension Website
not much progress to report. I am currently moving the icon set. but
overall time for AOO was littlle not so murch progress.
3) Pootle
Drew pinged me on infra translation ticket, what the situation is for
the machine.
I claimed i put the migration backwards on priority due to other topics.
We need more disk space on oppenoffice-ec2-va, because Pootle and Open
grok need a lot of space. And the configuration is one disk.
In order to fullfil the transformation ticket, i thought about quickly "
Copy everything over. I am not sure if this is overall the right move.
moving to weblate is the move. But a migration over machines and
services has more risk that it needs more time.
I dont think i can do 3 topics in parallel. I will have to push back the
Extension for now, in favour of the translation migration.
Lets see. I try to work next week on the bazel experiment and on pootle.
All the best
Peter.
