Hello Launchpadders, I had a chat with the Kernel team at Canonical the other day, and they emphasised just how much they use the Launchpad API to do their day-to-day tasks, and how it would be much better if it were: a) faster b) more reliable c) more informative when it does fail
They haven't noticed the recent speed-ups that many other folk have commented on. My guess is that will notice soon, as long as we keep pushing on our performance work. If you are interested in bug workflow, or in the Launchpad API, you should take a look at these scripts. They represent things that people need to do with Launchpad, and it's always good to know that. Also, there are probably ways to make them faster that are obvious to folk familiar with Launchpad's internals. If you make the scripts faster, you make the Kernel team more productive and thus make my network driver less likely to crash. create-release-tracker, create-stable-tracker and create-cve-tracker are all good starting points. jml ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Brad Figg <[email protected]> Date: Wed, Mar 9, 2011 at 11:26 AM Subject: Kernel team scripts ...

I do most of the LP api work for the team though some others are starting to become more involved. You are probably aware of the Arsenal scripts that Bryce developed. He and I have been working on a second generation of those and many of the LP api tools we developed are using that. bzr+ssh://bazaar.launchpad.net/~arsenal-devel/arsenal/python-launchpadlib-toolkit/ Look at create-release-tracker, create-stable-tracker, create-cve-tracker as examples.
