Re: [Amsn-devel] Release Sep 18th

Hi,
as some of you already know, Youness will be busy for one month maybe a 
little more...
For me, I will be away from Internet (or almost away) from tomorrow 
afternoon and up to an unknown date (due to troubles with my new 
location...) so I don't think it's the good time to release now...
We should wait for my situation to settle (it has been said that in one 
month max all will be good) before releasing...
Sorry but that's life aleas...
Phil
P.S. Be quiet when I won't be here to monitor all you do/write ;)

Re: [Amsn-devel] Release Sep 18th

2007-09-13 Thread Harry Vennik
Hi,

Maybe it was the plan already, but I didn't read it here, so I just  
post it... I think it would be a good thing to create the release  
from trunk rather than the current 0_97 branch. although many changes  
in trunk were merged into the branch, I think trunk is probably more  
stable at the moment.

Regards,

Harry

 Or do we release the 0.96 branch as it is right now, because languages

Exactly, and after all it's not a final release. Just my 2 cents

 1) now we have to update the version in the amsn file.. what should it
 become? More generally, what will this release be?
 0.96rc1 followed by rc2, then rc..., then 0.96
 or 0.96 followed by 0.96.1, etc
 i would say the second, because if we don't have critical bugs, ...

I agree, I think the second, because that is what we have always done
before.

 2) are all binaries updated?

Why not?

 3) do we create a tag for this release in svn? (A tag and a branch are
 the same in svn, technically) So does it have any benefits to create a
 tag, when we already have a 0.96 branch, which we can check out by
 revision number, if bugfixes later are done in this branch.

Make a tag on the main branch? That is pointless because that isnt the 0.96,
and we arent going to be integrating changes (accept for bugfixes if we plan
to release a 0.96.1). So I think we don't need to tag it.

Re: [Amsn-devel] release

2006-06-15 Thread Jonne Zutt

Shouldn't we make a tag of branches/0_96 now (called tags/0_96_1) ?
I think so, because if we commit to 0_96 after the release, we cannot
know what exactly was 0.96.1 in the repository anymore.
And I think that is what Sander meant.
And, iirc, it doesn't consume much repository space, as it is stored
quite clever.

After reviewing and committing changes between the branch and trunk,
the diff between branch and trunk is almost empty now.

Why did we create the branches/0_96 in the first place? Was the idea,
stop implementing new features so we can release? (that would be good I
think) Or am I missing something?

Re: [Amsn-devel] release

2006-06-15 Thread Youness Alaoui
what is wrong with you ? why have a 'poll' on wether we should create a  
tag or not
First, we MUST create a tag, it's 100% normal, it's the best way to keep  
track of what we are doing.. imagine in 1 year or 2, we'd have made so  
many changes to SVN, so many new branches, so many backports of bugs to  
older branches, etc... then when we want to get the rc2 for example, we  
won't be able to do it ? everyone works with branches and tags, and that's  
how it is!
you are saying that it's pointless, now, how about, in 3 years, someone  
says he has a huge bug in 0.96, but it's not appearing in 0.96 rc2, and it  
was something specific to his pc, noone else on earth could have that  
bug... but in 0.96 he also had a bugfix for something else, so he wants us  
to break the bugfix which creates his bug, and to port again the bugfix  
that he wants back into the rc2 version... best way is to get rc2, and  
patch it... now, let me think.. humm. was 0.96rc2 revision 6891 or  
6981... damn, if only, back then, 3 years ago, they decided to create a  
tag... :( 
you know what, why don't YOU give me a GOOD reason for NOT creating a  
tag???
don't forget how SVN works, a whole copy of the repo, a tag or a branch or  
whatever takes NO space in the repo, so we don't care about the space...

p.s.: every company that releases software creates a tag/label for every  
build they make, even if it's 100 builds... take a look at :  
http://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/mediawiki/ to see how branches and tags  
should be used...

Next time, we'll make it the right way, we will branch for specific  
features (example, clgui branch, or amsncore branch) for every big feature  
we want to implement, instead of branching the next production (0.96)  
branch.. so the trunk/ is the development.. this means that, we would work  
on the trunk/ for everything, if we want to modify something huge, we  
creater a branch, we WON'T need to backport our changes from the trunk/ to  
that branch, what we'll do, is once that feature is done and complete,  
etc... we'll tell SVN to merge the two branches together, so that new  
developed feature gets integrated into the trunk/ automatically. Once we  
RELEASE, we create a branch for that release, and we'll do commits in that  
branch ONLY if we need to backport a fix for a custom build or for a new  
'bugfix' version (for a critical bug for example)..
example, the proxy thing, a huge problem, we had to release 0.96 because  
of that, if we used what I just described (the svn philosophy), we would  
have taken the 0.95 branch, applies the proxy fix on it, modifies the SF  
mirror for downloading tls, and released 0.95.1 with only these two  
fixes... without the need to force a release of 0.96
anyways.. gtg

 I agree, I think the second, because that is what we have always done

I don't... an RC, is a release candidate, from the very start, we had an  
RC in mind, we were 'going to release with known bugs'.. we can't do that  
on an official release.. so this IS an RC, not a release... I do accept  
the 0.96, 0.96.1, etc... numbering, the bugfixes thing, etc... but not for  
this release... this is an RC, and should not be considered anything else.
So, we release this as 0.96.RC1 or 0.96RC1,  whatever you want... the  
autoupdater should consider it as 0.96b.. which means  0.95 and  0.96 ..  
right ? do tests if you want.
once we get the RC1 and maybe other RCs out of the way, we can release  
0.96, then if you want and if needed, 0.96.1 and 0.96.2, etc...

if you don't want to go through the 'RC' process, then you should have  
said so a few weeks ago, or months ago, so we would have fixed those huge  
critical issues we have now... if everyone wants it the way you said, then  
the release will have to postponed, in order for us to teak our brains  
into thinking damn, it's a production release, we must get all the bugs  
out, before... it's not an RC..., then release...

 2) are all binaries updated?

 Why not?


we should still check, we should recompile, just in case.. or use svn to  
see the revision number of the binaries against the rev number of each of  
the sources...

  0.96rc1 followed by rc2, then rc..., then 0.96
  or 0.96 followed by 0.96.1, etc
  i would say the second, because if we don't have critical bugs, ...
 
  I agree, I think the second, because that is what we have always done
  before.

 I don't... an RC, is a release candidate, from the very start, we had an
 RC in mind, we were 'going to release with known bugs'.. we can't do that
 on an official release.. so this IS an RC, not a release... I do accept
 the 0.96, 0.96.1, etc... numbering, the bugfixes thing, etc... but not for
 this release... this is an RC, and should not be considered anything else.
 So, we release this as 0.96.RC1 or 0.96RC1,  whatever you want... the
 autoupdater should consider it as 0.96b.. which means  0.95 and  0.96 ..
 right ? do tests if you want.
 once we get the RC1 and maybe other RCs out of the way, we can release
 0.96, then if you want and if needed, 0.96.1 and 0.96.2, etc...

 if you don't want to go through the 'RC' process, then you should have
 said so a few weeks ago, or months ago, so we would have fixed those huge
 critical issues we have now... if everyone wants it the way you said, then
 the release will have to postponed, in order for us to teak our brains
 into thinking damn, it's a production release, we must get all the bugs
 out, before... it's not an RC..., then release...

  2) are all binaries updated?
 
  Why not?

 we should still check, we should recompile, just in case.. or use svn to
 see the revision number of the binaries against the rev number of each of
 the sources...

  3) do we create a tag for this release in svn? (A tag and a branch are
  the same in svn, technically) So does it have any benefits to create a
  tag, when we already have a 0.96 branch, which we can check out by
  revision number, if bugfixes later are done in this branch.
 
  Make a tag on the main branch? That is pointless because that isnt the
  0.96,
  and we arent going to be integrating changes (accept for bugfixes if we
  plan
  to release a 0.96.1). So I think we don't need to tag it.

Technically, they are the same.
It is possible, though not normal, to commit to a tag.

quote
isn't this tag-creation procedure the same procedure we used to create a
branch? Yes, in fact, it is. In Subversion, there's no difference
between a tag and a branch. Both are just ordinary directories that are
created by copying. Just as with branches, the only reason a copied
directory is a “tag” is because humans have decided to treat it that
way: as long as nobody ever commits to the directory, it forever remains
a snapshot. If people start committing to it, it becomes a branch.

can everyone PLEASE read the svn book... especially the chapter on the  
branching...
I've just read part of it, but it's so easy to read, really well written,  
it's nice and easy to understand. It also allows us to learn more.. like  
the 'svn merge', or the 'svn blame' commands...
anyways...

cool! :)
btw, you're not agreeing with me, you're agreeing with SVN philosophy and  
with O'Reilly's book :D
about your idea you PMed me, releasing a 0.95.90 version as the RC...
yeah... might work... but would be too confusing for the users... I  
suggest to keep it 0.96RC1 but maybe have a
set ::version 0.96RC1
set ::rc_version 0.95.90

in autoupdate {
set version $::version
if [info exists ::rc_version] set version $::rc_version
..
}

so, one internal rc version for the autoupdater only, completly  
transparent to the user...
makes it easier for all of us.. as I said, the software should work it  
out, not the user try not to get confused...

what do you think ?

 set ::version 0.96RC1
 set ::rc_version 0.95.90

 in autoupdate {
 set version $::version
 if [info exists ::rc_version] set version $::rc_version
 ..
 }

 so, one internal rc version for the autoupdater only, completly
 transparent to the user...
 makes it easier for all of us.. as I said, the software should work it
 out, not the user try not to get confused...

 what do you think ?

that's what I thought too, let the autoupdater understand that 0.96RC1
 0.96 somehow. But this needs someone to code it :)

5) Send a mail to language translators so that they'll update the
languages files.
For 0.95, a mail was sent.
Or do we release the 0.96 branch as it is right now, because languages
are easily updated, so it's that much useful.

Yes, you're right.. but the translations could come in with the 0.96  
release, it's not that needed for the RC1.. but we'll have to assume we  
won't add any new keys in between, which should be the case since we'll  
only fix bugs between RCs, not add new stuff...

Re: [Amsn-devel] release

2006-06-15 Thread Vivia Nikolaidou
I spoke to Alvaro on PM, but he had to run, so I'm writing here instead of him:

 1) now we have to update the version in the amsn file.. what should it
 become? More generally, what will this release be?
 0.96rc1 followed by rc2, then rc..., then 0.96
 or 0.96 followed by 0.96.1, etc
 i would say the second, because if we don't have critical bugs, we don't
 want to make another release that is essentially the same, and it is
 weird in my opinion to have 0.96rc2 followed by a 0.97 release.
 to be short with rc then you have to make as much rc's until there are
 no more bugs, and then make another release that is only a namechange
 from rc to normal. With the .bugfix releases none of these problems
 exist, and computers will have an easier time to understand what version
 is newer.

[16:22:27] Álvaro (#) better
[16:22:30] Álvaro (#) 0.95.99
[16:22:32] Álvaro (#) then 0.95.999
[16:22:40] Álvaro (#) that way it doesn't look like 0.96 yet
[16:22:43] Álvaro (#) i mean
[16:22:45] Álvaro (#) if it's 0.96.1
[16:22:52] Álvaro (#) people won't see it as a rc

 3) do we create a tag for this release in svn? (A tag and a branch are
 the same in svn, technically) So does it have any benefits to create a
 tag, when we already have a 0.96 branch, which we can check out by
 revision number, if bugfixes later are done in this branch.

[16:25:31] Álvaro (#) but it's better just tag 0.96
[16:25:39] Álvaro (#) than branch 0.96+revision number xxx981984934x
[16:25:47] Álvaro (#) isn't it? :D
[16:25:52] Álvaro (#) a tag is a finished branch
[16:26:05] Álvaro (#) i think it should be tagged anyways
[16:26:13] Álvaro (#) that way you can always check the list of tags
[16:26:17] Álvaro (#) and see what versions were released

 I don't know what's the problem with the make rpm, maybe it's because I
 don't have rpm in /bin/rpm but in /usr/bin/rpm (I'm using a debian system)
 and the dpkg is probably because I'm not as root (I think so :P) so I
 don't know if you want to do something about that, like use fakeroot or
 something, because most users might want to create a .deb file without
 being root..

Re: [Amsn-devel] Release distribution...

2005-11-20 Thread Youness Alaoui

Hi,
Thanks a lot for all your work, it's really appreciated.
I have a few things to talk about, but it will be short... :
1 - good job everyone, I'm such everyone here will be proud of the 0.95  
release! :)
2 - I didn't have time yesterday, and I don't know about today (sunday)..  
but I'll see what I can do.. problem is, I don't know what to do and I  
don't know what others are doing... can we get a TODO list of what needs  
to be done for the release, with flags for what has been done, and  
initials for what is being done by who ? maybe put it in the wiki and send  
a link here.
3 - What I though of doing is to finish my work on the cam2mpeg utility  
that I want to provide with amsn.. do you all accept I spend time on this  
or do you suggest I leave it alone and use my little free time on  
something more needed ?
4 - I sent a mail a few weeks ago about how cvs should be re-arranged... a  
lot of files that are there while they shouldn't, etc... if you look at  
amsn's directory, you'll see it's around 44MB, if we clean the correct  
things (all the list I gave last time), you'll see it will take only  
6MB... once compressed it's 1.5MB ... we should fix those issues before  
releasing and we should also make sure the package contains the minimal  
thing (no source files, no mac/windows things if it's linux, no unused  
things (like pixmapbutton), etc...)


I think that's it... you see 4 points in such a small email, I'm getting  
better :P

Re: [Amsn-devel] release 0.95 NOW? was : RE: TkCximage not loaded

2005-11-17 Thread Youness Alaoui

cool,
I think it sets it up.. and I think, as Alvaro said, the opinion of the  
users is clear already... If we (devels) know that 0.95 is not complete  
and all, and we still want to release, then it means users will also want  
to release...
I'll let the poll go until the week-end and then I'll do my best to find a  
little time and help in the release... unless someone requests the poll  
goes a little longer...

Do you think anything should be done before the release ?
here's my points :
- check that 0.95.1 will be considered newer than 0.95 and 0.95.2 newer  
than 0.95.1 in the auto-update system...


Maybe I'll think about other things before we release...

I don't have time now, but probably wont have time tomorrow to write
anything so I will make it short.

I am not adding my name to these lists as I believe the options are flawed
in the understandings, it appears that the 2 options have been combined into
1. Releasing 0.95 now means we release what we have as a complete stable
release and then start working on 0.96. The second option is to release a
0.95 candidate and hold off new features until it has had a chance to be
cleaned of any minor bugs that shouldn't have to wait till 0.96. Now I think
we should release a 0.95 candidate and fix any bugs reported before starting
to work on 0.96, I also think that is what Karol wanted before Youness
explained the options and 'combined' them into 1. Whether we call the
release 0.95RC1 followed by 0.95 or 0.95 followed by 0.95.1 is irrelevant,
as long as the users know this is stable but still has some minor bugs that
we want reported so that we can release a new patched release with no extra
features.

Whatever we call it 0.95 or 0.95RC1 shouldn't matter, as long as 0.94
recognises it as a new update. We can then correct the code to recognise the
next release correctly (before releasing this 1). So what I am proposing is
new options:

* (1) I want to release 0.95 now but hold off on new features until we have
had a chance to fix any bugs that get reported (notifying users that there
may be some and we want them to report it - after checking the known issues
page..):
- Arieh

* (2) I want to release 0.95 as a stable build and start working on 0.96
immediately:

/

Then a second question for those that chose (1) above;

* (a) I want this release to be called 0.95RC1 then followed by 0.95:

* (b) I want this release to be called 0.95 then followed by 0.95.1 etc

* (c) I want this release to be called 0.95.1 then followed by 0.95.2 etc

* (d) I don't really care as long as the check for new update is
checked/fixed to work with what is chose:
-Arieh


Further comments:
Arieh - I chose (d) as it doesn't matter to me, but out of the first 3 I
would probably choose (c) if I was forced to make a choice. As long as we
ensure that users were notified on amsn main page, and maybe even on the
download page, that this release may contain some bugs but we endeavour to
release a new version with just bug fixes and no extra features as soon as
the bugs have been found and eradicated.

I don't have time now, but probably wont have time tomorrow to write
anything so I will make it short.

I am not adding my name to these lists as I believe the options are  
flawed
in the understandings, it appears that the 2 options have been combined  
into

1. Releasing 0.95 now means we release what we have as a complete stable
release and then start working on 0.96. The second option is to release a
0.95 candidate and hold off new features until it has had a chance to be

think
we should release a 0.95 candidate and fix any bugs reported before  
starting

to work on 0.96, I also think that is what Karol wanted before Youness
explained the options and 'combined' them into 1.


Ok, I guess I wasn't clear enough on both possibilities.. the first one is  
we release 0.95 now, start working on new features, bug fixes, and when we  
think that our 0.95TODO is completed and almost all bugs known were fixed,  
we release a more stable release of 0.95 (with bug fixes AND new  
features if any were added since the 0.95 release)...
The second choice is we keep it as it is now which means that we will  
continue waiting for the 0.95RC TODO to be finished (webcam assistant is  
the one I'm thinking about now...) THEN we release 0.95RC1 (it doesn't  
mean now...) then once it's out, we'll work on the pending issues only,  
until we get the whole 0.95 TODO completed without adding new features..
I'm actually asking to go into an anarchy instead of an democracy... (I  
don't want it to be a dictature either).. so these are my 2 choices... and  
I chose the anarchy... to just get it out and fix it later because I  
think we're never gonna release anything if we keep it like this...
If still uncertain, I can try and explain how the 2 options are not the  
same..




Whether we call the
release 0.95RC1 followed by 0.95 or 0.95 followed by 0.95.1 is  
irrelevant,
as long as the users know this is stable but still has some minor bugs  
that
we want reported so that we can release a new patched release with no  
extra

features.



Well, changing the build number doesn't mean it has only bug fixes, it  
means it has minor fixes... so 0.95.1 can have new features and bug fixes  
for 0.95 while 0.95RC1 means it's a release candidate, it means we're not  
yet into the 0.95 state and it means that we're only waiting for bugs to  
come in and the 0.95 release will only be bug fixes of the RC.. That's why  
I said 0.95-0.95.1 instead of 0.95RC1-0.95



Whatever we call it 0.95 or 0.95RC1 shouldn't matter, as long as 0.94
recognises it as a new update. We can then correct the code to recognise  
the
next release correctly (before releasing this 1). So what I am proposing  
is

new options:



Well, as I just said, it's not that irrelevant because of the implied  
meaning of each release, but it's not important and we don't really care  
about that, and as you said, as long as 0.94 reconizes both releases as  
newer and the next release to be out should have a fix in order to  
reconize later versions correctly..


* (1) I want to release 0.95 now but hold off on new features until we  
have
had a chance to fix any bugs that get reported (notifying users that  
there
may be some and we want them to report it - after checking the known  
issues

page..):
- Arieh

* (2) I want to release 0.95 as a stable build and start working on 0.96
immediately:

 - Youness..


The reason is because the 0.95 is not going to be released because we  
finished our TODO, it's because the development has stalled.. I think  
noone is motivated now because there is a feature freeze.. if we remove  
the feature freeze, we'll all (those who have time) get motivated again  
and we'll work on amsn and at the same time, fix those bugs that were  
pending for a year...
I answere 2, even if it says start working on 0.96.. I think it should  
be start working on the next release whether it's 0.96 with all it's  
milestones, TODO list, etc... or just next release being 0.95.1 with a few  
new features and bug fixes, or whatever.. as long as we can say to  
everybody do whatever you want now



/

Then a second question for those that chose (1) above;

* (a) I want this release to be called 0.95RC1 then followed by 0.95:

* (b) I want this release to be called 0.95 then followed by 0.95.1 etc

that the name isn't the most important the real question is : Do we out

well, the name is kind of important, but it's still a release issue...

yes, the problem is ALMOST ready.. also, it hasn't been tested enough  
yet.. and we need to leave some things for 0.96, right ? ;)
also, we're doing this in order to get 0.95 out as soon as possible.. if  
we wait for the assistant, we'll never get 0.95 out, if we wait for  
MSNP11, it's even worse... now 0.95b is stable, I don't want to add MSNP11  
and make it unstable.. it's a choice to be made and I think we should go  
with safety for the moment...


For the packaging as I already said RPM maker is ready launch make rpm

nothing more.

perfect

For Debian packaging, I think the most difficult was done with RPMs I  
need a

spec file and it needs testing...

I think it's pretty easy to create the debian dir...

 add...then say it hehe

As you mentioned in the email to me, we should move the link to the bug 
reporting to our sf site. Forwarding in TCL does not work so the database 
would have to be moved. This is not hard as all that's needed is dump the 
database and recreate it at sf.net (I'll need the password). Then just move 
the files and edit the mysql settins in the config.

Ok, here's the thing.. I think 0.95 is really great and people will like
it ALOT (even with the glitches) especially those who don't know what a
CVS is...
I suggest we skip the 0.95RC1 release, we go directly to 0.95, we  
adapt

the webcam wizard in order for it to work (I think it was already done..
who can confirm?) and we make sure the wizard is run on the first  
webcam

send.. also, make it available in the Tools menu.
We put up the new website, we change SF forum to the new forum, we make
great packages (klik, autopackage, win32, mac,  
rpm/deb/tgz/whatever-else)
and we release 0.95... we wait about a month or two, just the time  
needed

to fix all new bugs and all pending issues and we release 0.95.1
What do you think ?
I'm half half but I will on no. The 0.95 release has a lot of new  
changes and
I dunno how much they are tested. Having an release candidate can bring  
in a
wider audience, unless of course there are more cvs users than 0.94. We  
can
then spend 2-3 weeks (a set period before release) fixing reported bugs  
and

then just go straight to a stable release.



That's the thing, 0.95 is I think the most stable release we ever had  
(0.94 was also stable, but not as much as 0.95 IN MY OPINION), I mean, I  
never have any bugs, problems but I remember when I began working for amsn  
and a few years later, we would always have at least 2 bugs a week...
So I don't think it's a real issue having the current bugs as they are  
now..
Also, note one thing, if we release 0.95RC1, most people won't understand  
what RC1 means, it might seem strange and that's it.. and then, they'll  
see 0.95 is released and they won't get it as they already have 0.95 (RC1  
but they don't know what that means so they consider it as being 0.95)...  
don't forget how many n00bs use amsn every day.
Also, it will cause a problem with the auto-updated, it won't understand  
0.95 as being newer than 0.95RC1...
if we release 0.95 now and then 0.95.1 in a couple of weeks/months, then  
it's the same as 0.95RC then 0.95 ... in terms of release...
The major problem now is that we don't have the manpower to do all  
that! everyone went into hibernation! noone is active, so we can't  
keep it like that... I mean, if you look at the important 0.95 TODO list,  
how many things were fixed in it lately ? none for the last month AT  
LEAST... if we continue like this, we'll NEVER get a 0.95 release out...
The most important thing is also that the CVS version is widely used by a  
lot of people, so we could assume it has been tested enough!!!
Jerome, I've seen your forum, can you tell us how many people downloaded  
the latest 0.95 beta release ON MAC ? do you have any number ? if you  
don't have all numbers, maybe just how  many downloaded it using  
bittorrent ? I don't know if you have access to these stats... anyways.


With the webcam feature introduced in amsn CVS a lot of people wanted to  
try out cvs just in order to get the webcam working, so we have a lot of  
users trying it each day now... almost every forum questions, or tracker  
questions or mails, almost anything from the past months are about CVS...  
can you tell me when is the last time you had to answer a question about  
the 0.94 release ? I don't even remember what it looked like... and noone  
talks about it anymore..


Anyways, that's my opinion and the reasons why I wanted to push 0.95 now,  
before wasting any more time...


Thanks,

KaKaRoTo

Fain, you convinced me. I don't remember any bugs that get in the way of  
daily

usage. Also I didn't know that the RC labelling will confuse the update
notifier. I guess if any severe bugs are found we can just release a  
0.95.1

version.



yaay!! hehe, I didn't mean to convince you, I was just stating my opinion  
and my reasons.. but that's cool. The RC labeling will confuse the updated  
because I think it assumes the version number is numeric only...(and I  
think it supposes it's X.Y so maybe X.Y.Z will not work that good, but  
we'll have to test this)...
There are some sever bugs at the moment... first the pwc driver bug should  
be fixed or the webcam_settings_bug variable should be accessed through  
the advanced preferences dialog... Also disconnections causes amsn to eat  
all the memory and possibly by killed by the kernel once it takes all the  
available memory.
Btw. I think the memory used is increased when disconnected, but it still  
happens even without disconnections... one thing to look out for is the  
socket creation (proxy object if you remember...)
I think those are the major issues we currently have, I might have  
forgotten something...
