Fwd: Official GNOME subreddit

2018-12-07 Thread Britt Yazel
Hello all,

I know this is going out to everyone, so I'll keep this short and sweet. We
recently gutted and cleaned the official GNOME subreddit:

https://www.reddit.com/r/gnome/

I believe this page is probably the easiest and most transparent place for
us to interact with the community, as it offers a low barrier to entry and
less-officialness than either mailing lists, IRC, or GitLab. This subreddit
is a good place to make announcements, bounce ideas, get trolled, have open
discussions, the works.

With that said, we have implemented special badges called "flairs" that we
can assign to you if you so choose that will set you apart from the rest of
the community. If you would like a flair added to your account 1) you need
to be subscribed, and 2) you need to contact a moderator. Right now your
choices are "GNOME Foundation", "GNOME Developer", "GNOME Contributor", or
"GNOME Designer". We can make more if we need.

I hope you guys take a moment to look at this subreddit and perhaps
consider using it as part of your information dissemination strategy. The
more of us that use it regularly, the better it is overall.

Cheers and happy holidays,

 -Britt Yazel

Re: Annual Gitlab Statistics, anyone?

2018-12-07 Thread Jose Manrique Lopez de la Fuente via desktop-devel-list
Hello everybody!

I've seen Andre email talking about GitLab stats, and I was thinking about
setting up a GrimoireLab instance [1] to check some basic GNOME community
metrics, because it has added support for GitLab analytics recently, and I
love both projects/communities (GNOME and GrimoireLab), so it's a perfect
match to test its capabilities.

My idea is to follow this recipe:
https://gitlab.com/Bitergia/lab/analytics-demo

If anyone is willing to help, basically the first step is to build a
projects.json file to list all the projects and repositories to track. And
a place to run the machinery would help. Otherwise, I would use some
Bitergia resources to run it.

What do you think?

Best regards,

First problems I see:




There has not yet been a GitLab migration, so bugs and unreviewed 
patches are still on Bugzilla. First responsibility of new maintainers 
is to review unreviewed patches. But there's no way to list them. To 
get to the patch list, or just to view all the open bugs, you need to 
visit 
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/page.cgi?id=browse.html=gnome-weather 
but that page is now blocked. There's no reason for it to be blocked, 
because it does not allow entering bugs. Just prevents maintainers from 
doing their job and reviewing patches. Who can fix this?


Michael

P.S. I have https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777200 
outstanding but I'm sure there are many, many more waiting in the patch 
list.

I occasionally get internet search engine results which point to
projects-old.gnome.org. For clarification: If I try to visit any URL on
projects-old, will my browser/search engine/I get a HTTP 301 redirect
to some GNOME URL that will work? Or just a useless "Server not found"?

(Anecdote: I still regularly run into/click on links to wiki.gnome.org
just to end up on blank pages because some people thought it's a great
idea to reorganize content by moving pages without leaving redirects.)
