 * Updated olpc-runin-tests to v0.11

os11.packages.txt shows olpc-runin-tests-0.11.0-1.noarch unchanged from
os10.

I've checked that my packages of 0.11.1 are properly present at
~/public_rpms/f13-arm-olpc.

But my name is not in rsync://dev.laptop.org/ ... because it is not in
/etc/rsyncd.conf ... because /etc/rsyncd.conf has not been
updated since 2010-04-08, and the /etc/cron.hourly/find-rsync-rpms
script is missing on crank.

However, /etc/find-rsync-rpms is present, and works, and the only
changes to rsyncd.conf that result are for users jnettlet and quozl, so
for the moment perhaps 0.11.1 will appear in next build.

Meanwhile, it can be downloaded and tested:

rsync rsync://dev.laptop.org/quozl/f13-arm-olpc/\
olpc-runin-tests-0.11.1-1.noarch.rpm .
rpm -U olpc-runin-tests-0.11.1-1.noarch.rpm

Should crank:/etc/cron.hourly/find-rsync-rpms be a symlink to
/etc/find-rsync-rpms?

Re: [Sugar-devel] Potential data loss problem in collaboration

[Sridhar Dhanapalan]

Done: http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/11012

So far we have tested with with Write, but I'd expect similar results
with any other activity.

 Hi Sridhar,

 Simon is doing a lot of work in this area -- please do file this in
 dev.l.o. The steps to repro are good, just add precise versions of the
 OS and the affected activities.

 cheers,

 We have found a problem that could lead to data loss in the field.

 General summary:

    A shares an activity
    B connects to A's shared instance
    Collaborative work is done by A and B
    A closes the activity
    B continues to work on the activity (maybe they didn't realise
 that A has left)
    A shares again
    B connects
    Everything B has worked on since A left the first time is lost

 This example uses the Write activity, but it can happen with any activity:

    A begins activity
    A types something (text is “AA” now)
    A shares the activity
    B joins activity
    B types something (text is “AABB” now)
    A closes activity (Text saved in A’s journal is AABB)
    B continues to write something (text is “AABBCC” now)
    B also closes activity (Text saved in B’s journal is AABBCC)
    Now B opens the same activity from B’s journal. B is able to see
 the text AABBCC now.
    B closes the activity.
    Now A opens the activity from journal. Text is AABB now.
    A shares the activity again.
    B joins the activity from the neighbourhood view since it is
 shared. Text in B’s XO is AABB now.
    A and B close the activity.
    Now when B opens the activity from the journal again, only AABB is
 seen (text CC is lost).
