Re: [E-devel] Server/Gitlab/Etc... and our servers/sysadmins routinely letting us down.
I am more than willing to take charge of this if Bieber is ok with it. If we containerize things cant we go with a secure and stable super long term support distro like centos? Correct me if I am wrong each docker container is its own mini distro right or am I incorrect in that understanding? -Original Message- From: Simon Lees Sent: 17 December 2018 03:07 To: enlightenment-devel@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [E-devel] Server/Gitlab/Etc... and our servers/sysadmins routinely letting us down.

Re: [E-devel] Gitlab/Infrastructure Slowvote
Morning Guys, To answer your questions. In regards to a server to migrate the infrastructure to I am ready to sponsor such an endeavour. I am also ready to rebuild the existing server. The question here becomes is the community ready for this to happen? I think this is what the vote is for. I am not trying to push beber to the side I know he is busy and I am willing to step up and get things goign in terms of being rebuilt. Regards, Jonathan.

Those questions are rather fundamental (at least to me) in order to vote for anything. Also, how useful is it to know that the community wants to have a sponsored service if there is no funding at all.

I compile all of e, efl, terminology, rage on a raspberry pi with 768m ram (256 partitioned off to gpu) and do parallel builds... and can run a gui at the same time. e5 has 48gb of ram. last i heard from stefan the vm's for building had maybe 2 or 4gb ram allocated to them and limited disk space. correct me if i'm wrong - this may have been a while ago. Memory is not the issue here, CPU is. Each VM has 4GB or RAM, each build use -j6 and we can have up to 4 jenkins build at the same time, this on 3 different VM. Read this a different way: having build and servers (web, git etc) is not achievable. compared to a raspberry pi .. e5 runs rings around it so many times it's not funny and an rpi can do this easily enough. yes - jenkins adds infra cost itself, but a single vm for linux builds (with multiple chroots) would consume very little resources That is true, the VM overhead is not negligible. VM were the initial design and we stuck on this. I am far from being against that as I'm far from being against containers, finding the right time to work on this is a different matter. as it would only need a single build controller and just spawn off scripts per build that do the chroot fun. sure - need a vm for bsd, and windows and other OS's that can't do the chroot trick. > the hosting instances.

We don't just instances for build, we have instances for web, mail, git, phab etc ..

I'm partly to blame as I just don't know how most of it works. I figure it out as I go. :) But it would be good to have more people able to do hot fixes or address issues when others can't. I try and remember to let you know of any changes that you need to know about. This is correct, hotfix are fine, nothing wrong about that. What looks not fair is people blaming me for not being available in my spare time to volunteer for a project when others have access. It's a lost cause, I'm not going to whine about it. I think having as many VMs as we have doesn't help. Containers won't make that element simpler in terms of "too fragmented". Knowing which VM (or which container) something is in is hard enough to follow. :) You really need to know the infra well. Or just being used to do that. That's the thing as code, you know well code so you can pretty much decipher code quickly, whatever language or architecture being used. For infra it's pretty much the same thing. When you are used to it, you can figure out pretty much all the components very quickly. I know it's not "secure" and "right" but having fewer VMs with "shared hosting" within a single instance for many things might help a lot. This is a design choice we made 5+ years ago when we set e5 up. The idea being to be able to put each VM to a different place in case of disaster recovery. This does not mean we have to stick on that. I'm in favor in making this change. It does not mean it has to be me doing this. You're all bunch of smart people that can come with alternative. What I'm NOT going to do is to explain every single step to people as it would consume me more time than doing it myself. This is exactly the speech I have to Jacquinola multiple time, I see a will to do stuff but not seen much proposal or action from that.

I find containers easy to use for such things. What I really want to see in the end so is a system where we have a _group_ of people having access and understanding the system. I totally agree. I tend to leave things alone if they work. If they don't... I often find that I have had to stick my fingers in and figure it out. I'd like others to be able to do the same.

I guess you should ask Beber how to get access to IPMI (password, etc) and if he fails to reply you would need to go back to OSUOL. They should still have you listed as a person with rights to access, I hope (?).

This is something I do not agree with. I have been kicking into pants for problems with the infra for _years_ when doing Jenkins. It has changed nothing and I moved over to cloud services to get the control and flexibility I needed. This is a result of policy from Beber of giving pretty minimal VM's with limited ram/disk with gentoo. We have the resources - they are just not being assigned and being able to provision your own is far too complex with what we have. If all you had to do was run some libvirt cmds to spin up a new VM of whatever size/config you wanted , I think you'd be fine. Making a fixed infra a dependency for the potential move to gitlab is not reasonable in my opinion. Forcing it to wait on something that has not happened in 15 months and putting the extra work on the shoulders on people who want to handle the move. Its like telling someone who wants to add a new elm widgets to finish interfaces and get it out of beta first. :-) It's a change of management/direction away from being dumped onto the community's laps. What we have works. It has its warts. Everything else does too. The infra problem should get tackled

[E-devel] Gitlab test instance
Hi guys, I know alot of you havent had a chance to play around with gitlab. I am setting up a linode instance with gitlab for playing around with I have included backups as they are dirt cheap, and once everything is setup I will take a snapshot so if you guys break it all you need to do is let me know and I can restore from the snapshot. Also I know you guys mentioned using cloud services. Linode what I like the most about them they arent expensive is the first thing, the second thing is that I can give those that want and need access to manage the infrastructure (VPS) access to individual accounts so if I am not around you guys can administer the VPS. I would highly advocate linode as a temporary solution until we get our main machine in working order. You can also keep the vps if you opt to do so and turn the main server's that e have into CI servers. I thought i would let you guys know about this. Git lab from what I found on the documentation is rather easy to setup from the looks of things. ___ enlightenment-devel mailing list enlightenment-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-devel

If it reaches a point where no one is willing to provide infra we can equally move onto a public cloud for as long as necessary. As long as the gitlab instance is created right this is probably a major reason I think its worth migrating.

Re: [E-devel] Gitlab
To be fair I am more than willing ot sponsor a server at OVH and give ssh access to those that need it. On 2018-09-12 11:45, Stephen Houston wrote: OSUOSL is great. But it's pointless when none of us can get the access we need to the server and when the person that has/controls that access takes forever and a day to communicate and/or wont budge. Help has been offered in sysadmin for years from multiple devs who are sysadmins by trade and who could handle the complexity, and there is absolutely no change and it is not allowed. Further, Stefan is being generous... it has been more like 10 months, nearly a year since OSUOSL asked us to replace the fan. This is frankly embarrassing. We cant even get a model number so that one of us could personally drop ship it to them. That really looks bad on us... Again that is basically humiliating. With all of these issues I think it would be a great improvement to moved to sponsored cloud hosting. We would actually have access and not have to worry about the hardware maintenance.

There are also unlimited tickets set to 'pending on user input' which are dead; these also will not be closed. Most likely both of these types of open items should just be closed during migration.

Re: [E-devel] Gitlab
If we are going to migrate I think we should migrate tickets slowly to see which ones are still valid and not pollute the new tracker with issues that are either moot or no longer valid. On 2018-08-10 18:09, Mike Blumenkrantz wrote: Hello, For some time now, everyone in the community has been expressing significant dissatisfaction with the current project management software, Phabricator. A number of individuals have proposed switching to Gitlab for various reasons. Some will recall that recently all of the FDO infrastructure migrated from Phabricator to Gitlab thanks in large part to an incredible, hand-crafted migration script authored by notable open source figure Daniel Stone. While this script was not exactly what could be used to migrate our own infrastructure, it gave me an idea. Thanks to a low-pay intern who just graduated and whose name I don't recall, work began to modify the original FDO migration script and update it to handle various features exclusive to our usage of Phabricator. Thanks to generous hosting provided by the basement of the intern's parents, I was able to review the work as it progressed to see if it would be worth showing to the community. Weeks have passed, and now, thanks to many sleepless nights and long weekends that this devoted intern spent doing devops work, I was able to provide justification for more robust hosting and acquire a cloud service to host an official proof-of-concept for a Gitlab migration: https://gitlab-prototype.s-opensource.org/ Some notes: * This is read-only for now * User creation is disabled, don't bother trying * Issues with their comments have been imported * Patch submissions have been imported (the intern screwed up some of the early imports so there are a few patches without the diff inlined) - Comments on patch submissions cannot be imported because Phabricator has no API for retrieving comments on patch review * Wiki pages are not imported since some decision-making is required As is easily noticeable, not all projects have been imported by my intern. Importing the repo takes some time on its own, and then running the migration script takes a variable amount of time on top of that depending on the size of the project (EFL was estimated to take 10+ hours to fully import). Wiki pages have not been imported. On Gitlab, a wiki is project-specific and so it is impossible to do a 1:1 copy unless we decided to stick everything onto a specific project. We would have to decide how we want to do this. If we decided to switch to Gitlab, there would be a number of questions that need to be answered: Q: How do we migrate? A: Gitlab cannot accurately mirror all of Phabricator, it can only do a one-time migration of projects. This means we would at some point lock phab and then begin migrating, likely over a weekend for the major projects with the remainders being added later. Q: What happens to phab? A: We would likely want to keep phab in read-only mode for a while after the migration since all the migrated tickets/patches will provide links to it. We can later evaluate if we need to keep it running. Q: Where would this be hosted? A: The provided link here is a cloud service which will be funded for the foreseeable future. At present I am very strongly opposed to hosting this anywhere on the existing EFL infrastructure since it has been impossible for anyone to get access to any part of the server or to have tasks reliably handled in anything but a random and notification-less manner. A community project cannot have infrastructure which is unable to be accessed, managed, or maintained by the community which is using it.

[E-devel] Quality of bugs on phab
Hi Guys, I think a good place for me to start as I fight with getting things built on fedora from git is that of traging of bugs that have had no activity for an extended period of time. I am posting a comment on them to see if I get any feedback and if there is no feed back I will mark a note on it for those subscribed to reopen the ticket if its still valid. Also I am seeing alot of bug reports of very low quality. In the sense there isnt any detail as to what the issue is. Is there a work flow that we can setup to ensure a standard of bug reports is met in the sense what steps we can take to try and reproduce as well as maybe hardware specs. I am sending this more to open up a discussion on this as i feel like phab should be used to help us report issues that developers can then try to reproduce and if replicated fixed.

Hi all, I think writing unit tests would be good for someone like me whose new to the code base if it helps to catch issues. My question though is do we have a tags on phab where senior devs post tickets for tests that someone like me can grab and start working on?

Well first reproducing it (in a test environment) and grabbing a backtrace to unlink() functions called with gdb so we know the code path that caused it. I to am doubtful it's EFL itself just deciding to delete. It's probably something triggered by the app, but could it be a change in response from EFL that then triggers code logic to do this?

Not sure if my reply from earlier today made it to the list as I then got an email shortly after saying my address had been suspended from the list, God SF is a POS, but i digress there with that little rant. I am more then eager and willing to put together an enlightenment spin on fedora 27 with binary packages in a custom repository that anyone could connect to as needed. I would base it off master branch given that fedora is the more bleeding side of RHEL and centos are based off of it. On 2018-03-07 15:52, William L.

Ideally at some point the communities find some way to re-unite and combine efforts. That maybe more utopian than realistic. when i am thinking a distro i am thinking something that is up to date. probably 2 versions - last stable release one and a "bleeding edge" one from git to show off new things.

Either livecd or stage 4 base system, etc. a distro where people have to wait for everything to compile... i'm not a fan of. The other choice is to wait for others to package stuff in binary format. Some distros are better than others. But who says it has to remain that way? Ever checked out Sabayon? A binary distro built on Gentoo. https://www.sabayon.org/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sabayon_Linux :( i think for gentoo having the gentoo emerge package builds up to date and clean and tidy and well done is probably the right thing. when i say "distro" i mean something that out of the box just works. boots right into e. working desktop etc. etc. ... and if they want to install more they don't have to wait for compiles. quick package download+install and presto.

I think your thinking of Gentoo as it is now, rather than a foundation to build what you want on top. Who says a E distro based on Gentoo would required compiling? E could easily compile stuff and setup a binhost etc. Lots of options if you think creatively. Plus you will want to build stuff to offer options. Otherwise you either ship with all the lights/bells and whistles turned on, or you choose for people. There are various compile time options for both EFL and E. Thus either need to provide different binaries for each combo or choose for people, which may exclude others. -- Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot ___ enlightenment-devel mailing list enlightenment-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-devel -- Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot ___ enlightenment-devel mailing list enlightenment-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-devel
Re: [E-devel] Current State and Future Direction of E/EFL
Hi simon, I think what you are talking about is gerrit code review. I know Libreoffice use it and for them I think you need to have 3 reviewers before the code is committed as well the code gets compiled and built as well to ensure it works. https://gerrit-review.googlesource.com/Documentation/intro-how-gerrit-works.html I am not sure if jenkins has a flow like what you are describing, but at least you have more control over the quality of whats committed.

It should get caught as soon as possible if it does before anything is built on top and that may mean reverting work that created a break ASAP if that is the most efficient path. More generically here is the order of bad things for git master: #1. Builds break. #2. Building against X breaks (e.g. building terminology or e against efl). #3. The app or lib just crashes or doesn't work in regular usage leaving people with an unusable environment #4. API/ABI breaks (code, data files, theme etc. - we only do these with a lot of careful thought, discussion and weighing up of the pros and cons). #5. A new design or idea/direction that then will be built on top of and if #this design/idea has big issues. git master should be "usable day to day" for developers and "advanced users". It will get bugs and issues but they should be resolved ASAP and avoided as much as possible. But at least in my reality this is just not happening. A lot of things stay broken until I poke people to fix them, bisect them or push to get a release out. Right now there is at least the osx build broken for a while and edje_cc does run when build on a aarch64 system. These are simply not the development systems we use. One could say that everything not x86_64 and Linux will stay undetected. Once detected such things are often to hard to revert by the pure amount of commits that hit master in between. People who do the work get to call the shots. It is of course affected by history of contribution, knowledge of the project and what it interacts with etc. etc. ... I do not think having some committee of project managers is going to make anything better. I think if anything it just makes things worse by adding overhead. If we made everything code-reviewed ala phab, I think it'd be far worse. development would dwindle and die. I absolutely know that I'd personally just stop if I had to put every commit I do through review. Review is a tool for developers who are not trusted yet or who need to learn or who are not involved deeply enough to be held responsible for their work. Then I believe the cost is justified. If you see that the majority of breaks actual comes from developers with commit access this is partly amusing and partly sad. I my opinion we should actually be happy if we could slow down the amount of commits. Way to often I see rushed in commits which get followed up by n more commits to fix things that could have been spotted during QA and review before letting it in master. I realize this is something fundamentally disagree on. You want all commits in master as soon as possible so other can actually use it. I only want a stable and tested subset of changes being put in master after the code maybe has gone through some iterations. The world is not going to stop spinning just because a commit gets into master a day later. The way we use CI is a toothless tiger. Whatever it detects (and it does not detect as much as it should, actually) nobody cares if I not personally come after the person. Given the little impact it can have this way my interest does dwindle and die to push it forward. I am fighting this area alone and no interest has been shown from others (which is fair enough), which basically means it will drop dead if I stop looking after it. Maybe someone would pick it up again, but future telling is not my string side. Which does summarize my stand point as: 1) ALL commits should go through review and automated QA 2) New things can easily be tested by using branches, no need to have it in master for this. 3) Slow down of commits by taking your time and addressing found issues in new iterations instead of fix up later on in master. 4) QA, test cases, etc should be the objective of all devs. So yeah, very far a way from what you think as the best workflow. Well, we agree that QA, test cases and review is needed but not at what point in the workflow. :-) regards Stefan Schmidt Morning all, Maybe a half way point here is if every commit (or maybe group of commits) had to go through a simple review where jenkins or some other bot checks that the commits

The amount of extra people we got when co-hosting with LF events have been really low (we have been doing so in Barcelona, Edinburgh and kind of in Duesseldorf).

Re: [E-devel] Improving web site accessibility
Hi guys this is something I can contribute to in terms of website. and I can even host it if you all so desire. Question is do you want this built off a framework, such as wordpress where it will be easy to include a forums section or something custom built? On 2017-11-16 22:26, Stephen Houston wrote: +1 I've been saying we need a new website bad. And one that is sleek, modern, and yes white. Time to look up to date and kept with the times. You will notice nearly every major linux distribution and nearly all major linux software websites are in the confines of what you describe. Simple, flat, white background and black text, sharp but small images that are mostly subtle, and responsive design to look good across devices. The reason being that this is proven to be the easiest on the eyes and the most pleasing to the reader as you said. On Thu, Nov 16, 2017, 3:58 PM Cedric Bailwrote: Hi, As some of you may have noticed we are doing some improvement to our documentation and trying to get things easier when starting with EFL. One of the main issue we are facing is that our website is definitively hard to read for a lot of people. So Paul went on trying to figure out why. The first problem is actually the constrast ratio between background and text. According to W3C accessibility guidelines ( https://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG21/#contrast-minimum )it should be 4.5:1 at least. Our colors are #818181 for the text and #303030 which give a contrast ratio of 3.39:1 ( https://webaim.org/resources/contrastchecker/ ). And it is worth for people with vision impairment where it should be 7:1. Black on white or white on black would work, but according to some random person on Internet (could not find a scientific evidence/citation of it) a white background force your pupils to contracts, making it easier to focus your eye with a smaller pupil (much like the depth of field is increased with a smaller camera lens). This could be shown by a test carried on 136 subject, where the people reading black text on a white background scored better than any other combination of colors ( http://lite.mst.edu/media/research/ctel/documents/LITE-2003-04.pdf ). The second problem are our links that are difficult to tell wether they have been clicked on or not. Also they have a slight glow around the links that makes them harder to read. The best link on the subject we can point to would be https://www.nngroup.com/articles/guidelines-for-visualizing-links/ . So it would be best to come up with a more accessible design for our web site. If someone want to suggest a new design within those constraint, it would be great, but I would suggest to look at https://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/documentation/ or at http://doc.qt.io/ . They are simple and work well in term of readability. We could easily go with something like that. What do you think ?

I've also added 3 new base projects: easy, difficult, impossible. These have no code-based project associated, and exist solely for tagging tasks.

Re: [E-devel] Phab EFL ticket management
I would be willing to test and triage bugs if need be. Also I want to propose a method that libreoffice uses and that is of what they call easy hacks. They are classified according to complexity and would be a good way to encourage new developers to join and a good way for them to get used to the code Base. Sent from Samsung tablet.

Whilst folk are doing a great job of marshalling the incoming tasks I think that some more structure would help us to see what is needed in each area and for the next release etc... In preparation for 1.21 I would like to start working on this a little to help us manage the work for our next release (especially as it will be the eo interfaces release!) and propose to do the following in phab, as it is otherwise managing to keep track well: * Add a milestone to efl phab project for the next release - this will be used to mark the issues we have agreed must go into the next release * Add sub projects for each area of EFL so we can better categorise the tasks (we can either use EFL or a "common" subproject for those that apply to all * efl-eina * efl-eolian * efl-canvas * efl-canvas-layout * efl-ui (etc etc) Notice the use of the new namespaces for everything in the interfaces - this is surely how we should be thinking going forward :) If we are able to split things out a bit more then we can have more people assigned to projects with fewer issues per project. Then the milestone for release can be the main point of concern for a release manager :) I wanted to throw the concept out to the list before doing anything in case there are any concerns with this approach that I may have missed?

I like the idea of a forum, certainly more then more slack channels, forums for example are not only public and searchable but indexed by google so answers start showing up in google as well. To get the most out of it though it would be nice if we had a irc / slack bot that posted every new forum topic to IRC then people who help there would probably also see and answer the questions on the forum. The reality is many users don't understand irc or mailing lists, there simply not old enough but they do understand forums, bodhi for example has a reasonably active forum. If such a forum existed, i'd be happy to help monitor and moderate it and forward appropriate questions to the bugtracker / mailing list / irc as needed so they reach the right people where needed. -- Simon Lees (Simotek) http://simotek.net Emergency Update Team keybase.io/simotek SUSE Linux Adelaide Australia, UTC+10:30 GPG Fingerprint: 5B87 DB9D 88DC F606 E489 CEC5 0922 C246 02F0 014B -- Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot ___ enlightenment-devel mailing list enlightenment-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-devel -- Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot ___ enlightenment-devel mailing list enlightenment-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-devel

I had svn version of epymc but I can't even remember how it was because there were a lot of enhancements. Thanks to you. By the way, I have a couple of comments. 1. The icon and text sizes are too big compared with the default elementary theme with the default scalability. I had to manually scale it down to 0.5 to match it with default elementary theme from the general configuration panel. Is there a reason behind this? This is a media center, it is designed to be used in fullscreen from your couch... Can you read the texts from the couch at 0.5 scale? this app is not designed to match the default elm theme for the desktop. But, if you really prefer a smaller scale (maybe your monitor has different dpi?) you can adjust the interface scale right from the config, there's a proper option for that. Hum, I think the intent of scale is different. We should define what scale 1.0 means, but until now it has pretty much means that it is a 90 dpi screen being read at 60 cm. Now your issue is with elementary config and this is something we need to solve. Enlightenment make it possible to specify an elementary profile per virtual desktop (If you manage to find the configuration option). The idea being that we should have a TV profile for elementary that will be used when we use it with a TV screen. I would argue that Enlightenment need improvement in that regard, but it would be neat to provide a config dialog with widget preview when a screen is plugged in to solve this kind of config hazard. Anyway point is, current situation need to improve. I understand why you did that as it help users until we have a better configuration infrastructure/UI, but when that happen Daniel will be perfectly right. -- Regards, Jonathan Aquilina Founder Eagle Eye T -- Infragistics Professional Build stunning WinForms apps today!

Re: [E-devel] [e-users] Emotion Media Center 1.0 first beta is out
What I am about to say could be totally off topic for this discussion, but wouldnt you need some high DPI images etc especially for a media center which will run on rather big screens. I am not toally sure what it involves but if its something that would sound like its needed I can do some research and provide links to my findings.

I had svn version of epymc but I can't even remember how it was because there were a lot of enhancements. Thanks to you. By the way, I have a couple of comments. 1. The icon and text sizes are too big compared with the default elementary theme with the default scalability. I had to manually scale it down to 0.5 to match it with default elementary theme from the general configuration panel. Is there a reason behind this? This is a media center, it is designed to be used in fullscreen from your couch... Can you read the texts from the couch at 0.5 scale? this app is not designed to match the default elm theme for the desktop. But, if you really prefer a smaller scale (maybe your monitor has different dpi?) you can adjust the interface scale right from the config, there's a proper option for that. Hum, I think the intent of scale is different. We should define what scale 1.0 means, but until now it has pretty much means that it is a 90 dpi screen being read at 60 cm. Now your issue is with elementary config and this is something we need to solve.
