Re: [Sugar-devel] How to copy something from the Journal to a pendrive? FotoToon export?
Hi, I've been trying for while now to copy journal entries to a usb stick. This works fine as long as files are concerned, e.g. Pics or Audio recordings taken with Record. It does not work if I try to copy an activity from the journal to the usb stick. No matter if I'm using the menu in the details view or drag and drop. The behavior is always the same: it appears to work, the little copy icon appears etc. but in the end the copied file is not on the stick. I've tried two different sticks, both have been recently formatted. Why would I want to copy an activity to a usb stick? Imagine two or more children. Half of them are in country1, the others are in country2. They would like to collaborate on an activity, e.g. FotoToon. One of the groups starts and adds a picture and some bubbles. Now they want to send their work to the other group so that they can add a picture and a couple of bubbles. This goes back and forth a couple of times. I actually managed somehow to store the FotoToon activity as a zip file. This zip contains the images and a .json file describing the bubbles. Unfortunately FotoToon does not seem to be able to open this zip file. More or less the same happens when I attach the activity to an email. If I rename the file to xxx.zip I can open it and there are the images and the json file. I cannot open it with FotoToon. If I do not rename the activity and try to start it it will open Etoys. Another problem is how to save the final story into a format that e.g. can be published on a website? FotoToon is just one example that the results that have been achieved while working with one activity cannot be used to be edited in another activity. I have the same problem with, amongst others, TamTamJam or Paint. Is it really not possible or am I missing something?

Is this something I could do with the help of my knowledgable flatmate Mr. Innocenti? Yep, shouldn't be hard nor a lot of code. As we're there, we might want to add a progress display for long copy operations. Currently, if you drop a large file on the journal icon, the UI freezes for a long time with no indication of progress, tempting the user to perform a hard reboot (and thus corrupting the datastore :-). If nobody has time to implement a nice progress bar, at least we could put on the busy cursor (which is animated in our cursor theme, iirc). The copy could probably be made fully asynchronous, but with no progress indication, there's a potential for users to extract USB sticks before the operation is finished. -- // Bernie Innocenti - http://codewiz.org/ \X/ Sugar Labs - http://sugarlabs.org/ ___ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel ___ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel
[Sugar-devel] Making people aware of the topic filter for sugar-devel
Hi! With the traffic rising on sugar-devel due to patch reviews, we should make sure people are aware they can use easy filtering on the mailing list side. A good first step would be to mention this possibility a) on the Mailing Lists wiki page [1] and b) in the welcome mail that is sent out to new subscribers. It would be nice if someone else could come up with a suitable text. Some rough instructions: To receive only mails for specific topics, select those topics in the Which topic categories would you like to subscribe to? option and answer No to Do you want to receive messages that do not match any topic filter?. To receive all mails except for a few specific topics (e.g. Patches and patch reviews), select all topics except those that don't interest you and answer Yes to Do you want to receive messages that do not match any topic filter?. The template for the welcome message currently looks like this: === Begin === Welcome to the %(real_name)s...@%(host_name)s mailing list! %(welcome)s To post to this list, send your email to: %(emailaddr)s General information about the mailing list is at: %(listinfo_url)s If you ever want to unsubscribe or change your options (eg, switch to or from digest mode, change your password, etc.), visit your subscription page at: %(optionsurl)s %(umbrella)s You can also make such adjustments via email by sending a message to: %(real_name)s-requ...@%(host_name)s with the word `help' in the subject or body (don't include the quotes), and you will get back a message with instructions. You must know your password to change your options (including changing the password, itself) or to unsubscribe. It is: %(password)s Normally, Mailman will remind you of your %(host_name)s mailing list passwords once every month, although you can disable this if you prefer. This reminder will also include instructions on how to unsubscribe or change your account options. There is also a button on your options page that will email your current password to you. === End === Sascha [1] https://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Mailing_Lists -- http://sascha.silbe.org/ http://www.infra-silbe.de/ signature.asc Description: PGP signature ___ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel

Re: [Sugar-devel] How to copy something from the Journal to a pendrive? FotoToon export?
Excerpts from tom.staub...@fhtw-berlin.de's message of Sun Oct 17 09:02:42 +0200 2010: Imagine two or more children. Half of them are in country1, the others are in country2. They would like to collaborate on an activity, e.g. FotoToon. One of the groups starts and adds a picture and some bubbles. Now they want to send their work to the other group so that they can add a picture and a couple of bubbles. This goes back and forth a couple of times. Re-reading your post again, it seems what you actually wanted to do was to save an activity _session_ (the content you worked on), not the activity itself (the program). This is still a bit of a sour spot. In order for the system to know what activity it needs to know either the activity it has been previously opened with or the MIME type (so it can select activities that are able to handle this type - that's what the Start with submenu shows). The Sugar data store can store metadata as arbitrary key=value pairs. Activities use this to set the activity id and the MIME type of the entry, so the Journal can resume an entry fine as long as it's in the data store and the metadata is preserved. External storage media (USB sticks, SD cards) are intended as a means to interchange data with non-Sugar systems, so we store entries as plain files instead of putting a data store on them (that no non-Sugar system would be able to read). And here we enter the messy world of traditional desktop systems: there is no place (*) to store metadata, especially not non-standard properties like the activity that wrote the entry. Not even the MIME type can be preserved properly; we need to rely on mappings between file extensions and MIME type. There's no single, central mapping (except for a few standard types) but rather each application ships a small part of the database with the MIME types and file extensions it cares about. If you don't have an application installed that recognises the file extension, you won't know the MIME type. The same technology is used in Sugar for reading files on external media. So if an activity wants to handle files of a certain MIME type, it needs to tell Sugar how to recognise the files (by shipping a suitable mimetypes.xml [1]). This is what some of the activities use to make the data store - USB stick - data store roundtrip work: They choose a custom MIME type and file extension. When copying files to the USB stick, the Journal will set the file extension based on the MIME type. When copying the entry back from the USB stick, the Journal will map the file extension back to the MIME type (if the activity is installed, i.e. if the mimetypes.xml is present). If the activity tells Sugar it can handle entries of this type (by setting mime_types in activity.info [2]), it will be used for opening (resuming) the entries. There is a way to transfer a data store entry including all of its metadata: Journal Entry Bundles [3]. Unfortunately the only way (that I know of) to _create_ such a bundle is my Backup activity [4] and it stores the entire data store instead of a single entry. It also uses a different MIME type and file extension (to make sure that these bundles are handled by the Restore activity [5] which can cope with JEBs containing multiple entries, unlike the Journal) but that would be easy enough to work around (by renaming the file). Thanks for following me through to the end. ;) Sascha (*) There are extended attributes [6], but they are only supported on some file systems (in particular not on VFAT, which is what all the USB sticks and SD cards come pre-formatted as) and need to be enabled explicitly (in /etc/fstab; no idea if it's possible to tell the Gnome auto mount magic to do it). Except for OS/2, Mac OS and a few special applications I don't know of anything that actually uses them for metadata (i.e. MIME type co).

[Sugar-devel] multiple instances of activities
Hi, I think I encountered a bug in Sugar. Looks like it might be related to this one: http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/10153 The behavior was not connected to a single activity as I encountered it in Record, TamTamJam and Etoys. It was not intentionally reproducible but it happened quite often. Most of the time none of the instances got started properly. Record for example looked quite ok, but did not display a camera image. One of the icons in the frame kept pulsing and the instances could not be stopped. The XO had to be restarted. This happened on at least three different XO-1s all running Build 852, Sugar 0.84.16. I was able to take screenshots of the context menus of the doubled instances frame icons. They look quite interesting, you can find them here: http://www.flatlandfarm.de/blog/?p=36 I hope it helps, Cheers, Tom ___ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel

I wanted to add a PATCH topic to sugar-devel so people like JT4Sugar
can filter out the review traffic.
Very nice idea.
Done. How can I check whether it worked (other than subscribing from a
second address)? I don't see anything regarding topics in
/var/log/mailman/...
Announcing this to the mailing list so those with existing topics set will
not miss PATCH traffic. (The default seems to have set this to off. So
anyone who has set topics to avoid, for example the buildbot notices, may
adjust their settings.)
From the settings page: (http://lists.sugarlabs.org/options/sugar-devel)
Which topic categories would you like to subscribe to?
By selecting one or more topics, you can filter the traffic on the mailing
list, so as to receive only a subset of the messages. If a message matches
one of your selected topics, then you will get the message, otherwise you
will not.
If a message does not match any topic, the delivery rule depends on the
setting of the option below. If you do not select any topics of interest,
you will get all the messages sent to the mailing list.

Can you also add a topic for !PATCH? Some people may like it.
I'm not sure that's a good idea. For one thing it doesn't play nice with
how topic filters work. If someone wants to filter out patches (instead
of receiving only patches), the way to achieve that is to check all
other topics and the Do you want to receive messages that do not match
any topic filter? option.
The other question that comes up is whether mailman assigns messages to
all matching topics or just the first one. I haven't found any answer
to this when I searched for it some time ago. Since the admin interface
let's you choose the insertion point for new topics, mailman probably
matches just the first topic, so a !PATCH filter wouldn't work anyway.

Half of them are in country1, the others are in country2. They would like to collaborate on an activity, e.g. FotoToon. One of the groups starts and adds a picture and some bubbles. Now they want to send their work to the other group so that they can add a picture and a couple of bubbles. This goes back and forth a couple of times. Re-reading your post again, it seems what you actually wanted to do was to save an activity _session_ (the content you worked on), not the activity itself (the program). Exactly. This is still a bit of a sour spot. In order for the system to know what activity it needs to know either the activity it has been previously opened with or the MIME type (so it can select activities that are able to handle this type - that's what the Start with submenu shows). The Sugar data store can store metadata as arbitrary key=value pairs. Activities use this to set the activity id and the MIME type of the entry, so the Journal can resume an entry fine as long as it's in the data store and the metadata is preserved. External storage media (USB sticks, SD cards) are intended as a means to interchange data with non-Sugar systems, so we store entries as plain files instead of putting a data store on them (that no non-Sugar system would be able to read). And here we enter the messy world of traditional desktop systems: there is no place (*) to store metadata, especially not non-standard properties like the activity that wrote the entry. Not even the MIME type can be preserved properly; we need to rely on mappings between file extensions and MIME type. There's no single, central mapping (except for a few standard types) but rather each application ships a small part of the database with the MIME types and file extensions it cares about. If you don't have an application installed that recognises the file extension, you won't know the MIME type. So what would be the right medium to interchange data between Sugar systems? The same technology is used in Sugar for reading files on external media. So if an activity wants to handle files of a certain MIME type, it needs to tell Sugar how to recognise the files (by shipping a suitable mimetypes.xml [1]). This is what some of the activities use to make the data store - USB stick - data store roundtrip work: They choose a custom MIME type and file extension. When copying files to the USB stick, the Journal will set the file extension based on the MIME type. When copying the entry back from the USB stick, the Journal will map the file extension back to the MIME type (if the activity is installed, i.e. if the mimetypes.xml is present). If the activity tells Sugar it can handle entries of this type (by setting mime_types in activity.info [2]), it will be used for opening (resuming) the entries. Does this mean that in the FotoToon example I could manually add a mimetypes.xml to the .zip file, remove the zip extension and FotoToon should be able to recognize this again? There is a way to transfer a data store entry including all of its metadata: Journal Entry Bundles [3]. Unfortunately the only way (that I know of) to _create_ such a bundle is my Backup activity [4] and it stores the entire data store instead of a single entry. Would the copy-from-journal / copy-to-journal scripts do the trick? It also uses a different MIME type and file extension (to make sure that these bundles are handled by the Restore activity [5] which can cope with JEBs containing multiple entries, unlike the Journal) but that would be easy enough to work around (by renaming the file). But it would mean that if I'm doing a Backup on User1's XO and doing a Restore on User2's XO, User2's data is lost and she's got all the stuff from User1 in her journal, right? Thanks for following me through to the end. ;) Thanks for the detailed information. Sascha (*) There are extended attributes [6], but they are only supported on some file systems (in particular not on VFAT, which is what all the USB sticks and SD cards come pre-formatted as) and need to be enabled explicitly (in /etc/fstab; no idea if it's possible to tell the Gnome auto mount magic to do it). Except for OS/2, Mac OS and a few special applications I don't know of anything that actually uses them for metadata (i.e. MIME type co).

[Sugar-devel] Mailman's admin and archive interfaces are horrible - suggest GroupServer.org
I'm assuming the infrastructure team are part of this list. I would like to recommend that Sugar Labs considers migrating from mailman to GroupServer as its mailing list system[1]. I've been using GroupServer as a participant for over a year for lots of open government New Zealand activities [1]. I find the system is far superior to mailman and Google Groups lists. The archives are easily searchable, attached files are converted to links to the server so that people's inboxes are not flooded. The middleware seems to deal well with filtering out replied content. The best feature for me is that threaded conversations are together in a single page[3]. I welcome any feedback. I think that a migration like this will make the mailing lists far more accessible as a knowledge archive. I've been assured that there is a migration path from mailman[4]. From what I know of Dan, its lead developer, it should be fairly easy reliable.

If I rename the file to xxx.zip I can open it and there are the images and the json file. I cannot open it with FotoToon. If I do not rename the activity and try to start it it will open Etoys. Another problem is how to save the final story into a format that e.g. can be published on a website? FotoToon is just one example that the results that have been achieved while working with one activity cannot be used to be edited in another activity.

As we're there, we might want to add a progress display for long copy operations. Currently, if you drop a large file on the journal icon, the UI freezes for a long time with no indication of progress, tempting the user to perform a hard reboot (and thus corrupting the datastore :-). If nobody has time to implement a nice progress bar, at least we could put on the busy cursor (which is animated in our cursor theme, iirc). The copy could probably be made fully asynchronous, but with no progress indication, there's a potential for users to extract USB sticks before the operation is finished. -- // Bernie Innocenti - http://codewiz.org/ \X/ Sugar Labs - http://sugarlabs.org/ ___ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel ___ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel ___ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel

One of the icons in the frame kept pulsing and the instances could not be stopped. The XO had to be restarted. This happened on at least three different XO-1s all running Build 852, Sugar 0.84.16. This sounds like http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/10016 also recorded as http://bugs.sugarlabs.org/ticket/1719 for which a patch is available. Could you please try the patch?

Re: [Sugar-devel] [PATCH v2 Paint] Changes made to save the last added text item. (OLPC #5917)

New variable text_status defined which could keep the track of the status of
text being entered and save it when activity is stopped.
What you do not say in this commit comment is how you have implemented
the change. Having reviewed your code change, I see you are forcing the
text entry to complete if the mouse leaves the drawing area while a text
entry is in progress. In detail:
1. when the instance of the drawing area is created, you set your state
variable to -1,
2. when a mouse down event occurs with the text tool selected, you set
your state variable to 0, representing text entry in progress,
3. when the mouse moves with the text entry in progress, you set your
state variable to 1, representing a mouse movement in progress during
text entry,
4. when the mouse leaves the drawing area with the state variable set to
1, you attempt to complete the drawing of the text.
Problems with this design:
a. the text entry will be prematurely terminated if the user moves the
mouse outside the drawing entry, which will be unexpected and annoying,
b. the mouse does not move if the Ctrl/Q shortcut is used, therefore
this code will not trigger,
c. when system load is high, it is possible for a mouse leave event to
arrive before a mouse move event, and so this code may not trigger.

Given my comments at the top of this message, you may not need to use
the following comments if you abandon the design ...
Please use a more appropriate variable name. text_status doesn't tell
me anything about what it is for. pending_text_state may be more
useful.
You are using -1 to mean initialised, 0 to mean disarmed, and 1 to mean
armed. These constants are used throughout your patch without further
explanation. If you still need a state variable, please define
constants, such as:
PENDING_TEXT_STATE_RESET = -1
PENDING_TEXT_STATE_DISARMED = 0
PENDING_TEXT_STATE_ARMED = 1
The -1 state does not seem to be needed.
