Writing a unit test to test support for proxied connections in a computer that is not behind a proxy?
“I’m trying to maintain the KDE MediaWiki Library, so far only used by KIPI plugins, but I have some pet projects that rely on it as well. As part of that, I aim to keep the list of bug reports and feature requests (https://bugs.kde.org/buglist.cgi?product=libmediawikicomponent=generalresolution=---list_id=1061346) empty. As the library is barely used it is a fairly easy task, however I can’t figure out how to start with the only reported issue (feature request) so far: proxy support. I’m confident that I will be able to figure out how to implement the feature reading the API docs. I’m sure that there are several ways for me to make my computer think that it is behind a proxy, or to actually put it behind a proxy somehow (I can probably do something to the router to achieve that). But since I’m not usually behind a proxy myself, what I want first is to write a unit test for this feature, to make sure that I do not break it in the future. Has anyone here ever written a unit test to test support for proxied connections in a computer that is not behind a proxy? Do you think that it is possible? Specifically testing that the software uses the (KDE) system-wide proxy settings?” I sent the message above back in June to kde-testing: http://mail.kde.org/pipermail/kde-testing/2014-June/000395.html It was suggested to me at https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=302598 to send it to this mailing list instead, and see if I got luckier.

Re: Scripting/Extensions BoF at Akademy?
Nice idea to do a BoF about this topic! Since we use a lot of QtScript in Rocs for scripting (and I really would like to also offer Python support), I am also quite interested. Do you want to suggest a time slot for the BoF? cheers, Andreas

Next release is not going to be KDE SC 4.15 but simply KDE Applications 2014.12.

So we should not have a kdelibs 4.15 release, we should just be killing master and just doing some further releases of 4.14.x as bugfix, this way we avoid people using a branch of kdelibs that will never be released again. In the past we argued about the need to have new kdelibs versions since some applications use KDE_VERSION_NUMBER as their version number and we didn't want to break those apps. Well, applications using KDE_VERSION_NUMBER as their version number are doing it wrong, as it will stop working once we move to KF5, since there's no such concept as KDE VERSION there, so we may as well fix them now. Any objection? No objection, since I don't commit to the kdelibs repo that much, but a but. Not having a master branch would be confusing to me. It would be much more logical (and making kdelibs less special) to make the master branch what is currently KDE/4.14 and branch releases off of that, so KDE/4.15 would be branched off of master again. The policy of no features would still be in place, just that master always has all the latest patches, and releases come from that. Reason, if I'm building kdelibs from git, my autopilot way would be cloning (which gives you the master branch, dunno what'd happen if there's no remote master in the origin), see master, and assume that I now have latest and that it is what I should do patches against.

I agree with Albert. k-c-d is the list to for things that happen in development, like kde-review requests, inter-module coordination, etc. It is more like a kde-community-technical list. kde-devel is more a list for question regarding developing with the KDE platform. If there is really a need to fold one list with kde-frameworks its this one. Assuming you mean folding frameworks-devel, I'd agree.

Create a symbolic ref master that like the symbolic ref HEAD would (then) point KDE/4.14 Locally this just works fine - whatever you do using master applies to KDE/4.14 (including deleting the branch!) The question is whether you can do that on the remote (to have it for everybody). Doing it locally and pushing the ref afair isn't possible. Cheers, Thomas
