Got these errors when I tried to upgrade webcit (clean build, and I had
already upgraded libcitadel)

Ok folks ... Citadel 7.60 is now in soft launch. We'll announce it
soon.
And it looks like they've already marked it as a dupe.
Evolution's failure to behave properly with namespaces is a colossal
failure on their part. They should either map the namespaces properly or
not support them at all.
Of course, this is Ximian (aka Novell) we're talking about
It's an edge case, to be sure, but we might as well fix it now before
someone inevitably finds it later and starts complaining about it.
I was skeptical about the json format and client-side rendering at first,
but now that I'm getting used to it I'm starting to see how versatile it
is.
Ok, there are still some problems in this. I don't think the data model
has been fully updated. There are still references to *.ctdlRowId in the
code. I updated one of them, and that produced valid starting and ending
row numbers, but the group select still didn't work.
I also see a
Still trying to make sense of this ... what I'm starting to see now is
that it attempts to determine the range of messages for group select with
row numbers based on the order in which they were received from the
server, NOT the order in which they appear on the screen. So, if the
table was
Here's what I've done so far:
* Renamed rowId and markedRowId to rowIndex and markedRowIndex, to
reflect the fact that we are working with current on-screen index
positions rather than the order in which the rows were loaded from the
server
* Used the expression parent.rowIndex to
Aha! Now this is some real progress:
WCLog('startMarkingFrom=' + startMarkingFrom + ', finish=' + finish);
for(var x = startMarkingFrom; xfinish; x++) {
WCLog(Marking row + x);
markRow(parent.parentNode.rows[x]);
}
Still a little wonky but it's
Ok, all yours, Matt ... here's where we stand:
* Group select is working
* Multi select is partially working. Clicking on an unselected message
will select it, but clicking on a selected message will not unselect it.
* Hitting delete appears to perform the correct server
Looking into the group select bug ... so far I'm seeing that these
expressions are failing:
markedRowId = parent.ctdlRowId;
var rowId = parent.ctdlRowId;
The expression parent.ctdlRowId is undefined. This causes the group
select operation to mark rows 0 through 0, which
Yes, all good ideas; unfortunately it's one of those things that the core
team just doesn't have enough time available to do. We've definitely left
the door open for this to be done in the future ... or in the present if
someone volunteers to help out :)
Does the Citadel project have any start on an automated test suite? Â
Or
any documentation of manual tests, for that matter?
Yes, look at stress.c for a small test suite. It isn't comprehensive but
it does work.
I agree that edit is confusing in most vires, but most mailers to

the option to edit a message as a new message, so I'm also not entirely
comfortable removing it.
I'm not comfortable having it there unless it works! I'm sure it broke
on its way into the tree, but
This was the only thing that was really bugging me before we could release
7.60. Are there any glaring problems that need addressing, or can we get
the release process going now?
Hey, what was that problem we were having where HTTPS webcit logins were
failing? I saw it at home tonight on a computer that had the HTTPS webcit
for Uncensored bookmarked as its home page. Weird thing, it seems to just
say your password was not accepted and goes back to the login page, but it
Citadel's RSS reader is a hand-coded mapping of RSS directly into the
Citadel message base. It's fewer than 600 LoC because we *didn't* bolt on

libCurl did
Please note that the bug fixed in r7607 was not present in stable.
I do notice we have a new bug, though. When you hit Reply to an email
that was sent from a local user to another local user, it isn't quoted. I'm
guessing that this bug appeared during the introduction of Save to Drafts

This is the third time I've made that fix. Let's try not to break it again.
Ok, here we go. I'm upgrading Uncensored to svn trunk tonight. It's beta
time.
Well, that didn't work out too well. I've reverted back to svn trunk
citserver with stable-75x webcit.
Problems so far:
1. No graphics. For example, the iconbar is text only.
2. Sometimes when I log in it takes me to a room which does not exist. The
room's name is some random number.
Heh - I didn't mean hurry up and do it I meant, any ideas on how it
could
be portayed?
Rather simply, actually. Amend the output of the RWHO server command to
include an extra field indicating an IM-capable session. Any session not
advertising the ability to receive IM's should
Ok folks, as of today we are freezing for the 7.60 release. No new
features. Bug fixes only.
Ok, so we have our first batch of messages in a mailing list room that are
undeliverable since the improved mailing list code went online. I've got
a bunch of bounces in the Aide room, which is exactly where they're
supposed to go.
So ... hopefully everyone is *not* getting bounces in
Thanks for the patch; it has been applied.
We don't really know what happened to davew. He just disappeared one day
and never came back.
For a manual delete, we remove the message number from the room's msglist
and then write a record to refcount_adjustments.dat containing the msgnum
and the number -1 to indicate that the message has been removed from one
room.
When the autopurger runs, one of the last things it does is
That sounds expensive.
The autopurger lives in modules/expire/serv_expire.c
Do you want notifications of a message's removal from disk, or from a
particular room?
If it is the latter then I suppose we could write out a flat file as we
do the purge, and process it
Comments? Complaints?
How many weeks did we just add to the 7.60 development cycle by doing
this now?
Ok, looking good here. I'll have to learn how to use all these new toys
when I start building some of the new components.
I did notice something wrong, though: the Notes view is now broken.
Instead of showing the notes themselves it now shows MIME headers.
I'm hoping to get some
samjam: this is all great stuff. I wasn't familiar with socat; it looks
like just the thing to make the php framework usable without the clumsy
session proxy.

That did it. I was looking for VCardLoad() in the webcit sources.
Egads, that was 26 years ago. Now I feel *really* old.
I can't seem to build WebCit:
vcard_edit.o: In function `display_vcard_photo_img':
/root/ctdl/trunk/webcit/vcard_edit.c:1207: undefined reference to
`VCardLoad'

I'd be more impressed if you emulated Jimmy Superfly Snuka :)
Ok, I've located the source of the problem where you can't log in as a
user with spaces in the name.
striplt() doesn't just strip leading and trailing whitespace anymore.
The current version now seems to strip *all* whitespace.
This is probably causing other issues as well.
I'm suggesting that a search for an empty header (wefw|) should also
match
messages without that header.
Ok, this seems reasonable enough that you should go ahead and try it;
please watch for side effects. A good place to do regression testing
would be load/save of preferences
I think I know how we can avoid fetching each message twice during a
calendar render. We've already got MSGP and MSG4 ... and we *already*
prefer calendar items:
serv_puts(MSGP text/calendar|text/html|text/plain);
So it would seem that if we're using MSG4 to read the contents

Ok, that about wraps it up for LDAP authentication. If anyone wants to
test it out I'd love to hear what you think of it.
I ended up having to offer two different modes, one for the standard
RFC2307 schema, and a different one for Active Directory's ugly
nonstandard schema.
Was anything changed in the conditionals other than the numbers? (I just
need to know how extensively we need to re-test.)
As per my comments on irc earlier today ...
* I really think it's a bad idea to throw away 30 years of unix tradition
by declaring some value other than 0 to be the non-failure exit code.
This will certainly mess up a lot of third-party scripts out there.

Ok folks, please observe that we now have a STABLE branch. Any
last-minute bug fixes made between now and the 7.50 release need to be
committed to *both* the stable branch and the trunk.
That doesn't mean we can be careless with the trunk, though. I would
like the 7.6X development
Yikes. DLAT is missing the MIME metadata. Must fix that immediately.
Ok, there it is ... you should be able to switch back to DLAT now.
The normal exit path is through master_cleanup() in citserver.c, line 231
if it's an error-free shutdown. exit(exitcode) where exitcode == 0.
Ok, well, if this cannot be made to work reliably and immediately, then
these changes should be rolled back.
If we want to do SSL-encrypted Jabber, here's how to do it:
1. Edit serv_xmpp.c and search for starttls
2. Change #ifdef HAVE_OPENSSL__COMMENTED_OUT to #ifdef

3. Note that we have the exact same problem that is experienced with the

for final release is early April.
I'm using ctdlphp to write a blog front-end that exposes public folders

the tag names being globally unique, as long as they're unique within this
one application. All of our configuration variable names start with c_
already, and wherever possible I'm keeping the tag names identical to the
After a lot of review and consideration, I'm just not happy with the extra
complexity introduced by the xmacros stuff. I really think I'd prefer to
keep it simple, and if serv_vandelay is being replaced, now's the time to
make that decision, before any more time is spent on it.
It's an
Copy isn't always appropriate either ... although I suppose a copy from a
public room into a mailbox is. Now isn't the time to be adding features,
though.
7.43 (another beta release) is now committed to svn, and is available on
Queasy Install, and is also running on Uncensored.
Hey you think we can apply this to WebCit to get it to recognize primary
email address when editing vCards made with Sync Kolab?
Hang tight, I'll do this the right way

shouldn't we allow that in a way? is there a way?

i'd like to release beta 7.42 with that. any objections?
Go for it!
Ig, if yu rebuild the msgformart files, please use './buildpackages

attention that webcit will find a fresh copy of the templates in its

Ok, so does this mean that if

There should be a quote after the zero ... cellspacing=0
All of your issues are taken care of? How about you, Matt? On the server
side I'm comfortable with where we are right now.
Has everything been tested in IE6, IE7, and Safari/Opera/Chrome/etc ??
Go for it. It would be a good sell in MS environments.
That's part of the goal. I recently spoke to someone who had done some
independent research about Citadel and he told me that when people
discuss Citadel it's generally positive, but the one thing that they
complain about is the
My reply seems to become interpreted older than the original post? How
does
the RSS Reader create the timestamp?
It parses the date/time field from the feed, if it's there, and if it's
readable. Otherwise it uses the date that the feed was parsed.
Again, no unpleasant surprises here; we are in feature freeze and there's
no way I was going to touch Citadel with this. Besides, we still need a
couple of releases between the deprecation of the useless populate LDAP
module and its replacement with a useful authenticate from LDAP module.
Ok, I've updated the Easy Install copy of webcit from the
webcit-738-stable branch.
If this doesn't appear to be introducing any new bugs then we can release
this.
Maybe span ?

It was just pointed out to me that the Delete button is missing from

Can we get it back?
Uncensored is now running on svn head as of right now. Beta testing has
begun. All further commits should be strictly bugfixes until we get this
next release out the door.
/me is avoiding #citadel on freenode until email kindergarten is over.
Ok, I see how that works. I added another one for the 'Subject:' line.
What I want to do is test whether a message contains a recipient, and
output or not output the word to in the headers.
Question: how do you express a conditional of if this variable is longer
than zero bytes in the template engine?
I think that fixes OpenID. There was a problem with the conversion to
strbuf in that code.
I do like the StrBuf class, but we seem to incur a lot of bugs during
conversion. That being the case, I would like to decide right now that we
should *not* start converting anything in citserver
(I'm going to at least check in a warning message; we can add the special
shutoff switch if we're in agreement that this is the way to go.)
These two bugs should receive priority:
1. OpenID login screen
2. Display of a single contact in an address book view
Once these are fixed, I think we will be at a point where we can update
Uncensored to svn head and begin some heavy-load testing.
A note to everyone:
Translators have begun their work on localizing strings for the new
WebCit version (one has already returned their completed .po file), so we
are declaring an absolute freeze on any text strings for the time being.

very large systems) makes it all worth it.

I see that the problem of grey/white bars getting out of whack after
deleting an odd number of messages has been fixed as well. Thank you for
taking care of that.
I did notice that the search function in the mailbox view is now broken.
Based on some quick testing I'm fairly certain that even when you put in a
search term, WebCit is sending MSGS ALL|||1 instead of a MSGS
SEARCH|... command.
In other news, since we're now in feature freeze,
A little commentary on the above commit:
I noticed this while trying to repair the display of multipart/related
images, which don't seem to be working right now. It was requesting a URL
like /webcit/mimepart/1/image012@01c97be4.f32b7040/ because the part
number was being passed to
Ok, so multipart/related images are working now.
QUESTION: the links generated by multipart/related always contain the
'/webcit' prefix. Is this acceptable? I didn't remove them because I
didn't want to break things running in that mode. I don't have a system
running in that mode so I

Not this version. That's going to be one of the new features of Citadel
in 2009. First we've got to finish what we've already started.
No, its just an XMPP extension to set up and tear down peer-to-peer
video sessions, the actual video streaming happens between the clients
themselves using RTP and some NAT-busting logic (ICE), so, 'SIP for
XMPP' may
be a better analogy.
Clever. We'd end up seeing in the

Speaking of which ... I just tried out the current WebCit code on
Internet Explorer 6. The icon bar is a repeating display of icons instead
of one per line, and the room list doesn't display at all.
Do we have any statistics on what browsers webcit users use - say on
uncensored?
Sure, here are the statistics:
Overall:

Firefox: 41.15%
Safari:5.15%
Opera: 3.17%

So ... they just encode each video frame as an instant
Sadly it does seem we have to continue supporting IE6 for a while yet.
