Unfortunately the scheduled time was mixed up due me forgetting about the recent switch from CET to CEST in my place. The agenda for this meeting is available in the mailing list archives: https://mail.zope.org/pipermail/zope-dev/2010-March/039860.html The IRC logs are located here: http://zope3.pov.lt/irclogs-zope/%23zope.2010-03-30.log.html#t2010-03-30T17:00:52 Bug tracking We discussed how to establish a better routine for dealing with the bugs we receive, e.g. fixing, triaging, ... Two supplementary approaches solidified: taking up on bug days again and running automatic checks to warn us if new bugs aren't dealt with for a longer period of time. Bug days Bug days seemed to have disappeared because nobody stepped up for organizing them. Christian Theune volunteered to organize a bug day in April. We'll see how that works out and figure out how to deal with them regularly later on. To allow people from multiple time zones to join in comfortably the bug day will span a longer period in time, probably starting around 9am CEST for Europeans allowing the Americas-based developers to join in later. Bug days also could be a good way to allow fresh developers to pick up somethign easy and get immediate assistance with the process and internals. For that the moderator of the bug day should be prepared to help others with fixing bugs and documenting process-related issues along the way. Checking for orphaned bugs -- Charlie Clarke volunteered to try writing a script that uses Launchpad's API to poll for bugs that have been sitting without a developer paying attention for too long and sending mail to zope-tests accordingly. Christian Theune will assist him. Proposed API changes vs. moving towards Python 3 = Our current Python compatibility target is 2.6 with 2to3 converting for compatibility with 3.1. We're still in a chicken-egg situation with Python 3 as both libraries and important parts of the toolchain (packaging, testing) aren't compatible with Python 3 yet. The ZTK as a large set of libraries is a part of the problem itself for many consumers. There was preliminary work by various people, especially Martin von Löwis that is bringing the packaging utilities to Python 3. From our perspective we need to first get the BTK (bicycle toolkit) and especially testing infrastructure to run on Python 2.6 and 3.1 before dealing with further pacakges. This seems to be a good task for a sprint. (The next upcoming sprints are: Plone Symposium East in late May, EuroPython in July, and DZUG in September) As Lennart Regebro brought this topic onto the agenda but wasn't present due to the DST confusion we'll raise it again next time to allow him to express his view on the topic. Meta: Reviewing the weekly meeting experiment = Tres, Charlie, and Stephan expressed they find the weekly meetings helpful and would like them to continue. To make them viable in the long run Christian Theune will try to find a second person that can take over organizing the meetings when he's not around. Charlie also noted that short time and agenda are helpful. In the future we'll have to figure out how to keep track of the open issues that we put on the backburner. Christian Theune will check whether Launchpad or another specialised web application might help with that. The meeting summaries have been found useful, although the participants of the IRC meetings suspect that those developers that could not join may find them even more useful. Feedback from the mailinglist (hey, are you reading this?) would be welcome. People asked for the agenda/notification mail to include an ICS file. Christian Theune can't do that with his tool chain and the Google calendar at http://www.google.com/calendar/ical/5f83vmc2vka8vbmvr4ck79m...@group.calendar.google.com/public/basic.ics seems to have timezone issues, too. ___ Zope-Dev maillist - Zope-Dev@zope.org https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope )
[Zope-dev] Summary of this weeks' meeting (2010-03-30)
Hi, here's this week's summary. For those of you who can't/don't participate in those meetings, there's the open question about how useful you consider my summaries to be. Please tell! Also in short: we decided to keep going with the meetings, so I'd be happy to see you guys next week in #zope. (Hopefully without screwing up the time then.)
