03:53 tuxayo wajasu: the email address older than me!
03:53 tuxayo I wonder what kind of idiocy GitLab did that blocked you. Do you by any chance use "+" in the email to make aliases?
03:53 tuxayo There are websites that reject emails with +
03:55 wajasu no i kinda was around when the internet became available to business.  not just universities in the 1980s to early ninties.
03:56 wajasu i used to just create my own domain names for free.  but they took my access away in the early 1990s.
03:57 wajasu i gave up writing my own unix kernel. jumped in helping Linus/Linux.
03:57 wajasu i just asked a guy who wanted to start running an email server, which he sold to the telecoms later, to host my email.
03:58 wajasu the domain ket getting bought and handed down.
03:59 wajasu i had "throw away" emails because i was extremely busy with everyone getting on the internet and didn't want spam.
04:00 wajasu i see that people collected old throw away domains, which spammers probably abused, so i expect gitlab has a filter.
04:01 wajasu i am sure your admins could put an exception in.
04:03 wajasu maybe if i expose my git server, you can pull my branch and create a merge request.
04:03 wajasu i might be easier/quicker for someone else to just create the branch and merge request.
04:04 tuxayo That's quite the story ^^
04:05 wajasu been coding since 1978 as a kid. computer were slow. would code in morning, hit compile, go to lunch and hope i had no typos.
04:05 tuxayo > maybe if i expose my git server, you can pull my branch and create a merge request.
04:05 tuxayo If you don't intend to contribute again to the dashboard or other tools related to Koha that might be a simple way to circumvent the issue
04:05 tuxayo > would code in morning, hit compile, go to lunch and hope i had no typos.
04:05 tuxayo 😱
04:05 wajasu its just one file in the pastebin i posted.  maybe tcohen will do it tomorrow. just to save time.
04:07 tuxayo Do you have an account on another forge?
04:07 wajasu i have to finish my library upgrade from 3.8 to 22.05
04:07 tuxayo impressive jump!
04:07 wajasu i don't have an account anywhere on the internet
04:08 wajasu the old email patch submissions was how i submitted things 10+ years ago. been a few years since I was around.
04:09 wajasu i built the library box and it ran the library since 2012ish.  but it died.  my backup scripts to the second drive saved the day.
04:09 tuxayo > the old email patch submissions was how i submitted things 10+ years ago. been a few years since I was around.
04:09 tuxayo Our Bugzilla kinda works that way so it would need to send patch it should be easy.
04:10 tuxayo backups++
04:10 wajasu i was going to use ktd a gitbz for signoffs.
04:10 tuxayo @karma backups
04:10 huginn tuxayo: Karma for "backups" has been increased 2 times and decreased 0 times for a total karma of 2.
04:10 tuxayo @karma backup
04:10 huginn tuxayo: backup has neutral karma.
04:11 tuxayo > i was going to use ktd a gitbz for signoffs.
04:11 tuxayo Yes, that would work the best
04:12 wajasu tmrw i am addressing the autoincrement records. :)
04:13 tuxayo This? https://wiki.koha-community.or[…]uto_increment_fix
04:14 tuxayo About your dashboard patch, with which (nick)name and email do you want to be credited in the commit?
04:17 wajasu wajasu is fine ( matted-34813@mypacks.net )   You don't have to credit me if some else does it.
04:17 wajasu i saw the systeminfo tab in the About page and saw, that I was on it way back :)
04:20 wajasu yes. i have some records to investigate that auto_increment issue
04:28 tuxayo > that I was on it way back
04:28 tuxayo What do you mean? (non-native speaker, I'm from the south of France btw, and you?)
04:29 wajasu i saw wajasu earlier in the timeline of people working on koha
04:30 wajasu i'm in Florida, USA
04:31 tuxayo > i saw wajasu earlier in the timeline of people working on koha
04:31 tuxayo Indeed :D
04:32 tuxayo Around the time of 3.08 ^^
04:34 wajasu i was around 6 years ago working on some bugs/signoffs. People were adding plugins, searchEngine, template toolkit. and much more.
04:35 tuxayo :D
04:35 wajasu i'm glad i dont have to pull down all the perl modules.  koha-common had that covered :)
04:36 wajasu that used to take me hours.
04:37 tuxayo I happy that I came at a time when ktd was already a thing ^^
04:37 wajasu i set up my docker 6 years ago, but docker compose was new.
04:38 wajasu now gitbz and all the setup saves time.
05:48 tuxayo :D
