hmm |
| 01:31 |

apparently it depends on what I view |

not sure it requires another page. I'll have to reread it when I'm more alert |
| 01:52 |
|
Brooke |
I just think it requires better linking |
| 01:52 |
|
Brooke |
and some of it is on the site |

yup |

though it doesn't say why |

5 years seem like a logical time frame for planning? Or should I tighten that up given our breakneck release pace? (Though that would increase the number of chairs tossed my way at the suggestion of planning.) |
| 02:08 |
|
wizzyrea_ |
5 years for the duration of the plan? |

that depends on what the lofty goal is you're trying to achieve I think |

hi reva |

reva |
hi good evening anyone awake. I have installed Koha 3.2 Live CD.It is running on Ubuntu 10.10; I am not able to connect to the internet. Localhost is fine. Any networking experts have solutions? Had similar issues running 3.0.6 through Live CD on Ubuntu10.04. Solved using static address in network configuration. |
| 02:14 |
|
reva |
Hi Brook. Are you new here in Koha-community chat? |
| 02:15 |
|
jcamins |
reva: this is not a Koha issue. |
| 02:15 |
|
reva |
Sorry, that was supposed to be Brooke. |
| 02:15 |
|
jcamins |
I would encourage you to try troubleshooting this on Ubuntu fora. |
| 02:15 |
|
wizzyrea_ |
i'm guessing you have the same problem that you had before |
| 02:15 |
|
reva |
Is there a chat channel for them you recommend, jcamins? |

The 3.2 Live CD had no problem when I tested it on VirtualBox; only when I installed it in the hard disk partition. wizzyrea. |
| 02:17 |
|
reva |
Ok, I followed the solution I found and shared it with the Live CD developer for 3.0.6 running on Ubuntu 10.04. But that is not solving the issue with 10.10. |
| 02:18 |
|
wizzyrea_ |
i'd take it up with the ubuntu folks |
| 02:18 |
|
reva |
ok, I will try the link wizzyrea. Thanks. |
| 02:21 |
|
jcamins |
reva: I just Googled "network troubleshooting ubuntu," and it brought up some results. |
| 02:21 |
|
reva |
The solution I followed before and did not succeed this time is the October 16 entry on this page: http://mizstik.com/projects/ko[…]-page-3/#comments. Was hoping may be there may be an Ubuntu expert here. Thanks for all the help. |
| 02:21 |

Ok jcamins, I am all ears.:) |

How did it work? |

I wouldn't call it running, precisely...walking, very slowly, perhaps. The netbook in question is an Asus EEE 900A, with (at that time) half-a-gig of RAM, and a 4 GB SSHD. Not a lot of elbow room. |

The installation went normally for a Debian install-on-a-new-box, no trouble at all. |

A more up-to-date netbook would have no particular trouble, I don't imagine, running any of the Debian-derived OSes for netbooks. I had to mount a 2 GB SD card to have enough disk space; those things are creepy-slow, which did not help. |

Apparently that's such a horrifying thought I scared away jwagner? |

jcamins: shouldn't be too hard as long as you don't need "online resources", like doing a z39.50 search? |
| 13:15 |

druthb |
If you got a netbook with at least a gig, and more disk space, it should be fine, though it might be a little bit slow. The ones I'm seeing around right now with 160GB drives and 2GB of RAM would be fine. |
| 13:15 |
|
jcamins |
druthb: that's not a netbook! That's a laptop replacement! |
| 13:15 |
|
druthb |
(And Easy Peasy's latest release is a pleasure to use, too, and easy to install.) |
| 13:16 |
|
druthb |
There are plenty for about $250 bucks that have 1 GB RAM and the Atom N450 processor; that'd work, too. |

wizzyrea |
sekjal, magnus, and chris_n: we kind of use bugzilla for what you're proposing using mediawiki for, and there's a page that lists everything listed as enhancement, and what the status is: http://koha-community.org/about/enhancing-koha/ |
| 14:51 |
|
wizzyrea |
again, it hinges on people actually using it |
| 14:51 |
|
Brooke |
true, but it would allow the bugzilla phoebic to avoid bugzilla |
| 14:51 |
|
wizzyrea |
the prior contention was that the bugzilla phobic need to get over it. |
| 14:52 |
|
* chris_n |
imagines a bugzilla plug-in for wikimedia |
| 14:52 |
|
wizzyrea |
there's no reason you couldn't embed the rss feed for those searches into the wiki. |
| 14:53 |
|
sekjal |
well, it would be a good exercise in Template Toolkit to write a new interface to Bugzilla that's more librarian-friendly for searching/adding/editing enhancement requests |
| 14:54 |
|
magnus |
i think one question is: should the meat of an RFC be on bugzilla or in mediawiki? |
| 14:54 |
|
wizzyrea |
I think it should be on the wiki, with an entry in bugzilla pointing to it |
| 14:54 |
|
* chris_n |
thinks that is the question |
| 14:54 |
|
wizzyrea |
why do just one? |
| 14:54 |
|
chris_n |
but keeping the two in sync appears to be an issue |
| 14:54 |
|
sekjal |
neither system is quite right, but the wiki is closer |
| 14:54 |
|
sekjal |
I vote Wave-in-a-Box! |
| 14:55 |
|
magnus |
and the wiki allows for collaborative editing... |
| 14:55 |
|
braedon|h |
Brooke: a good playlist is so much more than the sum of its parts! |
| 14:55 |
|
chris_n |
magnus: could such a setup as you are proposing be made to post to bugzilla automagically? |
| 14:55 |
|
magnus |
chris_n: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/[…]:Bugzilla_Reports (if you didn't see it already) |
| 14:55 |
|
kf |
ok, I have fines but no entries in message_queue... hmpf! |
| 14:55 |
|
magnus |
chris_n: dunno |
| 14:55 |
|
* chris_n |
passes kf more fudge |
| 14:56 |
|
kf |
chris_n: when you said it didn't work for you - did it still create the messages or was that broken too? |
| 14:56 |
|
kf |
thx :) |
| 14:56 |
|
chris_n |
"Provide reports easy for non-techies to read." |
| 14:57 |
|
chris_n |
kf: it generates messages, but includes $0.00 for all fines regardless of their true value |
| 14:57 |
|
Brooke |
I think the bar is access. If you don't give a snot about your users, post solely to bugzilla. If you do, duplicate information in friendly formats, then funnel to a developer preferred locale. |
| 14:58 |
|
chris_n |
well it sounds like the plugin magnus references would work to update the wiki from bugzilla |
| 14:58 |
|
chris_n |
so if the RFC was entered as a bug it could then automatically show in the wiki |
| 14:59 |
|
magnus |
chris_n: yep, but wouldn't create a page in the wiki |
| 14:59 |
|
kf |
chris_n: Ithink it's my configuration... something is still missing |
| 14:59 |
|
kf |
will figure it out |
| 14:59 |
|
chris_n |
but then there are those who have acrophobia or some other bug-phobia which biases them against bugzilla |
| 14:59 |
|
chris_n |
kf: tnx for the help |
| 15:00 |
|
chris_n |
arachnophobia, rather |
| 15:01 |
|
wizzyrea |
I would create a bug with the right status, and the exact same title as your RFC on the wiki, then link it to your fulltext on the wiki. |
| 15:02 |
|
kf |
chris_n: I offered to help - now I have to live with it ;) |
| 15:02 |

read magnus' suggestion as an improvement to the layout and clarity of the wiki part of an RFC post |
| 15:04 |
|
chris_n |
not so much as a rework of the in-place procedure |
| 15:04 |
|
Brooke |
*nod* |
| 15:04 |

Brooke |
If I could do one thing to this community |
| 15:04 |

wizzyrea |
definitely the template could be improved. |
| 15:05 |
|

I'd change the default in people's heads from OR to AND |

|

chris_n: well put - i'm not really in favor of moving thing from bugzilla or replicating information - just making the wiki "better" |
| 15:06 |
|
Brooke |
I must know what's inside!!!1 |

wizzyrea |
I know for a fact that the RFC template was literally a 5 minute job. |
| 15:08 |
|
wizzyrea |
so certainly it could be made better. |
| 15:08 |
|
chris_n |
the real "challenge" here is getting folks to actually *use* whatever system... and for starters they have to take time to find and read the existing docs |
| 15:08 |
|
Brooke |
bollocks. it was bowling pins, but the box smelt like chocolate and coffee. |

| 15:15 |
|
thd |
Brooke: the default in my head has always been AND. |
| 15:17 |
|
magnus |
anyway, i think a form would be friendlier then the plain ol' template for adding RFCs to the wiki - and the template already duplicates info that should be in bugzilla... |
| 15:17 |
|
Brooke |
*nod* |
| 15:18 |
|
chris_n |
magnus: i wonder if the form could be setup to post relevant info to an associated bug in BZ upon posting to the wiki? |
| 15:18 |
|
chris_n |
that might add a level of abstraction for the fearful, yet ensure the process was still followed |
| 15:19 |
|
magnus |
chris_n: that sounds like a lot of work - you'd need to keep the info synced too - better to keep it in one place, methinks |
| 15:20 |
|
Brooke |
magnus- is there an automated way to sync the information? |
| 15:20 |
|
* chris_n |
doesn't think we can get away from enh bugs for RFC's |
| 15:20 |
|
magnus |
Brooke: not that I know of, but it should be possible to pull the info into the wiki |
| 15:21 |
|
wizzyrea |
question: why does it matter, if all that is in the wiki RFC is the narrative of the feature? |
| 15:21 |
|
* Brooke |
thinks that the user stands a better chance of seeing their enhancement through the more effort one puts into the process, but admits that "improper" procedure is better than no flow of information. |
| 15:21 |
|
wizzyrea |
why not keep the nuts and bolts of it in bz |
| 15:21 |
|
Brooke |
it matters from a usability standpoint |
| 15:22 |
|
Brooke |
and arguably from a long term quality standpoint, as well |
| 15:24 |
|
wizzyrea |
when I say nuts and bolts, I mean things that bz already asks for |
| 15:25 |
|
wizzyrea |
expected date. version. All that needs to be in the bug is the link to the wiki |

and I feel guilty too, because I have not commented on the rfc's - asked questions |

perhaps we don't have so much discussion, because we don't have many questions, or because the proposed features seem ok to us |

that's my problem too |

or does git take care of all of that in a transparent fashion? |

very misleading news headling in the Koha Planet section of www.koha-fr.org |

the article is about the wiki page for tracking the integration efforts of Harley into Koha |

I got asked about that today. Whether all harley code would be in 3.4. I fudged as I'm not sure. |
| 16:50 |

no one knows for certain (expect perhaps chris), but hopefully we can get all the gems integrated by April 22 |

Why does every document on Ariel always have to be resized to 8.5"x11"? (I know it's not a Koha question, but there's actually a chance that someone here might know) |
| 17:29 |
|
jcamins |
Does Gitorious allow you to set up repositories so that multiple people can push to the individual repository? |
| 17:29 |
|
Brooke |
so it can print on standard paper? |
| 17:29 |
|
|
hdl left #koha |

jcamins |
Brooke: but documents from ILLiad print properly, and without the ridiculous amount of whitespace around the edges that make printing 2-up impossible. |
| 17:31 |
|
Brooke |
fine then my hunch that it's just to annoy you was correct :P |

| 18:52 |
|
slef |
how can we track status of rfcs? |
| 18:53 |
|
gmcharlt |
I'll summarize some points from that release plan since chris doesn't have easy copy-and-paste |
| 18:53 |
|
chris |
I will update any rfcs I have merged code for |
| 18:53 |
|
chris |
The rest is up to you guys to sort out |
| 18:53 |
|
gmcharlt |
1. all patches should have at least one signoff before it hits RM (except for trival patches); preferably two, one from QA manager and one from someones |
| 18:53 |
|
gmcharlt |
2. a patches should refer to a bug number |
| 18:54 |
|
gmcharlt |
3. branches will be merged into master after testing |
| 18:54 |
|
nengard |
would it be helpful if people who put up RFCs include a bug/enhancement for it so that that can be the number associated with them both (rfc and patch) ? |
| 18:54 |
|
wizzyrea |
and he's also logging his work at http://koha-releasemanagement.branchable.com/ |
| 18:54 |
|
gmcharlt |
4. chris will make exceptions if he feels are needed |
| 18:54 |
|
chris |
Yes |

ok, so that leaves in-discussion, needs work, help, not for 3.4 and what else? |
| 18:54 |
|
paul_p |
slef: good question. |
| 18:54 |
|
hdl |
nengard: maybe cross reference could be good |
| 18:54 |
|
chris |
Rule 2 makes tracking rfc possible |
| 18:55 |
|
nengard |
awesome |
| 18:55 |
|
chris |
And rule 2 I won't make many exceptions for |
| 18:55 |
|
thd |
slef: you can subscribe an email address to specific pages in the wiki and specific bugs in bugzilla for updates. |
| 18:55 |
|
nengard |
so - if you write and rfc report a bug/enhancement and put a link to that on your rfc for the rest of us to help with tracking :) |
| 18:55 |
|
LBA |
nengard: ++ |
| 18:55 |
|
gmcharlt |
nengard: yes, RFCs should have a corresopnding bug (or bugs, a big RFC could consist of several discrete features) |
| 18:55 |
|
wizzyrea |
goes both ways: put a link in your bug to your RFC as well |
| 18:55 |
|
paul_p |
chris, foundations like lucene have a roadmap displaying "will be" "maybe", "could be" in the next release on the roadmap. Do you think it could be a good thing ? |
| 18:55 |
|
slef |
thd: can you sub to/watch a category? |
| 18:55 |
|
chris |
Every patch its bug and every bug its patch |
| 18:56 |
|
paul_p |
(or is it eclipse foundation ?) |

chris |
Or else ! |

thd |
slef: I am not certain about categories. |

|
chris |
I might say no tho |
| 18:57 |
|
chris |
:) |
| 18:57 |
|
hdl |
chris : multiple patch can refer to one bug |
| 18:57 |
|
chris |
But the proof is in the pudding |
| 18:58 |
|
gmcharlt |
hdl: that's not a problem |
| 18:58 |
|
hdl |
should all of them have the same bug attached ? |
| 18:58 |
|
paul_p |
(the proof is in the pudding ???) |
| 18:58 |
|
hdl |
Some patch will fix other bugs. |
| 18:58 |
|
chris |
hdl: yes |
| 18:58 |
|
nengard |
paul_p it means that if it's good code he'll put it in |
| 18:58 |
|
chris |
List them all |
| 18:58 |
|
nengard |
once he sees the proof that it's good stuff |
| 18:58 |
|
hdl |
So there should be branch for the bug. |
| 18:58 |
|
thd |
paul_p: There must be an equivalent expression in French. |
| 18:59 |
|
hdl |
maybe a link to the branch exposed could help.... |
| 18:59 |
|
LBA |
Chris, might you say yes to the concept at RFC stage? |
| 18:59 |
|
paul_p |
(gotcha, thx) |
| 18:59 |
|
gmcharlt |
nengard: and proof is easier to come by if we collectively commit to reviewing, testing, and signoff on each other's patches |
| 18:59 |
|
chris |
I make branches for every bug yes |
| 18:59 |
|
slef |
thd: something to do with souffles IIRC |
| 18:59 |
|
chris |
LBA: no |
| 18:59 |
|
cait |
I think the more information the better |
| 18:59 |
|
hdl |
Should we add that as a remark ? |
| 18:59 |
|
nengard |
gmcharlt++ |
| 18:59 |
|
chris |
I might say not for this release |
| 18:59 |

chris |

of course |
| 19:00 |
|
LBA |
what's the best I can hope for (as a client contracting with a developer) in terms of what kind of responses my developer might get to his or her RFP? |
| 19:00 |
|
chris |
Ill ask people |
| 19:01 |
|
cait |
no regression |
| 19:01 |
|
chris |
Like I'm doing with analytical stuff |
| 19:01 |
|
paul_p |
chris, you'll ask ppl before of after it's submitted ? |
| 19:01 |
|
slef |
LBA: yippee, please do? |
| 19:01 |
|
paul_p |
if after => pain for the guy who did the job |
| 19:01 |
|
chris |
Not my worry |
| 19:02 |
|
paul_p |
if before => that's exactly what I want to "implement" in our workflow ! |
| 19:02 |
|
chris |
I'm rm not god |
| 19:02 |
|
paul_p |
chris : ??? |
| 19:02 |
|
thd |
Like committing, ask early and ask often |
| 19:02 |
|
cait |
before will not ensure good code |
| 19:02 |
|
paul_p |
ok, got it |
| 19:02 |
|
chris |
Others should comment on it before it exists |
| 19:02 |
|
slef |
so no ageed-in-principle for 3.4? |
| 19:02 |
|
chris |
I care once it exists |
| 19:03 |
|
chris |
I will certainly say things sound like a good idea |
| 19:03 |
|
jwagner_ |
chris, I have a problem with that workflow -- if we have customers who have contracted for that work, we have to do it and submit it. |
| 19:03 |
|
paul_p |
I still feel something is missing in our workflow... |
| 19:03 |

* wasabi |
waves |
| 19:03 |
|
nengard |
as a community we can agree in principle with the idea or suggest tweaks/changes - but i see what chris is saying - he job is to evaluate coda |
| 19:03 |
|
jwagner_ |
They would like some assurance that it will be included in a future release. |
| 19:03 |

paul_p |
chris, that's 2 differents things ! |
| 19:04 |
|
chris |
What if it has sql injections? |
| 19:04 |
|
hdl |
but even then... you could say no |
| 19:05 |
|
slef |
it's up to the devs to make it good enough for inclusion |
| 19:05 |
|
jwagner_ |
chris, two different problems -- the concept and the actual code |
| 19:05 |
|
wizzyrea |
fix and resubmit? |
| 19:05 |
|
paul_p |
checking if it's technically OK => we all agree. |
| 19:05 |
|
jwagner_ |
The concept could be accepted, but the code might need work. |
| 19:05 |
|
chris |
Yes |
| 19:05 |
|
nengard |
i don't think that the RM should get the only say in what concept is accepted |

that's what I'm trying to understand...where do concepts get accepted? |
| 19:06 |
|
slef |
build consensus around the rfc |
| 19:06 |
|
hdl |
how Who ? |
| 19:06 |
|
hdl |
When ? |
| 19:06 |
|
nengard |
you put up the rfc, the community comments and if the comments are positive the concept is accepted - but if you code it like crap chris gets to throw it out |
| 19:06 |
|
paul_p |
slef, OK. So how do we build consensus ? |

It would certainly make developers lives easier if there was some kind of criteria we could code towards that would make our developments strong candidates for inclusion |

much work has been done |

should we suspend the meeting until chris is fully with us ? |

So it could be quite a heavy task to rebase on a day to base those branches. |

gmcharlt |
paul_p: we should - this is a discussion that cannot properly take place without chris |

paul_p |
gmcharlt, yep, that's my opinion too |

should we go back to chris_n for his update on 3.2? |

yes |

about this question: i think cherry picking patches from master to stable is one of the pains hdl had with 3.0 RMaint. |
| 19:13 |
|
hdl |
chris_n what is your plan when HEAD will diverge from 3.2 ? |
| 19:13 |
|
chris_n |
I plan to release ever 30 days unless there are no patches to push |
| 19:13 |
|
paul_p |
because there are too much patches on master, and new features & all that stuff |
| 19:13 |
|
chris_n |
so Nov 22, Dec 22, etc |
| 19:14 |
|
paul_p |
so I think it would be better to have patches on stable cherry picked to master |
| 19:14 |
|
chris_n |
hdl: I plan to cross that bridge when I come to it :) |

paul_p: 3.2.x does not need to be all things to all users; with chris' time-based release for 3.4, focuses on bugfixes for 3.2.x is fine |

magnus joined #koha |

|
gmcharlt |
paul_p: another way of stating - if a particular patch is too difficult to cherry-pick into 3.2.x, it is likely too much of a new feature to stick into 3.2.x with 3.4 coming in spring 2011 |

gmcharlt, how I see it : when there will be X00 patches in master, that will be a BIG deal for chris_n to deal with them. hdl had this problem for 3.0.x |
| 19:17 |
|
paul_p |
do you (all) know if project like Debian on linux does like this ? I thought they had patches for stable & patches for "master", and they were differents |
| 19:17 |
|
Brooke |
early submission means shouldn't be X00 patches at a given moment, no? |
| 19:17 |
|
thd |
paul_p: Do you mean too many to examine? |
| 19:17 |
|
gmcharlt |
paul_p: chris_n can pick and choose; there is no obligation to backport everything from HED to 3.2.x |
| 19:17 |
|
hdl |
I would propose that bugfixes on 3.2 would be submit by companies on both branches when they diverge. |

paul_p |
gmcharlt, what is the problem with having patches for 3.2.x and cherry picking them to head ? |
| 19:17 |
|
slef |
paul_p: depends what for. security has its own patches for stable. |
| 19:17 |
|
jwagner_ |
Brooke, submission can depend on client approval, so there might very well be many at once. |
| 19:18 |
|
hdl |
And chris_n would be able to ask for someone for signoff |
| 19:18 |
|
chris_n |
paul_p: once things diverge to that point, the submitter will be responsible to ensure that the patch merges |
| 19:18 |
|
thd |
hdl: We actually did that at one time in general. |
| 19:18 |
|
chris_n |
before submitting for 3.2.x |
| 19:18 |
|
* Brooke |
is having trouble understanding why clients are easier to talk to than Release Managers |
| 19:18 |
|
chris_n |
but that is really always the case |
| 19:18 |
|
chris |
there should never ever ever ever ever bet x00 patches at once again |

( Brooke becaus managers will be managers ;Ã ) ) |

|
jwagner_ |
chris_n, can you clarify the process? Patches for 3.2.x also go into the line for 3.4? |
| 19:19 |
|
thd |
paul_p: You were release maintainer when patches were being submitted to the current branch in addition to HEAD/master. |
| 19:19 |
|
chris |
so now i can get asked 50 questions at once nd have a chance to respond |
| 19:19 |
|
* jwagner_ |
is getting confused |
| 19:19 |
|
chris |
jwagner_: patches should be submitted on master |
| 19:19 |
|
chris |
if a bug exists in 3.2.x it exists in master |
| 19:20 |
|
slef |
I doubt clients would want to break community development. |
| 19:20 |
|
paul_p |
thd, we used CVS when I was RMaint, that's much different (and we had not so many contributors as we have today) |
| 19:20 |
|
chris |
and then pulled back to 3.2.x |
| 19:20 |
|
gmcharlt |
moving on - if people have a problem with chris_n's proposed management of 3.2.x, let's take it to the mailing lists |

Restarting the Koha copyright license upgrade ballot process for Koha 3.4 previously postponed from the Koha Copyright License Upgrade Ballot IRC Meeting - 13 July 2010. |

During KohaCon I added content to the wiki to restart the license upgrade ballot process after KohaCon |
| 19:21 |

chris_n |
paul_p: then we can have all of the discussion necessary :) |

To clarify, the page shows three licenses. There were others being considered, as I recall (LGPL and Apache) -- should they be added to this page? |

jwagner, I think only options were: 1) as now, 2) GPLv+ 3) AGPLv3+ |

LGPL would be a wierd one for a web app. |

LGPL -- |

slef |
robinHome: would it gain *anything* at all? |
| 19:28 |
|
thd |
jwagner: we can discuss anything but neither LGPL nor Apache are permissible upgrades from GPL 2, invoked with the or later version option |
| 19:28 |
|
gmcharlt |
ok, I think we've exhausted this one (discussion of licenses can go on wiki and list) |
| 19:28 |
|
robinHome |
slef: I don't think it would. It would effectively be GPLv2, but with unused bits added. |
| 19:28 |
|
gmcharlt |
moving onward, four items left |
| 19:29 |
|
gmcharlt |
I'm going to pick the easiest one first to start: |
| 19:29 |
|
gmcharlt |
jqueryui adoption instead of YUI |
| 19:29 |
|
slef |
sounds ok to me... implications? |
| 19:29 |
|
gmcharlt |
this is a proposal from paul_p (?) to replace use of YUI with jQuery/UI |
| 19:29 |
|
paul_p |
not sure it's the easiest one, but it will be the less hard-discuted one ;-) |
| 19:29 |
|
slef |
can it be done at tt-switchover time? |
| 19:30 |
|
paul_p |
gmcharlt, yep, I suggested that. But have no specific plan. Just wondering |
| 19:30 |
|
paul_p |
I feel it's a good idea. |
| 19:30 |
|
gmcharlt |
from my point of view, does have advantages, primarily because it would simplify things |
| 19:30 |
|
wizzyrea |
owen, do you have a feeling about abandoning YUI |
| 19:30 |
|
gmcharlt |
and I think jQuery/UI is up to the task |
| 19:30 |
|
robinHome |
Yeah, I'm quite fond of the idea. |
| 19:30 |
|
paul_p |
BibLibre devs complains about having 2 differents toolkits |
| 19:30 |
|
owen |
I'm for abandoning YUI for everything bug the CSS grids layout |
| 19:30 |
|
jwagner_ |
I think jquery is the better path for the future |
| 19:30 |
|
paul_p |
owen, bug ? or but ? |
| 19:31 |
|
gmcharlt |
ok, so how about this: it is an open question whether a complete switchover could be done in 3.4 |
| 19:31 |
|
owen |
everything but the CSS grids layout |
| 19:31 |
|
gmcharlt |
so I suggest that we introduce jQuery/UI |
| 19:31 |
|
gmcharlt |
and pick a particular widget to replace first |
| 19:31 |
|
paul_p |
owen, why ? isn't there a css grid with jqueryui ? |
| 19:31 |
|
robinHome |
One thing (I think) worth looking at at the same time is making Koha work with current jquery. It's stuck on an old version at the moment. |
| 19:31 |
|
owen |
paul_p: No, because jQuery is all JavaScript, not CSS |
| 19:32 |
|
owen |
I agree with gmcharlt on replacing particular widgets first |
| 19:32 |
|
gmcharlt |
owen: any suggestions, off-hand, about what to try first? |
| 19:32 |
|
hdl |
could also be done with some performance improvements of javascript( putting javascript at teh end of pages for instanceà |
| 19:33 |
|
owen |
Well, we actually need to merge some non-UI jquery things to jUI as well, so I thought we'd start with tabs |
| 19:33 |
|
gmcharlt |
hdl: good idea, but also a different matter - orthogonal to jQuery/UI replacing YUI |
| 19:33 |
|
owen |
The jUI autocomplete widget is out of beta, so that might be something to start with |
| 19:33 |
|
owen |
I think we might put off doing buttons/menus until the jUI menu widget comes out of beta |
| 19:33 |
|
hdl |
(yes... But should this be done on the same branch ?) |
| 19:33 |
|
gmcharlt |
owen: autocomplete sounds perfect to start - only a few places use it |
| 19:34 |
|
gmcharlt |
OK, moving on |
| 19:34 |
|
gmcharlt |
RFCs agreement workflow (discussion about the workflow for RFCs to be accepted/validated) |
| 19:35 |
|
chris |
oh look theres that thing i said was on the agenda for later |
| 19:35 |
|
paul_p |
back to previous discussion ;-) |
| 19:36 |
|
paul_p |
according to me there are 2 differents things : |
| 19:36 |
|
paul_p |
- is a code properly written => RM role, we all agree |
| 19:36 |
|
paul_p |
(I mean technically OK) |
| 19:37 |
|
paul_p |
- is the feature something we want into Koha => we must decide before it's written if yes or no |
| 19:37 |
|
paul_p |
because it's silly to invest a lot of time if the feature is not accepted at the end. Everybody will have pain with that |
| 19:37 |
|
Brooke |
consensus before a write = less risk of a drop |
| 19:37 |
|
jwagner_ |
paul_p++ |
| 19:37 |

Brooke |
just do it is nice but you're gambling on inclusion |

rfc author usually leads consensus-building |
| 19:38 |
|
slef |
but any supporter could |
| 19:38 |
|
chris |
still will not result in the feature being guaranteed acceptance in a release |
| 19:39 |

paul_p |
but until now, rfc resulted in only few responses |
| 19:39 |

chris |
i dont know how i can say this any other way |

YOU CANT HAVE GUARANTEES |

paul_p: speak for your own rfcs! |
| 19:39 |
|
paul_p |
chris, I fully agree with that (guaranted acceptance in a release) |
| 19:39 |
|
cait |
so what guarantees do you expect? |
| 19:40 |
|
paul_p |
but we (community) should be able to say "yes it's a good feature" or "no, it's not a good feature". |
| 19:40 |
|
slef |
we can say that |
| 19:40 |
|
paul_p |
s/it's/it will/ |

cait |
I think if someone has a problem with an rfc he will speak up - I really like the proposed things for acq and serials |
| 19:40 |
|
chris_n |
well developed and promoted RFCs are a must; however, people participation is a must also |
| 19:40 |
|
LBA |
I don't think anyone expects a guarantee of inclusion in next release but a tentative yes or no is important |
| 19:40 |
|
jwagner_ |
Sponsors should be able to say if it's a good feature |

I think that RFC only about "feature" you can say: I whant you opinion (on dev e general list) and if there aren't disagree, the answer is "the next version" |
| 19:42 |
|
hdl |
(too seldom in fact) |
| 19:43 |
|
wizzyrea |
well a dedicated week or month where RFC's that could concievably be delivered in time for the next release are discussed |
| 19:43 |
|
tajoli |
But for core change (like solr), we need a vote |
| 19:43 |
|
wizzyrea |
they can come out any time within the cycle |

how many RFC have you posted ? |

gmcharlt |
note that there are technical mechanisms to solve at least a couple of the social problems |

the syspref mechanism being the obvious example |

hdl |
gmcharlt: can you detail ? |
| 19:44 |
|
sekjal |
since there is no guarantee that any RFC will be part of any release, perhaps the RFC section of the wiki should be decoupled from any release number |
| 19:44 |
|
gmcharlt |
hdl: well, consider Zebra vs. NoZebra |
| 19:45 |
|
gmcharlt |
two search engines, both (more or less) supported |
| 19:45 |

paul_p |
sekjal, that's what I did with RFC last week, but can probably still be improved |

hence some disagreement can be dealt with by accommodate paralel implementations of the same functionality |

Since in the end it was proved that Nozebra could not provide users with the same features. |
| 19:46 |
|
gmcharlt |
and some things can be handled with well designed architecture |
| 19:47 |

So NoZebra became unsupported. |

that is a pain for users : no one has announced "NoZebra is no more supported", and it's not fair for users |

write a bugfix, write a regression test for it |

proposal to form a Technical Committee + request this discussion be postponed due to short notice at a time when many Kohacon10 participants were travelling |
| 19:59 |

I think there needs to be some one/group that takes responsibility to look beyond the current release and identify areas that need improvement, that need attention, and that people are willing to sponsor -- not for the next release but for the one, two, three releases after that. |

jwagner_, any vendor, or any library employed ppl |

paul_p, correct |

paul_p |
(not sure my last sentence was correct english ;-) ) |

owen |
A technical committee can't enforce their "vision" because it all depends on who funds the development |
| 20:12 |
|
cfouts |
people who are looking at architectural issues and working to build consensus about how to contribute in the present with an eye toward the future |
| 20:12 |
|
jwagner_ |
owen, yes, but a group could steer and encourage development |
| 20:12 |
|
chris_n |
so what does such a committee benefit over what we have now? |
| 20:12 |
|
LBA |
vision beyond next release still doesn't get a developer what they might need for their client (but I'm okay with that in the spirit of staying flexible as new needs/technology arise). |
| 20:12 |
|
cfouts |
chris_n: attention |
| 20:12 |
|
thd |
cfouts: What about our existing forums is deficient for developing that vision? |
| 20:12 |
|
owen |
jwagner_: steer? Encourage, I suppose. |
| 20:12 |
|
cfouts |
they're too diffuse |
| 20:12 |
|
chris_n |
cfouts: post to the list and then bump, bump, bump |
| 20:12 |
|
paul_p |
owen, that's where I disagree : if I have a contract signed and a technical committee says "no", then i can go back to my customer & negociate/find a good solution |
| 20:13 |
|
wizzyrea |
for one: lots and lots of cooks. |
| 20:13 |
|
cfouts |
there's a wiki and mailing lists and irc and bugzilla and whatever. |
| 20:13 |
|
owen |
paul_p: What I mean is that a technical committee can't imagine a new feature and then expect someone to develop it |
| 20:13 |
|
LBA |
I think it isn't a problem with the venues for getting feedback and planning ahead, the problem is that there needs to be a guarantee of some kind of response. |
| 20:13 |
|
paul_p |
owen, agreed (I may have misunderstood you) |
| 20:14 |
|
jwagner_ |
owen, I think that would be part of a committee's job, actually |
| 20:14 |
|
tajoli |
No, but it does a valutation |
| 20:14 |
|
davi |
cfouts, count votes on all that medias |
| 20:14 |
|
thd |
wizzyrea: many cooks make a nice feast for everyone |
| 20:14 |
|
Brooke |
erm, I think it's more a problem of Taylorism v. Organic governance |
| 20:14 |
|
dpk |
Other projects have annual meetings (like KohaCon) these kind of strategy issues are dealt with face to face |
| 20:14 |
|
wizzyrea |
too many cooks spoil the soup :P |
| 20:14 |
|
cfouts |
davi: I don't have infinite time to look at all those venues |
| 20:14 |
|
owen |
jwagner_: How? You would have a committee instruct PTFS on what they should develop next? |
| 20:14 |
|
davi |
cfouts, formalise it |
| 20:14 |
|
paul_p |
but when a sponsored (major) dev arrive, a tech committee or something like that could be handy to help with our relations with the library. |
| 20:14 |
|
Brooke |
cfouts: each user his venue |
| 20:14 |
|
chris_n |
cfouts: that is why people need to start using wiki+BZ and vote |
| 20:14 |
|
cfouts |
davi: that's what we're talking about |
| 20:15 |
|
hdl |
owen: there are structural work that needs to be done. |
| 20:15 |
|
paul_p |
dpk++ |
| 20:15 |
|
jwagner_ |
We would certainly encourage our customers who are interested in sponsoring development to look at a committee's recommendations. |
| 20:15 |
|
jwagner_ |
The customers decide what gets developed, not PTFS |
| 20:15 |
|
hdl |
That could improve the work for everyone |
| 20:15 |
|
chris_n |
this is a basic people problem and no amount of committee-ing it will fix it |
| 20:15 |
|
thd |
wizzyrea: I know the adage but the adage applied to free software is that free software is bad |
| 20:15 |
|
hdl |
this should not be the task or the will of one company. |
| 20:15 |
|
davi |
chris_n, ++ |
| 20:15 |
|
chris_n |
jwagner_: encourage them to look at the RFC's on wiki |
| 20:15 |
|
paul_p |
chris_n, disagreeing partially |
| 20:16 |
|
paul_p |
I don't want to add bureaucracy, I want to add reliability |
| 20:16 |
|
sekjal |
fundamental problem: no one in the community can make anyone else do anything (except customers directing their vendors). we're all free to do as we please. hopefully, most of us choose to cooperate as best we can |
| 20:16 |
|
chris_n |
paul_p: and with no enforcement mechanism, how do these propositions help? |
| 20:16 |
|
davi |
paul_p, ++ |
| 20:16 |
|
jwagner_ |
sekjal, that's the problem -- HOW do we best cooperate? |
| 20:16 |
|
Brooke |
sekjal that's a feature, not a bug |
| 20:16 |
|
paul_p |
jwagner_++ |
| 20:16 |
|
wizzyrea |
that's not the point really (or certainly not what I meant). |
| 20:16 |
|
chris_n |
paul_p: we cannot *make* people do what we may think they should |
| 20:17 |
|
davi |
votes to the power |
| 20:17 |
|
slef |
back, reading |
| 20:17 |
|
cfouts |
who is proposing to make anyone do anything, here? |
| 20:17 |
|
paul_p |
chris_n, whan the linux kernel decide to add a new platform, there is someone that decides this strategic decision isn't it ? |
| 20:17 |
|
tajoli |
I think that to cooperate at best we need to do evaluation on what is Koha |
| 20:17 |
|
gmcharlt |
paul_p: nope |
| 20:17 |
|
chris_n |
so unless the "committee" has the authority to say " we do this", it is little better than another voice in the crowd |
| 20:17 |
|
thd |
paul_p: Reliability as such may not be available but you could have much additional confidence which is less than reliability. |
| 20:17 |
|
chris |
paul_p: no there isnt |
| 20:17 |
|
gmcharlt |
paul_p: what happens is that somebody starts hacking together support for a new platform |
| 20:17 |
|
gmcharlt |
gets it working |
| 20:18 |
|
gmcharlt |
and submits it up the chain |
| 20:18 |
|
tajoli |
Is softeware for library with few reasoures or not ? |
| 20:18 |
|
chris |
and if it flies, it flies |
| 20:18 |
|
hdl |
chris_n: we could work on building little workgroups and build concensus |
| 20:18 |
|
gmcharlt |
obviously it's in their intrest to communicate well during the process |
| 20:18 |
|
hdl |
in that group |
| 20:18 |
|
davi |
hdl ++ |
| 20:18 |
|
hdl |
for the purpose of the group. |
| 20:18 |
|
hdl |
And then... step by step enlarge. |
| 20:18 |
|
thd |
hdl++ |
| 20:18 |
|
chris_n |
communication is one of the core problems here as well |
| 20:18 |
|
hdl |
But there are structural needs. |
| 20:18 |
|
davi |
hdl++ |
| 20:18 |
|
paul_p |
chris_n, agreed |
| 20:19 |
|
wizzyrea |
certainly if someone said "hey, i have an idea and I want a few folks to help me work it out" would people volunteer? |
| 20:19 |
|
davi |
nobody is forced to volunter |
| 20:19 |
|
cfouts |
example: the transition to using an ORM is a platform change that no one entity is going to do or pay for |
| 20:19 |
|
jwagner_ |
wizzyrea, I think yes, if there was a defined process for doing so |
| 20:19 |
|
tajoli |
sometime yes, often no |
| 20:19 |
|
chris_n |
but again, we can only encourage communication, not enforce it |
| 20:19 |
|
jwagner_ |
But right now there are a _lot_ of defined ways, and people get confused |
| 20:19 |
|
thd |
hdl: I think the problem is the degree of formalism. |
| 20:19 |
|
Brooke |
chris_n go look at Brook's law. This is growing pains. |
| 20:19 |
|
paul_p |
cfouts++ |
| 20:19 |
|
cfouts |
it's something that needs a long-term vision, backed by research, and a plan developed as to how it could be implemented |
| 20:20 |
|
hdl |
cfouts: but everyone agrees it is needed. |
| 20:20 |
|
chris |
i dont |
| 20:20 |
|
jwagner_ |
cfouts++ |

hdl |
+ db structure redesing |
| 20:20 |
|
hdl |
(or at least work) |
| 20:20 |
|
paul_p |
chris, can you explain more ? |
| 20:20 |
|
davi |
cfouts, no, just do it, and improve it |
| 20:20 |
|
Brooke |
so speaking of long range vision, I've 23ish responses to my 3 word summaries of Koha >.> <.< |
| 20:20 |
|
hdl |
davi HUGE work. |
| 20:21 |
|
davi |
well, or do it or do not talk about it |
| 20:21 |
|
cfouts |
davi, I don't think you realize the scale of this |
| 20:21 |
|
dpk |
Sounds like a two-year plan for Koha development should be a major goal of the next KohaCon - with people prepping ahead of time. |
| 20:21 |
|
thd |
hdl: We could go further than what we do at present without going so far we have a model which is not a free software model |
| 20:21 |
|
paul_p |
chris, (we know you disagree with this idea. But i prefer hard discussion to seeing you staying silent) |
| 20:21 |
|
davi |
talking and not doing does not help as much |
| 20:21 |
|
jwagner_ |
dpk, I don't think this can wait another year. There's too much in the pipeline now. |
| 20:21 |
|
thd |
cfouts++ |
| 20:22 |
|
wizzyrea |
so, as a reference point, how was the switch to zebra decided? |
| 20:22 |
|
paul_p |
cfouts++ |
| 20:22 |
|
* chris_n |
has seen little discussion on the mailing list concerning either ORM or db restructuring |
| 20:22 |
|
paul_p |
wizzyrea, joshua proposed it, with some (few) benchmarks comparing with lucene, and it has been decided. |
| 20:22 |
|
chris |
no it wasnt decided then |
| 20:22 |
|
chris_n |
if it is so important, why are is it not being promoted in available forums? |
| 20:22 |
|
cfouts |
which is why koha-devel does not strike me as an effective forum for that kind of planning |
| 20:22 |
|
chris |
we did a lot more testing |
| 20:23 |
|
chris |
and tumer did a lot of testing |
| 20:23 |
|
jwagner_ |
I've seen discussion on the mailing list about database restructuring. |
| 20:23 |
|
chris |
and it still wasnt totally decided until the hackfest |
| 20:23 |
|
dpk |
jwagner_, fair enough. |
| 20:23 |
|
paul_p |
(yep, wanted to add we worked on this during the 1st KohaCon) |
| 20:23 |
|
chris_n |
jwager_: examples? |
| 20:24 |
|
jwagner_ |
chris_n, examples of what? listserv discussion? Can't give you specifics right now, but I definitely remember a lot of traffic recently about MySQL, Postgres, etc. |
| 20:24 |
|
chris |
thats database abstraction, thats a whole different thing |
| 20:24 |
|
chris |
to restructuring |
| 20:24 |
|
chris_n |
ahh... db agnosticism is not what I call restructuring, sorry |
| 20:24 |
|
chris |
but yeah we are getting off topic |
| 20:24 |
|
chris_n |
<snap> |

|
chris |
i think meetings like this, we a more defined agenda |
| 20:25 |
|
hdl |
??? |
| 20:25 |
|
chris |
are a good place to discuss things like ORM |
| 20:25 |
|
chris |
with discussion summarised to the wiki and koha-devel |
| 20:25 |
|
jwagner_ |
I suggest a special meeting with this as the main/sole agenda item |

...who decides who decides we need to have a meeting about a meeting... |

Why is this being complicated? |
| 20:28 |

thd |
jwagmer_: Those with an interest do the work. |

chris |
so its up to the organiser to promote their meeting/topic |
| 20:28 |
|
thd |
oops jwagner |
| 20:28 |
|
hdl |
slef: because it seems that whenever a proposition is done, ppl are suspicious. |
| 20:29 |
|
chris_n |
so why doesn't someone who feels the urgency of a move to ORM do a writeup to the list and propose a meeting time? |
| 20:29 |
|
chris_n |
same for DB restructuring |

I think we should talk about long term things at the irc meetings too - and have proposals etc. on the wiki - what is stopping us from that? |

but the problem is that support for icu.xml in zebra is rather.... poor |
| 20:49 |
|
hdl |
to say the less |
| 20:49 |
|
thd |
hdl: I had presumed that the issue was for some set of characters within ICU. |
| 20:49 |

hdl |
No... All of them |

for instance |
| 20:49 |

hdl |
*stoire brings nothing |
| 20:50 |
|
paul_p |
thd, my main complaint against zebra/icu is that it dies without saying anything worth when there is an invalid utf8 char or diacritic in the biblio |
| 20:50 |
|
hdl |
and if you search for complete subfield... you will do a search on word. |
| 20:51 |
|
chris |
im sure there are bugs in zebra |
| 20:51 |
|
slef |
paul_p: koha also dies with a confused error when there is invalid utf8 in a biblio, at least in 3.0 in some situations. :-/ |
| 20:51 |
|
hdl |
a... position in field is also deprecated. |
| 20:51 |
|
paul_p |
thd, for Aix-Marseille universities, 700k biblios, we had 14 that were invalid, and needed more than 3 days just to reindex : because Koha can display them, so they seemed OK |
| 20:51 |
|
chris |
i just dont think solr is a drop in replacement, until it can do sru/sw and z3950 etc |
| 20:51 |
|
hdl |
slef: because of MARC::File::XML |
| 20:51 |
|
thd |
hdl: For Z39.50/SRU server purposes as opposed to local indexing do you not have confidence that Index Data would find a fix with an appropriate inducement? |
| 20:52 |

hdl: stop & head to your bed. we will organize another meeting on IRC for that. and I think we will agree. That's not what I fear the most ! |
| 21:00 |
|
chris |
i still think the dual path is the way to go, and we deprecate zebra when solr provides everything it does and more |
| 21:01 |
|
hdl |
And z3950 searching is not open on standard configuraiton |
| 21:01 |
|
thd |
paul_p: What do you fear the most? |
| 21:01 |
|
gmcharlt |
agreed - non-ICU zebra, although more tedious to config, is not subject to the same sorts of problems that you are running into |
| 21:01 |

thd |
hdl: Not open? |

| 21:04 |

thd |
hdl: Where? |
| 21:07 |

hdl |
solr.biblibre.com iirc. But maybe it was actually on a local machine. |

I saw that. |
| 21:08 |

thd |
hdl: Did you note the dependency on CQL-Java from Index Data? |
| 21:09 |
|
hdl |
I have not dived into the code actually. |
| 21:09 |
|
hdl |
But it would look quite a sensible dependency... |
| 21:09 |
|
thd |
hdl: It is all one circular path in the small world of free software library code. |
| 21:09 |
|
hdl |
And I think that Indexdata will maintain that. |

|
hdl |
(better than zebra hopefully) |
| 21:10 |

thd |
hdl: It is newer. |

Index Data recommend JZKit for Java, however, JZKit is missing many features for good Z39.50/SRU. |

New commit(s) kohagit: Fix bug on opac-detail.pl with switch statement <http://git.koha-community.org/[…]19556d927d875cf97> |
| 22:04 |
|
cait |
hm, that's something we wanted to talk about, when do we change copyright statements and how do we do it - I think my changes were too small until now, but still curious about it |
| 22:05 |
|
* chris_n |
counts 5 occurances of perl's switch still in the code |
| 22:05 |
|
chris |
i think there is a patch in the wild from colin |
| 22:05 |
|
chris_n |
rather grep does |
| 22:05 |
|
chris |
im going to find and apply |
| 22:05 |
|
robin |
cait: my thinking is that anything beyond a trivial change, you should add yourself to the copyright. |
| 22:05 |
|
* chris_n |
wonders why it has not been a problem before now |
| 22:06 |
|
chris |
i agree with robin |
| 22:06 |
|
chris |
chris_n: it is most certainly deprecated and we shouldnt be using it |
| 22:06 |
|
chris_n |
oh, I agree |
| 22:06 |
|
cait |
so, what is a trivial change? |
| 22:06 |
|
wizzyrea |
so something like that entire rewrite I did of the install.debian |
| 22:06 |
|
wizzyrea |
I should be on that |
| 22:06 |
|
chris |
yes wizzyrea |
| 22:06 |
|
chris_n |
I'm just wondering about the problematic nature of it |
| 22:06 |
|
chris |
cait: spacing |

* chris_n |
runs perl 10 |
| 22:06 |
|
cait |
hm |
| 22:07 |
|
cait |
take my last 2 patches as example - should I have changed something for those? |
| 22:07 |
|
robin |
cait: yeah, or a typo fix or something I'd consider trivial |
| 22:07 |
|
cait |
I think the second is really too small, perhaps the first? but touching a lot of files |
| 22:07 |
|
cait |
with very small changes |
| 22:07 |
|
chris |
it is changing functionality |
| 22:07 |
|
robin |
there's no hard boundry, but I think as soon as you change behaviour, that's non-trivial |
| 22:07 |
|
wizzyrea |
myself or my institution? |
| 22:07 |
|
chris |
id put parts copyright you |
| 22:07 |
|
chris |
wizzyrea: i dunno know your rules |
| 22:08 |
|
robin |
wizzyrea: it depends on many things |
| 22:08 |
|
wizzyrea |
k |
| 22:08 |
|
chris |
thats between you and your organisation i suspect |
| 22:08 |
|
robin |
wizzyrea: work for hire, for example/ |
| 22:08 |
|
wizzyrea |
depends on many things I understand. ;) |
| 22:08 |
|
robin |
and that also varies by jurisdiction. |
| 22:08 |
|
wizzyrea |
I suspect since it was done on their time, NEKLS should take the copyright, |
| 22:08 |
|
wizzyrea |
which is fine by me |
| 22:08 |
|
robin |
yeah, that's a reasonable approach. |
| 22:09 |
|
robin |
I think it says in my contract that by default things are copyright catalyst. |
| 22:09 |
|
wizzyrea |
not sure I have such a statement in the conditions of my employment |
| 22:09 |
|
cait |
I think nobody has thought about putting something in my contract |
| 22:09 |
|
wizzyrea |
but, it's a courtesy nonetheless |
| 22:10 |
|
robin |
so I put that as the copyright, and usually note somewhere that it was me that wrote it, more to help enquiries from people. |
| 22:10 |
|
robin |
wizzyrea: yeah, in that case it depends on what the law sets as the default for where you are. My conjecture would be that in the US it's copyright your employer by default, in the EU possibly not. |
| 22:10 |
|
wizzyrea |
yea, that seems right something like parts copyright 2010 Northeast Kansas Library System (Liz Rea) |
| 22:11 |
|
chris |
yeah |
| 22:12 |
|
cait |
uh, will have to ask someone at work |
| 22:12 |
|
chris |
that would be just fine |

Colin Campbell: Bug 5105 - Remove use of depreciated Switch module |
| 22:41 |
|
cfouts |
chris: you mentioned during the meeting you'd had a change of preference for using an ORM, is that correct? |
| 22:42 |
|
chris |
no i never was for a full ORM implementation |
| 22:43 |
|
chris |
but i might be persuaded on that, but certainly not before we are running under a persistent environment |
| 22:44 |
|
cfouts |
oh, interesting. I had misunderstood you previously, then,. |
| 22:44 |
|
chris |
im for removing our dependence on mysql |
| 22:44 |
|
cfouts |
I see |
| 22:44 |
|
chris |
an ORM is one way of doing that |
| 22:44 |
|
chris |
but at this point, it would do more harm than good |
| 22:44 |
|
cfouts |
the latest in that camp is adding further motivation |
| 22:44 |
|
chris |
I do like DBIx::Class::Schema though |
| 22:44 |
|
chris |
a lot |
| 22:45 |
|
cfouts |
what about it? |
| 22:45 |
|
chris |
and want to move to that, rather than a .sql file and updatedatabase.pl |
| 22:45 |
|
chris |
its database agnostic |
| 22:45 |
|
chris |
using it, i made a schema from a running koha on mysql |
| 22:45 |
|
chris |
and deployed it on postgres |
| 22:45 |
|
chris |
and it just worked |
| 22:46 |
|
chris |
course it barfed when i tried loading in the sysprefs (because we have some mysqlisms in there) but those are easily fixed |
| 22:46 |

http://search.cpan.org/~frew/D[…]hema/Versioned.pm |
| 22:46 |
|
chris |
is what i really like |
| 22:47 |
|
chris |
i *think* we can use it to get rid of the number clashing we face doing database versioning now |
| 22:47 |
|
chris |
or at least make it less likely |
| 22:47 |
|
cfouts |
that's a hard problem. |
| 22:48 |
|
cfouts |
reducing the number of version increments would help |
| 22:48 |
|
cfouts |
I've heard about the dbic versioning capacity but haven't looked into it |
| 22:48 |
|
cfouts |
I'm concerned about its speed |
| 22:48 |
|
chris_n |
+1 # reducing/easing db versioning |
| 22:48 |
|
cfouts |
dbic, not the versioning |
| 22:49 |
|
chris |
like i say, im not convinced on a total ORM |
| 22:49 |
|
chris |
but we can still use the schema part without using dbic anywhere else |
| 22:49 |
|
chris |
and i do like that about it a lot |
| 22:49 |
|
cfouts |
can you explain that? |
| 22:50 |
|
chris |
you can just create and deploy schemas |
| 22:50 |
|
chris |
and not have to use anything else |
| 22:50 |
|
cfouts |
oh, I see. |
| 22:51 |
|
chris |
it doesnt lock you into using dbic for your db access everywhere like say something like tangram does |
| 22:52 |
|
chris |
sometimes the ORM does daft things, so its nice to be able to choose where to use it |
| 22:52 |
|

thd-away is now known as thd |

slef: are you back? |

chris |
its midnight, so i doubt it |
| 22:54 |
|
chris |
or at least 11pm |
| 22:54 |
|
chris |
:) |
| 22:54 |
|
cfouts |
the two I've looked at enable the user to do direct SQL without much issue, so that doesn't seem to be much of a problem |
| 22:55 |
|
thd |
he had stated that he might be back at a time which would be half an hour ago. |
| 22:55 |
|
cfouts |
the speed issue is difficult, though. I don't think we can deprecate running Koha as a CGI. |
| 22:55 |
|
chris |
yeah |
| 22:55 |
|
chris |
the speed issue is why we dont use ORM on any of our big sites here |
| 22:55 |
|
chris |
(not koha sites) |
| 22:55 |
|
chris |
but things like stuff.co.nz etc |
| 22:56 |
|
chris |
not that i ever expect a koha site to get a fraction of the traffic .. itd be nice if libraries got that popular :-) |
| 22:57 |
|
cfouts |
wily-nily database updates need to be reigned in somehow, though |
| 22:57 |
|
chris |
yup |
| 22:57 |
|
robin |
is 952$x considered repeatable? |
| 22:57 |
|
chris |
pass |
| 22:58 |
|
robin |
hmm. It maps to a DB field, so perhaps not. |
| 22:58 |
|
sekjal |
robin: no, not repeatable |
| 22:58 |
|
sekjal |
according to the MARC framework |
| 22:59 |
|
robin |
oh, I didn't think of looking there. Ta. |
| 22:59 |
|
cfouts |
interesting that using DBIC only for schema management would not conflict with using Rose::DB or another ORM for runtime. |
| 22:59 |
|
chris |
*nod* |
| 22:59 |
|
chris |
im proposing only getting hte schema part going for 3.4 |

with the idea it wont stop anything else, and will at least move us quite a bit closer to not being chained to one db engine |
| 23:01 |
|
* chris_n |
would love to see some other's do testing over MariaDB |
| 23:01 |
|
chris_n |
that one is very much within grasp |
| 23:02 |
|
chris |
drizzle is pretty neat too |
| 23:02 |
|
cfouts |
I'm potentially going to be doing testing against PerconaDB |
| 23:02 |
|
chris_n |
one of my dev install is running over maria with about 30k records in it |
| 23:03 |
|
chris |
im assuing percona is gpl |
| 23:03 |
|
chris |
but their website doesnt say |
| 23:03 |
|
cfouts |
not sure |
| 23:03 |
|
cfouts |
it has enhanced instrumentation |
| 23:05 |
|
chris |
i hate sites that dont put up license info in a easy place |
| 23:05 |
|
chris |
i shouldnt have to download the tarball to find out :) |
| 23:05 |
|
chris |
All Percona software is available for download and unlimited usage at no charge, released for free under open source licenses. Percona does not adhere to any "dual licensing" or "community vs. enterprise" software pricing strategies. There is only one version of all Percona software, and that version is always free. |
| 23:06 |
|
chris |
so im guessing still gpl :) |
| 23:06 |
|
chris |
sounds like they have learnt well from the lessons of mysql :) |
| 23:07 |
|
* chris |
is now curious and its lunchtime so ill eyeball the source |
| 23:07 |
|
chris_n |
maria uses XtraDB as well |
| 23:07 |
|
cfouts |
in that vein, they recently issued an elaboration: http://www.mysqlperformanceblo[…]s-to-mysql-users/ |
| 23:08 |
|
chris_n |
it sure sounds like there is some very low hanging fruit here to be had in multi-db support |
| 23:09 |
|
chris |
yeah |
| 23:10 |
|
chris |
percona seems cool |
| 23:10 |
|
chris |
as does drizzle |
| 23:10 |
|
chris |
and maria |
| 23:10 |
|
chris |
drizzle isnt a drop in replacement of course |
| 23:10 |
|
chris_n |
nice writeup |
| 23:10 |
|
chris |
http://drizzle.org/Home.html |
| 23:11 |
|
chris_n |
cfouts: if percona is as drop-in as maria, you can leave your db's in place |
| 23:11 |
|
cfouts |
that's what I'm hoping. |
| 23:11 |
|
* chris_n |
did and maria cranked right up without a hitch |
| 23:11 |
|
chris_n |
very nice imho |
| 23:11 |
|
cfouts |
though we're still using predominantly mysql 5.0 |
| 23:11 |
|
chris |
gpl2 |
| 23:12 |
|
chris |
according to their source |
| 23:12 |
|
chris_n |
that fits nicely into the picture |
