12:43 magnuse pro tip: do not leave the "sub {}" off subroutines, it will have surprising effects
12:45 oleonard Gmail is aggressively suggesting today that my own messages to the bugs list look like Spam.
12:46 rsantellan oleonard: that has been an issue for me for a while, lucky it stil apply the filters and I can see when a message arrive on spam

12:54 atheia hey oleonard:
12:55 atheia Agreed, I would say it's not really ready for testing yet anyway, as the tests & documentation don't exist yet.
12:55 Joubu hi #koha
12:55 atheia The first priority for us, from our perspective is to focus on stockrotation (11897).  After that I can finish ILL.

12:58 * ashimema would like to mention that he's made it mandatory for us to submit a documentation patch along with the full and proper submission of ILL ;).. to set a good example.. as atheia says, right now it's a sort of preview patch.. it all works but you need to work it out yourself a bit right now ;)

13:12 Joubu as usual, read the what's on in koha-devel email, lot of things in the last one
13:13 Joubu I suggested to move it to a collaborative approach
13:13 Joubu I am really happy with the feedback/answers I got from the poll
13:13 Joubu and the kanban
13:13 Joubu kanban is https://tree.taiga.io/project/[…]rm-1711/wiki/home

13:14 fridolin #info Fridolin Somers, Biblibre
13:14 Joubu we are 45 so far
13:14 cait yay :)
13:14 tcohen Joubu: do you think we could add how-to.pl to kohadevbox already?
13:14 Joubu I really (*really*) would like to see more regulars involved in the "top priority" tasks
13:14 Joubu which is "welcome new contributor"
13:14 Joubu one subtask is to update the wiki pages, to get entry points
13:15 kidclamp #link  https://tree.taiga.io/project/[…]rm-1711/wiki/home 17.11 kanban board
13:15 Joubu to clearly list how people can help us
13:15 Joubu our wiki is a mess, some pages are ok but need a bit refresh
13:15 fridolin indeed
13:15 kidclamp #info regulars please help with the "welcome new contributor" task and update wiki to make it easier/more welcoming for newcomers
13:15 Joubu I think 1h of 5 people and we are done
13:16 Joubu tcohen: yes, soon, I plan to do it
13:16 Joubu tcohen: but do if you like :)
13:17 Joubu I am gonna send a kind of results of the poll to the list
13:17 tcohen Joubu++
13:17 Joubu to highlight how people are willing to help and what they are expecting for the next release
13:17 Joubu that's all for me

13:18 Joubu (ha, and jenkins tells master is not stable, but it's wrong :))
13:19 kidclamp okay moving ahead
13:19 atheia ehm… Bug 11897 is looking for testers — hoping to get it to QA fast in this release cycle.

13:21 thd #info Thomas Dukleth, Agogme, New York, [still no dial tone or internet from home, waaah]
13:21 kidclamp fridolin?
13:21 wahanui rumour has it fridolin is busy at the moment, I asked him to backport the bug fix
13:21 kidclamp cait?
13:21 wahanui i heard cait was the best friend you could ever have.
13:22 cait I plan to stick to schedule
13:22 cait but following in fridolin's step now :)
13:22 kidclamp #info 16.11 on schedule but following patches from 17.05
13:22 cait I have caught up with master, so waiting for the first things he pushes now
13:22 cait well caught up to 17.05 release tag
13:22 kidclamp :-)
13:22 cait i still got 2 failing tests on jenkins that i don't know how to fix
13:23 kidclamp #info 2 tests failing on 16.11.x
13:23 cait i'd be very happy to see it 'blue' again
13:23 tcohen cait: those are jenkins problems
13:23 tcohen your branch is stable
13:23 kidclamp #info branch is stable, jenkins is having issues (poor jenkins)
13:23 tcohen yesterday we spent some time with Joubu trying to find the issue
13:23 tcohen and fix it
13:24 kidclamp mtj fridolin around?
13:24 Joubu 16.05.12 and 16.05.13 are buggy (cannot modify patron's passwd), see bug 18740
13:24 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]_bug.cgi?id=18740 major, P5 - low, ---, jonathan.druart, Signed Off , [16.05.12-16.05.13] Cannot modify patron password
13:24 cait cool thx!
13:24 BobB its 1am where mtj is, but he's committed to maintaining 16.05
13:24 kidclamp #info 16.05.12 & 16.05.13 are buggy (cannot modify patron's passwd), see bug 18740
13:25 kidclamp BobB++
13:25 kidclamp mtj++
13:25 kidclamp you have something for manual cait? for 17.05 or later?
13:26 caboose joined #koha
13:26 fridolin kidclamp: yes
13:26 kidclamp anything to add?
13:27 fridolin i prepare for RMaint
13:27 fridolin but git branch is not yet created : 17.05/x
13:27 fridolin .x
13:27 fridolin i'm not allowed to do it
13:27 fridolin :D
13:27 kidclamp #info frido needs a git branch for 17.05.x and is prepared to start
13:28 Joubu fridolin: will do
13:28 cait sorry here
13:28 fridolin cool
13:28 fridolin ill try to do some each day
13:28 cait fridolin++
13:29 cait manual?
13:29 wahanui hmmm... manual is at http://www.koha-community.org/documentation
13:29 Joubu fridolin: I cannot
13:29 BobB #action Joubu to prepare a 17.05 git branch for frido
13:29 cait the new manual for 17.05 has been generated and added to the website
13:29 juan_s joined #koha
13:29 cait there is an easy workflow for editing it with gitlab - no installation or downloads required, just web based
13:29 cait I have tested it with rangi and will write up a wiki page
13:29 tcohen cait: have you talked with bgkriegel about making a translation available?¡
13:30 oleonard cool!
13:30 cait we have a lot of documentation to catch up on as not much has happened since Nicole left
13:30 cait so i hope to get as many volunteeers to help out as possible
13:30 kidclamp #info cait and rangi working on a gitlab based update system for the manual
13:30 kidclamp #info wiki page to follow, should lower the bar
13:30 cait it would possibly be best to work from the old release notes - I will think about a way to create a list of chapters we miss
13:30 cait tcohen: i think not yet - but it's planned
13:31 cait but anyone who wants to contribute or help out, please get in contact :)
13:31 cait i think Joubu has a list from the form - maybe we can start with those and use taiga, but I really want to make it as easy as possible
13:31 * ashimema would love to see a coding guideline to require doc update with new feature submissions.
13:31 kidclamp #info contact them in interested in helping
13:31 cait so if a library contributes in word or something, we will look for someone to convert it
13:32 cait ashimema: i think we have that - but yep, i will try to hunt down people in this release cycle to do that :)
13:32 ashimema :)
13:32 cait and hope others will help to keep an eye on it
13:32 atheia cait++ & ashimema++
13:32 Joubu I can ask for a description before pushing enh/ft if we agree on that
13:32 cait maybe qa?
13:32 atheia (also aware I didn't write anything for housebound…! 8-/ )
13:32 * ashimema has been bad at QA then if there's a guideline for that.. oops :(
13:33 cait lt met quickly check the coding guidelines
13:33 barton jzairo's in a conference call, but said that she was interested in volunteering for documentation.
13:33 ashimema atheia.. I think you just vounteered to write the housebound docs patch ;)
13:33 kidclamp ashimema want to write something up for devmeeting and send to lists?
13:33 tcohen I think enhancements are filled with longer descriptions for inclusion in the release announcement, but that might not be enough  for the manual
13:33 cait hm i might have been wrong, can't spot it
13:33 cait so we shoudl have one
13:33 atheia ashimema: seems only fair.
13:33 ashimema will try to fit it in kidclamp :)
13:34 kidclamp #info ashimema proposed doc requirements for new enhancements will try to have proposal fro next dev meeting
13:34 cait kidclamp: action a coding guideline for that?
13:34 cait :)
13:35 cait once we have the workflow down and documented, we could also have a documentation day/documentation party
13:35 ashimema the bit that was holding me back on that front was it's wasn't hugely clear how to submit doc patches at the time I was trying to go through it.
13:35 ashimema cait++
13:35 cait that's all from me
13:35 kidclamp cait++
13:35 cait rangi++
13:35 kidclamp alright, anything else or move to Kohacon?
13:35 thd All programs should also be written to display their own documentation on command.
13:35 oleonard i
13:35 Joubu I do not think the dev should provide the whole doc, but at least enough info to explain the doc team to understand it easily
13:35 cait he came up with it, just have to write it up now
13:36 Joubu Is that what we are saying?
13:36 cait i think that makes sense
13:36 kidclamp yes, devs can write in dev speak with basic feature
13:36 ashimema I believe so Joubu
13:36 cait yeah, the technical descriptions are good
13:36 cait but sometimes we miss the user understandable part :)
13:36 BobB if devs start the doco, non-devs can improve it
13:36 Joubu ok perfect
13:36 atheia But it should definitely be a patch to the manual, not just in perlpod or some such, right?
13:37 ashimema so there's at least a starting point in the docs for anyone to embellish.. if you've done development write you'll have written a spec for the enhancement and that spec should go a long way towards becoming a documentation :)
13:37 Joubu my understanding was that the dev should fill the "text for the release notes" field on bugz
13:37 barton I think we also need to test documentation...
13:37 Joubu s/should/must
13:37 ashimema patch to the manual in my opinion.. partially depends... but that'll come down to the QAer reviewing it ;)
13:38 cait for the moment rangi and i iwll be able to merge
13:38 kidclamp I think as long as they can provide the text in the bug we can see about patch submission
13:38 ashimema I see 'text for release notes' as a minor summary of what the feature does.. whereas the docs are more of a 'how to use this new shiny feature'
13:38 barton ... i.e. have people follow instructions and make sure that they work, and are understandable.
13:38 cait i think no qa yet for the manual, but that would be nice once we actually have documentation written :)
13:38 cait ashimema +1
13:39 kidclamp moving us on
13:39 Joubu wait
13:39 * kidclamp pauses
13:39 atheia Yeah I'm with kidclamp, barton and ashimema here: a new feature should provide a text that at least describes what the feature does and how you use it, as part of the bug.
13:39 Joubu then we need the "text for release notes" + a comment with a "doc" tag for instance?
13:39 atheia Not sure whether it should be in "text for the release notes" or somewhere else.
13:39 Joubu to explain more deeply what the ft does/how it works?
13:40 atheia Yeah, Joubu, I would think so?
13:40 ashimema so for ptfs-e's patches these days we're slowly moving to more of a team inclusive model.. support + customer refined a spec, dev develops it, support turns spec + development screenshots into documentation.. dev submits the feature along with the docs..
13:40 ashimema that's a model I'd love to see taken more widely.
13:40 cait oh just one mor ething: we got 2 shiny new chapters for the web installer and the onboarding tool!
13:40 Joubu will be a mess to find it in the comment of bugz, but maybe the tag can help
13:40 cait if you want to check that out :)
13:40 fridolin left #koha
13:40 kidclamp #info manual has new chapters for web installer and the onboarding tool! (shiny new chapters)
13:40 atheia Couldn't one simply add it as a non-patch attachment?
13:41 kidclamp I like that idea
13:41 ashimema I'll talk to cait and rangi about docs patches workflow
13:41 cait i think if you attached to the bug report a 'docs team' could use it
13:41 kidclamp I like this discussion but think we should send to list and work up proposal fro dev meeting
13:41 cait but we need to found one :)
13:41 ashimema personally.. I'd like to see a pull request opened on the doc gitlab and a link to it from the bugzilla bug
13:41 Joubu let's move on and vote for the guidelines next dev meeting?
13:41 ashimema yup
13:42 ashimema agreed.. lets move on.. :)
13:42 cait ashimema: kidn of how we want it to work
13:42 cait merge request tho
13:42 cait pull is github
13:42 kidclamp #action cait ashimema rangi will talk manual submissions for enhancments and prepare for dev meeting
13:42 ashimema merge/pull.. same thing ;)
13:42 kidclamp @topic KohaCon

13:42 kidclamp #topic KohaCon
13:42 Topic for #koha is now KohaCon (Meeting topic: General IRC meeting 7 June 2017)
13:42 tcohen I think the doc managers should be the ones to talk to devs
13:43 tcohen or the other way around
13:43 kidclamp schnydszch, around?
13:43 tcohen but no need to add a new guideline
13:43 schnydszch Hi all! Eugene here from Manila, Philippines
13:43 schnydszch Yes kidclamp.
13:43 wahanui Sandwich King of the Northeast
13:44 schnydszch Just to update you all, kohacon2017 is just two weeks. The organizers are pretty excited and working double time.
13:45 schnydszch The current registration stands at 275 participants, 50+ foreign, 200+ local.
13:45 kidclamp #info Kohacon2017 is 2 weeks away - 275 participants - excitement is high :-)
13:46 schnydszch We posted a week before regarding the situation in the Southern part of the Philippines which is 2000 km away from Makati City
13:47 kidclamp #info see lists for update about situation in souther phillipines
13:47 cait is it still possible to register?
13:47 cait I know of someone in Manila who woud like to attend
13:47 schnydszch The organizers have seek security clearance from local police. The venue has its own security so we assure safety of the participants during the event
13:47 kidclamp #info he organizers have seek security clearance from local police. The venue has its own security so we assure safety of the participants during the event
13:47 schnydszch to those who want to register, they can email us at kohacon17@gmail.com or aslplibrarians@gmail.com

13:48 cait thx schnydszch - i will forward that
13:49 kidclamp anything more schnydszch?
13:49 schnydszch Paul Poulain and Gaetan Boisson will be coming over. Joann Ransom declined participation upon hearing the isolated accident which happened at Resorts World Manila, that some media tagged it as done by ISIS
13:51 schnydszch ..But recent investigation, it's only done by a lone gunman. But we assure the participants safety during the event as we already seek security clearance from local police

13:58 thd Also, is 5th to close to US independence day for good participation?
13:58 kidclamp 21 is good for me

14:05 oleonard I finally figured out why Bug 11897 wasn't applying for me in kohadevbox when it applies fine for everyone else and in my old Debian virtualbox
14:05 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]_bug.cgi?id=11897 new feature, P5 - low, ---, alex.sassmannshausen, Needs Signoff , Stock Rotation for Koha
14:05 oleonard Blame Windows.
14:06 oleonard The patch updating to camel case confused Windows because Windows doesn't care about case in file names.
14:06 tcohen oleonard: oh! you might better apply it inside the box then!
14:06 atheia Ah — how frustrating!
14:06 oleonard This could be a problem for other users of kohadevbox on Windows when testing patches which make similar file name changes
14:07 atheia That is good to know about!
14:07 thd oleonard: People would also have the same problem on OS X, which does casefolding.
14:07 oleonard It just took me way too long to realize what was going wrong :|
14:07 atheia Perhaps we could add it to the devbox readme (the gotchas section at the end?)
14:08 jac joined #koha
14:09 thd Maybe we should add a coding guideline to avoid the use of case dependent file names.
14:09 oleonard thd: No, the patch was correct
14:10 rocio joined #koha
14:10 atheia thd: The issue in this case was not necessarily case dependentness, but renaming one case style to the one expected by Koha standards.
14:10 Joubu @later tell rangi can you create a 17.05.x branch for fridolin?
14:10 huginn Joubu: The operation succeeded.
14:11 thd What did the renaming?
14:11 oleonard thd: Files were created in one patch, and then the file names were corrected in a subsequent patch
14:12 thd Are guidelines in favour of camelcase for filenames actually forcing this problem?
14:13 atheia e.g. Stockrotationitems.pm -> StockRotationItems.pm
14:13 oleonard This is a problem which one dev faced when testing on one machine thd. It's not worth changing our coding guidelines for at this point.
14:14 thd I understand the small scope of the actual incident.
14:15 thd However, should we not be aspiring to the possibility that Koha might one day run on a case folding filesystem?
14:16 atheia Personally I don't feel strongly about this
14:16 atheia I wouldn't really have much to contribute to this conversation
14:17 atheia If you feel you want to pursue it, might want to bring it up at the next meeting?  But from my side… I think it's probably not worth it for now.
14:17 dilan joined #koha
14:17 eythian also, it's not reasily easy to solve. You can't ban renaming.
14:17 atheia (this is speaking purely from my personal perspective, in terms how I would be inclined to vote on this subject)
14:18 thd I definitely prefer camel case everywhere as advanced by the guidelines, however, I like to be able to move files across different filesystems without problems.
14:18 eythian (also, I'm usually wary of "lowest common denominator" solutions, especially when those denominators aren't in use.)
14:19 eythian thd: you can. You just have corner-cases with patches.
14:19 eythian well, you may end up with STOCKR~1.PM, but that's on you.
14:20 thd There was a fork of Koha at Near Eastern University which ran on MS Windows.  It is sad that we lost the efforts from NEU.

14:46 kidclamp ES stuff I want to toy with and some small patches on the horizon
14:47 mtompset A while back I was noting a call to indexer or something like that, which wouldn't exist on the Zebra side of things.

15:15 thd Yes, I should have time now but I have been exhausted from trying to discover what Verizon is doing to restore my home internet connection for the past two and a half months.  Going elsewhere merely to use internet service is keeping me from sleeping :(
15:16 Joubu hum, so it's a no or a yes?
15:16 thd Joubu: yes
15:16 Joubu I can send you an invitation for the kanban if you like
15:17 thd Joubu: Yes even if some rival company has to drill a hole in the wall to let the rain and a new cable in.
15:17 Joubu I have listed some tasks that do not receive enough attention from others
15:17 Joubu pm me your email address
15:18 Joubu one condition, you are not allowed to talk about your internet providers in comments ;)
15:18 LeeJ morning all...anyone ever come across a problem with 'prove -v xt/author/Text_CSV_Various.t'? The wiki's signoff documentation shows that 'prove xt/author' should be run but Text_CSV_Various.t keeps failing on me even when I have all the prereq modules installed.

15:38 Joubu LeeJ: did you open a bug report about the csv xt failures?
15:38 Joubu Text_CSV_Various.t I meant
15:39 LeeJ Joubu: not yet..I wanted to run it by people here first in case it was something trivial or I was just doing something wrong

16:09 Joubu thd: The "wiki clean-up" tasks has been subdivided in subtasks. I think it makes more sense to assign yourself a subtask instead of the global one
16:09 thd Joubu, I was just going to ask about that.
16:10 thd Joubu, how do I see the subtasks?

16:33 thd Joubu: I am much more interested in directing attention first to the bigger issue of migrating the wiki to MySQL so that we can upgrade MediaWiki and use faceted categorisation in Semantic MediaWiki.  Removing the hierarchical category Koha_Users with no pages of its own my help with faceting, however, removing QA_sprint_days without substituting something for the pages to which it is assigned does not seem to serve any useful purpose.

16:55 LeeJ Joubu: thd and I were playing a game of Where's Joubu :)
16:55 Joubu LeeJ: nope, no default dir. Why are you asking?
16:56 LeeJ Joubu: because I found yet another unit test bug. https://github.com/Koha-Commun[…]/sample_notices.t
16:57 LeeJ Joubu: line 25
16:58 LeeJ Joubu: it's supposed to be "en/mandatory/" not "en/default" and it causes 11 tests to fail. I re-ran the unit test with the folder name changed to mandatory and everything passes. Opening a bug report now and will add a patch to it as well
16:59 jbenojbeno joined #koha
16:59 Joubu LeeJ: thanks!
17:01 thd Joubu: I agree that the category QA_sprint_days is little used and necessarily not especially useful, however, all wiki pages should have some type of category assignment so that finding things does not rely entirely on guessing the correct text string in a full text search.
17:04 thd Joubu: Consequently, do you have a suggestion for a more useful category for which the pages which have been assigned the QA_sprint_days would be helpful such that removing QA_sprint_days would be constructive rather than destructive?

17:22 thd Joubu: Answering my own question and reverting to my earlier thinking the wiki pages for which QA_sprint_days have been assigned are probably better assigned to global bug squashing days which already includes one QA sprint day page and would be a better use especially as global bug squashing days have generally included QA squashing along with bug squashing more narrowly.  The QA_sprint_days category was most likely created without en
17:22 thd ough 'literary warrant' and understanding of the scope of Global bug squashing days at a time when the distinction may have had the potential to have more value.
17:27 Joubu thd: if you have some time to spend on the wiki, you should take a look at "#21 welcome new contributors"
17:27 Joubu https://tree.taiga.io/project/[…]oha-rm-1711/us/21
17:27 Joubu and especially "#24 Create one main entry point on the wiki (for everybody)"
17:27 Joubu https://tree.taiga.io/project/[…]a-rm-1711/task/24 (see the related pad link)
17:28 thd Joubu: I will look at completing the two related tasks to which I assigned myself in the next couple of days.  I need to help my elderly neighbour now before the visiting nurse comes..
17:28 Joubu that is the top priority at the moment
17:37 thd Joubu: I certainly see the great utility of welcome pages.  I created some welcome wiki usage guides for the previous Dokuwiki Koha wiki.  The task requires much time and concentration to do well.
