The way things are set up, to Koha--and to your PC--it looks like another keyboard, is all.

Why have different rules? No one is special - like I said. Also you should reply on list so that the thread isn't broken 12:59 tajoli B-developer: a person of an other firm need to sign_off your patch 12:59 oleonard I agree with nengard. No one's work is free from errors. 12:59 druthb Find me an A-developer that never, ever makes an error, tajoli. That's what it'd take for your plan to *not* harm Koha. 13:00 nengard We're all human, we all make mistakes, we all mis semi-colons - no one should have the ability to bypass the quality assurance steps in place 13:00 druthb Might not hurt anything this week, or next. But some night when some guru has gotten real tired---they could break things *horribly.* 13:02 tajoli Ok, i write to mailing list 13:06 druthb The other problem, tajoli, with such a scheme is "who decides?" We don't really have a Pope, or some other central authority--so who decides who is an A and who is B? And how do you prevent someone from being greatly pissed when they get turned down for "A" status? Down that way leads heartaches and much, much drama that this community does not need, IMO. 13:07 hdl druthb: this 'community' is not just about developers. 13:07 hdl It is about libraries. 13:07 druthb I personally would *decline* "A" status. I know too well that I am not perfect, and I *want* a second set of eyeballs on my work. 13:07 hdl And some libraris which have had some code in production for years. 13:07 druthb sure it is, hdl; but are libraries served well by letting my late-night bad ideas into the code? 13:07 tajoli The Relese manager si the prson that give A/B status 13:07 hdl Which could not make its way to trunk 13:08 tajoli Also I. 13:08 tajoli I don't see myself as A developer 13:08 tajoli In fact A-developer are in fact vice QA 13:09 tajoli I see this organization on BSD 13:09 tajoli develper with commit bit, developers without commit bit 13:12 hdl druthb: it is not only late night ideas. It is code delivered.... And libraries who wanted the code to be contributed... And late changes in the workflow. 13:13 hdl I donot want to argue. I want to put the libraries concerns in the center of the place. 13:15 druthb My concern for the libraries is also strong, hdl--specifically, I do not ever, ever want to risk giving them severely busted code and having Koha looking bad for it. To me, that means paying gobs more attention to the backend than we were doing prior to 3.4. I don't see this change as "late". I see it as *essential* to the long-term health of Koha. 13:16 * sekjal goes to read the IRC logs... 13:17 druthb Even the *slightest* risk of that is, to me, unacceptable, having worked in a library whose vendor routinely put out seriously-broken releases. 13:17 paul_p well, to jump in the discussion: BibLibre patches/features are not written by a developper, but by a company, validated by someone internally and by the customer itself. It's not "paul" that is A-dev, it's "BibLibre workflow" 13:18 hdl ok. about all the bugs in holds and circulation and research, i think that they will exist untill someone devote time and hard work on that. 13:19 hdl We devoted time, and hard work on that. And proposed that as a contribution, if no one wants that... Then ok. 13:19 druthb Sure, paul, and ByWater signs off internally, as well. But it still comes down to a person at a keyboard. ByWater, Inc doesn't write patches. sekjal, nengard, druthb, bg, etc...do. An internal process can help catch those flubs--but it's *never* perfect. 13:19 hdl We donot use internal sign off. 13:19 hdl We use branches. 13:19 hdl And merges. 13:20 hdl And this is why we are not 'signing off' our own patches. 13:20 sekjal hdl: but multiple eyes in within BibLibre are confirming that the code works as intended? 13:20 hdl And I would think quite wrong to autosign off... 13:20 hdl Yep. 13:20 druthb hdl: so, you're telling me that before the code is released, it doesn't have a second set of eyes on it, to test it? 13:20 hdl devloper, project manager, library 13:20 * druthb is perhaps confused. 13:21 hdl that makes at least 3 persons. 13:21 sekjal okay, so if someone is confirming that it works, then that's essentially a signoff. it just needs the -s flag on format-patch (at technicality) 13:21 hdl .... ask librarians to use the command line client to use git.... 13:22 paul_p sekjal++ (except our project manager or customers will never use git) 13:22 oleonard But the question is are they seeing the effect of one patch, or a lot of patches working together? 13:22 hdl It is easier to have bugzilla or our mantis solved. 13:22 hdl some patches working together.. 13:22 paul_p (sorry, keyboard mistake) 13:23 hdl many times, you need more than a single patch to get exactly what is required. 13:23 sekjal hdl: could you have a git user act as a proxy for the project manager? project manager says "yup, that's good, sign off for me" and someone types the right thing on the keyboard? 13:23 paul_p oleonard, it depends. If you speak of solR, for example, they test a full branch. 13:24 paul_p when speaking of a feature, usually, they test master+FT1+FT2+FT3 merged in a branch called customer 13:24 hdl sekjal: we are using merge workflow. and rebasing is breaking the commit ids. 13:25 oleonard paul_p: So the question is can FT1 be tested properly just on its own? Is it feature-specific enough that it *can* be tested properly? 13:25 hdl I donot claim we have the better workflow. But it works. And we could have that for the comunity as well... With instances ppl could just go and test on jenkins.koha-community.org. 13:25 paul_p oleonard, I think we can say yes. 13:25 paul_p koha-sandbox++ !!! 13:26 oleonard It sounds to me like koha-sandbox is just going to mix together a bunch of stuff in such a way that no one knows what is being tested. 13:27 hdl not if you create one vhost by bug... and with one branch. 13:27 sekjal each bug/feature needs to be on it's own branch, and testable independently. if it takes multiple commits to write it, fine, we can squash, but mixing two features into a single testing branch is not scientific enough for my tastes 13:27 paul_p hdl, that may be hard to have 1 sandbox for each patch/branch ! 13:28 hdl could be done with a mutt client i think 13:28 tajoli In fact i' will organize a koha-sandbox with my two skilled users 13:28 oleonard paul_p: That's the only way anyone can properly test a patch! One bug/feature per branch, as sekjal says 13:28 paul_p my proposal is not to have one branch per feature, it's to have some developers that can say: "OK, I say it works, I merge, everyone test and confirm. If any problem, then i'll fix quickly" 13:29 hdl oleonard: you would also have to test the merge. 13:29 paul_p (it's roughtly zeno & bob proposal) 13:29 nengard @later tell wizzyrea did you try that skype replacement we downloaded? I'm no sure how to set it up, so if you did tips would be welcome 13:29 huginn nengard: The operation succeeded. 13:29 tajoli In fact, yes it is 13:29 oleonard hdl: Of course, that's part of the process. But if you're doing it one patch at a time you can tackle each one carefully. 13:30 oleonard If I have one patch to test, I'm testing the merge as soon as I apply it. 13:30 paul_p oleonard, for new features, you can't have one patch. Or it's a *big* one that affect 20 files 13:30 oleonard Yes, you can have one patch. Squash em. As long as it is *feature-specific* and testable. 13:31 paul_p oleonard, look just at http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=6328 and the patch. Just for a "small" fix 13:31 huginn 04Bug 6328: major, PATCH-Sent, ---, paul.poulain, ASSIGNED , Fine in days does not work 13:31 paul_p (for a feature that is supposed to have passed QA and made his way into 3.4 !) 13:32 paul_p I'm ready to bet that it won't make his way easily into Koha, as most of you don't care, and if someone cares, i'm sure i'l have to rebase because it touches so many files... 13:33 paul_p ( s/i'm ready/i'm willing/ probably ) 13:33 paul_p most of you don't care = it's a features 90% of french libraries want, and 0% of US ones afaik 13:33 oleonard Of course you'll have to rebase! We all have to rebase, all the time! 13:34 sekjal paul_p: looks like that bug report is pretty good; has a way to reproduce the issue, so that's a starting place for testing 13:34 sekjal so getting a signoff shouldn't be too hard: it's easy enough to tell if the problem goes away after application 13:34 paul_p oleonard, and are you happy with http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=3652 ? 13:34 huginn 04Bug 3652: critical, PATCH-Sent, ---, oleonard, ASSIGNED , XSS vulnerabilities 13:35 paul_p phone ring 13:35 sekjal the trickier part, of course, will be checking the integration with other parts of the code, but I will do that as part of QA (others are welcome to do so, too, but I'm obligated) 13:36 oleonard paul_p: No, of course not. But that's an example of the kind of fix we have to try to avoid. 13:36 paul_p (on phone) 13:36 oleonard This was a special case, where the complete fix touched a *lot* of files. I don't know if it could have been handled better, but I understand why it got left behind. 13:37 paul_p oleonard, you get it ! many of the new features touches a * lot* of files. And it can't be handled better. 13:38 paul_p (and I understand why it got left behind with the current workflow, that why I say it's defective !) 13:38 oleonard There's a difference between a feature which touches a lot of files and a huge template revision like 3652 that *can't* be tested except all at once. 13:39 sekjal and I think we're getting down to a core part of the issues: big features require big testing, and it's not always easy to get that from outside the immediate development team 13:39 oleonard But there are a lot of ways to make it easier. 13:40 paul_p oleonard, if a feature stays untested by anyone for a few weeks, I promize there's no difference : the patch won't apply anymore will have to be rebased, with side effect, maybe features merged before this new feature that couldn't make his path,... 13:40 paul_p that's exactly what we faced with circ improvements ! 13:40 oleonard Like I said paul_p, there are ways to make it easier. 13:40 oleonard Patches have to be made more focused. 13:41 oleonard People need to be able to test specific features or fixes. 13:42 druthb oleonard++ #Ask me to test "fix the <blah> so it <foo>s instead of <bar>" and you'll get somewhere quicker than "circ improvements." 13:43 oleonard If I'm looking at the list of bugs needing signoff, I'm looking for something I understand and feel I know how to test 13:43 oleonard If the problem isn't clearly stated in the bug report I'll skip it 13:44 paul_p (on phone again) 13:44 sekjal clear bug reports, describing exactly what the problem is, or what the feature should do, are essential. the clearer, the easier it will be for folks (any folks) to test 13:44 tajoli Ok, I need to leave 13:46 oleonard I *like* testing and signing off on patches, so I'm happy to see stuff I can test 13:48 sekjal okay, so back to the idea of test instances per feature 13:48 sekjal how could we build a librarian-friendly system for testing and signoff? 13:48 sekjal something all GUI-based 13:49 sekjal you check out the feature you want to test, then comment on the results, and either signoff, or report a problem 13:49 sekjal have that action be something we can translate down to Git automagically 13:50 sekjal I imagine the checkout process could be awfully slow, especially if it's a large feature, but surely there is a way to make it managable 13:52 sekjal further refinement to the idea: make this whole thing a VM image that can be downloaded, so we don't have to have a centralized test server 13:53 sekjal anyone in the world could set one up, with a limited number of concurrent users based on the number of resources they have available to donate 13:53 druthb sekjal++ #so clever 13:55 oleonard Having a downloadable VM image would be tricky as the images diverge from master 13:55 sekjal the VM would need a synchronization mechanism 13:56 sekjal so when you fire it up, it pulls the code from git.k-c.org, and highlights all the branches that need testing 13:57 sekjal we'd need to make sure that each branch needing testing was available, and that once testing was complete, it was merged, but that's doable 13:58 hdl sekjal: it also could be done with a kind of my koha on the jenkins host. 14:01 sekjal So, we'd need an admin page where the user can a) sync to git, b) review bugs that need testing (pulling in the conversation from Bugzilla), c) select a bug, d) comment (and have those return to Bugzilla) and e) either signoff or note that it didn't pass testing 14:01 sekjal would probably also need a registration layer, so the user's name and email could get into both Bugzilla (for commenting) and git (for signoffs) 14:02 sekjal idea: provide f) a mechanism for reporting new bugs? 14:03 sekjal f) would require them to be on a recently synced version of the master branch, but could include provisions to include links and screenshots 14:03 paul_p sekjal: saying "git pull" already has make 99% of the libraries leaving. We need a mechanism where a librarian can say "hey, i've tested this cool feature on sanbox.koha-community.org, added last week, it's cool and working well !" 14:03 sekjal paul_p: agreed. this proposed VM tool would be entirely GUI based, and do all the git stuff invisibly on the backend 14:04 druthb Automate a), and go straight to b) on login, sekjal? 14:04 sekjal druthb: the initial set up should sync automatically, but I think having some kind of "confirm" for syncing thereafter may be good 14:05 sekjal perhaps with an option to save the confirm and autosync 14:05 hdl sekjal: I think it could be done statically and not on demand... which would be quite demanding in terms od devs. 14:06 hdl If we had branches on a repository, a cronscript could go through the "proposed" branches and do all the clones and checkouts to branches and install the vhosts. 14:06 hdl But I might be missing something in the reason why you want it dynamic 14:07 sekjal hdl: that makes sense, especially in a multi-user server environment 14:07 sekjal you set up X Vhosts, and populate them with X branches to test 14:07 sekjal the user can pick from those pre-populated options 14:07 sekjal but not checkout new ones 14:07 sekjal for a local VM where the user is the only person connecting to the machine, we could allow for a more dynamic approach 14:08 hdl but more demanding. 14:08 sekjal hdl: true; the local user would need to expend the time to set the machine up 14:09 sekjal if someone set up a server of this, they'd do the initial set up, and the tester would just be able to connect and test 14:09 sekjal I say we design the tool to work both ways 14:09 sekjal so users who aren't comfortable with VMs, or don't have time to set up the testing environment themselves, can connect to a server that provides all this 14:10 sekjal I'm pretty sure I could convince ByWater to put up a server of this with a few slots for testing various branches 14:10 sekjal BibLibre is already doing something like this, so perhaps once this tool is complete, it would provide an easier method of maintaining the service you already provide 14:13 sekjal oooh, and we could give this to library schools, both as a quick, easy demo of the system, as well as a way to distribute testing 14:13 sekjal professors could offer extra credit for testing a new feature 14:14 sekjal and if we wrote the whole thing generically enough, perhaps it could be applied to other git-based open source projects, as well 14:14 druthb open_source_tools_for_testing_open_source_software++ 14:15 sekjal gtg; must relocate. back in 30 min or so 14:21 oleonard Anyone else feel like there should be a delete button on addbiblio.pl? 14:29 oleonard If I'm looking at the "Notices" tab of a patron in the staff client, why might I see "failed" in the status column? 14:36 * oleonard thinks everyone must be busy building the git-vm supercomputer 14:38 jwagner oleonard, I think "failed" means the patron didn't have an email address so Koha couldn't send the notice. 14:38 oleonard That doesn't appear to be the case with this particular patron 14:41 hdl oleonard: I thought of a kind of mykoha not on vms but on a machine. But with different versions. 14:44 jwagner Or maybe that Koha couldn't talk to the mailserver at that point? 14:59 Ropuch I'm looking through 3.4 pl-PL*.po files and I can see lot's of non english terms in source fields 14:59 Ropuch Like Billedbøker for barn i alderen til og med 5 Ã¥r; 15:01 kf Ropuch: That is norwegian 15:01 huginn New commit(s) needsignoff: [Bug 6291] Cart printing truncated in Firefox <http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=6291> 15:01 Ropuch Suppose it's some norwegian dialect, but afair .po files were generated from english 15:01 kf Rocpuch: If you don't plan to use NORMARC you can just copy it over 15:01 Ropuch Oh 15:01 kf it's from the NORMARC xslt files 15:01 kf those have no english translation at the moment 15:01 Ropuch That's a relief 15:02 Ropuch I don't mind learning norwegian, but not at the moment ;> 15:02 sekjal oleonard: jwagner's right, the 'failed' status comes when the intended email address couldn't be used (either there was no value for that field, or the email was somehow invalid) 15:03 oleonard sekjal: Do you know by what mechanism it comes to that conclusion? 15:03 sekjal oleonard: I do not... would have to look it up 15:04 hdl sekjal: oleonard testing sendmail result iirc. 15:08 sekjal oleonard: I believe the test is just on the existence of $to_address. so anything not null, 0 or empty string should work. 15:30 wizzyrea hello friends 15:31 oleonard Hi wizzyrea 15:37 oleonard Steve J...obs? 15:38 paul_p lol 15:38 paul_p hi wizzyrea 15:38 SteveJ obs? 15:39 oleonard SteveJ + obs = SteveJobs 15:39 SteveJ I wish. 15:39 Ropuch ;> 15:39 Ropuch Hi wizzyrea 15:42 kf nengard++ 15:43 nengard for what? what did I do this time? :) 15:43 kf for asking about the pattern and for fighting for us librarians :) 15:44 paul_p nengard & kf: maybe a misunderstanding with "can".

So there isn't any better English wording? 17:48 sekjal I think that would be the right way to say it in Koha-English. anything else could just cause confusion 17:49 gmcharlt yeah, other systems might call it a patron block or something like that 17:49 gmcharlt but if we were to change it, would want to do so across the board 17:50 * gmcharlt suddenly wonders what law firm libraries make of that terminology :) 17:50 gmcharlt I guess it would kinda be the ultimate stick to get lawyers to return their books on time ... do it or be debarred! 17:51 sekjal gmcharlt: we've got a law school library going live soon... we'll ask about the reaction they get 17:52 fredericd That's where I'm lost. I'm totaly unable to 'feel' how sound such a formulation... or even if it's just correct. 17:55 gmcharlt fredericd: an alternative wording that might work without having to go so far as to drop "debar" might be "Restore Privileges" 17:58 hdl maybe "Un - Trap" but this would also be somehow clumsy 18:00 nengard debar is one of my pet peeves in koha ... means nothing to most of us 18:00 nengard should say 'restrict' and 'lift restriction' i think 18:01 gmcharlt that works 18:01 nengard if i get one more vote on that i'll fix it!! :) hehe 18:02 sekjal as I recall, it's also being used differently now (to indicate the patron cannot borrower) that it was originally intended in Koha 1.0 (to indicate this person is banned from the library!) 18:02 nengard i've hated that forever and ever 18:02 * oleonard votes "restrict" 18:02 nengard checking for an existing bug report ... if one isnt there i'm reporting and fixing it NOW 18:02 nengard :) hehe 18:02 sekjal I'd like to see the three flags, debarred, gonenoaddress and lostcard, removed in favour of something more robust and locally configurable 18:03 * gmcharlt smells new patron attributes 18:03 nengard bug 5268 ... reported by ...

What do you mean exactly? 18:04 cait ah cool 18:05 cait no, I only wondered because I thought the api was changed 18:06 sekjal going over the top, we could have several User Permissions: CanCheckout, CanPlaceHold, CanRenew etc, each being able to be shut off for a user-configurable reason 18:08 gmcharlt sekjal: what would be the advantage of doing it as per-patron permissions as opposed to policies set per patron group or by the circ matrix? 18:09 sekjal there defaults defined by patron category and branchcode, yes 18:09 sekjal s/there/there should be/ 18:10 sekjal but once a patron has too many fines, too many overdues, or does some kind of unruly behaviour, they would individually be changed to a different permission set, selecting from the reasons configured in Auth Values 18:10 gmcharlt sekjal: ah, I see 18:11 gmcharlt but I think that would be better done parallel to user permissions, not overloading the permissions mechanism 18:12 sekjal it would be a strain to base this all on the current permissions set up, but it would also provide a very integrated approach to things 18:12 sekjal I could see some confusion in future development if we had two permissions systems 18:12 sekjal it's already confusing enough with the borrowers.flags and then the granular permissions tables in addition to that 18:12 gmcharlt well, it wouldn't be two permissions systems 18:12 gmcharlt it woudl be one permissions system, and one circ block system 18:13 sekjal ah, okay 18:13 sekjal that makes sense 18:19 cait hm, perhaps fines could also be a trigger to cause a circ block 18:20 cait get those can not renew, can not checkout, can not issue fine related sys prefs into a new more flexible block system 18:58 cait fredericd: still around? 19:07 oleonard @wunder 45701 19:07 huginn oleonard: The current temperature in Ohio University, Athens, Ohio is 29.4�C (3:10 PM EDT on May 12, 2011).
