Both Peter and I gathered those emails into wiki pages and they're linked in the Development section of our Insight page: 20:25:49 https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_Insight#Development 20:26:07 stickster: perfect, thanks 20:26:47 what do we have remaining in front of us before we can start working on these? 20:27:06 pcalarco: Trying to fix remaining tickets from phase 1 20:27:27 Honestly, that's just a matter of cycles. I haven't had many of them, but hopefully everything is not blocking on me 20:28:06 #link https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-infrastructure/query?status=new&status=assigned&component=FedoraInsight <-- Our current tickets 20:28:07 yeah, I think, we need a stable basic feature set that contains all fixes 20:28:36 asrob: You have included another module in your asrob branch for Strongarm, are you planning that to be in the basic feature set? 20:28:59 #link https://fedorahosted.org/marketing-team/query?status=new&status=assigned&status=reopened&component=Fedora+Insight&order=priority 20:29:09 stahnma, which one? 20:29:27 Oops, poor stahnma :-) 20:29:28 ouch, I mean... 20:29:32 stickster, which one? 20:29:52 I will get back to and finish the open workflow ticket 20:30:04 asrob: I saw "strongarm" listed here: http://git.fedorahosted.org/git/?p=fedora-insight-features.git;a=blob;f=basic_features/basic_features.strongarm.inc;h=ef33a15a0b10ba00ba38e420557129a1b339a181;hb=refs/heads/asrob-basic-insight-features 20:30:56 stickster, ah yes, I didn't translate it flawlessly 20:31:26 stickster, yes, it would be good that strongarm would be in our basic feature set 20:31:47 pcalarco: Sorry we're on a tech topic here, but getting the feature set fully included in code is part of our critical path :-) 20:32:07 stickster: absolutely, no problem 20:32:10 asrob: I think we need to close the gate on new modules after this one :-) 20:32:23 stickster, look at this, "$export['ant_fwnbeat'] = $strongarm;" then "$strongarm->value = '[field_issue-formatted] - [field_beat-formatted]';" 20:32:32 asrob: Unless we find something that we absolutely need in order to repo-ize our customizations 20:32:35 ant == automatic nodetitle module ;) 20:32:47 stahnma, okay, absolute, +1 :) 20:32:51 haha 20:32:56 +1 20:32:58 poor stahnma 20:33:01 ouch 20:33:04 sorry stahnma 20:33:11 no biggie 20:33:45 stickster, +1 ;) 20:33:46 OK, so asrob, what you mean is that we need Strongarm in order to capture that auto_nodetitle customization 20:34:09 yeah 20:36:12 stickster, "An example of such a variable is site_frontpage. In Drupal this defaults to node, which ensures that the front page gets content as soon as some exists, but for many Drupal sites this setting is simply wrong. Strongarm gives the site builder a place in the equation - an opportunity to set the site_frontpage to something that makes sense for their site." 20:36:17 Right 20:36:30 stickster, I copied this from the strongarm page 20:36:39 that is very useful module 20:36:50 OK, so asrob, do you want to do the usual, you package and I'll review for you? 20:36:59 sure 20:37:07 #action asrob package Strongarm for D6 20:37:21 #action asrob will package strongarm and stickster will review 20:37:28 oops 20:37:38 whoops, sorry stickster :) 20:37:42 my bad 20:37:43 Here pcalarco, I'll undo both and you can refile 20:37:43 :) 20:37:44 #undo 20:37:44 Removing item from minutes: 20:37:46 #undo 20:37:46 Removing item from minutes: 20:37:51 #action asrob will package strongarm and stickster will review 20:37:52 Go ahead pcalarco :-) 20:37:55 cool 20:39:03 okay, so the only other packaging we expect will be features module moving into the main F15 branch at some point 20:39:12 features_extra, yetah 20:39:13 *yeah 20:39:31 great; anything else on packaging? 20:39:38 nothing 20:39:47 #action stickster puppetize features_extra usage once it enters stable 20:40:00 other topics either of you would like to discuss? 20:40:12 So one thing I'm going to try to do this week is to set aside Friday for devel work on Insight 20:40:46 stickster: great! 20:41:03 My $DAYJOB has really consumed all my cycles lately and it's not letting up any time soon. So if I reserve that day now I can work on our tickets. 20:41:20 But I don't expect I'll be able to do that again next week :-) 20:41:47 FWN in Insight has been working well; takes about 15-20 mins to republish an issue 20:42:07 pcalarco: That's awesome! 20:42:22 wohooo \o/ 20:42:45 so once we are ready, we can start adding more content, I think 20:42:49 pcalarco: I would really like to start expanding the usage a bit. Right now no one from Marketing team visits the moderation queue for Planet posts, for example. 20:43:05 It only gets updated if I remember, which happens only once every week or so, and that's not scalable. 20:43:26 that might be something that Josh on the FWN team might be interested in too 20:43:43 or sankarshan 20:44:28 I will ask the team if anyone would like to take over that, and invite them to join logistics if so 20:44:30 That would be great. pcalarco, is that something where you could set up a brief IRC session so we can walk through how to do it, and identify the material we want to promote on the site? 20:44:55 stickster: great idea, yes, happy to facilitate that 20:45:43 #action pcalarco Ask FWN team for volunteers to help with Insight moderation queue, and coordinate w/ logistics list to set up briefing time 20:46:00 I am traveling tomorrow through next Monday, but will announce this and plan for next week 20:46:14 That's fine, this doesn't need to be done in the next few days :-) 20:46:40 any other topics to discuss? 20:46:51 - 20:47:11 - 20:47:22 do we still have theming outstanding items or did tatica get all of those? 20:49:23 okay, any other issues, or shall we close? 20:50:04 pcalarco, tatica fixed a few issues 20:50:05 closing in 10 seconds then, thanks stickster and asrob! 20:50:12 pcalarco, thank you 20:50:39 #endmeeting
