Threads in hermes mails
by Vincent Untz 14 May '11

14 May '11

Hey, I love hermes mails, but I would love them even more if the mails for one request where all grouped in a thread. So here's my completely untested attempt for this (and I'm not sure I'm still fluent in perl, so there might be some stupid errors). Is there any way to easily test this kind of things? Cheers, Vincent -- Les gens heureux ne sont pas pressés.

FOSDEM 2010
by Henne Vogelsang 11 Jan '10

11 Jan '10

Brothers, the FOSDEM Team wants to try something new (i like that!) for the upcoming instance. Let me just quote the relevant parts of the announcement mail from Pascal: > The next edition is 6+7 February 2010, and it's also our 10th edition. > As such, we've been reflecting on the evolution of the event (in the > sense that our mission and what it has become is rather a platform for > FOSS projects, much more than just a conference, or at least that's > what we'd like FOSDEM to become), and we are introducing a change > regarding Developer Rooms for distribution projects. > > We would like to push the envelope of our mission even further by > organizing something along the lines of a "distribution summit" during > FOSDEM 2010 (incidentally, I had that idea long before I heard of the > "distrosummit" that will be held at linuxconf.au, a few weeks before > FOSDEM but hey, it's far away, and FOSDEM is the European event of the > year ;D). > > The idea is that rather than having several distributions with their > own respective and individual Developer Room, we will host mixed > conference rooms where talks and sessions will be organized _by > topic_, with contributors from all distributions attending and > participating. >[...] > To dive into a little more detail: > * 3 (large) rooms will be allocated for that "distro summit" >* sessions will be scheduled by topic (see below) >* every project is welcome to join in :) > > Topics are something I need your feedback and ideas on: whatever you > think is appropriate as a topic that is recurring issue for > distributions (governance, feature tracking, trust mechanisms, > ambassadors, ...), or something where you would like to present your > solutions for specific tasks to other distributions (e.g. package > building, translations, bug tracking, community infrastructure, ...), > especially if you're interested in feedback, ideas and collaboration > from and with other projects... we'd love to hear about it :) > [...] > The most practical option will be to subscribe to a mailing-list: > http://lists.fosdem.org/mailman/listinfo/dist2010 > And we will be able to discuss details, ideas, as well as the schedule > there. So far only very little discussion has happened around this topic. Mostly people expressed that they liked or disliked it. Which is not really the point i think. Its the FOSDEM's team event. They do all the hard work and should be the driving force behind how it's organized. If they want to try something new we should help them succeed. Thats why i would like to brainstorm a bit about tracks with you and then we can bring them over to the dist2010 list. Let me start: 1. Build Systems I would like to see a build system track. Where different distributions can introduce theirs and the concepts behind it. Including, but not limited to, how contributions, maintenance, branching, image building etc are handled. I think this is a great topic for distros to stimulate each other. I think all of us could do something here for the OBS. From conceptual talks down to hands one hacking stuff. I could do a talk about the collaboration features of the OBS and/or one about our distribution setup in it. 2. Upstream I would also like to have an Upstream track where the whole distro<>upstream relation is discussed. Including release cycles, contributions, alteration etc. Possible contributions from us would be vuntz/will/lubos talking about how we handle the desktops or we could get one of the kernel guys to talk about that. Brainstorm please! :) Henne -- Henne Vogelsang, openSUSE.

Hi, as we discussed on the meeting, here are the patches for retrospectiva. Some brief description: 0001-Showing-goals-in-stories-page-in-agile_pm.patch Shows goal in stories list. Patch sent upstream: http://retrospectiva.org/tickets/741 0002-Showing-stories-in-goals-listing-in-agile_pm.patch Shows stories in goals list. Patch sent upstream: http://retrospectiva.org/tickets/742 0003-Stories-follow-goal-to-the-new-sprint-in-agile_pm.patch Unfinished stories will be moved to the new sprint when goal they belong to is moved. Patch sent upstream: http://retrospectiva.org/tickets/743 0004-Disabling-animation.patch Disabling animation on goals page that some of you complained about. Not really sure whether we want this, maybe we should vote. Certainly wouldn't go to the upstream. -- Michal HRUSECKY SUSE LINUX, s.r.o openSUSE Boosters Team Lihovarska 1060/12 PGP 0xFED656F6 19000 Praha 9 mhrusecky[at]suse.cz Czech Republic http://michal.hrusecky.net http://www.suse.cz

retrospectiva delete
by Stephan Kulow 15 Dec '09

15 Dec '09

Hi, As I just learned the hard way: deleting "X-Mas Fun" milestone deletes all stories and goals. I really wonder why - I guess I don't understand the tool ;( I asked Adrian to put the yesterback backup in place, so there might be things you need to redo. Sorry.

[amber] - the trainees do not really learn to program, but are just dumped on problems. It's amazing what they make out of it, but still their potential can be used in much larger degree if someone explained e.g. rails basics to them ;( [green] - brain storming with Tom what we want from the project main page - made up some mockup page (it's a skeleton to fix :) - fix up the status page to port my perl stuff to rails (completed S7) - Some work on S10 - created Source ISOS for 11.2 - Helping Andrea to submit LXDE - Helping Jan to do the attributes stuff "right" -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-boosters+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-boosters+help(a)opensuse.org
