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

Hey,
Here's a small patch to fix two trivial issues with attributes in the
stage branch of the webui. I guess this was things lost during a merge.
(Note that package attributes are still not working correctly, but I
sent a patch that could help for this)

Hi,
FYI, in a 'seeking danger' mood I just posted that to ruby-devel,
you might also be interested. I am wearing my helmet ;-)

I simply could not resist. I am looking forward to discussing. ]

I stopped watching it after the explanation of the canvas, I hope I
did not miss important things, but really it was enough for me.
Google of course promotes the web and web apps because its their ecosystem
and they really make good money out of it. From the google perspective its
clear, but from our?
I know, customers are asking for web apps, webapps are cool. They are cross
platform and they are 'always there', you just need a browser. Other benefits?
Hmmm. No standards in GUI elements, as a result no "standard GUIs", problems
with security, performance, local data keeping, accessability etc. - all these
kind of problems are not taken into account. The customer will notice these
later, although we already went through all that.
But what me as a developer bothers most is: Google wants us to redo from start,
today it's called Javascript, not BASIC as it was called earlier, the language
where people who claim they're software development experts tell us that they
produce well tested, well engineered, reusable, maintainable and 'nice' code
which is portable.
All progress we did with object orientation over the years, with patterns for
example is thrown away with Javascript. Instead we return into dark times without
versioned libraries for example which don't provide real interfaces. Well, ok,
I know, Rails for example is really going into the right direction, but still:
Behind that we often stumble through a dark swamp of Javascript. Or who here
in the audience has ever fixed a bug in jquery for example?
Noone would argue that we have great alternatives on the desktop. With todays
Qt or GTK toolkits nobody would go on a stage and show the "canvas example"
because it is laughable to ask for applause for drawing a line on a canvas.
Thats standard for years, using the device specific benefits like acceleration.
Speaking about cross platform, yeah, you probably know that the browsers, in
which one plays the Javascript are implemented with one of these toolkits,
so what is really portable?
I claim that the only reason why people really want webapps is: They are fed
up with installing stuff. Installing and updating stuff on a machine is pain,
early windows versions did a great job to poison all computer users with the
software-install-does-not-really-work trauma. But wait, browsers still need to
be installed locally. But that is not so bad as they have these neat feature
that you only have to click "ok" if it tells you that its already old and can
be replaced.
All I am wondering about: I thought WE are the experts in software management?
I know we have really great tools for that. So we have all bits and peaces
together to make it completely easy and enjoyable for users to update their
desktop (or personal device) software. We are not yet there, which I could
experience with Fate for example where people always complained when they
were asked to update. Fate was not asking "Do you want me to quickly upgrade
myself?" because it was not easy to implement. I think we could make these
kind of things easy, if we would investigate in that, rather than in latest
web stuff.
BTW, please do not associate desktop software with "not using the cloud" or
internet or so. Everything is possible of course.
Please also be sure to check out for example
http://labs.trolltech.com/blogs/2009/05/13/qt-declarative-ui/
and see how little code is needed to do really breathtaking UIs with todays
(gui) toolkits. How long will Javascript need to catch up? Yes, I know, you
can have Win3.11 in Javascript - but who really is asking for ? ;-)
regards,
Klaas

- Vincent was confrontated with a time consuming SLED
GNOME L3 bug. Alex Laus team was taking over, thanks,
but there seems not to be a reliable commitment on this.
- Darix got the request to maintain additional ruby packages
on the SLE SDK to the ones he already has. These packages
are used with our commercial projects like SUSE Studio,
WebYast, Hawk and SLMS, as well as the OBS. I am not happy
with additional packages on SLE for Darix. Solution: Will
bring it up on the ruby-devel list and ask for help for
Darix.
- I still don't really love git. Well, well...
[GREEN]
- FOSDEM organsiation tasks
- investigated a bit around features for 11.3
- Implemented Twitter and HTTP for Hermes, approaching a
release.
- started to think and discuss about Linuxtag
- prepared a talk for Siemens about free software and
the openSUSE project, held in front of around 50 mainly
Solaris developers. Interesting experience, nice feedback.
- Booster Sprint Meeting, result here:
http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-boosters/2010-01/msg00028.html
- Upstream Fun: There is a new mailinglist kde-finance-apps around
synergies with apps like KMyMoney, Scrooge, Kraft and friends.
That starts really promising!
Plan:
- FOSDEM preparation
- Hermes Deployment
- Hermes Release
