Paul,
Am I right if I say that BibLibre will be the company mostly concerned impacted by this rule ? Checking numbers. Some numbers: there are 131 patches waiting for signoff or QA. 52 are from BibLibre (40%) Yes, because I already informed Elliott that under no circumstances would I accept him QAing a patch by ByWater. You're the RM, so you decide, but I think it's not a good decision (and I've explained many times why I think that: QA is technical-oriented. For now, I trust Elliott to do QA exactly in the same way for ByWater
Le 29/11/2012 16:59, Jared Camins-Esakov a écrit : patches than he will do for others). However, I can promise Jonathan and me will quickly take care of what's waiting for QA from outside BibLibre.
Agreed. At some point there may be no choice. I'm pretty sure we have had a backlog in the Signed Off queue for a long time, possibly since always (Chris has a nice graph somewhere, but I don't know where). Not since always, the "need QA" queue has been empty for weeks before my summer holiday.
In light of that, I think two months would be reasonable. 2 months ? That's really a long period, considering we've a 6 months release cycle, with Feature & String Freeze. That let only a short time for New Features and Enhancements I was thinking of 2 ... weeks. Let's cut the fruit in two (frenchism ?) and say one month ?
Also, it's worth pointing out that we have a QA *team*. If there's a BibLibre patch that's been signed off that isn't getting QAed, it is absolutely reasonable for you to e-mail the koha-devel list a message something like: "[QA] Does anyone have time to review poor benighted bug XXXX?" By default (at least for me), the "signed off" list is organised by date. I've the assignee & changed column in the result list, it's trivial to see who did what, and when it has been signed-off. I can ask on the list, and will do, but I think it should not be necessary. (and for now, i'll head to QA non-biblibre old patches) -- Paul POULAIN - Associé-gérant Tel : (33) 4 91 81 35 08 http://www.biblibre.com Logiciels Libres pour les bibliothèques et les centres de documentation
