Hello koha-devel, This week was a very busy week in Marseille: 25 fellow developers came from Europe to work on koha. The work done was huge ! Just a few numbers: * 112 bugs have been set to sign-off * 128 patches have been signed off * 92 patches have been pushed by chris * 90 bugs have been marked "fixed" The changes on bugzilla have resulted in an astonishing number of 1140 mails in a week ! (note that's not only hackfest activity, but it's something like 4 times a standard weekly activity) ==== Hackfest news ==== This hackfest has seen some new developers joining us: * Mark Gavillet, from PTFS-Europe, made his first patches and has signed/marked fix a lot. He also learned many things, and said before leaving that it has been an invaluable boost for him. * Fridolyn Somer, from Progilone, helped a lot, and we spoke of the patches available at git.progilone.com Some of them should make their way to git.koha-community.org soon, as they are really interesting (some will remain local, as they look too specific to Lyon 2 university, the sponsoring customer) * Juan and Miguel, from Xercode in spain were here for 2 days. * Frédéric Durand, from Lyon 2, has made a lot of work testing and checking * Not really developers, but Pascale Nalon (Mines Paris tech school), Guillaume Hatt (Ecole des Chartes school) and Stéphane Delaye (BibLibre librarian/project manager) made a lot of work on french translation, as well as many testings. All other attendees were already known developers. All of us agree that it was really cool to work together in small groups of 3 or 4 Just a special thanks to Magnus, that came from Norway, and to Katrin, that came from Germany. We should send some picture we've taken very soon ! === Hacker's corner === Needs signoff: 112 bugs are awaiting for you sign-off. The number includes many many patches/fixes that BibLibre did on git.biblibre.com and that still had to be submitted. Signed-off: 35 bugs are signed off and should be commited soon by chris Patch pushed, please test : 102 bugs have been pushed recently and are awaigint to be marked "fixed" to definetly solve the bug described ! Discussion: i've sent a mail on koha-devel about some bugs that have a patch that does not apply. Some of them are very old. Unless the author of the patch (or any other volunteer) rebase and submit a working patch, i'll mark the bugzilla "fixed, wontfix" in something like 2 weeks. It's the best solution not to have bugs that stay open and remain here forever. -- Paul POULAIN http://www.biblibre.com Expert en Logiciels Libres pour l'info-doc Tel : (33) 4 91 81 35 08

I agree, with this exception: If the bug is a real bug (not an enhancement) it should be set back to "New." -- Owen -- Web Developer Athens County Public Libraries http://www.myacpl.org
So how are we tracking enhancements we would like to see then still through bugzilla? On Fri, Apr 8, 2011 at 11:38 AM, Owen Leonard <oleonard@myacpl.org> wrote:

This change would only apply to enhancements for which someone has submitted a patch and for which that patch is so out of date that it can't be considered for inclusion. Anyone who wants to give one of these bugs a second life can re-open it, but it would be much more meaningful for some sponsorship to come along with that. -- Owen -- Web Developer Athens County Public Libraries http://www.myacpl.org

I would add another exception based on David's question: Enhancement bugs should not be closed in arbitrary fashion. They probably should have the longest time allowance of all bugs given that it may take a while for someone(s) to pick up and implement them. Kind Regards, Chris
Hie, Thanks for presenting me Paul. I really had a good time in Marseille. It was a pleasure to contribute 3 days at an open source project. Has I said, the product becomes more and more stable and user friendly. I'll continue to contribute now that I'm more aware of the workflow and of git.

Just a special thanks to BibLibre for organizing and hosting the hackfest in the best way possible! Being the only Koha hacker in Scandinavia, getting to spend some time with people with similar interests every now and then is just great! Maybe we could make a European hackfest a yearly tradition? Best regards, Magnus Enger libriotech.no

How about 6 monthly ... a month ahead of each release :) Chris

That would be absolutely fine by me, it's just that I'm afraid I would not be able to travel to 2 hackfests and 1 KohaCon every year... ;-) Best regards, Magnus
Just an idea, but what about having the hackfest at the KohaCon happen right before a release! That way the release manager would be there to work with everyone on blockers and possibly get the blockers out of the way. Then 2 weeks or so after the KohaCon there would be a "release"...
From my experience the Release manager does a talk about what to expect out of the pending release anyway...
Just talking off the top of my head but that would provide for 2 travel options only and what a bang for your buck on KohaCon! On Mon, Apr 11, 2011 at 6:24 AM, Magnus Enger <magnus@enger.priv.no> wrote:

Le 11/04/2011 14:42, David Schuster a écrit : probably organize a hackfest one month before each spring release. And when i'm back on my keyboard, someone already suggested this idea... So, yes, we found very profitable for everybody this hackfest, and are thinking about organizing such a meeting once a year. In my idea, it must be an easy place to reach. For ppl coming, the flight or train was not too expensive, no jet lag, short flight duration, making the trip "easy". So I think we must keep the idea of a "local hackfest". Maybe there could be one in US too. if it were during the same week, we could work 24Hx3days (and chris or the next RM would be overwhelmed by patches to push ;-) ) Anyway, see you next year in Marseille ! -- Paul POULAIN http://www.biblibre.com Expert en Logiciels Libres pour l'info-doc Tel : (33) 4 91 81 35 08
