Koha 3.10, sign-off request & question
Hello everybody, A few developer-specific news (I plan to write my monthly RM newsletter tomorrow, with more general-interest news) * I spent a lot of time in the last days QAing & pushing all bugfixes that should be included in Koha 3.10. In the "passed QA" queue and in the "signed-off" queue, there's nothing that need to be pushed before 3.10 (except a few signed-off during last european night; I'll take care of them soon) * There are some patches that require everyone attention to release a stable 3.10. Here is the list of patches that need signoff: 8919 ExtendedPatronAttributes not populated from LDAP 8832 can't enter a tax rate on vendor or when ordering 8636 Some dependencies are not listed by the installer 8378 <fine> syntax not working on overdues anymore 8945 Koha 3.10 Help Files Update 8800 SpecifyDueDate && useDaysMode=Datedue wrong behaviour 8746 rebuild_zebra_sliced.sh don't work where Record length of 106041 is larger than the MARC spec allows 4381 systempreference hide_marc = ON results in erroneous behaviour of repeatable fields and subfields 8971 Sort holds queue report using DataTables 8955 Self checkout should degrade gracefully with JavaScript turned off 8942 Translation process breaks javascript in calendar.inc 8918 ILS-DI: HoldTitle and HoldItem do not calculate rank of hold 8915 Referential integrity constraints and InnoDB vs MyISAM storage engine 8896 Delete serials no more missing from missinglist 8840 ubuntu-pkg-check.sh fix and extend functionality 8804 Quiet errors in the log from Auth.pm 8750 Chronological terms authorities not correctly indexed 8369 default_branch_circ_rule and default_circ_rules tables useless 7358 basket.pl : it is possible to affect a closed basket to a closed basketgroup 6428 refered column 'items.coded_location_qualifier' does not exist 5801 C4::Circulation::_GetCircControlBranch doesn't work in opac-reserve.pl 4481 Search's Limit to Available filters out many available items 2832 Make alphabet localizable I'd like to see all of them for 3.10, so, please signoff !!! * In the patch queue, there are also many enhancements have been signed-off and/or QAed, that could be pushed, I don't think it's good to let them pending for a long time. That's why I suggest we immediately branch 3.10.x on git. Once it's done, Jared will be responsible to push to master (starting his work for 3.12), I'll keep 3.10.x until 3.10.0 is released (exactly like RMaint does for 3.8.x : by cherry picking patches from master). I'll take care of communicating with RM to promote bugfixes that should be pushed urgently for 3.10.0. I spoke of this idea a while ago with Jared, and he agrees with this idea. -- 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
Hello from the RM-Elect, * In the patch queue, there are also many enhancements have been
signed-off and/or QAed, that could be pushed, I don't think it's good to let them pending for a long time. That's why I suggest we immediately branch 3.10.x on git. Once it's done, Jared will be responsible to push to master (starting his work for 3.12), I'll keep 3.10.x until 3.10.0 is released (exactly like RMaint does for 3.8.x : by cherry picking patches from master). I'll take care of communicating with RM to promote bugfixes that should be pushed urgently for 3.10.0. I spoke of this idea a while ago with Jared, and he agrees with this idea.
This makes sense to me. Up until 3.10 is released, my priority will be bug fixes, bug fixes, and bug fixes. Any bugfixes destined for 3.10 will take priority over bugfixes destined for 3.12, which will take priority over enhancements. Also, I will not push large enhancements or patches that make copious string changes to 3.12 during the 3.10 string freeze so that we can avoid merge conflicts for backporting to 3.10. One note: I will not be QAing signed-off patches. That is what the QA team is for. Any patches reviewed by the 3.12 QA team should be versioned for 3.12 in bugzilla so that I can recognize them as such.
