[Koha-devel] Hacker's corner week 10

[Paul Poulain]

Hello all,

As announced during the last IRC meeting, i'll try to write a weekly
summary about bugzilla/developer activity : bugs submitted, patches
submitted,...
Let me know if you find this handfull, if you'd like to see another
information, i'll do my best to report what is interesting !

I'll try to announce usually :
* what's new since last week
* what's still waiting

For this 1st mail, i'll concentrate on what's waiting. In one word: it's
huge, *WE NEED YOU*.
Just a few numbers = 102 bugs are "patch pushed" and are waiting for
someone to close them after checking the bug or the feature is OK in master.
149 bugs are "waiting sign-off": remember Koha 3.4 should be released on
late april, and it would be too bad if so many patches were not
integrated just because they have not been signed-off by anyone !

I've added some links on http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Bugzilla
that will let you see the details of what's summarized in this mail.

1- bugs closed
=========
19 bugs were closed last week.

2- bugs pushed to close
==============
There are 102 bugs that have a patch pushed and require someone to check
and close the bug.
The oldest is the 1883, and there are some critical ones, like the 5423,
5611, 4141, 4857, 5041, 5824.

3- bugs to sign-off
===========
There are 149 bugs to sign-off.
#2795 = The oldest is also a CRI one Offline circ tries to circ on
biblio-level "itemtype"
<http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=2975>
#3624 = a BLO one ! a patch has been submitted to update the DB
structure. Without this patch, the DB is inconsistent on update
#5449 = another BLO one ! JSON malformed in Koha - Blocker with jQuery
1.4.x <http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=5449>
There are 7 CRI, that are waiting for someone to check = 2975, 3652,
4276, 4993, 5027, 5379, 5646.
But the 149 are worth a check, of course.

4- to discuss
========
I also have found that those bugs should/could be discussed
#5009 = Dobrica Pavlinusic <mailto:dpavlin at rot13.org> has submitted a
patch to add autocomplete="off" to borrowernumbers and barcode forms
Owen has closed the bug, I think it's worth more investigation. Please
give your opinion !
#5390 = library choice not remaining when searching opac. Nicole E. ask
an interesting question, jump in the discussion & send a patch if you've
an idea!
#5533 = marking item lost diff in two places, same thing, jump in the
thread Nicole starts !

PS: (once again) congratulations to chris_c => i've searched for patches
signed-off waiting (waiting to move to "pushed, pls test"). It's easy,
there are only 3, 2 of them being only a few hours old, and probably not
here anymore when you'll read this mail.

HTH
