NAV status meeting minutes 2008-10-23 ===================================== Jørgen ------ * Fixed report list bug (random sort order), reduced bloat in the process. * Moved report files to fit with new structure proposed by jodal. * (re)Centered search result table captions. * Advanced search form close bug fixed (LP#276246). * Report now invalidates result cache if report.conf is modified. * Cache timestamp displayed in search results. * Refactored report JavaScript to use jQuery. * Looking forward to bugsquashing today. Thomas ------ * Testing pping/servicemon, attempting to automatically provoke the bug described in LP#258321. - Committed a patch that seems to work, for reasons unknown. Patch needs more work. - Will try to provoke the bug while running strace on the processes. * Fixed reported bugs in alert engine. Morten ------ * Werner visited last Monday, working on the Debian package. - He has published a working nav_3.5.0b1 package in his etch-test repository, but not announced it yet. - I have installed this on four beta-test volunteers' servers. - Werner is working on some more packaging details to better comply with Debian standards, which will increase our chances of successful upload to Debian unstable archives. - Discussed ideas for improving verification of database schema upgrades. One idea is to implement a db table that tracks the schema version, and is the last to be updated in a schema upgrade transaction. * Fixed concurrency issues in getDeviceData's ArpHandler, and related issues that were discovered during debugging. * Resumed work on the hp-switchstack blueprint (https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nav/+spec/remove-hp-switchstack-hack) - Made some patches for snmptrapd/makecricketconfig/arnold, which John-Magne should review. * Suggestion to write a blueprint for removing forgetSQL entirely from NAV. * Suggestion to write a script to pull launchpad bugtracker numbers from Mercurial changelog, pull bug report titles from launchpad and compose a bugfix-changelog suitable for inclusion in NAV's CHANGES file. John-Magne ---------- * Present, but has not made any NAV-related progress in a while. Discussion ---------- Stein Magnus has proposed some changes to the way our source code headers are made up. Constructive debate at meeting, conclusions will be posted in Stein Magnus' thread at nav-dev. -- mvh Morten Brekkevold UNINETT

22 bugs currently targed for b2
by Vidar Faltinsen 20 Oct '08

20 Oct '08

Dear developers, I see 22 bugs targeted for b2. Morten told me the b2 date will be postponed one week, probably till Oct 28. I hope all these bugs will have fix committed by then. Keep up the good work, folks :) We then have max one week to set the final 3.5 release, that is Nov 04. Morten then has a couple of days for installing the release on all the verktoykasse before he leaves for the lisa conference. Remember there is a NAV/verktøykasse gathering Nov 19. Feel free to attend, at least on the NAV part! Lunch is on me, give me a hint, https://ow.feide.no/gigacampus:samling:vk_des_2008 cheers - Vidar

Status meeting minutes, 9 October 2008

Status meeting minutes, 9 October 2008 ====================================== Magnus ------ * Last finish on Alert Profiles, "it works". * Been testing for bugs. * Still lots of bugs to fix in the new Device History tool. "Register error event" not yet implemented. Jørgen ------ * Finished implementing caching + summing in time for 3.5.0b1 * Bugs in report system have been reported, will be working on these next. Kristian -------- * Currently refactoring network explorer, completing the search function. Thomas ------ * Been busy with school projects. * Will prioritize the pping/servicemon stability bug next (LP#258321). Morten ------ * Mostly working on merging, testing and fixing of the code to release 3.5.0b1. A two day internal seminar delayed the release further, which in total was delayed one week. * No feedback on the beta release yet. Still waiting for Werner's Debian package so we have something to ship to our beta testers. * Assigned several high-priority bugs to self. Hoping to have time to fix all of them in time for the 3.5.0 final release. Discussion ---------- Launchpad issues: We can paste changelog info into release details, but where does it show up in the release page? Nowhere, it seems. Quick look at http://help.launchpad.net seems to suggest that changelogs and release notes can/should be uploaded as separate files in the release. Still doesn't explain what the changelog textarea in the release details form is used for. Should probably send a support question to the Launchpad team. Various network weather maps from http://drift.uninett.no/kart/ were demoed. Olav Kvittem has submitted a project to Sør-Trøndelag University College, which aims to develop some sort of OpenStreetMap+NAV mashup. -- mvh Morten Brekkevold UNINETT
