Dev Meeting

Ajay and I discussed this briefly via email, but I'd like to toss the
idea to the group for consideration.

Ajay mentioned a webex, but I'd also like to suggest perhaps a meeting
via IRC.  IRC would allow us to log all the text, which could then be
condensed into minutes of the meeting.

What do you guys think?  Any suggestions for IRC server/channel?

Thanks,


drew

I don't mind meeting on IRC (it's actually more preferrable for me than
a WebEx). However for the meeting to be useful for everyone involved I
would still recommend having an agenda.

We could start with requirements for the system. It may be useful to
have put that on Wiki somewhere. However, as a cheapiest solution
everyone  could just toss drafts of the requirements into this list.
Then we need another person to fish these drafts from the mailing list
archives, compile a single version of that and go from there. Having a
document to discuss will greatly improve productivity of such a meeting.

Do you wanna share this with us? If you have any write-ups can you
please post a link so that we read them prior to the discussion?

For a meeting time, I suggest Saturday May 6th GMT 1700.

Given the variety of timezones we have, this breaks down as:

GMT-8: 0900 (9am Saturday morning)
GMT-5: 1200 (12pm Saturday noon)
GMT: 1700 (5pm Saturday afternoon)
GMT+1: 1800 (6pm Saturday evening)

I realize this is a little quick, so if we need to push it out, that's
fine.  Given the various timezones, and other personal commitments, I'd
imagine a weekend will probably be better for everyone.  Feel free to
comment.

I'm with Vlad here...I'd like to see whatever documentation is available
prior to the meeting, if possible.  If it can't be posted anywhere,
perhaps just a tarball of what currently exists emailed to the list?
Dunno if attachments are allowed here.

Thanks,


drew

Anyway, I don't want to hold you guys, so go ahead and do this. I would
like to read the IRC log afterwards.

I guess that the meeting is then on irc://chat.freenode.net/subissue

irc://freenode.net timed out for me, and since the freenode.net website
referred to chat.freenode.net I tried that instead - which worked for
me. The channel is obviously #subissue :)

I hope people will be using nicks that relate to their email address or
their real name.

BTW: I am currently using Trac for my projects, but liked the idea that
installing subversion was all that would be needed in terms of backbone.
A missing feature for all the project/issue tracking systems (at least
the free and/or open sourced ones) are the lack of updating the user
about which issues has been fixed since last update (when updating the
source). I think this is an extremely useful feature, since it tells you
what to expect from the source you are using. Since issues and source
are closely related with subissue implemented I'd love to see a way to
report back the progress... Maybe this is an extension for TortoiseSVN
for svn-servers using the subissue plugin? Maybe the whole
project-tracking GUI could be implemented as an extension to TSVN? Even
configuration perhaps? I am using TSVN or alternatively the Subclipse
extension for Eclipse. I guess that both of these could have a subissue
extension.

Regards,
Ronny

Hi,
I've been watching this list for over a year now.  Glad to see some
activity getting going!  We are using Trac (projects.edgewall.com/trac)
here very successfully.  For those who haven't seen Trac it is a Python,
web based ticketing program with some nice integration to SVN.  It
allows browsing of the repo, displaying the SVN changesets as part of a
project timeline and linking from tickets and the wiki to SVN changesets.

There has been a bit of discussion in Trac about using various backends
for the ticket storage.  Currently I think it defaults to SQLite but
there is a plugin to use PostGresql.  How about the idea of writing a
plugin backend for Trac that uses SVN as the backend?  Trac is evolving
very nicely and has recently been refactored to give a nicer plugin
architecture.  The advantage of doing subissue as a plugin for trac is
you already get all the features (and plugins) of Trac for free and one
can concentrate on the interesting work (the repo backend) without the
distraction of having to invent all that gui.  It is already possible to
radically alter the functionality of Trac with other plugins and patches
  so if one does not like the way something works that can be dealt with
as a separate issue.

Looking forward to seeing this progress.

Regards,
Felix
