    colonelqubit:



     QA Chat today is in IRC  (right here!)  in about 10-15 minutes


    - 02:35:19 PM -

    - arnaud_versini has joined the room

    - 02:35:34 PM -
    Reisi007: colonelqubit: i do know Björn is not here. What about making it to Questions and answers. Need some update from me or are we finished?
    colonelqubit: Reisi007: no word from joel...might be busy lawyering
    Reisi007: Ok
    Reisi007: colonelqubit: latest possible start time for me is now
    colonelqubit: Okay, 3 is usually the cut-off for a meeting, so let's just chat for a little bit

    * colonelqubit gives Reisi007 an attendance hat

    Bugzilla Migration Update

    colonelqubit: So: Norbert has done some great work with Bugzilla. Current phase is testing out our local install and making sure that the data migrates properly

    * Reisi007 is giving colonelqubit "Chief in the office" hat

    colonelqubit: :-)
    Reisi007: WOW - progress
    colonelqubit: Oh, yes

    - arnaud_v1 has joined the room

    colonelqubit: Tollef has magically reappeared on the scene, and has gotten us a db dump
    colonelqubit: (it's basically like Christmas for us...)
    Reisi007: :-D black magic

    * Reisi007 agrees

    colonelqubit: We'll still want to do some further testing and want to script the migration process, including all of the setup of the VM for bugzilla

    * colonelqubit realizes that shm_get is here -- Anything you'd like to add?

    colonelqubit: :-)

    * shm_get is there not actively looking ... so need to chatch up what was said :-)

    colonelqubit: Just a quick summary of where we are w/Bugzilla
    Reisi007: colonelqubit: bibi gui has a dropdownlist for start and end range...
    colonelqubit: cool
    colonelqubit: brb
    shm_get: oh... so yeah testing the reloaded bugzilla to detect anomalies if any... that is from the functional part.. from the admn/infra part.. I need to script thiings and practice teh re-install/migration from scratch.. as there is quite a bit of manual poking and oops, I'm not sure I know what I'm doing 'steps' involved still

    - jmadero has joined the room

    jmadero: colonelqubit: ping
    Reisi007: Wow
    jmadero: call open
    jmadero: we doing this?
    Reisi007: Good that we habe it soon
    Reisi007: jmadero: irc tiday
    jmadero: okay then let me go into library instead
    jmadero: I'll be back - sun makes it hard to read screen
    colonelqubit: lol
    colonelqubit: need a Pixel Qi screen!
    colonelqubit: shm_get: Thanks for the hard work! I'll look at the data, etc.. after this chat
    arnaud_versini: jmadero: Hello
    arnaud_versini: jmadero: Not on law stuff ?
    colonelqubit: shm_get: have a goal about when you'd like to see the migration take place?

    - jmadero has left the room
    - jmadero has joined the room

    jmadero: okay sorry about that
    jmadero: hi all

    * colonelqubit waves

    shm_get: colonelqubit not yet... I really want to nail the 're-install from scratch as this will also serve as disaster recovery process... and if we do not do it now, I'm afraid like most things it will be put on the back burner :-)
    colonelqubit: shm_get: I agree
    colonelqubit: jmadero: (just talking about strategy + timeline for bugzilla migration)

    * Reisi007 too

    jmadero: sure
    jmadero: since I missed part of the conversation I'll refrain from commenting ;-)
    colonelqubit: shm_get: when we feel like we're getting closer, we should look at our schedules and try to plan a good time when we'll have most of us on solid ground (i.e. not flying) for the switchover
    shm_get: It depend on a lot of factor.. but I would count a couple of month probably... maybe sooner, but.. real-life can get in the way.. and there are unknown unknown (to quote an infamous Secretary of Defence :-) )
    jmadero: do we have ETA? like ideal vs. realistic?
    jmadero: we technically have the data already right?
    jmadero: through the script
    colonelqubit: jmadero: we have a dump from a ...week ago, shm_get?
    jmadero: that seems worse than the updates Bjoern is getting
    jmadero: his is up to date every hour
    jmadero: running on big Bertha
    colonelqubit: yeah, but it's a data dump
    colonelqubit: sorry, db dump
    shm_get: colonelqubit and yes.. once I feel confident that we nailed the technical aspect.. we will announce and advertise a migration planning.. so that everybody is aware of when/what/who.. and also because our user will _have_ to reset their password.. so we need to communicate way in advance
    colonelqubit: shm_get: great!

    ----> OpenID for Bugzilla

    jmadero: so I know shm_get isn't a fan of adding features right away
    jmadero: but - having openID out of the gate I think would be nice
    jmadero: like "you can reset your password OR use openID"
    jmadero: no clue if that's feasible
    colonelqubit: IIRC, it's not implemented?
    shm_get: jmadero no, because there is no such things as openid support.. the suppsoed plugin are just vapourware

    * Reisi007 has a look

    jmadero: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Bugzilla:OpenID_Auth_Plugin
    jmadero: no bueno?
    Reisi007: https://github.com/jalcine/bugzilla-openid
    jmadero: what is vapourware?
    jmadero: sounds like something you get high on
    Reisi007: Is the same
    shm_get: and the backup is a couple of week old.. but we will get a fresh one when we migrate.. in fact tollef will shutdown fdo bugzilla during the migration to make sure the backup is perfect

    * colonelqubit . o O (...because Tollef has the Power...)

    Reisi007: shm_get: sounds perfect
    shm_get: jmadero vapourware is software that is hyped but is really nothing but wind (wind-pipe)
    Reisi007: And close LibreOffice bug creation? / delete project?
    jmadero: Reisi007: yes
    jmadero: hopefully with a redirect

    --------> OpenID: Collaborate on implementation?

    colonelqubit: Suggestion: If we are looking at a roadmap of maybe 2 months, we could investigate what it would take to implement OpenID support (not necessarily impossible, if we convince other projects to fundraise w/us...)
    Reisi007: :-D
    shm_get: Reisi007 yep... once the migration is a sucess.. (we want to keep the door open for a rollback if we run into a major snag
    jmadero: colonelqubit: so if this is really desired - I know Alex said having our own OpenID setup would be "low priority"
    jmadero: so if it's dependent on that - I think no go for 2 month timeline
    Reisi007: shm_get: okay :-)
    colonelqubit: jmadero: most people are happy w/a launchpad OpenID
    colonelqubit: (even the ones that don't want to get a Facebook or GMail account)
    jmadero: isn't there some complaint about launchpad . . .?
    jmadero: I forget what it is
    colonelqubit: if you don't like Canonical, I guess
    jmadero: lol
    jmadero: but if that's manageable - I'm all for having it - I really think that would be a big + for users
    shm_get: colonelqubit in any case: the migration will occurs using vanilla bugzilla version.. I do not want to compound problems and difficulties.. once we have our own instance, under our control, we can start thinking about deploying 'patch' and plugin in production.. but
    colonelqubit: Anyhow, to stay on track here, I think investigating OpenID support for Bugzilla in parallel would be healthy, but shouldn't be a blocker on migration
    jmadero: okay - well IMHO it seems like we're on different pages
    jmadero: I like the idea
    jmadero: shm_get: is against
    shm_get: jmadero I am _not_ agaisnt openid at all
    jmadero: against having it on deployment
    jmadero: that's what I meant
    jmadero: like you'd prefer baby steps ;-)
    shm_get: jmadero it jsut does not exist today for bugzilla...
    colonelqubit: I think migration is of significant importance to us, so I vote for no OpenID at migration date
    jmadero: okay - that's fine
    jmadero: so migration is moving forward
    jmadero: okay
    colonelqubit: UNLESS we pull off some super-feat and really believe it's rock-solid
    shm_get: jmadero yes I do not want to deploy new feature _and_ migrate at the same time.. but even If I wanted there is NO openid support to deploy anyway
    jmadero: okay
    jmadero: I got it the first time ;-)
    colonelqubit: (read: if shm_get says yes)
    jmadero: but we can move on
    colonelqubit: Yep

    T-Shirt Update

    colonelqubit: Update on the T-shirts saga: I sent a replacement shirt to Hackert
    colonelqubit: crossed my fingers, did a little dance. With any luck, he'll get it
    shm_get: note: IF there is a viable openid plugin, that has been tested and working.. we _can_ 1/ migrate 2/ quickly check that we are fine so that we can release tolleft and fdo and then immediately deploy that plugin... iow if the pluign fail to deploy we still have a working migrated system
    Reisi007: :-)

    Merch Store

    Reisi007: Do we have libo merchandise up btw??
    colonelqubit: Not yet, no
    colonelqubit: I thought about it, and with all the travelling I do, I wouldn't be able to mange that stuff out of my place
    jmadero: so no big box stored at your place?
    colonelqubit: jmadero: That's not the problem, I just want to make sure that we ship promptly
    jmadero: okay
    colonelqubit: e.g. if I'm gone for a week for OSCON
    colonelqubit: but we can talk about it
    jmadero: sure - I'd like to have that done by the summer - we can do it together as I'll have a lot more time

    Impress Remote

    colonelqubit: I want to bring up Impress Remotes -- Sophie has volunteered to write up some MozTrap tests for us
    colonelqubit: kudos to her
    jmadero: yeah - I just sent an email about that
    jmadero: we'll see what Florian E says about it
    colonelqubit: k
    colonelqubit: Our good friend Florian R. (who some of you may have heard of...:-) has volunteered to help with testing on both Android and iOS. We'll get him squared away w/bluetooth adapter for testing
    jmadero: what in the world is a mini micro adapter

    * colonelqubit . o O (....very small? ...)

    jmadero: but just plugs into a normal USB port?
    colonelqubit: Right
    jmadero: allrighty
    Reisi007: Right
    Reisi007: I can test wlan now
    colonelqubit: jmadero: can be difficult to remove, sometimes
    colonelqubit: Question: On FDO, the component is listed as "Android Impress Remote" -- should we generalize that to "Impress Remote"
    Reisi007: But that is not what m meeks thinks users wants
    Reisi007: colonelqubit: +1 impress remote
    jmadero: I'll update now
    arnaud_versini: jmadero: Micro is used on phone, mini on camera I think
    colonelqubit: Reisi007: what did michael the bold say?
    jmadero: that wlan isn't what's desired
    jmadero: that it's mostly bluetooth
    jmadero: I believe
    colonelqubit: ah
    Reisi007: Bluetooth is desired over wlan
    colonelqubit: fair enough -- easier for me, don't have to poke holes in my firewall rules
    Reisi007: Was some time ago
    jmadero: what about Impress Remote (Android/macOS)
    jmadero: for component
    jmadero: or just Impress Remote
    colonelqubit: just Impress Remote
    colonelqubit: we have someone working on a FireFox OS version ...I think
    Reisi007: Just
    jmadero: done
    jmadero: cron job tonight will update BSA
    colonelqubit: nice
    jmadero: cloph_away: just to confirm - we have a cron job setup for BSA right?
    colonelqubit: that seems a little dangerous?
    cloph_away: jmadero: will have soon :-) so far I keep doing it :-)
    jmadero: kk - there's a new version and now component has changed
    jmadero: oh crap will component change break BSA?
    colonelqubit: no, I meant that if we have a cron job for it, we might not remember to test after we push a change
    colonelqubit: Or maybe I misunderstand: Is the cron job for pulling git, or just for updating from FDO?
    colonelqubit: cloph_away: ^^
    colonelqubit: Anyhow, good that we have that updated now.
    jmadero: updating from FDO I believe
    colonelqubit: good, that's a much safer script to run via cron

    UNCONFIRMED Bug Count

    colonelqubit: UNCONFIRMED Bugs: 1054
    colonelqubit: hmm....broke above 1000 again
    colonelqubit: should we try to organize a time to chew through a couple hundred of them?

    ----> Organize Bug-Triaging session

    jmadero: colonelqubit: my hope is to do this in May - I'll try to organize something but has to wait for that week
    colonelqubit: awesome
    jmadero: worst case - just 3-4 of us can spend 4 hours
    Reisi007: Sophie asked for it next week isn't it
    jmadero: over a beer
    jmadero: I can't do next week

    - cloph_away is now known as cloph

    jmadero: so if that's the case I'm out of the running
    jmadero: I'll be basically offline from next Wed. - May 2

    BugHunting session for 4.2.3

    colonelqubit: Reisi007: Sophie was talking about the BugHunting session for 4.2.3
    jmadero: which means bug count should go up further
    colonelqubit: she said:
    > So shall we push this on next week? I'll replace/remove this page
    > https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/BugHunting_Session_4.2.3
    jmadero: I mean realistically for the experienced triagers - 3-5 per hour easy
    Reisi007: Oh, okay... Bug Squash June :-P
    jmadero: probably more
    jmadero: especially if we look at enhancements - which IMHO we should just get through super fast
    jmadero: looks valid - mark as NEW
    colonelqubit: right
    jmadero: and make sure to include some note about enhancement so no promise
    jmadero: etc... etc...
    colonelqubit: jmadero is nicer than some triagers :-)

    jmadero: lol or I'm meaner
    jmadero: I don't want to get the email in 6 months
    jmadero: "YOU MARKED AS NEW WHY HASN'T IT BEEN IMPLEMENTED!!!!"
    colonelqubit: heh
    jmadero: "my idea is WONDERFUL, DO IT NOW"
    colonelqubit: Anyone been following the 'Outliner for LO' bug(s) ?
    jmadero: outliner?
    colonelqubit: in MS-Word, you can have an outline view in a pane on the left-hand side
    colonelqubit: powerful tool for people who have a long documents with lots of content/chapters/etc...
    jmadero: oh - that's cool
    colonelqubit: has been a desired feature for a while

    - MechtiIde has disconnected (Read error: Operation timed out)

    jmadero: yeah I can't follow individual wishlist items ;-)
    jmadero: toooo many
    colonelqubit: Some bug commenters are helpful, providing info and etc..
    colonelqubit: One guy said basically "Why hasn't this been implement? I'm going to start getting really vocal on all of the websites about it"
    jmadero: awesome - I want to respond "have fun"
    jmadero: buuuut in my current position
    jmadero: I should refrain
    jmadero: I have to bite my tongue a lot more these days
    colonelqubit: Another commenter was trying to talk him down, pointing out that maybe the devs didn't see exactly what he was contributing to the project, etc..
    colonelqubit: was a good diplomat

    Bugzilla Time-saving Improvements

    colonelqubit: So this brings up a good point: We often have to deal with tough users in Bugzilla

    - Papamatti has joined the room

    colonelqubit: I'm really hoping that when we have our own bugzilla we can implement some of the features we've talked about previously
    colonelqubit: but also think about features to help us and the devs read bug comments
    jmadero: colonelqubit: yeah it's on the wish list - to be able to mark useful comments, vs. pointless ones
    jmadero: and somehow highlight
    jmadero: + of course mark the one with the best description
    colonelqubit: for example: we could put some flair on bugzilla users based on category: Devs, QA team, etc..

    - agh_ has disconnected (Ping timeout: 245 seconds)

    jmadero: yeah - I think that conversation can wait until we have bugzilla up
    colonelqubit: jmadero: sure, actively flagging/upvoting is good, but something automatic is nice because it doesn't take our time
    jmadero: yeah for sure
    jmadero: so highlight automatically people with special priv.
    colonelqubit: right
    jmadero: the chosen ones
    colonelqubit: And look: If one of us sees someone who is being really helpful, we can bump them up
    jmadero: also - this would allow reports reported by devs to be automatically set to NEW
    colonelqubit: indeed
    jmadero: also maybe build in BSA type "tree" within Bugzilla itself
    jmadero: with an option to skip for those who have priv.
    jmadero: so it automatically triages
    jmadero: in terms of priority and severity
    jmadero: lots of nifty things that can be done
    jmadero: I love making to do lists for you colonelqubit
    jmadero: it makes my shitty days 100x better
    colonelqubit: heh


    Bibisect-GUI

    colonelqubit: Reisi007: update on bibisect-gui? I'm installing the package now
    jmadero: I haven't tried to install again - I couldn't get it to work in Linux
    Reisi007: Okay, just a tiny update - implemented jmadero feature request
    jmadero: but an update was done so maybe fixed
    colonelqubit: pancakes?
    Reisi007: Mono is needed, so it's best to install the monodevelop ide
    Reisi007: And start the skript
    Reisi007: Ubuntu has a bug with a font (jmadero's error)
    jmadero: Reisi007: I removed the font and had same problem
    Reisi007: Should be fixed with 14.04
    jmadero: it wouldn't load
    jmadero: but I'll try again when I have time
    Reisi007: ?? Okay... TODO: Investigate over easter
    Reisi007: The build is the very same on linux and win and it is working on Win, so it has to be your setup :-P
    jmadero: didn't easter pass already....
    colonelqubit: ACTION: Florian R. will make bibisect-gui work on Ubuntu....with Joel
    jmadero: not over easter though
    colonelqubit: jmadero: Next sunday, I think
    jmadero: May/june
    jmadero: May - August my hours are going down to 1/3 what they are now so that's when I can get pounded with requests
    colonelqubit: jmadero: don't worry, no due-date on that action item
    colonelqubit: ACTION: Robinson will talk to other orgs that deploy Bugzilla about implementing (funding?) OpenID support

    Last Call

    colonelqubit: Anyone else have QA-related topics?
    jmadero: new RC is coming - please try to install
    jmadero: play with it
    colonelqubit: (I have one that's more general LO to bring up, before we end)
    jmadero: that's it from my side
    colonelqubit: Reisi007: anything?
    Reisi007: One thing

    SI-GUI

    Reisi007: i updated si- gui - online version update
    colonelqubit: online version?
    Reisi007: Everyone could put/update branches
    Reisi007: Or latest Apache OO version
    Reisi007: Online update (branch-xx daily)
    colonelqubit: ah, ok
    Reisi007: No software update needed (any more??)
    Reisi007: Maybe one l10n and done ;-)
    colonelqubit: cool!
    Reisi007: :-)
    Reisi007: Volunteers to update the update document?
    Reisi007: (Do not have the link ATM)
    colonelqubit: do you need translation help, or?
    colonelqubit: Reisi007: ^^
    Reisi007: Nope, update the branch- urls twice a year
    Reisi007: I will forget
    colonelqubit: Hmm... can we make a note in the Release process somewhere to email you?
    colonelqubit: (assuming that would be frequent enough)
    Reisi007: When a new branch is tagged (eg 4.3)
    Reisi007: That would be enough
    Reisi007: (Or when you switch a win buildbot to a new branch)
    colonelqubit: ah, ok
    colonelqubit: Okay, couple things from me

    LibreOffice US: New IRC channel #libreoffice-us

    colonelqubit: First: new IRC channel #libreoffice -us for US-related chatter, outreach, marketing, etc...
    colonelqubit: (#libreoffice-us)
    colonelqubit: Hopefully Joel and I will be able to recruit some new talent from the US to join the QA Team :-)

    LibreOffice Swag - for confs

    colonelqubit: Second, I'm investigating LibreOffice swag (stickers, brochures, etc... stuff to hand-out)
    colonelqubit: Reisi007: Were you at CeBIT?
    Reisi007: Nope
    Reisi007: Only my program colonelqubit
    colonelqubit: :-)
    colonelqubit: It's like your child...wandering, unattended all over the world
    colonelqubit: Reisi007: Any suggestions re: swag to hand-out at conferences? The basics are stickers, brochures...
    colonelqubit: I might investigate pens, 'cause those are a handy item to hold on to
    jmadero: yeah pens - cheap things are good
    jmadero: I really like the idea of USB's
    jmadero: but more expensive
    colonelqubit: jmadero: what do you think about pens that say "When the power goes out, use this analog edition of LibreOffice"
    jmadero: lol clever
    colonelqubit: "Download the electronic version online -- it never runs out of ink!"

    - Papamatti has disconnected (Quit: Papamatti)

    jmadero: lol yeah that's awesome
    colonelqubit: "Inside every LibreOffice pen lives a tiny Joren.
    He will break your shit."
    jmadero: "report said "broken shit" to www.bugs.documentfoundation.org"
    colonelqubit: If we ever build a tool to do fuzz-testing on libreoffice, we should definitely name it 'joren'
    colonelqubit: Whenever it crashes the binary, it can send out alerts like "Joren wins again!" "Joren is in your treehouse, breaking your collectable plates!"
    colonelqubit: "Joren laughs at you"
    colonelqubit: Okay, that's all I have
    colonelqubit: jmadero, Reisi007: Anything else?
    jmadero: none here

    ODF Badges from FSF

    colonelqubit: Ran across some nice ODF badges here: https://www.fsf.org/campaigns/opendocument/spread
    jmadero: lol
    colonelqubit: jmadero: here's my first draft of badges for the DocLiberation site: <not ready for primetime yet>
    jmadero: where would you put those?
    jmadero: nice these are awesome
    colonelqubit: The Excel...lent one is so corny
    jmadero: oh yes
    jmadero: I thought the same

    - arnaud_v1 has disconnected (Quit: arnaud_v1)

    colonelqubit: Okay, thanks for the meeting!
    jmadero: thanks colonelqubit
    jmadero: next meeting I won't be able to attend
    jmadero: after that - for the length of the summer
    jmadero: much more attentive :-D
