So, My University Final exams just started. I'll be free before the "Coding Period officially begins" (15 May) of GSoC |
| 00:35 |
|
I have no plans that could be a cause for absence for the next 3 months after that |
| 00:35 |
walterbender |
that works |
| 00:35 |
octamois |
I would like to mention few of my plans! |
| 00:36 |
|
I will be working slow in the first week of coding. |
| 00:36 |
|
I will to cover up before time for that |
| 00:37 |
|
I will be unavailable on 28,29,30 to attend any meeting, if held. |
| 00:37 |
|
(I have a interview for a research university, thus I will be consumed) |
| 00:38 |
Quozl |
listens |
| 00:38 |
Pro-Panda |
Quozl: Should we discuss the project timeline in this meet in the Devel meet ? |
| 00:38 |
octamois |
Rest, I will be always available. Irrespective of anything happens. |
| 00:38 |
Pro-Panda |
* or in the Devel meet ? |
| 00:38 |
yashagrawal3 |
My university exams will be over by 5th of may. I will posting my first blog by then. Sorry for delay! |
| 00:39 |
Quozl |
Pro-Panda: there's no time schedule for the Sugar Labs project; it will be done when it is done, so whatever you decide as a schedule for your GSoC project should be fine. |
| 00:39 |
Pro-Panda |
Quozl: cool |
| 00:40 |
Quozl |
Pro-Panda: there are issue interdependencies though, which may help you understand what things to do in what order in your GSoC project. |
| 00:40 |
octamois |
Pro-Panda: , walterbender: Will be have separate meeting for project distribution? |
| 00:40 |
Quozl |
octamois: what's project distribution? |
| 00:41 |
Pro-Panda |
Quozl: Yes, Sorry, I meant to discuss the amount of time which I intend to spend on each port. |
| 00:41 |
walterbender |
we need to get the toolkit working first as it is a dependency for the activtities and suagr |
| 00:43 |
Quozl |
Pro-Panda: an estimate seems unlikely to be useful; you might instead spend time where it is needed, in the dependency order. |
| 00:43 |
|
walterbender: it looks like the toolkit is working with python 3; is that right Pro-Panda? |
| 00:43 |
Pro-Panda |
Quozl: yes |
| 00:44 |
|
Except that I haven't been able to yet fix the critical dependency to jarabe |
| 00:44 |
|
:( |
| 00:44 |
octamois |
listens |
| 00:44 |
Quozl |
Pro-Panda: octamois: so in planning your work, figure out if there are any goals in the Sugar Labs project issues that you need help with or expect others to do, and begin those communications. |
| 00:45 |
Pro-Panda |
Quozl: Sure |
| 00:45 |
octamois |
Quozl: Definitely |
| 00:46 |
Pro-Panda |
Can we move to discussing regarding the port of Sugar Toolkit ? |
| 00:46 |
Quozl |
If you've finished discussing your GSoC projects, sure. |
| 00:46 |
Pro-Panda |
Anything else we might have to discuss on schedules ? |
| 00:47 |
octamois |
What are project expectation before Phase 1 evaluations ? |
| 00:47 |
Pro-Panda |
Quozl: The overlap is really fine :D |
| 00:47 |
Quozl |
Pro-Panda: in my mind is a venn diagram, with a clear intersection. ;-) |
| 00:48 |
Pro-Panda |
Quozl: +1 :-D |
| 00:48 |
|
#topic Sugar-Toolkit port |

Pro-Panda |
I have been able to port the Sugar Toolkit to six (compatible with both Python 2 and Python 3). Except that I couldn't yet figure out a way to fix the dependency to jarabe |
| 00:49 |
Quozl |
Pro-Panda: hang on a minute. walterbender: can you answer octamois question about phase 1 evaluations? |
| 00:50 |
Pro-Panda |
octamois: Sorry, and +1 |
| 00:50 |
walterbender |
I will answer it based on whatever we decide in terms of the work |
| 00:52 |
Quozl |
Pro-Panda: the dependency on Jarabe was made, somewhat against my wishes, by a previous GCi or GSoC project participant. It's uneconomic because it forces us to provide both a Python 2 and Python 3 build of jarabe (repository name sugar). So to avoid that uneconomic outcome, it is better to fix it. |
| 00:52 |
walterbender |
+1 |
| 00:53 |
octamois |
+1 |
| 00:53 |
walterbender |
doesn't recall when the dependency was made |
| 00:53 |
Quozl |
Pro-Panda: I've not looked at it in detail, but the _functionality_ provided by jarabe.model.shell needed by popwindow.py should be moved to the toolkit. |
| 00:53 |
Pro-Panda |
Quozl: agreed. I tried making a fix earlier, I will continue the same immediately as my exams are over |
| 00:54 |
Quozl |
Pro-Panda: if anyone else fixes it, i'm fine with that too. no reason to force you to do it. |
| 00:54 |
walterbender |
maybe that is something we can have octamois look into while you are working on your exams |
| 00:55 |
Pro-Panda |
Quozl, walterbender: Sure |
| 00:55 |
walterbender |
seems if we get that done, we unlock a lot |

| 00:56 |
Pro-Panda |
walterbender: +1 |
| 00:57 |
|
Quozl: Sure, I'll do it :-) |
| 00:58 |
Quozl |
Oh, it looks easy. |
| 00:58 |
Pro-Panda |
"sugar3.graphics.popwindow" isn't used in any of the activities, so their port can also be done simultaneously. |
| 00:58 |
Quozl |
ShellModel.push_modal and pop_modal only increment and decrement a counter. It looks like the author assumed the counter would be shared with the shell, but as the shell is in a different process it achieves NOTHING. |
| 00:59 |
|
So it looks like the calls and the import can just be ripped out. |
| 00:59 |
Pro-Panda |
also assumed the same :( |
| 00:59 |
Quozl |
Good. Rip it out and test. Commit. Push. ;-) |
| 01:00 |
yashagrawal3 |
leaves for last minute revision, has to give examination in an hour. |
| 01:00 |
octamois |
afk, I have early class to attend and going to get ready and then travel, I will look the logs |
| 01:00 |
Pro-Panda |
Quozl: Sure :-D |
| 01:00 |
Quozl |
Let this be a lesson to you; if I say something looks like a problem, it might be not much of a problem at all. |
| 01:00 |
octamois |
Can I take the leave? |
| 01:00 |
Quozl |
octamois: bye. |
| 01:00 |
|
yashagrawal3: bye. |
| 01:00 |
Pro-Panda |
Quozl: Lesson learnt :-) |
| 01:01 |
|
yashagrawal3 has quit IRC |
| 01:01 |
walterbender |
If the patch works, then the toolkit is working and we can (1) start porting activities and (2) port sugar |
| 01:02 |
Pro-Panda |
The only thing that _hopefully_ will remain is to remake the make files. |
| 01:04 |
Quozl |
I've nothing further to add. |
| 01:05 |
Pro-Panda |
I also wanted to discuss my timeline and planning for GSoC. Can we move ? |
| 01:05 |
walterbender |
me neither |
| 01:05 |
|
well... |
| 01:05 |
|
re evaluations, we can make a plan re activities and have some tangible metrics that way |
| 01:06 |
|
but the bottom line is the interaction with the community |
| 01:06 |
Pro-Panda |
walterbender: Sure. Also, I was planning to increase the time I plan to give on porting Sugar, by a week |
| 01:07 |
walterbender |
OK |
| 01:08 |
Pro-Panda |
I have nothing further to add for today... |
| 01:08 |
walterbender |
OK |
| 01:08 |
|
we are off to a good start... |
| 01:08 |
|
let us know if the patch works |
| 01:09 |
Pro-Panda |
walterbender: Sure, also, "sugar3.graphics.popwindow" isn't used in any of the activities, so their porting can be continued without the patch |
| 01:10 |
|
Should we end the meeting ? |
| 01:10 |
Quozl |
Pro-Panda: i'll write my comments on the issue. |
| 01:11 |
Pro-Panda |
Quozl: sure, I'll go through them |
| 01:13 |
|
Should we end the meeting ? |
| 01:14 |
walterbender |
yes |
