RE: Reminder: Zikula sprint with Simon in #fedora-mktg in ~6.75 hours
by Simon Birtwistle 31 Jan '10

31 Jan '10

Sincere apologies to everyone, but I've had some severe transport issues and can't get home tonight. While I could join IRC on my mobile I don't think I'd be much help. Instead, I'll sign in tomorrow evening at the same time - I hope that those who were planning to join me can make that time. If not, I should be available at the weekend as well. Once again, I am really sorry for the no-show and added late notice....

Getting help from the zikula community: ask the forums
by Mel Chua 27 Jan '10

27 Jan '10

If you're working on zikula/Insight and blocking on something that needs zikula-fu to move forward, Ryan Rix has had success asking questions on the forums (see http://community.zikula.org/index.php?module=Forum&func=viewtopic&topic=575…) This list is where we're working on getting zikula up in Fedora: http://community.zikula.org appears to be where the zikula folks work on helping other people with their zikula instances. (I'm sure that Simon or David or someone will correct me shortly if I'm wrong. ;) Good stuff to know. --Mel

RE: FI Update
by Simon Birtwistle 26 Jan '10

26 Jan '10

We've switched from using the old-style news module to using pagemaster which is missing the sample data added earlier in the design phase. More sample data needs to be added into the "NewsNew" publication type in pagemaster, then any necessary design work should be copied from the news templates into the publication templates (this was started at FUDCon. Once we have the expertise from doing that we can work on the Fedora Weekly news templates, which are a slightly harder proposition. This is because we have to group individual articles together on the summary page, and whenever the date changes we'll need to output some HTML (for example a line break) to separate the various FWN issues. This is hard to explain typing an email on my phone, so I'll go through it on Wednesday night as far as I can.

Zikula sprint with Simon: 21:30 UTC on Wednesday 1/27
by Mel Chua 26 Jan '10

26 Jan '10

Simon (itbegins) will be joining 21:30 UTC on Wednesday night for zikula/Insight sprintin', so start lining up the questions. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_Insight#Sprint_agenda It's mostly a stub right now, but the idea is to continue collecting all our blockers/questions in one place (this list - I consider my job between now and Wednesday to sync the past ~2 weeks of this mailing list to that wiki page) so that on Wednesday we have a solid prioritized list of blockers to push through. --Mel

FI Update
by Simon Birtwistle 26 Jan '10

26 Jan '10

Mel asked me to send an update on what I've achieved tonight (it isn't much, so please do read on!) * I helped mmcgrath fix an issue with the CSS on the staging server * I fixed the "missing argument [tid]" error on the homepage * I started looking at the editing issue for news articles, but didn't find a simple solution * I agreed with Mel to be online at 21:30 Wednesday evening to assist anyone working on Fedora insight that has Zikula-related questions. Next update Wednesday!

FI update: Websites team now stepping up to fix theme package
by Mel Chua 25 Jan '10

25 Jan '10

Stopped by the Websites meeting today to get some help on the theme package, which is blocking us from going to staging. And Websites stepped up wonderfully. Hiemanshu Sharma (hiemanshu) is leading the charge; Craig Thomas (giarc) has offered help on tickets #87 and #88, and Carl Walker (nullsys) and Sijis Aviles (sijis) will be joining as soon as they get clear of their other Websites Team projects at the start of next week. Thanks, everyone! (Also, it turns out that Hiemanshu knows how to fix the weird overlapping text bug I sent a screenshot for last time; it's a <div> thing that's not actually so bad.) People who want to help with the CSS/js/theme-packaging side of things are the only ones who are likely to find these interesting, but the notes and log are at http://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-websites/2010-01-22/fedora-websites…. How's progress on the short URLs schema (https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_set_up_a_Zikula_sandbox#Short_URLs_Sy… --Mel

Zikula sandboxin' to-do list [was: Re: Meeting minutes 2010-01-19]

Continue what Max started last night, which is: 0. Get access to the sysadmin-test FAS group if you don't already have it (you'll need it to work on this) 1. Take the current sandbox instance on pt1, http://publictest1.fedoraproject.org/zikula/index.php, ssh into pt1, and.... 2. Work through https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_set_up_a_Zikula_sandbox, starting with step 5, editing the instructions as needed along the way, and noting any bugs/glitches/questions found. See https://fedoraproject.org/w/index.php?title=How_to_set_up_a_Zikula_sandbox&… for what Max did. 3. Holler to list when you stop, with where you ended so the next person can take it up from there. > Is the page at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Zikula still correct? It is likely not entirely up-to-date. [[Zikula]] and [[Fedora Insight]] could both likely use refreshing, but we don't have a specific list of things that need to be refreshed right now, so if you're working through this and find something that needs (or could potentially need) updating, holler, and eventually the momentum from the individual patches will snowball into somebody (probably me) doing a Giant Update of the page. > Should I be bringing this discussion to the logistics@ list? Just did. :) --Mel

Stuck: Zikula/FI [tid] bug, infrastructure ticket #1874
by Mel Chua 25 Jan '10

25 Jan '10

Hiemanshu and I can't figure this one out, and thought we'd ask the metabrain. https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-infrastructure/ticket/1874 It's the extremely obvious "Fedora Insight Error: Missing argument [tid]" bug that's displayed in Giant Red Letters on the front of http://publictest6.fedoraproject.org/zikula/. Aside from "it probably has something to do with templates," we're pretty much in "hunt blindly! search results did not return useful answers!" mode right now. We could also use some help figuring out how to ask these questions upstream (because more questions like this may come up on short notice in the next 2 weeks) - the zikula IRC channel (#zikula on irc.oftc.net) seems to be pretty quiet and relatively empty, but we can try the forums next; that seems to be the place where zikula support happens - Ryan just volunteered to ping the forums (thanks, Ryan!) so we'll see what happens. --Mel

Zikula ready for staging? [was: Re: QA in for 208]

I believe we may actually be good to go to staging - everything's packaged. Some CSS bugs remain, but they can be fixed en route. I'm checking out the sandbox instructions tomorrow and setting up a sandbox from scratch to see if that is actually the case, but if it is... I'm hitting up #fedora-admin and the Infrastructure ticket queue, because we've been waiting to go to staging for a long time now. --Mel

FI content workflow
by Mel Chua 08 Jan '10

08 Jan '10

I tried drafting out an ascii version of the workflow I saw being tossed around at FUDCon - thoughts? Is this accurate? Workable? It's pretty simple. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_Insight#Content_workflow (I'm not sure if I'm using the word "workflow" in the same way that FWN uses it - if there's another word I should use instead, or some way this diagram ought to be revised, please ping - or edit the wiki version. ;) --Mel

These were from the FUDCon hackfest, photos thanks to Diana Martin. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Zikula_hackfest#Whiteboards The one I'm looking at right now is https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/File:Zikula-whiteboard-fudcon-toronto-02.png, which has Max's notes on content. --Mel
