Introduction Fedocal
by Pierre-Yves Chibon
Hi all,
I quickly introduce Fedocal at the last infrastructure meeting and asked
me to present it a little bit more, also in this list.
Fedocal is a web-application aiming at providing a central place for
Fedora calendar related data.
My first thoughts while doing this was the #fedora-meeting{,-1,-2} IRC
channels, but I do think it could work as well for any other calendar
related information (releases?, infra?).
== What does it do?
* Admin can create calendar(s)
* Calendar are managed by a FAS group
* People within this FAS group can create meetings on this calendar
* While creating meeting, the creator can specify co-managers for the
meeting.
* Only the manager(s) can edit and delete meetings (and only in the
future)
* Meetings have a date, starting and stopping time and a free text field
which can contain any information (agenda, introduction...).
* Meetings can be recursive until the end of time == 2121-12-31*, or
until a specified time and their frequency can be every 7 or 14 days.
* Meetings can have a reminder.
* Reminder are sent 12h, 24h, 48h or 168h (7days) before the meetings[2]
* Reminders can be sent to several email address (comma separated)[2]
* Meetings can be deleted/edited either a single meeting, or all the
future meetings of a recursive meeting.
* The calendars have a weekly view which can be browsed
* The calendars can also be pointed to a single date, it will then
return the view of the week
ie: /#fedora-meeting2/2012/9/25 will return the week view of the 25h of
September, same for /#fedora-meeting2/2012/9/28
== Future plans?
* The first is for sure, see if this application can be useful
* Finish up what needs to be
* Take into account the timezone returned by the FAS for the user to
display the calendar. Maybe having two columns one with UTC one with the
local time.
* Provide a iCal/Caldav output so that we can couple it to a calendar
client [3]
* See with Mizmo to give Fedocal a nicer look :)
* Testing!
Fedocal is still work in progress but there is already some things
nicely working. It will requires some more work but I think it is duable
to have something basic quikly there.
The big question is then: do we consider this useful or should we try to
move to a real calendar solution with the reminder function added ?
Best regards,
Pierre
[1] Why 2121-12-31? Because 21+21=42
[2] This work is still to be done (probably a script to run via a
cronjob at first)
[3] This will require quite some work and probably more than I can put
in during my free time
PS: I am opening now the discussion but I'll be away for 10 days
starting on Wednesday (morning, US time)

Status of the insight.fedoraproject.org site
by Stephen John Smoogen
Hi we were wondering who was responsible for the
insight.fedoraproject.org website as it seems to have fallen out of
use after June of 2011 (or at least that is the last update on its
page as of today). Are there plans of updating it soon or should we
look at sunsetting the service and turning off the servers?
Thanks

* No remaining blocker bugs ;-) (jreznik, 19:07:43)

(jreznik, 19:08:26)
* agenda (jreznik, 19:09:05)
* 3 Proposed Blockers (tflink, 19:12:34)
* 3 non-VERIFIED Accepted Blockers (tflink, 19:12:56)
* (855849) could not UEFI boot F18 Alpha (TC6 through RC3) DVD or
netinst written to optical disc or dd'ed to USB: /dev/root does not
exist (tflink, 19:13:49)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=855849 (tflink,
19:13:52)
* Proposed Blockers, NEW (tflink, 19:13:54)
* AGREED: it is agreed in principle that the relevant release
criterion should be weakened so it only requires any one of the
'normal' UEFI boot paths to work, not several (adamw, 19:36:07)
* AGREED: 855849 - RejectedBlocker - With the above modification to
the F18 alpha release requirements, this bug is not considered a
blocker as USB media created with livecd-iso-to-disk is still able
to boot on (u)EFI machines (tflink, 19:38:14)
* (848305) When kernel modsetting is enabled, laptop screen remians off
until Xorg starts (ironlake) (tflink, 19:38:46)
* ACTION: adamw to propose criterion modification on test list
(adamw, 19:38:47)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=848305 (tflink,
19:38:49)
* Proposed Blockers, ASSIGNED (tflink, 19:38:52)
* AGREED: 848305 is rejected as a blocker on the basis that it only
affects certain systems (so a conditional violation, so a judgment
call) and appears to have a relatively simple and documentable
workaround (adamw, 19:57:39)
* (856938) Native UEFI install from F18 Alpha RC3 DVD written to USB
with livecd-iso-to-disk fails to boot (tflink, 19:58:32)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=856938 (tflink,
19:58:35)
* Proposed Blockers, NEW (tflink, 19:58:38)
* AGREED: 856938 - RejectedBlocker - While this is a conditional
violation of the F18 alpha release criteria, it was decided that the
current success rates are enough for F18 alpha (tflink, 20:11:24)
* (856399) RC2 DVD is missing grub2-efi and shim packages (tflink,
20:13:06)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=856399 (tflink,
20:13:06)
* Accepted Blockers, MODIFIED (tflink, 20:13:06)
* This has been fixed in RC3 and will be moved to VERIFIED shortly
(tflink, 20:13:46)
* (856096) repoclosure failure on 18 Alpha RC2 DVDs (mongodb) (tflink,
20:13:56)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=856096 (tflink,
20:13:56)
* Accepted Blockers, ON_QA (tflink, 20:13:56)
* this bug has been fixed, needs to be moved to VERIFIED. after enough
karma, the update will be pushed to stable and this bug will be
closed (tflink, 20:15:57)
* (856836) /etc/fstab is not written correctly after live install (F18
Alpha RC2+) (tflink, 20:16:08)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=856836 (tflink,
20:16:11)
* Accepted Blockers, ON_QA (tflink, 20:16:13)
* this is reported to be verified with RC3, move to VERIFIED once that
is confirmed in bz (tflink, 20:17:28)
* this has just been verified with RC3 -> move to VERIFIED (tflink,
20:18:35)
* the test matrices results (jreznik, 20:20:21)
* Base is 100% (adamw, 20:20:27)
* Desktop has Alpha tests covered for GNOME and KDE (release blocking
desktops). fallback isn't really considered critical since F17
(adamw, 20:20:48)
* LINK: http://tflink.fedorapeople.org/updates/f18_traceback.img
(tflink, 20:26:35)
* AGREED: the 'local disk' requirement of criterion " The installer
must be able to report failures to Bugzilla and local disk, with
appropriate information included" is waived for F18 Alpha as the
failure reporting tool does not currently have code for local disk
reporting, and we do not think an Alpha release strictly requires
this function (adamw, 20:34:32)
* missing Install tests are install_to_SCSI which has been waived for
several releases, traceback_to_disk which was waived above, and
non-EFI liveusb-creator which is OK as we only need *one* working
USB method for alpha, and we have more than one already (adamw,
20:38:09)
* per above, Install matrix is functionally complete (adamw,
20:38:21)
* go/no-go decision (jreznik, 20:38:53)
* rel-eng votes Go (dgilmore) (adamw, 20:39:37)
* devel votes Go (jlk) (adamw, 20:39:44)
* QA votes Go (tflink, viking, adam) (adamw, 20:39:52)
* infra is go (dgilmore) (jreznik, 20:40:12)
* FPL votes go (rbergeron) (adamw, 20:40:26)
* program manager votes go (jreznik) (adamw, 20:40:39)
* ACTION: jreznik to announce go/no-go result (jreznik, 20:46:55)
