11:27 mrpeters anyone else hit upon this when upgrading 2.5.3 > 2.6.0?
11:28 mrpeters http://pastie.org/9261348
11:29 mrpeters it appears i don't have an "evergreen.located_uris" schema
11:30 mrpeters err, table
11:31 mrpeters yikes, looks like thats from 2.1>2.2
11:31 dbwells That error isn't a missing table, but a missing function.
11:32 mrpeters yeah, i see that now
11:32 mrpeters but, i do have it
11:32 mrpeters http://pastie.org/9261361
11:34 dbwells Not sure, maybe a search_path issue?
11:36 remingtron is it a problem of nonmatching function params?
11:36 remingtron looking for: located_uris(bigint, integer, integer)
11:36 remingtron but you have: (id bigint, name text, label_sortkey text, rank integer)
11:36 dbwells no, that's what it returns
11:36 remingtron ah, right
11:38 dbwells ~search_path
11:38 pinesol_green When restoring a database, make sure to reset the search_path accordingly with something like: alter database unpredicable_haxxors_go_away set search_path = 'evergreen, public, pg_catalog';
11:39 Dyrcona Search path don't work during a restore because of the way schemas are used.
11:39 Dyrcona After a restore, if you remember to rest it, yeah.
11:39 Dyrcona s/rest/reset/
11:40 dbwells Yeah, I think that's what the tip is trying to say.
11:40 dbwells Should probably say "After restoring..."
11:40 dbwells @blame csharp
11:40 pinesol_green dbwells: csharp is why we can never have nice things!
11:41 dbwells :)
11:42 dbwells If I were smart enough to fix it, I would.
11:42 bshum ~no search_path is After restoring a database, make sure to reset the search_path accordingly with something like: alter database unpredicable_haxxors_go_away set search_path = 'evergreen, public, pg_catalog';
11:42 pinesol_green I'll remember that bshum
11:42 bshum ~search_path
11:42 pinesol_green search_path is After restoring a database, make sure to reset the search_path accordingly with something like: alter database unpredicable_haxxors_go_away set search_path = 'evergreen, public, pg_catalog';
11:43 bshum Hmm
11:43 bshum Not quite what I was aiming for
11:43 dbwells bshum: can anyone do the ~no command?  I think you want <reply> before "After"
11:43 bshum dbwells: Yeah that's what I was just reading up
11:44 bshum The ~no is a prefix to replace the contents of a given note
11:44 bshum You just need to be registered with the bot and marked as an editor of the encyclopedia plugin
11:44 bshum ~no search_path is <reply> After restoring a database, make sure to reset the search_path accordingly with something like: alter database unpredicable_haxxors_go_away set search_path = 'evergreen, public, pg_catalog';

11:44 dbwells bshum++ thanks
11:49 mrpeters evergreen=# alter database evergreen set search_path = 'evergreen, public, pg_catalog';
11:49 mrpeters NOTICE:  schema "evergreen, public, pg_catalog" does not exist
11:49 mrpeters .
11:50 mrpeters is that the right syntax for multiple schemas?
11:51 mrpeters ALTER DATABASE evergreen SET search_path TO evergreen, public, pg_catalog;
11:52 mrpeters if you want to fix pinesol :)
11:54 mrpeters ew - ERROR:  cannot ALTER TABLE "record_entry" because it has pending trigger events -- that should be fun
11:55 mrpeters easy in a test db, maybe more tricky in production
12:02 kmlussier joined #evergreen
12:25 bshum mrpeters: = worked fine for me the other day, over TO
12:25 bshum Maybe it's a version thing.
12:26 bshum Or how the command was issued
12:26 mrpeters maybe
12:27 Dyrcona mrpeters: try it at night when no one should be cataloging.
12:27 mrpeters Dyrcona: its a test db
12:28 Dyrcona Ah. i saw production above.
12:28 mrpeters what do i need to do to clean up?
12:28 mrpeters i have no pending at.events
12:28 bshum That's not what it's sayinig
12:28 Dyrcona It's not at events. It's a database trigger on biblio.record_entry.
12:28 bshum It's saying that record_entry has triggers it's waiting to run
12:28 mrpeters 2014-06-05 11:55:29 EDT ERROR:  cannot ALTER TABLE "record_entry" because it has pending trigger events
12:29 dconnor joined #evergreen
12:29 mrpeters ah, my mind just quickly went at action triggers
12:29 bshum What's the command it's attempting to run?  Perhaps there's an ALTER in the script following some other command to make changes to the table data.
12:29 mrpeters 2014-06-05 11:55:29 EDT ERROR:  cannot ALTER TABLE "record_entry" because it has pending trigger events
12:29 mrpeters 2014-06-05 11:55:29 EDT STATEMENT:  ALTER TABLE authority.record_entry ENABLE TRIGGER a_marcxml_is_well_formed;
12:29 kbutler joined #evergreen
12:30 bshum (that sort of thing can happen depending on how the script is structured)
12:48 kmlussier gmcharlt: I noticed when you removed open-ils.ingest references from http://wiki.evergreen-ils.org/doku.php?id=scra​tchpad:random_magic_spells#how_to_include_a_sp​ecific_marc_field_with_a_specific_search_class, you also removed the non-reingest method of populating metabib_keyword_field_entry based on a newly-created index.
12:49 * gmcharlt looks
12:49 kmlussier Is that because we shouldn't be using that method to populate the index?
12:50 Dyrcona mrpeters: Just rearrange the upgrade script so that any updates on biblio.record_entry happen in a different transaction from the alter table steps.
12:53 dbwells mrpeters: I think your particular problem is fixed in the repo and is part of the 2.6.1 release.  Since that release has been in preview mode for a week now, I am adding it to the main downloads page now.
12:54 gmcharlt kmlussier: it's not horrid to do it that way, but it's less correct (e.g., if the index class happens to be set up as combined)
12:55 kmlussier gmcharlt: OK, that's good to know. I always knew it was less correct, but it tended to serve our purposes well. :)
12:58 dbwells downloads page has been updated for newest releases
12:59 bshum dbwells++
13:02 mrpeters dbwells++
13:02 mrpeters so, there is a 2.5.3 > 2.6.0 that is updated in the 2.6.1 release, or a 2.5.3 > 2.6.1 upgrade script?
13:02 bshum Oh right... replying to that thread.
13:02 * bshum goes and digs up his drafts
13:03 mrpeters thanks for uploading the release, we've been waiting for it to build the debs for 2.6.1 ;)
13:03 pinesol_green [evergreen|Bill Erickson] LP#1326806 Minor repairs to EDI admin documentation - <http://git.evergreen-ils.org/?p=​Evergreen.git;a=commit;h=66836d6>
13:03 hbrennan joined #evergreen
13:07 mrpeters confirmed fixed
13:07 mrpeters dbwells++
13:08 dbwells mrpeters: thanks for the feedback
13:08 mrpeters safe to skip the 2.5 reingest of bibs, since it happens again in 2.6?
13:11 dbwells I would think so, but that's untested.
13:16 berick bshum++ # edi docs merge
13:16 bshum berick++ # made good sense to me when I read the diff :)

14:00 remingtron did yboston find someone to lead the DIG meeting today? supposed to start at 2pm I think.
14:00 kmlussier Mixing metarecord holds with part holds - is that even in the realm of possibility for future development?
14:01 kmlussier Oops! I forgot about the meeting. I'll save my question for later. :)
14:01 kmlussier How many people are here for the meeting?
14:03 remingtron hm, not seeing many regulars on the logged in list
14:03 kmlussier If it's just the two of us, I think it would be a good idea to reschedule. If there are more, I can start up meetbot.
14:04 remingtron alright, let's give it a few minutes and see if anyone else comes.
14:04 kbutler I wasn't sure if it was going to be at 2 or 3, based on what yboston said on the list.
14:08 remingtron ah, just saw his email
14:08 remingtron kmlussier: are you free at 3pm today?
14:09 kmlussier Ah, I see. He left it somewhat ambiguous.
14:09 kmlussier I'm around until 4 p.m., so either time works for me.
14:09 remingtron I can meet at 3pm, so let's all check in with yboston then, and if we need to reschedule for a different day, then we can.
14:10 remingtron kbutler: does that work for you too?
14:13 kbutler yep, that works fine for me.
14:15 remingtron great, see you folks at 3pm
14:15 kmlussier Since we're delaying the meeting, I'll re-ask my question. Mixing metarecord holds with part holds - is that even in the realm of possibility for future development? Or am I just talking crazy talk?
14:15 bshum kmlussier: Crazy talk, obviously.
14:16 kmlussier bshum: I knew what your answer would be! :D
14:16 * bshum is kidding, of course.  Though now he's ready to go hang himself.
14:16 bshum How would part holds be connected with metarecords?  Like just putting all parts of different metarecords together in some picker?
14:17 bshum Or something more complex?
14:17 bshum Like, all parts named the same thing get meta-part'd together?
14:17 bshum (sounds complicated when I write that)
14:18 kmlussier I honestly don't know. I guess to provide some way, for example, to allow patrons to place a hold on either the DVD or BluRay format of Breaking Bad, Season 4 Disc 1?
14:18 Dyrcona Yeah, parts are like the antithesis of metarecords.
14:18 Dyrcona Metarecord: I don't care which one I get.
14:18 bshum kmlussier: But what if the DVD and Blu-ray disc 1's don't have the same episodes on them?
14:18 Dyrcona Part: I want that specific one, right there, yes, part 1, not part 2.
14:18 kmlussier Or even just the DVD, since there are distinct records for widescreen and letterbox. Maybe the user doesn't care.
14:19 yboston joined #evergreen
14:19 kmlussier With metarecord, you don't care what format you get. But you might care what part you get.
14:19 kmlussier Or you don't care what edition (widescreen/letter box) you get.
14:19 jeff solution: don't break up multi-disc sets. ;-)
14:19 kmlussier Yeah, yeah.
14:19 bshum jeff++ # logic?  WHAT?!
14:19 * Dyrcona ignores jeff and his /solution/.
14:20 kmlussier I'm actually one of the few patrons who prefers to get DVD's one disc at a time.
14:20 kmlussier We don't have enough time to watch DVD's during the course of a week.
14:20 jcamins kmlussier: you get DVDs for a week?
14:20 Dyrcona But, if I don't care if I get the audio book, the large print, the library binding, or the DVD of the movie that has only the title in common with the book? How do part come into it at all?
14:20 kmlussier jcamins: From my library? Yup! Why? How long do you get yours?
14:20 jeff yeah. we have some TV series that are 4 day circ and a long hold queue. depending on when it comes in, you're not going to be able to watch it all.
14:21 mmorgan Dyrcona: The audiobook is in 2 parts ...
14:21 jcamins kmlussier: two days.
14:21 kmlussier jcamins: Yikes! I would never watch anything.
14:21 bshum Dyrcona: Well, chances are good that the books will not map to metarecord with the videos.  Different authors, so different bib fingerprints.
14:21 jcamins ^^ why I don't use the library for A/V.
14:21 bshum So it's really only the video stuff that might end up on the same metarecord
14:21 bshum I would think
14:22 hbrennan Our DVDs check out for a week as well. We have patrons who live 30 miles away, and some across a bay with only boat access. Gotta have time to watch shows.
14:22 kmlussier bshum: I think you're right. I often see DVD's separated from other formats when I group formats and editions.
14:22 bshum Or at least, that's been my experiences so far.
14:22 Dyrcona But parts are broken and so, apparently, are metarecords, so the question is nonsensical.
14:23 kmlussier Parts aren't broken. They just need a little love.
14:23 bshum a "little" love?
14:23 * kmlussier won't speak to metarecord holds because she hasn't used them enough yet.
14:24 Dyrcona Good luck using them without an Internal Server Error.
14:24 bshum kmlussier: Yeah I think it's cause the lead author on videos ends up being an actor or director.
14:24 dluch joined #evergreen
14:24 bshum So the fingerprint ends up not matching up with the book versions
14:24 kmlussier bshum: I gathered as much. And it didn't really bother me much because the movie isn't really a direct equivalent of the book or audiobook.
14:25 * bshum may never turn on metarecord holds now.
14:25 Dyrcona World War Z: Enjoy the movie that has everything you loved about the title of the book!
14:25 bshum To avoid the parts + metarecord weirdness that will result
14:26 kmlussier From what I understand, if you try to place a metarecord hold on a title that only contains parts, you'll get a message saying there are no copies that an fill the hold.
14:26 kmlussier s/an/can
14:27 yboston My apologies for those that showed up for the DIG meeting today, I was delayed at a presentation
14:28 kmlussier yboston: We decided to regroup again at 3. Does that work for you?
14:29 yboston absolutely
14:35 mllewellyn joined #evergreen
14:38 jeff hrm. I wonder why my logging isn't... logging.
14:40 bshum Opinions:  "Patron: password from phone #" setting currently applies the phone number's last four digits as the password every time you update the patron's day_phone.
14:40 bshum But the description from the setting is that it applies when registering the patron (i.e. new registrations only?)
14:41 bshum For sites that may be using PIN only, should we add another library setting to continue locking in password set whenever phone is updated?
14:41 bshum And then leave the default behavior for the current setting to only apply phone to password during new patron registration only?
14:42 geoffsams joined #evergreen
14:43 hbrennan I would much prefer only using phone as password during registration
14:43 hbrennan I think patrons would too
14:43 * kmlussier agrees with hbrennan.
14:43 bshum yeah that's what I was thinking, but I just wanted to get some more opinions
14:43 kmlussier Since users can change their passwords after it is set, it seems like it would be frustrating if the system automatically changed it for them at a later date.
14:43 kbutler +1 to only using phone during the initial registration.
14:44 hbrennan Yes, I didn't know it did that
14:44 kmlussier bshum: Has it always done that?
14:44 jeff i can see a number of use cases here. some libraries want the patron password to always be four digits matching the last four of the patron phone number. some want to use that as the initial password. others may want to also use it as the value that is assigned when the password is "reset", rather than four random digits.
14:44 hbrennan Probably the reason why many patrons don't understand when their PIN stops working
14:44 kbutler we've had problems with it being unintentionally changed.
14:44 bshum kmlussier: Yeah, it's been one of the reasons I've been hammering back to staff here that changing/updating the phone will also replace the password.
14:44 bshum kmlussier: I think it's done that since 2.0
14:44 bshum Just haven't gotten around to dealing with it before now
14:45 jeff that behavior outside of an explicit step to enable it is a violation of least surprise, at least to me. :-)
14:45 hbrennan But the patron should be incontrol of their password, correct? The only reason I see a library wanting it to always match phone is that the library is using patron's passwords
14:46 kbutler we even have issues with it sometimes during reg, due to the order of the boxes on the registration screen. But that's another issue entirely.
14:46 hbrennan kbutler: I understand that as well. Staff took a while to learn that they shouldn't write down the initial password given, because it changes after the phone is entered
14:46 bshum Or maybe I'm lying, because I see the patron.isnew() in the widget code in the register.js...?
14:46 hbrennan kbutler: It's like bait
14:47 * bshum is confused now
14:47 kmlussier bshum: Join the club!
14:47 kbutler hbrennan: exactly. Even I forget, and then I see it change.

14:48 bshum Oh boy.
14:48 hbrennan Yikes
14:48 kmlussier OK, that seems a little random.
14:48 dbwells sorry :)
14:49 dbwells I was attempting a private conversation with pinesol_green, but it never learned any manners.
14:49 jeff that plugin isn't very supybot-like
14:49 bshum kbutler: Yeah, the order of input always irks me (and our libraries) a bit.
14:49 bshum @blame Ubuntu
14:49 pinesol_green bshum: Ubuntu 's bugfix broke bshum's feature!
14:49 kmlussier pinesol_green: Learn some manners!
14:49 pinesol_green kmlussier: Have you tried turning it off and back on again?
14:49 pinesol_green kmlussier: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :)
14:50 hbrennan haha
14:50 jeff $logger->info('some text') isn't logging where i would expect. that's unusual.
14:51 jeff test/dev system, might just be configured wrong.
14:52 dbwells bshum: P.S. if you (or someone else with editing privileges) could run that last ~no, it would fix the quote issue mrpeters pointed out earlier.  Whether we use '=' or 'TO' doesn't seem to matter, but feel free to change that as well.
14:52 bshum Oh sure.
14:53 bshum ~no search_path is <reply> After restoring a database, make sure to reset the search_path accordingly with something like: ALTER DATABASE unpredicable_haxxors_go_away SET search_path = 'evergreen, public, pg_catalog';
14:53 pinesol_green I'll remember that bshum
14:56 yboston heads up, DIG will have its (rescheduled) monthly meeting at 3 PM EST ( a few minutes from now)
14:58 bshum kmlussier: kbutler: hbrennan: Hmm, with testing, I can't seem to create the problem I thought existed with the password and phone thing.  Nevermind, guess it does work the way I thought it should...
14:58 hbrennan So it only changes during the first entering of phone?
14:59 bshum Yeah, it seems to only apply it during new registrations so far in my testing.
14:59 kbutler hmm
14:59 bshum Changing it after, and then updating the password doesn't change it
14:59 bshum At least on my test users
14:59 bshum Err, changing the phone afterwards doesn't change the password from what I changed it to....
14:59 * bshum can't explain anything today apparently
15:00 jeff ah. logging was not the issue.
15:00 hbrennan On a related note, I noticed before that the password boxes weren't talking to each other.. so it didn't matter if they matched.. has that bug been fixed?
15:00 bshum o.O
15:00 jeff hbrennan: that sounds similar to a recent bug i've seen in launchpad
15:01 kbutler bshum: I can't get it to do the password/phone thing either. Weird. I swear it was doing it before.
15:01 bshum Yeah me too...
15:01 bshum Maybe it was fixed recently
15:01 jeff bug 1068656

15:07 yboston we have not covered this in a while, should we shelve it for next week or put it in the back burner (some wiki page) in th meantime?
15:07 dbwells joined #evergreen
15:07 remingtron we had lots of participation at the April meeting right after the conference
15:07 remingtron I'm sure that's normal
15:07 yboston we can decide to revisit this issues after we finsish with 2.6?
15:07 remingtron yes, I agree
15:08 remingtron that will hopefully be our next meeting, right?
15:08 kmlussier remingtron: Yes, absolutely! :D
15:09 remingtron alright, let's push it off to next meeting
15:09 yboston I was thinking the august meeting,
15:09 yboston but the next one is fine
15:09 remingtron ah, that's probably wise
15:09 yboston quick vote on July vs August?
15:09 remingtron August
15:10 yboston August
15:10 remingtron (unless no one shows up for our July mtg)
15:10 remingtron :)
15:11 yboston the next meeting woudl fall on Thursday July 3rd, which might be bad for some
15:11 yboston we can pick a different date to meet in July
15:11 remingtron right, given American Independence Day, July 4
15:11 kbutler not July3++
15:11 bshum August seems fine to me. :)
15:11 remingtron next meet July 10?
15:12 kmlussier I won't be around July 3.
15:12 kmlussier Or the 10th.
15:12 yboston three votes for August and none for July are good enough to move on?
15:12 kmlussier +1
15:12 remingtron yes, should we decide the next meeting date now, or at end of meeting?
15:13 yboston I would rather ask on the list
15:13 remingtron sounds fine
15:13 yboston to get more peopel to particiate
15:13 yboston #action move the agenda items on increasing DIG participation and the survey to the Agust meeting
15:14 yboston #action ask on the DIG mailing list for an alternate July meeting date
15:14 yboston may I move on?
15:14 kmlussier yboston: Who is taking that last action item?
15:14 yboston #action yboston will ask on the DIG mailing list for an alternate July meeting date
15:14 yboston (thanks)
15:15 kmlussier yboston++
15:15 remingtron great
15:15 yboston #info Including technical information in end-user docs - http://markmail.org/message/twcwas7r4yuavxcq (by Kathy)
15:15 * jeff looks up
15:15 yboston I think we have a general consensus on this
15:15 kmlussier Oops, I forgot to take that item off of the agenda.
15:16 kmlussier Did you want to add the action item I suggested in the e-mail?
15:16 jeff can you summarize the general concensus or point to where it was previously summarized?
15:16 yboston of course after kmlussier takes it off the agenda, we can always revisit at a future date
15:16 jeff consensus, even.
15:16 * kmlussier looks.
15:17 kmlussier http://georgialibraries.markma​il.org/thread/7vkqwo5hkqcaxg6n
15:17 yboston should we move on, or does anyone have aby comments?
15:17 kmlussier the consensus  from that discussion was that people preferred to gather all of the  information about a particular feature (technical, administrative, end  user) into one place.
15:17 jeff kmlussier++ thanks
15:17 yboston #link http://georgialibraries.markma​il.org/thread/7vkqwo5hkqcaxg6n
15:18 yboston #action kmlussier will remove the agenda item for tec docs from the agenda for the next meeting
15:18 yboston *tech
15:19 yboston may I move on? (sorry, want to blow through old stuff, feel free to tell me to slow down)
15:19 kmlussier #action kmlussier will add to the DIG style guide info on gathering technical and end user info in one place.
15:19 remingtron yboston: go right ahead
15:19 kmlussier +1 to moving on.
15:19 yboston #info Post conference DIG hackfest discussion
15:19 yboston # 1) remaining work to be finished
15:19 yboston #info ideas for next year's conference
15:20 remingtron I believe the main focus was on bringing old missing docs into current docs, which has been postponed until we get 2.6 finished, right?
15:20 remingtron (the focus of the hackfest, that is)
15:20 yboston yes, I was about to say this is another good thing to postpone until August
15:20 remingtron yes, I agree
15:20 kbutler I agree re: postponing
15:21 kmlussier +1
15:22 yboston #action yboston will move action item about finishing DIG 2013 hackfest work to August meeting agenda
15:22 yboston #action yboston will move action item about finishing DIG 2014 hackfest work to August meeting agenda
15:22 yboston I think we can ignore the brainstorming for now
15:23 yboston will move on (?)
15:23 remingtron go ahead
15:23 yboston #info Reminder to use (and keep improving) the DIG AsciiDoc Style Guide
15:24 remingtron just wanted to remind people that it exists
15:24 remingtron feel free to edit, improve, etc.
15:24 yboston we could move this to that page about our general todos?
15:24 remingtron yes, great idea
15:24 remingtron I'll do that
15:25 yboston should I create the action item for you or do you want to do it?
15:25 remingtron #action remingtron will move style guide reminder to DIG ToDo page
15:25 yboston nice
15:25 remingtron thanks
15:25 yboston moving on
15:25 yboston #info Discuss if we should pick a new monthly day and time for DIG to meet (Yamil)
15:26 yboston we have had OK attendace so far since after the conference. I think the IRC practice helped a bit
15:26 yboston we can postpone this for a while, maybe part of the outreach to the general comunity
15:26 remingtron summer is tricky, what if we try using Doodle to schedule the next meeting or two?
15:26 yboston *community
15:26 yboston we can try with the July meeting
15:27 kmlussier +1
15:27 yboston I can set up the doodle
15:27 yboston I will pick 2 or 3 PM for several days in the first two weeks of July (?)
15:28 kbutler +1
15:28 remingtron maybe just pick one week
15:28 yboston BTW, I am picking afternoons to help make it easy on West coast folks.
15:28 yboston yes, I can start with one week only for now
15:29 yboston will pick the second week of july
15:29 remingtron sounds good
15:29 kmlussier The week of July 7?
15:29 kmlussier I'll be out that week, but I can always miss a meeting. :)
15:29 yboston yes, July 7th, unless that is bad for you
15:29 remingtron if it's bad for others, we can always change weeks
15:30 yboston Is the first week any worse?
15:30 remingtron I think so, because of 4th of July
15:30 yboston I will do the first two weeks (a few days in both)
15:30 remingtron sounds fine
15:31 yboston @action yboston will set up a doodle poll for scheduling the July DIG meeting
15:31 * pinesol_green yboston will set up a doodle poll for scheduling the July DIG meeting
15:31 yboston #action yboston will set up a doodle poll for scheduling the July DIG meeting
15:31 yboston #New DIG Workflow: Document all new 2.6 features by July 1, and all new future version features by the time the version is released.
15:31 yboston #info New DIG Workflow: Document all new 2.6 features by July 1, and all new future version features by the time the version is released.
15:32 yboston #info 1. To review: All members choose 1-3 new features to document each month, emailing the list with questions and calls for help.
15:32 yboston #info 2. Assignments: Everyone choose another 1-3 remaining new features for the next month
15:32 yboston #info 3. Progress Reports: How did this month go? Suggestions for improving the workflow? Tough features that need special attention?
15:33 remingtron #link http://evergreen-ils.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?​id=evergreen-docs:2.6_needs&amp;#cataloging
15:34 remingtron oops, ignore the "cataloging" part
15:34 yboston kbutler was working on something, and I am sorry I did not have an abswer for your question
15:34 remingtron #link: evergreen-ils.org/dokuwiki/doku.​php?id=evergreen-docs:2.6_needs
15:34 kmlussier I expect to have mine complete by July 1.
15:34 kbutler I took the silence as an 'nope, this isn't documented yet' response.
15:34 remingtron kbutler: you were correct!
15:35 kbutler Adding that in means I'm not done yet but I should be done by the deadline. :)
15:35 kmlussier kbutler: I find that often happens when I'm documenting something that seems to be a small task.
15:35 yboston kbutler: I started doing a low level text search of the raw docs, but I did not get far enough to get you an answer
15:35 yboston (I checked out the repo and just used "grep -i standing")
15:36 yboston I think there is one or two things that are new in 2.6 that are not in my list, but I need to verify and list them on this list. I think they might be simple enough that I can maybe docuemnt them myself by th edeadline
15:37 yboston (I looked at it a month ago and don't remmeber what I saw)
15:37 kbutler thanks to everyone who looked.
15:37 remingtron kbutler: do you want any help, or want to handle it yourself?
15:38 kbutler I think I'm ok, but if anyone has thoughts on where it should go within the documentation I would be happy to hear them.
15:38 kbutler But I will send that to the list.
15:39 remingtron my only suggestion is to do a quick Google search, which will hopefully turn up wiki pages, email conversation, Evergreen blogs, etc. which might help
15:39 kbutler good idea
15:40 remingtron I grabbed another todo item today, should be done soon.
15:40 yboston There are also docs by the BC and Indianapolis libraries that might cover it, for example
15:41 yboston BTW, another side project for us is to move that content to the main docs
15:41 kmlussier All of it? Or just the parts that aren't already covered by the docs?
15:41 yboston I meant the parts that we are missing
15:41 remingtron yboston: we should add an action of "prioritize missing or external docs to add in"
15:42 yboston for example, in the general to dos page?
15:42 remingtron sure!
15:43 yboston can you take care of that one?
15:43 yboston or somebody else?
15:43 remingtron I'll do it
15:43 remingtron #action remingtron will start a prioritized list of missing or external docs to bring in
15:44 yboston BC libraries mentioned they want to help with integrating their content with us
15:44 remingtron great!
15:44 yboston btw, we are at the 45 minute mark, we are doing well
15:45 kbutler integrated content++
15:45 yboston do we want to stay on this topic a little longer or move on?
15:45 remingtron haven't heard much progress from Jennifer or Elliot
15:46 yboston Do we have any ESI folks that could comment on their 2.6 doc progress?
15:47 kmlussier yboston: They usually introduce themselves at the beginning when they're here.
15:47 yboston I know, but I was wondering if they showed up on the later side :)
15:48 yboston BTW, at this point we only have to "new" agenda issues to discuss. SHould I move on, with the assumption that we can keep talking about 2.6 on the list?
15:49 remingtron sure, I'll send another progress requst to the list
15:49 remingtron #action remingtron will email the DIG list for a progress report
15:49 yboston thanks
15:50 yboston #topic Early plans for updating documentation for new web-client (Yamil)
15:50 yboston this has been discussed a bit on the list so far
15:50 yboston on one hand we can do too much at this time while the client is so rapidly evolvimg
15:51 yboston (can't do)
15:51 kmlussier I think we should take the approach remingtron recommended for new features. If a piece of the web client is ready at release time, then it should be included as new features to document by the general release deadline.
15:51 yboston I suspect a version of the browser client could appear in 2.7 with very limted functional
15:52 remingtron kmlussier++
15:52 kbutler kmlussier++
15:52 yboston remingtron++ kmlussier++\
15:53 yboston I think that for now that is enough to cover ont his topic, but I am open to talking more about it now too
15:53 remingtron sounds fine for now
15:54 kbutler not much can be done until there are firmer plans for a release date
15:54 yboston moving on
15:54 yboston #info Do we need to plan a DIG hack-a-way for before Evergreen 2.7 is released?
15:55 yboston for the record, DIG hack-a-way have been held around October/November, but we do not need to stick to that
15:55 yboston we can also postpone this dicsussion until a future meeting
15:55 remingtron can we get a quick vote of interest?
15:55 yboston perhpas, depending on how well we do with 2.6
15:56 yboston first can we determine a rough date for when 2.7 might come out?
15:56 * kmlussier looks at bshum
15:56 bshum The dates are on the calendar already
15:56 bshum I plan to stick to them.
15:56 yboston I should have emphasized "might"
15:56 yboston let me look
15:57 remingtron Sept 18 for 2.7.0 Final
15:57 remingtron August 7 -- 2.7 beta
15:57 kmlussier So August 7 is when we know what we need to document.
15:57 remingtron DIG can do most of our work once beta is out
15:57 remingtron yup
15:58 yboston I am up for a DIG hack-a-way before Sept 18 for 2.7.0 Final
15:58 remingtron me too
15:59 kbutler me too
15:59 yboston do we want/can we start working on it before the beta?
16:00 remingtron sure, we can document features as they get committed
16:00 kmlussier Sounds like a good idea.
16:00 remingtron starting now
16:00 yboston Also, I can host folkt at Berklee again, but we can try somewhere else too
16:00 remingtron who wants to watch the git logs and make a list for us?
16:00 * kmlussier can do that.
16:00 remingtron kmlussier++
16:00 yboston my concerd is that there is no 2.7 branch yet (or is there)
16:01 yboston I thought some things that are in master, in theory, might not make it to 2,7
16:01 * kmlussier commits to documenting any MassLNC-sponsored billing features if and when they make it in.
16:01 kmlussier yboston: No, if they are in master, they will make it to 2.7
16:01 bshum Correct.
16:01 bshum master is basically what will become 2.7 till we branch it.
16:02 yboston OK, tha tmakes sense
16:03 yboston *that
16:03 yboston so should that mean that we might not want to focus much on older missing stuff until October?
16:04 yboston or maybe just that most of us will focus on 2.6/2.7 and a few of us can focus on older/missing stuff
16:04 bshum Thing is, things will always change
16:04 yboston (BTW, we are at a little past the hour mark)
16:04 bshum But how much of it might change a lot with the web client coming up?  At the very least, screenshots.
16:04 bshum But that's like... way past 2.7 :)
16:05 remingtron I think the majority of our time should go toward new stuff, but some old priority stuff should get done too
16:05 remingtron 70-80% new features, the rest on filling in the gaps in the docs
16:06 remingtron (that's % of our time)
16:06 yboston I think as we get better at documenting, we can do both more easily
16:07 remingtron great, I think we got through everything on the agenda!
16:07 yboston so should we create an action item for adding something to the august agenda to start working on 2.7?
16:07 remingtron yes
16:08 yboston #action yboston will add an agenda item to the august meeting to have DIG start looking at 2.7 new features
16:09 yboston we are past the 1 hour mark, and we have quickly goen over all the agenda items
16:09 yboston shoudl we wrap it up for today?
16:09 kmlussier yboston++ #Making it through all the agenda items!
16:09 remingtron I think so
16:09 remingtron yboston++!
16:10 yboston thanks everyone, to be continued

16:10 remingtron bshum: thanks for being present for RM questions
16:10 kbutler yboston++
16:11 bshum remingtron: Sure, I'm writing an RM email now... because I just looked at my own timeline and forgot where all the time has gone.
16:11 bshum As an FYI, I'm going to extend the date to target new features towards 2.7 to next Thursday, June 12th (instead of today)
16:12 remingtron bshum++
16:12 bshum If anyone out there knows of new stuff that'll be actively developed / planning to develop something, this is the time to start telling the world about it.
16:13 yboston remingtron: I wanted to share with you that in the past few weeks I have been trying to parse the full documentation on my Mac. So far I can build the epub version without errors
16:13 kmlussier left #evergreen
16:13 ericar joined #evergreen
16:13 yboston remingtron: I get errors when building the the HTML version through asciidoc, turns out Robert first exports to DocBook, then creates the HTML. I need to try that locally
16:14 yboston remingtron: I also figured out how to solve the "source-highlighting" error I was getting way back at the DIG hack-a-way. Just had to isntall the library on my MAc
16:15 yboston remingtron: BTW, the error with Asciidoc to HTML is that asciidoc get confused about image paths because we are using the "include:file_name.txt" directive, in terms of resloving paths
16:21 tspindler left #evergreen
16:27 remingtron yboston: glad you're making progress. Is there a particular reason you want to build it all locally?
16:29 yboston remingtron: So I can test major changes to the docs, to see if I am breaking the converson
16:29 yboston *converson
16:29 yboston remingtron: without waiting until midnight for the docs server to proces the content
16:30 yboston remingtron: also, to fostre redundancy in case the server goes down
16:38 remingtron yboston: right, nice to not have to wait until midnight to see what breaks. :)
16:38 yboston remingtron: I'll keep you posted on my progress
16:38 remingtron great, thanks

19:55 bshum gmcharlt: Just read https://bugs.launchpad.net/evergreen/+bug/1326983, sounds straightforward, but I have a question about it.  the .example file doesn't overwrite an existing file if setup on the system, right?  So we need to inform folks about the bug fix (if they don't actually read the changelogs).  Release notes aren't really done for point releases, but maybe there's some other method we can think of.

19:56 bshum Or hmm, I haven't looked lately at whether the file copies on install now.  /me checks again
19:57 gmcharlt bshum: it doesn't overwrite AFAIK
19:57 gmcharlt but then again, that puts it in the same boat as, say, opensrf.xml
