10:43 Bmagic Anyone else wrestled with crontab and timezones? My action trigger cron seems to be inserting rows into ate with a runtime of 6 hours in the future. Which is exactly what time it would* be if it were UTC since our zone is -6.
10:43 Bmagic Therefore, I believe that the system time in the cron environment is UTC
10:44 berick cron should use whatever the OS uses.. 'date' will show the OS time zone
10:45 Stompro Bmagic, I haven't run into problems like that.
10:45 Bmagic yeah, that's what I thought, but that doesn't seem to be what is going on in practice. I have the OS timezone correct of course
10:47 berick Bmagic: are the dates still correct?  do they have timezone -0000 ?
10:47 Bmagic I think that the cron is respecting my midnight runtime config 00 00 * * *  but the script that runs inserts rows into the database with a run_time column of 6am, and it doesn't react to the trigger
10:47 Bmagic in the database, the timezone is -6 for the tz part of the stamp (which is correct)
10:48 berick ok, so the dates are actually wrong, not just in a different time zone
10:48 Bmagic somewhere along the line, it thinks it's 6am when it's really midnight
10:50 Bmagic postgres is configured to the correct zone, therefore when you do a query with time comparisons it's right. I think the perl script is inserting the rows specifying the run_time, and the perl script probably doesn't insert the time with the tz specified

12:25 * mmorgan was reviewing the discussion of the display of account_adjustment payments in the patron record here: http://irc.evergreen-ils.org/evergreen/2016-10-14
12:26 mmorgan I don't see a launchpad bug that addresses the display issues. Am I missing it? If not, I'll open one.
12:26 jeff i am not aware of one.
12:27 jeff there was a good bit of discussion on this and related issues at the most recent hack-a-way.
12:29 mmorgan jeff: yes, I was lurking a bit, and I know this is woven in with lp 1422379
12:29 pinesol_green Launchpad bug 1422379 in Evergreen "Move money.billing timestamps back to moment of fine" [Medium,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1422379 - Assigned to Dan Wells (dbw2)
12:30 mmorgan But I think addressing some of the display issues could go a long way toward helping staff better interpret complicated transactions.
12:30 jeff i agree.
12:31 * mmorgan will open a Launchpad bug. Maybe dbwells' branch-in-progress will find a home there :)

13:02 sandbergja Thank you everyone for coming!
13:02 sandbergja Did anybody have anything they'd like to add to the agenda?
13:03 sandbergja If not, I think we can quickly go over old business, and then get to the main portion of today's discussion.
13:04 sandbergja #topic Previous action items
13:04 sandbergja #info  jihpringle will research the state of missing RDA content
13:04 Christineb joined #evergreen
13:04 jlundgren joined #evergreen
13:04 jihpringle it's on my to do list but unfortunately never seems to make it to the top
13:05 sandbergja No worries!  Should we just defer?
13:05 jihpringle yes please
13:05 sandbergja #action jihpringle will research the state of missing RDA content
13:05 sandbergja #info  kmlussier will document the general workflow for being DIG release coordinator
13:05 kmlussier #info kmlussier has started to document the process at https://wiki.evergreen-ils.org/doku.php?​id=evergreen-docs:release_notes_process
13:06 sandbergja Awesome!  Thanks, kmlussier!
13:06 kmlussier I documented how the acknowledgements are done, but I need to add other pieces.
13:06 kmlussier In the meantime, I'm hoping to get a new volunteer to serve as release coordinator for the next release. I think I"ll have my hands full.
13:06 sandbergja I'm sure!
13:06 kmlussier I'll put out a call on the list, but if there is anyone interested, feel free to ping me.
13:07 sandbergja kmlussier: Would you like me to put any action items down for you?
13:07 kmlussier Sure, you can put me down for putting a call out on the list to find a volunteer to be DIG release coordinator.
13:08 sandbergja #action kmlussier will put a call out on the list to find a volunteer to be DIG release coordinator
13:08 sandbergja Thanks!
13:08 sandbergja #info jihpringle will email yboston or mailing list with 2.10 docs that were completed
13:09 jihpringle I thought I sent something after our upgrade in May
13:09 sandbergja jihpringle: Should I put this for next time?
13:09 sandbergja sorry, never mind!
13:10 sandbergja Let's leave this be, then!  Thanks, jihpringle!
13:10 jihpringle np
13:11 sandbergja #info  Christineb will investigate creating a Youtube playlist that incorporates SITKA videos and videos from non-SITKA sources
13:12 sandbergja Christineb: where you able to figure out more about Youtube playlists?
13:12 sandbergja ^were you able
13:13 sandbergja We can just leave that action item for now.
13:13 sandbergja #action Christineb will investigate creating a Youtube playlist that incorporates SITKA videos and videos from non-SITKA sources
13:13 sandbergja #info  sandbergja will conduct a doodle poll picking a date to work on 2.11 new features
13:13 sandbergja I did this, but then didn't publicize the date very well.
13:14 sandbergja Thanks to the few folks who did help with those docs regardless!
13:14 sandbergja Perhaps we need to schedule another one, though?  Thoughts?
13:14 dluch Another date would probably be a good idea
13:15 sandbergja Thanks, dluch!
13:15 sandbergja Would anybody be able to work on this?
13:16 jihpringle scheduling or the docs?
13:16 sandbergja scheduling and publicizing a hack-a-way for 2.11 docs
13:17 jihpringle I can run a doodle poll and then publicize it
13:17 sandbergja sorry about not being clear!  I don't want to burden anybody with doing all of the 2.11 docs!
13:17 jihpringle when do we want to hold it?
13:17 sandbergja thanks, jihpringle!
13:17 kmlussier jihpringle++
13:17 sandbergja jihpringle++
13:18 jihpringle I don't know about others, but we're pretty booked up for December and January already
13:19 dluch We are, too
13:20 sandbergja And academic and school libraries will be on break for some of that time, too. :-(
13:20 sandbergja It looks like mid-February is when we'd need to start documenting the 2.12 features
13:20 sandbergja kmlussier: correct me if I'm wrong; I am not really up on the release process
13:20 collum joined #evergreen
13:20 kmlussier Not that I want to divide our attention too much, but is there any possibility of combining 2.11 features with a web client hack day?
13:21 sandbergja That sounds reasonable to me
13:21 kmlussier sandbergja: Yes, by February 22, we should know all the features that need to be documented for 2.12
13:22 sandbergja Would it be too much of a strain to do a 2.11/web client hack day in early February, and a 2.12 hack day in late February/early March?
13:23 Christineb I missed this earlier - can we bump it to next agenda I will investigate before our next meeting - >  Christineb will investigate creating a Youtube playlist that incorporates SITKA videos and videos from non-SITKA sources
13:24 sandbergja Christineb++
13:24 sandbergja thanks; I'm excited to see what you find out
13:24 jihpringle I think if we gave everyone lots of notice doing a 2.11/web client day in early February and a 2.12 hack day in early March would work
13:24 kmlussier sandbergja: If there is a lot of advanced notice for both, I don't think it would be a strain. People can plan around dates if they know ahead of time that something is coming up.
13:25 kmlussier Aw, jihpringle beat me to it. :)
13:25 sandbergja Okay!  Let's plan on that, then. :-)
13:26 jihpringle I'll send out doodle polls for both today and ask people to people to respond by Dec 21st
13:26 sandbergja jihpringle++
13:26 sandbergja #action jihpringle will schedule and publicize a 2.11/web client hack day for early February
13:26 jihpringle then we can have the days in the calendar before the end of December
13:26 sandbergja that would be excellent
13:26 dluch jihpringle++
13:27 sandbergja #info  yboston will email Galen to give remingtron and sandbergja access to DIG test server
13:27 sandbergja This is done.
13:27 sandbergja yboston++ gmcharlt++
13:27 sandbergja Thanks for the updates, everyone!
13:27 sandbergja #topic Progress on documenting new features in Evergreen 2.11
13:27 sandbergja I think we have this pretty well sorted out, so I'll move on.
13:28 sandbergja #topic Finding a new DIG Facilitator
13:28 sandbergja Let me start out by saying :-(
13:28 sandbergja And that I miss yboston already!
13:29 sandbergja What should the process be for finding a new DIG Facilitator?
13:29 sandbergja Should we put a call out to the email lists, similar to what kmlussier is doing for the DIG release coordinator?
13:30 kmlussier In some ways, I'm inclined on holding off on my call until we have a DIG facilitator. I think it's more important that we find someone to lead the group first.
13:32 kmlussier I just looked at the e-mail list archive to see how it was handled before. It looks like Karen tapped yboston to be facilitator before she notified that she had to step down.
13:32 kmlussier No, wait, I'm wrong on that.
13:33 kmlussier He had already been filling in for her while she was out on maternity leave. I think a more formal call on the DIG list would make sense.
13:33 kmlussier Unless there is anyone here who would like to volunteer now?
13:34 kmlussier <crickets>
13:34 sandbergja It was worth a try, though!
13:34 sandbergja I would be happy to put out a call
13:35 sandbergja And I can also facilitate meetings until we have a more permanent DIG facilitator, if folks would be okay with that
13:35 kmlussier Yes, that makes sense. In the meantime, people can feel free to poke other people directly if they think they would be good for the role.
13:35 kmlussier sandbergja: No arguments from me! :)
13:37 pinesol_green [opensrf|Galen Charlton] LP#1648188: example HAProxy configuration - <http://git.evergreen-ils.org/?p​=OpenSRF.git;a=commit;h=b1d19c8>
13:37 sandbergja #action sandbergja will put out a formal call for DIG facilitator
13:37 kmlussier I'll also hold off on the release coordinator call. I don't want to put out too many calls for volunteers at the same time and possibly distract somebody's attention away from the facilitator positions.
13:37 sandbergja Fair enough!
13:37 dluch Thanks for facilitating us for now, sandbergja!
13:37 sandbergja No problem!
13:37 dluch sandbergja++
13:37 kbutler sandbergja++
13:37 jihpringle sandbergja++
13:37 kmlussier sandbergja++
13:38 sandbergja Thanks, everyone!
13:38 sandbergja #topic Progress on Documentation-related bugs in launchpad
13:38 sandbergja Switching gears a bit
13:39 sandbergja This is more for my information.  Is anybody super-actively working on these?
13:39 sandbergja #link https://bugs.launchpad.net/evergr​een/+bugs?field.tag=documentation
13:40 sandbergja And what should their priority be compared to all the other stuff that DIG works on?
13:40 kmlussier No. It might be nice to highlight those for Bug Squashing day in case there are any DIG folks who want to help out on the doc side of things.
13:41 sandbergja So we can informally put out the word that "there are docs bugs too" next time the bug squashing day publicity comes around?
13:41 kmlussier It might be a good start.
13:42 sandbergja That sounds good to me!
13:42 sandbergja Thanks for the info.
13:42 sandbergja #topic Progress on Web Client docs
13:42 * kmlussier sometimes files those bugs just as a reminder that there is a simple doc change she wants to change, but it doesn't help.
13:43 sandbergja Thanks again to jihpringle for helping us get some time scheduled to work on these
13:43 sandbergja Does anybody have some updates or observations on Web client docs?
13:44 kmlussier I think we're getting to the point now, with the web client, that we really need to buckle down on getting these docs done. The February hack date will help.
13:44 kmlussier But I'm guessing that we'll want to include it in the 2.12 hack date too just because we're hoping the web client gets much production use for the next release.
13:46 sandbergja That's exciting!
13:46 dluch I agree, kmlussier
13:46 jihpringle do we have any web docs publicly accessible currently?
13:46 sandbergja jihpringle: a few
13:46 kmlussier This could probably be updated - https://wiki.evergreen-ils.org/dok​u.php?id=evergreen-docs:webclient
13:47 sandbergja #link http://docs.evergreen-ils.org/​2.11/_web_client_preview.html
13:47 sandbergja Here's a question: how much documentation do you think a library would need when adopting the Web client after using the XUL client?
13:48 kmlussier sandbergja: I could probably take an action item to update the web client doc needs page. I spend a lot of time in the web client.
13:48 sandbergja kmlussier++
13:48 sandbergja A lot of screens are very similar in XUL client vs. Web client
13:48 kmlussier sandbergja: A lot of the interfaces are very similar to the xul ones, so they may not need the docs to transition. But there are a few others that are different, particularly in cataloging.
13:49 jihpringle this may not be a question we're ready to answer, but are we planning to a have a separate book for the webclient or have the webclient docs within the 2.12 book with the staff client docs?
13:49 kmlussier I'm thinking the Holdings View is a bit different from holdings maintenance. Also, the volume/copy editor has a lot of differences.
13:49 sandbergja #action kmlussier will update the web client doc needs page
13:50 kmlussier jihpringle: Eventually, it should take the place of the staff client docs. The current structure, IMO, should be temporary while people are still moving from one to the other.
13:50 sandbergja That's helpful; thanks all for the conversation.
13:50 sandbergja #topic Progress on Docs Reorganization Project
13:51 sandbergja We actually have some reorganized docs!
13:51 sandbergja These are by no means complete, just conversation starters to get people excited about the project again. :-)
13:51 sandbergja Here's a manual for local sysadmins:
13:51 kmlussier Yay! sandbergja++
13:51 sandbergja #link http://docs-testing.evergreen-ils.o​rg/docs/reorg/staffclient_sysadmin/
13:51 sandbergja And a small one for front-line circ staff:
13:52 sandbergja #link http://docs-testing.evergreen-i​ls.org/docs/reorg/circulation/
13:52 sandbergja I'm hoping to get the Docs Reorg group back together at some point to look these over, and try to figure out where to go from here
13:53 sandbergja But am also more than happy to take suggestions now as well. :-)
13:54 bmills joined #evergreen
13:54 kmlussier At a first glance, it looks good, but I would need more time to look at it before giving specific feedback.
13:55 sandbergja That makes sense. :-)
13:55 sandbergja Did anybody have any topics for our last five minutes?
13:56 tspindler joined #evergreen
13:56 sandbergja Thanks again to everybody for all the crucial documentation work you do!

15:07 gmcharlt #topic Action items from last meeting
15:07 gmcharlt #info gmcharlt did not cut the OpenSRF 2.5-alpha release yet, but is typing release notes AS WE SPEAK
15:07 gmcharlt #action gmcharlt will release OpenSRF 2.5-alpha today (7 December 2016)
15:08 gmcharlt the 2.11 release announcement was blogged
15:08 gmcharlt kmlussier sent out the press release
15:08 gmcharlt the RM nominations and election took place
15:08 gmcharlt kmlussier++
15:09 gmcharlt and as it's a carry-over
15:09 Bmagic #info Bmagic = Blake GH, MOBIUS
15:09 gmcharlt #gmcharlt and Dyrcona to create guidelines on the wiki to determine what is a bug fix vs. new feature.
15:09 gmcharlt -- in particular, to suggest guidelines for what should be backported
15:09 gmcharlt so, I think that does it for action items from back in the mists of time
15:09 gmcharlt so moving on
15:10 gmcharlt #topic OpenSRF release info
15:10 gmcharlt #info OpenSRF 2.5 alpha to be cut on 7 December
15:10 gmcharlt so, with respect to the alpha, there are some things in particular I'd like to request testing for
15:10 gmcharlt 1. the proxy configurations
15:10 jeff TZ changes?
15:10 gmcharlt 2. bundling and chunking
15:10 jeff er, you're listing.
15:11 gmcharlt 3. TZ changes
15:11 gmcharlt and there's a potential decision point for us
15:11 gmcharlt namely, do we want to consider having use of a proxy be a default recommended configuration?
15:12 gmcharlt and whether or not we do that, I'm thinking that before 2.5.0, we should make the default websockets port become a configure-time parameter
15:12 gmcharlt thoughts?
15:12 jeff are you making a distinction between recommendation and requirement?
15:13 gmcharlt jeff: I am, I think
15:13 gmcharlt "requirement" to me suggests that we bite the bullet and have Evergreen users move over to that configuration
15:13 gmcharlt but... that's a mare's nest
15:13 Dyrcona #info Dyrcona = Jason Stephenson, C/W MARS
15:13 jeff +1 to making websockets port be not-hardcoded
15:13 JBoyer I think in the long run it would be preferable to shave some weight off of the perl modules loaded in apache processes so it's not necessary at all, but that's not going to be done soon.
15:13 jeff +1 to recommending proxy
15:13 JBoyer also +1 to build time port settings
15:13 jeff +1 to recommending proxy for production
15:14 jeff (clarifying/qualifying my previous +1)
15:14 berick +1 to moving toward proxy recommendation.  i know of at least one bug using the proxy w/ EG, where a redirectmatch sends the ser from /eg/staff to 7443:/eg/staff/
15:14 berick i.e. the internal port number leaks
15:14 gmcharlt whoopsie
15:14 gmcharlt and that's certainly something to nail down before .0
15:15 berick so, it might need a little wider use before full blown recommendation
15:15 berick gmcharlt: to clarify, it's really an EG bug, but yea..
15:15 gmcharlt yeah, most of the question of full-blown recommendation would be on EG's end, particular for install documentatation
15:15 gmcharlt on the plus side, we have time before 2.12
15:16 gmcharlt any other questions or thoughts on OpenSRF?
15:16 berick yeah, and fwiw I've been using the osrf proxy for a while now and that's the only issue i've run into
15:16 gmcharlt cool
15:16 gmcharlt the haproxy config will require more testing, but it's what I"ll be running
15:17 gmcharlt ok,
15:17 gmcharlt moving on
15:17 gmcharlt #topic Evergreen releases
15:17 bshum Would it be good to make websockets required, rather than just optional in a future OpenSRF release?
15:17 bshum oops heh
15:17 dbwells One other questions related to chunking/bundling, Bmagic a few weeks back hit what appeared to be an incompatibility with that change in EG master.  It's probably possible to fix in a backwards compat. way, but regardless, are we assuming OSRF 2.5 will be recommended for EG 2.12+, or do we need it to work with other current releases?
15:18 gmcharlt it would be a niceness, but not required, that it work with current releases
15:18 gmcharlt dbwells: do you happen to have a bug # for that?
15:19 dbwells gmcharlt: I will find or make one and get back to you.
15:19 gmcharlt but unless something weird happens, I'm assuming that Evergreen 2.12 would require OpenSRF 2.5
15:19 gmcharlt dbwells++
15:19 gmcharlt any other OpenSRF stuff?
15:20 Dyrcona I'd say if there is a backwards compatibility issue that can't be resolved, then we need to support 2.4 until it is resolved or 2.11 is no longer supported.
15:20 gmcharlt that strikes me as easy enough
15:20 gmcharlt #info Evergreen 2.11.1 and 2.10.8 was released on 16 November 2016
15:20 Bmagic dbwells: could have been xenial support
15:21 gmcharlt kmlussier: anything you want to say about 2.12 at the moment?
15:22 kmlussier #info 2.12 schedule is set - http://markmail.org/message/4jmxknraen6k7nqr
15:22 bshum Bmagic: I was just thinking that if we do decide to keep OpenSRF 2.4 series around instead of going for 2.5, we should reconsider the decision not to backport Xenial support to that
15:22 kmlussier #info Roadmap entries can be added to the wiki at https://wiki.evergreen-ils.org/doku​.php?id=faqs:evergreen_roadmap:2.12
15:23 kmlussier As I mentioned at the hack-a-way, I would like to schedule some web client hacking days to help us get more work done on the browser client.
15:23 kmlussier I meant to schedule them as soon as I got back, but now a month has flown by. A question I have for the run, is it doable to try to squeeze one in before the holidays or should I plan on a January date?
15:25 * gmcharlt is thinking January
15:26 kmlussier OK, I'll proceed with a January date then.
15:26 kmlussier Also, I think bug 1642054 is the chunking issue mentioned by dbwells above.
15:26 pinesol_green Launchpad bug 1642054 in Evergreen "References to chunking need to be renamed to bundling" [High,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1642054
15:26 dbwells gmcharlt: found the bug, #1642054 .  kmlussier++
15:26 dbwells heh
15:26 kmlussier dbwells: Jinx!
15:26 gmcharlt dbwells: kmlussier: thanks
15:27 gmcharlt and at first blush, I think these can be readily resolved in such a way that 2.10/2.11 can run on top of OpenSRF 2.5.x
15:27 gmcharlt and for that matter, I'll mark that as a blocker for the OpenSRF 2.5-beta/2.5.0 release
15:28 gmcharlt kmlussier: anythhing else for the Evergreen release  topic?
15:28 kmlussier Nope
15:28 gmcharlt #topic Hatch
15:29 berick that's me
15:29 berick i think I said it all in the agenda..  basically, would like to get other eyes on the code / behavior
15:29 berick help me flesh out the dev install docs and make sure we're all still on the same page
15:30 gmcharlt #info Hatch omnibus bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/evergreen/+bug/1646166
15:30 pinesol_green Launchpad bug 1646166 in Evergreen "Hatch 2.12 Omnibus" [Undecided,New] - Assigned to Bill Erickson (berick)
15:30 jeff I'm still quite interested in that.
15:30 jeff So, I'll volunteer my eyes.
15:30 kmlussier I can test installing on Linux
15:30 berick i have one final note to add to the install docs, the final "here's how you actually use it" bit
15:31 gmcharlt I can take a look at OS X installation
15:31 berick but that'll just take a sec
15:31 berick (and I can do that today)
15:31 berick thanks jeff kmlussier gmcharlt
15:31 berick holler w/ any problems or confusion
15:31 berick gmcharlt: as noted, the mac stuff will be very at-your-own-risk at this point
15:31 berick well.. s/risk/you figure it out/
15:32 berick but I have made it work
15:32 gmcharlt "let's see, should I push that largish button that has an inviting shade of scarlet?"
15:33 berick always
15:33 gmcharlt :)
15:33 gmcharlt anything else for Hatch?
15:33 berick i think that's it from me
15:34 gmcharlt on to new business
15:34 gmcharlt #topic Documenting the release process
15:35 kmlussier I added that topic to the agenda to update y'all on the status of this, which was discussed at the hack-a-way.
15:35 kmlussier I am using https://wiki.evergreen-ils.org/doku.p​hp?id=dev:evergreen:release_checklist, which was developed back in the 2.2 days, as a starting point to outline who does what in the release process.
15:36 kmlussier I think we could also use this page to link to other wiki pages we have with more detailed instructions on how to build a release, how to do release notes, who to send pr to, etc.
15:37 kmlussier It's just a draft now, but if anyone has feedback, you know where to find me.
15:37 kmlussier Also, I just wanted to mention there are some roles there, like bug wrangler, where I don't think we have designated people.
15:38 kmlussier I don't know if we should fold those tasks into other roles or if we should try to get new volunteers to help with some of these tasks.
15:40 kmlussier But maybe I can flesh that out more with the other folks who volunteered to work on this.
15:40 gmcharlt gut feeling -- the more humans involved, the more we will need not only roles, but a specific timeframe
15:41 gmcharlt e.g., something along the lines of D-Day - 3: release notes finalized
15:41 gmcharlt D-Day - 1: tarballs built
15:41 gmcharlt and so forth
15:41 kmlussier Sure, I think that's doable.
15:42 kmlussier When we talked about this at the hack-a-way, I think we were also saying that it might not be one point person, but a group of known people who could be called upon when help is needed.
15:42 gmcharlt another suggestion (maybe nitpick) - perhaps the checklist should be put in the order that steps need to take place
15:42 gmcharlt e.g., since the release notes are included in the tarball, they need to be finalized before the buildmasters can bild
15:43 kmlussier sure
15:43 gmcharlt kmlussier: when and how would be the best way to get feedback to you?
15:44 kmlussier When could be the end of the month? That will give me time to improve it before the next dev meeting.
15:44 kmlussier How could be in IRC or e-mail. But I won't be around towards the end of the month, so e-mail may work better.
15:45 gmcharlt open-ils-dev, or to you directly?
15:45 kmlussier Why don't you give me an action item to post something to open-ils-dev to solicit feedback. Then, more discussion can happen there.
15:46 gmcharlt I can do that
15:46 gmcharlt #action kmlussier will post to open-ils-dev soliciting feedback on the release process documentation
15:47 gmcharlt anything else on this topic?
15:47 kmlussier nope
15:47 gmcharlt OK, that takes us to the end of the agenda, but before we end the meeting, is there anything else that somebody woul like to raise for immediate consideration?
15:48 gmcharlt going once
15:48 gmcharlt going twice
15:48 gmcharlt gone
15:49 gmcharlt now go forth and code and document for great justice!
