* Janet will enter JIRA tasks for 1) configuring isda-build1 for front end build and 2) Robin to finish mavenizing front end build

* Brian  asked for better bug writing: explicit descriptions for bugs, descriptions of fix so QA knows more about the cause and what to test,  and build version that the fix appears in, so he knows the fix was tested.

* Brian also asked that if there are bugs we wish to mark "wont fix" because a larger upcoming feature makes them non-issues, then put a comment in, and assign them to the sprint where the feature that will fix them lives. That way they can stay int he system as placeholders, and be closed when the new feature is in place and they truly are no longer issues.

Reverted thalia-dev and thalia-test to Alf 2.0.1 from the (dysfunctional) Alf 2.1E install, provisioned gybe.mit.edu for temporary use as a Thalia IME server for testing against al-dente/al-fresco.

Tweaked Continuum a bit; seems to be doing everything it should, though it's conservative (possibly overconservative) about sending email.

...

Maybe some performance testing vs. 2.1.

...

The thalia-test group is most appropriate for testing but is not yet running Alfresco 2.1.

made a thumbnail graphic

add calls to check permission before getting thumbnail/medium/large
added code to handle alfresco sessions (use session id to reuse alfresco tomcat sesssions instead of opening a session with every alfresco call)
tested the new code on thalia-dev

...

look at alfresco's source code to understand more how they manage their ticket lifetime and make sure that we are handling the ticket cache accordingly
test to make sure that we are not opening too many alfresco sessions

Lots of other work.

Testing out 2.1.1 with a Thalia Frontend.  Setup 2.1E for install on thalia-test for QA next week.  Both will go into tomorrow.

...

Time.  Inordinate number of meetings.  Alfresco.

...

Janet

started reorganizing wiki
asked Michael Dutton to push back useability to mid- to late-January; suggested we recruit testers from our IAP session

...

tbd - haven't planned the day yet

...

Justin

...

Finished all remaining sprint 2 issues

...

Spending rest of week on Kerberos tasks

...

 

...

Qing

...

changed the thumbnail/medium/large permission and modified the url for getting thumbnail
medium/large (it goes through IME instead of talking directory to Alfresco). Tested the code
thalia-dev and are happy with the performance
However, if the user doesn't have permission to thumbnail/medium/large and tries to get it,
Alfresco stupidly opens the login screen instead of giving the access denied error. Will have
to add an addiotnal call to alfresco to check permission (will impact the performace)

...

add calls to check permission before getting thumbnail/medium/large
close ticket when purged from cache

...

 

...

Robin

...

Communicated with Open Laszlo about the impediment to tagging changes

...

Upload user confusion bug -- hide the progress bar except for when its uploading, and make it clear that user needs to click the "upload" button when done.

almost nil

Finish Continuum work.

1) The only site with meaningful Continuum documentation was being DoS'd all day yesterday.  2)  A bunch of non-Thalia quasi-operational stuff came up that needed most of my time. 3) Some much-delayed dental work has become undelayable and will consume an as-yet-unknown portion of my day.

Justin

  1. Finished up as much load time work as I feel should be done in this sprint
  1. Clear up remaining sprint 2 tasks (deleting images from slideshow, ss player in separate window, button highlighting in ss player)

 

Qing

tickets are cached now and the app seems to function ok

change the thumbnail permission and modify the item servlet to get thumbnail, large, and medium images. Make sure the performance is acceptable

 

Robin

  1. Met with SAP, wrote up notes, entered tasks into JIRA
  2. Worked more on referencing problem with datasets within a class
  1.  Write up and send to Open Laszlo description of problem I'm having; ask them to make it a high-priority incident.
  2. Look through bug list, see what else I might get done for this release.

not feeling well, will be online as much as I can, but likely will be taking naps/breaks

good progress reducing thalia swf size, committing changes soon

  2. other remaining tasks

compared several opensource caching solutions and decided to use ehcache (the one Alfresco uses)
removed my own simple caching classes from the code and replace the user cache with ehcache

...

Learned more about the continuum server and did more setup work on it; it should now be doing everything we want except for the deployment to thalia-dev.

...

Get auto-deployment working and figure out why the mail that should be going out isn't.

...

The Continuum documentation is somewhere between bad and nonexistent.  (It's very bleeding-edge; this is not unexpected.)

...

Arnis

Hunter

...

Got Alfresco to cluster correctly w/ 2.1.1 and replication and index caching working correctly between al-fresco and al-dente.  The Alf, Inc. suggested method of dropping the new .WAR file in place and restarting fell down and went boom.  Ended up also bringing in a bunch of the new, rewritten, restructured config files to mix with the 'old' ones from 2.1E.  Many things moved from fringe config files to the core ones.  Should have the thaliaAdmin and guestUser accounts with default passwds, if anyone wants to play with them.

...

Testing al-fresco/al-dente with a Thalia front end.  May not get to set that up until later today, and really working on it until tomorrow night.
Goals: Decide if we want to use 2.1E or 2.1.1 for the release.  Get thalia-test set up on one of them by end of Sprint to begin testing with.  May go w. 2.1E on thalia-test proper and leave 2.1.1 up on al-fresco/al-dente so we can do side-by-side testing, if we want to go that route.

...

Alfresco.

Notes:

Justin

...

  1. created scriptable process for creating our UI art from source PSD files (refamiliarized self with Photoshop actions)

...

  1. Deleting images from slideshows

...

  1. Dividing time with Kerberos work

...

Qing

...

1. fixed out a bug on tagging code to allow deletion of all tags on an item
2. branched the code and started coding access control changes

...

continue coding on access control

...

not sure how caching ticket will work. lots of questions need to be answered, like how to avoid race condition and how to close connection so the alfresco session will not be left open. (the caching code needs to be both fast and robust)

...

Robin

...

  1. Sent out tagging spec, updated from our meeting discussion, to QA.
  2. Put in a fix for the auto-scrolling -- this needs testing though.

...

  1.  Dig into the tagging changes

...

Have to go get blood drawn at some point, so will be out for an hour and a half or so
