PeterThoeny: hi terje, either place is fine
sorry, i have not yet looked at your proposal
TerjeAndersen: no worries
PeterThoeny: just glanced over it, looks useful!
TerjeAndersen: nice :-) i have implemented it locally and it seems to be working without errors
PeterThoeny: the ldapcontrib at http://twiki.org/cgi-bin/view/Plugins/LdapContrib has a "PleaseFeelFreeToModify" modification policy
that means you can go ahead and implement this enhancement
TerjeAndersen: the plan is to launch it on the production servers in a months time with around 38000 potential twiki users, will be exciting to see...
PeterThoeny: cool!
that would be one of the largest twiki
TerjeAndersen: yep, the correct place to implement it is in /trunk/LdapContrib ?
PeterThoeny: the largest i am aware of is morgan stanley with over 20k active users
TerjeAndersen: well, only a small amount of these users will actually be using TWiki i think
mhm, I think they have a larger active user base than us (Cern)
PeterThoeny: you have commit access to svn trunk and twiki-5.1 branch
so you can do the checkin directly
TerjeAndersen: mhm
commits to trunk requires a bug-item correct? while the branch does not?
PeterThoeny: yes, system of record for most extensions is svn trunk
yes, you need to create a bug item for each feature or bug fix
checkin only works with bug item number
such as: svn ci -m "Item1234: Adding blah blah"
TerjeAndersen: yep
PeterThoeny: i usually copy the changes of extensions also to the 5.1 branch
TerjeAndersen: yeah, was about to ask
you can use the same Item number on the branch commit, or isnt it needed?
PeterThoeny: so that trunk and latest branch are in sync
TerjeAndersen: yes
PeterThoeny: yes, same number, same comment
are you subscribed to [twiki-dev] mainline list?
TerjeAndersen: the zip file on Plugins.LdapContrib is generated manually?
yes I am
PeterThoeny: "mailing list" - stupid auto correction :-)
yes, by the build script
after checkin you can build
cd LdapContrib
cd lib/TWiki/Contrib/LdapContrib
./build upload
this builds the packages and also uploads them to twiki.org
TerjeAndersen: nice :-)
PeterThoeny: see also http://twiki.org/cgi-bin/view/Codev/BuildContribCookbook
TerjeAndersen: will do
PeterThoeny: anything else at this point? let me know, else i am ready to go to sleep
TerjeAndersen: Nope, basically you're saying that I can go ahead and implement what I think its right
And if someone disagrees, they roll it back, or discuss it with me in LdapContribDev, for example
PeterThoeny: yes, which rarely happens
TerjeAndersen: :)
Allright, thanks for your help now.. Have a good sleep!
PeterThoeny: sometimes some unintended things happen, it's discussed and then the person making the enhancement fixes it usually
all very casual
TerjeAndersen: i see
PeterThoeny: looking forward seeing your enhancements!
ttyl terje!
TerjeAndersen: ttyl!
