2013 05 30 meeting

Format: IRC (#geomoose on freenode, webclient) Time: May 30, 2013

Attendance

  • Bob from Maine, Jim, Dan, Eli, BrianW, Tanya

Incubation

Still working on the Press Release. The plan is to pass this along to Brian as the PSC Chair, and have him post to the OSGeo News feed.

If there are any particular items that folks want to see in a press release just add them here.

The current thinking on a 2.8/3.0

  • This thinking is predicated on RFC-4 passing and working in github
  • Develop Dojo 1.9 support in github
  • Short discussion of release numbering scheme
  • Discuss definition of public api, at least GeoMOOSE.* seems to be general consensus also discussed in RFC-3
  • Dojo 1.9 means AMD loader (i.e. touch all .js files)
  • Also opportunity to fix main.js
  • Name-spacing quirks a possibility
  • Changing view of GeoMOOSE's javascript library, GeoMOOSE really becomes a collection of *very* useful 'Digits' and a GeoMOOSE application wires them together.

2.6.2 release sometime soon too

  • Jim has a few things to add for 2.6.2

RFC-3 GeoMOOSE Release Process

  • Jim called for RFC-3 vote on list
  • Eli objects to inclusion of "Others??? (Please fill in!)" in RFC, votes -1
  • Jim is friendly to amendment, revises it and now we wait the 2 day waiting period to vote again

RFC-4 GeoMOOSE Commit Management (including GitHub migration)

  • RFC-4: came out of the code sprint and the idea is that it should be easier for people to contribute to the project and easier for people to maintain customized versions of the project that still track the main version and still make it easy to push patches back to the main version if we switch to git.
  • The thought is that the 2.6 and older branches would stay in subversion, and git would start clean with 2.8/3.0.
  • Lots of talk about tickets/issues, different repos, linking of commits and issues

Review of Tickets

  • This link was pasted in reference to milestone 2.6.2

Website

  • Idea is to separate the (non GM version specific) project files from the (GM specific version) code and doc files
  • Maybe new sub domain of docs.geomoose.org (docs.geomoose.org/trunk, /#.#, too)
  • www.geomoose.org would just have project info and pointers/links to docs
