**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Wed Jun 11 11:02:40 2008

Jun 11 12:05 <srag> hello guys

Jun 11 12:06 <srag> We have 2.23.4 on monday and I want all of you to have a glance at the patches for it

Jun 11 12:06 <jony> mcrha: http://cr.yp.to/smtp/ehlo.html

Jun 11 12:06 <srag> feel free to cross boundaries if you are confident :)

Jun 11 12:07 <mcrha> srag, what kind of glance?

Jun 11 12:07 <srag> jony, :)

Jun 11 12:07 <mcrha> jony, * BYE [ALERT] ehlo not supported

Jun 11 12:07 <srag> mcrha, look at the unreviewed and see if you can review and help the module

Jun 11 12:07 <jony> hehe

Jun 11 12:07 <mcrha> srag, hmm

Jun 11 12:07 <srag> mcrha, feel free to review the pending list, if its not by you :)

Jun 11 12:08 *mcrha hides

Jun 11 12:08 <srag> :)

Jun 11 12:08 <mcrha> I will look, I promise

Jun 11 12:08 <srag> Me and sankar are tied up with disk summary and looks like it is going smooth

Jun 11 12:08 <srag> we have local/imap up and running under disk summary

Jun 11 12:09 <srag> feel free to move yourself to that branch, and help us fix issues :)

Jun 11 12:09 <psankar> imap is not fully done yet though

Jun 11 12:09 <psankar> but we welcome poeple to use that branch :-)

Jun 11 12:09 <srag> thx to jony for volunteering to write the migration

Jun 11 12:09 <jony> srag: yep !

Jun 11 12:09 <psankar> hey.... All hail jony

Jun 11 12:09 <srag> psankar, I assume that you will commit it by EOD :)

Jun 11 12:09 <psankar> srag, yeah. Let me see.

Jun 11 12:09 <psankar> hopefully should be done

Jun 11 12:10 <srag> Im trying various things with vfolders, to see, if I can make it super fast.

Jun 11 12:10 <srag> Can anyone take up the job to see if "Unmatched" vfolder is that useful ?

Jun 11 12:11 <srag> by killing that I can cut ~50% memory requirements

Jun 11 12:11 <jony> ( power users may complain . )

Jun 11 12:11 <psankar> *will complain* ;-)

Jun 11 12:11 <srag> apart from that, abharath is going good with Evo on Windows

Jun 11 12:11 <mcrha> I think I saw someone using it. rather ask on mailing list I think

Jun 11 12:12 <srag> mcrha, right. I want to delegate it as, I tend to forget all the 9/10 things I have by doing just 1/10 (disk summary core thing)

Jun 11 12:12 *schooms sees the effects of manager-training ;)

Jun 11 12:12 *shashish (~shashish@ecoprobe-dmz.gns.novell.com) has joined #evolution-meet

Jun 11 12:13 <srag> I assume that we soon would have a well supported windows port of Evolution

Jun 11 12:13 <srag> Thatz it from my side, we can go around the channel

Jun 11 12:13 <srag> chen, anything to share with us ?

Jun 11 12:16 <srag> lakhil, ok

Jun 11 12:16 <srag> mcrha, anything to share with us ?

Jun 11 12:16 <mcrha> nothing much, I was and will be more tight with local (company) stuff, so less time for you.

Jun 11 12:17 <srag> :)

Jun 11 12:17 <mcrha> but now, I will look to libgweather finally

Jun 11 12:17 <mcrha> it doesn't seem to be much complicated

Jun 11 12:17 <srag> mcrha, porting weather cal to that ?

Jun 11 12:17 <mcrha> somehow, I will need help with tweaking with autoconf

Jun 11 12:17 <mcrha> yup

Jun 11 12:17 <srag> ok

Jun 11 12:17 <srag> mcrha, we will take local provider with jeff offline

Jun 11 12:18 <mcrha> ok

Jun 11 12:18 <srag> another thing is that I'm planning to write a repair-folder plugin that helps you generate summaries on the fly

Jun 11 12:18 *andre (~andre@f053152159.adsl.alicedsl.de) has joined #evolution-meet

Jun 11 12:18 *monkey|bot gives channel operator status to andre

Jun 11 12:18 <srag> to overcome the corrupted mboxes

Jun 11 12:18 <mcrha> will it try to save as much as possible?

Jun 11 12:18 <mcrha> you know, custom flags/tags

Jun 11 12:18 *srag wonders if andre just joined or was hidden and showed up while discussing one of his issues ;-)

Jun 11 12:19 <mcrha> yeah, what a coincidence

Jun 11 12:19 <andre> harrrr, broken mboxes, harrrrr (with a pirate grin)

Jun 11 12:19 <srag> mcrha, I would for now, concentrate on fixing the brokeness

Jun 11 12:19 <srag> mcrha, rest we can look at later

Jun 11 12:19 <srag> psankar, anything for us ?

Jun 11 12:20 <mcrha> srag, brokeness in general or?

Jun 11 12:20 <psankar> srag, Updates: disappointed at being not able to construct a nest for myself ;) - Workwise - Going good on disk-summary :-)

Jun 11 12:20 <jony> psankar: is getting ready : looking for a bride ? ;-)

Jun 11 12:20 <srag> mcrha, the corruption of mboxes and fixing the summary right

Jun 11 12:20 <psankar> jony, nope. in a way.. trying to delay it ;-)

Jun 11 12:20 <srag> jony, hehe

Jun 11 12:21 <jony> :)

Jun 11 12:21 <srag> schooms, anything to share with us ?

Jun 11 12:21 <mcrha> srag, ahh, ok

Jun 11 12:21 <schooms> srag: progress has been tough and slow on MAPI - i'm working on meetings (its still far far away)

Jun 11 12:21 <srag> schooms, take a train ;-)

Jun 11 12:21 <schooms> :)

Jun 11 12:21 <srag> seb128, anything to share with us ?

Jun 11 12:22 <seb128> srag: not really, you guys are doing a great job ;-)

Jun 11 12:22 <mcrha> seb128, lakhil, no hot bugs?

Jun 11 12:22 <srag> apart from the Google Calendar bugs? chen and schooms will look into the top google cal bugs, till ebby get alive

Jun 11 12:22 <seb128> the google calendar is an annoying one indeed

Jun 11 12:22 <lakhil> mcrha, i have :)

Jun 11 12:22 <andre> there's lots of users in #evo complaining about google cal, indeed

Jun 11 12:22 <seb128> it breaks gnome-panel for many users and doesn't work correctly in evolution

Jun 11 12:22 <chen> srag, yeah, am just getting the list of blocking issues

Jun 11 12:23 <seb128> there is the evolution-exchange busy loop issue too

Jun 11 12:23 <chen> to get it resolved during this week and next

Jun 11 12:23 <srag> yep, seb128. so which is why, Im pulling chen/  schooms for the moment to get it going smoothly

Jun 11 12:23 <chen> spoke with ebby on it and it seems he will not be able to work atleast for a month

Jun 11 12:23 <srag> seb128, feel free to get the bug via email or CC in bugzilla

Jun 11 12:23 <seb128> and the gnome-keyring code which doesn't handle storing password when no username is provided (which is the case for some calendars apparently) which is a regression for ubuntu since we switched to use gnome-keyring for password storage

Jun 11 12:24 *schooms wanted to ask that

Jun 11 12:24 <schooms> so that's fixed?

Jun 11 12:24 <seb128> srag: thanks, I'll Cc in bugzilla on the bugs where I didn't do that already

Jun 11 12:24 <srag> seb128, sure.

Jun 11 12:24 <srag> schooms, fixed what ?

Jun 11 12:25 <schooms> the keyring issue on ubuntu

Jun 11 12:25 <seb128> schooms: which ones?

Jun 11 12:25 <chen> seb128, I mailed you a patch for  timezone issue, a user from ubuntu reported the issue on evolution-list

Jun 11 12:26 <seb128> chen: right, I've uploaded it as an hardy update candidate some days ago and verified it fixes the weird timezones, thanks!

Jun 11 12:26 <seb128> chen: looks like I forgot to reply to the mail though ;-)

Jun 11 12:26 <chen> nice!!

Jun 11 12:26 <schooms> seb128: the keyring prompt appearing endlessly.. (i don't have a bug ID handy)

Jun 11 12:26 <chen> np :)

Jun 11 12:26 <seb128> schooms: ah, that might be http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=534946

Jun 11 12:26 <srag> Ok guys, anything else to discuss ?

Jun 11 12:26 <jony> seb128: you'll be in GUADEC ?

Jun 11 12:26 <schooms> yep..

Jun 11 12:27 <seb128> jony: yes

Jun 11 12:27 <srag> Oops I missed shashish

Jun 11 12:27 <lakhil> srag, have 3-4 issues for monday's release if we can get in them, it will great

Jun 11 12:27 <jony> nice .

Jun 11 12:27 <srag> shashish, any updates ?

Jun 11 12:27 <srag> lakhil, sure. Mail me ?

Jun 11 12:27 <lakhil> srag, fine

Jun 11 12:27 <shashish> srag, nothing much...worked on bug fixes and some backporting..and looking forward to start non-intrusive error dialog

Jun 11 12:27 <srag> seb128, thatz fixed

Jun 11 12:27 <srag> shashish, ok

Jun 11 12:28 <seb128> srag: ah right, I just noticed ;-)

Jun 11 12:28 <srag> :)

Jun 11 12:28 <srag> Ok guys, see you all next week.

Jun 11 12:28 <srag> bye every one

Jun 11 12:28 *psankar has quit (psankar)

Jun 11 12:28 <andre> btw, will mbox corruption be fixed for 2.22.x (or only 2.23.x)?

Jun 11 12:28 <chen> bye

Jun 11 12:28 *shashish (~shashish@ecoprobe-dmz.gns.novell.com) has left #evolution-meet

Jun 11 12:29 <srag> andre, I need to see how the plugin comes up

Jun 11 12:29 <andre> ok

Jun 11 12:29 <srag> if I can put up a patch which distros can pickup, it will be great. as a new plugin mean UI/String break

Jun 11 12:30 <andre> well - didn't we have a bool to hide "system" plugins that shouldn't be shown/deactivated?

Jun 11 12:31 <andre> imo we don't need to ask the user if he wants evo in a usable state ;-)

Jun 11 12:31 <srag> andre, but, the corruption can be found only by the user and need to invoke repair folder

Jun 11 12:32 <andre> the corruption is found by evo, otherwise i wouldn't get the error message that there's a FROM header missing (or whatever that error string is)

Jun 11 12:32 <seb128> what effect does the corruption has?

Jun 11 12:32 <andre> i've run into this 3 times now

Jun 11 12:32 <andre> seb128, message list pane and message preview don't match

Jun 11 12:32 <seb128> can that lead to "display a preview which doesn't correspond to the selected message"?

Jun 11 12:32 <andre> yupp

Jun 11 12:32 <seb128> ah ok, we got some bugs about that

Jun 11 12:32 <andre> and everytime switching to another folder evo tried to restore the folder. that takes a minute for my inbox

Jun 11 12:33 <andre> seb128, URLs?

Jun 11 12:33 <srag> andre, that repair would happen automatically, but things like mismatch of list vs preview need to be invoked by the  user

Jun 11 12:34 <andre> hmm. okay, you know the code :)

Jun 11 12:34 <seb128> andre: those are ubuntu bugs, I didn't send that upstream because there was no real useful informations there and I was not sure what to ask to the submitters

Jun 11 12:34 <andre> srag: anyway, please fix for 2.22 if possible and ask for string break. that's really a big issue that makes me think of switching to TB

Jun 11 12:34 <srag> andre, sure

Jun 11 12:34 <andre> seb128, i'm also interested in ubuntu bugs :)

Jun 11 12:35 <andre> got to run to get to university, see you later

Jun 11 12:35 *andre is now known as andre|afk

Jun 11 12:35 *srag (~sragavan@ecoprobe-dmz.gns.novell.com) has left #evolution-meet
