[05.12.2011 16:53:49] Tobias Schoeneberg: ok :) next one [05.12.2011 16:53:52] Teodor Sarca: +1 [05.12.2011 16:53:53] Teodor Sarca: ;) [05.12.2011 16:54:03] Tobias Schoeneberg: Suggestion to have silent participants in Team Meetings [05.12.2011 16:54:39] Michael McKay: +1. No problems wih that. [05.12.2011 16:54:49] Teodor Sarca: +1 for *silent* participation [05.12.2011 16:54:51] Victor Perez Juarez: so we should continue using the sf.net tracker system?, or maybe we can migrate to something else easier. [05.12.2011 16:54:53] Victor Perez Juarez: ? [05.12.2011 16:55:01] Tobias Schoeneberg: +1 from me, too [05.12.2011 16:55:10] Mark Ostermann: +1 [05.12.2011 16:55:19] Tobias Schoeneberg: ok, next one [05.12.2011 16:55:36] Tobias Schoeneberg: pls have a look at http://www.adempiere.com/Functional_Team#20111205__.28together_with_Technical_Team.29 [05.12.2011 16:55:37] Mario Calderón: +1 [05.12.2011 16:55:45] Tobias Schoeneberg: is there more to talk about? [05.12.2011 16:55:56] Tobias Schoeneberg: i mean, about "Emiliano: Statement from FT/ TT about author erasure. What has been answered in Forum already? " [05.12.2011 16:56:19 | Bearbeitet 16:56:25] Tobias Schoeneberg: or do we agree with mark that it's finished? [05.12.2011 16:56:40] Mark Ostermann: ... not finished completely [05.12.2011 16:56:42] Teodor Sarca: i would say that the whole topic deserves a quick discussion. [05.12.2011 16:56:52] Mark Ostermann: sql scripts stuff still open [05.12.2011 16:57:03] Teodor Sarca: i mean just to everybody agree what is done and what is not done [05.12.2011 16:57:10] Teodor Sarca: e.g. [05.12.2011 16:57:11] Teodor Sarca: [Montag, 5. Dezember 2011 16:56] Mark Ostermann: <<< sql scripts stuff still open [05.12.2011 16:58:10] Tobias Schoeneberg: [Montag, 5. Dezember 2011 16:57] Teodor Sarca: <<< sql scripts stuff still openok..imho, the person creating the script should put there name to the top. if they don't, it's there problem. wdyt? [05.12.2011 16:58:45] Teodor Sarca: hmmm, to be very correct, as i understand, the answer is yes and no [05.12.2011 16:59:12] Teodor Sarca: if the person is uploading them to our mercurial or our trackers, i would say yes, you are right [05.12.2011 16:59:43] Teodor Sarca: but as i understand (correct me if I am wrong, because now i am not sure) those were taken from an external repository [05.12.2011 16:59:58] Teodor Sarca: so in that case i would suggest to put the name of the contributor on top of the script [05.12.2011 17:00:26] Teodor Sarca: i mean, i really don't want to have another painful discussions as we had [05.12.2011 17:00:31] Michael McKay: What is the important result of this? What do we want to achieve? [05.12.2011 17:00:54] Mark Ostermann: a) autom. author in migr. scripts [05.12.2011 17:01:16 | Bearbeitet 17:02:05] Mark Ostermann: b) -u parameter "with original author" in commit when code is taken from external repository [05.12.2011 17:01:39] Teodor Sarca: i would suggest to go with a) [05.12.2011 17:02:22] Teodor Sarca: and in case they are transplanted, automatically we are in case b) [05.12.2011 17:02:33] Mark Ostermann: yes [05.12.2011 17:02:40] Michael McKay: I don't think the -u parameter will work unless you are going to restrict commits to single files. Can we divorce the author of the code from the "clerical" author of the commit? [05.12.2011 17:02:53] Michael McKay: The importance is the history. Where did it come from. [05.12.2011 17:03:15] Mark Ostermann: [Montag, 5. Dezember 2011 17:02] Teodor Sarca: <<< and in case they are transplantedand in cases of FR/ BF patches. or not? [05.12.2011 17:03:27] Teodor Sarca: IMHO, NOT! [05.12.2011 17:03:52] Teodor Sarca: i mean, for all manual contributions to repo we shall go with case a) [05.12.2011 17:04:05] Teodor Sarca: because in most of the cases, i am sorry but I don't care from where it come [05.12.2011 17:04:17] Teodor Sarca: but who introduced and so shall be asked to fix or somthing.... [05.12.2011 17:04:42] Teodor Sarca: and as far as I see, mercurial is a SCM and not a meritocracy system, sorry :)) [05.12.2011 17:05:31] Teodor Sarca: what i think is important is to have the names of contributors in our release logs [05.12.2011 17:05:39] Teodor Sarca: that is *important* [05.12.2011 17:06:18] Michael McKay: Thats what I mean by important history. The path through a thousand changes is not that relevant. [05.12.2011 17:08:06] Tobias Schoeneberg: ok do we agree to apply a), but not b) for now? [05.12.2011 17:08:36] Tobias Schoeneberg: and if so, what do we do until the "automatic" of a) has been implemented? [05.12.2011 17:08:59] Tobias Schoeneberg: suggestion: leave it to the SQL-author to add their name manually [05.12.2011 17:09:11] Teodor Sarca: tobi, i think this is a particular case [05.12.2011 17:09:38] Teodor Sarca: and i think it would apply only when we take something manually from a remote repository [05.12.2011 17:09:43] Teodor Sarca: e.g. globalqss case [05.12.2011 17:09:47] Teodor Sarca: for the rest: [05.12.2011 17:10:01] Mario Calderón: bye people, I have to leave.... [05.12.2011 17:10:11] Teodor Sarca: * contributor shall set his name in sql scripts if uploaded in trackers [05.12.2011 17:10:30] Teodor Sarca: * if contrbutor is also commiter, we has the name in the commit [05.12.2011 17:10:34] Michael McKay: Bye Mario. Have a great day. [05.12.2011 17:10:37] Teodor Sarca: bye mario [05.12.2011 17:10:40] Tobias Schoeneberg: by mario [05.12.2011 17:11:03] Teodor Sarca: so, i think we somehow we discuss to apply this rule retroactively for Carlos complains [05.12.2011 17:12:46] Tobias Schoeneberg: retroactively? you mean, identify all SQL from carlos-branch and add his name? [05.12.2011 17:13:11] Teodor Sarca: nop, we can apply only on those 4 cases.... [05.12.2011 17:13:29] Teodor Sarca: because in rest of them, carlos is the author of mercurial / svn commit [05.12.2011 17:14:25] Tobias Schoeneberg: ok [05.12.2011 17:14:40] Tobias Schoeneberg: mike, mark any comments? [05.12.2011 17:16:15] Michael McKay: Sorry - in and out. Agree to address the areas of complaint on a case by case basis. [05.12.2011 17:16:43] Mark Ostermann: me too. not a mass update, just because the committ came from carlos [05.12.2011 17:17:23] Michael McKay: Or to be more general - for a complaint brought by a community member. [05.12.2011 17:17:50 | Bearbeitet 17:18:08] Tobias Schoeneberg: ok, but for the four cases of carlos, and if we manually take something from a remote repo, we add the original author's name? before thate is any complaint? [05.12.2011 17:18:24] Teodor Sarca: [Montag, 5. Dezember 2011 17:17] Tobias Schoeneberg: <<< ok, but for the four cases of carlos, and if we manually take something from a remote repo, we add the original author's name? before thate is any complaint?yes, exactly, +1 [05.12.2011 17:18:40] Tobias Schoeneberg: (fyi, i need to leave in around 30 minutes) [05.12.2011 17:19:08] Tobias Schoeneberg: thate=there [05.12.2011 17:19:09] Teodor Sarca: then, let's press the gas pedal :) [05.12.2011 17:19:52] Tobias Schoeneberg: OK, so for the four cases of carlos, and if we manually take something from a remote repo, we add the original author's name?

[05.12.2011 17:26:00 | Bearbeitet 17:26:07] Mark Ostermann: just to be sure [05.12.2011 17:26:04] Tobias Schoeneberg: correct [05.12.2011 17:26:17] Michael McKay: Agreed. [05.12.2011 17:26:20] Mark Ostermann: ok, +1 from my side [05.12.2011 17:26:22] Tobias Schoeneberg: ok [05.12.2011 17:26:27] Tobias Schoeneberg: next one [05.12.2011 17:26:29] Tobias Schoeneberg: ADempiereIdGenerator.java pluggable [05.12.2011 17:26:36] Mark Ostermann: +1 [05.12.2011 17:26:38] Mark Ostermann: :) [05.12.2011 17:26:56] Mark Ostermann: teo said, it can be quickly done [05.12.2011 17:26:59] Teodor Sarca: +1, but who will finish it ? i already provided to red1 the partial solution....

[05.12.2011 17:37:20] Tobias Schoeneberg: i think we can leave it to him to decide [05.12.2011 17:38:00] Mark Ostermann: i just thought it would be a good FR for FT/ TT. We already have started with our solution. Would be good to compare how the brazilians want to solve this problem and we could see if we can merge/ combine our efforts somehow [05.12.2011 17:38:27] Mark Ostermann: i think we can leave it to him to decideyes, sure [05.12.2011 17:38:45] Tobias Schoeneberg: i think the most convenient solution for us would be a FR in the adempiere-repo.

Re MSProject. +1 I'm aware of serveral large companies that are struggling to implement MSProject in a SAP environment. Teh key problem is tracking of project data.
