benjioh, ok.  Just wanted to make sure you knew it was in the wild00:01

tlotzewhat is the preferred way in Zope 3 to do a multiple choice field? there seems to be only a choice field which has only one value, or collections that know nothing about vocabularies. how to get a "collection with a vocab"?11:06

benjimy main objection is that it shifts the burden to the Z3 community, which doesn't have the resources to space17:31
benjis/space/spare/17:32
GaryPosterI'm afraid I agree.17:32
philiKONdefinitely a good point17:32
*** agroszer has quit IRC17:32
philiKONthough part of the point is also that zope 2 community starts doing zope 3 stuff also17:32
philiKONthe whole "things don't get invented twice" theme17:33
philiKONnote that the five community also doesn't have many resources to spare and the burden of keeping zop e2 and zope 3 in sync has been on them17:33
benjiI think that goal would be better served by saying *nothing* gets invented in Z2, if you want something new, put it in Z3 and use it via Five17:33
philiKONwell, that's exactly the idea17:33
philiKONbut one of my arguments is:17:34
benjiok, then the Z2 repo is frozen, exept for bug fixes17:34
philiKONgoing to the zope 3 repo, making a branch, implementing stuff there, making a branch in zope 2, making a branch there, etc. is just too much of a burden17:34
philiKONuh, then i think there was a misunderstanding17:34
philiKONthe idea is that we converge zope 2 and zope 317:34
philiKONwhich basically means zope 2 will evolve to use more zope 3 technology17:34
philiKONuntil one day it's just a different configuration of zope 3, maybe17:35
philiKON(that's another proposal i'm preparing ;))17:35
philiKONi dont' think simply "use it via Five' will be enough17:36
philiKONenough to close the gap between 3rd party zope 2 code and zope 317:36
philiKONI take your criticism seriously, but i think the risk is limited, as i do point out in the proposal: it basically comes down to running tests and mkaing sure you're not breaking anything. if you break something, check in on a branch and consult some zope 2 people; or, the fix might be trivial and you can fix it yourself17:37
philiKONin practice, i'm not sure that the burden would exhaust our resources17:38
benjiphiliKON, for making sure we get visibility of Z3 changes not breaking Z2, I'd use the buildbot to run automated tests instead, 90% of the benifit, 10% of the burdon17:40
philiKONwell, unless the buildbot is configured to use a special kind of setup, this won't work17:41
philiKONwith the current way, the zope 2 tree uses a special revision or tag of zope 317:42
philiKONthat is the way it should be done when using svn:externals17:42
philiKONso whoever updates the revision or tag to a newer zope 3 release has the burden of deailing with the fixes17:42
philiKONI was that person this time17:42
philiKONand it was a hell of a lot of work17:42
philiKONof course, this was a special case also17:42
benjiright, so the buildbot could run a "bleeding edge" test, with current Z3 and Z217:43
philiKONbut i did spend some unnecessary time on fixing a minor bug introduced by a bugfix in zope 317:43
philiKONexcept that noone else except the buildbot would have such a checkout... i wonder how useful that is17:43
benjiwell, if the buildbot can do it, a person can too, we can make it easy17:44
philiKONanyways, ZC has been advocating the zope.org repository, in particular the Zope 3 tree for zope3-related software, "because then it will be maintained as zope 3 is refactored"... this is taking this idea over to zope 2...17:44
benjithe root issue (as GaryPoster has just clarified for me off-line) is whether or not Z3 devs should be responsible for breaking Z2 (and Five)17:44
philiKONi agree that there is a burden (it's mentioned under risks in the proposals), but i way the benefit higher than the burden. maybe that's where we disagree...17:45
Theunibenji:  are you connected to the buildbot effort for zope?17:45
GaryPosterHe he: Theuni, benji is buildbot :-)17:45
philiKONbenji, exactly.17:45
benjiI "don't care" (not really, but let's use those words) about Z2, so makeing me do anything for it takes time away from me17:45
philiKONbenji, it has always been MHO that by using zope 3 inside zope 2, the zope 3 community took on a certain responsbility, at least as far as release maintenance was concerned17:46
philiKONwe did a terrible job on that17:46
philiKON*all* bugfixes should have always been backported to the X3.0 branch17:46
philiKONit's friggin' actively released software17:46
philiKONthe latest stable as far as zope 2 is concerned17:47
philiKONmy proposal is steering both of the zop ecommunities into the direction of awareness of this fact17:47
benjimy perspective is the reverse, Z2 "chose" to use Z3, so that's where the burdon rests, some (most?) in the Z3 community don't care about Z2 any more and will refuse any extra burden caused by it17:47
Theunigood. benji when you have some time for discussing buildbot for zodb, can you ping me?17:48
philiKONi think many zope 3 developers still care about zope 2, but that's just my impression. it's also not quite the point17:48
benjii'll agree that the ill-defined nature of bug fix porting hurt 3.0, I hope by synchronizing releases of Z2 and Z3 that will be handled better17:49
philiKONthis might seem harsh, but i exactly want to put zope 2 on those people's radar who are just concerned about zope 3 right now17:49
philiKONi *want* you to care about zope 2, if that's what you want to hear17:49
* philiKON is looking for the asbestus underwear ;)17:50
philiKONi still think that the burden will be considerably small, just as it is small by zwiki, z3checkins, buddydemo, etc....17:51
philiKONthe real deal will be geddons, and we only have those once every major release *wink*17:51
benjiI don't really see that the price/value ratio is good enough for me (or people like me to be supportive) <shrug>17:53
benjiperhaps the entire world will come together to support your proposal, we'll see :)17:53
philiKONyes :). and it's not that i don't exactly know what you're saying17:54
philiKONi guess we just value that "price/value ratio" you mention differently17:54
philiKONanyways, it's been an itch ever since i did the zope 2.9/3.2 integration and i just had to get it out as a proposal; i can deal with rejection, but i am the kinda guy to say "told you so" in one or two years ;)17:55
benjigood, so am I :)17:56
benjiTheuni, what about buildbot did you want to discuss?17:56
philiKONi have the feeling this is going to be fun17:56
GaryPosterFor us professionally, this is Jim/ZC's decision AFAIK, and I don't need to get involved.  That said, I'm really not sure how you can say the burden will be small, especially since you are the one who just did the Zope 2/Zope 3 merge.  It was heroic, and one of many amazing services you have performed for both the Zope 2 and Zope 3 communities.  It was also huge, by your admission.  I greatly appreciate your position, and your efforts and talent, phili17:56
philiKONwell, the reason it was so huge were others17:57
philiKONand it's not the actual itch17:57
philiKONthe itch was that i realized even small zope 3 refactorings could break zope 2/five17:57
philiKONand it just takes time off another guy]17:57
philiKONwhile the actual fix would've been quickly done by the one doing the refactoring in the first place17:57
philiKONso, maybe i underestimate the burden...17:58
philiKONi dunno, that's why i'm RFCing...17:59
GaryPoster"For us professionally": I meant Benji and me.17:59
philiKONyup got that ;)17:59
GaryPoster:-) Cool.  Well, fight the noble fight. :-)18:00
philiKON;)18:00
philiKONwell, good then. i'm going to bed *grin*18:00

Theunibenji:  i proposed to add buildbot tests for all the supported zodb versions. i would provide a windows and linux buildbot client.18:06

TheuniSteveA:  not exactly, although the design would imply so. I think they broke out to the left or so. At like 200 km/h.18:22
benjiTheuni, not sure what the "process definition" is18:22
SteveAi don't think lithuanian roads go that fast, relative to cars18:22

benjiTheuni, ours isn't that well engineered, it's all in master.cfg18:23

benjiis that a question, Theuni? or are you trying to create a space-time rift?18:26
Theunihmm?18:26
benjiwha?18:27
Theuni.oO(uh-oh there comes the rift)18:27
TheuniI lost your point of reference for "the question"18:27
TheuniI think i'm completely fine with you sending me the config as is ... I just found out that the harder part will be about doing sensible checkouts on the various events ...18:28
benjiok, I suppose it doesn't matter :)18:28
Theunioh ... i just remembered that i have to check for coming to pycon next year ...18:29
Theunii need to get those damn blobs out of the door18:29
benjidon't worry about reacting to checkins, I'll do that (eventually)18:29
Theuniok18:29
Theuniwell18:29
Theuninot that ok ... depending on the checkin i have to check for a different branch ...18:29
* Theuni scratches his head18:30
* Theuni has to look that up18:30
benjiwait untill you see the master.cfg, it does that for you, basically all you need to do is define a set of build steps18:31
*** dobee has quit IRC18:31
benjiit could use some re-working but the ideas it uses are at least on the right track18:31
Theunihmm. is the zope build working on multiple branches already?18:31
Theunii'll check that.18:32
benjiyep (multiple branches)18:32
TheuniHmm. is there a reason why the last test run only happened on a single client?18:33
benjiyep, that is Zope 2, and there is only one client running those tests18:34
benjiwell, fred-win is supposted to be, but it's having DNS issues18:35
Theuniright18:35
Theunii missed that18:35
Theunihmm18:35
