• Full Stack Build: 9/24 - 10/5

last modified October 5, 2007 by k0s

High Priority
-------------

* dependencies page: right now, opencore (for instance) can only be pulled down from trunk. This is because the dependencies page lives in the wiki and is not edittable on a per-build basis.
[more complicated than it initially looked]

As a preliminary step to solve this problem, I'm advocating moving the dependencies page to the build (namely, to somewhere in topp.build.lib) and providing the infrastructure to allow people to override this page with their own links.

More front-endy stuff can and should be done in the future. [see email]

* requirements files: need to decide what to do with these. And do it.
[coupled with restructure to use virtualenv -- partially done]

* get the full stack build end-user ready. Ideally anyone in the room should be able to build a full stack. Since I can't for lack of understanding of deliverance, I assume others can't as well. I should read more about deliverance [um, up to a day] and then Ian, Luke, and I (and anyone else interested) should decide how this gets set up in the build. This is reported on in ticket #1382. [consensus required]

[DONE] * fix critical build tickets: outside of the dep page one, there is only the zope location within the build. While this should be simple, if I remember correctly, there may be cruft around that needs to be reexamined in light of how to do this. That's why I'll give it [.75 day]

[DONE] * build presentation


Lesser Priority
---------------

* close out some important build-related tickets. #392, #1379, [DONE] #401 are especially important.

[DONE] * get t.b.o to release point. There are some tickets associated with this.

* i'd love to get externalator ready to release, but that's probably for another iteration

* there are some opencore tickets left to me. I should probably do at least #1097 and #1077 at some point. The others probably others could do, unless they have higher priorities, in which case I could do them given the time allocation.

* um, #802 is probably important at some point.
