Discussion was held publically in #mozdev
Discussed developer priorities
- testing apache 2.2/php 5 changes
- created project tagging policy/docs
- started update.rdf generation for secure updates
- started setting up test suite for mozdev.org code
- this week is planned to be: finish up the hg setup plan (in progress), start working on hg, and try to get some sysadmin time to close some bugs (apache 2.2 rewrite bugs, web-visible cache directory setup)
- asked about working on mercurial before svn; davidwboswell says an update to the roadmap is coming soon
Discussed sysadmin priorities
- apache 2.2 and php 5 upgrade is complete; working on ironing out some bugs
- https is being setup and tested
Firefox updates server load handling
- no updates
Staging server migration
- no news on VMs
- server move should be highest priority now that apache/php setup is done
Other projects
- if staging server setup drags on too long, sysadmin might move on to cvs perms with pam auth
- project creation automation would be a good item to work on as well
- openid would be a nice authentication mechanism for users; integrating this with other auth mechanisms isn't understood well right now
Code testing
- mostly just unit tests now that PHP 5 is avaialble (PHP 4 couldn't do mock objects which was very limiting)
- Doug will be writing some tests to verify certain web paths are working correctly
- not really focused on full integration testing or continuous integration right now (the entire web stack isn't in version control, so we can't know when changes are made)
