21:15:31 Joubu: I think it would be your call on how best to word the -m flag..I'll admit I'm somewhat confused how it should be updated 21:15:43 News from kohagit: Bug 20123: (follow-up) Mock timezone in t/Auth_with_shibboleth.t 21:16:04 LeeJ: let's talk about it on the bug report later ;) 21:16:08 I want to thank barton for providing that bug..we can use it as training :) 21:16:11 Joubu: sounds good 21:16:28 I digress 21:17:11 #info LeeJ will update the Editing the Manual wiki page with a standardized workflow for handling documentation/documentation bugs 21:18:11 #info Joubu is still in need of feedback on Bug 19817 21:18:11 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=19817 new feature, P5 - low, ---, jonathan.druart, Needs Signoff , Merge local and online documentations 21:18:54 anything to add from anyone before the next topic?

21:21:14 excellent idea! 21:21:31 :) 21:21:40 if you pick a day after 20th i will try to join 21:21:58 it would be before the 18,05 release? 21:22:18 Joubu: I'll bang out the details of that when I get home from work because I needed to pick your brain on that very topic 21:22:21 caroline: yes :) 21:22:46 the goal of the sprint day is to catch the documentation up to the current status of the 18.05 code base 21:23:04 dotting our i's and crossing our t's so to speak 21:23:51 I guess it should be in Taiga, I can go through and add all the bugs from Bugzilla for 18.05 commits 21:24:14 +1 21:24:15 davidnind++ 21:24:16 davidnind that would be a big help 21:24:19 davidnind++ 21:24:23 then we can make sure the release notes are covered off for each item 21:24:32 will start on this this evening 21:24:33 davidnind: i think there are some preliminary release notes you could use as base 21:24:34 I like the way you think :) 21:25:01 Joubu: does the page still exist? 21:25:19 since the beginning of the release cycle, yes 21:25:20 #info Barton Chittenden, BWS 21:25:22 release notse? 21:25:25 release notes? 21:25:25 release notes are in misc/release_notes 21:25:25 they are always a good starting point, will probably need some tweaking to reflect how people use Koha 21:25:29 :O 21:25:33 (better late than never) 21:25:38 release notes is https://gitlab.com/koha-community/koha-release-notes/blob/master/release_notes_17_12_00.md 21:25:53 Joubu: lost the link :( 21:26:14 the new features and enhancements will probably require the most work :) 21:26:26 agreed davidnind 21:26:28 release notes is https://gitlab.com/joubu/koha-release-notes/blob/master/release_notes_17_12_00.md 21:26:48 they're the most useful, they should be priority 21:26:49 (I have forced pushed and it seems it has not been synced) 21:27:04 although sometimes bug fixes can take up time as you try and work out what the problem is..was... 21:27:07 Joubu++ # for the link 21:27:46 davidnind: I'll hop on IRC when I'm home later and see how much we can get done 21:28:22 home time for me will be in about 8-9 hours 21:28:31 #info LeeJ will be working with davidnind to update kohadocs with new 18.05 features 21:28:45 davidnind: ahh right. timezones :) 21:29:22 I should probably do some work while I'm a work today 21:29:26 anyway..I'll hammer out those details with you later davidnind 21:29:31 ;-) 21:29:49 anyone else have anything to add? anything I missed? 21:29:51 a.. should be at! 21:30:35 i've added something about moving interesting things from the help files to th emanual 21:30:43 reconciling them before the help files get removed 21:30:54 but as git has it all, that is not as urgent as the new things i think 21:31:54 #idea cait mentioned moving interesting things from help files to the manual 21:32:44 I guess it comes down to priorities in the time available to 18.05 - release notes, new features and enhancements documented, manual brought as up-to-date as possible (with sprint day) 21:32:52 I like that idea. 21:33:14 cait always has excellent ideas! 21:33:24 hear hear! :) 21:33:28 davidnind: I think the order should be new features then release notes..minor but still :) 21:33:31 cait1++ 21:33:59 #info kohadocs updates will be handled with the priority of new features, release notes, enhancements, etc. 21:34:13 that's fine too... better to have a plan than no plan at all 21:34:24 well if no one has anything else, let's figure next meeting time 21:35:08 Joubu: is the 18.05 release around May 28th? 21:35:18 May 22th 21:35:18 22 21:35:22 ah ok 21:35:45 so then how about next meeting same day same time next month? 21:36:10 It will be a Friday 21:36:15 oh dear 21:36:18 hmm 21:36:32 May 9th then? 21:36:58 will be a dev meeting 21:37:13 but before, like today actually 21:37:21 so that's fine 21:37:22 may 9 works for me 21:37:36 so it'll be 14 UTC for dev?
