With template of a simple case and a case with form inside. 22:32:40 #info ashimema has started a draft of the style guide (https://annuel.framapad.org/p/koha-styleguide-draft), oleonard will probably be focusing on template fixes until the release 22:33:22 #info khall offered to restore progress bars if people file bugs depending on bug 31666 for that 22:33:22 04Bug https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=31666 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, kyle, Pushed to master , Add job progress bar to stage-marc-import.pl 22:33:44 That's all the action points unless anyone else has anything to add for all of the above! 22:34:32 #topic General development discussion 22:35:42 Has anyone got any updates or things to share on what is happening at the moment - I'll defer the git-bz discussion until the next meeting 22:36:15 Not really I suppose. 22:36:38 Juggling a number of things at the moment. Focused on security things a bit. 22:36:42 A lot of work going into fixes and refinements for the staff interface change - hopefully it will be nicely polished by release time! 22:37:40 I might send an email to the development list about the git-bz topic and alternatives - that way there may be some things to consider 22:38:33 tcohen has been pushing all the bugs - currently down to 14 passed QA! 22:39:37 the QA Team have been doing a great job as well - trying to keep things under control 22:40:40 lukeg: do you have an release maintainer updates? 22:42:15 22.05.06 was released yesterday 22:42:32 Things seem to be moving along without issue 22:42:48 excellent! 22:42:49 darn tootin' it is. 22:43:24 I think all the other supported versions have had their releases as well 22:43:37 #topic Review of coding guidelines 22:44:52 I think I will defer SQL8 item, unless anyone wants to say anything about it 22:45:47 #info Agenda item about SQL8 coding guideline deferred until the next meeting 22:46:21 Anything else anyone would like to raise before we set the time for the next meeting? 22:47:36 Oh yes 22:48:34 When using the new MediaWiki VisualEditor, it is best to save any changes before switching to the source code editor or vice a versa. 22:49:21 Switching between the two editing modes without first saving changes might sometimes create a problem even it is just extra white space. 22:50:03 #info When using the new MediaWiki VisualEditor, it is best to save any changes before switching to the source code editor or vice a versa 22:50:54 I like the visual editor - I use it when occasionally editing Wikipedia - it generally works very well 22:51:06 I have not seen a problem. Most reported problems from Wikipedia seem to be users switching without realising that they are no longer in the VisualEditor and not knowing what to do. 22:51:50 thd: I'm assuming that if anyone finds any issues they should add then to the bug or reply to your message on the list? 22:51:57 Users accidentally ending in source code mode may have broken templates unintentionally on some Wikipedia pages. 22:52:15 Bugs are best in bugzilla. 22:52:30 Bugs are legion :) 22:52:33 I've not heard of anyone in the New Zealand Wikipedia community having any issues with the VisualEditor, so fingers crossed! 22:53:16 #info Please log any Wiki upgrade issues in Bugzilla 22:53:31 #topic Set time of next meeting 22:53:42 VisualEditor is not necessarily the problem but confused user and as with any WYSIWIG imperfect code correspondence. 22:53:46 The time of the next meeting was set at the last meeting, so... 22:53:53 #info Next meeting: 9 November 2022, 15:00 UTC 22:55:23 For the one after that for the Oceania/Americas time slot on 26 October is 22:00 UTC OK? (Same time as this one) 22:55:31 Or would you like it earlier or later? 22:56:22 Or the same? 22:57:17 Poor attendance may be an especially busy time for many. 22:58:03 We'll leave it the same - otherwise, raise on the development mailing list to propose a new time 22:58:09 tcohen might have been here later but not earlier for him. This is commute time for Eastern US. 22:58:33 The same time will be an hour earlier next time in the US. 22:58:59 Daylight savings ends in Europe (mostly) this weekend, so will be an hour earlier next time for them 22:59:20 thd: that may mean more attendees, so yeah! 22:59:37 #endmeeting
