Bug triage/2007-07-09

Next meeting: 2007-07-09. See Bug triage for details.

Fast Track Import

(Move bugs here that have solid repros, or valid patches that you have reviewed)

• VWR-1400 - Votes: 12 - Inventory's Recent Items tab settings should persist across logins - Be Holder

Looks clean for re-importation. Gigs Taggart

• VWR-434 - Votes: 33 - HUD textures are attaching but not being seen - Owner Maltese

I have confirmed the repro that is posted in the final comment on this bug. This is seriously screwed up. Gigs Taggart 00:59, 9 July 2007 (PDT)

Critical, needs immediate attention

• VWR-1610 - Crash on startup due to SSE instructions - Angus Boyd

I think this guy knows what he's talking about (saying he verified it in the debugger). This needs to be fixed for 1.18 (NB)

Hot by Vote

• MISC-378 - Votes: 42 - Linked Media on land (audio stream & video stream) can be viewable to anyone with "View Admin Options" on. Media Links in parcels should be PRIVATE ALWAYS. - Doubledown Tandino

Recommend WONTFIX, DRM/Copybot type issue. No way to protect this. VWR-1059 is similar, was closed by LL on the same grounds that it would require some kind of DRM arms-race, or only be an illusion of security. Gigs Taggart

I agree with "wontfix". (NB)

• SVC-273 - Votes: 11 - Items sold at vendors are sometimes ending up full permissions - Angel Lamar

This must be very rare if it is happening. I IM Stroker to see what he means by having "Seen it first hand" Gigs Taggart 00:19, 9 July 2007 (PDT)

Pre-meeting activity

Resolved... again... people keep opening this up whenever they have a slow region due to load.

Community members generally collaborate on the agenda for bug triage meetings. Here's how you can quickly fill in an otherwise blank agenda:

Setting up

• Go to Bug_Triage/YYYY-MM-DD where YYYY is the four digit year code, MM is the two digit month code, and DD is the day code
• Write and save {{subst:Triage Template}} as the only content of your new page. This will copy the complete markup from Template:Triage Template as a starting point for your agenda.
• Fill in the relevant time, date, and location info for the upcoming meeting. The easiest way to do this is to copy the entire block of information from an earlier meeting of the same type (RC, regular, etc...) and modify the date and time as needed.

Populating the issue listings section(s)

• Look at the results of one of these queries
  • General triage: "Viewer 2 Bug Triage" (sorted by LL ID, Created, Last Triaged):
    • https://jira.secondlife.com/secure/IssueNavigator.jspa?mode=hide&requestId=12724
  • UI triage:
    • https://jira.secondlife.com/secure/IssueNavigator.jspa?mode=hide&requestId=10470 (The selected filter with id '10470' does not exist.)

  (Note: there's no hard and fast rule that says these are the only valid queries. If you feel there's a better query one particular week, use that.)

• Save a copy of the XML version of the query
• Run this perl script on the xml file

<perl>

1. !/usr/bin/env perl

use XML::Simple;

my $bugs = XMLin($ARGV[0]);

foreach my $item (@{$bugs->{channel}->{item}}) {

 $title = $item->{title};
 $title =~ s/^\^\*\] //;
 $key = $item->{key}->{content};
 $votes = $item->{votes};
 $reporter = $item->{reporter}->{username};
 print "* $key - Votes: $votes - $title - $reporter\n";

}

</perl>

• Pick a reasonable cutoff point, and copy the output into the appropriate section of your newly created page.

• if you do not have access to a perl interpreter. There is a ported version of the script on PHP, located here: http://jirafiller.technokittydevelopment.com/ made by roberto salubrius
