Meeting 20110601

Development

• Joseph has been working on an access normalization path for mbox files. PST files are extracted to mbox format.
  • Found a tool that can be used: hypermail
• Jesús finished the preservation planning report.
• Jesús created the archival storage section which parses the static HTML file generated by storeAIP.py.
• Jesús made the status widget less eye-catching.
• Jesús updated upload-qubit.py so is easyer to debug when the upload fails.
• Jesús made small improvements in the Ingest table layout to be adapted when the browser screen is narrow.
• Jesús is working in the normalization report today.
• Austin updated the Archivematica ppa to get the latest Django version, 1.3.x
• Austin built a new readpst package, ended up using the binaries from the centOS x86 packages :/
  • this will suffice for testing, however Im leaving the bug open until I can build for myself.
• Austin did some post install package touch up for issue 532 and 331

Documentation

• Added new issue tracking statuses:
  • QA-Review = Issue is submitted to Quality Assurance for review/feedback/verification.
  • QA-Feedback = Quality Assurance has finished reviewing the issue, and has not deemed it closable.
  • Document = Issue is resolved, but wiki/documentation needs to be updated/created.

(10:47:16 AM) Joseph.p: Austin, I seem to recall you saying you saw some slowness in your testing on the 'Sanitize file and directory names' micro service, I'm currently seeing that. I created an issue for it for myself to look into.
(10:48:05 AM) Austin: yeah.. well on a sip with 1000 docs that needed to be sanatized(had spaces)  it just sat there for hours

(10:53:14 AM) Joseph.p: Ok... anyone have anything to add?
(10:54:02 AM) Sevein: mmmm Joseph.p, so when I want to close an issue, should I mark it as "QA-Review" or "Fixed"?
(10:54:28 AM) Joseph.p: If you know for sure it's fixed, it goes to fixed
(10:54:52 AM) Sevein: ok, I see

(10:55:46 AM) Sevein: thank you :)
(10:55:53 AM) Sevein: so we're done?ç
(10:56:21 AM) Joseph.p: sometimes you may code something, and not know if that's exactly what evelyn/peter wants. Give it a QA review.
(10:56:40 AM) Joseph.p: Austin, if you want us to test packages you've made, do it through QA review :)
(10:56:48 AM) Joseph.p: make sense?
(10:56:54 AM) Sevein: Joseph.p: yep, good idea.
(10:57:11 AM) Austin: yeah, ok sounds good
