KermitTheFragger - (23/06/2008 11:14): hi xipe 
KermitTheFragger - (23/06/2008 11:15): i've added a little piece of text in the wiki describing my kerberos 'hack': http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Authentication
KermitTheFragger - (23/06/2008 11:15): I need to upload the jar with source  somewhere, should i attach it to the topic ?
KermitTheFragger - (23/06/2008 11:16): its really a simple hack of AppServerTrustedAuthServiceImpl , it just yanks off the @REALM after the principals name
vmassol - (23/06/2008 12:21): hi KermitTheFragger 
vmassol - (23/06/2008 12:21): is this code modification required to have http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Authentication working?
vmassol - (23/06/2008 12:22): (the kerberos SSO part)
vmassol - (23/06/2008 12:22): then the question is: should this be part of xwiki code base or not?
KermitTheFragger - (23/06/2008 12:22): hi vmassol !
vmassol - (23/06/2008 12:23): if the answer is yes the best is for you to create a jira issue and add both your patch + the documentation in the jira issue
KermitTheFragger - (23/06/2008 12:23): yes its required because mod_auth_kerb autheticates the user as [email protected]
vmassol - (23/06/2008 12:23): and we'll move it to xwiki.org when it's been released and working
KermitTheFragger - (23/06/2008 12:23): and we need to chop off the @REALM.COM part
vmassol - (23/06/2008 12:23): hmmm
KermitTheFragger - (23/06/2008 12:23): but other then that its the same as AppServerTrustedAuthServiceImpl
vmassol - (23/06/2008 12:24): this doesn't look generic so your patch should introduce a new AuthSerbiceImpl for Kerberos I think
vmassol - (23/06/2008 12:24): since I don't think we can modify AppServerTrusted* for this
vmassol - (23/06/2008 12:24): as otherwise it won't work in other cases right?
KermitTheFragger - (23/06/2008 12:24): true
KermitTheFragger - (23/06/2008 12:25): i called it: AppServerTrustedKerberosAuthServiceImpl
vmassol - (23/06/2008 12:25): in any case the best is to create a jira issue and put everything there
KermitTheFragger - (23/06/2008 12:25): ok
vmassol - (23/06/2008 12:25): could you also move the doc you've already put on xwiki.org there are rollback the version for the moment on xwiki.org?
vmassol - (23/06/2008 12:25): or you could keep the Kerberos part
vmassol - (23/06/2008 12:26): and point to the jira issue explaiing that it's pending being committed in the xwiki code base
KermitTheFragger - (23/06/2008 12:27): ok, ill create the jira issue and ill put a warning thing on the wiki doc with a link to jira
KermitTheFragger - (23/06/2008 12:28): nice job on xwiki btw, really great piece of work
KermitTheFragger - (23/06/2008 12:29): vmassol: welcome back :)
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 12:30): thanks
BC^bd - (23/06/2008 12:58): I have a problem with the finch skin:
BC^bd - (23/06/2008 12:58): [ERROR] VM #breadcrumb: error : too few arguments to macro. Wanted 3 got 2
BC^bd - (23/06/2008 12:58): [ERROR] VM error breadcrumb. Null AST
BC^bd - (23/06/2008 12:58): [ERROR] Left side ($!hidecolumns) of '==' operation has null value. If a reference, it may not be in the context. Operation not possible.  [line 6, column 21]
KermitTheFragger - (23/06/2008 13:16): vmassol_: i created an issue in Jira http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-2496 and put a warning banner on top of the documentation segment
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 13:21): KermitTheFragger: thanks.
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 14:50): jvdrean: what's the status for the 1.5M2 release?
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 14:50): or rather are you still ok for doing the release today (I hope so)
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 14:50): ?
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 14:50): I'd really like to see the new admin committed asap
jvdrean - (23/06/2008 14:51): actually it is commited
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 14:51): so that all devs can test it and give you feedback on bugs/problems
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 14:51): really?
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 14:51): I missed the commit then
jvdrean - (23/06/2008 14:51): I've commited it yesterday at 11:30pm
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 14:52): ok then maybe you could send an email on the devs list asking for quick feedback before such hour at which you'll start the 1.5M2 release
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 14:52): ?
jvdrean - (23/06/2008 14:52): I think I've encountered a blocker this morning
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 14:52): jvdrean: what rev was it?
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 14:53): I don't see any email about it
jvdrean - (23/06/2008 14:53): vmassol_: 10574
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 14:53): yes there was no email about it
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 14:54): maybe it was just too big?
jvdrean - (23/06/2008 14:54): I've received the email
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 14:55): has anyone else received it?
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 14:55): jvelociter: have you?
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 14:55): thomasmortagne: have you?
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 14:55): in any case an email giving the release time for today would be great jvdrean and asking for testing before a given time would be great too
jvelociter - (23/06/2008 14:55): vmassol_: I did
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 14:55): hmmm
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 14:55): weird
jvdrean - (23/06/2008 14:56): Thomas reviewed it this morning, he raised some issues I'm fixing right now
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 14:57): yes I can see it here: http://xwiki.markmail.org/search/?q=10574#query:10574+page:1+mid:4vf22xkjsur42jih+state:results
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 14:57): strange I didn't get it
jvdrean - (23/06/2008 14:58): I think Sergiu tried it last night but I haven't received comments from him
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 14:59): buildingnow
thomasmortagne - (23/06/2008 14:59): vmassol_: yes I received it
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 14:59): I'm the only one who haven't received it....
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 15:00): maybe it went to my spam folder on gmail and I deleted it by mistake, this is strange as I've reviewed my spam yesterday... anyway...
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 16:31): jvelociter: 1.5M2 should have alreayd been released last friday
jvelociter - (23/06/2008 16:32): vmassol_: jvdrean thomasmortagne I was about to ask for your opinion
jvdrean - (23/06/2008 16:32): I've just finished my second round of tests on the new admin
jvdrean - (23/06/2008 16:33): (including ie6)
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 16:33): and ie7?
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 16:33): rebuilding now to try the latest changes...
jvelociter - (23/06/2008 16:33): vmassol_: I can have it commited tonight, not before
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 16:33): jvelociter: committed is not the issue
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 16:33): tested and working is the issue
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 16:33): :)
jvelociter - (23/06/2008 16:33): & tested :)
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 16:34): tonight is fine I think
jvelociter - (23/06/2008 16:34): as I said, Marius included unit tests
jvelociter - (23/06/2008 16:34): (that does not mean I won't test myself)
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 16:34): unit test are good but they don't prove that it works
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 16:34): (you need functional tests for that)
jvdrean - (23/06/2008 16:35): I still have one issue with ie7
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 16:35): jvelociter: is it used anywhere in XE?
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 16:35): (I'm assessing the regression risks)
jvelociter - (23/06/2008 16:36): vmassol_: not yet, the plan is to use it, but this can be done later
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 16:36): ok then risks are quite low
jvelociter - (23/06/2008 16:36): it's only introducing the API
jvelociter - (23/06/2008 16:36): yes
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 16:37): jvdrean is the release manager so we need his go ahead for delaying by one more day
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 16:37): but I'd really like that we don't delay more
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 16:37): we haven't successfully delivered a release on time for a very long time now... :(
jvdrean - (23/06/2008 16:43): I'd like to test on last thing before sending the email about the 1.5M2 release
jvdrean - (23/06/2008 16:44): btw it's too late to release it today so Jerome go ahead with the RSS patch
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 16:48): jvdrean: the cancel button doesn't do anything but I'm sure you're aware of that... I think it should be removed altogether... wdyt?
jvdrean - (23/06/2008 16:48): yes it's a known issue (mentionned in my first commit IIRW)
jvdrean - (23/06/2008 16:48): yes I can remove the button
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 16:49): Save & Continue isn't correct either
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 16:49): should be just Save probably
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 16:50): btw I really have a hard time navigating back to the list of admin categories
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 16:55): jvdrean: I still have Links and blog categories inside
jvdrean - (23/06/2008 16:55): "Blog categories" is on purpose
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 16:57): I think it should be Blog but let's leave this one like this for now
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 16:57): I was talking about the one labelled "Links"
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 16:57): you said it's been reverted to Photo Album but it's not here
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 16:57): also it contains blog categories inside
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 16:58): by the way in English you put Capital letters everywhere in titles
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 16:58): so it's Space Preferences instead of Space preferences
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 16:58): and Blog Categories instead of Blog categories
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 16:58): but that's a detail...
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 16:58): an easy to fix detail though ;)
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 17:02): actually it's not fully clear in English if they should be capitalized or not. I think they are in most cases but I'm pretty sure you can examples where they're not. What's important is that we're consistent throughout our site
jvdrean - (23/06/2008 17:02): idea tells me that Photos/Links is not even in our repo :/
jvdrean - (23/06/2008 17:02): vmassol_: I was searching for sources ;)
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 17:02): sources of?
jvdrean - (23/06/2008 17:02): capitalization in titles
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 17:03): http://www.google.fr/url?sa=t&ct=res&cd=1&url=http%3A%2F%2Fen.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2FCapitalization&ei=IbtfSPDRCo7y7AWusuDaCQ&usg=AFQjCNH0i6k1rRXjuJaWnWU0pcJKottShw&sig2=K740Z0PHWYW7Hj49dkbVnw
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 17:03): oops
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 17:03): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capitalization
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 17:03): but don't spend time on this
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 17:03): we can fix this later in RC I think
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 17:03): however I've rebuilt everything and I still have the Links icon
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 17:03): so you're saying it's supposed to be removed?
jvdrean - (23/06/2008 17:06): no it's not
asyd - (23/06/2008 17:16): If I want to write a macro which interacts with external data (like http or webservices request), I guess I need to use java or groovy?
jvdrean - (23/06/2008 17:19): depends on the complexity of what you want to achieve
jvdrean - (23/06/2008 17:20): you can do simple stuff with velocity and $xwiki.getURLContent("http://url")
asyd - (23/06/2008 17:20): ah hmm interesting
asyd - (23/06/2008 17:20): well I want to write some macro to interacts with a bugzilla
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 17:22): asyd: best is to write a java plugin for this
asyd - (23/06/2008 17:22): ok
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 17:22): same as what we did for jira
asyd - (23/06/2008 17:23): ok, I'll take a look. thanks
daning - (23/06/2008 18:23): hi, vmassol.
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 18:24): daning: hi
daning - (23/06/2008 18:24): vmassol_: have have post a mail to maillist. 
daning - (23/06/2008 18:24): vmassol_: s/have/I/
daning - (23/06/2008 18:24): vmassol_: Any suggestion?
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 18:30): daning: just answered on the list
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 18:30): I haven't tried building and running your code yet. I'm putting that on my todo list.
daning - (23/06/2008 18:32): vmassol_: I have a question. Do we need to retain the <html> and <body> tags of the conversion html?
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 18:33): daning: I don't understand
daning - (23/06/2008 18:33): sorry
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 18:33): what we want to have is wiki syntax
daning - (23/06/2008 18:33): I mean <html> and <head>
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 18:33): but <html> and <head> are not wiki syntax
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 18:33): which is why I don't understand the question
daning - (23/06/2008 18:34): content of <head> contain some <style> and <metadata> tags.
daning - (23/06/2008 18:35): should we just remove the whole <head> or handle the <style> and <metadata> of <head>?
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 18:35): this need to be converetd
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 18:35): I think you should have a look at the Skin extension
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 18:35): and especially the CSS and JS extensions
daning - (23/06/2008 18:35): OK. I'll.
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 18:35): let me get the url for you
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 18:36): daning: here: http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Design/SkinExtensions
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 18:36): these are implemented in xwiki as plugins so you can find them in the plugins area
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 18:37): I think we could maybe use this when converting an office doc
daning - (23/06/2008 18:37): vmassol_: another question. Can you give me the svn url of rendering module which contain the XHTML parser?
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 18:37): it's in xwiki-platform-core/xwiki-rendering/
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 18:37): the class is WikiModelXHTMLParser
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 18:38): it's in the wikimodel submodule
daning - (23/06/2008 18:38): vmassol_: OK.
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 18:39): daning: read this: http://xwiki.markmail.org/search/?q=rendering+lookup&x=0&y=0#query:rendering%20lookup+page:1+mid:mkbijcginsssabfs+state:results
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 18:39): there's a code example
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 18:39): instead of "xwiki/2.0" it's "xhtml/1.0"
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 18:40): you don't need the transformations
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 18:40): and instead of the XHTML renderer you should use the XWikiSyntaxRenderer
daning - (23/06/2008 18:43): My next job is read  Skin extension to clean html. and read xhtmlparser to convert xwiki syntax. WDYT?
daning - (23/06/2008 18:43): What do you think about pictures in documents?
daning - (23/06/2008 18:44): I want to upload pictures to the page as attachments. WDYT?
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 19:01): yes uploading the pictures sound good
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 19:01): (daning)
SaiKrishna - (23/06/2008 19:06): Hi David 
xwikibot - (23/06/2008 19:06): FAQ.SpaceAdmins was modified by XWiki.MikhaelSantos - http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/FAQ/SpaceAdmins
daning - (23/06/2008 19:07): vmassol_: I have to go sleep. It's late in my region. Bye.
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 19:07): daning: oj bye
vmassol_ - (23/06/2008 19:07): s/oj/ok
xwikibot - (23/06/2008 19:07): FAQ.SpaceAdmins was modified by XWiki.MikhaelSantos - http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/FAQ/SpaceAdmins
dward - (23/06/2008 19:13): SaiKrishna: Hello.
SaiKrishna - (23/06/2008 19:14): Hi David 
dward - (23/06/2008 19:14): Hello.
SaiKrishna - (23/06/2008 19:14): David : Just wanted to report my status
SaiKrishna - (23/06/2008 19:15): David : I am able to search multiple indexes on multiple machines, quite successfully :). I have also started integrating it into actuall XWiki Source code.
dward - (23/06/2008 19:15): Great!
SaiKrishna - (23/06/2008 19:15): David : probably will come up with some version by the end of this week
dward - (23/06/2008 19:15): I look forward to it.
SaiKrishna - (23/06/2008 19:16): As informed earlier I am using RemoteSearchable class in lucene to acheive this.
SaiKrishna - (23/06/2008 19:18): Each machine (slaves) makes its index available to the master machine on some port.
SaiKrishna - (23/06/2008 19:19): And Master Node searches all those remote indexes parallelly 
dward - (23/06/2008 19:19): Sounds good.
SaiKrishna - (23/06/2008 19:20): all configuration related should be set in xwiki.cfg -- right ?? like which port to run on, whether the particular machine is slave or master, such info..
dward - (23/06/2008 19:21): Yes.
SaiKrishna - (23/06/2008 19:21): ok
SaiKrishna - (23/06/2008 19:24): Right now I planning a design to intergate remote search to the existing xwiki lucene plugin. Once the desinging is done, it should be the matter of days to integrate in into XWiki, since most of the background has been done.
dward - (23/06/2008 19:25): Okay.
SaiKrishna - (23/06/2008 19:26): I will mail the design to you and dev list tomorrow, hope I will get some feedback :)
dward - (23/06/2008 19:26): I'll watch for it.
SaiKrishna - (23/06/2008 19:26): ok 
dward - (23/06/2008 19:28): You might want to update http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Design/DistributedXWikiSearchEngine as well.
SaiKrishna - (23/06/2008 19:31): yeah I will
dward - (23/06/2008 19:31): Thanks.
SaiKrishna - (23/06/2008 19:31): :)
