Saturday 2008-08-16
  • Dave
    • Yesterday: (I'm cheating to report progress here before I go on holiday) Published and announced list of eligible voters in Task:Community_Council/Eligible_voters. Published scripts I used to extract eligible voters from list, and also some interesting karma stats (over 80% of maemo users have under 5 karma points). Populated a mysql database with the electorate, got all of the details of the GNOME election process, and published scripts, database schema and web app. Passed off deploying it to Henri, but it should be pretty much done - need only a host with a working local MTA to send voting tokens, and a web server with PHP enabled to host voting application. Also need to maemo theme the 3 web pages involved.
    • Until 2008-08-31: On holiday.
Friday 2008-08-15
  • Dave
    • Yesterday: Got list of accounts, resolved some karma issues, published final list of eligible candidates, pushed forward the council elections, announced profile changes and community council elections.
    • Today: Test-run & deploy election software, publish list of eligible voters, go on holiday.
Thursday 2008-08-14
  • Dave
    • Yesterday: Pushed Community council elections, generate list of elligible candidates. Not helped by flaky maemo.org. Got voting software.
    • Today: Get list of maemo.org accounts + creation date. Publish list of elligible voters. Get voting software working. Try to get accurate karma counts for eligible candidate list. I have a couple of articles to write too. Announce profile updates and council elections.

Problems: Karma has been a problematic measure - some obvious people did not meet the karma requirement. Propose dropping karma requirement for voting for this first election, but bringing it back for future elections when karma is improved.

  • Andre
    • Add Bugzilla version and Target Milestone "4.1.1" for 4.2008.30-2 and set fixed bugs correctly, work on Task:Getting_Nokia_involved_in_bugs.maemo.org
    • Tuesday: bugmail followup, Internal report, work on Task:Getting_Nokia_involved_in_bugs.maemo.org, prepare and have 100Days/Sprint4 meeting
  • Bergie
    • Tracked site slowness and crashes, and missed user imports, karma recounts and social news updates to ISP's watchdog script that had gone out of control. Fixed the situation with Ferenc.
    • Generated favicon.ico for the new logo and deployed it in Midgard style
Wednesday 2008-08-13
  • Dave
    • Yesterday: Prepare & attend Sprint meeting
    • Today: Push community council election, get election software, nail down election rules, and announce the election. Announce updates to profile lists and ask people to update profiles.
