OK, it's been way too long since I've written an entry. It's also been too long since I got any real work done.
Here's some recap on what I've been up to:
1. Installed Debian on my home box. I've been using RH for the past 6 months but decided to try out Debian. I
like
the sense of the Debian community and a true *free* distro. Made a couple initial mistakes which set me back
over an hour. Got setup and let apt-get do its magic. With minimal plodding I've got the basic setup w/X and
dialup configured. Next to get other devices, sound, etc. And then finally plain-GNOME and Nautilus. Wonder if
Kitame has up-to-date Naut debs. Or I could build from CVS - hehe, who am I kidding?
2. I'll be flying east for the 16th-28th. Since I don't get my Vacation days until Sept. I've been spending most of
my
time at work making up the time in advance. Fun, fun, fun.
3. Might convince people to setup Bugzilla at work. We've got a clunky foxpro database setup now - the windows
client gui is pitiful and the 'apache-java-foxpro-magic' web interface is too slow. I'd like to implement bugzilla but
I'm not sure it'll be faster than our current setup. But I like Bugzilla a lot.
I haven't gotten anything done recently. Here's a TODO list. If I don't get these things done the appropriate
parties
are free to flame, banish, pelt tomatoes at, and generally boo/hiss at me for a long time.
1. Nautilus: bugzilla.eazel.com -> bugzilla.gnome.org transistion. Must give
gleblanc list of
prods/categories/versions so that he can (hopefully ;) create the same in b.g.o. Pass word onto Darin when done.
2. GDP: I volunteered to update the docs for logview w/screenshots et al a long time ago. Will do.
3. Nautilus: testing page content. Harvey/Jdub are working on the proposed Naut. community site. Have to
complete initial Naut. Testing content and forward to them. Rally the troops.
4. Nautilus: tinderbox has been stuck for a month now. Need to get those rpm builds cranking again - they're a
real convenience for people and facilitate testing.
5. Nautilus: test plans. Peter has been kind enough to forward gnome/naut-related test plans for Solaris to me.
Have to review and adapt for general testing. Add to N. Testing content. Begin setup discussions of web-based
test plan result reporting. Will be very nice when done.
Most of this won't be done until I get back. I'll try to get as much done as possible.
