No one has ever given me a technical reason. I thought you might have light
to shed; clearly not.

Please don't reply to my posts if you don't have any actual information to
add; I realise you like long fruitless mail 'discussions', and apparently
have lots of time for them, but I don't, and I don't enjoy reading them
either. This kind of one-liner with zero content, and no intent but to
insult, should simply be binned without sending imo.

[gentoo-dev] Bugzilla slowness

2008-10-18 Thread Robin H. Johnson
Hi folks,

Yes, Bugzilla has been slow lately. There's been a sudden surge in
spammers trying to fill out the web forms, and also somehow feeding
extremely heavy queries into MSN Live search, Googlebot and others.

I'm working on it, but please excuse the slowness in the meantime.

I think I have most of it solved, should take full effect after the big
bots reload their robots.txt in the next day or two.

If you run anything automated to access Bugzilla, you should read this

Okay, Steve, stop.  I don't think you realize it, but you are trolling
this list.  Every second post is you and Ciaran bitching at each other
or you complaining about every single thing we do that you
don't personally like.  We appreciate your input, but please respect our
right to do things the way we think is best for us, even if they aren't
aligned to your personal preferences.

All way too general and mean different things on different packages.

[gentoo-dev] [v4] Planning for automatic assignment computation of bugs

2008-10-18 Thread Robin H. Johnson
Now into it's Nth great year, I bring you the fourth edition of the
automatic assignment proposal. 

Previously:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.gentoo.devel/48485 [v1]
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.gentoo.devel/49601 [v2]
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.gentoo.devel/57159 [v3]

Bleeding edge prototype:
http://dev.gentoo.org/~rbu/assign.py
MANY thanks to rbu.

If there are no further changes or objections at this time, it would be
nice to implement this by the end of November.

How is it integrated into workflow?
===
(This was raised by halcy0n at the v3 review, and replaces the previous section
on triggering).
1. Bugs are still filed as normal, with the same default assignees
   (bug-wranglers most commonly).
2. In the wrangling process, we add a new button to the page, labelled:
   "Suggest assignment".
3. Optionally, the wrangler edits the summary line right now, but does not hit
   'Submit' yet.
4. The button causes a (javascript) query back to the server (also
   available as a web service for other usage). The only data sent is the
   'Summary' string.
5. Javascript then appends the server results into the "Additional
   Comments" box: a suggested assignee and suggested CC values, with logic
   as to why.
6. The wrangler can copy and paste the data into the fields, editing
   further as desired.

(Putting the data into the comments allows the assignment tool to
explain WHY it decided certain actions).

Assignment/CC computing:

Step 1 - Summary line processing

1. If the summary line contains a package atom for a package that
   exists, use the metadata.xml for that package.
2. If the summary line contains a package atom for a package that does
   not exist, but a category that does exist, use the metadata.xml for
   that category.
3. Process ALL atoms in the summary line, using any after the first for CC
   only. (new in v4)

Step 2 - Metadata.xml contains only a herd
--
1. Take the herd element, and look up the herd in herds.xml to convert
   to an email address. This email address must be a valid bugzilla
   account.
2. This email is treated as an implicit maintainer element after this
   point. "${HERD_EMAIL}"
[See notes]

Step 3 -  element
-
1. Add the maintainer element to an ordered list, in the order they are
   present in the file.
2. If an element appears more than once, the later element overrides the
   earlier element. (This provides a route when the herd is assigned,
   but does not wish to receive email for a specific package).
3. If a maintainer element contains the non-default 'ignoreauto=1' 
   attribute AND a non-empty role element (describing why this maintainer 
   should not be contacted), delete it from the list.

Step 4 - Assignment
---
1. Use the first email in the ordered list as the assignee.
2. Place all remaining emails in the CC list.
3. Include a short comment about the processing results.

Notes:
--
1. For handling no-herd, we should add an entry into herds.xml to
   catch it (maintainer-needed  g.o). Every herd listed in an ebuild MUST 
be in
   herds.xml.
2. Herds that do not wish to be contacted for specific bugs should add an
   maintainer element stating that (and use 'ignoreauto' on the element).
   This case however should be very rare, as the package probably doesn't
   belong in the herd if the herd doesn't care about it.
3. If you want the default assignment to go to a maintainer, and NOT the herd, 
   move the  element further down in the metadata.xml!

Effects on metadata.xml syntax
==
- Category metadata is now permitted to have herd and maintainer elements.
- New attribute under maintainer, 'ignoreauto'.
