Win7Mac | ahoy! | 22:02 |
---|---|---|
reinob | hi there! | 22:05 |
Win7Mac | hi reinob! | 22:06 |
Win7Mac | Huge thanks again for updating m.o. legal pages | 22:06 |
reinob | no problem! | 22:07 |
Win7Mac | so you got full access to all systems? | 22:08 |
reinob | on maemo.org I can apparently edit/create any page. didn't experiment too much, but at least you can edit (raw) html pages/chunks | 22:09 |
reinob | (would have preferred using vi over ssh, but such is life..) | 22:09 |
Win7Mac | ok | 22:10 |
reinob | what I didn't get around to doing was the preparation for the referendum and/or council election | 22:10 |
reinob | I may have an hour or two tomorrow afternoon, so not all hope is lost | 22:10 |
reinob | :) | 22:10 |
Win7Mac | juiceme and Woody should be able to help + explain | 22:11 |
Win7Mac | emphasis on should ;) | 22:12 |
reinob | I've inspected the database already, so in theory I should be able to do this, but I just have to sit down and prepare the SQL statements and then have juiceme look over it and check if something is wrong | 22:12 |
reinob | my SQL is pretty rusty, but for this it should be OK.. | 22:12 |
Win7Mac | Hm, we're alone desspite my email reminder :( | 22:18 |
Win7Mac | juiceme, reinob, please check for possibility to add the date of elections to the result page! | 22:21 |
Win7Mac | like http://maemo.org/vote/results.php?election_id=40 | 22:21 |
Win7Mac | I always find it troublesome to find the right date for elections | 22:22 |
Win7Mac | looking it up on tmo right now... | 22:22 |
reinob | I'll check about the election results page. Probably requires editing whatever script generates the page, but I'll see if I can figure it out | 22:24 |
Win7Mac | please do | 22:25 |
Win7Mac | According to http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=95812 next election should be may-12-2016 | 22:26 |
Win7Mac | We need to announce at least 4 weeks ahead | 22:27 |
reinob | Thanks for checking the date. I'll set a reminder (just in case..) | 22:28 |
reinob | OK it should be /usr/local/src/maemo2midgard/maemo-elections/vote/results.php | 22:30 |
reinob | (just thinking "aloud" to then check in the IRC log) | 22:30 |
Win7Mac | unfortunately I'm no help in such technicalities :( | 22:32 |
reinob | no problem :) | 22:33 |
reinob | The "voting_start" and "voting_end" are even fetched from the db, so it should be trivial to add a line displaying them | 22:34 |
Win7Mac | no shortcut to "timestamp"? | 22:35 |
Win7Mac | reinob, updated http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=96192 | 22:37 |
reinob | thx! | 22:39 |
Win7Mac | no problem! | 22:40 |
reinob | I've created a patch for the results.php script. Should work w/o testing (trivial), but I don't know if there's a way to test it on a "fake" election. Probably too complicated so I'll just get a second opinion from juiceme and declare it as mathematically bug free. Should be OK.. :) | 22:44 |
Win7Mac | if you say so... ;) | 22:45 |
reinob | juiceme? are you there?! | 22:46 |
Win7Mac | thanks for that mail! | 22:58 |
reinob | gerne :) | 22:59 |
juiceme | hiya! | 23:07 |
juiceme | Sorry I was a bit late today... | 23:07 |
Win7Mac | hi! | 23:07 |
juiceme | I am on holiday nw and visiting my parents in middle-of-finland | 23:07 |
reinob | hey! | 23:07 |
reinob | then you shouldn't bother with us :) | 23:08 |
reinob | peterleinchen is also excused | 23:08 |
reinob | from HtheB I haven't heard/seen in a while | 23:08 |
juiceme | They have had some IT problems and I was solving those, my father has a new printer that needed to be connected to all computers etc... | 23:08 |
juiceme | HtheB has not been in few latest meetings IIRC | 23:09 |
reinob | juiceme: I meant, you may want to spend time with them instead of with us :) | 23:11 |
juiceme | reinob regarding the voting engine, not that much SQL is needed, just the midgard users import and checking if the data contains uld-users that have requested to be removed and if so, purge those from the tables.... | 23:11 |
juiceme | (actually that SHOULD not happen as I think when admins have marked people as expired they should stay that way...) | 23:12 |
Win7Mac | uh, that still needs to be done manually? | 23:12 |
juiceme | needs to be checked every thime | 23:13 |
juiceme | but otherwice the engine woorks well with the web interface | 23:13 |
Win7Mac | ugly | 23:13 |
juiceme | Win7Mac true | 23:13 |
Win7Mac | can't those users be removed from DB? | 23:14 |
Win7Mac | or ecluded? | 23:14 |
Win7Mac | *excluded | 23:14 |
* Win7Mac is stabbin in the dark... | 23:15 | |
juiceme | yes, there is some field that says that the entries should not be included but they still pop up :( | 23:15 |
Win7Mac | :( | 23:15 |
juiceme | I think checking/tweaking the import script would be needed | 23:15 |
Win7Mac | or try to trick system by deleting email-adress? | 23:16 |
Win7Mac | for those users | 23:16 |
Win7Mac | or by deleting karma or whatever | 23:17 |
juiceme | well, if the entry still gets to the voters table with empty email address it could wreck some havoc :) | 23:18 |
Win7Mac | as i believe user itself can't be deleted completely? | 23:18 |
juiceme | not from the midgard table, no | 23:18 |
juiceme | I think it had something to do with messing up a lot of things in all discussions and so where the said user has taken part | 23:19 |
reinob | I'll see if I can have a look at checking/tweaking that script | 23:19 |
Win7Mac | then my best guess is: try to trick the system if it can't be fixed as desired | 23:19 |
Win7Mac | doing it manually each time might do it for now, but we want to keep it as easy as possible I guess | 23:22 |
reinob | I'll see how far I get, but now I have to leave | 23:30 |
reinob | good night guys | 23:30 |
Win7Mac | thanks again + gnite reinob | 23:31 |
Win7Mac | bye o/ | 23:58 |
