Greetings. I thought I would write up an email where we stand with ask.fedoraproject.org and things we need to get done and things I would like to see. ;) Staging: - Thanks to anshprat and echevemaster we got a askbot-0.7.49 rpm put together. - We got our old staging all working with it. - However, being the paranoid sort and seeing that we had a bunch of people poking at it locally and doing all kinds of things to it, I decided to do a clean staging instance to make sure it would work as expected. - I migrated ask01.stg over to ansible and destroyed the old instance and made a new one with 0.7.49 and the config/etc we had in puppet. - I had to tweak some more things to get it up and going. - It's now up, but it tracebacks in trying to add new questions (at least). - I didn't do anything to the database, it's the same one we were using for staging before. So, what we need here is to figure out whats wrong with it now and get it working, or possibly wipe the db and put the production one over there (downside there is that it might send emails, which would confuse users, so we need to make sure that doesn't happen if we go that route). Once we have it all working. I will wipe and make a fresh instance of it. I want it to come up working from whats in ansible before we touch production. Production / misc: - feedback link is broken, so people send feedback to admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx. This is not great as I don't have time/know about specific things some people ask.. Where should we point these? sysadmin-ask-members@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx? - I have no idea who all is still active in wanting to work on askbot. We should figure that out. Perhaps we could cull the sysadmin-ask group down to those people who are still around and are willing to work on it? - Fedora theme: Ryan was working on that a whlile back. It would sure be nice to get something out there, even if it's not perfect. - It would also be nice to have some way to communicate/collaborate with moderators/admins. Sometimes people ask for karma changes or voting changes or whatever, and it would be nice to have a place to discuss that. I guess meta on the site itself might work, but we should decide. - multilang support. The new 0.7.49 has multilang support, but it wasn't working last we tried it. We should really try and get this working. There are already communities with their own ask instances that could be using the main Fedora one. ;) - The rawhide/Fedora version is still on 0.7.48. There's at least one issue with python-celery and django-celery needing to sync up, but it still needs someone interested in watching that and updating it and testing it, etc. We should make sure it works in Fedora. :) - Theres 8 open ask infrastructure tickets: #3654 Ask Fedora uses flags to show a user's location (needs working with upstream to enable disabling them) #4012 ask.fedoraproject.org 'give feedback' broken #3818 Enable multilingual support in ask ( hopefully fixed with upgrade ) #3840 [HOTFIX] Adding upstream fix to post-office to re-enable html mailing (needs someone to make sure this went upstream, if it's in 0.7.49, etc) #3884 Apply Fedora theme to Ask Fedora #3528 Banner for new user points to FAQ but doesn't provide link (needs the theme to exist) #3919 Disable identi.ca login #3675 Unable to re-tag posts on Ask Fedora (needs working with upstream/making hotfixes) kevin
