[Sugar-devel] SoAS Testing with XS

[Greg Smith]

Hi Martin,

Its good to be back!

Despite my cantankerous approach in person, I missed grilling errr I
mean chatting with you on the phone every week :-)

I'm impressed at your progress and contribution these last six months.
In commercial SW you have to nail the release in limited time and book
orders ASAP, then move on. I'm learning that longevity and pacing
yourself is more important in Open Source.

On the SoAS GPA and XS question:
It looks like Walter added comments on how they generated the error
message: http://dev.sugarlabs.org/ticket/1014

Let us know if you need more info or what other tests you would like
to see done.

In general, which XS release has been tested with the latest SoAS? I
see you made some Jabber updates in XS 0.5.2:
http://wiki.laptop.org/go/XS_Release_Notes

Is that the right target image for a new SoAS deployment wanting
"Collaboration" via Jabber?

For all,

I see some collaboration bugs closed in the Sugar bug db, but I'm not
sure what is tested and working in the latest SoAS. Please send over
any wiki pages, mail list threads or examples of tests done with
collaboration on SoAS.

Caroline,

Can you confirm the target implementation for GPA is SoAS computers
collaborating with each other via Jabber?

There are so many sub-components to this section of SW that we will
need your help to focus on the right area.

Will the Jabber server be in the school or over a WAN to a public
(internet IP addressable) place?

I'll try to document your answers on the Wiki.

HTHs.

Thanks,

Greg S

Hi Greg,

good to hear from you again.

That bug report is just a backtrace. No info on whether the Sugar
client was actually using the Jabber server (via Gabble) or not. Or
what action was taken, what results seen, or versions of things.

Pretty hard to tell what's going on. Are you in touch with Caroline?
Can you get her to flesh out the bug?

It would also be interesting to get the logs from ejabberd on the server.

cheers,


martin
