The Troopers have landed
As you might have noticed we just started stress testing bugzilla... 5:50:24 PM

Starship Troopers?
We still have some topics here before we start with the "clean up" bugzilla discussion. The main title for this comes from the movie "Starship Troopers": In order to kill the bug you have to understand the bug. So, Starship Troopers is the movie for developing software, I guess. Or am I wrong? 11:59:09 AM

Hackathon Update

First Stefano did a good introduction to the great blocks concept, Upayavira talked about his ideas for the CLI, then Sylvain introduced Woody and showed some open issues. And finally we had a needed break! Then we started with flow and it was my turn :( to show my issues about flow. I think noone (apart from Stefano, Sylvain and two or three others) did understand what I meant. This is not due to the topic but because of my poor english...But it's a hackathon, so...in fact, I'm currently start to drop Dywel and use the existing things differently: 1. Currently flow is done in one bigger script file. It would be nice to separate this into functional units, containing only the javascript for one request. 2. Multi-continuations. If you aggregate several applications which all use flow you get problems with the continuations. Although it's possible to have three continuations at the same time for the same user, you have to take care that if the user currently uses one application that the other two application don't use their state and that their flowscript is not executed again. It will be interesting to see what issues/problems we really fix this afternoon, I hope my flow issues of course 11:56:31 AM

GT Hackathon
Today, we were the first ones arriving at the GT Hackathon (apart from Steven and Marc of course). Thanks to Matthew my wifi is working! So let's start... 9:04:05 AM
