{{note| PHP-Qt is still under development. }}

PHP is a widely used programming language with support for object orientation. You can find more about the language and its interpreter at [http://www.php.net php.net], or read about the PHP compiler at [http://www.roadsend.com Roadsend.com].

The purpose of PHP bindings is enabling PHP developers to write desktop applications using the powerful technologies provided by Qt, KDE and related frameworks. For now the Qt API is covered.

<syntaxhighlight lang="php">
class MyWidget extends QWidget
{

private $quit;
private $slider;
private $layout;
private $lcd;

function __construct()
{
parent::__construct();

$this->quit = new QPushButton(tr("Quit"));
$this->quit->setFont(new QFont("Times", 18, QFont::Bold));

$this->lcd = new QLCDNumber(2);
$this->lcd->setSegmentStyle(QLCDNumber::Filled);

$this->slider = new QSlider(Qt::Horizontal);
$this->slider->setRange(0, 99);
$this->slider->setValue(0);

$this->connect($this->quit, SIGNAL('clicked()'),
QApplication::instance(), SLOT('quit()'));
$this->connect($this->slider, SIGNAL('valueChanged(int)'),
$this->lcd, SLOT('display(int)'));

$this->layout = new QVBoxLayout();
$this->layout->addWidget($this->quit);
$this->layout->addWidget($this->lcd);
$this->layout->addWidget($this->slider);
$this->setLayout($this->layout);

Projects/MovetoGit

2010-10-25T11:05:14Z

Chani: we haz servers! :)

This is the page for co-ordinating KDE's move to [http://git-scm.com/ Git].

If you're interested in helping, you should join the [https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-scm-interest kde-scm-interest@kde.org] mailinglist and [irc://chat.freenode.net/kde-git #kde-git] on freenode.

Meetings are wednesdays, 19:30 UTC, in #kde-git.

'''New! [http://community.kde.org/Sysadmin/DeveloperAccessForRuleWriting The best way you can help us migrate]'''

=The Plan=

KDE is, eventually, moving to Git. We will be using gitolite + Redmine + reviewboard on our own servers.

In the summer of 2009, [http://gitorious.org/amarok Amarok] moved to Gitorious to test the waters and find problems that would affect KDE.

After it has been decided in Jun 2010 to use our own servers, Amarok and Konversation moved to git.kde.org/projects.kde.org to test the waters and find problems that would affect KDE.

Once those problems have been solved, all of KDE will be able to switch.

A full schedule for the git infrastructure can be found [http://community.kde.org/Sysadmin/GitInfrastructureLaunch here].

==Why?==

Git offers many advantages over svn, including offline commits and much easier to keep a feature branch up-to-date. Many KDE developers are already using git-svn, but this tool has its limitations. We want to have the full power of Git available, and we have people willing to do the work necessary to migrate.

==How?==

When we move, KDE's svn repository will be migrated into several Git repos, all on git.kde.org. Main modules such as kdelibs and kdebase will each become one repository. Projects in extragear will each have their own repository. The projects.kde.org site will have a list (lists?) of all these repositories using the redmine project wiki. Scripts will be provided for downloading, say, all of extragear, so "moving" a project from kdereview to extragear would simply involve editing a file kept online that defined the location of projects.
Details on the reasoning behind this layout is available [[Projects/MoveToGit/Layout|here]].

A few things will stay in subversion - currently websites, translations and manuals. It's possible they could move to Git later, but they won't be part of the mass migration.

All KDE developers will in principle be able to use their existing "svn" accounts. Developers using HTTPS ideally would request their HTTPS SVN account to be converted to SSH as that makes it easiest for the KDE sysadmins, but alternatively they can also just provide a public key. At some point the KDE sysadmins are going to send everybody with a HTTPS SVN account an email with a link to a web app to collect their key (see http://www.omat.nl/2010/06/13/sysamin-update-your-email-address/).

From the times when gitorious.org was the preferred hosting solution, a procedure to move a project from svn to gitorious.org can be found in [[Projects/MoveToGit/StepsToMove|Steps to follow for Moving]].
Many points probably still apply, but have to be updated.

=Blockers=

Tasks that need to get done before we can migrate

==Setup git.kde.org==
{{Progress bar|40}}
'''Owner:''' Eike, Jeff, Sysadmin team

'''Status:''' ''Progressing''

: It [http://lists.kde.org/?l=kde-scm-interest&m=127612957219466&w=2 has been decided] to use gitolite + Redmine + reviewboard on our own servers rather than gitorious.org. Sysadmin team is preparing git.kde.org for this.

==Write / update importing rules for svn2git==
{{Progress bar|5}}
'''Owner:''' see below - volunteers needed!

'''Status:''' ''sho: ???, tumaix:started to read the docs, cryos: getting started [2010-01-06]''

:The importer is on gitorious.org as svn2git we have a set of rules to tell the importer what svn dirs turn into which git repos and those need constant updating whenever a new branch or tag or project is created. Currently the rules are mostly a rough draft, as seen by the large amount of rule-editing that had to be done for Konversation and Amarok. This has not been done for quite some time and so someone should rsync the svn repo run svn2git and fix the rules and importer whenever the import stops.

:This is a very big task, too big for one person; it's probably best to tackle it one module at a time

:To get started on a module, read [[Projects/MoveToGit/UsingSvn2Git|Using Svn2Git]]

:TZander has done the koffice ruleset as of 2009-01-06

:Jpwhiting has finished (more or less) the kdeaccessibility ruleset 2010-01-24.

:aavci has done the k3b ruleset as of 2010-01-27

== Requirements of KDEPIM and KDAB ==

{{Progress bar|90}}
'''Owner:''' Stephen Kelly

'''Status:''' ''Proposed workflow identified. Partially depends on KDE policies regarding branches and merging. Gathering estimates for porting of tooling from svn to git. People unfamiliar with the tool are starting to learn to use it.''

'''Estimated completion date''': End of May.

'''Summary of issues'''

* Clean slate
** The existing backlog of commits which need to be merged or ported to trunk needs to be empty before the change to git so that nothing gets lost. This is a lot of work and will take time. ''Estimate'' 10 calendar weeks.
* Technical difficulties and limitations.
** Up to KDE 3.5 there was one kdepim module. For the KDE4 cycle, this was split into kdepimlibs and kdepim. For the above mentioned merging to be possible, it makes sense for both to be in the same git module. This poses extra difficulty to the svn2git script.

'''Email threads'''

* Mid-January thread on scm-interest: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.kde.devel.pim/26726
* Early March thread on kde-core-devel (Till email): http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.kde.devel.core/63915/focus=63970
* Early March thread on kde-core-devel (Till follow-up):
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.kde.devel.core/63915/focus=64069

'''Resolved Issues'''

* Branch maintenance workflow '''Resolution: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.kde.scm-interest/1310'''
** KDAB maintains several branches of legacy versions of KDE for enterprise customer deployments. [http://websvn.kde.org:80/branches/kdepim/enterprise/ Enterprise 3.5] [http://websvn.kde.org:80/branches/kdepim/enterprise4/ Enterprise 4 (based on KDE 4.2)]. The current KDEPIM trunk known as Enterprise 5 and is Akonadi based.
** Periodically (weekly or so), tags are created from the enterprise branches with bugfixes. http://websvn.kde.org:80/tags/kdepim/ Customers can download the tagged versions with the latest updates. Fixes are merged from the Enterprise 3.5 branch, and into trunk (which sometimes involves a lot of work, as the fix must be ported to Akonadi). Additionally, fixes get merged in the other direction. From official KDE modules into the Enterprise branches.
** Some fixes from Enterprise 3.5 should not be merged into Enterprise 4 for reasons such as no longer being reproducible. Some fixes do not get merged for a long time because they require so much work that porting the fix or feature is deffered. There needs to be a list of commits which should never be merged (blocked commits), and commits which should be merged, but have not been merged yet. The tool [[Development/Tools/svnmerge.py|svnmerge]] is used to facilitate this. svnmerge uses svn properties to maintain lists of commits that are blocked and that have already been integrated. See for example the svn-blocked and svn-integrated properties here: http://websvn.kde.org:80/trunk/KDE/kdepim/. The lists of commits available to be merged into the various branches are here: http://www.kdab.com/~thomas/avail/
** There needs to be a way in git to keep track of what commits have been merged, what commits need to be merged, and what commits are blocked. There needs to be a way of merging only specific commits from a branch, but not all, and not blocked commits. Proposed solutions:
*** git cherry-pick allows 'merging' of individual commits, but does not record where the commits came from. Instead it creates a new commit without any reference to where it came from. This alone is unsuitable.
*** branch per fix. This would lead to an explosion of branches which is not a problem in git as all commits are branches. It may make gitk un-navigatable. There would need to be a naming convention such as komo-merge-<fixname> for branches which should be merged. The commands <tt>git checkout 4.5 && git merge $(git branch -a | grep -E ^origin/komo-merge)</tt> and <tt>git checkout enterprise4.5 && git merge $(git branch -a | grep -E ^origin/komo-merge)</tt> and <tt>git checkout master && git merge $(git branch -a | grep -E ^origin/komo-merge)</tt>. That could of course be optimized, but gets the point across. If the code has changed so much that the branch is unmergable, but the fix still needs to be in trunk, the system breaks down.
*** Custom git command with flat text files representing the same information as svnmerge, that is lists of blocked and integrated commits. This is most likely to be a workable solution, possibly together with conventional branch naming.
* Internal Tools and external customer tools and workflows
** KDAB is a consumer of KDE software, but also has downstream customers fetching software from where it is developed. That is, KDE SVN. For example packages are created from the tags in tags/kdepim. Some of these downstreams are less close to KDE and depend on current workflows. If KDE SVN is not the place to get those updates anymore, this needs to be communicated to those downstreams, and the tools updated. ''Estimate'' 1 week to port the tools.
*** Internally used tools have been updated and are now being used to access git repos such as dbus.
* Other commitments
** Project deadlines and other commitments prevent the possibility of blocking off time to work on git migration when so many other things need to be done which have milestones separate to KDE cycles. The required work to convert to git can't be prioritized as highly, and so will take more time.
*** Most of the technical work regarding migration of kdepim repos has been completed by community member Torgny Nyblom.
* Tool knowledge
** People who don't currently know how to use git need to get familiar with it so that transitioning will be nearly seamless, and not result in too much development slowdown.
*** Workshops and use of git-svn have been used to bring developers up to speed on how to use git at some level.

==Push log==
{{Progress bar|100}}
'''Owner:''' sysadmin

'''Status:''' finished

It's a push log, similar to a local repository's reflog.

---------------

For every push, log:
- who pushed (not the Unix username, which will be "git")
- which branch heads changed (what from, what to)
- which tags were created
- the state of all other branches and tags

Just use git commit-tree with the empty tree and save everything in the commit
message, one after the other.

-----------

Gitolite includes this functionality inbuilt to itself, although all repositories are logged in the same file - bcooksley

==Script for downloading virtual KDE hierarchies==
{{Progress bar|99}}
'''Owner''':

'''Status:'''

:we already have kdesvn-build, build-tool and mr: three good tools for managing repos.

Most people use kdesrc-build; it will neither eat babies nor kittens. it has options for updating everything or individual modules, can do fetch-only or build-only, etc..
Command-line options for updating the configuration would be a nice addition.

TODO: details on mr and build-tool

note: scripty also has its own list of repos. it's just in a rather weird bash file.

'''Discussion:'''

As far as I can see, kdesvn-build is able to do it, it should be just a matter of providing a configuration. As I'm not using build-tool, I can't say anything about it. --jmho

Just ensure that all files are stored as LF only, except if there's a
.gitattributes file saying "-crlf" (i.e., allow it to have CRLF).

'''Discussion'''
* Gentoo: They seem to be prepared for moving their live SVN packages to git; their package manager has easily-reusable classes to fetch from an SCM and moving the ebuilds to using the git class rather than the SVN class should be easy. Positive comments to that end from people in #gentoo-kde.
* Fedora: Some unhappyness about git because SVN allows them to remotely produce a diff between two SVN URLs (or two revisions of one and the same URL) without making a checkout first, while git requires making a clone. Kevin Kofler (IRC nick Kevin_Kofler, #fedora-kde) says this will make their packager work harder.
* Debian: Is indifferent about the SCM switch.

Have a sensible system for merge request emails. This is now in place - you can join groups, chose whether to have emails on a per repo basis, etc.

==SSH blocked in corporations and universities.==
{{Progress bar|100}}
'''Owner:''' ''Unknown''

:Some universities tend to block the SSH port. There should be a workaround to use SSH on some different port. github.com already runs a SSH server on port 443. But that assumes you are using a proxy. It has been found that this hasn't worked with a lot of people, especially those who have a direct connection to the internet ( so some transparent blocking by the ISP ). It would be great if (almost) every KDE developer were to be asked to check if other ports work before KDE made the switch. Otherwise there could be an automated email where the git patches could be sent, and appropriately patched to the right location too.

'''Discussion'''

:gitorious guys said they *might* be willing to allow a few scripts on their server for KDE as a special exception, iirc. --chani

:: Yes, at least for basic things, heavier things like doc building would probably have to be mirrored (goes for pre/post) --johan-s

==kde-common/accounts==

Someone said: KDE accounts file is no longer necessary---used for mapping svn ID -> email, but we have that now from Gitorious.
Answer from David Faure: I strongly disagree. We still need a KDE accounts file. This is very useful for finding people's email addresses, and having an overview on the number of active kde contributors; and if we keep it we can even have a kdepim resource again for filling an addressbook from it, for completion in kmail's composer (so you can write to any other kde contributor by just typing his/her name). It's also used for populating automatically the kde-cvs-announce mailing-list, for announcements. kde-common/accounts is our family tree (well, list), let's not get rid of it.

Here's my proposal for a kde-common/accounts replacement for the git era: We write a post-receive hook that looks at every commit and records all known email addresses for a given real name as well as the commit hash and date of when an address was last encountered. We can then present that data in the form of a file like kde-common/accounts, or write a web interface to query it (with nice links to the commits on Gitorious, etc.) --Eike (Sho_ on IRC)

To clear up possible confusion: The author information for a given commit is baked into the commit object itself, and comes from the configuration of the git repository it was created in. It is unrelated to any Gitorious account. Due to the distributed nature of Git, the one who uses his Gitorious account to push a commit need not be the same who created it. If Developer A creates a commit in his local clone and Developer B fetches it into his local clone directly from Developer A's machine and then pushes it into the public repo, the repo will only show a commit from Developer A. The Gitorious website will show that Developer B has pushed up a commit from Developer A, but that data is not contained in the repository. Thus collecting only Gitorious accounts and their mail addresses is insufficient. --Eike

==Random==
http://mail.kde.org/pipermail/dot-stories/2005-May/000509.html might be a good guide on what docs we need.

some of this stuff was from the list from GCDS that was in this email [http://markmail.org/message/u6eqfjece7fibfyo http://markmail.org/message/u6eqfjece7fibfyo]

Chani: /* How? */ documentation++

This is the page for co-ordinating KDE's move to [http://git-scm.com/ Git].

If you're interested in helping, you should join the [https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-scm-interest kde-scm-interest@kde.org] mailinglist and [irc://chat.freenode.net/kde-git #kde-git] on freenode.

Meetings are wednesdays, 19:30 UTC, in #kde-git.

=The Plan=

KDE is, eventually, moving to Git. We will be using gitosis + Redmine + reviewboard on our own servers.

In the summer of 2009, [http://gitorious.org/amarok Amarok] moved to Gitorious to test the waters and find problems that would affect KDE.

After it has been decided in Jun 2010 to use our own servers, Amarok and Konversation moved to git.kde.org/projects.kde.org to test the waters and find problems that would affect KDE.

Once those problems have been solved, all of KDE will be able to switch.

A full schedule for the git infrastructure can be found [http://community.kde.org/Sysadmin/GitInfrastructureLaunch here].

==Why?==

Git offers many advantages over svn, including offline commits and much easier to keep a feature branch up-to-date. Many KDE developers are already using git-svn, but this tool has its limitations. We want to have the full power of Git available, and we have people willing to do the work necessary to migrate.

==How?==

When we move, KDE's svn repository will be migrated into several Git repos, all on git.kde.org. Main modules such as kdelibs and kdebase will each become one repository. Projects in extragear will each have their own repository. The projects.kde.org site will have a list (lists?) of all these repositories using the redmine project wiki. Scripts will be provided for downloading, say, all of extragear, so "moving" a project from kdereview to extragear would simply involve editing a file kept online that defined the location of projects.
Details on the reasoning behind this layout is available [[Projects/MoveToGit/Layout|here]].

A few things will stay in subversion - currently websites, translations and manuals. It's possible they could move to Git later, but they won't be part of the mass migration.

All KDE developers will in principle be able to use their existing "svn" accounts. Developers using HTTPS ideally would request their HTTPS SVN account to be converted to SSH as that makes it easiest for the KDE sysadmins, but alternatively they can also just provide a public key. At some point the KDE sysadmins are going to send everybody with a HTTPS SVN account an email with a link to a web app to collect their key (see http://www.omat.nl/2010/06/13/sysamin-update-your-email-address/).

From the times when gitorious.org was the preferred hosting solution, a procedure to move a project from svn to gitorious.org can be found in [[Projects/MoveToGit/StepsToMove|Steps to follow for Moving]].
Many points probably still apply, but have to be updated.

'''Status:''' ''Progressing''

: It [http://lists.kde.org/?l=kde-scm-interest&m=127612957219466&w=2 has been decided] to use gitosis + Redmine + reviewboard on our own servers rather than gitorious.org. Sysadmin team is preparing git.kde.org for this.

==Write / update importing rules for svn2git==
{{Progress bar|5}}
'''Owner:''' see below - volunteers needed!

'''Status:''' ''sho: ???, tumaix:started to read the docs, cryos: getting started [2010-01-06]''

:The importer is on gitorious.org as svn2git we have a set of rules to tell the importer what svn dirs turn into which git repos and those need constant updating whenever a new branch or tag or project is created. Currently the rules are mostly a rough draft, as seen by the large amount of rule-editing that had to be done for Konversation and Amarok. This has not been done for quite some time and so someone should rsync the svn repo run svn2git and fix the rules and importer whenever the import stops.

:This is a very big task, too big for one person; it's probably best to tackle it one module at a time

:To get started on a module, read [[Projects/MoveToGit/UsingSvn2Git|Using Svn2Git]]

== Requirements of KDEPIM and KDAB ==

{{Progress bar|90}}
'''Owner:''' Stephen Kelly

'''Status:''' ''Proposed workflow identified. Partially depends on KDE policies regarding branches and merging. Gathering estimates for porting of tooling from svn to git. People unfamiliar with the tool are starting to learn to use it.''

'''Estimated completion date''': End of May.

'''Summary of issues'''

* Clean slate
** The existing backlog of commits which need to be merged or ported to trunk needs to be empty before the change to git so that nothing gets lost. This is a lot of work and will take time. ''Estimate'' 10 calendar weeks.
* Technical difficulties and limitations.
** Up to KDE 3.5 there was one kdepim module. For the KDE4 cycle, this was split into kdepimlibs and kdepim. For the above mentioned merging to be possible, it makes sense for both to be in the same git module. This poses extra difficulty to the svn2git script.

'''Email threads'''

* Mid-January thread on scm-interest: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.kde.devel.pim/26726
* Early March thread on kde-core-devel (Till email): http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.kde.devel.core/63915/focus=63970
* Early March thread on kde-core-devel (Till follow-up):
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.kde.devel.core/63915/focus=64069

'''Resolved Issues'''

* Branch maintenance workflow '''Resolution: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.kde.scm-interest/1310'''
** KDAB maintains several branches of legacy versions of KDE for enterprise customer deployments. [http://websvn.kde.org:80/branches/kdepim/enterprise/ Enterprise 3.5] [http://websvn.kde.org:80/branches/kdepim/enterprise4/ Enterprise 4 (based on KDE 4.2)]. The current KDEPIM trunk known as Enterprise 5 and is Akonadi based.
** Periodically (weekly or so), tags are created from the enterprise branches with bugfixes. http://websvn.kde.org:80/tags/kdepim/ Customers can download the tagged versions with the latest updates. Fixes are merged from the Enterprise 3.5 branch, and into trunk (which sometimes involves a lot of work, as the fix must be ported to Akonadi). Additionally, fixes get merged in the other direction. From official KDE modules into the Enterprise branches.
** Some fixes from Enterprise 3.5 should not be merged into Enterprise 4 for reasons such as no longer being reproducible. Some fixes do not get merged for a long time because they require so much work that porting the fix or feature is deffered. There needs to be a list of commits which should never be merged (blocked commits), and commits which should be merged, but have not been merged yet. The tool [[Development/Tools/svnmerge.py|svnmerge]] is used to facilitate this. svnmerge uses svn properties to maintain lists of commits that are blocked and that have already been integrated. See for example the svn-blocked and svn-integrated properties here: http://websvn.kde.org:80/trunk/KDE/kdepim/. The lists of commits available to be merged into the various branches are here: http://www.kdab.com/~thomas/avail/
** There needs to be a way in git to keep track of what commits have been merged, what commits need to be merged, and what commits are blocked. There needs to be a way of merging only specific commits from a branch, but not all, and not blocked commits. Proposed solutions:
*** git cherry-pick allows 'merging' of individual commits, but does not record where the commits came from. Instead it creates a new commit without any reference to where it came from. This alone is unsuitable.
*** branch per fix. This would lead to an explosion of branches which is not a problem in git as all commits are branches. It may make gitk un-navigatable. There would need to be a naming convention such as komo-merge-<fixname> for branches which should be merged. The commands <tt>git checkout 4.5 && git merge $(git branch -a | grep -E ^origin/komo-merge)</tt> and <tt>git checkout enterprise4.5 && git merge $(git branch -a | grep -E ^origin/komo-merge)</tt> and <tt>git checkout master && git merge $(git branch -a | grep -E ^origin/komo-merge)</tt>. That could of course be optimized, but gets the point across. If the code has changed so much that the branch is unmergable, but the fix still needs to be in trunk, the system breaks down.
*** Custom git command with flat text files representing the same information as svnmerge, that is lists of blocked and integrated commits. This is most likely to be a workable solution, possibly together with conventional branch naming.
* Internal Tools and external customer tools and workflows
** KDAB is a consumer of KDE software, but also has downstream customers fetching software from where it is developed. That is, KDE SVN. For example packages are created from the tags in tags/kdepim. Some of these downstreams are less close to KDE and depend on current workflows. If KDE SVN is not the place to get those updates anymore, this needs to be communicated to those downstreams, and the tools updated. ''Estimate'' 1 week to port the tools.
*** Internally used tools have been updated and are now being used to access git repos such as dbus.
* Other commitments
** Project deadlines and other commitments prevent the possibility of blocking off time to work on git migration when so many other things need to be done which have milestones separate to KDE cycles. The required work to convert to git can't be prioritized as highly, and so will take more time.
*** Most of the technical work regarding migration of kdepim repos has been completed by community member Torgny Nyblom.
* Tool knowledge
** People who don't currently know how to use git need to get familiar with it so that transitioning will be nearly seamless, and not result in too much development slowdown.
*** Workshops and use of git-svn have been used to bring developers up to speed on how to use git at some level.

==Push log==
{{Progress bar|100}}
'''Owner:''' sysadmin

'''Status:''' finished

It's a push log, similar to a local repository's reflog.

---------------

For every push, log:
- who pushed (not the Unix username, which will be "git")
- which branch heads changed (what from, what to)
- which tags were created
- the state of all other branches and tags

Just use git commit-tree with the empty tree and save everything in the commit
message, one after the other.

-----------

Gitolite includes this functionality inbuilt to itself, although all repositories are logged in the same file - bcooksley

* Fedora: Some unhappyness about git because SVN allows them to remotely produce a diff between two SVN URLs (or two revisions of one and the same URL) without making a checkout first, while git requires making a clone. Kevin Kofler (IRC nick Kevin_Kofler, #fedora-kde) says this will make their packager work harder.

:Some universities tend to block the SSH port. There should be a workaround to use SSH on some different port. github.com already runs a SSH server on port 443. But that assumes you are using a proxy. It has been found that this hasn't worked with a lot of people, especially those who have a direct connection to the internet ( so some transparent blocking by the ISP ). It would be great if (almost) every KDE developer were to be asked to check if other ports work before KDE made the switch. Otherwise there could be an automated email where the git patches could be sent, and appropriately patched to the right location too.

==kde-common/accounts==

Someone said: KDE accounts file is no longer necessary---used for mapping svn ID -> email, but we have that now from Gitorious.
Answer from David Faure: I strongly disagree. We still need a KDE accounts file. This is very useful for finding people's email addresses, and having an overview on the number of active kde contributors; and if we keep it we can even have a kdepim resource again for filling an addressbook from it, for completion in kmail's composer (so you can write to any other kde contributor by just typing his/her name). It's also used for populating automatically the kde-cvs-announce mailing-list, for announcements. kde-common/accounts is our family tree (well, list), let's not get rid of it.

Here's my proposal for a kde-common/accounts replacement for the git era: We write a post-receive hook that looks at every commit and records all known email addresses for a given real name as well as the commit hash and date of when an address was last encountered. We can then present that data in the form of a file like kde-common/accounts, or write a web interface to query it (with nice links to the commits on Gitorious, etc.) --Eike (Sho_ on IRC)

To clear up possible confusion: The author information for a given commit is baked into the commit object itself, and comes from the configuration of the git repository it was created in. It is unrelated to any Gitorious account. Due to the distributed nature of Git, the one who uses his Gitorious account to push a commit need not be the same who created it. If Developer A creates a commit in his local clone and Developer B fetches it into his local clone directly from Developer A's machine and then pushes it into the public repo, the repo will only show a commit from Developer A. The Gitorious website will show that Developer B has pushed up a commit from Developer A, but that data is not contained in the repository. Thus collecting only Gitorious accounts and their mail addresses is insufficient. --Eike

http://mail.kde.org/pipermail/dot-stories/2005-May/000509.html might be a good guide on what docs we need.

Chani: /* Script for downloading virtual KDE hierarchies */ fix links

This is the page for co-ordinating KDE's move to [http://git-scm.com/ Git].

If you're interested in helping, you should join the [https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-scm-interest kde-scm-interest@kde.org] mailinglist and [irc://chat.freenode.net/kde-git #kde-git] on freenode.

Meetings are wednesdays, 19:30 UTC, in #kde-git.

=The Plan=

KDE is, eventually, moving to Git. We will be using gitosis + Redmine + reviewboard on our own servers.

In the summer of 2009, [http://gitorious.org/amarok Amarok] moved to Gitorious to test the waters and find problems that would affect KDE.

After it has been decided in Jun 2010 to use our own servers, Amarok and Konversation moved to git.kde.org/projects.kde.org to test the waters and find problems that would affect KDE.

Once those problems have been solved, all of KDE will be able to switch.

A full schedule for the git infrastructure can be found [http://community.kde.org/Sysadmin/GitInfrastructureLaunch here].

==Why?==

Git offers many advantages over svn, including offline commits and much easier to keep a feature branch up-to-date. Many KDE developers are already using git-svn, but this tool has its limitations. We want to have the full power of Git available, and we have people willing to do the work necessary to migrate.

==How?==

When we move, KDE's svn repository will be migrated into several Git repos, all on git.kde.org. Main modules such as kdelibs and kdebase will each become one repository. Projects in extragear will each have their own repository. The projects.kde.org site will have a list (lists?) of all these repositories using the redmine project wiki. Scripts will be provided for downloading, say, all of extragear, so "moving" a project from kdereview to extragear would simply involve editing a file kept online that defined the location of projects.

A few things will stay in subversion - currently websites, translations and manuals. It's possible they could move to Git later, but they won't be part of the mass migration.

All KDE developers will in principle be able to use their existing "svn" accounts. Developers using HTTPS ideally would request their HTTPS SVN account to be converted to SSH as that makes it easiest for the KDE sysadmins, but alternatively they can also just provide a public key. At some point the KDE sysadmins are going to send everybody with a HTTPS SVN account an email with a link to a web app to collect their key (see http://www.omat.nl/2010/06/13/sysamin-update-your-email-address/).

From the times when gitorious.org was the preferred hosting solution, a procedure to move a project from svn to gitorious.org can be found in [[Projects/MoveToGit/StepsToMove|Steps to follow for Moving]].
Many points probably still apply, but have to be updated.

== Requirements of KDEPIM and KDAB ==

{{Progress bar|90}}
'''Owner:''' Stephen Kelly

'''Status:''' ''Proposed workflow identified. Partially depends on KDE policies regarding branches and merging. Gathering estimates for porting of tooling from svn to git. People unfamiliar with the tool are starting to learn to use it.''

'''Estimated completion date''': End of May.

'''Summary of issues'''

* Clean slate
** The existing backlog of commits which need to be merged or ported to trunk needs to be empty before the change to git so that nothing gets lost. This is a lot of work and will take time. ''Estimate'' 10 calendar weeks.
* Technical difficulties and limitations.
** Up to KDE 3.5 there was one kdepim module. For the KDE4 cycle, this was split into kdepimlibs and kdepim. For the above mentioned merging to be possible, it makes sense for both to be in the same git module. This poses extra difficulty to the svn2git script.

'''Email threads'''

* Mid-January thread on scm-interest: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.kde.devel.pim/26726
* Early March thread on kde-core-devel (Till email): http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.kde.devel.core/63915/focus=63970
* Early March thread on kde-core-devel (Till follow-up):
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.kde.devel.core/63915/focus=64069

'''Resolved Issues'''

* Branch maintenance workflow '''Resolution: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.kde.scm-interest/1310'''
** KDAB maintains several branches of legacy versions of KDE for enterprise customer deployments. [http://websvn.kde.org:80/branches/kdepim/enterprise/ Enterprise 3.5] [http://websvn.kde.org:80/branches/kdepim/enterprise4/ Enterprise 4 (based on KDE 4.2)]. The current KDEPIM trunk known as Enterprise 5 and is Akonadi based.
** Periodically (weekly or so), tags are created from the enterprise branches with bugfixes. http://websvn.kde.org:80/tags/kdepim/ Customers can download the tagged versions with the latest updates. Fixes are merged from the Enterprise 3.5 branch, and into trunk (which sometimes involves a lot of work, as the fix must be ported to Akonadi). Additionally, fixes get merged in the other direction. From official KDE modules into the Enterprise branches.
** Some fixes from Enterprise 3.5 should not be merged into Enterprise 4 for reasons such as no longer being reproducible. Some fixes do not get merged for a long time because they require so much work that porting the fix or feature is deffered. There needs to be a list of commits which should never be merged (blocked commits), and commits which should be merged, but have not been merged yet. The tool [[Development/Tools/svnmerge.py|svnmerge]] is used to facilitate this. svnmerge uses svn properties to maintain lists of commits that are blocked and that have already been integrated. See for example the svn-blocked and svn-integrated properties here: http://websvn.kde.org:80/trunk/KDE/kdepim/. The lists of commits available to be merged into the various branches are here: http://www.kdab.com/~thomas/avail/
** There needs to be a way in git to keep track of what commits have been merged, what commits need to be merged, and what commits are blocked. There needs to be a way of merging only specific commits from a branch, but not all, and not blocked commits. Proposed solutions:
*** git cherry-pick allows 'merging' of individual commits, but does not record where the commits came from. Instead it creates a new commit without any reference to where it came from. This alone is unsuitable.
*** branch per fix. This would lead to an explosion of branches which is not a problem in git as all commits are branches. It may make gitk un-navigatable. There would need to be a naming convention such as komo-merge-<fixname> for branches which should be merged. The commands <tt>git checkout 4.5 && git merge $(git branch -a | grep -E ^origin/komo-merge)</tt> and <tt>git checkout enterprise4.5 && git merge $(git branch -a | grep -E ^origin/komo-merge)</tt> and <tt>git checkout master && git merge $(git branch -a | grep -E ^origin/komo-merge)</tt>. That could of course be optimized, but gets the point across. If the code has changed so much that the branch is unmergable, but the fix still needs to be in trunk, the system breaks down.
*** Custom git command with flat text files representing the same information as svnmerge, that is lists of blocked and integrated commits. This is most likely to be a workable solution, possibly together with conventional branch naming.
* Internal Tools and external customer tools and workflows
** KDAB is a consumer of KDE software, but also has downstream customers fetching software from where it is developed. That is, KDE SVN. For example packages are created from the tags in tags/kdepim. Some of these downstreams are less close to KDE and depend on current workflows. If KDE SVN is not the place to get those updates anymore, this needs to be communicated to those downstreams, and the tools updated. ''Estimate'' 1 week to port the tools.
*** Internally used tools have been updated and are now being used to access git repos such as dbus.
* Other commitments
** Project deadlines and other commitments prevent the possibility of blocking off time to work on git migration when so many other things need to be done which have milestones separate to KDE cycles. The required work to convert to git can't be prioritized as highly, and so will take more time.
*** Most of the technical work regarding migration of kdepim repos has been completed by community member Torgny Nyblom.
* Tool knowledge
** People who don't currently know how to use git need to get familiar with it so that transitioning will be nearly seamless, and not result in too much development slowdown.
*** Workshops and use of git-svn have been used to bring developers up to speed on how to use git at some level.

==Push log==
{{Progress bar|100}}
'''Owner:''' sysadmin

'''Status:''' finished

It's a push log, similar to a local repository's reflog.

---------------

For every push, log:
- who pushed (not the Unix username, which will be "git")
- which branch heads changed (what from, what to)
- which tags were created
- the state of all other branches and tags

Just use git commit-tree with the empty tree and save everything in the commit
message, one after the other.

Gitolite includes this functionality inbuilt to itself, although all repositories are logged in the same file - bcooksley

* Gentoo: They seem to be prepared for moving their live SVN packages to git; their package manager has easily-reusable classes to fetch from an SCM and moving the ebuilds to using the git class rather than the SVN class should be easy. Positive comments to that end from people in #gentoo-kde.
* Fedora: Some unhappyness about git because SVN allows them to remotely produce a diff between two SVN URLs (or two revisions of one and the same URL) without making a checkout first, while git requires making a clone. Kevin Kofler (IRC nick Kevin_Kofler, #fedora-kde) says this will make their packager work harder.

==SSH blocked in corporations and universities.==

'''Owner:''' ''Unknown''

:Some universities tend to block the SSH port. There should be a workaround to use SSH on some different port. github.com already runs a SSH server on port 443. But that assumes you are using a proxy. It has been found that this hasn't worked with a lot of people, especially those who have a direct connection to the internet ( so some transparent blocking by the ISP ). It would be great if (almost) every KDE developer were to be asked to check if other ports work before KDE made the switch. Otherwise there could be an automated email where the git patches could be sent, and appropriately patched to the right location too.

==kde-common/accounts==

Someone said: KDE accounts file is no longer necessary---used for mapping svn ID -> email, but we have that now from Gitorious.
Answer from David Faure: I strongly disagree. We still need a KDE accounts file. This is very useful for finding people's email addresses, and having an overview on the number of active kde contributors; and if we keep it we can even have a kdepim resource again for filling an addressbook from it, for completion in kmail's composer (so you can write to any other kde contributor by just typing his/her name). It's also used for populating automatically the kde-cvs-announce mailing-list, for announcements. kde-common/accounts is our family tree (well, list), let's not get rid of it.

Here's my proposal for a kde-common/accounts replacement for the git era: We write a post-receive hook that looks at every commit and records all known email addresses for a given real name as well as the commit hash and date of when an address was last encountered. We can then present that data in the form of a file like kde-common/accounts, or write a web interface to query it (with nice links to the commits on Gitorious, etc.) --Eike (Sho_ on IRC)

To clear up possible confusion: The author information for a given commit is baked into the commit object itself, and comes from the configuration of the git repository it was created in. It is unrelated to any Gitorious account. Due to the distributed nature of Git, the one who uses his Gitorious account to push a commit need not be the same who created it. If Developer A creates a commit in his local clone and Developer B fetches it into his local clone directly from Developer A's machine and then pushes it into the public repo, the repo will only show a commit from Developer A. The Gitorious website will show that Developer B has pushed up a commit from Developer A, but that data is not contained in the repository. Thus collecting only Gitorious accounts and their mail addresses is insufficient. --Eike

==Random==
http://mail.kde.org/pipermail/dot-stories/2005-May/000509.html might be a good guide on what docs we need.

Chani: oh look at this, it *was* documented! and now it's documented even more!

This is the page for co-ordinating KDE's move to [http://git-scm.com/ Git].

If you're interested in helping, you should join the [https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-scm-interest kde-scm-interest@kde.org] mailinglist and [irc://chat.freenode.net/kde-git #kde-git] on freenode.

Meetings are wednesdays, 19:30 UTC, in #kde-git.

=The Plan=

KDE is, eventually, moving to Git. We will be using gitosis + Redmine + reviewboard on our own servers.

In the summer of 2009, [http://gitorious.org/amarok Amarok] moved to Gitorious to test the waters and find problems that would affect KDE.

After it has been decided in Jun 2010 to use our own servers, Amarok and Konversation moved to git.kde.org/projects.kde.org to test the waters and find problems that would affect KDE.

Once those problems have been solved, all of KDE will be able to switch.

A full schedule for the git infrastructure can be found [http://community.kde.org/Sysadmin/GitInfrastructureLaunch here].

==Why?==

Git offers many advantages over svn, including offline commits and much easier to keep a feature branch up-to-date. Many KDE developers are already using git-svn, but this tool has its limitations. We want to have the full power of Git available, and we have people willing to do the work necessary to migrate.

==How?==

When we move, KDE's svn repository will be migrated into several Git repos, all on git.kde.org. Main modules such as kdelibs and kdebase will each become one repository. Projects in extragear will each have their own repository. The projects.kde.org site will have a list (lists?) of all these repositories using the redmine project wiki. Scripts will be provided for downloading, say, all of extragear, so "moving" a project from kdereview to extragear would simply involve editing a file kept online that defined the location of projects.

A few things will stay in subversion - currently websites, translations and manuals. It's possible they could move to Git later, but they won't be part of the mass migration.

All KDE developers will in principle be able to use their existing "svn" accounts. Developers using HTTPS ideally would request their HTTPS SVN account to be converted to SSH as that makes it easiest for the KDE sysadmins, but alternatively they can also just provide a public key. At some point the KDE sysadmins are going to send everybody with a HTTPS SVN account an email with a link to a web app to collect their key (see http://www.omat.nl/2010/06/13/sysamin-update-your-email-address/).

From the times when gitorious.org was the preferred hosting solution, a procedure to move a project from svn to gitorious.org can be found in [[Projects/MoveToGit/StepsToMove|Steps to follow for Moving]].
Many points probably still apply, but have to be updated.

:To get started on a module, read [[Projects/MoveToGit/UsingSvn2Git|Using Svn2Git]]

:TZander has done the koffice ruleset as of 2009-01-06

:Jpwhiting has finished (more or less) the kdeaccessibility ruleset 2010-01-24.

:aavci has done the k3b ruleset as of 2010-01-27

== Requirements of KDEPIM and KDAB ==

{{Progress bar|90}}
'''Owner:''' Stephen Kelly

'''Status:''' ''Proposed workflow identified. Partially depends on KDE policies regarding branches and merging. Gathering estimates for porting of tooling from svn to git. People unfamiliar with the tool are starting to learn to use it.''

'''Estimated completion date''': End of May.

'''Summary of issues'''

* Clean slate
** The existing backlog of commits which need to be merged or ported to trunk needs to be empty before the change to git so that nothing gets lost. This is a lot of work and will take time. ''Estimate'' 10 calendar weeks.
* Technical difficulties and limitations.
** Up to KDE 3.5 there was one kdepim module. For the KDE4 cycle, this was split into kdepimlibs and kdepim. For the above mentioned merging to be possible, it makes sense for both to be in the same git module. This poses extra difficulty to the svn2git script.

'''Email threads'''

* Mid-January thread on scm-interest: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.kde.devel.pim/26726
* Early March thread on kde-core-devel (Till email): http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.kde.devel.core/63915/focus=63970
* Early March thread on kde-core-devel (Till follow-up):
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.kde.devel.core/63915/focus=64069

'''Resolved Issues'''

* Branch maintenance workflow '''Resolution: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.kde.scm-interest/1310'''
** KDAB maintains several branches of legacy versions of KDE for enterprise customer deployments. [http://websvn.kde.org:80/branches/kdepim/enterprise/ Enterprise 3.5] [http://websvn.kde.org:80/branches/kdepim/enterprise4/ Enterprise 4 (based on KDE 4.2)]. The current KDEPIM trunk known as Enterprise 5 and is Akonadi based.
** Periodically (weekly or so), tags are created from the enterprise branches with bugfixes. http://websvn.kde.org:80/tags/kdepim/ Customers can download the tagged versions with the latest updates. Fixes are merged from the Enterprise 3.5 branch, and into trunk (which sometimes involves a lot of work, as the fix must be ported to Akonadi). Additionally, fixes get merged in the other direction. From official KDE modules into the Enterprise branches.
** Some fixes from Enterprise 3.5 should not be merged into Enterprise 4 for reasons such as no longer being reproducible. Some fixes do not get merged for a long time because they require so much work that porting the fix or feature is deffered. There needs to be a list of commits which should never be merged (blocked commits), and commits which should be merged, but have not been merged yet. The tool [[Development/Tools/svnmerge.py|svnmerge]] is used to facilitate this. svnmerge uses svn properties to maintain lists of commits that are blocked and that have already been integrated. See for example the svn-blocked and svn-integrated properties here: http://websvn.kde.org:80/trunk/KDE/kdepim/. The lists of commits available to be merged into the various branches are here: http://www.kdab.com/~thomas/avail/
** There needs to be a way in git to keep track of what commits have been merged, what commits need to be merged, and what commits are blocked. There needs to be a way of merging only specific commits from a branch, but not all, and not blocked commits. Proposed solutions:
*** git cherry-pick allows 'merging' of individual commits, but does not record where the commits came from. Instead it creates a new commit without any reference to where it came from. This alone is unsuitable.
*** branch per fix. This would lead to an explosion of branches which is not a problem in git as all commits are branches. It may make gitk un-navigatable. There would need to be a naming convention such as komo-merge-<fixname> for branches which should be merged. The commands <tt>git checkout 4.5 && git merge $(git branch -a | grep -E ^origin/komo-merge)</tt> and <tt>git checkout enterprise4.5 && git merge $(git branch -a | grep -E ^origin/komo-merge)</tt> and <tt>git checkout master && git merge $(git branch -a | grep -E ^origin/komo-merge)</tt>. That could of course be optimized, but gets the point across. If the code has changed so much that the branch is unmergable, but the fix still needs to be in trunk, the system breaks down.
*** Custom git command with flat text files representing the same information as svnmerge, that is lists of blocked and integrated commits. This is most likely to be a workable solution, possibly together with conventional branch naming.
* Internal Tools and external customer tools and workflows
** KDAB is a consumer of KDE software, but also has downstream customers fetching software from where it is developed. That is, KDE SVN. For example packages are created from the tags in tags/kdepim. Some of these downstreams are less close to KDE and depend on current workflows. If KDE SVN is not the place to get those updates anymore, this needs to be communicated to those downstreams, and the tools updated. ''Estimate'' 1 week to port the tools.
*** Internally used tools have been updated and are now being used to access git repos such as dbus.
* Other commitments
** Project deadlines and other commitments prevent the possibility of blocking off time to work on git migration when so many other things need to be done which have milestones separate to KDE cycles. The required work to convert to git can't be prioritized as highly, and so will take more time.
*** Most of the technical work regarding migration of kdepim repos has been completed by community member Torgny Nyblom.
* Tool knowledge
** People who don't currently know how to use git need to get familiar with it so that transitioning will be nearly seamless, and not result in too much development slowdown.
*** Workshops and use of git-svn have been used to bring developers up to speed on how to use git at some level.

==Push log==
{{Progress bar|100}}
'''Owner:''' sysadmin

'''Status:''' finished

It's a push log, similar to a local repository's reflog.

---------------

For every push, log:
- who pushed (not the Unix username, which will be "git")
- which branch heads changed (what from, what to)
- which tags were created
- the state of all other branches and tags

Just use git commit-tree with the empty tree and save everything in the commit
message, one after the other.

-----------

Gitolite includes this functionality inbuilt to itself, although all repositories are logged in the same file - bcooksley

==Script for downloading virtual KDE hierarchies==
{{Progress bar|99}}
'''Owner''':

'''Status:'''

:we already have kdesvn-build, build-tool and mr: three good tools for managing repos.

Most people use kdesrc-build; it will neither eat babies nor kittens. it has options for updating everything or individual modules, can do fetch-only or build-only, etc..
Command-line options for updating the configuration would be a nice addition.

TODO: details on mr and build-tool

note: scripty also has its own list of repos. it's just in a rather weird bash file.

'''Discussion:'''

As far as I can see, kdesvn-build is able to do it, it should be just a matter of providing a configuration. As I'm not using build-tool, I can't say anything about it. --jmho

this got accidentally marked as done or something, but it's not.

This has now been ported to Git - bcooksley

Note however that it doesn't look for a .gitattributes file yet - patches welcome ( see sysadmin/repo-management on git.kde.org )

'''Notes:'''
> > As for line-endings, be careful because Git is different from Subversion.

Just ensure that all files are stored as LF only, except if there's a
.gitattributes file saying "-crlf" (i.e., allow it to have CRLF).

'''Discussion:'''
We have a fairly complete set of post-update hooks now. See [http://gitorious.org/remotehook remotehook]. However, it would be nice to have a system that lives on the Gitorious server and/or requires less manual maintenance. But its certainly workable and no longer a blocker.

==Talk to people using other distros about git==
{{Progress bar|100}}
'''Owner:''' Sebas, Eike

'''Discussion'''
* Gentoo: They seem to be prepared for moving their live SVN packages to git; their package manager has easily-reusable classes to fetch from an SCM and moving the ebuilds to using the git class rather than the SVN class should be easy. Positive comments to that end from people in #gentoo-kde.
* Fedora: Some unhappyness about git because SVN allows them to remotely produce a diff between two SVN URLs (or two revisions of one and the same URL) without making a checkout first, while git requires making a clone. Kevin Kofler (IRC nick Kevin_Kofler, #fedora-kde) says this will make their packager work harder.
* Debian: Is indifferent about the SCM switch.

==Post Update hooks==

==Reviewboard==
{{Progress bar|100}}
'''Owner:''' darktears

This should be easily done with Gitorious web interface and merge requests actually.

:but reviewboard has features gitorious (right now) doesn't, like commenting on specific lines and not having to set up a merge request. --chani
::Also email notifications when someone reviews are needed --thomasz
:We're working on this for someone else right now, so pretty soon --johan-s
:I consider the latest changes to gitorious to finish this. If more reviewboard features are still needed, and git supports reviewboard, I think this is something we can look at doing post-conversion. --Ian Monroe

==Gitorious Needs a feature to disable merge request emails for certain repos==
{{Progress bar|100}}
'''Owner:''' [http://gitorious.org/gitorious Gitorious]

Have a sensible system for merge request emails. This is now in place - you can join groups, chose whether to have emails on a per repo basis, etc.

==SSH blocked in corporations and universities.==
{{Progress bar|100}}
'''Owner:''' ''Unknown''

:Some universities tend to block the SSH port. There should be a workaround to use SSH on some different port. github.com already runs a SSH server on port 443. But that assumes you are using a proxy. It has been found that this hasn't worked with a lot of people, especially those who have a direct connection to the internet ( so some transparent blocking by the ISP ). It would be great if (almost) every KDE developer were to be asked to check if other ports work before KDE made the switch. Otherwise there could be an automated email where the git patches could be sent, and appropriately patched to the right location too.

'''Discussion'''

:http://blog.gitorious.org/2009/10/20/stuck-behind-a-firewall/, and there's always been HTTP cloning (although the current impl. in Git is a bit on the slow side) --johan-s

==Talk to windows guys about git.==
{{Progress bar|100}}
'''Owner:''' aseigo

'''Discussion'''

They aren't huge fans of git, but are using it. They require a single mainline and can't cope with multiple branches. Otherwise, it's workable, even if it will take an adjustment period.

==pre-commit hooks==
{{Progress bar|100}}
'''Owner:''' ''(unknown)''

:acltest, docbook, EOL/UTF-8

:A web hook isn't good enough for these because they have to run and return whether to allow the push, for every single push to every KDE repo.

'''Discussion'''

:gitorious guys said they *might* be willing to allow a few scripts on their server for KDE as a special exception, iirc. --chani

:: Yes, at least for basic things, heavier things like doc building would probably have to be mirrored (goes for pre/post) --johan-s

:It turns out that acl and docbook might not be needed so long as web and docs/ stuff stays in svn.

:: Here's where to find the current scripts - http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/kde-common/svn/hooks/ --[[User:Argonel|Argonel]] 23:06, 11 November 2009 (UTC)

::Apparently, so; moving to complete. (aseigo)

= other notes =

==kde-common/accounts==

Someone said: KDE accounts file is no longer necessary---used for mapping svn ID -> email, but we have that now from Gitorious.
Answer from David Faure: I strongly disagree. We still need a KDE accounts file. This is very useful for finding people's email addresses, and having an overview on the number of active kde contributors; and if we keep it we can even have a kdepim resource again for filling an addressbook from it, for completion in kmail's composer (so you can write to any other kde contributor by just typing his/her name). It's also used for populating automatically the kde-cvs-announce mailing-list, for announcements. kde-common/accounts is our family tree (well, list), let's not get rid of it.

Here's my proposal for a kde-common/accounts replacement for the git era: We write a post-receive hook that looks at every commit and records all known email addresses for a given real name as well as the commit hash and date of when an address was last encountered. We can then present that data in the form of a file like kde-common/accounts, or write a web interface to query it (with nice links to the commits on Gitorious, etc.) --Eike (Sho_ on IRC)

To clear up possible confusion: The author information for a given commit is baked into the commit object itself, and comes from the configuration of the git repository it was created in. It is unrelated to any Gitorious account. Due to the distributed nature of Git, the one who uses his Gitorious account to push a commit need not be the same who created it. If Developer A creates a commit in his local clone and Developer B fetches it into his local clone directly from Developer A's machine and then pushes it into the public repo, the repo will only show a commit from Developer A. The Gitorious website will show that Developer B has pushed up a commit from Developer A, but that data is not contained in the repository. Thus collecting only Gitorious accounts and their mail addresses is insufficient. --Eike

==Random==
http://mail.kde.org/pipermail/dot-stories/2005-May/000509.html might be a good guide on what docs we need.

== Plasma Feedback Round Table ==

Friday 10:30, area 3

This is a session for us to sit around a room with other interested / concerned KDE folk. We will ask and answer the questions those attending have to the best of our abilities (and record those we don't have answers to for further research), and discuss ideas amongst all of those attending regarding Plasma now and in the future.

The goal is extend the reach of Plasma further across KDE and for KDE contributors to have more input into what we are doing, all in a constructive and open atmosphere. Each attendee should be able to walk away with a better understanding of Plasma, and for the Plasma team to walk away with a better understanding of what KDE wants / expects / hopes / needs from Plasma in the future.

If you would like to attend, add your name (in alphabetical order) to the list below, and note your KDE affiliation if desired. If there is a shortage of room (hopefully not!), those on the list will get preferential admission to the round table.

* Aaron Seigo (Plasma)
* Aleix Pol (KDevelop & others)
* Ivan Cukic (Plasma)
* Jeremy Whiting (non-plasma I think?)
* John Layt (plumber)
* Martin Gräßlin (kwin)

== Plasma Feedback Round Table ==

Friday 10:30, area 3

This is a session for us to sit around a room with other interested / concerned KDE folk. We will ask and answer the questions those attending have to the best of our abilities (and record those we don't have answers to for further research), and discuss ideas amongst all of those attending regarding Plasma now and in the future.

The goal is extend the reach of Plasma further across KDE and for KDE contributors to have more input into what we are doing, all in a constructive and open atmosphere. Each attendee should be able to walk away with a better understanding of Plasma, and for the Plasma team to walk away with a better understanding of what KDE wants / expects / hopes / needs from Plasma in the future.

If you would like to attend, add your name (in alphabetical order) to the list below, and note your KDE affiliation if desired. If there is a shortage of room (hopefully not!), those on the list will get preferential admission to the round table.

* Aaron Seigo (Plasma)
* Aleix Pol (KDevelop & others)
* Ivan Cukic (Plasma)
* Jeremy Whiting (non-plasma I think?)
* John Layt (plumber)
* Martin Gräßlin (kwin)
* Ryan Rix (Plasma/KDEPIM/Somewhere)
* Shantanu Tushar (Plasma)
* Chani (plasma)

====for 4.6====

ZUI : Zooming User Interface

There will be 3 zoom levels (will be more like 45% and 8% to allow space between groups): 100%, 50%, and 10%. (Note: 50% fits 4 groups and 10% fits 100)

[http://www.nuno-icons.com/images/estilo/rect3048.png Mockup of 50% view] (with only 2 desktops)

===Description (initial idea)===

The idea is this: plasmoids (launchers, icons, widgets, games, mini-apps, etc) exist in groups. A group can be displayed to take up the full area of the screen. This is what one would most likely recognize as "the desktop" today. You are not, however, limited to just one full screen group. You can have several.

When you zoom out, you see these various groups and the plasmoids within them shrink to mere icons. This lets you pan around and rearrange plasmoids or pick another group (and little else).

Zoom out once more and the groups become little iconified versions of themselves and the plasmoids themselves disappear. This view lets you see all your groups at once even if you have a lot of them. pick one and you zoom in on it.

The idea is to allow one to manage collections of items by grouping them and then quickly switching between them using zoom-and-pan where zoom provides overview (lowering detail), pan provides navigation and unzoom increases detail again (implying selection of another group to use).

===Details===
=====Should plasmoids be iconified or zoomed out?=====
It is easiest to identify plasmoids when they are just scaled down.

=====Kwin integration=====
In the future, we might want to integrate this with kwin.

=====Zoom levels=====
*3 Zoom levels
**Desktop
***Normal Desktop View
**Groups
***Zoomed out groups
***Around 45%
**Overview
***Zoomed out even more
***Maybe have this as a tile level (groups are lined up)

===Use Cases===

Aaron works at home. you can tell he's a happening fellow by his name. As such he does a lot of things with his computer, not just work. He separates his work from his family from his play "lives" on his computer by arranging different desktop sets. Aaron uses the zoom-and-pan to quickly switch between "work" and "family" groups during the day.

Lisa is a graphic designer. At any given time she is working on projects for 2-4 clients. she keeps the work files for each client project in a separate group, each labeled according to the project title. She also keeps the contact list for the other people she's working on the project with (copy writers, the client contact, the project manager, etc), the schedule calendar and current todo list (sync'd to the company's groupware/calendaring server) with each group. As she moves from one project to another, she zooms-and-pans to the appropriate group.

Riccardo is a 16 year old lay-about. He should be working on his chem homework but instead is playing on facebook and myspace. He has the plasmoids for different sets of friends in different groups according to clique and a grouping for his class work. When he hears his mom approaching he quickly zoom-and-pans to the work grouping.

===Use Cases===

Aaron works at home. you can tell he's a happening fellow by his name. As such he does a lot of things with his computer, not just work. He separates his work from his family from his play "lives" on his computer by arranging different desktop sets. Aaron uses the zoom-and-pan to quickly switch between "work" and "family" groups during the day.

Lisa is a graphic designer. At any given time she is working on projects for 2-4 clients. she keeps the work files for each client project in a separate group, each labeled according to the project title. She also keeps the contact list for the other people she's working on the project with (copy writers, the client contact, the project manager, etc), the schedule calendar and current todo list (sync'd to the company's groupware/calendaring server) with each group. As she moves from one project to another, she zooms-and-pans to the appropriate group.

Riccardo is a 16 year old lay-about. He should be working on his chem homework but instead is playing on facebook and myspace. He has the plasmoids for different sets of friends in different groups according to clique and a grouping for his class work. When he hears his mom approaching he quickly zoom-and-pans to the work grouping.

===The Replacement: Activities Manager===

====showstoppers====

* <strike>make the filter-search-thing work, or remove it until 4.6</strike>
* <strike>work with multiple screens. this means ensuring there's a containment for every screen, and each view is always showing the correct one. also, loading stopped activities should put the correct containments on the correct screens.</strike>

* fix all obvious multiscreen bugs
* <strike>opened() is not being emitted from the Activity instance that's connected to the activitylist. fix that (by making an activity factory?)</strike>

====functionality====
* when plasma is locked, the activitymanager runs away. it shouldn't do that; instead it should disable the add/remove buttons (and maybe stop/play too?)
* renaming is still done in the containment config. I haven't thought of a good way to do renames from the activity manager... but ivan's gonna want something for setting the icon too, and it needs to be discoverable. [note: he added the icon setting to backgrounddialog, but it requires nepomuk so I haven't seen it]
* <strike>activity icon support</strike>
* save out containments for unplugged screens, and automagically reload them again when a screen is connected
* <strike>containment still has a 'remove' action. right now this zaps the containment but leaves the activity and shows some other random containment. if plasma-desktop can kill/disable that action that'd be nice (remember it has kbd shortcut not just UI), otherwise it should do something sensible.</strike>
* should I leave the activity bar plasmoid as a hack for swapping containment-screen associations, or what? I can't (easily) make it do *actual* activities because the API's in the desktop shell.
* activity mouse plugin needs dealing with too. maybe I can make it use kactivitycontroller..?

====polish====
* <strike>a pretty little 'play' icon should be overlaid on activities that are stopped</strike>
* activity manager doesn't show which activity is the current one. some sort of pretty highlight or something would be nice.
* those remove/stop buttons could be a lot prettier. hover effects n'stuff
* random wallpaper when creating a new containment?
* <strike>when cloning a containment, clone all of it, not just the pluginname. I think we may want code in corona to support this, like we did for importLayout.</strike>
* action needs an icon
* prettify the search filter
* resize the list better when names change

====guts====
* View::swapContainment could do with cleanup like Activity::open.
* <strike>PlasmaApp::listActivities handles the migration, which means it happens when the activitymanager is opened; really this should be done as soon as all containments are loaded.</strike>
* <strike>I should make one function for associating a containment with an activity, and call that when needed (when the id changes, when it's first loaded..) to reduce code duplication</strike>
* DesktopView's nextContainment and prevContaimment should go by activity instead. or get replaced by application-level shortcuts, which could perhaps be globals..?
* we should hack something into Context so that it keeps the activity name in sync itself, instead of relying on plasmaapp while KActivity* is in kdebase
* looks like I've been adding htings to plasmaapp that belong in desktopcorona... should move them, and have Activity get a DesktopCorona*

====for 4.6====
* sorting of the activities (probably by last activation?)
* 'running'/'stopped' categories that scroll to the first running/stopped activity
* something in the panel that tells me what activity I'm on and lets me switch quickly
* should PlasmaApp listen for activity removal and purge all associated containments just-in-case? (atm the activitymanager is the only one removing them so it's not needed
* we need a tool for swapping containments around between screens (and desktops if that's enabled).

== A Fun Look At The Past ==
ZUI : Zooming User Interface

There will be 3 zoom levels (will be more like 45% and 8% to allow space between groups): 100%, 50%, and 10%. (Note: 50% fits 4 groups and 10% fits 100)

[http://www.nuno-icons.com/images/estilo/rect3048.png Mockup of 50% view] (with only 2 desktops)

===Description (initial idea)===

The idea is this: plasmoids (launchers, icons, widgets, games, mini-apps, etc) exist in groups. A group can be displayed to take up the full area of the screen. This is what one would most likely recognize as "the desktop" today. You are not, however, limited to just one full screen group. You can have several.

When you zoom out, you see these various groups and the plasmoids within them shrink to mere icons. This lets you pan around and rearrange plasmoids or pick another group (and little else).

Zoom out once more and the groups become little iconified versions of themselves and the plasmoids themselves disappear. This view lets you see all your groups at once even if you have a lot of them. pick one and you zoom in on it.

The idea is to allow one to manage collections of items by grouping them and then quickly switching between them using zoom-and-pan where zoom provides overview (lowering detail), pan provides navigation and unzoom increases detail again (implying selection of another group to use).

===Details===
=====Should plasmoids be iconified or zoomed out?=====
It is easiest to identify plasmoids when they are just scaled down.

=====Kwin integration=====
In the future, we might want to integrate this with kwin.

Chani: /* for 4.6 */

===The Replacement: Activities Manager===

====showstoppers====
* <strike>react to add/remove signals</strike>
* <strike>activitymanager should not allow deletion of the last activity</strike>
* <strike>deleting the last running activity shouldn't create orphan containments</strike>
* <strike>make the filter-search-thing work, or remove it until 4.6</strike>
* <strike>work with multiple screens. this means ensuring there's a containment for every screen, and each view is always showing the correct one. also, loading stopped activities should put the correct containments on the correct screens.</strike>
* <strike>work with multiple desktops. this will be done the same way as multiscreen. (biggest issue: migrating containments when PVD is enabled/disabled; desktop 1 (0?) <-> -1)</strike>
* <strike>STRING CHANGE: activity-per-desktop things need to be changed to say 'widget groups' or something.</strike>
* <strike>react to currentChanged signals (important for when activities are deleted)</strike>
* <strike>change activites when current is stopped</strike>
* <strike>don't let the last riunning one be stopped</strike>
* <strike>we actually do need to sync name changes, so that they stay in sync for multiscreen</strike>
* fix all obvious multiscreen bugs
* <strike>opened() is not being emitted from the Activity instance that's connected to the activitylist. fix that (by making an activity factory?)</strike>

====functionality====
* when plasma is locked, the activitymanager runs away. it shouldn't do that; instead it should disable the add/remove buttons (and maybe stop/play too?)
* renaming is still done in the containment config. I haven't thought of a good way to do renames from the activity manager... but ivan's gonna want something for setting the icon too, and it needs to be discoverable. [note: he added the icon setting to backgrounddialog, but it requires nepomuk so I haven't seen it]
* <strike>activity icon support</strike>
* save out containments for unplugged screens, and automagically reload them again when a screen is connected
* containment still has a 'remove' action. right now this zaps the containment but leaves the activity and shows some other random containment. if plasma-desktop can kill/disable that action that'd be nice (remember it has kbd shortcut not just UI), otherwise it should do something sensible.
* should I leave the activity bar plasmoid as a hack for swapping containment-screen associations, or what? I can't (easily) make it do *actual* activities because the API's in the desktop shell.

====polish====
* <strike>a pretty little 'play' icon should be overlaid on activities that are stopped</strike>
* activity manager doesn't show which activity is the current one. some sort of pretty highlight or something would be nice.
* those remove/stop buttons could be a lot prettier. hover effects n'stuff
* random wallpaper when creating a new containment?
* <strike>when cloning a containment, clone all of it, not just the pluginname. I think we may want code in corona to support this, like we did for importLayout.</strike>
* action needs an icon
* prettify the search filter
* resize the list better when names change

====guts====
* View::swapContainment could do with cleanup like Activity::open.
* <strike>PlasmaApp::listActivities handles the migration, which means it happens when the activitymanager is opened; really this should be done as soon as all containments are loaded.</strike>
* <strike>I should make one function for associating a containment with an activity, and call that when needed (when the id changes, when it's first loaded..) to reduce code duplication</strike>
* DesktopView's nextContainment and prevContaimment should go by activity instead. or get replaced by application-level shortcuts, which could perhaps be globals..?
* we should hack something into Context so that it keeps the activity name in sync itself, instead of relying on plasmaapp while KActivity* is in kdebase
* looks like I've been adding htings to plasmaapp that belong in desktopcorona... should move them, and have Activity get a DesktopCorona*

====for 4.6====
* sorting of the activities (probably by last activation?)
* 'running'/'stopped' categories that scroll to the first running/stopped activity
* something in the panel that tells me what activity I'm on and lets me switch quickly
* should PlasmaApp listen for activity removal and purge all associated containments just-in-case? (atm the activitymanager is the only one removing them so it's not needed
* we need a tool for swapping containments around between screens (and desktops if that's enabled).

== A Fun Look At The Past ==
ZUI : Zooming User Interface

There will be 3 zoom levels (will be more like 45% and 8% to allow space between groups): 100%, 50%, and 10%. (Note: 50% fits 4 groups and 10% fits 100)

[http://www.nuno-icons.com/images/estilo/rect3048.png Mockup of 50% view] (with only 2 desktops)

===Description (initial idea)===

The idea is this: plasmoids (launchers, icons, widgets, games, mini-apps, etc) exist in groups. A group can be displayed to take up the full area of the screen. This is what one would most likely recognize as "the desktop" today. You are not, however, limited to just one full screen group. You can have several.

When you zoom out, you see these various groups and the plasmoids within them shrink to mere icons. This lets you pan around and rearrange plasmoids or pick another group (and little else).

Zoom out once more and the groups become little iconified versions of themselves and the plasmoids themselves disappear. This view lets you see all your groups at once even if you have a lot of them. pick one and you zoom in on it.

The idea is to allow one to manage collections of items by grouping them and then quickly switching between them using zoom-and-pan where zoom provides overview (lowering detail), pan provides navigation and unzoom increases detail again (implying selection of another group to use).

===Details===
=====Should plasmoids be iconified or zoomed out?=====
It is easiest to identify plasmoids when they are just scaled down.

=====Kwin integration=====
In the future, we might want to integrate this with kwin.

=====Zoom levels=====
*3 Zoom levels
**Desktop
***Normal Desktop View
**Groups
***Zoomed out groups
***Around 45%
**Overview
***Zoomed out even more
***Maybe have this as a tile level (groups are lined up)

===Use Cases===

Aaron works at home. you can tell he's a happening fellow by his name. As such he does a lot of things with his computer, not just work. He separates his work from his family from his play "lives" on his computer by arranging different desktop sets. Aaron uses the zoom-and-pan to quickly switch between "work" and "family" groups during the day.

Lisa is a graphic designer. At any given time she is working on projects for 2-4 clients. she keeps the work files for each client project in a separate group, each labeled according to the project title. She also keeps the contact list for the other people she's working on the project with (copy writers, the client contact, the project manager, etc), the schedule calendar and current todo list (sync'd to the company's groupware/calendaring server) with each group. As she moves from one project to another, she zooms-and-pans to the appropriate group.

Riccardo is a 16 year old lay-about. He should be working on his chem homework but instead is playing on facebook and myspace. He has the plasmoids for different sets of friends in different groups according to clique and a grouping for his class work. When he hears his mom approaching he quickly zoom-and-pans to the work grouping.

ZUI : Zooming User Interface

There will be 3 zoom levels (will be more like 45% and 8% to allow space between groups): 100%, 50%, and 10%. (Note: 50% fits 4 groups and 10% fits 100)

[http://www.nuno-icons.com/images/estilo/rect3048.png Mockup of 50% view] (with only 2 desktops)

===Description (initial idea)===

The idea is this: plasmoids (launchers, icons, widgets, games, mini-apps, etc) exist in groups. A group can be displayed to take up the full area of the screen. This is what one would most likely recognize as "the desktop" today. You are not, however, limited to just one full screen group. You can have several.

When you zoom out, you see these various groups and the plasmoids within them shrink to mere icons. This lets you pan around and rearrange plasmoids or pick another group (and little else).

Zoom out once more and the groups become little iconified versions of themselves and the plasmoids themselves disappear. This view lets you see all your groups at once even if you have a lot of them. pick one and you zoom in on it.

The idea is to allow one to manage collections of items by grouping them and then quickly switching between them using zoom-and-pan where zoom provides overview (lowering detail), pan provides navigation and unzoom increases detail again (implying selection of another group to use).

===Details===
=====Should plasmoids be iconified or zoomed out?=====
It is easiest to identify plasmoids when they are just scaled down.

=====Kwin integration=====
In the future, we might want to integrate this with kwin.

=====Zoom levels=====
*3 Zoom levels
**Desktop
***Normal Desktop View
**Groups
***Zoomed out groups
***Around 45%
**Overview
***Zoomed out even more
***Maybe have this as a tile level (groups are lined up)

===Use Cases===

Aaron works at home. you can tell he's a happening fellow by his name. As such he does a lot of things with his computer, not just work. He separates his work from his family from his play "lives" on his computer by arranging different desktop sets. Aaron uses the zoom-and-pan to quickly switch between "work" and "family" groups during the day.

Lisa is a graphic designer. At any given time she is working on projects for 2-4 clients. she keeps the work files for each client project in a separate group, each labeled according to the project title. She also keeps the contact list for the other people she's working on the project with (copy writers, the client contact, the project manager, etc), the schedule calendar and current todo list (sync'd to the company's groupware/calendaring server) with each group. As she moves from one project to another, she zooms-and-pans to the appropriate group.

Riccardo is a 16 year old lay-about. He should be working on his chem homework but instead is playing on facebook and myspace. He has the plasmoids for different sets of friends in different groups according to clique and a grouping for his class work. When he hears his mom approaching he quickly zoom-and-pans to the work grouping.

The idea is to allow one to manage collections of items by grouping them and then quickly switching between them using zoom-and-pan where zoom provides overview (lowering detail), pan provides navigation and unzoom increases detail again (implying selection of another group to use).

===Details===
=====Should plasmoids be iconified or zoomed out?=====
It is easiest to identify plasmoids when they are just scaled down.

=====Kwin integration=====
In the future, we might want to integrate this with kwin.

=====Zoom levels=====
*3 Zoom levels
**Desktop
***Normal Desktop View
**Groups
***Zoomed out groups
***Around 45%
**Overview
***Zoomed out even more
***Maybe have this as a tile level (groups are lined up)

===Use Cases===

Aaron works at home. you can tell he's a happening fellow by his name. As such he does a lot of things with his computer, not just work. He separates his work from his family from his play "lives" on his computer by arranging different desktop sets. Aaron uses the zoom-and-pan to quickly switch between "work" and "family" groups during the day.

Lisa is a graphic designer. At any given time she is working on projects for 2-4 clients. she keeps the work files for each client project in a separate group, each labeled according to the project title. She also keeps the contact list for the other people she's working on the project with (copy writers, the client contact, the project manager, etc), the schedule calendar and current todo list (sync'd to the company's groupware/calendaring server) with each group. As she moves from one project to another, she zooms-and-pans to the appropriate group.

Riccardo is a 16 year old lay-about. He should be working on his chem homework but instead is playing on facebook and myspace. He has the plasmoids for different sets of friends in different groups according to clique and a grouping for his class work. When he hears his mom approaching he quickly zoom-and-pans to the work grouping.

===The Replacement: Activities Manager===

====showstoppers====
* <strike>react to add/remove signals</strike>
* <strike>activitymanager should not allow deletion of the last activity</strike>
* <strike>deleting the last running activity shouldn't create orphan containments</strike>
* make the filter-search-thing work, or remove it until 4.6
* <strike>work with multiple screens. this means ensuring there's a containment for every screen, and each view is always showing the correct one. also, loading stopped activities should put the correct containments on the correct screens.</strike>
* work with multiple desktops. this will be done the same way as multiscreen. (biggest issue: migrating containments when PVD is enabled/disabled; desktop 1 (0?) <-> -1)
* <strike>STRING CHANGE: activity-per-desktop things need to be changed to say 'widget groups' or something.</strike>
* react to currentChanged signals (important for when activities are deleted)
* change activites when one is stopped
* don't let the last riunning one be stopped
* we actually do need to sync name changes, so that they stay in sync for multiscreen
* fix all obvious multiscreen bugs

====functionality====
* when plasma is locked, the activitymanager runs away. it shouldn't do that; instead it should disable the add/remove buttons (and maybe stop/play too?)
* renaming is still done in the containment config. I haven't thought of a good way to do renames from the activity manager... but ivan's gonna want something for setting the icon too, and it needs to be discoverable.
* activity icon support
* save out containments for unplugged screens, and automagically reload them again when a screen is connected
* containment still has a 'remove' action. right now this zaps the containment but leaves the activity and shows some other random containment. if plasma-desktop can kill/disable that action that'd be nice (remember it has kbd shortcut not just UI), otherwise it should do something sensible.

====polish====
* <strike>a pretty little 'play' icon should be overlaid on activities that are stopped</strike>
* activity manager doesn't show which activity is the current one. some sort of pretty highlight or something would be nice.
* those remove/stop buttons could be a lot prettier. hover effects n'stuff
* random wallpaper when creating a new containment?
* when cloning a containment, clone all of it, not just the pluginname. I think we may want code in corona to support this, like we did for importLayout.
* action needs an icon

====guts====
* View::swapContainment could do with cleanup like Activity::open.
* <strike>PlasmaApp::listActivities handles the migration, which means it happens when the activitymanager is opened; really this should be done as soon as all containments are loaded.</strike>
* <strike>I should make one function for associating a containment with an activity, and call that when needed (when the id changes, when it's first loaded..) to reduce code duplication</strike>
* DesktopView's nextContainment and prevContaimment should go by activity instead. or get replaced by application-level shortcuts, which could perhaps be globals..?
* we should hack something into Context so that it keeps the activity name in sync itself, instead of relying on plasmaapp while KActivity* is in kdebase
* looks like I've been adding htings to plasmaapp that belong in desktopcorona... should move them, and have Activity get a DesktopCorona*

====for 4.6====
* sorting of the activities (probably by last activation?)
* 'running'/'stopped' categories that scroll to the first running/stopped activity
* something in the panel that tells me what activity I'm on and lets me switch quickly
* should PlasmaApp listen for activity removal and purge all associated containments just-in-case? (atm the activitymanager is the only one removing them so it's not needed

ZUI : Zooming User Interface

There will be 3 zoom levels (will be more like 45% and 8% to allow space between groups): 100%, 50%, and 10%. (Note: 50% fits 4 groups and 10% fits 100)

[http://www.nuno-icons.com/images/estilo/rect3048.png Mockup of 50% view] (with only 2 desktops)

===Description (initial idea)===

The idea is this: plasmoids (launchers, icons, widgets, games, mini-apps, etc) exist in groups. A group can be displayed to take up the full area of the screen. This is what one would most likely recognize as "the desktop" today. You are not, however, limited to just one full screen group. You can have several.

When you zoom out, you see these various groups and the plasmoids within them shrink to mere icons. This lets you pan around and rearrange plasmoids or pick another group (and little else).

Zoom out once more and the groups become little iconified versions of themselves and the plasmoids themselves disappear. This view lets you see all your groups at once even if you have a lot of them. pick one and you zoom in on it.

ZUI : Zooming User Interface

There will be 3 zoom levels (will be more like 45% and 8% to allow space between groups): 100%, 50%, and 10%. (Note: 50% fits 4 groups and 10% fits 100)

[http://www.nuno-icons.com/images/estilo/rect3048.png Mockup of 50% view] (with only 2 desktops)

===Description (initial idea)===

The idea is this: plasmoids (launchers, icons, widgets, games, mini-apps, etc) exist in groups. A group can be displayed to take up the full area of the screen. This is what one would most likely recognize as "the desktop" today. You are not, however, limited to just one full screen group. You can have several.

When you zoom out, you see these various groups and the plasmoids within them shrink to mere icons. This lets you pan around and rearrange plasmoids or pick another group (and little else).

Zoom out once more and the groups become little iconified versions of themselves and the plasmoids themselves disappear. This view lets you see all your groups at once even if you have a lot of them. pick one and you zoom in on it.

The idea is to allow one to manage collections of items by grouping them and then quickly switching between them using zoom-and-pan where zoom provides overview (lowering detail), pan provides navigation and unzoom increases detail again (implying selection of another group to use).

===Details===
=====Should plasmoids be iconified or zoomed out?=====
It is easiest to identify plasmoids when they are just scaled down.

=====Kwin integration=====
In the future, we might want to integrate this with kwin.

=====Zoom levels=====
*3 Zoom levels
**Desktop
***Normal Desktop View
**Groups
***Zoomed out groups
***Around 45%
**Overview
***Zoomed out even more
***Maybe have this as a tile level (groups are lined up)

===Use Cases===

Aaron works at home. you can tell he's a happening fellow by his name. As such he does a lot of things with his computer, not just work. He separates his work from his family from his play "lives" on his computer by arranging different desktop sets. Aaron uses the zoom-and-pan to quickly switch between "work" and "family" groups during the day.

Lisa is a graphic designer. At any given time she is working on projects for 2-4 clients. she keeps the work files for each client project in a separate group, each labeled according to the project title. She also keeps the contact list for the other people she's working on the project with (copy writers, the client contact, the project manager, etc), the schedule calendar and current todo list (sync'd to the company's groupware/calendaring server) with each group. As she moves from one project to another, she zooms-and-pans to the appropriate group.

Riccardo is a 16 year old lay-about. He should be working on his chem homework but instead is playing on facebook and myspace. He has the plasmoids for different sets of friends in different groups according to clique and a grouping for his class work. When he hears his mom approaching he quickly zoom-and-pans to the work grouping.

*STRING CHANGE: activity-per-desktop things need to be changed to say 'widget groups' or something.

====functionality====
* when plasma is locked, the activitymanager runs away. it shouldn't do that; instead it should disable the add/remove buttons (and maybe stop/play too?)
* renaming is still done in the containment config. I haven't thought of a good way to do renames from the activity manager... but ivan's gonna want something for setting the icon too, and it needs to be discoverable.
* activity icon support
* save out containments for unplugged screens, and automagically reload them again when a screen is connected
* containment still has a 'remove' action. right now this zaps the containment but leaves the activity and shows some other random containment. if plasma-desktop can kill/disable that action that'd be nice (remember it has kbd shortcut not just UI), otherwise it should do something sensible.

====polish====
* <strike>a pretty little 'play' icon should be overlaid on activities that are stopped</strike>
* activity manager doesn't show which activity is the current one. some sort of pretty highlight or something would be nice.
* those remove/stop buttons could be a lot prettier. hover effects n'stuff
* random wallpaper when creating a new containment?
* when cloning a containment, clone all of it, not just the pluginname. I think we may want code in corona to support this, like we did for importLayout.

ZUI : Zooming User Interface

There will be 3 zoom levels (will be more like 45% and 8% to allow space between groups): 100%, 50%, and 10%. (Note: 50% fits 4 groups and 10% fits 100)

[http://www.nuno-icons.com/images/estilo/rect3048.png Mockup of 50% view] (with only 2 desktops)

===Description (initial idea)===

The idea is this: plasmoids (launchers, icons, widgets, games, mini-apps, etc) exist in groups. A group can be displayed to take up the full area of the screen. This is what one would most likely recognize as "the desktop" today. You are not, however, limited to just one full screen group. You can have several.

When you zoom out, you see these various groups and the plasmoids within them shrink to mere icons. This lets you pan around and rearrange plasmoids or pick another group (and little else).

Zoom out once more and the groups become little iconified versions of themselves and the plasmoids themselves disappear. This view lets you see all your groups at once even if you have a lot of them. pick one and you zoom in on it.

The idea is to allow one to manage collections of items by grouping them and then quickly switching between them using zoom-and-pan where zoom provides overview (lowering detail), pan provides navigation and unzoom increases detail again (implying selection of another group to use).

===Details===
=====Should plasmoids be iconified or zoomed out?=====
It is easiest to identify plasmoids when they are just scaled down.

=====Kwin integration=====
In the future, we might want to integrate this with kwin.

=====Zoom levels=====

***Normal Desktop View
**Groups
***Zoomed out groups
***Around 45%

===Use Cases===

Aaron works at home. you can tell he's a happening fellow by his name. As such he does a lot of things with his computer, not just work. He separates his work from his family from his play "lives" on his computer by arranging different desktop sets. Aaron uses the zoom-and-pan to quickly switch between "work" and "family" groups during the day.

Lisa is a graphic designer. At any given time she is working on projects for 2-4 clients. she keeps the work files for each client project in a separate group, each labeled according to the project title. She also keeps the contact list for the other people she's working on the project with (copy writers, the client contact, the project manager, etc), the schedule calendar and current todo list (sync'd to the company's groupware/calendaring server) with each group. As she moves from one project to another, she zooms-and-pans to the appropriate group.

Riccardo is a 16 year old lay-about. He should be working on his chem homework but instead is playing on facebook and myspace. He has the plasmoids for different sets of friends in different groups according to clique and a grouping for his class work. When he hears his mom approaching he quickly zoom-and-pans to the work grouping.

* containment still has a 'remove' action. right now this zaps the containment but leaves the activity and I haven't tested what that actually *does*. if plasma-desktop can kill/disable that action that'd be nice (remember it has kbd shortcut not just UI), otherwise it should do something sensible.
* activitymanager should not allow deletion of the last activity
* make the filter-search-thing work, or remove it until 4.6
* keep the current activity in sync with the visible containment
* work with multiple screens. this means ensuring there's a containment for every screen; view syncing (above) should take care of the switches automagically. also, loading stopped activities should put the correct containments on the correct screens.
* work with multiple desktops. this could be done the same way as screens, or by tracking which desktopview is current and having that be sync'd with the current activity (but be careful not to break multiscreen)

====functionality====
* when plasma is locked, the activitymanager runs away. it shouldn't do that; instead it should disable the add/remove buttons (and maybe stop/play too?)
* renaming is still done in the containment config. I haven't thought of a good way to do renames from the activity manager... but ivan's gonna want something for setting the icon too, and it needs to be discoverable.
* activity icon support
* save out containments for unplugged screens, and automagically reload them again when a screen is connected

====polish====
* <strike>a pretty little 'play' icon should be overlaid on activities that are stopped</strike>
* activity manager doesn't show which activity is the current one. some sort of pretty highlight or something would be nice.
* those remove/stop buttons could be a lot prettier. hover effects n'stuff
* random wallpaper when creating a new containment?
* when cloning a containment, clone all of it, not just the pluginname. I think we may want code in corona to support this, like we did for importLayout.
* action needs an icon

====guts====
* View::swapContainment could do with cleanup like Activity::open.
* PlasmaApp::listActivities handles the migration, which means it happens when the activitymanager is opened; really this should be done as soon as all containments are loaded.
* I should make one function for associating a containment with an activity, and call that when needed (when the id changes, when it's first loaded..) to reduce code duplication

Aaron uses the zoom-and-pan to quickly switch between "work" and "family" groups during the day.

Lisa is a graphic designer. At any given time she is working on projects for 2-4 clients. she keeps the work files for each client project in a separate group, each labeled according to the project title. She also keeps the contact list for the other people she's working on the project with (copy writers, the client contact, the project manager, etc), the schedule calendar and current todo list (sync'd to the company's groupware/calendaring server) with each group. As she moves from one project to another, she zooms-and-pans to the appropriate group.

Riccardo is a 16 year old lay-about. He should be working on his chem homework but instead is playing on facebook and myspace. He has the plasmoids for different sets of friends in different groups according to clique and a grouping for his class work. When he hears his mom approaching he quickly zoom-and-pans to the work grouping.

* containment still has a 'remove' action. right now this zaps the containment but leaves the activity and I haven't tested what that actually *does*. if plasma-desktop can kill/disable that action that'd be nice (remember it has kbd shortcut not just UI), otherwise it should do something sensible.
* activitymanager should not allow deletion of the last activity
* make the filter-search-thing work, or remove it until 4.6
* keep the current activity in sync with the visible containment
* work with multiple screens. this means ensuring there's a containment for every screen; view syncing (above) should take care of the switches automagically. also, loading stopped activities should put the correct containments on the correct screens.
* work with multiple desktops. this could be done the same way as screens, or by tracking which desktopview is current and having that be sync'd with the current activity (but be careful not to break multiscreen)

====functionality====

* renaming is still done in the containment config. I haven't thought of a good way to do renames from the activity manager... but ivan's gonna want something for setting the icon too, and it needs to be discoverable.

ZUI : Zooming User Interface

There will be 3 zoom levels (will be more like 45% and 8% to allow space between groups): 100%, 50%, and 10%. (Note: 50% fits 4 groups and 10% fits 100)

[http://www.nuno-icons.com/images/estilo/rect3048.png Mockup of 50% view] (with only 2 desktops)

===Description (initial idea)===

The idea is this: plasmoids (launchers, icons, widgets, games, mini-apps, etc) exist in groups. A group can be displayed to take up the full area of the screen. This is what one would most likely recognize as "the desktop" today. You are not, however, limited to just one full screen group. You can have several.

When you zoom out, you see these various groups and the plasmoids within them shrink to mere icons. This lets you pan around and rearrange plasmoids or pick another group (and little else).

Zoom out once more and the groups become little iconified versions of themselves and the plasmoids themselves disappear. This view lets you see all your groups at once even if you have a lot of them. pick one and you zoom in on it.

The idea is to allow one to manage collections of items by grouping them and then quickly switching between them using zoom-and-pan where zoom provides overview (lowering detail), pan provides navigation and unzoom increases detail again (implying selection of another group to use).

===Details===
=====Should plasmoids be iconified or zoomed out?=====
It is easiest to identify plasmoids when they are just scaled down.

=====Kwin integration=====
In the future, we might want to integrate this with kwin.

=====Zoom levels=====
*3 Zoom levels
**Desktop
***Normal Desktop View
**Groups
***Zoomed out groups
***Around 45%
**Overview
***Zoomed out even more
***Maybe have this as a tile level (groups are lined up)

The idea is to allow one to manage collections of items by grouping them and then quickly switching between them using zoom-and-pan where zoom provides overview (lowering detail), pan provides navigation and unzoom increases detail again (implying selection of another group to use).

===Details===
=====Should plasmoids be iconified or zoomed out?=====
It is easiest to identify plasmoids when they are just scaled down.

=====Kwin integration=====
In the future, we might want to integrate this with kwin.

=====Zoom levels=====
*3 Zoom levels
**Desktop
***Normal Desktop View
**Groups
***Zoomed out groups
***Around 45%
**Overview
***Zoomed out even more
***Maybe have this as a tile level (groups are lined up)

===Use Cases===

Aaron works at home. you can tell he's a happening fellow by his name. As such he does a lot of things with his computer, not just work. He separates his work from his family from his play "lives" on his computer by arranging different desktop sets. Aaron uses the zoom-and-pan to quickly switch between "work" and "family" groups during the day.

Lisa is a graphic designer. At any given time she is working on projects for 2-4 clients. she keeps the work files for each client project in a separate group, each labeled according to the project title. She also keeps the contact list for the other people she's working on the project with (copy writers, the client contact, the project manager, etc), the schedule calendar and current todo list (sync'd to the company's groupware/calendaring server) with each group. As she moves from one project to another, she zooms-and-pans to the appropriate group.

Riccardo is a 16 year old lay-about. He should be working on his chem homework but instead is playing on facebook and myspace. He has the plasmoids for different sets of friends in different groups according to clique and a grouping for his class work. When he hears his mom approaching he quickly zoom-and-pans to the work grouping.

Chani: /* The Replacement: Activities Manager */

===The Replacement: Activities Manager===

====showstoppers====
* react to add/remove signals (both plasmaapp and the activitymanager)
* containment still has a 'remove' action. right now this zaps the containment but leaves the activity and I haven't tested what that actually *does*. if plasma-desktop can kill/disable that action that'd be nice (remember it has kbd shortcut not just UI), otherwise it should do something sensible.
* activitymanager should not allow deletion of the last activity
* the filter bar doesn't work. we were going to have the 'running'/'stopped' buttons scroll to the appropriate place instead of filter, btw; that implies having them sorted, too. nobody will ever find...
* keep the current activity in sync with the visible containment
* work with multiple screens. this means ensuring there's a containment for every screen; view syncing (above) should take care of the switches automagically. also, loading stopped activities should put the correct containments on the correct screens.
* work with multiple desktops. this could be done the same way as screens, or by tracking which desktopview is current and having that be sync'd with the current activity (but be careful not to break multiscreen)

functionality:
* when plasma is locked, the activitymanager runs away. it shouldn't do that; instead it should disable the add/remove buttons (and maybe stop/play too?)
* renaming is still done in the containment config. I haven't thought of a good way to do renames from the activity manager... but ivan's gonna want something for setting the icon too; I told him I don't want it hidden away in some kcm
* activity icon support
* save out containments for unplugged screens, and automagically reload them again when a screen is connected

polish:
* <strike>a pretty little 'play' icon should be overlaid on activities that are stopped</strike>
* activity manager doesn't show which activity is the current one. some sort of pretty highlight or something would be nice.
* those remove/stop buttons could be a lot prettier. hover effects n'stuff

ZUI : Zooming User Interface

There will be 3 zoom levels (will be more like 45% and 8% to allow space between groups): 100%, 50%, and 10%. (Note: 50% fits 4 groups and 10% fits 100)

[http://www.nuno-icons.com/images/estilo/rect3048.png Mockup of 50% view] (with only 2 desktops)

===Description (initial idea)===

The idea is this: plasmoids (launchers, icons, widgets, games, mini-apps, etc) exist in groups. A group can be displayed to take up the full area of the screen. This is what one would most likely recognize as "the desktop" today. You are not, however, limited to just one full screen group. You can have several.

When you zoom out, you see these various groups and the plasmoids within them shrink to mere icons. This lets you pan around and rearrange plasmoids or pick another group (and little else).

Zoom out once more and the groups become little iconified versions of themselves and the plasmoids themselves disappear. This view lets you see all your groups at once even if you have a lot of them. pick one and you zoom in on it.
