January Mini Summit

The January 2009 Mini Summit is currently scheduled for January 17 and 18, 2009 and will be held via IRC and the mailing list.

Summit Agenda

Until January 12, 2009, consider this list to be subject to change. Feel free to add your own ideas.

Finish Wiki Migration and Reorganization

We need to come up with a way to reorganize the new wiki and finish up the migration.

Reorganize QuickieTasks into a "Tasks" section

The QuickieTasks section should be reorganized into a larger Tasks section of the wiki. The idea here is to give people with time and skills a direction to move towards. Ideally this new section would contain implementation ideas for all of the features we discuss on the mailing list. For an example, see PartialPull.

Concurrent Access to a Single Monotone Database

This has been discussed a few times, I'm not sure if a solution has already come up. A few ideas on this topic have been floating around for a while. As far as I'm concerned, I'd like to have one database file to which I sync from my workstation or laptop, and have another process (viewmtn or a self written PHP equivalent) accessing that database at the same time. Maybe for this specific problem there could be other solutions (besides mtn automate) than concurrently accessing the repository on the database/sqlite level.

Integrating a 'branch rename' Command

Currently I have a shell script available which was posted on the Monotone Wiki some time ago. With future changes to monotone it maybe uncertain how long that script will keep working. Next point is, one does always need to have that script available, since renamings must happen on all affected locations. Therefore, and as I have to use branch renaming quite often, it would be nice if that function could be integrated into the mtn binary.

Scratch Your Itch Here

Feel free to work on whatever you feel like working on during the summit. Please make your intentions known here.
