=== Sheriffing === | |||
[UK public holiday Monday 7th, so edmorley won't be present at the meeting] | |||
* [edmorley] Sheriffing the trees (starring, filing new oranges, backouts backouts & more backouts, tree closures, merging inbound/fx-team/m-c, marking bugs post merges). | |||
* [edmorley] Chasing up/having to work around: buildapi not properly triggering PGO builds ({{bug|750611}}), inbound clobberer timing out/form submission broken ({{bug|749081}}). | |||
* [edmorley] Dreaded Windows OOM whilst linking came back. Filed {{bug|750661}} for getting workarounds started so the tree could be reopened. Coordinated with build peers, releng & other sheriffs. Peak PGO linker values are not sent to graphserver so resorted to collating last month's worth of values via log inspection ({{bug|710840}}). Fixed {{bug|750717}}, so that the pgo linker output shows up on TBPL, instead of having to manually inspect each log. Thanks to Ehsan & a few others, we managed to get the tree finally reopened in a day and a half :-) Rough extrapolation implies that the workarounds [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=750661#c15 may only last a month], so {{bug|709480}} is still needed urgently. | |||
* [edmorley] Dealing with CPG landing bustage since bholley/luke/jst didn't want it backed out and were afk for the day (perma-purple {{bug|751575}}, almost perma-orange of {{bug|738803}}). | |||
* [edmorley] Sheriff policy discussions with Ehsan/Matt/Marco/Philor regarding backouts and whether patch authors should be emailed outside of bugzilla in addition to the bug comments, after an email from a dev who was backed out. | |||
=== War on Orange === | === War on Orange === | ||
* [edmorley] Now that OrangeFactor collecting data properly again, went through the last week's worth of top oranges, CC'ing devs to bugs with no-one CC'd. Also started pinging developers on IRC for the most frequent orange/purples, particularly the ones that have to be starred by hand due to no TBPL suggestions (and that take up a lot more of my time). Seems to be working already - a fair few oranges fixed in the last week (plus more with patches pending review): [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/buglist.cgi?resolution=FIXED;status_whiteboard_type=allwordssubstr;chfieldto=Now;query_format=advanced;chfield=resolution;chfieldfrom=2012-04-30;chfieldvalue=FIXED;status_whiteboard=orange Fixed since Mon 30th] | |||
* [edmorley] Hounded a new intermittent orange out of the tree ({{bug|747857}}), as part of us being more proactive in not letting new tests stay in the tree if they are flaky from the very start. | |||

=== Notes === | |||
* Mozbase Modules | |||
** Wouldn't mind the change and it would solve the "can't install trunk of mozbase" | |||
** Could solve some problems and cause others | |||
** Seems like it is something that comes up when people first use mozbase and later you don't hear about it again | |||
** honestly there are many many other things to fix on Mozbase rather than this. | |||
** Action: leave things as they stand, and work on it with a complete versioning solution in another quarter. | |||
* Highlight Section | |||
** Do what we did today. | |||
** Easier than reading the wiki during the meeting. | |||
** And having people modify the wiki on their own seemed to work well too. | |||

Ctalbert will write down the new project later this week, ping him if interested! | |||
