[[!meta title="Iteration planning: May 8th"]]
[[!tag meeting]]
[[!meta date="2021-05-08 17:00"]]
[[!toc levels=2]]
# Review of actions from last meeting
- Dan remains not in a position to work on [[!issue 22]], which is
fine, it can wait until he is able to help. We're carrying this
action
- We moved subplot and subplot-web to the new organisation on gitlab.
# Review of the iteration that has ended
We made good progress on [[!milestone 27]].
We achieved:
- [[!issue 189]] - Warning on use for split binaries
- [[!issue 185]] - reference test failure fix
- [[!issue 183]] - missing build dependencies
- [[!issue 178]] - CI for merge requests
- [[!issue 176]] - rename sp-filter binary
- [[!issue 127]] - better logging of context dicts
We did not complete:
- [[!issue 182]] - test suite was writing into `share/` - this is in progress,
Lars has pushed a branch (`check`) and Daniel will take a look in the next
iteration.
- [[!issue 181]] - can't run subplot from different directory.
There is [[!mr 163]] open for this. Lars had a comment, we'll finish this
up in the next iteration.
- [[!issue 173]] - Tables causing docgen failure.
Daniel pushed a change which nominally covers this in the previous iteration,
but this requires recompiling subplot. We had a discussion during the
iteration meeting and closed this.
- [[!issue 118]] - Checking and updating docs for use-case. Lars has started to
think about this. We had a chat about what we might want the use-case to be,
and Lars suggested web-site check. Perhaps we can do this against
subplot.liw.fi?
- [[!issue 22]] - This holds for now.
We started but did not make much progress on [[!issue 177]] (no docker image for
using subplot). Daniel doesn't think this is particularly useful at this time,
and Lars agreed. For now we're putting this back to someday-maybe.
# Review of the repositories
There were no pending merge requests for subplot-web. There is one MR in subplot
outstanding wrt. `resources: Use new path checking order` ([[!mr 163]]). There
is the `check` branch Lars pushed for Daniel to look at later.
We discussed [[!mr 163]] and Lars decided to accept the current env var name of
`FALLBACK_PATH` and so merged the MR.
# Issue review
Subplot-web has no open issues.
We reviewed all open issues last time, so we only did recent issues this time
around. Where we made changes, see below.
- [[!issue 179]] (When I run, in blahdir,... for Rust) - tentatively added to
next iteration
- [[!issue 184]] (issue templates) - tentatively added to the next iteration
- [[!issue 187]] (README updates) - tentatively added to the next iteration
- [[!issue 188]] (subplot libraries - redo with simple bindings) - added `someday-maybe`
- [[!issue 163]] (tracking - single binary) - We ticked box 2 and agreed that
box 3 needs doing. We created [[!issue 192]] to do this.
- [[!issue 190]] (check/CI slow) - We added a comment about a good first step
(measurement) and labelled the issue appropriately
- [[!issue 191]] (subplot export) - We reworked the title and description and we
labelled it up for work at some future time.
# Current goal
Our current goal is to get Subplot the software and project into such
a shape that we feel confident that we can ask a few people to give it
a proper try. This requires for Subplot to have releases that are easy
to install, tolerably easy to use, and to have at least some
rudimentary documentation aimed at beginners.
# Plan for next iteration
We created [[!milestone 28]] for the iteration starting now and ending
in two weeks on 2021-05-22.
We agreed with the assignments we had made in the review period, and we kept
[[!issue 22]] in case Dan turns up.
# What do we need to persuade others?
Nothing new came up. We're making progress, though.
# Other business
## Subplot organisation on Gitlab
We are fairly happy with how this went (Indeed Lars is considering doing
similarly for Obnam).
## Using Gitlab CI pipelines for subplot
Unobtrusive and functioning - we're happy with them
# Actions
- Lars or Daniel to schedule pairing session with Dan to help him work
through [[!issue 22]].
