[Plugtest-org] orvieto talks

[Hanssens Bart]

Well, we really must take care that the participants upload their files
and note down their findings (not sure about the IPR though, now it's
clear that editing or uploading files to the wiki makes it public domain)

At the end of the day, I'd still want it on the wiki (one, central location),
although I don't mind having 1 (one) other file sharing service available
(SkyDrive, GoogleDrive, whatever) during the event if people really
don't like the upload tool of the wiki.

If people want to use Twitter, that's just fine, as long as they collect
their tweets at the end of the session and at least add a raw copy to the
wiki themselves...


Best regards,

Bart

A crazy idea:

What if, instead of using the wiki for tracking the plugfest test results,
we did it all via Twitter?  I think with some conventions for describing
the test cases, such as abbreviated product names, we could describe most
findings in 140 characters or less.

For example:  "formula-1.ods/OO32: DBLookUp() fails with empty range"

Then, after the plugfest we can transcribe the findings into a more
tabular form for the wiki, or in JIRA, or whatever.

We'd also need an ftp server for uploading test files.

The advantage of Twitter and ftp is it would allow some level of
participation even by those who were not able to travel to Orvieto.  But
even for people just following it would give some sense of the level of
activity that is occurring.  In fact we could have  the twitter feed
projected live in the room, so we could all immediately see what was being
found.

Louis,

ok, no problem, I'll be stand-in for the round-ups if needed :-)


Best regards

Thanks, Bart.
One thing: As I also have responsibilities (so they tell me) regarding
OOo, and am on several committees meeting prior to OOoCon and thus
coincident with the plugfest, I may not be able to do the roundup. The
schedule of these committees has not been set yet, so hope springs
eternal.
