how I want to handle things

• handle all small tasks as they come in.
• aim for release every two weeks, with the queues outlined below
• try to stay on track with the expected release dates and catch up if get behind
• eliminate ASS/fgdiag/etc todo lists so can focus on fgdb.rb

not fgdb

• make the vnc laptop more magic
  • have it restart networking before connecting each time, and set up /etc/network/interface like my laptop to use wired if plugged in then fall back to wireless
    • don't pass -C to the ssh that the data goes through when wired
  • run a sound daemon on the laptop and forward it to blip with ssh port forwarding, then add a with-laptop-sound wrapper script (so run "with-laptop-sound totem") on blip that will set the env vars correctly. also run ssh on the localhost interface on the laptop and port forward that too (so I can get to alsamixer somehow). make a with-laptop-alsamixer script to "ssh laptop alsamixer".
  • when catching an error, give the option to restart networking, drop into a shell, retry, or abort. (and loop until abort or success)
• other todos
  • get caps lock fixed on blip and ryan52-lappy
  • get a normal ssh key on blip

queue + 3

• #17255 overtime report

• Replace SOAP usage with [1]

queue + 4

• #14861 swap computers (tech support)
• I WANT A TEST SUITE
• db cleanups
  • gizmo_types.effective_on has a silly default
  • workers.contact_id needs to be unique
  • users.contact_id needs to be unique
  • flatten contact_method_types (add a category)
  • created_at should be NOT NULL
• changes to the contact widget
  • need to think this through.
  • should take these tickets into account:
    • #13061 auto search for contacts when creating a contact

junk

• go through remaining trac tickets:
  • fgdb.rb tickets
  • skedjulnator tickets
• old TODO list
• my crazy ideas that will just make fgdb.rb that much more awesome
  • #16514 create a plugin that will improve partial updates (by freezing attributes)
  • #16513 create a plugin which will make records associated by has_many (optionally?) saved when the parent record is saved
    • looks like it's already in rails itself... :autosave
      • need to test though. and why did none of the sites that I found in the process of figuring this out show it?
• release utilities
  • get continuation to work with multiple branches
  • get continuation running with test-migrate
  • the auto-update script is connected to my home dir (because of the devel checkout), but it shouldn't be.
    • use multiple working copies from the production checkout: http://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/git/2007/10/11/335637
    • or just create a dbadmin user on arik
      • benefit of possibility of having a key connected to devo.
    • update Committing to FGdb after that.
  • I want all changes on a release_X.X.X branch (after the initial branch) to get their own tag. this would involve running ./script/mini-release (new script?) when making a direct change, and this would affect the output of ./script/version. mini-release would also close the ticket(s) (by pushing the tag, I guess). also, this would mean that pushes on release_X.X.X branches wouldn't close the tickets. this would also affect the changelog workflow probably.
• I wonder, could we have root mail go to an RT queue.

laptop todo

• fix scrolling with touchpad
• install fix for https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/206511
  • then remove the exit 0 in /etc/acpi/lid.sh so that xscreensaver can work on lid close
