Welcome
Welcome to netymon's development repository. Here you can track our development of kowari, and anything else that we release publicly. A major goal is to provide better feedback to users of kowari of the current state of the regression tests, and the current stability of the various builds.
Development Tracking
It the table below will probably make more sense if you understand how we develop code. We generally work towards achieving specific proposals (often informal, but always there). We structure my work on these proposals around the concepts of baselines, mergepoints, and completions.
- Baseline
- A baseline is a clean, working build of the codebase which forms our starting point when developing a new major feature. When we start work on a development proposal we identify a baseline against which we will develop. We will be posting these baselines here referenced against the relevant proposal, and you will find them marked in green in the development track below.
- Mergepoint
- A mergepoint is where we have determined that a new feature, bugfix, or development is sufficiently stable to be merged into a community repository. The feature may not work, but it doesn't break tests, and it 'does no harm'. Note that this tree is almost certainly out of sync with the main development tree, consequently we will then merge back into the main tree, and establish a new baseline for continued development on the proposal.
- Completion
- Eventually development of a proposal will be completed. The features are implemented, tested, (and hopefully documented). Regression tests are once again at 100% and any of the proposal that isn't working yet has been considered and deliberately deferred to a subsequent proposal (or possibly determined undesirable). This is naturally a mergepoint, however it is also a completion. Mergepoints are good places for other developers, or experimental users to play with new features. Completions are good places for normal users to evaluate and tryout new features.
