Just as an effort to take stock of the current workload and to create a kind of long sprint towards releasing a stable and readily demonstrable release of the party module, these are the issues that it seems that, once resolved, we *may* be able to put out an alpha release!

Priority: Normal » Major

Changing priority. Please provide feedback - I'm glad to add or remove items from the list! This is focused on a Minimum Viable Product for a stable release of party.

Looks scarily comprehensive to me.

All hands on deck! Get to your patching stations! :D

Indeed! Might be high time to organize a regular sprint (I'll help)

Ah man!!! That is awesome!

rerooting, we (Andrew belcher, rlmumford, yautja_cetanu) from common nonsense are planning on organizing a proper sprint. I'm trying to research locations but I'm feeling possibly edinburgh to make things easy for Joachim. But maybe somewhere else will be better. I'll write up something on CRM-API group about it.

I think its also high time we have another Party Skype meeting :D

I'm actually hailing from the states but I would be glad to myself attend and encourage others to attend remotely. I would love to know who else from the states is involved in this initiative, and see where a geographic rallying point would work as well. I'm also glad to do a skype meeting :)

Also, another interesting thing for remote collaboration is the new release of Cloud 9 that allows for live collaborative pair programming. We use Cloud9 quite often for node development but haven't tried it with drupal. Something along these lines may be handy for a global sprint if one were to organize one!

My immediate battle plan is:

#1669744: pieces aren't checked for access
#1669758: add entity link in party_menu_local_tasks_alter() doesn't consider singleton/cardinality
#1669982: Data Set Actions System

as always, people are welcome to beat me to them :D
(assign things to yourself if working on them.)

added several tasks from joachim's tasklist

rerooting commented

Sounds good! I've added them to the list just so that we can all be on the same page about what needs to be tackled. I'm beginning to feel the categories aren't perfect, but they seem to be good enough for now!

FYI I am using this format : [ #issuenumber@ ] which shows the assigned user next to it. Thus, any issue that doesn't have an assigned user next to them does not have the task assigned to them, so if you are working on something, assign it!

I'll be frank - I am a BA/PM and frontend developer - not much for module development. I can read but cannot write code. Currently setting up time slots for one or more of our developers to jump in. To be frank, the level of complexity is pretty deep with this module, so they will need to learn a lot more re: EntityAPI controllers and whatnot to make this happen. One of our developers has spent a lot of time with entity_access and permissions stuff and thus may be able to contribute to those areas which are pretty high priority to us.

I am really here to help test, document and organize work and contribute where it's helpful. Let me know if I get in the way!

> To be frank, the level of complexity is pretty deep with this module

There's quite a few cleanup issues, or some that touch only a small part of the system. Some are tagged as such, probably not all.

joachim commented

The tag for easier to tackle issues is: http://drupal.org/project/issues/search/party?issue_tags=crm%20get%20inv...

Also, there are a few UI issues that could use with input.

joachim commented

I'm not going to be around very much the next couple of days, but will be back at my desk on Friday when I hope to blitz the issue queue once again :)

There's quite a few issues that need ideas / use cases / opinions / general feedback, so if interested parties* could have a look through and comment on those that would be great!

* no pun intended.

rerooting’s picture

rerooting commented

Indeed, ill be sure to go through and do that where I can and add some more items to that tag. Had some of our devs look through it and many of the items are fixed already.

If there are any other more advanced developers who will be looking through the queue, please tag the low hanging fruit with crm_get_involved if you can handle the more advanced issues.

I would love to go through and clean up and mark duplicates where necessary as well. Would be great to get the total open issue load under 100 at the very least here soon.

Might need to make an 'issues clean up' task seperately.
