0962 is up next

Dear all,

We created some plugin. It is good news for user other than the English area.
If you use this plugin, you can change "default setlocale" with your country’s it.
I contributed to Resource Repository, but especially, I want core members to know this.
(http://modxcms.com/Locale-Setting-1956.html)

The "setlocale" of MODx is en with default, now.
Therefore, snippets(for example, Jot) which do not have language file can not output the date based on a locale correctly.
This plugin solves it. This plugin will work to all languages.



We want you to include this opinion in the next modx.

Sincerely yours,
MEGU

P.S.
> MotSmart,
We translated sample contents into the native language.
Probably, by changing a few installers, it is installable.
But we are not still completing it.

I’m not sure I understand the question, can you clarify please?

How did i missed this?, I meant that when someone got some idea and a way to realize, why not to let the ideas growth?, actually it was no question, in Persian we call it reminding word, to boost the flow of fine energy.

Thats what we did for Persian community, logically it is not so complex to overcome, but how to write that logic is an issue! . Thanks!

I think in the future all "core projects" will require the ability to easily template via chunks and config files, so I’d love to see Ajaxsearch support this ASAP

Ok, but when will be delivered the 0.9.6.2 ? How many time I have to do these improvements before a new delivery ?

We’re reviewing everything now. If you need a few days to knock something out feel free to do so, but don’t take the 0962 release as a limiting factor or a demand for you to do so. We tremendously appreciate your hard work and major improvements!

There’s always the next point-release.

I am currently working on a new snipppet (which could interest some other persons). As soon as finished, i will come back to ajaxSearch and try to deliver on time the templating features.
Regarding the 0.9.6.2 don’t forget the improvement suggestions made with Shane about the installer.

Is there any updated regarding i18n to 0.9.6.2?

0962 is up to next ... Is it always planned to deliver a version 0962 ?

Yes, I would liked to have delivered it last month. I’ll see what can be done about wrapping this up asap, but I can’t promise I have time to do more than help merge it into trunk and prepare the build packages. So if someone could help step up to coordinate/confirm the current 0.9.6 branch is ready for release as 0.9.6.2, I’ll be happy to finish it off. Help?!

Not sure, but from MODx tracker the status of bugs are the following:
26 bugs opened for 0.9.6.2
Severity: 13 with severity hight, 7 medium and 7 low
Status: Implemented 3, Confirmed 2, Require testing 10, Waiting on user 2, Researching 3, Assigned 3, unconfirmed 3

So if these indicators are relevant, we are not really ready to release this new 0.9.6.2
In addition of this bug fixing activity which still remains, I would like that the installer improvement proposed in april with Shane will be boarded in this new release. Improvement describe in crucible

IMHO, I think is it important to release this last version which will runs probably in parrallel of the 0.9.7 version, the time of all add_ons will be ported on XPDO

Help?!

If I am right, 26 bugs should be examined, so this require a faster and an important involvement of all "testing & QA" and "coding" contributors to solve these last bugs. Otherwise, we will discuss of this release again in few months. >:( Is it possible ? Who has some availabilities to work on this release ?

Thanks Coroico for the update work

You make valid points, now let’s go positive and move forward.

I think this raises the issue of how we get organized since we’ll have to work on two branches. Sure Jason, Shaun and everyone working hard on 0.9.7 can’t be expected to carry the 0.9.6.x branch as well. It’s not my area at all, but who would like (and would be able) to take leadership for the 0.9.6 branch ?

One question comes to mind about bug tracking : shouldn’t FlySpray be purged of everything 0.9.7 since we moved to a new infrastructure ? Second question, does 0.9.6.x bug tracking still remains @FlySpray or will it too be switch over to JIRA ?

I think we need to "gather the troups", clarify those items above, call for volunteers, define who does what for the 0.9.6. branch now that 0.9.7 is pretty much on tracks to the much awaited Beta.

I think it’s somewhat of an important team restructuration and deserves a new thread in the team boards.

Now about helping 0.9.6.x : I can help with the testing part and investigate, but as you know I’ll be worthless to offer any code What I can do is help set things in motion (write up an announcement once I get the fact straight), contact people and help convince to commit. Internal marketing, so to speak...
