[14:20:43 EST(-0500)] * jayshao (n=jayshao@jayshao.oirt.rutgers.edu) has joined ##uportal
[14:21:04 EST(-0500)] <jayshao> I heard portlet rendering and actions are mostly working (smile)
[14:21:12 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> yup
[14:21:23 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> I'm working on error channel support n ow
[14:21:33 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> since portlets need a bit more in the refresh/reset handling
[14:21:52 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> after that is syncing the states/modes to the theme parameters
[14:22:13 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> and if all that goes well I should be able to do the milestone tomorrow afternoon
[14:22:37 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> ChannelManager has gotten quite a bit of work done on it
[14:25:13 EST(-0500)] <jayshao> actually I've been wanting to prettify the default markup returned by the error channel for a while
[14:25:20 EST(-0500)] <jayshao> would be a nice visible bit to ship with a 3.0 release
[14:25:29 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> well you have 2 to 3 week
[14:25:31 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> weeks
[14:25:45 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> and yes it would be great
[14:25:52 EST(-0500)] <jayshao> what date's m/rc.next?
[14:26:06 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> well my goal is a milestone tomorrow
[14:26:24 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> then I only have a few big things left to do
[14:26:47 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> primarly adding support in CChannelManager for portlets
[14:27:06 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> once that is done I'd be seriously looking at a RC
[14:27:11 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> which should be feature complete
[14:27:17 EST(-0500)] <jayshao> this is M5 tomorrow?
[14:27:28 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> so I'd say 25th/31st for RC
[14:27:29 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> yes
[14:27:34 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> I sure hope so at least
[14:27:42 EST(-0500)] <jayshao> I'm crunched until 1/10 with a Sakai 2.5 upgrade
[14:27:50 EST(-0500)] <jayshao> though if all goes will, I might have some time afterwards
[14:27:55 EST(-0500)] <jayshao> hoping all goes well
[14:28:08 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> (smile)
[14:30:55 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> actually with some of the other tweaking I'm going to be doing ChannelManager may actually be threadsafe
[14:31:11 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> on a per-request basis
[14:43:19 EST(-0500)] <jayshao> heh, only a problem if you're in the 1/10,000 unlucky range (wink)
[14:43:34 EST(-0500)] <jayshao> of course, I have twins, so I'll skip playing odds if I can...
[14:44:28 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> lol
[14:54:58 EST(-0500)] <esm> EricDalquist: remember the time you were trying to get a date using backticks in a crontab
[14:55:10 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> yeah
[14:55:26 EST(-0500)] <esm> you have to escape the % sign with a backslash (??????)
[14:55:36 EST(-0500)] <esm> export DATE=`/bin/date +%F_%H-%M` ; /usr/bin/pg_dump v -o -U dspace dspace | /bin/gzip -9 > /mnt/backup/dspace-dump$DATE.gz
[14:55:39 EST(-0500)] <EricDalquist> weird
[14:55:42 EST(-0500)] <esm> yeah
