[parted-devel] GNU fdisk 0.9.4
I am very happy to announce another release of GNU fdisk. This release is numbered 0.9.4 (still marking its closeness to production stability while emphasizing that it hasn't been tested by a large audience yet). Description === GNU fdisk aims to replace various UNIX operating systems' legacy partitioning tools with libparted-based ones that mimic the interface of those tools. Currently implemented alternatives are: o util-linux ``fdisk'' o util-linux ``cfdisk'' Changes === Fixed bug in configure.ac that prevented users without 'check' from compiling. Download Gzipped and b2zipped tarballs are available from ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/fdisk/ and its mirror sites. SHA1 sums may be found there as well.

[parted-devel] Thinking about stepping down
Dear friends, I have been unable to fulfill my duties as maintainer of GNU Parted in full for the past few weeks and, due to overwhelming work, will most likely not be able to do so in the future. Thus I currently seriously consider stepping down. In this case I might still participate as developer (the partition guessing thing is still nagging at me), but that's all there will be to it. If you have serious objections, please say so. Otherwise, I will notify RMS of my decision. Thank you.

[parted-devel] Deprecation method
Hello folks, and esp. Otavio, the __deprecated method to mark deprecation is good, but I fear it won't suffice for the partition guessing stuff (and everywhere else where signatures or semantics of functions have changed without changing the name). For example, 1.8 will return a zero or a one in the file system probe function. 2.0 will presumably return an integer between 0 and 100. When using a macro, we can have flexible semantics for legacy apps and new semantics for upgraded apps.

Maybe would be better just break the compilation compatibility and write a documentation explaning what has been change and how to port the old application to the new code. Yeah, that sounds reasonable. But how will you detect that the user hasn't adapted?

Re: [parted-devel] Call for organization
Hello David, thanks for your informative mail. Here's my statement: On Fri, Dec 08, 2006 at 11:24:32AM -0500, David Cantrell wrote: DESCRIPTION The GNU Parted project is an open source disk partitioning utility primarily geared towards Linux, Is it? How can you support this statement? 1) libparted API overhaul. Inconsistent function naming has caused confusion for some developers. Functions will be renamed to follow a defined naming pattern (for example, see libglib). Functions we come across that are no longer necessary, toss. Yeah. That's the place where the Wiki comes in. 2) Python bindings for libparted. An external project currently, the pyparted project provides a 1-to-1 mapping to libparted interfaces from C to Python. This allows Python developers access to libparted functions, but not in the most elegant manner. A rewrite of pyparted to offer an object oriented API as well as the traditional 1-to-1 interface is planned, with eventual inclusion in to the GNU parted project code base. I wonder if we really need this, and whether a shell-based interface wouldn't be easier _and_ appeal to a larger audience. 3) Full API documentation. Probably using doxygen since it can generate nicely formatted API docs. Some functions have nothing written for them, other functions do. This needs to be finished up and docs need to be provided for libparted. Most stuff is either self-explanatory or has docs. A tutorial introduction and frameworking explanantions are needed, not much more. 4) Unit testing framework. Otavio's working right on this, but I don't know who will code all the tests. It seems a lot of work. I originally planned to pay someone to do it via bounties, but as long as we haven't received the donation I have applied for, this obviously won't work out. 5) At the same time, removing the homegrown filesystem code and using the filesystem libraries that are already out there will remove some unnecessary work in libparted. That's a blanket statement. For example, Parted has most likely the best FAT implementation there is. 1) Project Leader. Pretty much self explanatory. Responsible for overall project. This person should be an experienced C coder as contribution to parted is expected as well as patch review. This person should also have an interest in leading the project and handling those aspects. 2) Infrastructure Lead. Responsible for all of the IT-type things for the project. The revision control system, the mailing list, the web site, and other things. This person should be an experienced sysadmin and knowledgeable with version control systems. 3) Maintainer. A maintainer would be in charge of a specific branch. We have 1.8.x set up as our stable branch and then we have the edge branch which, I assume, we'll make releases off of for testing. The maintainer is also a contributor, but is the final person who wraps everything up for release and makes the release. We already have people filling those positions, and it's working fine (at least that's my impression). I would really appreciate it if Anant took up the lead in position 2), since that would free me from all the stuff that keeps me from producing code and reviewing patches as throughly as I should. I have a personal interest in continuing to be the representative person for Parted, but, basically, I'd be content with the developer position if someone objects to it. 4) Contributor. Everyone else who regularly contributes to the project, but is not one of the above positions is considered a contributor. Contributors can have specific focus areas or not. I think most people call this developer and leave contributor for people who have sent one or more patches but do not have RCS write access. - Everyone commenting on the plan, adding/removing ideas I'd really like to see the Wiki set up before we get to the details. - Assigning areas to specific contributors Fine! I'll get to this in another post. - Getting a rough schedule in place for some 1.9.x test releases Speaking of which, I would like to hand over the lead for 1.x entirely to you. This sort of already happend, but I'd like to assert this. You have done a very good job on this.

I vote to have it on stable-1.8.x and mainly on 1.8.2 release. +1. For it, we would need a process that could be used to propose changes for the branch and name someone else if you're not available in meanwhile. Important point. Will we designate people that jump in when a person isn't available, or will we just let it sort out somehow (this actually has worked nicely overall in the past). Leslie is one of more experienced people here about the code itself. Nevertheless, he's not doing much viewable coding nowadays and I don't know if he has the need time to lead the project. If he has, I would like to have him as our lead. It depends on the amount of work. With the current prospects on the way Parted will go, I have enough time for both resuming to contribute code (if Anant or somebody else fills in the infrastructure position), serving as representative for the project and patch review. I'd also like us to define whether the infrastructure person will also merge patches if they have been found to be good in peer review. Debarshi Ray is one of our most active contributors and he's doing a great job. I would like to grant commit permission to him directly on our GIT repository so he won't depend of us for trivial changes while the bigger ones, as usual, should be discussed here before commited. +1. Currently I'm trying to work on most code as possible and try to make things happen as fast as possible. I don't know what position would be the right one to me but I think, for sure, I'll continue to help the project. I'm also one of the group of people that has auth to release parted, from GNU POV so I can help if someone is away for something and we need to release on meanwhile. Very good. I have nothing to add to this. I just don't want to get a too formal project otherwise we'll end waiting too much by each other and it'll just make the project slower and unmanageble. Yes. As much org as needed, as much flexibility as possible.

Dear Sadrul, thanks for your efforts. The screenshot looks very good, and although we already have some sort of Curses frontend in GNU cfdisk, please continue to develop and promote it if you wish. We could surely offer you a repository if you have special needs; it would be easier, however, if you could use Savannah, Sourceforge or BerliOS for storing your code and managing your development. The mailing lists are the central place for developer communication. Please feel free to ask every Parted- and partitioning-related question you may have. You also asked this question: http://svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/gaim/trunk/console/libgnt/). It doesn't do any real work yet. It simply displays the list of devices, and the list of partitions in each device. As I plan to move ahead to more features, I would appreciate any suggestions about things to watch out for, important features, interface design, name etc. The source code for the 'parted' frontend (parted/*.[hc] in the Parted source distribution) will give you all necessary information.

What's the idea regarting 1.8 branch? Will we release a 1.8.1 or even 1.9 before 2.0? IMHO we should have those releases in between as well. We can continue on parallel development of 2.0 with some heavyweight features like partition ID support, undo/redo (or) fdisk-style write-changes-at-end; stuff like that. Yes, please add this to the list of 2.0 stuff I posted earlier.

[parted-devel] Patch to add undo/redo functionality to libparted
Greetings,
this mail concerns Parted Edge.
Vanni Brutto has drafted a patch that adds undo/redo functionality
to libparted; note the drafted -- its current state is that of a
proof-of-concept. He states that he will rewrite it in a clean manner
when the approach is agreed upon.
Find it attached for peer review. Be sure to give it a look.
Leslie
