[b2g] Renaming the Boot2Gecko::Builds component to Book2Gecko::Gonk
Hi Team! We have a mystery component 'Boot2Gecko::Builds'. What goes there? Turns out there were a collection of Gaia bugs, but mainly it contains Gonk bugs. As there isn't really anywhere else for Gonk specific bugs to live, I propose that we rename this component to "Boot2Gecko::Gonk". This component would contain bugs that affect our Gonk subsystem. The main repositories that would be linked to this component would be B2G.git, b2g-manifest.git, and gonk-misc.git. Issues with our implementation of the Android build system (i.e. the thing that reads Android.mk files) would go here. Things that wouldn't go here include, but are not limited to: 1. gaia build system bugs 2. gecko bugs 3. gecko build system bugs 4. requests for Release Engineering assistance 5. gaia localization If I don't hear anything back before summit, I'll take silence as consent and file the bugs to make this change.

Re: [b2g] Renaming the Boot2Gecko::Builds component to Book2Gecko::Gonk
So I think using the name Gonk would be misleading. Boot2Gecko::General is for bugs which are in gecko (from talking to the sheriffs, they use this in their queries when searching for bugs which are relevant to the mercurial repositories). Boot2Gecko::Builds is for non-gaia bugs which are in one of the github repositories. Boot2Gecko::Gaia should be used for gaia bugs. I think we should rename Boot2Gecko::Builds to BootGecko::Github, and we should probably rename General to Gecko. Having Gecko and Github seems clearer to me than General and Builds.

Re: [b2g] Renaming the Boot2Gecko::Builds component to Book2Gecko::Gonk
Dave, Almost all of the bugs in B2G::Builds are bugs that are specific to Gonk. Also, almost all of the github repositories that aren't Gaia are parts of Gonk. We already have a Core product with many components for Gecko bugs. Do we want to have a second place that's specifically for tracking Gecko bugs? Axel, Localization data is not really part of the build system and it's definitely not similar to the rest of the bugs in the B2G::Builds component. Given that those bugs are concerning localizations of the Gaia product, I think B2G::Gaia is a much more appropriate component. Alternatively, maybe a B2G::Gaia::L10N component should be created.

Re: [b2g] Renaming the Boot2Gecko::Builds component to Book2Gecko::Gonk
Hi John, So, stuff like dom/system/gonk doesn't have a component in bugzilla, so I've been using Boot2Gecko::General for all of those. We can't use Boot2Gecko::Gonk (which is why I said choosing gonk would be confusing. There is also dom/bluetooth/gonk dom/mobilemessage/gonk dom/telephony/gonk dom/wappush/src/gonk hal/gonk uriloader/exthandler/gonk So we need different components for the github gonk versus the gecko gonk.

I think the "correct" component depends on the exact nature of what needs to be done, by whom, to solve the issue for l10n. Your example of adding/removing locales is a great one. To take the example from earlier this week, adding Italian locale to the B2G v1.1 branch was really a RelEng:GeneralAutomation bug, involving repo replication, branching, as well as updates to locale json files used by automation. We happened to spot the bug in B2G:Builds, and worked it through, but that was just by luck... scary for an urgent bug. For future add/remove locales like this, please file bug in RelEng:GeneralAutomation. Of course there's a lot of different situations that come up for l10n, but thats a recent example and was alluded to by jhford's first email, so I wanted to highlite it. Its of course easy to create components in bugzilla, so long as we have people responsible to triage that component in a timely manner. If you have examples of l10n work that doesnt fall into the existing components jhford listed in his first email, that would be helpful. tc John. > > John > > > On Sep 27, 2013, at 5:50 PM, Dave Hylands > wrote: > >> So I think using the name Gonk would be misleading. >> >> Boot2Gecko::General is for bugs which are in gecko (from talking to >> the sheriffs, they use this in their queries when searching for >> bugs which are relevant to the mercurial repositories). >> Boot2Gecko::Builds is for non-gaia bugs which are in one of the >> github repositories.

Re: [b2g] Renaming the Boot2Gecko::Builds component to Book2Gecko::Gonk
What about: Boot2Gecko::GonkIntegration with the description "Issues related to integrating the Gonk build system (based on the Android build system) and its helper scripts". This gets us away from terminology that is causing bugs to be filed into this component incorrectly while still mostly describing the content of bugs that are in this component.
