2019-01-16 Thread Gunnar Morling
Does anyone know whether/how I could export all my existing chat logs
from HipChat? I'd like to keep a copy esp. of all 1:1 chats I had, if
that's possible.

Thanks for any hints,

Sure. What I meant was that we are *de facto* done migrating to gitter. Not
that we meant it, but almost everyone is there already and almost no one is
on HipChat.

I wouldn't expect important matters to be discussed on Gitter, but then
again I seem to remember someone (who was that? ;) ) telling me to use the
mailing list, and not HipChat, for important matters. So, you should be
fine.

That being said, even if the decision to migrate was not made, we will have
to make it at some point. So if you want something else, I'd be happy to
hear about that :)

Hey wait a second :) You invited us to try Gitter. That's fine but we
never decided we're migrating to Gitter.

I'm certainly not on Gitter regularly nor right now, so I'm expecting
any important matter to be discussed on mailing lists or HipChat.

If it helps, Guillaume, the desktop client made all the difference for me.
And I hated the idea of moving to Gitter based on just the web client.

Why is creating a new topic (=typing three extra words) an issue? This 
is the killer feature why many people love Zulip.

(I would not spend more than 5 seconds checking for any existing topic 
on similar matter)

There's a checkbox just next to the Send button, check it once and the 
setting persists.

Maybe they don't have feedback? Besides zooming in (View - Zoom In) I am 
perfectly satisfied with the UI.

Actually one thing that I am not 100% comfortable with is the 
active/inactive status, which marks people inactive despite they have 
the client just on the background.

2018-12-06 Thread Yoann Rodiere
> You also need to use ctrl+enter to send a message, the default enter is a
new line in your message

There's a checkbox to change that, and its value is persisted, so you only
have to tick it once. It's located just beside the "Send" button, I'm sure
you saw it :)
But apart from that, yes, I agree it's not very user-friendly. It's more
about the user getting used to the tool than the tool being made obvious
from the start.

I'm also unsure how long Gitter will continue to be maintained, and how
well it will be. But we're mostly done migrating to Gitter; I don't see
much activity on HipChat anymore.

Objectively, and regardless of my preferred tool, the main drawback I can
see about not moving to Zulip (or another tool) now, but only later, is the
confusion it will potentially create for users: we were on HipChat,
announced we were moving to Gitter and changed the links on our website,
and a few months later we move again. That is, I think, something we want
to avoid.

So the question really is: is Gitter the right tool for us, and do we trust
it to stay the right tool for us long enough (say, at least a couple of
years)?

2018-12-06 Thread Guillaume Smet
So, I'm using Zulip right now on a daily basis.

I maintain my first impression that it's really not user friendly.

The fact that you are required to create topics for discussions (or find a
suitable topic in a list of a gazillion topics previously created,
obviously without a search engine where you need it - you have a global one
at the top where you can find topics) is a pain. You also need to use
ctrl+enter to send a message, the default enter is a new line in your
message. The UI is not very good and I don't see any improvement since the
last time I tested it so I'm wondering if they are investing in it.

We could decide to use it as a dev team as I suppose we would get used to
it, but I seriously don't think it's a good alternative for our users to
occasionally come chat with us.

As for Gitter, I agree with the notification issue, the web client is all
buggy. Haven't tested the desktop client yet.

I must admit that I prefer using Gitter. Probably until I get bitten by the
1-1 history issue :).

From what I can see, GitLab doesn't invest much in Gitter either so I
wonder if it's gonna be viable in the long term.

I suppose we'll see.

 Ok. Well, I guess we'll see. As I mentioned above, I don't think forcing
 people to have a GitHub account will be very effective, but I can't suggest
 a perfect solution either. Bots answering with a few links (documentation,
 etc.) to the first message of each user come to mind, but that could be
 considered rude, so I wouldn't do that unless the traffic becomes
 unmanageable. Other solutions include kicking out "spammers" (but that
 doesn't work if it's many users asking a single question), or making the
 -dev rooms invite-only and only checking the user rooms once in a while
 (might work if Gitter sends emails when your are mentioned while offline).
 So, yeah, in short: I don't really know.

 Gitter, that's enough for me.  Sounded like the other option was "allow

 Then it should be fine: anonymous access apparently only allows to read
 messages. Login through GitLab, GitHub or Twitter is necessary in order to
 start posting new messages.

The WildFly team is moving from Slack to Zulip, because Zulip seems to be
the only solution that is free, provides unlimited history, and allows
unlimited users even in private rooms (for OSS projects, at least). Gitter
has all that, except unlimited users, as we are limited to 25 people per
private room.

You can join them here: https://wildfly.zulipchat.com/

Back to our solution... We are now 71 days away from the decommissioning of
HipChat. *Is everyone happy with Gitter?* Do you see a strong reason to
keep looking for another solution?

For my part, I noticed problems with the web client, in particular with
notifications, which are sub-standard, but with the desktop client
everything seems to work fine. It's simple, but it does the job.

Re: [hibernate-dev] Chat migration - D minus 115 until the death of HipChat

2018-11-21 Thread Yoann Rodiere
On top of not being able to add more than 25 people to a private room,
there's another limitation of Gitter that Fabio just noticed: the chat
history for 1-to-1 conversations is very limited. In our case, we can only
see 2 days back, and there's no concept of archives like there is in rooms.

Meanwhile, the WildFly team is giving up on Slack because of the very
limited size of history in free plans. They are investigating Zulip,
RocketChat and MatterMost in particular. Maybe let's see what they end up
choosing and why?

 Most people are likely to have one, and those who don't are likely to not
 have one for political reasons (think free software extremists) rather than
 because they aren't tech savvy enough: while the "hibernate" naming might
 confuse users looking for information about grizzly bears, I doubt my
 grandmother, my 7-year-old nephew or even my non-software-engineer of a
 wife would end up on Gitter by mistake.

 Well since that's obvious, clearly I was referring to a different way
 of cathegorizing people joining@ not by age or expertise in technology
 but in having reasonable expectations and willing to do some research
 before bothering us all.

 You probably weren't around yet, but Hibernate has had hard times in
 which it was "victim of its own success": just too many
 kinda-interested people making a ton of basic questions that could be
 easily solved otherwise.

 Some "barriers" we have in place have made it manageable; of course I
 can't tell if it's all merit of the barriers of entry or just people
 coming in lower volumes with better intentions, but I'm confident that
 some of the barriers we have have helped to keep some sanity (e.g.
 login on #hibernate-dev on IRC requiring an account).

 Assuming the new chat platform takes off, there's a risk it might be
 too successful as well.  But I guess we'll see, or let's use a very
 bad chat platform so to keep people from coming :P

Ok. Well, I guess we'll see. As I mentioned above, I don't think forcing
people to have a GitHub account will be very effective, but I can't suggest
a perfect solution either. Bots answering with a few links (documentation,
etc.) to the first message of each user come to mind, but that could be
considered rude, so I wouldn't do that unless the traffic becomes
unmanageable. Other solutions include kicking out "spammers" (but that
doesn't work if it's many users asking a single question), or making the
-dev rooms invite-only and only checking the user rooms once in a while
(might work if Gitter sends emails when your are mentioned while offline).
So, yeah, in short: I don't really know.

Gitter, that's enough for me.  Sounded like the other option was "allow

Then it should be fine: anonymous access apparently only allows to read
messages. Login through GitLab, GitHub or Twitter is necessary in order to
start posting new messages.

For me its not so much about "the right kind of people".  More just

I don't see why we should force people to have a GitHub account,
considering there are other means of logging into Gitter.

As to getting the right type of people, I'm not sure it's relevant. Most
people are likely to have one, and those who don't are likely to not have
one for political reasons (think free software extremists) rather than
because they aren't tech savvy enough: while the "hibernate" naming might
confuse users looking for information about grizzly bears, I doubt my
grandmother, my 7-year-old nephew or even my non-software-engineer of a
wife would end up on Gitter by mistake.

I don't remember. We created these rooms as an experiment in 2014..
Yoann created some more rooms recently.

Should we enforce people to have a Github account? I'd like that, I
think it would better nudge towards getting the right type of people
to join.

The easy way to install Gitter natively on Fedora:

> flatpak install flathub im.gitter.Gitter

Or you can do it via browser:

Click on the main link here, then open and confirm install:
https://flatpak.org/setup/Fedora/

Same again on:
https://flathub.org/apps/details/im.gitter.Gitter

What is it a conscious decision to not require a GitHub account to join
these rooms?  I just noticed that is a toggle-option in the room's settings
also.

TBH, I don't care about fancy features. Gitter is OK for me but yeah not
having sound is really annoying.

I might miss notifications from time to time.

In any case, it will mostly be a problem for you all if you ping me :).

I prefer to have it in the browser where I do most of my interactions with
people.

And AFAIK, Yoann wrote they were only packaged as deb (and not very excited
about compiling it).

BTW, tbh, I'm a bit worried GitLab has only one dev on it if they want to
become a player in this area. They certainly have some work to do to catch

As you can see from the logs, we tried to use Gitter in the past -
before HipChat.

What you mention now are pretty much the same reasons for which we
were skeptical back then; although I must say it improved a lot so
maybe they are not fast but they seem on track and committed, better
than HipChat for sure :D

If one wants a lot of features then clearly only Slack is the way to
go. Not saying we should go with Slack, just that we'll need to be
patient and we'll always be short of some features - if that's not
acceptable then only Slack will make you happy.

It's quite nice of Gitter that it kinda encourages Github users and
makes our rooms easy to find; it's a better use of our time to help &
interact other developers.

BTW the issue you linked to suggests the native clients don't have
this specific problem.. might want to try that?

It's not about having a sound, it's about having a notification e.g. if you
don't enable the OS sounds, you don't have a sound.

E.g. I think it's your Mac notification framework that produces the sound.

Are you using the webapp?

Because I don't see any preference to enable sound and there is no sound at
all when I get a notification.

Re: [hibernate-dev] Chat migration - D minus 115 until the death of HipChat

2018-11-12 Thread Gunnar Morling
I'm just on their website, e.g. https://gitter.im/debezium/dev.
There's an icon with three sliders in the upper right corner, next to
my own profile picture. "Notifications" let me choose when I'd like to
have a sound, e.g. never, just for direction mentions or for general
mentions in a room.

Have you tried "Room Settings" -> "Notifications"? We're on Gitter for
Debezium, too, and in fact the notifications were too noisy for me, so
I turned them off :)

2018-11-12 Thread Guillaume Smet
Hi,

So, one thing I find particularly annoying with Gitter now that we are
trying to use it for real interactions is the lack of notification sounds
in the webapp. When you're focused on your work, it's really easy to miss
the visual ones and having a sound really helped on HipChat.

There is an open issue here:
https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitter/webapp/issues/735 .

AFAICS in the commit log, there's one person working on Gitter and it's not
making tremendous progress.

(Yeah, I know, it's Open Source, I can contribute...)

Re: [hibernate-dev] Chat migration - D minus 115 until the death of HipChat

2018-11-09 Thread Yoann Rodiere
Hi,

TL;DR: I created the Gitter rooms. Let's all go there for a few days, at
least to try it?

*Connecting*

Obviously you can just connect to https://gitter.im/ and use the browser.
You can sign in with your Github, Gitlab or Twitter account.

There are also desktop/mobile applications. https://gitter.im/apps
They only provide .deb packages, though, and I wasn't able to convert them
easily using alien (I didn't try very hard). There is a snap out there, but
it's an old version that isn't allow to use the Gitter APIs anymore.

If you prefer to use IRC, they apparently provide a bridge. I don't know
what it's worth, but you can always give it a try: see
https://irc.gitter.im/ .

*What's next?*

Let's try to use it for a few days, see if everyone is comfortable with it?
Let's see if there isn't any blocker for anyone, and if the news from other
projects (such as WildFly moving to Slack) don't make use change our minds.

Then if everyone is okay with it, we can finalize everything:

   - Invite external people to our rooms (I didn't invite anyone except our
   own team)
   - Advertise Gitter as our main chat platform:
   - On our websites
  - On IRC (we should at least mention it in the "message of the day")
  - On the hibernate-announce mailing list
  - In the REAME file of our projects through a badge: [![Gitter](
  https://badges.gitter.im/hibernate/hibernate-room-id.svg)](
  https://gitter.im/hibernate/hibernate-room-id
  ?utm_source=badge_medium=badge_campaign=pr-badge)
   - Close the HipChat rooms somehow.

*Available rooms*

For each of our main projects, I created one room bound to the GitHub
repository for users, and *one *-dev room for our own use*.
I also created rooms based on what I could see in HipChat (branding, ...).

You can find a list of all rooms here: https://gitter.im/hibernate/home

I already added people according to which room they were member of in
HipChat, but I may have missed some. Please check which room you are
subscribed to.

*Settings*

You can configure how often you want to be notified for each room: go to
the room, click on the "settings" button next to your avatar on the top
right, then "Notifications".
In this same popup, you have the option of setting general defaults.

Also, a dark theme is available: click on your avatar on the top right,
then "Toggle Dark Theme".

That's pretty much it.

*Configuring your rooms*

I configured the main rooms to  receive Github notifications on the
"activity tab" to the right, as well as Jenkins notifications for the
"master" and "PR" job (when I found it). Feel free to add more integration
if you want to.

How to add a Jenkins integration:

   - If your room doesn't have a Jenkins integration yet (most have):
   - Go to the room on Gitter
  - Click on the "settings" button next to your avatar on the top
  right, then "Integrations".
  - Select "Jenkins"
  - Select the events you want to be notified of
  - Copy the webhook URL near the bottom
  - Create new credentials on Jenkins:
  http://ci.hibernate.org/credentials/store/system/domain/_/newCredentials
 - In the "Kind" field, select "Secret text"
 - Leave the "Scope" to "Global"
 - In the "Secret" field, paste the webhook URL
 - In the "ID" field, put "gitter-webhook-url-"
 - In the "description" field, put "Gitter webhook URL for the  room"
 - Click "OK"
 - For each Jenkins job:
  - On the job page in Jenkins, click "Configure"
  - Select the "Job Notifications" tab near the top
  - Click "Add endpoint"
  - Leave the format to "JSON" and the protocol to "HTTP"
  - Set "URL Source" to "Credentials Store"
  - In the "URL" box, select the entry corresponding to your room,
  which should normally appear as "Gitter webhook URL for the  room"
  - Click "Save"

Re: [hibernate-dev] Chat migration - D minus 115 until the death of HipChat

2018-11-06 Thread Yoann Rodiere
I think all day-to-day users of our chat voted. Here are the results:

IRC: 4 Yes, 5 "if need be", 6 no.
Slack:   5 Yes, 3 "if need be", 7 no
Zulip:   5 Yes, 3 "if need be", 7 no
Gitter: 10 Yes, 1 "if need be", 4 no

It seems Gitter won. That's the only option with more "Yes" than "No"...
It's got the most "Yes" (even counting "if need be"), and perhaps more
importantly it's got the least amount of "no".

To those who voted no: if you have specific concerns about Gitter, could
you please mention them here? Maybe we can find solutions to some of the
problems.

I'll look into moving the Hibernate Search chat to Gitter and will report
back on this thread.

Re: [hibernate-dev] Chat migration - D minus 115 until the death of HipChat

2018-11-05 Thread Yoann Rodiere
Not everyone voted, far from it; we're missing votes from Gail, Guillaume,
Fabio, Chris, Davide, Emmanuel, Koen. So no, no consensus yet.

I sent an email to them off-list, perhaps they didn't see this thread.

Provisional results are as follows:

IRC: 2 Yes, 3 "if need be", 3 no
Slack: 2 Yes, 2 "if need be", 4 no
Zulip: 2 Yes, 3 "if need be", 3 no
Gitter: 6 Yes, 0 "if need be", 2 no

So Gitter seems on the verge of winning, but apparently some people are
categorically against it, so I'd say we'll have to give them a chance to
explain why. I'll wait for everyone to answer, though, since they could
completely change the results.

Thanks for starting this!

The choice of IRC is a bit special on the list as we never intended it
to be killed: it has been historically important and we should
maintain some level of reachability on it.  So voting for the "IRC"
choice just means a preference to not use anything else on top of it,
while alternatively we'' be using X on top of IRC, albeit with a
preference to use X for team conversations.

Also good to remind: please try to be on IRC as well occasionally as
many in the OSS community we integrate with will reach out there.

Thanks,
Sanne

[hibernate-dev] Chat migration - D minus 115 until the death of HipChat

2018-10-23 Thread Yoann Rodiere
Hi,

TL;DR: please vote here if you don't want to end up having to use a chat
tool you don't like: https://doodle.com/poll/h6scc9bsh6a4ymre

HipChat Cloud will stop working on February 15th, 2019 [1]. We need to
choose an alternative before we have our back against the wall, so I'll try
to resurrect the conversation.

As a reminder, Stride is no longer an option: Atlassian cancelled the
project, and encourages users to migrate to Slack.

The discussed options so far were:

   - *Moving back to IRC*. Aye: ?; nay: ?
   Pros: simple as hell.
   Cons: basic as hell; we won't keep the chat history.
   - *Migrating to Slack* [6], as suggested by Atlassian [2]. Aye:
   Christian B; Nay: ?
   Pros: we will keep the chat history (I think).
   Cons: not open-source; desktop client consumes a lot of resources.
   - *Migrating to Zulip* [3]. Aye: Emmanuel, Yoann. Nay: Guillaume (kind
   of).
   Pros: Advanced conversation management thanks to the "topics" feature.
   Cons: Complex to use because of the "topics" feature; we won't keep the
   chat history (1).
   - *Migrating to Gitter* [5] (we'll create different rooms, probably).
   Aye: ?, Nay: ?
   Pros: Users seem to actually go there, so we could have our "live
   support" rooms next to our "internal discussion" rooms.
   Cons: not open-source; we won't keep the chat history (1).

I created a poll based on the discussion we had on the thread
"[hibernate-dev] Stride". I think everyone had the time to suggest another
option.

Please vote here and now, or remain silent forever ;):
https://doodle.com/poll/h6scc9bsh6a4ymre

I'd suggest the following rules: if there's a single clear winner (a
platform that everyone would be happy with), we'll pick that one. If there
are multiple clear winners, whoever does the migration work will pick
what's easier to set up (taking into account the various integrations).
Otherwise, back to discussing it on this thread...

(1) There seems to be some work in progress on a migration tool from
HipChat to Zulip, but it doesn't seem to be ready yet [4]
