Re:[uportal-dev] [uportal-user] Can't initportal 2.6GA -- Resolution
Moving this to the dev list. After further consideration I would also like to put of the 2.6.1 release until more time can be spent on this issue. I'll be doing some more digging tomorrow to see what the options are for a resolution to this problem. Any ideas and suggestions are welcome. -Eric Cris J Holdorph wrote: > Just to bring this issue back to the foreground.

[uportal-dev] uPortal 2.6.0 - default theme with AJAX on - horizontal scrollbar
I created Jira issue UP-1799 and attached as a comment the fix suggested by Parker. Can someone who is more skilled in the way of CSS verify his fix is correct. I will check it into subversion if someone can at least tell me it looks correct.

Re: [uportal-dev] Requiring Jira issue ids in commit messages
I'm in favor of it as well. I was just lamenting this morning, that another project I am on, does not have it and I hope they introduce it soon.

[uportal-dev] Merging & SVN
Not sure how many people here used the CVS merge functionality when committing to a branch & trunk or to multiple branches. If you did you may have noticed that SVN's merge support is less than stellar. I've started using svnmerge ( http://www.orcaware.com/svn/wiki/Svnmerge.py ) which uses properties to keep track of revisions that have and have not been merged between branches. The wiki page they have gives good examples of common use cases and can make moving changes between branches much easier. People are welcome to use this to facilitate merges and post questions about the tool here if you have them. -Eric smime.p7s Description: S/MIME Cryptographic Signature
