Dart framework is the first consumer of it. (now, I can grrr on the sparse SNI documentation in python's world) 15:40 <didrocks> - some code refactoring to remove duplication and make creating new frameworks even easier. 15:40 <didrocks> - fighting mostly throughout the week with s-jenkins (CI datacenter) being flacky. Sometimes down, sometimes very slow (like now). 15:40 <didrocks> - also maybe an update in trusty made jenkins slave quite fragile, tried various strategy to get that better, still not there. 15:40 <didrocks> - continue pushing on python 3.4.3 regression (debug the source, reported https://launchpad.net/bugs/1500768, push a workaround in a ppa for s-jenkins, answered to people reporting duplicated bugs). Thanks to seb128 for helping pushing, python 3.4.3 is reverted in 14.04 as we speak. 15:40 <ubot5`> Ubuntu bug 1500768 in python3.4 (Ubuntu Trusty) "python3.4.3 SRU break requests" [High,Triaged] 15:40 <didrocks> - get back tests to 100% passing \o/ And added even more tests (raised the code coverage to reach 92%) 15:40 <didrocks> - tried (when s-jenkins was available) to debug flackyness in tests. Seems due to the more and more fragile jenkins client (update not happening) as discussed above. 15:40 <didrocks> misc: 15:40 <didrocks> - handled regression triggered by jayatana and SRU it: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/jayatana/+bug/1441487. Pinged our java maintainer as we need at some point some proper appmenu integration for java apps. Still gave a way per application to export the menu through jayatana. 15:40 <ubot5`> Ubuntu bug 1441487 in jayatana (Ubuntu Vivid) "Running any Java program produces messages in the terminal, while rendering many Java applications broken" [Critical,Fix committed] 15:40 <didrocks> . 15:41 <willcooke> thanks didrocks.
