I’m still putting most of my effort into removing spurious failures from GHC CI. A few smaller tasks filled out my available time. I wish I had more time in the day!
Got set up with password sharing among maintainers of various Haskell services
Made improvements to the configuration for the GHC GitLab server, which was necessary to streamline deploying my spurious failure bot
Spent another small amount of time on Cabal pipelines on GitLab
Ongoing:
(Administrative stuff, taking care of filing US taxes as a resident of Finland)
Coming up:
Continuing with spurious failures
Describe this “spurious failure” process a little better. I will write a post about what the goal is, what it isn’t, how it fits into the bigger picture for the Haskell Foundation, and what the results have been so far.
Oh, nothing has changed yet, I’m just exploring the GitLab CI code. I understand that Cabal releases may or may not be built on GitHub instead of GitLab soon. I’m actually not paying too much attention to that debate, and I’m not spending very much time on my exploration at all.
@artem: I asked Bryan on #hackage if he could have a quick look at cabal CI and I OKed with HF (@david-christiansen) that diverting an epsilon of Bryan’s attention to that is acceptable and that syncing or not syncing release platforms of GHC and cabal (and other tools? HLS?) is a question worth exploring and asking the community/communities about.
That “quick look” was ostensibly to see in what shape the cabal gitlab CI is (though I knew very well it was in a terrible shape) and to estimate how costly it would be to get it and keep it fully in synch with GHC CI in the cheapest way possible, so that the community has any data to base its gitlab/github decision on. But, in reality, the release of cabal 3.10 is at hand and I secretly hoped Bryan is going to will cabal CI into working order just by the sheer threat that if it doesn’t Bryan may lay his hands on it. Or that there’s a script add-tool-to-GHC-CI.sh and Bryan runs it with argument cabal and that’s ti.
Maybe my first post here
i use lambda bot on irc among other and ways to use it are simple
i am still not clear about which link /documentation to follow, before i start using spurious bot ( as per the email today, from here)
Am i missing something?
