[8:09] <zumbrunn> good morning hannesw__
[8:09] <zumbrunn> (delayed reaction from yesterday) ;-)
[8:09] <hannesw__> hi chris
[8:10] <hannesw__> :-)
[8:10] <hannesw__> did you notice the helma.org updates page got faster?
[8:10] <hannesw__> http://dev.helma.org/updates/
[8:11] <zumbrunn> I noticed it is fast, anyway, yes!
[8:11] <hannesw__> i updated to a new helma 1.7 snapshot yesterday
[8:11] <hannesw__> 1.7 rc3 had some bugs, unfortnately
[8:11] <hannesw__> but now i'm really really confident :-)
[8:12] <zumbrunn> confident as in "time for the *real* release candidate" or confident as in "time to release for real"?
[8:13] <hannesw__> both
[8:13] <zumbrunn> :-)
[8:13] <hannesw__> i reactivated the test suite, and wrote some new tests
[8:13] <hannesw__> for large collections
[8:13] <hannesw__> and i moved it to modules/test
[8:14] <hannesw__> I think I'm finally converted to unit testing
[8:14] <hannesw__> First, I couldn't have done the binary/io/file implementations in helma ng without the tests
[8:15] <hannesw__> and now it helped a lot with helma 1 collection handling
[8:15] <hannesw__> thinking about naming for unit testing now.
[8:15] <hannesw__> i really prefer the helma ng names: assertEqual, assertTrue, etc
[8:16] <hannesw__> unfortunately, with require, there's no easy way to import these, so you end up with assert.assertEqual().
[8:16] <hannesw__> blargh.
[8:16] <zumbrunn> yes, that will get my +1
[8:17] <zumbrunn> (regarding the commonjs unit testing spec)
[8:18] <zumbrunn> the closest thing we currently have to a 1.7 change log is this here, right? http://dev.helma.org/wiki/New+features+in+Helma+1.7/
[8:19] <hannesw__> yes, i guess...
[8:19] <zumbrunn> will have to go through the commit messages
[8:19] <hannesw__> and that:
[8:19] <hannesw__> http://dev.helma.org/bugs/buglist.cgi?query_format=advanced&short_desc_type=allwordssubstr&short_desc=&product=Helma&target_milestone=1.7.0&long_desc_type=substring&long_desc=&bug_file_loc_type=allwordssubstr&bug_file_loc=&emailassigned_to1=1&emailtype1=substring&email1=&emailassigned_to2=1&emailreporter2=1&emailcc2=1&emailtype2=substring&email2=&bugidtype=include&bug_id=&chfieldfrom=&chfieldto=Now&chfieldvalue=&cmdtype=doit&orde
[8:19] <hannesw__> r=Reuse+same+sort+as+last+time&field0-0-0=noop&type0-0-0=noop&value0-0-0=
[8:20] <hannesw__> (bugs with target 1.7.0)
[8:20] <zumbrunn> oh, yes... that helps, of course
