o/ Kudpung,
For what its worth, my personal and professional experience suggests phone
conferencing works well only people maintainers schedules coincide. Email
works especially well when people are out of sync, and gives time for email
senders to think things through.
Regarding T13's participation: I personally was against this but was told
since disciplinary action was only taken on enwiki it would not apply to
his work on xtools. I definitely am uncomfortable given the nature of his
actions that led to the ArbCom decision, but since others on the xtools
team was okay with it, I refrained from going further since I'm the newest
team member on the block.
Unsure what people are talking about re: messes, so I'll refrain from that.

I’ve only been following this email list for a day or
two and already I
see that the biggest problem is not getting the tools up and running or
porting existing ttools from other wikis to our corner of Labs, but one of
organisation/coordination.
I do not believe that trying to manage somthieng as important as this can
be done with the back and forth of email or even on IRC.
The greatest steps forward I have achieved for Wikipedia, such as the
cleanup of the massive IEP problem, and the development of the NPP suite,
were all done over Skype conferencing. There is even better face-2-face
multi-person conferencing available nowadays, may I respectfully suggest
that the team look into this in order to save time.
Also, if T13 is still one of the participants here, I’m not happy with the
arrangement.
In the meantime, I will try contacting some people I know at the
Foundation in an attempt to get them to clean up any mess they are directly
responsible for so that there will at least be a stable server to work on.
Thanks for listening.

I would go with the virtual box idea. The file system is essentially an
NFS mount (as I understand it) so you could still use your IDE or what have
you, you'd just would run the application in VirtualBox.

Because I want to see what’s broken on articleinfo by stepping through the
code. Plus. The code needs to be portable right?

May I ask why you're trying to do it on your Windows computer rather than
creating a test instance on Labs (where we'll be deploying it anyways),
making it work there, and then remembering how you did it, writing a
documentation file, and destroying the instance? (Or any other way that
doesn't involve doing it on Windows?)
Thanks,

So exactly how do you set up redis to work with PHP on Windows ß(Please
don’t hate me for that)? I’m totally unfamiliar with redis. It’s the
primary holdup I’m facing to getting the tool to work on my computer.

T13, that was before Hedonil touched the code. There’s all kinds of
hardcoded paths and webproxy usages specific to toollabs that I don’t know
what to do with.

It is movable because we kind of did it before with moving to xstools.
I'll see what I can do after the holiday weekend when I get home unless
someone else gets to it first.

I’ve spent nearly a day today get at least one tool to even load on my
computer, mainly revision history statistics tool. I’ve had absolutely no
luck getting it to work. Unless someone else would like to try, I’m
declaring xTools to be unmovable and therefore cannot be moved to
xtools.wmflabs.org with our dedicated environment to stabilize xTools. L
If no one objects, I would like to move to plan B and get wikihistory
temporarily ported to the new environment or the toollabs environment as a
temporary replacement to the broken articleinfo tool. That way we at least
have the important tools working again for the time being. We should
consider moving straight to building a rewrite, one that’s maintainable,
portable, and most importantly stable.
Elee, if no one objects to this plan, would you object to rebuilding the
instances, at least the dev ones, with the newest available Linux version
and the latest PHP version?
