Description: 7th meeting (Week 3) to discuss the projects progress, regarding the phase towards the next outcome in Week 5
Agenda:
- T135835: Meeting about handling non-pip packages / replace externals module
- Brief status report of the video copyright project (jayvdb)
Minutes of the Meeting:
- exiftool binary or perl package used depening on what was installed on system already
- agreed on using convert (ImageMagick) along with other libraries since that is the commons default
- allows to compare commons results against other libraries and e.g. find rendering errors, see https://github.com/AbdealiJK/file-metadata/issues/37
- possible categories to check for testing are:
- bulk test - image formats - nice finding on mimetypes: https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:AbdealiJKTravis/logs&oldid=198624634
- T135835: Meeting about handling non-pip packages / replace externals module: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:AbdealiJK/file-metadata/Dependencies
- talked about using Docker - that should solve the "very experimental packages used" issue as well
- DrTrigon has to think about that - decisions postponed
- agreed on announcing on commons-l in order to have it beta-tested soon, this needs a small tutorial etc.
- agreed on continue to work towards the midterm goal now and wait for the upstream patches in order to see how this goes
- no updates for the video copyright project yet, we're looking forward to this
