For the next NetCAT program (7.4/8.0) it would be great to have a sign up form which would automatically: * assure that NetCAT applicant has a valid netbeans.org account * subscribe applicant's e-mail address to the NetCAT mailing list * add the person to the new NetCAT team in the dashboard * create an HTML page with all registered participants ideally with bug/rfe/emails statistics Such a form should require: - name - surname - username (or disable the form for not logged in applicants) - country - tribe (2 lists of areas plus "no specific focus" option) - CPU counts - RAM size - operating system (primary and secondary) - t-shirt size (S/M/L/XL/XXL/XXXL) - sex (male/female) - availability (minimum hours per week)

It would be enough if you could send an e-mail FROM applicant's e-mail address to sympa@netbeans.org with subject "subscribe netcat". > > * create an HTML page with all registered participants ideally with > > bug/rfe/emails statistics > > So table header would be like this? > > #| Name | Reported bugs | Reported RFE | Emails stats The table would be like this: > #| Name | Reported useful bugs | Reported other bugs | Reported RFEs | Sent e-mails where "useful" means bugs with New or Reopened status or Fixed resolution.

OK, I'll do what I can :) I already played with sending mails from dashboard but one solution I know using mail() function fails because sendmail is not installed on the server. I'll try to come up with different way. Testing if user is logged in is a good idea, at least I can test implementation of the SSO I've made :)
Thinking about it, I can let user to re-send the form again and update his/her data by this. Of course the same will be possible in administration.
Sure. Thanks for the good idea.
OK, so what's done for now: - new "home" page for NetCAT in dashboard quality2.netbeans.org/dashboard/web/netcat.php - signup form (with the re-submit to change) - Not tested yet :) Because I'm really not sure about working mail capabilities, there is a Subscribe button once the form is submitted with standard "mailto:". Another thing is that because we don't have access to user's email address, the auto subscribe would allow anybode to subscribe any email address and that's not a good idea. - list of participants quality2.netbeans.org/dashboard/web/participants.php These changes will be propagated within 20 minutes. I'll try it then. Please notice that reason why NetCAT participants is empty is that user has to be in 2 DB tables to be listed there: - in users in dashboard (in any team, signup action will move him to NetCAT) - in new DB table with data from the signup form => this is empty for now as no one has signed yet.
Thanks Lada! Can you please change the "Availability" from text field to pulldown with values "1, 2, 3, ... 10+"? Also please remove the "Free Riders" option from both Tribe pulldowns. "No specific focus" choice will transform into membership in that tribe. Also, do you check against two same selections?

They are already gone, maybe browser cache issue. I added tribes to dashboard administration so it is up to you which tribes will be displayed. As for the membership, dashboard doesn't know anything like this. These tribes are used only for the sign up form and list of participants > Also, do you check against two same selections? Not yet :-)
(In reply to comment #0) > * create an HTML page with all registered participants ideally with > bug/rfe/emails statistics Done (except for the emails), as mentioned above, there is a page with participants and now page with statistics (and custom time range at the bottom) http://quality2.netbeans.org/dashboard/web/netcat_stats.php Please note that both pages have standard dashboard caching (100 minutes) and to refresh page without cache, use Reload from menu (or just add noCache parameter to URL http://quality2.netbeans.org/dashboard/web/netcat_stats.php?noCache Above requests for sign-up form have been implemented as well. Just a minor comment. All these NetCAT statistics are composed from people in NetCAT team. In other words, it doesn't matter if user used the sign-up form or not. I'd prefer to keep it that way because all other teams are using it as well. If user uses sign-up form (or if you add him to PARTICIPANTS in administration), it is moved (if in other team) or created as a new member of NetCAT. So sign-up form is synced with NetCAT team, but not vice versa.
Seems to be working. The parser is in nb-quality repository. Without any arguments, it parses all mails in current month and sends data to dashboard. I created hudson job for it, so once a day emails will be updated. If you need older data, check job's description or just tell me :) Please note that although [1] shows members of NetCAT team, in order to see emails, they need to sign up using the form (to get their email address). I tried and now dashboard has data for March 2013. Jirko, could you please signup as NetCAT participant and check that [1] http://quality2.netbeans.org/dashboard/web/netcat_stats.php?noCache lists you and that there is 1 email from you? You can then switch yourself back to QE in administration. Thanks a lot
Thank you Lado! I subscribed to NetCAT successfully. However, I must reopen this RFE, due to the following reasons: * the statistic only showed 1 sent e-mail in my row even though I changed date range from 2013-01-01 to 2013-03-31 * list of tribes has only 3 items and it does not list "No specific focus" option * if somebody has 4 GB RAM, should s/he select 2-4 or 4-6? It would be better to have 0 - 1.9, 2 - 3.9, 4 - 5.9 etc. * is http://quality2.netbeans.org/dashboard/web/netcat.php linked from somewhere?

Btw I guess I misunderstood comment #7 about Free riders and no specific focus, I thought it is the same.

Not yet, I've been thinking about it and I'll remove NetBeans cube logo from main menu and put NetCAT above "Hall of fame". Would do you think?

OK, menu and form changes will be visible in 30minutes (make sure to use ?noCache :) just to be sure) I'll change the job configuration temporary to parse older data once. Locally when I was testing I got into a state where server started to refuse my requests so hopefully it will work for larger number of data (in worst case scenario, I'll decrease number of threads that make requests) Thanks
Cool, verified. Thanks a lot Lado! BTW, Is it possible to change registered participants' data? In case somebody makes a mistake when specifying his/her e-mail, or wants to step out of some tribe etc.
You're welcome. Yes, in this case simply user can again submit the sign up form and already existing data will be replaced with just submitted. About leaving tribe, if it is sufficient to join Free riders (or No specific focus) instead, again simply submit form one more time. Btw there were one last culprit with dashboard and bugzilla both using case sensitive usernames and for instance macksix was not correctly parsed because in BZ he has MackSix while in DB macksix. This is fixed (visible in 25min)
OK, resubmitting the form is usable workaround. Thanks again.
