Gustavo F. Padovan: ProFUSION on the kernel development statistics for 2.6.35

Fri, 23 Jul 2010 15:30:07 -0700

A recent article from lwn.net shows ProFUSION in the most active employers for networking stuff in the 2.6.35 release cycle. That was due to the work we did in the Bluetooth stack implementing the L2CAP Extended Features (see older post in this blog to learn about L2CAP Extended Features). Nice!

Gustavo F. Padovan: L2CAP Enhanced Retransmission Mode getting stable

Thu, 15 Jul 2010 16:47:26 -0700

After more than 4 months working daily at ERTM, here at ProFUSION, we have now a functional and much more stable implementation. Several potential crashes have been fixed, and missing features were added. Also the code was checked against the Profile Tuning Suite(PTS) test software. That software is the official test software from Bluetooth SIG to qualify Bluetooth stacks and the result is that right now we are also passing all PTS tests.

Raphael Kubo da Costa: Icecream and glibc 2.11.2

Mon, 12 Jul 2010 17:10:23 -0700

In case you use Icecream (the distributed compile system which makes your coworkers' machines compile KDE for you ) and happen to be using a glibc >= 2.11.2, you might notice that you are not able to send compilation jobs to other machines while still being visible to the scheduler and receiving jobs from other hosts.

Raphael Kubo da Costa: Patch review weekend

Sun, 04 Jul 2010 11:44:40 -0700

Besides maintaining Ark, I also spend some of my KDE time reviewing and applying patches for other projects as well. This weekend I had some free time, which was dedicated to applying some Kopete patches and pushing some KDE-FreeBSD patches upstream.

Raphael Kubo da Costa: News from Ark land

Sat, 19 Jun 2010 22:31:49 -0700

When I started blogging in the end of last year, I thought I would write much more frequently than I do: if only I had better marketing abilities, there would certainly be many more posts about what's going on the Ark, KDE's beloved archive manager, and KDE on FreeBSD fronts. At least I seem to be in good company in the occasional bloggers department.

Leandro Pereira: WebKit Commiter

Fri, 18 Jun 2010 14:46:47 -0700

I’ve been recently nominated as a WebKit committer after landing more than 60 patches to upstream the EFL port. My account was set up yesterday, and I’ve already committed some build fixes that would otherwise get dusty on the bug tracker.

This will eventually speed up the maintenance of the EFL port, as build fixes do not require to be reviewed by someone else, and thus don’t require the use of the usually crowded commit queue.

Gustavo F. Padovan: Now git tree hosted at kernel.org

Sat, 22 May 2010 13:18:19 -0700

Some days ago I requested a account to the kernel.org admins, today I finished to setup my kernel git tree there. If you were following my git tree at git.profusion.mobi please change your remote to the kernel.org one.

git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/padovan/bluetooth-testing.git

You can also browse on the gitweb view here. =)

Lucas De Marchi: Now, officially an EFL developer

Tue, 04 May 2010 17:36:08 -0700

Last week I was officially added to EFL developers list. After contributing some patches to eina, edbus, elementary and E17 (especially to connman module), Gustavo Barbieri, who is also my boss at ProFUSION, added me to developers list giving me commit rights on EFL svn. He said me some weeks ago that the only thing missing [...]

While working with WebKit at ProFUSION, this famous XKCD strip couldn’t be more descriptive:

There are various ways to get a monster like WebKit to compile faster, such as using ccache or icecream.

Gustavo F. Padovan: L2CAP Extended Features

Sun, 25 Apr 2010 19:20:31 -0700

Here at ProFUSION I’m working to finish the L2CAP Extended Features introduced in the Core Specification Addendum 1 of the Bluetooth Specification. As you can see in older posts in this blog I have started that implementation by myself during the last year’s Google Summer of Code. The project was too big and I wasn’t able to finish it in 3 months.
