First experience using HTMLForm and Html:: stuff in a way that isn't directly derivative of UploadForm so takes a while to figure it all out. List files is sort of working now, URLs are broken. Clear files not tested, getting two buttons when I just wanted one. Something I did broke the main purpose of UploadStash (catting files out as previews and so on) so needs more work.

Working on a patch so this week won't be a total loss -- can get in a new UploadStash viewer, maybe also Dep Loader -- seems to be all working now. Inordinately hard to add new Special Pages, but I guess this isn't something that happens a lot.

OOO; sick

Dec 9

Getting less sick.

Came in for half-day.

Reviewed MediaStorage options

Worked on bug #26179 (concurrent uploads).

Dec 10

Once again worked on MediaStorage, looking into Mogile and other options, maybe a bit more than I ought to. Added some stuff to the wiki page on Russ' Homebrew, questions & requirements.

Worked again on bug #26179, concurrent uploads in the cluster failing. Not the highest priority issue, but Roan submitted a patch so I wanted to test that it worked and also test some other solutions that I wanted. Ended up shaving yaks a bit, setting up Memcached locally, was able to simulate the problem locally, then set up some tools so I can manipulate & view what's happening with stashed uploads. Adding a list-files and clear-everything feature to UploadStash.
