BeeSeek Blog

BeeSeek staff wish a happy Christmas to all BeeSeekers and all those who still do not know to be. :P

It isn't a movie title, but the people who will make the immediate future of BeeSeek: we are looking for debuggers.
After the bug 172810 will be fixed, as the developer Andrea Corbellini says, will begin the debugging period of Hive.

To become a protagonist:

- read the Community page
- subscribe the Developers' mailing list

You can find all the help pages about bug-hunting on the wiki:

- bug triaging
- debugging

Good luck!

DnaX, new bee from our hive, introduce himself as a skilful coder, in particular with php.
Just arrived, he wanted to make himself useful and now we have the first awesome result:

A must for every blog!

To have it in your blog, it's enogh to add theese few lines:

<a href="http://blog.beeseek.org"><img src="http://blog.beeseek.org/banner" alt="BeeSeek News" /></a>

Of course, you are all invited to find a place for this small, nice banner, to support and promote BeeSeek in the blogosphere as well as embellish your homepage. ;)

If you have already added or if you are going to do, please leave a sign under this post and let us know your support!

EDIT:

is also possible to edit the corner's colour, to better integrate the banner to your blog.
To do this you have to add ?bg=ffffff at the end of the link, where ffffff ; is the RGB code of the selected colour.

andrea-bs, developers team leader, recently decided to modify the structure of the team to favor a division in two separate entities, Core Developers and Quality Assurance.

The two team will have the following goals:

BeeSeek Core Developers (beeseek-core-devs on Launchpad): will improve and develop every beeseek application, being able to autonomously upload code and check security bugs.

BeeSeek Quality Assurance (beeseek-core-bugs on Launchpad): must track down bugs, giving them priority and changing their status accordingly to fixes and contributions. Still, they don't have access to security bugs, like the Core Developers do.

N.B. Both teams are moderated by the Developers Team.

For more informations, you can look at Launchpad pages, and the wiki webpage dedicated to the Developers Team.

As already reported in andrea-bs's personal weblog, the developers team leader tried to flood hive, after implementing new features, and the application was able to pass the test without troubles.

Simone Brunozzi forecasts that Hive can probably reach about 40 requests per second in the next following months, while Andrea did his tests with 200 concurrent queries and the responseness was very quick anyway.
Thank to the good job of the Developers Team, Hive is going to rock!
