Hi Billy

Thinking about it, it may be worth making a proper release to coincide with this (and also for CCP4, who asked recently too…)

Will follow up internally

Best wishes Graeme

Hi Graeme,

For dials, buildbot downloads the latest source from github and uses that. So for the currently available Phenix build, we are using the source from last night (10/12). Should we use the latest stable release for the official Phenix release?

HI Billy

All sounds good and I certainly approve of the forward looking to 2020 ☺

I wonder, could you tell me what revision of dials you have in phenix 1.11? For our debugging purposes it is useful to know

Thanks Graeme

Hi Graeme and Markus,

Yes, we have a release ready and we're just waiting a week to see if any major bugs arise before we officially announce it. Barring any major issues, we will follow up with you next week about the migration to git.

As for upgrades, I'm fine with going to 2.7.12, but we'd have to test everything before committing the change. Also, I was going to update numpy and migrate PIL to Pillow. There are some API changes going from PIL to Pillow and I think I had some issues with numpy, which is why they were not upgraded with the other packages. And since I have virtual machines already set up, testing should be faster.

Also, I'm looking into revamping the Phenix GUI in preparation for a migration to Python 3 in 2020 (Python 2 support ends in 2020). Since there is a lot of basic code that need to be rewritten for the GUI, I'm starting to prepare now. Are there any issues with moving to Python 3 in a few years? I think Boost should support Python 3, but I have not personally tested it.

Hi,

Looking at https://www.phenix-online.org/download/nightly_builds.cgi there is now a 1.11 build without 'rc' suffix available. Are we now in the one week cooling off period?
Will revive the move-to-git-schedule once we know more on this...

As one of the first post-phenix-release changes I would like to upgrade bootstrap from installing python 2.7.8 to python >=2.7.9. For obvious reasons I would suggest going directly to the current stable 2.7.12.
Are there any concerns regarding this?

-Markus

Good afternoon / morning / evening (depending on your locale)

I’m just running a bootstrap build and having to check out the whole of cctbx one … file … at … a … time from svn & it reminded me we were going to move over to git at some point – ISTR was determined by the PHENIX release.

Just wondering how this is going & how long it is likely to be until we can get this ball rolling :)

Thanks & best wishes Graeme
