Welcome to the "official" Drizzle blog (more or less...)

Expect this place to be home to the "This Week In Drizzle" series and hopefully other relevant tidbits of information!

I'll be hacking up the WordPress theme to make it match the rest of the site more, and will be looking at adding links to the main contributors on the blogroll. More authors and key members will be added as well, so expect some good content soon :)

Our esteemed <a href="http://jpipes.com/" target="_blank">Jay Pipes</a> will conduct the first <a href="http://launchpad.net/drizzle">Drizzle</a> contributor code walk-through and build/install guide on June 4th at 4:00 p.m. PST (7:00 p.m. EST). He will go over the basics of using Bazaar and Launchpad for the contribution process, this will include:

<ul>
<li>How Drizzle's source code is organized</li>
<li>The build, debugging and testing toolset</li>
<li>Quick How-To for using Launchpad and Bazaar effectively</li>
<li>Overview of how the source code is structured (different modules, etc)</li>
<li>Details about some of the larger structures and classes used in Drizzle and how they work together</li>
<li>Explanation of how to create a skeleton plugin and test cases for your plugin</li>
<li>Q&A</li>
</ul>

Last month drizzle community was excited to be joined by 4 students as part of <a href="http://code.google.com/soc/" target="_blank">Gsoc</a>. As the summer of code has already kicked off , its time to better know the students and take a look on what they will be working on this summer, with their mentors and drizzle community at large.

<a title="Padraig's blog" href="http://posulliv.com/" target="_blank">Padraig O'Sullivan</a> (posulliv) is a graduate student in Electrical and Computer Engineering department at university of maryland. Padraig would be working on re-implementing Information_Schema for drizzle, his plans to tackle the problem can be found at the <a href="http://drizzle.org/wiki/GSOC_Information_Schema" target="_blank">project page</a> on <a href="http://drizzle.org/wiki" target="_blank">drizzle wiki</a>. <a href="www.jpipes.com/index.php" target="_blank">Jay pipes</a> would be mentoring padraig during his time as SOC student with drizzle. Padraig is from ireland which explains his love for beer :), before coming to US for post grad he was an intern at oracle dublin. Padraig is intrigued by scalable and distributed systems. Other than computers and code padraig likes to play guitar and drink beer. Padraig goes by the nick "posulliv" on twitter, IRC and launchpad.

Biping Meng (ABi) is a final year computer science student at nanjing university, china. Biping will work on refactoring and streamlining the <a title="wiki page" href="http://drizzle.org/wiki/GSOC_Pool_Threads_Scheduler" target="_blank">Pool of threads scheduler</a> with <a href="www.oddments.org/">Eric day</a> and Jay Pipes as mentors. Abi is interested in search engine and natural language processing and to that effect he did his internship at <a href="http://www.baidu.com/">Baidu</a> which is a popular search engine in china. Biping likes to play table tennis and badminton but mostly likes to code, his team was among top 20  in microsoft's imagine cup for developing a RTS game called Isles. He goes by the screenname <strong>llml</strong> on freenode and can also be found at <a href="https://launchpad.net/~mengbiping" target="_blank">launchpad</a>. 



[caption id="attachment_22" align="alignleft" width="150" caption="jasekidd"]<a href="http://173.203.216.19/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/jiangfeng.jpg"><img class="size-thumbnail wp-image-22 " src="http://173.203.216.19/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/jiangfeng-150x150.jpg" alt="jasekidd" width="150" height="150" /></a>[/caption]

Jiangfeng Peng (Jasekidd) is a computer science student at south china university of technology.  Jasekidd would be researching and identifying points of parallelization in drizzle runtime. Jay pipes and <a href="http://krow.net/" target="_blank">Brian Aker</a> would be mentoring Jasekidd during his work as Gsoc student. His major is high performance computing and multi threaded applications, in his spare time jasekidd likes to play badminton and basketball. He goes by the handle of jasepeng in IRC and launchpad. His project plans can be found at <a href="http://drizzle.org/wiki/GSOC_Parallelization_Runtime" target="_blank">drizzle wiki</a>.

[caption id="attachment_61" align="alignleft" width="150" caption="No recent pictures of nathan"]<a href="http://173.203.216.19/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/607.jpg"><img class="size-thumbnail wp-image-61" src="http://173.203.216.19/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/607-150x150.jpg" alt="No recent pictures" width="150" height="150" /></a>[/caption]

Nathan Williams (nlw) is a final year student at DigiPen institute of technology, his major is real time interactive simulation. Nathan will be working on refactoring and custom List&lt;&gt; implementation with STL's list, vector and queue for drizzle under mentorship of <a href="http://e-monty.com/" target="_blank">Monty taylor</a>. Nathan comes from computer network and security background, his passtimes are no different than his work time as he whiles away time programming and gazing at maths. He can be found by the screen name nlw both on IRC and freenode. His project progress would be logged at his <a href="http://drizzle.org/wiki/GSOC_List_Replacement" target="_self">wiki page</a>. Sadly couldn't grab his picture as he doesn't have any recent clicks.

Being the first year in SOC, its pretty exciting that students have taken a liking to work on challenging problems; with a small community and friendly mailing list, I am sure this is going to be one of the most productive SOC year for even times to come. Drizzle being some 1000  revisions old and its problem solving  plans would benefit a lot from SOC and students who have joined in. All the best to students and thanks to all mentors :)

Drizzle source tarball based on build 1055 has now been released. The change log can be viewed at https://launchpad.net/drizzle/trunk/aloha.

For this release we continue to focus on code clean up, build improvements, increased test coverage and performance improvements. We also removed LOCK TABLES, BIT_COUNT and BIT_LENGTH, made several logging improvements, started the first several phases of refactoring JOIN and provided initial support for gcc 4.4 although for now you still need <a href="https://lists.launchpad.net/drizzle-discuss/msg04208.html">Monty's patch</a> for protobuf to use gcc 4.4.

Jay along with help from many of you has done a great job automating a lot of our tools to provide Drizzle metrics to get a handle on how we are doing. You've seen the regular emails that now generate <a href="https://launchpad.net/sysbench">sysbench</a> numbers for each build, we also have regular automated builds to generate data for <a href="http://valgrind.org/">valgrind</a>, <a href="http://drizzle.org/lcov/">lcov</a>, <a href="http://drizzle.org/doxygen/">doxygen</a> and <a href="http://www.dwheeler.com/sloccount/">sloc</a>. Oh and lets not forget <a href="http://gorf.tangent.org/source/">OpenGrok</a> which was setup by Trond.

If you look at lcov we still have a few rough edges to work out and actually could use some help if any of you are familiar with the inner workings of lcov.

The sloc graph below is showing data going back to March. Nice steady progress downwards which in this case is great! The big drop around build 960 was due to plugin clean up work by Monty and the slight increase around build 984 was from protocol work from Eric (all necessary and important!). Now if we could get one of you to help generate a nice dynamic web page to display this information......any takers?

See <a href="http://drizzle.org/wiki/Image:Drizzle_Lines_of_Code.pdf">here</a> for a pdf of the graph

I won't re-post what has already been said on the other blogs, but this seemed like a great central place to share the news.

After a couple months of trying to hunt down the mysterious little gnome causing headache to the team, it seems Eric stumbled upon the solution, probably in the shower, where all good ideas come to us. Take a look at his blog post for all the sexy statistics (last link) - I assume he did all the work after the shower, of course. Safety first, Eric!

Drizzle source tarball based on <a href="https://launchpad.net/drizzle/trunk/aloha">build 1088</a> has been released. The change log can be viewed <a href="https://launchpad.net/drizzle/trunk/aloha">here</a>. While continuing to do a lot of great code clean up, this release also features work by Padraig who has got a great start working on extracting I_S out into plugins.

We also now support <a href="http://code.google.com/p/protobuf/">protobuf 2.1</a> except when using gcc 4.4 or if you are running on Solaris. Monty is working on getting a patch into protobuf 2.1.1 for the gcc 4.4 issue. He is also working closely with the SunStudio engineers to get that issue resolved as well.
