“I’m spitting image of darts sensation Luke Littler – strangers mistake me for him”

Posted on by Michael G
A man is loving his striking resemblance to teenage darts sensation Luke Littler – as mates jokingly ask what he plans to do with the prize money.

Sarah Marshall, 31, posted a video of her partner, Christopher Roger, 33, watching the darts – but less eagled-eyed viewers could have easily mistaken him for the world number 2.

While Christopher sat watching the two-time World Darts Championship finalist before his third-round tie on the 29th December, Sarah casually panned round to her partner who shares a remarkably similar side profile.

Sarah jokingly quipped “how is Luke Littler on my TV and sat in my living room?” as Christopher – who doesn’t see the resemblance – shook his head.

The video has since racked up over three million views and over 250,000 likes with many also seeing the similarities.

ComputerMinds.co.uk: Views Data Export: Sprint 2 Summary

Posted on by Michael G

I’ve started working on maintaining Views Data Export again.

I’ve decided to document my work in 2 week ‘sprints’. And so this article is about what I did in Sprint 2.

Sprint progress

At the start of the sprint in the Drupal.org issue queue there were:

  • 91 open bugs
  • 17 fixed issues.
  • 81 other open issues

That’s a total of 189 open issues.

By the end it looked like this:

  • 48 open bugs
  • 4 fixed issues.
  • 63 other open issues

So that’s a total of 115 open issues, a 39% reduction from before!

Key goals

In this sprint I wanted to:

  • Get the project page updated with information relevant to Drupal 8.x-1.x version of the module
  • Not have any support requests untouched in 1 month. I.e. basically be dealing with all support requests.

The project page

I did a bit of a light edit on the page to bring it up to date, using information from the README file and the existing project page. It still needs some work, but as we get the project in a better state we can revisit and sort things out as needed.

Support requests

I went through all the support requests and tried to helpfully close them down. Some of them changed to bugs or feature requests. Most were simply hideously out of date and just needed closing down sadly. But, they were mostly noise in the issue queue rather than helpful things.

After I did support requests, I started the process of going through all the open bugs and closing down the ones that weren’t going to be solved or asking for more information about the ones that we can/should solve. I opened all 91 in one go and promptly got myself blocked from accessing Drupal.org for a few minutes, which was a bit annoying, but I got access back and then went through them slowly. I didn’t manage to get through them all in this sprint, but hopefully we’ll get there in the next sprint!

Future roadmap/goals

I’m not committing myself to doing these exactly, or any particular order, but this is my high-level list of hopes/dreams/desires, I’ll copy and paste this to the next sprint summary article as I go and adjust as required.

  • Update the documentation on Drupal.org
  • Not have any duplicate issues on Drupal.org
