2 Technical Board

This topic on our agenda should improve the information flow between the Technical Board and the society members and ILIAS users.

• We kindly ask all developers to not close Mantis-Issues related to ILIAS 8 after the end of full support on January 1st 2025.
• The Technical Board is currently working on the classification and evaluation of the “Big Projects”.

3 Miscellaneous

3.1 Feature Wiki

The product manager has revised the structure of the template for feature requests: Creating A New Feature Page. Instead of many H1 headlines, all commenting entries on technical aspects, privacy and so on are now categorised under Additional Information. In addition, the specification of authorities has been changed. And the previous information in Contact has been distributed to the corresponding sections.

The template is now available for all new feature requests. The product manager is gradually converting FRs for 11 to the new structure. Anyone who wants to help here is very welcome.

3.2 UI Clinic

Our UI/UX/A11y experts Yvonne Seiler, Kristina Auerswald and Kendra Grotz are offering bi-weekly UI clinic consultation hours for UI/UX and accessibility topics. The consultation hours are open for all users that need or are interested in related help for their ILIAS development activities. The UI Clinic consultation take place every Wednesday before the Jour Fixe from 10h30 to 11h30.

If you are interested in discussing an issue, please register here!.

3.3 Privacy Clinic

In the Privacy Clinic, you can get advice on how to protect user privacy and effectively navigate the complexities of data protection in the context of ILIAS. Our privacy experts Seidel, Elyesa [seidel], Gribchenko, Kseniia [ksgrie] and a member of the Technical Board are offerin support in all privacy related issues. The Privacy Clinic has consultation hours every Wednesday after the Jour Fixe from 11h00 to 12h00. Please announce the topic you want to discuss by e-mail: privacy@lists.ilias.de

All cases should have been added by now, as the test runs for release 10 will be set up early this week.

4. PR 8541 • Composer: Add mustache/mustache as dependency  
   
   • Suggested by: Haagen, Nils [nlz]
   • Status of maintenance: The library is widely used by many PHP projects. It has 41 contributors, but most contributions have been made by one person. There is no visible backing from any organisation. There haven't been any releases for over a year.

   • Used by: Provides the dependency injection container that is used as a service locator throughout the system. Will most likely be used as the DIC solution for the new initialisation scheme introduced with the component revision.
   • Decision: Dependency is accepted for ILIAS 11.
9. PR 8546 • Composer: add filp/whoops as dependency

15. PR 8552 • Composer: Add `cweagans/composer-patches` as dependency  
    
    • Suggested by: Jansen, Michael [mjansen]
    • Status of maintenance: Composer Patches is still maintained, mostly by "cweagans (Cameron Eagans)" and supported by other contributors. There is not much activity in general, but the plugin is so to speak "feature-complete". There is activity if there are security vulnerabilities (Dependabot pull requests are merged) and if changes were made in Composer itself which require the plugin to adapt.
    • Used by: During composer install and composer upgrade
    • Decision: Dependency is rejected for ILIAS 11. We kindly ask @mjansenDatabay to try to push the patch we need for phpmailer\phpmailer-upstream, if this does not work, we ask @mjansenDatabay to add the dependency again.

    • Suggested by: Jansen, Michael [mjansen]

    • Decision: Dependency is accepted for ILIAS 11.
17. PR 8557 • Composer: Add `phpstan/phpstan` as dev dependency  
    
    • Suggested by: Jansen, Michael [mjansen]
    • Status of maintenance: PHPStan is a very active project (see: https://github.com/phpstan/phpstan/graphs/commit-activity), code was committed even this week (see: https://github.com/phpstan/phpstan/commits/1.11.x). There is one main contributor (ondrejmirtes) supported by other open source enthusiasts (and financially by some well known organizations).
    • Used by: PHPStan finds issues in the ILIAS code without writing tests. It detects architectural smells in our application based on rule definitions (see: scripts/PHPStan/Rules). It is used in the GitHub CI pipeline (see: .github/workflows/legacy-ui.yml). PHPStan makes use of the AST (abstract syntax tree) and is capable to analyze our ILIAS PHP code statically.
    • Decision: Dependency is accepted for ILIAS 11. We try to support version 2.0, if @mjansenDatabay finds too many issues with migrating scripts, also the most current 1.* version is accepted.
18. PR 8559 • Composer: Add `ramsey/uuid` as dependency  
    
    • Suggested by: Jansen, Michael [mjansen]

    • Decision: Dependency is accepted for ILIAS 11. Please use the version 5.* if it can be used.
20. PR 8562 • Composer: Add firebase/php-jwt as dependency  
    
    • Suggested by: Cazalla Vázquez, Daniel [Zallax]
    • Status of maintenance: The php-jwt dependency, maintained by Google's Firebase team, provides robust support for JWT handling with regular updates, ensuring reliability and alignment with current security standards.
    • Used by: LTIConsumer & LTIProvider components and wrapped by components/ILIAS/LTIConsumer and components/ILIAS/LTIProvider
    • Decision: Dependency is accepted for ILIAS 11.

    • Suggested by: Scharmer, Lukas [lscharmer]
    • Status of maintenance: mysql2 is actively maintained and regularly updated (The latest release is from 28.11.2024).

23. PR 8565 • Composer: Add celtic/lti as dependency  
    
    • Suggested by: Cazalla Vázquez, Daniel [Zallax]
    • Status of maintenance: Actively maintained with 49 releases and a recent update (v5.1.4) released 2 weeks ago. The library is developed by a dedicated team of contributors and has consistent updates to align with evolving LTI standards.
    • Used by: LTIConsumer & LTIProvider components and wrapped by components/ILIAS/LTIConsumer and components/ILIAS/LTIProvider
    • Decision: Dependency is accepted for ILIAS 11.
24. PR 8566 • Chatroom: Add `uuid`  
    
    • Suggested by: Scharmer, Lukas [lscharmer]
    • Status of maintenance: uuid is a well maintained package with a lot of contributions. It is an active project, the latest release is from 04.11.2024.

    • Used by: components/ILIAS/Chatroom/chat/Bootstrap/SetupEnvironment.js (instance creation and configuration) and components/ILIAS/Chatroom/chat/* (the logger instance is used in many JS files.)
    • Decision: Dependency is accepted for ILIAS 11.
27. PR 8570 • NPM: Add `moment`  
    
    • Suggested by: Scharmer, Lukas [lscharmer]
    • Status of maintenance:
    • Used by:
      • Calendar: ./components/ILIAS/Calendar/classes/class.ilCalendarUtil.php
      • Legacy Forms: implicitly by ilCalendarUtil in the ilDateTimeInputGUI field type
      • OnScreenChat: ./components/ILIAS/OnScreenChat/js/moment.js It is mainly (but not only) used to display relative dates and especially times (locale aware) in the conversation windows.

    • Decision: We reject this Dependency for ILIAS 11 as there seems to be only one usage in the chat and the library is not well maintained.
