08:21.26 MinuteElectron brlcad: I am nearly done on the website: just the sidebar to sort out.
08:21.33 MinuteElectron Not sure what to do, have you any ideas.
08:49.26 brlcad a few
08:50.01 brlcad no login needed on the main/front page -- there will be just one dedicated login page
08:50.43 brlcad the sidebar can have a login icon similar to haiku's or something else, but the whole form is a bit much
08:52.04 brlcad i see the sidebar having more frequently changing data and quick access to important information
08:53.13 brlcad some ideas include a downloads link, a direct link to the wiki, a direct bug-report link, and a running poll
08:53.40 MinuteElectron Cool.
08:54.51 brlcad frequently accessed docs, a picture/screenshot of the day are others (perhaps a random link into a matching Gallery2 image gallery)
08:55.49 MinuteElectron ok
11:12.18 *** join/#brlcad elite01 (n=elite01@dslb-088-070-015-134.pools.arcor-ip.net)
11:16.32 MinuteElectron I am having some difficulties brlcad - I cannot connect to your server from my home PC, but I can connect from someone elses server.
11:17.12 brlcad ooh, you might have gotten yourself firewalled
11:17.26 brlcad did you have several bad password attempts perhaps?
11:17.48 MinuteElectron I changed my password a few minutes\hours ago.
11:17.51 brlcad or lots of simultaneous connections
11:17.55 MinuteElectron But nothing since then.
11:17.56 Laniakea is it possible to include one .g file in another?
11:18.15 brlcad Laniakea: yes, see the mged quick reference, files section -- dbconcat
11:18.19 MinuteElectron brlcad: It is weird, the connection just dopped.
11:18.28 brlcad MinuteElectron: send me your IP
11:18.33 MinuteElectron 82.7.33.28
11:18.46 Laniakea brlcad: interesting
11:18.53 MinuteElectron I was in the middle of typing an IRC message then the connection timed out.
11:18.55 Laniakea brlcad: when will be the new brlcad homepage?
11:19.17 brlcad MinuteElectron: hm, you're not blocked
11:19.29 MinuteElectron I will go chat to the router manager.
11:19.31 brlcad probably just a temporary routting issue at your
11:19.41 brlcad local area, or your ISP, etc
11:19.57 MinuteElectron maybe, but I have my suspicions.
11:20.16 brlcad Laniakea: when it's done -- really hard to say -- have to begin populating the site next with a ton of info next
11:20.46 MinuteElectron I guess, nothing chaned on the router.
11:21.19 Laniakea what does -s and -p mean with dbconcat?
11:23.10 MinuteElectron I find it odd that I cannot ping or view web pages on the server either.
11:52.11 brlcad Laniakea: they indicate whether to append as a _suffix or a _prefix
11:52.53 brlcad the default is a straight up prefixOLDNAME with no underscore
11:52.53 brlcad the default is a straight up prefixOLDNAME with no underscoor no prefix if you don't specify one
11:53.28 brlcad e.g. if you use the File->Import menu option, it'll prompt you, for example
11:53.51 brlcad MinuteElectron: if it's a router, I'd expect that, though curiously I can ping your ip from .bz
11:54.07 Laniakea brlcad: is this used commonly to establish hierarchy?
11:54.08 brlcad which might indicate a different return route
11:54.25 brlcad Laniakea: to establish hierarchy? .. nnno
11:54.36 brlcad its used to pull in geometry usually from other files
11:54.41 MinuteElectron brlcad: dw
11:54.42 brlcad often used in conjunction with keep
11:54.50 Laniakea what does keep do?
11:55.07 brlcad keep extracts a portion of one .g file to its own file
11:55.24 brlcad like you could keep a bolt from your model, and dbconcat it into another to import it

13:55.30 ``Erik hey, feel free to download cygwin and compile it, if you give us a zip, we'll post it :)
13:55.41 ``Erik how can I make a windows binary if I don't have a windows machine?
