| 01:02.44 | starseeker | brlcad: what were you worried about with the merging of the NEWS file from the 7.12.6 branch? | 
| 01:06.43 | starseeker | nevermind, I see | 
| 01:17.46 | Twingy | heh | 
| 01:47.01 | brlcad | pokes in | 
| 01:47.23 | brlcad | starseeker: there are options to pull only open, only closed, only closed with N days (that's what I usually use) | 
| 01:47.33 | brlcad | er, open and closed within N days | 
| 01:48.23 | starseeker | OK, so anything that's appeared since the last CCB, and anything that's been closed since then as well? | 
| 01:48.24 | brlcad | and yeah, ``Erik is spot on about detail -- they wanted even more than what that report generates (e.g. needs to include the entire discussion log) | 
| 01:48.49 | brlcad | anything open (since it's still a prioritization issue) and anything closed since last ccb | 
| 01:49.03 | starseeker | ick. OK, anything open | 
| 01:49.16 | starseeker | I can pull the discussion logs - it'll take time though | 
| 01:49.19 | brlcad | but he's also right in that there's usually nowhere near enough time to go over everything .. it'd take all day to do more than skim | 
| 01:49.38 | brlcad | I wouldn't worry about it, I've yet to include them | 
| 01:49.50 | brlcad | unless you want to | 
| 01:50.13 | starseeker | will see how his patience holds out | 
| 01:50.25 | brlcad | it would be a nice touch for someone that cared, but that will take probably an hour to do manually and probably a couple hours to properly script it | 
| 01:50.27 | starseeker | What's the color code for formatting | 
| 01:50.42 | starseeker | would just pull the highlight discussions | 
| 01:50.43 | brlcad | oh, hell, do you have the last one? | 
| 01:50.49 | starseeker | somewhere | 
| 01:51.02 | brlcad | could use that as a guide -- that was done manually | 
| 01:51.16 | starseeker | may not have survived the move - let me see | 
| 01:51.34 | starseeker | can make something up, what with new head honcho and all... | 
| 01:52.00 | brlcad | i usually highlight the high-priority ones, sort based on artifact type followed by status (closed/open) followed by priority .. or something like that | 
| 01:52.20 | brlcad | usually alternating sections formatted so it's easy to read, etc | 
| 01:52.29 | brlcad | fitted to A4 | 
| 01:52.34 | starseeker | A4? | 
| 01:52.42 | brlcad | the big paper | 
| 01:52.50 | starseeker | I know - where do we print it around here? | 
| 01:52.58 | brlcad | printer has it | 
| 01:53.03 | starseeker | huh. OK | 
| 01:53.07 | brlcad | photocopier too | 
| 01:53.48 | starseeker | brlcad: I doubt I'll get through it tonight, but I'll try to have something ready for you to check by Mon. or Tues. next week | 
| 01:54.24 | starseeker | what about the mailing list, if they want discussions? | 
| 01:55.05 | brlcad | just as a guide, I've usually spent no more than a couple hours improving the scripts each time and a half hour formatting | 
| 01:55.25 | starseeker | scripts actually worked :-) | 
| 01:55.31 | brlcad | kinda disgusting to spend more time preparing for the meeting than the meeting itself lasts, so no worries keeping it minimal | 
| 01:55.34 | brlcad | great | 
| 01:55.47 | brlcad | you see the html entities that need to be replaced? | 
| 01:55.54 | starseeker | yeah, I think I got em | 
| 01:55.57 | brlcad | they're in the comments | 
| 01:55.59 | brlcad | ah, ki | 
| 01:56.10 | starseeker | vim global search and replace ftw | 
| 01:56.26 | brlcad | don't include the mailing lists (or any of the discussion channels) | 
| 01:56.33 | starseeker | right | 
| 01:56.38 | brlcad | that's not the ccb's business | 
| 01:57.18 | starseeker | is bemused at the thought of the ccb going over an IRC discussion of ``Erik toasting people in forum based space wars | 
| 01:58.21 | brlcad | the primary point of the meeting is to simply review what has happened since the last review to 1) see what they might impact users (analysts, modelers, developers), 2) disseminate/share our changes so folks know about them, and 3) give our users a forum to provide feedback/questions/concerns | 
| 01:58.57 | brlcad | basically performing a peer review in a semi-open forum | 
| 01:59.14 | starseeker | brlcad: heh. OK. I made the mistake of reading that CCB document Ed has defining the purpose of the CCB | 
| 01:59.47 | brlcad | there has been argument over that in the past, it's not actually right | 
| 02:00.05 | brlcad | it started modeled after a different code that has an entirely different process | 
| 02:00.23 | brlcad | orca's document is actually closer | 
| 02:00.33 | brlcad | we need to formally publish an updated version that is correct | 
| 02:01.04 | brlcad | which basically amounts to the HACKING file with details about how things pertain to ARL | 
| 02:01.52 | brlcad | the controlling authority and "change approval" as presently worded is bogus | 
| 02:01.59 | starseeker | I think Ed would feel better if we had a new one :-) | 
| 02:05.00 | brlcad | the biggest issue is that it's all overhead (a negative time sink) that could literally take months of time away from development if not careful | 
| 02:05.08 | starseeker | nods | 
| 02:05.10 | brlcad | it's like the scripts -- they could easily turn into a nice/fancy tool | 
| 02:05.24 | brlcad | but ultimately, they're a negative on development .. even from a communication perspective | 
| 02:05.43 | starseeker | I'll be very interested to see how the new boss works at the CCB - it should be instructive | 
| 02:06.38 | brlcad | <PROTECTED> | 
| 02:06.55 | brlcad | she'll want to emphasize how to better get the word out | 
| 02:07.13 | brlcad | since arl users often don't pay attention to what we say, don't know what we do | 
| 02:07.32 | starseeker | I think there'll be questions about how we set our priorities too | 
| 02:07.37 | brlcad | it's a mild chicken n' egg problem | 
| 02:08.25 | starseeker | favors hauling them into the library's meeting hall and showing off :-P | 
| 02:09.04 | brlcad | I did that one year | 
| 02:09.09 | yukonbob | waves in: "Hello, cadheads" | 
| 02:09.18 | starseeker | waste of time? | 
| 02:09.20 | brlcad | a couple dozen showed up, somewhat waste of time | 
| 02:09.22 | starseeker | waves back | 
| 02:09.27 | starseeker | nuts | 
| 02:09.54 | brlcad | and took a fair bit of time to prepare, negative time sink | 
| 02:10.12 | brlcad | the real goal from our perspective is like most open source projects -- the demand is WAY higher than capacity | 
| 02:10.25 | brlcad | it's all vaporware and talk until a product is actually *released* | 
| 02:11.01 | starseeker | nods. I would place a $10 bet that some open source education will be needed | 
| 02:11.14 | brlcad | so that really is our best communication means -- getting the features out there sooner, fast/faster frequent iterations, make noise accordingly | 
| 02:11.44 | brlcad | not getting everyone's buy-in on what we're going to do beforehand, not micromanaging how we do what we do | 
| 02:12.03 | starseeker | Dwayne came by just today and mentioned some guys at LLNL (I think it was LLNL) were interested in building models with BRL-CAD | 
| 02:12.21 | brlcad | we talk plenty (here, on forums, on mailing list, in person) -- it's more about actually "getting things done" | 
| 02:12.39 | starseeker | absolutely | 
| 02:12.57 | starseeker | he was gonna send them tire.exe :-) | 
| 02:13.05 | brlcad | cool | 
| 02:13.20 | starseeker | forgot we don't have an exe on sourceforge that has tire | 
| 02:13.38 | brlcad | is it hooked into the windows build? | 
| 02:13.56 | starseeker | It is now - that's actually a news item somewhere | 
| 02:14.06 | starseeker | Bob hooked in all the proc-db stuff, IIRC | 
| 02:14.18 | brlcad | ah, right | 
| 02:28.52 | starseeker | brlcad: How do you sort this sucker? By date of closure, then date opened for still open ones? keep the NEWS items in the front for a quick overview? | 
| 02:29.57 | brlcad | points up | 
| 02:30.28 | brlcad | 21:55 <@brlcad> i usually highlight the high-priority ones, sort based on artifact type followed by status (closed/open) followed by priority .. or something like that | 
| 02:30.31 | brlcad | 21:56 <@brlcad> usually alternating sections formatted so it's easy to read, etc | 
| 02:30.37 | starseeker | what's "artifact type" mean? | 
| 02:30.53 | brlcad | the type of line it is | 
| 02:30.53 | starseeker | slaps self with wet noodle for not reading log | 
| 02:31.09 | brlcad | NEWS, bug, feature request, patch, etc | 
| 02:31.15 | starseeker | Gotcha | 
| 02:31.19 | brlcad | there's a couple tricks to get it sorted neatly | 
| 02:31.28 | brlcad | want news first | 
| 02:31.36 | starseeker | sub-section column based sorting? | 
| 02:31.52 | brlcad | i think descending on that column actually conveniently works out iirc | 
| 02:32.04 | starseeker | Cool. | 
| 02:32.07 | brlcad | no, the sorts work out globally | 
| 02:32.23 | brlcad | you apply one rule-based filter set with two or three sort rules | 
| 02:32.51 | brlcad | might have used "category, priority, status" last time | 
| 02:33.18 | brlcad | careful to use the tracker ID number -- it shows up initially as a string | 
| 02:33.37 | brlcad | I usually select the columns and set their data type where it matters | 
| 02:33.55 | brlcad | so the dates are dates and not strings, so they sort properly | 
| 02:33.59 | starseeker | Ah. | 
| 02:34.12 | brlcad | (if you wanted to sort by date, of course) | 
| 02:34.25 | brlcad | I forget exactly which sorting works out best | 
| 02:34.48 | starseeker | will figure it out | 
| 02:35.13 | starseeker | wonders if we can get Ed to "run the show"... | 
| 02:35.20 | brlcad | the point, though it to put the stuff done most recent first, and then go back in time .. emphasizing news then patches then closed bugs/feature requests/support, then everything else | 
| 02:35.47 | brlcad | nah, I'll probably still do it | 
| 02:36.07 | brlcad | ed doesn't know what the items are, needs to be a dev that can talk to most of the items | 
| 02:36.15 | starseeker | nods | 
| 02:36.33 | starseeker | is sorry he can't spare brlcad having so much time eaten up... | 
| 02:36.36 | brlcad | the information is incomplete, hard enough to remember what some of them are in the moment | 
| 02:36.56 | brlcad | it's a fixed point cost so long as we don't promise to do more than absolutely necessary | 
| 02:37.00 | brlcad | couple times a year is fine | 
| 02:37.19 | starseeker | erm - should I take out the patches to rt^3 stuff? | 
| 02:37.22 | brlcad | it's if we get signed up for it to be an even bigger negative time sync | 
| 02:37.37 | brlcad | were they tracker items? | 
| 02:37.44 | starseeker | yeah | 
| 02:37.46 | brlcad | sure | 
| 02:38.05 | brlcad | it's a talking point showing open source contributions | 
| 02:38.15 | starseeker | so leave em in? | 
| 02:38.23 | brlcad | yeah | 
| 02:38.28 | starseeker | cool | 
| 02:39.08 | brlcad | in the past, I've actually gone over each item and labelled whether they are an "open source contribution" or not .. but that does usually take another hour or so | 
| 02:39.24 | brlcad | I'd only do that if we run into a problem | 
| 02:40.39 | brlcad | requires a bit of pontificating on the news items as to whether the change was done "on the clock" or off it for those of us that dip into the open source hobby time | 
| 02:40.50 | starseeker | nods | 
| 02:41.06 | starseeker | rather not dig into that one, personally - gets too confusing :-) | 
| 02:41.32 | *** join/#brlcad zolcos (n=zolcos@aeheathe.resnet.mtu.edu) | |
| 02:43.05 | brlcad | yeah, it's only if the bean counters need (or strongly want) the beans .. and it'll actually pay off and not just be a counting exercise | 
| 02:43.25 | brlcad | with W, it actually helped get the point across and the numbers still help to this day | 
| 02:43.36 | brlcad | I just pulled stats for her last week, though the entire past year | 
| 02:43.39 | brlcad | very interesting | 
| 02:43.49 | starseeker | heh | 
| 02:44.00 | starseeker | you mean your personal on/off clock? | 
| 02:44.04 | brlcad | going to send a news announcement out, but basically about 6 staff years of contributed time this past year | 
| 02:44.11 | starseeker | wow | 
| 02:44.23 | brlcad | level of open source contributions is the meter usually, as well as overall activity | 
| 02:45.04 | brlcad | 70 distinct "features" contributed as open source | 
| 02:45.13 | brlcad | (out of about 175 total) | 
| 02:45.26 | brlcad | 280 mailing lists posts :) | 
| 02:45.39 | brlcad | (not including brlcad-commits or brlcad-tracker) | 
| 02:45.46 | starseeker | surprised W is still tracking the numbers | 
| 02:46.18 | brlcad | about 220,000 measured downloads, which is an increase of 20% over last y ear | 
| 02:46.27 | starseeker | eeep | 
| 02:47.20 | brlcad | the one negative mark, though .. our average age of a tracker item increased from 484 days to 517 days by the end of the year (turn-around time) | 
| 02:47.34 | brlcad | which means there are still more support requests coming in than are being handled | 
| 02:48.03 | starseeker | must work faster | 
| 02:48.08 | brlcad | :) | 
| 02:48.15 | brlcad | cracks a whip on richard | 
| 02:49.25 | brlcad | interestingly, 110 new tracker items (bugs, patches, support, feature requests) came in and 128 were closed | 
| 02:50.23 | brlcad | 28/18 for open/closed on feature requests; 7/9 for support; 28/26 for patches; and 46/75 for bugs | 
| 02:50.36 | brlcad | the first is bad, the last is great | 
| 02:51.05 | starseeker | to be fair, some of those feature requests are virtually meta-feature requests | 
| 02:52.27 | brlcad | that contributed manpower estimate is the most impressive -- it's not far from being on par with arl funding capacity, probably will exceed it as the community continues to grow | 
| 02:53.23 | starseeker | that's a pretty compelling stat | 
| 02:53.28 | brlcad | gives it two years .. right about the time that the new interface is ready for production use to replace mged | 
| 02:56.05 | brlcad | thinks the portage ebuild needs a kick | 
| 02:56.22 | starseeker | needs a friggin sledgehammer | 
| 02:56.44 | brlcad | someone just posted an mged failure to find tk .. probably just a build setting | 
| 02:58.34 | starseeker | is sure he'll probably have to manually insert a few items into this thing before the CCB - but it's nice to have it more or less "ready to go" ahead of time | 
| 02:59.07 | starseeker | is still convinced the only way to get a proper BRL-CAD ebuild into portage is to become a gentoo dev | 
| 02:59.39 | brlcad | the important one to review are the comments/description on the news items since that's where the time is focused | 
| 03:00.09 | brlcad | usually have to add a few commments, say how it relates to arl if it specifically impacts | 
| 03:00.35 | starseeker | nods | 
| 03:02.22 | zolcos | Hello. I'm with the acoustic project, I have a question-- | 
| 03:02.43 | zolcos | the team has discovered how to fire rays, calculate distances, attenuation, and so on, but when we go to add the first usable feature (that is, point query), what interface options do we have? | 
| 03:02.51 | brlcad | howdy zolcos | 
| 03:03.22 | brlcad | zolcos: you mean for displaying results of a calculation? | 
| 03:03.49 | zolcos | Yes, and for initiating a calculation. | 
| 03:03.52 | brlcad | what sort of data/interface are you wanting to present? | 
| 03:04.37 | zolcos | The point query would just take in a x,y,z and output a single decibel level | 
| 03:04.43 | starseeker | yick - 28 pages | 
| 03:04.48 | brlcad | initiating a calculation sounds like just a command, button, or menu item | 
| 03:07.35 | zolcos | That sounds right. How can I add new commands? | 
| 03:07.52 | Ralith | zolcos: acoustic project? | 
| 03:07.54 | brlcad | zolcos: if you want the user to interact with a 3D interface, you can hook into mged pretty easily -- our "nirt" command does almost exactly what it sounds like you're doing where (in mged) the user can either type "nirt" on the command line to get a queried result based on the view center, or they can click in the 3D view and get an interactive query along that ray | 
| 03:09.14 | brlcad | zolcos: you can either hook in at compile-time (via C, which could let you embed practically any other scripting layer) or at run-time (via tcl, just a text file that is loaded) | 
| 03:09.28 | brlcad | the simplest/fastest is going to be the latter | 
| 03:09.37 | brlcad | the prior has a lot more power and integration options | 
| 03:10.02 | Ralith | brlcad: might not be the simplest/fastest if they're not familiar with tcl and/or have to hook it into some existing codebase | 
| 03:10.35 | brlcad | well yes, tcl knowledge is a prerequisite for the latter, though tcl scripting is pretty trivial -- sorta like php | 
| 03:11.03 | brlcad | and you could even write a simple tcl proc that loads a compiled tcl extension (written in compiled language of choice) | 
| 03:12.47 | starseeker | brlcad: OK, think I got it | 
| 03:13.15 | starseeker | (sans going through news comments) | 
| 03:13.27 | brlcad | for what you guys are doing, since you have a C proggie that hooks into the brl-cad libs, I'd think a tcl proc would be the way to go and just have it exec your binary as a command-line command | 
| 03:13.50 | starseeker | heads home - I'll probably have to leave sometime around 3pm tomorrow brlcad, just fyi | 
| 03:15.00 | zolcos | I'm not sure I follow -- we don't actually have any code written yet, so our options are still completely open | 
| 03:16.37 | Ralith | zolcos: brlcad has described options for adding your functionality to the mged interface | 
| 03:19.20 | brlcad | zolcos: then what did you mean when you said you figured out how to fire rays, calculate distances, etc? :) | 
| 03:20.34 | brlcad | you can actually script brl-cad in pretty much any language by exec'ing nirt or one of the other tracers to query rays | 
| 03:21.02 | zolcos | Ah, that. We do have testing code and assorted functionality -- I thought you were saying we had an existing calculation module ready lol | 
| 03:21.03 | brlcad | (or write your own tracer that hooks into our librt library) | 
| 03:21.22 | brlcad | okay, so you do hook into librt and call rt_shootray() somewhere :) |

| 15:40.30 | starseeker | iandaletter: Do you have a sourceforge account? | 
| 15:41.06 | starseeker | Probably the best way to handle translations is to go ahead and commit them to the repository | 
| 15:41.19 | iandaletter | starseeker: no, because i pay us $ for 10 mb aday, 5 mb at night. web-serfing is... not really for me | 
| 15:41.34 | iandaletter | starseeker: ? | 
| 15:42.06 | starseeker | Um. Sourceforge is where BRL-CAD's main repository is stored and we use subversion to make updates to it | 
| 15:42.17 | iandaletter | what is a link to that .xml file? /doc/docbook/... ? I has forgot it | 
| 15:42.20 | starseeker | you can get a sourceforge account free | 
| 15:42.33 | iandaletter | let me send updates to you... at least at start of all | 
| 15:43.17 | starseeker | oh, um... - this is a good example xml file: http://brlcad.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/brlcad/brlcad/trunk/doc/docbook/system/man1/search.xml?view=log | 
| 15:43.35 | starseeker | iandaletter: Ok, if you'd prefer to send them to me that's great | 
| 15:43.36 | iandaletter | i know, but in internet, i'm usually in IRC... Later, when the market will be able to offer it, i will have bought probably 3G-modem... | 
| 15:44.13 | iandaletter | ok, i will see the example soon at after my midnight | 
| 15:44.59 | starseeker | iandaletter: That file is pretty much the style we're going to use for all commands, one file per command - if you'd prefer to just translate existing pages that's OK too, I can sort it out | 
| 15:45.28 | iandaletter | will see... | 
| 15:45.29 | starseeker | iandaletter: You don't HAVE to have every section that search has, search is pretty extensive | 
| 15:45.53 | starseeker | iandaletter: Thank you for your interest in working on this |

| 15:47.32 | iandaletter | starseeker: i actually wanted a chance to be in "they have somehow helped" section of the book of BRL-CAD - i.e. wanted to show it to my 'employer'. but nevermind | 
| 15:48.31 | starseeker | iandaletter: why nevermind? You're definitely going to be contributing | 
| 15:49.01 | starseeker | individual docbook files are built up into larger books | 
| 15:50.01 | iandaletter | ok, later we will have a time for different "proposals", "benefits", "fame", "girls", dirt money, big money, cars and so on... | 
| 15:51.15 | starseeker | brlcad handles the management of the credit sections (like AUTHORS file here http://brlcad.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/brlcad/brlcad/trunk/AUTHORS?view=log) and he keeps track of who is doing work - he will not miss your efforts | 
| 15:51.33 | iandaletter | ok! | 
| 15:52.57 | starseeker | once we start getting them integrated into BRL-CAD proper, of course :-) | 
| 15:54.06 | starseeker | decides not eating one meal was a mistake, and not eating two would be a worse mistake... | 
| 15:55.06 | iandaletter | i don't really know much about it yet, i mean about the world of open source... night builds and so on... Don't have cheap internet connection... But i will probably have it soon... even thru mobile cell phone. |
