19:26.15 andrei_il brlcad : hi, when there's time, can you please have a look on the comment on my proposal? (I'm Andrei Ilinca) Thanks!
19:28.05 ``Erik pujani: BRL-CAD uses subversion, so no pull requests... just the patch tracker. Make sure you do something with the patch submission and gsoc application so we can go from one to the other (bidirectional association)

19:44.36 sofat ``Erik, Have you read this mail content ?
19:44.51 sofat I am waiting your reply
19:48.44 ``Erik sofat: yes, it's pretty simple...
19:48.47 pujani ``Erik, I have forked Materials Database from github and thinking to send the pull request
19:49.13 sofat means ?
19:49.59 ``Erik sofat: you have two sets of documents... "pending review" and "reviewed and ready for commit"... shove new stuff in a "pending review" directory... when someone clicks something, move the file to either a "reviewed and ready o commit" directory or a "rejected" directory... done!
19:50.35 ``Erik pujani: ah, sorry, there is some stuff on github and that can be done with pull requests. I thought you meant a change for BRL-CAD itself :)
19:53.19 pujani ``Erik, Ok Thanks I send pull request
19:54.44 dracarys983 ``Erik, any idea about where to add the surface normals in the output files for DXF and SAT export formats? Or should I make a new file and add them there?
20:00.15 sofat ``Erik, Thanks I also thought same and shared mock'ups in my proposal
20:01.29 sofat 1qqqqqq
20:04.08 ``Erik dracarys983: nope, not familiar with those formats... I'd google around for file format specifications and see if they handle explicit normals at all
20:05.56 dracarys983 ``Erik, Actually they don't have surface normals in their formats. So, I had to add an option for them. I was wondering whether it would be safe to add in the same file, because it might cause a problem reading them.
20:08.44 ``Erik I'd assume adding unexpected "junk" would be bad... typically, extra data that doesn't fit in a format is discarded, is there a reason that can't be done?
20:10.11 andrei_il ``Erik, hi!
20:10.31 andrei_il could you please look at the comment I left on my proposal? (I'm Andrei Ilinca )
20:10.51 andrei_il I m asking if the patches I submitted are/can be considered
20:14.00 ``Erik aw man, if I look at yours, I have to look at everyones! :D hold on a minute, melange is horrible...
20:14.56 dracarys983 ``Erik, I haven't seen the code that imports them and reads the file (if it's imported at all).
20:15.29 dracarys983 Well, I have assumed that extra data would be discarded and added the normals at the end. :P
20:15.30 ``Erik dracarys983: it looks like triangles in dxf infer normals from winding order
20:17.17 ``Erik andrei_il: 329 and 330?
20:17.23 andrei_il if it's easier, I can link the patches here and explain why I did them and see if it's reasonable
20:18.02 andrei_il 300 and 329
20:18.04 dracarys983 ``Erik : Yes, it has plane-surface as the keyword. So, that should suffice for surface normals then?
20:19.47 ``Erik dracarys983: probably? (though you can't do tricks like modifying the vertex normals to fake curves with like gouraud shading)
20:21.47 ``Erik andrei_il: does 300 belong to geomcore or something?

20:22.52 ``Erik 329 looks like the svn diff was done in src/conv instead of the project root?

20:27.28 andrei_il yes but the changes only affected it
20:31.41 andrei_il Is there any issue in that?
20:35.34 dracarys983 ``Erik: It already outputs normals there. VARGS3(norm). So, I need not add surface normals for -n option I guess? Sigh, I'm making a mess out of a simple thing.
20:38.51 dracarys983 Oh I'm sorry. I was looking at SAT's code. :(
20:43.16 ``Erik andrei_il: 329 looks technically correct but inadequate to be worth a patch. 330 deals with code I'm not up on, so I can't really comment
20:44.43 ``Erik has to help a 7yo with homework, probably won't be back tonight... hopes he helped a little (or at least didn't confuse things too much) :)
20:45.45 andrei_il ``Erik , thanks for the review
20:49.51 andrei_il ``Erik: (if you still here) why inadequate to be worth a patch , should I add some geometry parsing on it? Thanks

22:41.26 Notify 03BRL-CAD:starseeker * 64528 brlcad/trunk/src/libbn/polygon.c: Start stubbing in the hole handling logic.
