| 02:10.15 | Lord_kk | Hi guys :) I am in need of some help with this google-melangetask (https://www.google-melange.com/gci/task/view/google/gci2014/5310294628761600). I have already created a 512x512 image with the requirements, but have no idea as to how to turn it into a bw image. I couldnât find the png-bw command, and whenever I input the manual code it tells me that âjoinbrlcad/binpix-bwâ is a bad option. Any help with this? |

| 02:37.10 | nmz787 | anyone know why mged would stop responding to keyboard input? |
| 02:42.33 | Lord_kk | this sounds really stupid, but have you tried closing it completly then re-opening it? |
| 02:45.24 | andromeda-galaxy | nmz787: just to check, on Linux at least, the tcl windows used by mged seem to sometimes lose focus if the mouse cursor isn't over the text entry area... |
| 02:50.03 | nmz787 | I closed the window with alt-f4, but since I launched it from the cmd prompt, I went to that terminal but mged didn't quit (so the terminal wasn't back to the prompt)... so then I did killall mged |
| 02:50.17 | nmz787 | and after starting again it started to happen again |

| 19:53.00 | albertcoder | they point me to semantic mediawiki |
| 19:53.14 | albertcoder | They highly recommend using it |
| 19:53.52 | albertcoder | I discussed with them about the requirements and features of materials database extension |
| 19:54.27 | albertcoder | and they are horribly serious that I should use semantic mediawiki for that . :P |
| 19:56.26 | albertcoder | I too explored it. It is really cool for storing key:value stuff like we have property:value system in our extension |

| 20:11.29 | maths22 | DId you see my documentation browser a few days ago? |
| 20:11.29 | brlcad | structurally, I todon't think it matters much if it's mediawiki or not, but it's a good philosophical fit |
| 20:11.47 | brlcad | maths22: i am WAY behind on IRC.... so probably not |
| 20:11.59 | maths22 | OK |
| 20:12.07 | maths22 | http://brlcad.org/docbrowser/svnDocbook/Documents/browse/doc/docbook/ |
| 20:13.05 | albertcoder | okay brlcad I will let you know shortly if SMW can be of any help. |
| 20:13.39 | brlcad | albertcoder: I think the importance of mediawiki is a little conflated |
| 20:14.17 | brlcad | we definitely want interactive documentation, but there's not as compelling justification to force benchmark and materialsdb to use it |
| 20:14.29 | brlcad | they could just as well be custom infrastructure if it worked |
| 20:14.58 | brlcad | at this point, I think it's more important that it's infrastructure that is taken to some useful completion, put into production use and made available to users (integrated in with our tools) |
| 20:14.59 | maths22 | brlcad: I actually created this documentation browser with the goal of developing it into a documentation editor |
| 20:16.15 | brlcad | maths22: that's pretty interesting |
| 20:16.29 | brlcad | what's the infrastructure? |
| 20:16.39 | brlcad | something you wrote or based on something? |
| 20:16.52 | maths22 | I wrote it |
| 20:17.04 | albertcoder | okay so what I can sense is that for now I need to work down the way we were going. brlcad |
| 20:17.33 | maths22 | It pulls from svn the list of files in a directoriy, and if they have an xml extension, it offers a link to render them with docbook |
| 20:18.00 | brlcad | albertcoder: yes! and that will heavily depend on your interests and motivation (within some constraints) |

| 20:18.39 | brlcad | e.g., creating a big java infrastructure would probably be a last resort as that's rather heavy to set up and doesn't play well with our other services as easily as some other options |
| 20:18.56 | brlcad | albertcoder: what's the current code look like? |
| 20:19.20 | brlcad | maths22: is it rendering them on the fly or caching or something? |
| 20:19.29 | maths22 | Right now, rendering on the fly |
| 20:19.49 | albertcoder | brlcad: look like means? coding standards? |
| 20:19.54 | maths22 | That's why it is so slow |
| 20:20.01 | maths22 | It also was written in a couple hours, so caching is the next step |
| 20:20.29 | maths22 | Probably by using a local svn checkout |
| 20:20.34 | Notify | 02GCI:rossberg * 5269456200663040 : Task Assigned - This task has been assigned to James1f. You have 100 hours to complete this task, good luck! |
| 20:21.27 | brlcad | albertcoder: not at all... |
| 20:22.10 | albertcoder | Sorry I couldn't get. :P |
| 20:22.40 | albertcoder | Do you mean its current functionalities? |
| 20:23.03 | albertcoder | features / capabilities? of current code /extension? |
| 20:23.48 | brlcad | albertcoder: I mean if you had to draw a picture of what the code looks like, an architecture diagram, what might it look like? |
| 20:24.00 | brlcad | a 2D picture ... not words :) |
| 20:24.22 | brlcad | e.g., is it a mediawiki plugin that takes inputs and writes them to it's own sql db? |
| 20:24.38 | brlcad | it's been months since I looked at the code |
| 20:24.42 | albertcoder | absolutely |
| 20:25.13 | albertcoder | yeah it stores the user inputs and stores them in db |
| 20:25.36 | Ch3ck | brlcad: is there any way of synchronizing svn and git repositories |
| 20:25.37 | brlcad | and the interface? |
| 20:25.45 | brlcad | Ch3ck: yes and no |
| 20:25.55 | Ch3ck | is wondering why BRL-CAD is not yet on github |
| 20:26.08 | brlcad | Ch3ck: all our web projects are on github |
| 20:26.10 | Ch3ck | thinks a github repo is need |
| 20:26.23 | albertcoder | brlcad: I meant it stores the user inputs in the tables created by the extension |
| 20:26.35 | Ch3ck | brlcad: i am talking of the core itself |
| 20:26.35 | brlcad | https://github.com/BRL-CAD |
| 20:28.07 | brlcad | Ch3ck: that is a matter of benefits vs tradeoffs with the current view strongly favoring a centralized model where developer interactions are intentionally coordinated and participation is consistent |
| 20:28.39 | brlcad | moving to github wouldn't change most of our social and coding requirements |
| 20:28.58 | brlcad | the main (only?) technical benefit would be offline commits and more advanced branch merging |
| 20:29.21 | brlcad | but the social / management changes would be quite complicated |
| 20:30.24 | brlcad | moreover, the distributed model is rather antisocial to development communities that aim to coordinate and communicate work (requisite, not optional) |
| 20:31.02 | Ch3ck | i see |
| 20:31.06 | brlcad | opt-in vs opt-out of social requirements (svn is opt-out, git is opt-in) |
| 20:31.10 | Ch3ck | that makes sense |
| 20:31.48 | brlcad | I would like the social discussion features that github provides, being able to comment on changes interactively |
| 20:32.04 | brlcad | but that actually has nothing to do with git or distributed scm itself |
| 20:32.28 | brlcad | we could have the same thing set up with a couple other tools like reviewboard or the atlassian tool |
| 20:32.46 | brlcad | albertcoder: so what are your thoughts on MV and SMV? |
| 20:33.26 | brlcad | maths22: how in the world are you going to approach editing?:) |
| 20:34.29 | MarcTannous | hey Sean :D |
| 20:34.44 | brlcad | maths22: did you see that interface from a couple months ago that I mentioned being a possible round-trip solution to our docs? |
| 20:34.48 | brlcad | MarcTannous: hi! |
| 20:34.55 | brlcad | brb |
| 20:37.50 | albertcoder | Well, so far MW is concerned we had to do a chunk of work manually, I mean categorizing, searching, browsing, sharing (import / export) and almost everything done till now. I feel there some better (as recommended by many MediaWikians) STANDARD way of doing this all using a particular tool (SMW) which is developed to solve such problems. |
| 20:38.49 | albertcoder | and brlcad I feel it^^ can serve far better. |
| 20:39.41 | maths22 | brlcad: no. What was it? |
| 20:49.00 | brlcad | albertcoder: perhaps but if it's done, it's done right? :) what's the benefit now? |
| 20:54.04 | brlcad | maths22: hmmm.... I'll have to check but I believe it was Atlassian Confluence |
| 20:54.41 | brlcad | it supports docbook export quite strongly and there's a docbook import plugin too ... there was just a question of whether we can round-trip using those two |
| 20:55.22 | brlcad | if that'll work, that'd be potentially "done" and a first |
| 20:55.55 | brlcad | the export plugin even supports setting up stylesheets and managing them for different outputs |
| 20:56.20 | brlcad | https://www.k15t.com/software/scroll-docbook-exporter |
| 20:56.51 | albertcoder | brlcad: yeah it is done (except import / export needs to be improved which I am working on). I was just sharing the words of widsom I received from #mediawiki. ;-) |
| 20:56.55 | brlcad | and http://confluence.atlassian.com/ obviously :) |
| 20:57.38 | brlcad | albertcoder: well I trust your judgement to sort out what direction is best with that project, you know it best |
| 20:57.58 | MarcTannous | brlcad |
| 20:58.01 | brlcad | albertcoder: from my quick reading the past hour, it's basically just a set of extensions to mediawiki, so if that helps .. great ;) |
| 20:58.29 | albertcoder | brlcad: :) |
| 20:58.31 | MarcTannous | I know you probably have a lot going on, just want to ask a quick question : any new task batch coming soon or should I just go ahead and claim+learn some Doxygen? |
| 20:59.06 | brlcad | albertcoder: the two critical pieces from my point of view are going to be 1) how easy it is to browse materials, 2) how easy it is to download material data, and 3) how easy it is to download/import/use material data in our tools |
| 21:00.05 | brlcad | and maybe 4) how easy it is to add/extend/update materials but that really is secondary to the first three |
| 21:00.16 | brlcad | MarcTannous: 'yes' :) |
| 21:00.36 | MarcTannous | yes to both questions? :) |
| 21:00.54 | brlcad | intentionally been letting the list get weened down so people take on some of the slightly harder tasks |
| 21:01.05 | brlcad | but yes, many more are coming |
| 21:01.11 | brlcad | and yes, you shouldn't wait for them ;) |
| 21:01.18 | MarcTannous | at the moment it's pretty much beginner tasks only |
| 21:01.43 | MarcTannous | also, shouldn't tasks that are pretty much "unsolvable" be removed (i.e. "Remove a failing unit test") |
| 21:02.48 | MarcTannous | As far as I know all the failing unit tests have been fixed |
| 21:03.21 | albertcoder | brlcad: so far 1) 2) and 4) are pretty easy whereas importing / using material data in our tools is an area to be looked upon. ;) |
| 21:03.24 | brlcad | MarcTannous: probably but those could also be to implement a unit test missing or improve an existing test |
| 21:03.54 | brlcad | there is plenty untested API in libbu |
| 21:04.15 | brlcad | albertcoder: #3 was predominantly completed by mihaineacsu |
| 21:04.25 | brlcad | so we have to make sure the two can talk to each other ;) |
| 21:05.22 | albertcoder | alright for that we two will also have to talk to each other ;) |
| 21:06.44 | albertcoder | It's about 3am here so I'll talk to mihaineacsu about this tommorow. Night! brlcad |
| 21:06.45 | brlcad | would probably help to check out his code and learn how to run our tools that use material data (rtweight and/or gqa) see how they work |
| 21:06.53 | brlcad | albertcoder: see you! |
| 21:08.38 | maths22 | brlcad: while I'm requesting confluence to try it out, should I also request JIRA? |
| 21:08.49 | maths22 | We get it free as an open source org |
| 21:08.50 | MarcTannous | brlcad: What do you think is the best task to claim so that I can get started with Doxygen? |
| 21:28.50 | Ch3ck | goes to sleep *zzzzzzz |
