[08:24:54 CDT(-0500)] <zafar> Update: I am presently working on the 3D components, and I have good news as far as stereo reconstruction is concerned as we have some good results, will be working on training the present stereo implementation on book images this week
[08:28:54 CDT(-0500)] <jessm> zafar: thanks for the update
[08:29:17 CDT(-0500)] <jessm> i'm going to send out a Decapod monday mtg. email to coordinate what we'll be doing these next weeks as the grant moved to OCAD U
[08:29:54 CDT(-0500)] <zafar> that will be great!
[08:50:20 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> hey jhung are you doing something w/ layout... (left sidebar)
[08:51:40 CDT(-0500)] <jhung> nope.
[08:52:26 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> heidi_: hi, was testing to make sure views works
[08:52:37 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> i guess since you're seeing that block, it does :)
[08:53:37 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> ah okay
[08:53:40 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> just wondering
[08:53:40 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> :)
[08:54:08 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> jamon are you still testing it
[08:55:15 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> heidi_: nope, was just to make sure views wasn't corrupting the database, all good, i'll turn it off
[08:56:11 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> cool thanks. jhung are you finishing news views ?  (front page and news page)
[08:57:26 CDT(-0500)] <jhung> heidi_: we're going to have to redo that today. I'll do that and you can carry on w styling?
[08:57:33 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> sounds good
[08:57:42 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> let me know when you want to try to template it
[08:58:00 CDT(-0500)] <jhung> Okay. I may leave that to you. I'll just get it in there for now.
[08:58:02 CDT(-0500)] <jhung> :)
[08:59:29 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> jhung: i had to uninstall views, panels, and chaos tools to get vies 6.2.x installed, but it seems to be working, hope i didn't lose any of your configurations for those modules
[08:59:40 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> s/vies/views
[09:04:38 CDT(-0500)] * Topic is 'This channel is logged – for details see: http://wiki.fluidproject.org/display/fluid/IRC+Channel'; set by jessm on 07:30:00 CST(-0600)
[09:05:18 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> testing the log bot
[09:06:37 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> EricDalquist: hello, quick question about the log bot, does it support other wiki's or just confluence?
[09:06:54 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> just confluence but support for logging anywhere shouldn't be too hard
[09:06:59 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> let me find a few links
[09:07:10 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> EricDalquist: thanks[09:09:47 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> Justin_o: if you take a look in: https://source.jasig.org/sandbox/ConfluenceIrcLogger/trunk/src/main/java/org/jasig/irclog/
[09:09:48 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> ConfluenceEventWriter.java is the implementation of the EventWriter interface that takes care of writing to confluence
[09:10:10 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> It uses XmlRpcConfluenceServer which handles the XMLRPC specifics for confluence
[09:10:29 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> All it really takes is another implementation of EventWriter to log a channel to a different location
[09:12:53 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> EricDalquist: thanks for the info, that's great to know... so it seems like it will be straightforward to keep our logging intact if we ever move off of confluence
[09:13:00 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> yup
[09:13:29 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> there is a lot of control over the formatting of the messages too
[09:14:02 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> you mean to handle the various types of wiki markup?
[09:14:04 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> There is a provided formatter that lets you use Spring EL to define the formatting strings for the events
[09:14:06 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> https://source.jasig.org/sandbox/ConfluenceIrcLogger/trunk/src/main/resources/confluenceEventFormating.properties
[09:14:08 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> yeah
[09:15:52 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> so actually if Fluid wanted different formatting for your current wiki logs you'd just have to provide a file like that
[09:17:30 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> i see, just a new properties file with new templates
[09:18:19 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> yup
[09:19:04 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> The variables being referenced are java bean properties from the various IRC events: https://source.jasig.org/sandbox/ConfluenceIrcLogger/trunk/src/main/java/org/jasig/irclog/events/
[09:19:25 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> jamon: did you talk to colin at all last week about changing our wiki and issue trackers
[09:19:52 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> jamon: sorry will have to come back to this, forgot i have a meeting i have to run to.
[09:20:11 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> k Justin_o
[09:20:56 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> EricDalquist: thanks... I think we should be set if we need to write a new one...
[09:21:07 CDT(-0500)] <EricDalquist> great, just let me know
[09:42:12 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> jhung i'm having trouble with menu_get_active_title()
[09:42:31 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> i want to find out the current page so i can style the menu but this prints out "content" on the home page. know why?
[09:42:58 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> about us & contact us on the other pages
[09:43:01 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> just wondering where this is set
[09:45:15 CDT(-0500)] <jhung> http://dev.floeproject.org/node/1/edit try giving the menu link a title?
[09:56:41 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> jhung: aha! thanks
[09:56:58 CDT(-0500)] <jhung> heidi_: It was a guess. Glad it worked.
[09:57:01 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> hmm, still "Content"
[09:57:06 CDT(-0500)] <jhung> Oh
[09:57:07 CDT(-0500)] <jhung> lol
[09:57:17 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> it's weird
[09:57:27 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> for the other pages it's "Title" that shows up
[09:58:03 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> maybe the title "Paving the way toward inclusive open education resources" is too long
[09:58:24 CDT(-0500)] <jhung> Maybe the front page is special because it's displaying not just a single piece of content.
[09:59:02 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> jhung, heidi_, set the front page to a specific node using http://dev.floeproject.org/admin/settings/site-information
[09:59:42 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> ok ill do that
[09:59:45 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> there are two homes now ha
[09:59:59 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> how did that happen
[10:00:31 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> ah node 1 has a parent item of primary links set
[10:00:33 CDT(-0500)] <jhung> Remove the menu item title. That may help.
[10:00:51 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> i'm so confused
[10:01:02 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> did i make that second home page somehow or are you guys doin stuff?
[10:01:33 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> heidi_: it's drupal rendering that link - any page with a primary link set as its menu parent will be rendered in the list of links
[10:01:51 CDT(-0500)] <jhung> Heidi_: go back here and remove the title for the link: http://dev.floeproject.org/node/1/edit
[10:02:04 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> i did
[10:02:06 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> it's still there
[10:02:14 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> wait
[10:02:21 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> now it's still there.... akkk drupal
[10:02:46 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> okay i "deleted menu item"
[10:03:42 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> jamon so it's working now because i set that node to front-page default ?
[10:03:50 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> "Content" was default front page
[10:04:43 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> heidi_: setting the front page to one item is pretty standard, yep
[10:05:05 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> k
[10:48:23 CDT(-0500)] <jessm> jhung: missed that about your schedule – what was it again?
[10:49:02 CDT(-0500)] <jhung> wed - fri I'm on vacation. You'll be in town, right?
[10:49:19 CDT(-0500)] <jessm> yes, hrm, good timing?
[10:50:33 CDT(-0500)] <jhung> apparently.
[10:50:41 CDT(-0500)] <jhung> When do you fly out?
[11:46:41 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> jamon: hello
[11:47:54 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> hi Justin_o
[11:48:13 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> Justin_o: are you here today?
[11:48:38 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> jamon: yep i'm in the office, just wondering if you have time today to talk about the wiki and issue tracker stuff...
[11:48:45 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> sure, want to now?
[11:48:59 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> sure...
[11:49:04 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> k, i'll come over
[11:49:52 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> okay... thanksj
[12:38:14 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> jessm: i'm getting ready to e-mail the list about the maintenance releases... i'm thinking we can hopefully get Infusion 1.1.3 out on Friday or next Monday which will Aug 27 or 30 and then release 1.2.1 on Sept 3 or 7.
[12:39:01 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> those dates will of course be dependent on how much time everyone has and not having any unexpected problems
[12:41:55 CDT(-0500)] <jessm> Justin_o: awesome – sounds great: firm, but flexible
[12:43:40 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> thanks i'll send that out soon
