[08:54:36 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> colinclark: some good and bad news regarding testing
[08:54:42 CDT(-0500)] <colinclark> ok
[08:54:44 CDT(-0500)] <colinclark> bad news first
[08:54:58 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> the batteries for the cameras died just as i started testing them
[08:55:22 CDT(-0500)] <colinclark> sweet
[08:55:24 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> the good news is that james tested it and it was working in --no-cameras mode
[08:55:31 CDT(-0500)] <colinclark> that sounds pretty good
[08:55:47 CDT(-0500)] <colinclark> I'm pretty sure I moved the battery chargers into the camera bag last night while doing some pre-packing
[08:55:52 CDT(-0500)] <colinclark> Did you find them okay?
[08:55:56 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> yep i found them
[08:55:59 CDT(-0500)] <colinclark> Cool

[18:48:18 CDT(-0500)] <yakimax> Hello
[18:50:35 CDT(-0500)] <yakimax> anyone around
[18:52:46 CDT(-0500)] <yakimax> Newbie that would like to get involved
[18:54:06 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> hi yakimax
[18:54:08 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> welcome
[18:54:09 CDT(-0500)] <yakimax> hi
[18:54:14 CDT(-0500)] <yakimax> thanks
[18:54:22 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> pretty quiet these days
[18:54:25 CDT(-0500)] <yakimax> I see
[18:54:32 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> there is a big move coming up next week
[18:54:36 CDT(-0500)] <yakimax> ah
[18:54:42 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> i don't mean in terms of projects and work
[18:54:50 CDT(-0500)] <yakimax> oh?
[18:54:51 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> just a physical move between different universities (smile)
[18:54:54 CDT(-0500)] <yakimax> ah
[18:54:58 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> are you on the mailing lists?
[18:55:04 CDT(-0500)] <yakimax> Yes
[18:55:15 CDT(-0500)] <yakimax> I am on one
[18:55:31 CDT(-0500)] <yakimax> Not sure if I am on the right one
[18:55:45 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> there are a few
[18:55:53 CDT(-0500)] <yakimax> I would like to work on own application for our museum
[18:56:10 CDT(-0500)] <yakimax> I don't want to be dependent on these companies that host iphone apps, etc
[18:56:17 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> ah cool! what museum are you working for/with?
[18:56:23 CDT(-0500)] <yakimax> Yakima Valley Musuem
[18:56:42 CDT(-0500)] <yakimax> I do their website, but also do about 35 others
[18:56:50 CDT(-0500)] <yakimax> I have done cell phone tours
[18:56:58 CDT(-0500)] <yakimax> and have experimented on a lot of platforms
[18:57:19 CDT(-0500)] <yakimax> I have worked a lot with linux and coldfusion
[18:57:27 CDT(-0500)] <yakimax> flash, etc
[18:57:43 CDT(-0500)] <yakimax> I am not sure where to start with this project, but want to learn and help
[18:58:55 CDT(-0500)] <yakimax> I have also done podcasting
[18:59:03 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> sounds like you've got a lot of background, i'm sure there are a few areas you could be involved
[18:59:20 CDT(-0500)] <yakimax> I downloaded Engage, but now I am not sure what to do with it
[18:59:30 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> i mostly look after running the servers and sites
[18:59:31 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> but
[18:59:34 CDT(-0500)] <yakimax> Ah
[18:59:59 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> hang out here, i can make sure that if you're around between about 9:00-17:00 est the right people will be here
[19:00:17 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> do you have engage up and running or just the war file?
[19:00:33 CDT(-0500)] <yakimax> I have not worked with a war file before
[19:00:45 CDT(-0500)] <yakimax> What do I do with it?
[19:01:01 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> think of it as a self-contained zip of an application
[19:01:06 CDT(-0500)] <yakimax> ah
[19:01:14 CDT(-0500)] <yakimax> is it an iphone app?
[19:01:23 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> just plop it into a servlet container like tomcat, jetty etc. and it will unpack itself
[19:01:43 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> the UI for the site is designed for ipone/ipods yes
[19:01:54 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> the backend uses something called couchdb, have you heard of it?
[19:01:57 CDT(-0500)] <yakimax> So one of these sites I have must have a servlet container
[19:02:10 CDT(-0500)] <yakimax> no, don't know couchdb
[19:02:40 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> it is a database that uses json to store and retrieve data and views, pretty cool
[19:02:54 CDT(-0500)] <yakimax> ok.. I guess I need to see where I have a servlet container
[19:02:57 CDT(-0500)] <yakimax> that would be a start
[19:03:05 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> yes, i suggest tomcat to start
[19:03:09 CDT(-0500)] <yakimax> ok
[19:03:11 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> what linux do you prefer?
[19:04:04 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> i tend to get tomcat from tomcat.apache.org instead of package managers on linux
[19:04:15 CDT(-0500)] <yakimax> I started with RedHat
[19:04:28 CDT(-0500)] <yakimax> I think one of the servers I have is running something else now
[19:04:37 CDT(-0500)] <yakimax> There is other guys that do that part
[19:04:49 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> probably easiest to get tomcat from apache then (smile)
[19:04:56 CDT(-0500)] <yakimax> ok
[19:05:02 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> that way you can get it up and running quickly to see how things work
[19:05:14 CDT(-0500)] <yakimax> Ok.. that will get me started. Thank you
[19:05:18 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> happy to help
[19:05:33 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> like i said, tomorrow lots of developers and users will be in here (smile)
[19:06:09 CDT(-0500)] <yakimax> ok. will check
[19:06:11 CDT(-0500)] <yakimax> thanks!
[19:07:03 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> also, have you seen this page? http://wiki.fluidproject.org/display/fluid/Installing+and+Configuring+Fluid+Engage
[19:07:29 CDT(-0500)] <yakimax> no I haven't
[19:07:40 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> it will let you run engage locally via eclipse i think
[19:07:47 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> that part i haven't tried
[19:07:55 CDT(-0500)] <yakimax> ah
[19:07:57 CDT(-0500)] <yakimax> hmm
[19:08:08 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> i'll introduce you tomorrow and someone will be able to give you better help
[19:08:21 CDT(-0500)] <yakimax> ok.. thanks!
[19:08:24 CDT(-0500)] <yakimax> see you tomorrow
[19:08:34 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> ok, glad you're interested
