[09:38:08 EST(-0500)] <boyan> jhung, did you get a chance to take a look at the e-mail I sent you yesterday
[09:38:43 EST(-0500)] <jhung> Yes. I was in the process of replying.
[09:39:02 EST(-0500)] <jhung> I think it's fine that we detect only once for this release.
[09:40:05 EST(-0500)] <jhung> We'll add a method for redetection in a future release in case the cables move.
[09:41:10 EST(-0500)] <jhung> I'll respond to the a11y questions in email. They are good issues to figure out.
[09:44:22 EST(-0500)] <jhung> Boyan, if we do not do detection, then the lens shouldn't need to contract between each shot, correct?
[09:45:49 EST(-0500)] <boyan> jhung, no, it seems Canon cameras (or at least most of them (or at least the model I have)) always contract their lens after taking a shot (when USB cable is connected)
[09:46:43 EST(-0500)] <jhung> Wow, that's not good. Bad for the battery, len motor... Also a poor user experience too.
[09:47:17 EST(-0500)] <jhung> I guess we don't have any choice at this point. We'll try to see if we can improve that in future releases.

[09:50:05 EST(-0500)] <boyan> jhung, I think this depends only on camera support within gPhoto and the camera model, I don't think there's actually anything we can do about it
[09:50:13 EST(-0500)] <boyan> I might be wrong
[09:50:53 EST(-0500)] <jhung> Ok. Either way it's not something we can fix for 0.3. We should document it in Jira and investigate after release.
[09:51:46 EST(-0500)] <boyan> yes, that's right
[10:12:05 EST(-0500)] <jhung> boyan, email replied.
[10:14:50 EST(-0500)] <jhung> boyan, are there instructions anywhere to get cherrypy installed and running? I would like to start testing on a local machine.
[10:15:55 EST(-0500)] <boyan> jhung, thanks for the reply
[10:16:26 EST(-0500)] <boyan> for cherrypy, you'll need some python packages
[10:16:52 EST(-0500)] <boyan> they are on the http://wiki.fluidproject.org/display/fluid/Decapod+Ubuntu+Packages page mixed up with the other
[10:17:19 EST(-0500)] <boyan> I'll look at my notes to try to write you only those needed for cherrypy
[10:17:31 EST(-0500)] <jhung> ok thanks!
[10:20:41 EST(-0500)] <boyan> jhung, so you'll need python-cherrypy3, python-numpy, matplotlib, python-imaging (these are the names of the packages in Ubuntu I believe
[10:21:01 EST(-0500)] <jhung> Thanks. I'll give that a try.
[10:21:29 EST(-0500)] <boyan> I think these are enough, if you get an error message upon starting the server, send it to me and I'll figure out what package is missing
[10:21:40 EST(-0500)] <jhung> Will do.
[10:22:03 EST(-0500)] <boyan> in order to run the server, open a terminal, go to the /decapod/components/server folder and type "python dserver.py"
[10:22:18 EST(-0500)] <boyan> that starts the engine and you'll be able to browse to localhost:8080
[10:22:46 EST(-0500)] <jhung> Great! I'll make notes of my progress and put it on the wiki.
[10:23:16 EST(-0500)] <boyan> ok, if you have some questions or problems ping me here or e-mail me
[10:23:23 EST(-0500)] <jhung> ok. thanks
[10:26:06 EST(-0500)] <boyan> jhung, did we decide on what to display to the user while post-processing
[10:26:33 EST(-0500)] <boyan> I remember discussing it but cannot find a note or wireframe on what happens between capture and stitching
[10:27:10 EST(-0500)] <boyan> what should be displayed as a thumbnail before we have the stitched image
[10:28:14 EST(-0500)] <jhung> boyan, yes. That is what we discussed. Let me check the wiki for a wireframe.
[10:30:07 EST(-0500)] <jhung> boyan, there are old wireframes with similar, but I will create one specifically for 0.3 now. Should be ready in a few minutes.
[10:31:35 EST(-0500)] <boyan> jhung, ok, thanks

[10:36:22 EST(-0500)] <yura> hey michelled there's a patch for http://issues.fluidproject.org/browse/ENGAGE-441

[10:37:30 EST(-0500)] <michelled> thx yura - I'll take a look

[11:01:13 EST(-0500)] <jhung> boyan, I'
[11:02:50 EST(-0500)] <jhung> m still working on the wireframe. What we can do in the meantime is set aside 3 classes which are to be used: flc-image-processed, flc-image-processing, flc-image-unprocessed.
[11:03:15 EST(-0500)] <jhung> This way we can rearrange the layout as needed using css.
[11:04:36 EST(-0500)] <boyan> ok, jhung, I think I got the idea, probably these need to be fl-* classes since they'll all be applied to the element with the flc-capture-image-thumb selector
