[03:23:11 CST(-0600)] <thealphanerd> Bosmon: eyo you around?

[08:03:14 CST(-0600)] <Justin_o> jhung: good morning

[08:08:29 CST(-0600)] <jhung> hey justin_o

[08:08:51 CST(-0600)] <Justin_o> jhung: i commented on your comments for the DECA-249

[08:09:15 CST(-0600)] <jhung> yes I saw justin_o. Is there any way we can put both error messages together?

[08:09:27 CST(-0600)] <Justin_o> jhung: i'm not sure they should go together

[08:09:37 CST(-0600)] <Justin_o> jhung: meaning that they are for different things

[08:09:42 CST(-0600)] <jhung> True.

[08:09:51 CST(-0600)] <Justin_o> unless you mean put both errors messages in the same spot

[08:10:06 CST(-0600)] <jhung> But the invalid file case only happens when the user selects Export. So to the user it appears to be the same action.

[08:10:08 CST(-0600)] <Justin_o> rather than have a single error message for both

[08:10:10 CST(-0600)] <jhung> Yes

[08:10:17 CST(-0600)] <jhung> Same spot. Physically on screen.

[08:10:29 CST(-0600)] <Justin_o> hmm

[08:10:33 CST(-0600)] <jhung> Same spot. Two error messages.

[08:11:02 CST(-0600)] <Justin_o> jhung: hmm.. maybe.. the difficulty is that the same event from the uploader reports both types of errors

[08:11:49 CST(-0600)] <Justin_o> i guess we could add something ahead to funnel these things into the appropriate places…

[08:12:18 CST(-0600)] <jhung> chat on skype?

[08:12:23 CST(-0600)] <Justin_o> jhung: sure

[08:20:37 CST(-0600)] <heidiv> michelled anastasia and i were agreeing that the media panel on UIO would make sense to have always present on a site, even if you're on a page without media. you think so too?

[08:25:05 CST(-0600)] <michelled> yep

[08:25:34 CST(-0600)] <michelled> heidiv: that's what we have now, right?

[08:26:03 CST(-0600)] <heidiv> michelled where?

[08:27:09 CST(-0600)] <michelled> heidiv: well, we haven't integrated UIO with the media panel anywhere yet, but it's not like we have any code that would strip out that panel

[08:27:35 CST(-0600)] <heidiv> michelled yeah. need to figure out how to call the panel sans VP tho, i think

[08:30:10 CST(-0600)] <heidiv> the panel seems to be working with the demos

[09:33:54 CST(-0600)] <jhung> cindyli, justin_o, yura: are there any outstanding styling tasks you'd like me to take a look at? Otherwise I'm going to start on Help documentation and come back to Styling fixes during testing phase.

[09:34:43 CST(-0600)] <cindyli> i don't have any, jhung

[09:34:58 CST(-0600)] <yura1> looks good so far , jhung

[09:35:02 CST(-0600)] <Justin_o> jhung: nothing from me

[09:35:42 CST(-0600)] <jhung> thanks. Off to documentation I go!

[09:41:51 CST(-0600)] <cindyli> Justin_o, yura, jhung, just pushed the implementation of the calibration server to my bitbucket branch - https://bitbucket.org/cindyli/decapod-0.7-server-iteration4. You can merge if you are interested. I'm moving on to fix a few things in the dewarp server.

[09:42:58 CST(-0600)] <Justin_o> cindyli: thanks

[09:43:26 CST(-0600)] <yura> cindyli: thanks, i have a calibration question, do you expect 2 different requests for upload of the archive and calibration ?

[09:44:49 CST(-0600)] <cindyli> yura: do you mean for dewarping? no, there should be one archive that contains the captures and a subdirectory named "calibration" with all the calibration data

[09:45:42 CST(-0600)] <yura> cindyli: sorry, what i meant was on calibration page there are 2 user activities

[09:45:48 CST(-0600)] <yura> uploading the archive

[09:45:53 CST(-0600)] <yura> and actual calibration

[09:46:05 CST(-0600)] <yura> are they done as 2 separate requests or just one ?

[09:46:23 CST(-0600)] <cindyli> yura: oh, yes, those are separate requests.

[09:48:07 CST(-0600)] <yura> thank you

[09:48:11 CST(-0600)] <cindyli> np

[11:05:39 CST(-0600)] <kasper> Bosmon: six boing!

[11:18:18 CST(-0600)] <Justin_o> michelled, yura: just to give you a heads up.. I've moved up the jqUnit refactoring to start next week

[11:18:35 CST(-0600)] <yura> ok

[12:45:47 CST(-0600)] <jhung> I have a question for the community...

[12:46:50 CST(-0600)] <jhung> Is there a general IDRC email address we can use for project feedback? I am writing Decapod documentation and would like to insert an email feedback link. Using my personal email address doesn't seem appropriate for this case?

[12:50:06 CST(-0600)] <thealphanerd> colinclark: hey you around?

[12:51:54 CST(-0600)] <colinclark> yup

[12:52:14 CST(-0600)] <colinclark> jhung: What kind of feedback are you thinking of soliciting?

[12:52:54 CST(-0600)] <colinclark> thealphanerd: yup, i'm here

[13:03:23 CST(-0600)] <jhung> colinclark: feedback regarding supported cameras (i.e. if they find one that works).

[13:04:40 CST(-0600)] <colinclark> I'd suggest using the Decapod mailing list, maybe?

[13:05:41 CST(-0600)] <jhung> I was thinking that too, but was looking for a low-barrier method.

[13:06:41 CST(-0600)] <thealphanerd> colinclark: so how did you manage to get Flocking working on android?

[13:06:49 CST(-0600)] <jhung> I guess I'll put the mailing list for now and see if there's an easy way to post to the Decapod group without having to register.

[13:17:06 CST(-0600)] <colinclark> I think it makes sense to, jhung, to encourage them to give feedback to a broader community

[13:17:32 CST(-0600)] <colinclark> because if you have just a generic contact email, you know it'll either be you checking it… or someone forwarded all the emails to it

[13:17:36 CST(-0600)] <colinclark> to you

[13:17:55 CST(-0600)] <colinclark> So better to distribute the responsibility and try to foster a community of Decapoders

[13:19:57 CST(-0600)] <colinclark> thealphanerd: Do you mean, "what code changes did I have to make?" Or "How do I actually get it working on Android?"

[13:20:13 CST(-0600)] <thealphanerd> the latter

[13:20:24 CST(-0600)] <thealphanerd> as I was under the impression that audio api was disabled by default

[13:20:53 CST(-0600)] <colinclark> It's enabled by default on Firefox

[13:20:56 CST(-0600)] <colinclark> at least on the Beta

[13:21:10 CST(-0600)] <colinclark> I'm not sure if the latest release version of Firefox for Android has it enabled or not

[13:21:34 CST(-0600)] <colinclark> you'll need to use the ff-output branch at the moment

[13:22:16 CST(-0600)] <colinclark> which is pretty close to stable, but I'm still a tiny bit nervous about introducing it more broadly until I've tested more

[13:23:14 CST(-0600)] <thealphanerd> LOL

[13:23:15 CST(-0600)] <thealphanerd> fair enough

[13:34:33 CST(-0600)] <Justin_o> fluid-everyone: we are starting the community meeting.. would anyone like to join remotely. clown will be leading the discussion today

[13:35:12 CST(-0600)] <clown> fluid- everyone: url for my slides: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1-z_xNkqVA-pyhtGnHa9Wzx4LzBdQhjLPVk00SM9ZYLo/present#slide=id.p
