[06:07:49 CDT(-0500)] <jhernandez> kasparnet: tsk tsk tsk
[06:48:06 CDT(-0500)] <kasparnet> jhernandez: what?
[09:58:06 CDT(-0500)] <colinclark> Justin_o, michelled: Since you both asked me about it, I have responded on list regarding the FSS
[09:58:26 CDT(-0500)] <colinclark> I remain still somewhat concerned about the prospect of deprecating something we have no clear ideas about
[09:58:44 CDT(-0500)] <colinclark> but I guess the lack of ideas shouldn't prevent of us from at least seeing the writing on the wall for FSS
[10:02:43 CDT(-0500)] <michelled> thanks for sending that colinclark
[10:03:13 CDT(-0500)] <colinclark> michelled: So you've reviewed the "three on a match" pull request that appears to be included with this one? https://github.com/fluid-project/infusion/pull/399
[10:03:32 CDT(-0500)] <michelled> colinclark: yes, it's already in the repository
[10:04:32 CDT(-0500)] <colinclark> ok great
[10:45:23 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> colinclark: cindyli and I are trying to send posts to the gpii prefs server. we have a local instance running in the development environment i think.. so no couchdb.
[10:45:33 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> when we try to post it returns a 404
[10:45:42 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> any ideas
[10:45:43 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> ?
[10:50:31 CDT(-0500)] <colinclark> I suspect it is incapable of accepting POSTs in development mode
[10:50:37 CDT(-0500)] <colinclark> It's backed by a static JSON file
[10:51:17 CDT(-0500)] <colinclark> You know you really have been missing working with CouchDB over the past several years anyway, Justin_o
[10:51:18 CDT(-0500)] <colinclark>
[10:51:38 CDT(-0500)] <colinclark> Your laptop has a void in it,
[10:51:41 CDT(-0500)] <colinclark> a lonely gap
[10:51:47 CDT(-0500)] <colinclark> which you can fill by installing CouchDB
[10:51:53 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> colinclark:
[10:52:40 CDT(-0500)] <avtar> Justin_o: couchdb 1.3.1 is installed
[10:53:57 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> avtar: oh really.. so i just need to switch to production environment?
[10:54:15 CDT(-0500)] <avtar> almost
[10:54:46 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> avtar: okay… do you have the steps i need to do to get it working and switched to production?
[10:56:25 CDT(-0500)] <colinclark> Justin_o: It should be documented in the GPII wiki
[10:56:35 CDT(-0500)] <colinclark> there's an environment variable you need to set, if I remember correctly
[10:57:51 CDT(-0500)] <avtar> Justin_o: sorry, too many windows open
[10:58:49 CDT(-0500)] <avtar> would you prefer to set it up manually or wait until later this afternoon once i've had a chance to modify your scripts?
[11:01:28 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> avtar: we can probably wait.. that's fine
[11:01:44 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> colinclark: thanks.. i'll look into it again after the scripts are all setup
[11:03:03 CDT(-0500)] <avtar> kasparnet: does the wiki cover steps required to prime a couchdb database if someone wants to switch to production from development?
[11:04:44 CDT(-0500)] <colinclark> I suspect we won't hear a lot from kasparnet and company today
[11:04:57 CDT(-0500)] <colinclark> I think they're teaching an implementer's workshop in Villamoura today
[11:10:48 CDT(-0500)] <avtar> ah right
[14:01:49 CDT(-0500)] <colinclark> michelled: Can you review https://github.com/fluid-project/infusion/pull/403?
[14:02:31 CDT(-0500)] <colinclark> I'll do https://github.com/fluid-project/infusion/pull/404 when it's done, since I'd like to verify it with Flocking (in which I've had to do some monkey patching due to this issue) before merging.
[14:07:42 CDT(-0500)] <michelled> colinclark: sure
[14:07:57 CDT(-0500)] <colinclark> thx
[15:10:22 CDT(-0500)] <michelled> colinclark, Bosmon: it looks like something that got merged in today has broken the styling of the themes in the Fat Panel UIO in the grades demo. I haven't looked into it yet - does it ring a bell?
[15:10:38 CDT(-0500)] <michelled> instead of seeing the 'a' with the theme colours, I see the theme name
[15:10:50 CDT(-0500)] <colinclark> nope
[15:11:10 CDT(-0500)] <colinclark> I can't say that I tested the UIO demos particularly rigorously, though
[15:11:39 CDT(-0500)] <michelled> same issue with the schema demo
[15:12:08 CDT(-0500)] <michelled> colinclark: are you seeing the correct styling?
[15:13:55 CDT(-0500)] <Bosmon> Hi michelled - I had assumed that the style breakage was just my usual failure to run the builder correctly to generate the CSS files
[15:14:20 CDT(-0500)] <Bosmon> If there is a real breakage, my first guess it is caused by failing to catch one of the cases where an invoker now needs to be marked as "dynamic" in the UIO hierarchy
[15:15:22 CDT(-0500)] <michelled> Bosmon: it very well could be the builder. I somehow constantly forget to run that
[15:15:25 CDT(-0500)] <michelled> let me try again
[15:19:52 CDT(-0500)] <michelled> Bosmon: nope, even with the rebuilt CSS files the styling issue remains
[15:20:54 CDT(-0500)] <Bosmon> cindyli - do you happen to remember where you put your sketch for the "visibility model" implementation?
[15:21:10 CDT(-0500)] <Bosmon> The thing which maps a set of flags in the model to the visibility of a set of DOM binder selectors?
[15:22:02 CDT(-0500)] <cindyli> trying to rmb. did i ever do that …
[15:24:00 CDT(-0500)] <Bosmon> cindyli - you did
[15:24:42 CDT(-0500)] <colinclark> was it part of the model relay work in the Video Player?
[15:24:53 CDT(-0500)] <cindyli> sorry, don't recall, Bosmon. more context?
[15:25:37 CDT(-0500)] <cindyli> no, the model relay work in vp was from Bosmon
[15:25:48 CDT(-0500)] <Bosmon> cindyli - not model relay
[15:25:52 CDT(-0500)] <colinclark> I think it had to do with binding a chunk of model to the DOM in terms of whether an element should be visible or invisible, enabled or disabled
[15:25:53 CDT(-0500)] <colinclark> something likethat?
[15:25:53 CDT(-0500)] <Bosmon> But "visibility model"
[15:26:14 CDT(-0500)] <cindyli> i did the model relay for uio
[15:27:06 CDT(-0500)] <Bosmon> cindyli - not model relay!
[15:27:34 CDT(-0500)] <cindyli> what's the "visibility model" for
[15:28:07 CDT(-0500)] <Bosmon> cindyli - described in http://issues.fluidproject.org/browse/FLUID-4928
[15:28:18 CDT(-0500)] <Bosmon> You had made a sketch implementation of this, but I can't remember what component it was for
[15:28:27 CDT(-0500)] <Bosmon> Is it possible it is just sitting in a branch somewhere and never reached master?
[15:29:49 CDT(-0500)] <Bosmon> The pasted fragment of impl I have there suggests this MUST have been part of a video player impl
[15:32:19 CDT(-0500)] <cindyli> ah, yes, i wrote this "fluid.videoPlayer.showHide"
[15:32:39 CDT(-0500)] <cindyli> that's about it: https://github.com/fluid-project/videoPlayer/blob/master/js/VideoPlayer_showHide.js
[15:35:10 CDT(-0500)] <Bosmon> Thanks cindyli - that's it!
[15:35:56 CDT(-0500)] <cindyli> thanks to your neatly composed jira, Bosmon, the component was mentioned in there
[15:36:32 CDT(-0500)] <Bosmon> Yes, in the end I found I had such an ancient version of the videoPlayer checked out that I couldn't find that code ....
[15:36:49 CDT(-0500)] <cindyli> lol
[18:29:18 CDT(-0500)] <kasparnet> evening dr. bosmon Bosmon8
[18:29:40 CDT(-0500)] <Bosmon> Damn, &c, &c
[18:29:48 CDT(-0500)] <kasparnet>
[18:30:22 CDT(-0500)] <kasparnet> Bosmon: I'm working on the model transformation documentation and got a question
[18:30:50 CDT(-0500)] <Bosmon> Hi
[18:31:24 CDT(-0500)] <kasparnet> is there a reason that fluid.transforms.firstValue is not a standardTransformationFunction?
[18:31:35 CDT(-0500)] <Bosmon> I believe there is, yes
[18:32:25 CDT(-0500)] <Bosmon> It accepts multiple values
[18:33:03 CDT(-0500)] <kasparnet> doesn't it just accept one value, but one that has to be an array?
[18:33:09 CDT(-0500)] <Bosmon> Well
[18:33:17 CDT(-0500)] <Bosmon> I guess we didn't have this theory worked out at the tie
[18:33:18 CDT(-0500)] <Bosmon> time
[18:33:29 CDT(-0500)] <Bosmon> Array-valued transformers didn't exist
[18:33:41 CDT(-0500)] <Bosmon> Feel free to rationalise it if you can make it work
[18:34:20 CDT(-0500)] <kasparnet> ok - wont do that now, but I'll create a JIRA for it and assign to me to fix later
[18:34:37 CDT(-0500)] <Bosmon> Cool
[18:34:40 CDT(-0500)] <Bosmon> How has the day gone?
[18:34:43 CDT(-0500)] <Bosmon> Any HACCKING?
[18:34:53 CDT(-0500)] <kasparnet> the day has been really good
[18:35:02 CDT(-0500)] <kasparnet> all the presentations went well, etc
[18:35:17 CDT(-0500)] <kasparnet> and we had people over for bbq this evening which was really nice
[18:35:31 CDT(-0500)] <kasparnet> ... now we're drunk and doing the last bit of prepping for tomorrow
[18:35:48 CDT(-0500)] <Bosmon> cool
[18:36:28 CDT(-0500)] <kasparnet> (actually, I'm just staying awake to make sure yzen doesn't misbehave on a classic drunken russian rampage)
[18:37:31 CDT(-0500)] <Bosmon> Get him to teach you that excellent card game, *DURRAKK*
[18:43:50 CDT(-0500)] <kasparnet> http://issues.fluidproject.org/browse/FLUID-5136

[18:55:34 CDT(-0500)] <kasparnet> jhernandez: yay!!
