[14:34:31 EDT(-0400)] <jessm> colinclark: i think it's https'd
[14:34:38 EDT(-0400)] <tmbdev> We use a mercurial repository that we access with ssh (that's the standard way).
[14:34:46 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> jessm: As any good source code repository should be
[14:35:07 EDT(-0400)] <jessm> that's what i meant – ssh
[14:35:17 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> But, tmbdev, I guess what you're saying is that you have a private Mercurial repository?
[14:35:19 EDT(-0400)] <tmbdev> I tried creating a copy so that it's accessible via http://, but the permissions on the lab's web server are not set right.
[14:35:46 EDT(-0400)] <tmbdev> We will be pushing this to the Google Code repository, but Michael wasn't quite ready to do that last week yet, so I didn't want to do it on my own.
[14:35:47 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> tmbdev: Typically, an open source project's code repository should use HTTPS, but should only require authentication for writes, not for reads.
[14:35:51 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> Can we set that up?
[14:36:07 EDT(-0400)] <tmbdev> The Google Code repository already exists.
[14:36:33 EDT(-0400)] <tmbdev> It just doesn't have the tool pushed to it yet.
[14:36:58 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> It would be hugely helpful if we can start pushing that code to the public repository more often.
[14:37:22 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> Integration is always the hardest part of any software release, and we need to get started on it.
[14:37:42 EDT(-0400)] <tmbdev> as I was saying, it's not been pushed at all yet because Michael wasn't ready yet (among other things, he wanted to write up a paper on the clustering)
[14:38:09 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> I'm wondering if, perhaps, a gradual step in the process is to have Michael push his changes on a periodic basis into the public repo.
[14:38:24 EDT(-0400)] <tmbdev> once it is in the public repository, we'll just be developing against that
[14:38:39 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> That will be great
[14:38:50 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> So michelled, I gather this code is a blocker for you?
[14:38:53 EDT(-0400)] <tmbdev> so, this isn't a reflection of how we usually work, it's a reflection of the fact that the initial version hasn't been pushed yet
[14:39:07 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> tmbdev: Great!
[14:39:28 EDT(-0400)] <tmbdev> another reason for not pushing it so far is that the command line name and options are going to change anyway
[14:39:35 EDT(-0400)] <tmbdev> one sec, let me check something
[14:39:57 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> We can handle a little bit of API change--while it's not ideal, it's still probably better than not being able to integrate at all.

[14:41:06 EDT(-0400)] <tmbdev> again, do you need to do it today or is it OK if you have it Monday morning?
[14:41:31 EDT(-0400)] <tmbdev> We're going to have a Skype conference in IUPR Monday morning.
[14:42:03 EDT(-0400)] <michelled> it's ok if I get it on Monda
[14:42:25 EDT(-0400)] <tmbdev> great, I'll make sure we address this Monday morning then
[14:42:30 EDT(-0400)] <michelled> thanks
[14:50:21 EDT(-0400)] <jhung> btw tmbdev, I finally got the cameras working. Took a lot of trial and error to find the right combination of versions.
[14:51:01 EDT(-0400)] <jhung> curious to see if the same libraries are okay when we use a different machine, or if we need different versions again.
[14:51:50 EDT(-0400)] <tmbdev> I doubt the libraries are PC hardware-specific. The USB-related problems have to do with how the USB controller talks to the camera.
[14:52:07 EDT(-0400)] <tmbdev> So, it's a PC-vs-camera issue, not driver-vs-PC or library-vs-PC issue
[14:52:44 EDT(-0400)] <jhung> Good to know.
