Lava_Croft | nokia announced yet another completely unimpressive mobile device! | 00:00 |
---|---|---|
Lava_Croft | and its still the same phone as 2 years ago, it seems! \o/ | 00:00 |
DocScrutinizer05 | if they only would announce same N900-alike as 5 years ago | 00:02 |
Lava_Croft | those times are past us | 00:03 |
Lava_Croft | nokia is not in the game anymore to set the bar:) | 00:03 |
Lava_Croft | they now follow, several miles behind | 00:03 |
Lava_Croft | what i wonder is what monkey at Nokia thought that putting this PureView monster in a Lumia will make people want a Lumia | 00:03 |
Lava_Croft | as if the camera was the reason holding people back from buying a Lumia | 00:04 |

* DocScrutinizer05 stares at his new disk activity indicator and thinks "how awesome!" | 00:06 | |
Lava_Croft | yeah i read it | 00:06 |
Lava_Croft | but i decided its not worth it if it doesnt stick! | 00:06 |
Win7Mac | please port to N9 :P | 00:07 |
DocScrutinizer05 | while sleep 10; do echo mmc1 >/sys/class/leds/lp5523\:g/trigger; echo mmc0 >/sys/class/leds/lp5523\:b/trigger; done | 00:07 |
*** amin__007110 has joined #maemo | 00:07 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | good enough for me, for now | 00:07 |
*** rd has joined #maemo | 00:08 | |
*** rd is now known as Guest87663 | 00:08 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | btw don't get fooled, here mmc0 and mmc1 are genuine unrenamed meaning | 00:09 |
DocScrutinizer05 | and I think r for red is nicer than b for blue | 00:10 |
*** amin_007110 has quit IRC | 00:10 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | i.e. uSD is red, not blue when you use /sys/class/leds/lp5523\:r instead *b | 00:10 |
DocScrutinizer05 | I just wonder wtf there's no mtd0 in list of triggers | 00:12 |
DocScrutinizer05 | (cat /sys/class/leds/lp5523\:g/trigger) | 00:13 |
DocScrutinizer05 | none timer heartbeat mmc0 [mmc1] | 00:13 |
DocScrutinizer05 | heartbeat is pretty boring | 00:15 |
DocScrutinizer05 | timer is kinda obscure | 00:15 |
DocScrutinizer05 | I once checked sourcecode how to use it, but in the end it's also boring | 00:16 |
Lava_Croft | ill just blindly copy and paste that you said over ssh | 00:16 |
Lava_Croft | n900 is not within reach | 00:16 |
Lava_Croft | (of course i wont, but its always fun to say such things) | 00:17 |
DocScrutinizer05 | well, when you want to run that via ssh (wlan) then you probably should use nohup (or screen) | 00:17 |
*** LauRoman has quit IRC | 00:18 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | and as mentioned, it works much better when you disable "device on" LED pattern in settings/LED-patterns | 00:18 |
Lava_Croft | i have all leds except charging disabled | 00:18 |
DocScrutinizer05 | :nod: | 00:18 |
Lava_Croft | they serve me no purpose for notifications | 00:18 |
DocScrutinizer05 | then you indeed can simply c&p it to a ssh session | 00:18 |
*** timeless has joined #maemo | 00:19 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | nohup while sleep 10; do echo mmc1 >/sys/class/leds/lp5523\:g/trigger; echo mmc0 >/sys/class/leds/lp5523\:r/trigger; done | 00:19 |
*** amin_007110 has joined #maemo | 00:19 | |
Lava_Croft | ok | 00:22 |
Lava_Croft | im not fast with saying such things | 00:22 |
Lava_Croft | but THIS particular blinking light is cool | 00:22 |
Lava_Croft | thanks | 00:22 |
Lava_Croft | finally it seems i havew a valid use for the led | 00:22 |
Lava_Croft | at least for as long as the novelty factor works | 00:23 |

Lava_Croft | dont think your led works that well! | 00:33 |
Lava_Croft | copying a file did not make it light up | 00:33 |
Lava_Croft | well, your 'code' or my insertion | 00:34 |
DocScrutinizer05 | I think each keypress causes a mce event that might reset it. To be investigated further | 00:35 |
Lava_Croft | wauw | 00:36 |
Lava_Croft | and here i thought that idea was crazy, haha | 00:36 |
Lava_Croft | since it does seem to cancel it upon any keypress | 00:36 |
Lava_Croft | or just about anything else | 00:36 |
Lava_Croft | still, a valid path to explore | 00:36 |
DocScrutinizer05 | you could disable mce led plugin all together, even when this probably also has impact on kbd backlight | 00:36 |
Lava_Croft | yeah, thats not really needed for now | 00:37 |
Lava_Croft | im sure there can/will be a workaround | 00:37 |

Lava_Croft | while ELop shows off quite impressive camera tech and im just yawning | 00:49 |
Lava_Croft | most of the Nokia Pro Cam stuff is already pretty normal for n900 users | 00:50 |

*** Cor-Ai_ is now known as Cor-Ai | 01:15 | |
Lava_Croft | no clue, but its normal to bring standard features as if they are special | 01:15 |
*** valerius has quit IRC | 01:16 | |
ecc3g | It does make a big difference in low light photography... but it eats battery... | 01:17 |
Lava_Croft | well, friend of mine has that other lumia with the neat low-light ability | 01:18 |
Lava_Croft | it's quite impressive | 01:18 |
Lava_Croft | too bad thats about the only thing thats neat about t | 01:18 |
Lava_Croft | it* | 01:18 |
ecc3g | probably. | 01:18 |
Lava_Croft | almost bought a 808 the other day, but decided 527euros is still a bit much :P | 01:19 |
*** qwazix has quit IRC | 01:19 | |
ecc3g | just that you can't use your phone as a flashlight anymore :o | 01:19 |
ecc3g | hehe | 01:19 |
Lava_Croft | :) | 01:20 |
ecc3g | I wonder if it's possible to upgrade the N900's LEDs with a higher efficiency/higher wattage LED. | 01:20 |
Lava_Croft | hm, probably not, since that would draw more power | 01:20 |
*** jrocha has quit IRC | 01:20 | |
Lava_Croft | im fairly sure that stuff is fairly tight | 01:21 |
Lava_Croft | and i used the fairly twice in a single sentence, so \o/ | 01:21 |
ecc3g | some of those 1W LEDs are really bright, I should check the luminosity of the built-in LEDs... | 01:22 |
ecc3g | then again, they are fairly bright when used as a flashlight as they are. | 01:22 |
Lava_Croft | yeah, and getting the flashlight on is actually easier on n900 than on n9 | 01:22 |
Lava_Croft | at least the way i do it | 01:22 |
Lava_Croft | so i end up using the n900 as flashlight all the time:P | 01:23 |
ecc3g | actually a 1W LED should still last a while on a bl5j | 01:23 |
ecc3g | then again the LEDs may already be close to 1W as they are... | 01:24 |
*** qwazix has joined #maemo | 01:25 | |
Lava_Croft | http://wiki.maemo.org/N900_Hardware_Flash_Torch | 01:25 |
ecc3g | hmm 320mA =~ 1W, they might well be 1W LED units | 01:27 |
ecc3g | w/o heatsink | 01:28 |
ecc3g | the dies look very small for 1W but might just be due to the lens | 01:28 |

Lava_Croft | the only thing keeping the right iphone from not falling apart into glass shards is the cae | 01:31 |
Lava_Croft | case* | 01:31 |
ecc3g | hmm... I really wonder why people like showing off their broken iphones,... it screams "idiot" to me... | 01:52 |
Lava_Croft | this is even worse | 01:53 |
Lava_Croft | this is the woman's 9th iphone | 01:53 |
ecc3g | ouch. | 01:53 |
Lava_Croft | she cant get a new one because the insurance company finally said 'screw you' | 01:53 |
Lava_Croft | the left one is my wife's | 01:54 |
ecc3g | need to figure out how to take care of them. | 01:54 |
Lava_Croft | like just not dropping them i guess | 01:54 |
ecc3g | something like that. | 01:54 |
Lava_Croft | my wife's dropped quite a few times, it has just a few little dents in the aluminium band | 01:54 |
Lava_Croft | so i dont know what some people do to it! | 01:55 |
ecc3g | shit happens... but... why show off a broken iphone | 01:55 |
Lava_Croft | its power reflected in vanity! | 01:55 |
ecc3g | honestly I don't even recognize iphones, heh. I would have just passed it off as "phone X" if you haven't told me... | 01:56 |
Lava_Croft | oh, its easily recognizable as an iphone | 01:56 |
*** dos1 has quit IRC | 01:57 | |
Lava_Croft | but i see that iphone4 every day, so im probably rather biased:) | 01:57 |
ecc3g | now... a broken n900... time to mourn. heh | 01:58 |
Lava_Croft | ill mourn when its dead, broken can be repaired | 01:59 |
ecc3g | heeh | 01:59 |
*** sardini has quit IRC | 02:00 | |

ecc3g | unlike iphones, the number of n900s out there can only go down :( | 02:01 |
Lava_Croft | sadly, yes | 02:01 |
ecc3g | I dropped my n900 a few days ago onto concrete, my heart stopped, fortunately it was only a foot or so, and it's still working OK... | 02:02 |
Lava_Croft | dont speak of such things, its awful | 02:03 |
ecc3g | no cracks fortunately | 02:03 |
Lava_Croft | you get near-heart attacks all the time | 02:03 |
ecc3g | I shouldn't. :( | 02:03 |
Lava_Croft | everytime it moves in a direction i dont want to, i go aaah | 02:03 |
Lava_Croft | its silly, for a dumb computer | 02:03 |

jon_y | DocScrutinizer05: I was once told by a lead programmer to *avoid* multithread code | 14:24 |
jon_y | that real enough yet? | 14:25 |
jon_y | she says it makes code hard to read and understand | 14:25 |
DocScrutinizer05 | it's a pity that natural languages have a ubiquitous concept of gender | 14:25 |
Lava_Croft | it's a pity that was is called a 'real programmer' is always this bro-tastic male person | 14:25 |
jon_y | also, make sure to hang the main UI so that our users know our app is busy | 14:25 |
jon_y | definitely not bro for rejecting multithreaded and responsive code | 14:27 |
DocScrutinizer05 | from a code efficiency perspective it's just insane to bother about the 2% of female programmers | 14:27 |
Lava_Croft | that is implying code is effecient :) | 14:28 |
DocScrutinizer05 | I guess wemon are too smart to act like real programers | 14:28 |
Lava_Croft | healthy dose of female improves anything that is overly male | 14:28 |
DocScrutinizer05 | code is efficient inside a gzip archive | 14:28 |
DocScrutinizer05 | yes, alas we're far away from anything like a healthy dose of female in IT | 14:29 |
jon_y | instead of a hung UI, why not make a modal progress bar window? | 14:29 |
jon_y | Nope, multithreaded code is ugly | 14:29 |

jon_y | btw, anybody know if int * a = (int[2]) {1,2}; legal in C? | 14:32 |
jon_y | kind of funky looking but seems to work | 14:33 |
jon_y | not sure what kind of search term to put in google | 14:33 |
DocScrutinizer05 | coding the article http://www-personal.edfac.usyd.edu.au/staff/souters/Humour/Real.Programmer.Stories.html in a gender neutral way would cause massive drop in code efficiency, that's just not justified given we talk about maybe 0.1% of female subjects that are tr´argeted by that text | 14:33 |
DocScrutinizer05 | and those 0.1% would probably feel insulted | 14:34 |
DocScrutinizer05 | since they never forget the name of their husband | 14:34 |
DocScrutinizer05 | "A Real Programmer might or might not know his wife's name. He does, however, know the entire ASCII (or EBCDIC) code table." | 14:34 |
jon_y | does a real programmer do VB? | 14:36 |
DocScrutinizer05 | LOL | 14:36 |
amin007110 | lol | 14:36 |
jon_y | probably a troll, I saw one at thedailywtf, he said C should inherit single "=" from VB in if/else comparisons | 14:37 |
DocScrutinizer05 | read the article, a Real Programmer does FORTRAN exclusively (except the few assembler things he uses to tackle the problems that can't get done in FORTRAN) | 14:37 |
jon_y | I should learn Fortran | 14:37 |

jon_y | I present to your a custom tree structure in java, with no tree seaarch, nor a way to remove elements after it's added | 14:40 |
jon_y | since no one thought it through | 14:40 |
jon_y | in fact, it doesn't even have any public methods | 14:40 |
DocScrutinizer05 | methods? | 14:41 |

DocScrutinizer05 | not sth a Real Programmer would ever bother with | 14:41 |
jon_y | everything is inherited | 14:41 |
jon_y | that kind of bullshit convinced me agile is bullshit | 14:41 |
jon_y | the reason for such a crappy class was because "customer never asked for anything more that requires it!" | 14:42 |
jon_y | I gave up trying to refactor the code after a few weeks | 14:43 |
DocScrutinizer05 | jon_y: you honestly need to read http://www-personal.edfac.usyd.edu.au/staff/souters/Humour/Real.Programmer.Stories.html | 14:43 |
jon_y | sure | 14:43 |
jon_y | also, everything that uses the tree struct uses typeof instead of proper inheritance | 14:44 |
jon_y | completly neglecting the purose of OOP to begin with | 14:44 |
DocScrutinizer05 | >>What of the future? It is a matter of some concern to Real Programmers that the latest generation of computer programmers are not being brought up with the same outlook on life as their elders. Many of them have never seen a computer with a front panel. Hardly anyone graduating from school these days can do hex arithmetic without a calculator. College graduates these days are soft -- protected from the realities of programming by source | 14:44 |
DocScrutinizer05 | level debuggers, text editors that count parentheses, and "user friendly" operating systems. Worst of all, some of these alleged "computer scientists" manage to get degrees without ever learning FORTRAN!

DocScrutinizer05 | hehehehehehehe muhahaha | 14:47 |
jon_y | eg using map instead of set for unique objects | 14:48 |
DocScrutinizer05 | in FORTRAN there's no for(;;) | 14:48 |
jon_y | well, it's java | 14:48 |
DocScrutinizer05 | there are calculated goto | 14:49 |
jon_y | I should get promoted to code review nazi at work | 14:49 |
DocScrutinizer05 | but nothing you couldn't do with smart self-modifying code | 14:49 |
jon_y | job should come with an armband and a whip, along with stylish designer uniform | 14:50 |
DocScrutinizer05 | you know how COBOL (and so probably FORTAN as well) do subroutine calls? There's no stack. On entering the the subroutine, the return address gets written to the GOTO at end of the subroutine. Funny when you later on run into same code segment by some other means than a subroutine call | 14:52 |

jon_y | DocScrutinizer05: I bet it's real fun when it gets ported to harvard archs | 14:53 |
DocScrutinizer05 | COBOL is per definitionem not multithreaded | 14:54 |
jon_y | what about fortran? | 14:54 |
fizzie | In FORTRAN(-90; not before) you just prepend the word "recursive" in front of subroutine/function, and then the implementation will deal with it however it likes. | 14:55 |
jon_y | recursive? | 14:55 |
jon_y | it has to be recursive? | 14:55 |
DocScrutinizer05 | I guess they meant reentrant | 14:55 |
jon_y | does fortran has any concept of static variables? | 14:56 |
DocScrutinizer05 | but probably that term wasn't minted yet, when FORTRAN90 got defined | 14:56 |
jon_y | is there a fortran 2003? | 14:57 |

DocScrutinizer05 | err procedure pointers, ok ok | 15:01 |

DocScrutinizer05 | merlin1991: no, the problem is autobuilder, which is only 10% midgard and 90% friggin scripts | 22:33 |
DocScrutinizer05 | merlin1991: and our real problem is autobuilder / repo-management spamming our db with bogus records, until everything explodes | 22:34 |
DocScrutinizer05 | see ^^^ <_nicolai_> merlin1991, please do so. It is for my "ledpulse" package. maemo package interface says: "old version cleaned ..." every 4 hours | 22:36 |
DocScrutinizer05 | other packages do that every 4 minutes | 22:36 |
*** zap_ has joined #maemo | 22:38 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | and I _have_ _to_ shut down this whole stuff when that continues, we already have packages that can't get inspected via package interface since they are simply too long | 22:38 |
DocScrutinizer05 | I several times explained we have no maintainer for autobuilder, Eero is busy, and x-fade missing in action completely since end of last year | 22:41 |
DocScrutinizer05 | sure you're free to ask teh guys we asked 100 times before, maybe you're more lucky | 22:42 |
DocScrutinizer05 | and I definitely will shut down stuff in a few days, if nothing changes in that regard | 22:43 |
DocScrutinizer05 | junk piles up in our db, and no simple means to remove it from there | 22:44 |
win7mac | stuff like autobilder or stuff like m.o? | 22:44 |
DocScrutinizer05 | and things approach a degree of fubar where everything comes to a grinding halt anyway, so I hope I will shut it down before ZILCH works anymore | 22:45 |
DocScrutinizer05 | win7mac: that depends what's fsckdup when I shut it down | 22:45 |
DocScrutinizer05 | we already see fatal failures in www.m.o due to oversized package histories | 22:46 |
DocScrutinizer05 | I won't disable single packages/view/* pages | 22:46 |
DocScrutinizer05 | if that gets worse that what it already is I will have to take down www.m.o as well | 22:47 |
win7mac | are you 1000% sure thats not because the raid is 99,9% stuffed? | 22:47 |
*** utanapischti has joined #maemo | 22:48 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | fun detail: when a www.m.o/packages/view/<packagename> page doesn't work anymore, then there's not even a midgard way to delete that whole package, since... the page doesn't work anymore | 22:48 |
DocScrutinizer05 | no, I'm 10000000000000000000000% sure | 22:49 |
DocScrutinizer05 | :-S | 22:49 |
win7mac | goooooooooooooooood ;-) | 22:49 |
win7mac | I still just can't believe it... ;) | 22:49 |
DocScrutinizer05 | you just can't believe what? | 22:51 |
*** sid_ has quit IRC | 22:52 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | that a 4 or 6 "removing old package version from repository" every 4 minutes, since January, do eventually result in insanely large web pages on ~packages that result in apache processes stalling or getting killed due to OOM? | 22:52 |
DocScrutinizer05 | or that we have no means to remove those 500 events per day for a single package from our 946 midgard datatables | 22:53 |
DocScrutinizer05 | or that I *WILL* shut down everything that is acting self-destructive, in a week the latest | 22:54 |
DocScrutinizer05 | http://maemo.org/packages/view/findmine/ | 22:56 |
DocScrutinizer05 | and that's one of the still working ones | 22:56 |
*** Pali has quit IRC | 22:56 | |
win7mac | still loads... | 22:56 |
DocScrutinizer05 | at least it been a few days ago | 22:57 |
DocScrutinizer05 | we have other ones I don't want to post here since every time somebody clicks them, a apache/php process on www dies from out-of-memory | 22:58 |
win7mac | I mean, I could think of having so limited and probably heavily fragmented disc-space may add to the trouble already there | 22:59 |
DocScrutinizer05 | nonsense | 22:59 |
win7mac | ok | 22:59 |
win7mac | please don't explain how it works, I trust you ;) | 23:00 |
DocScrutinizer05 | I wish I could explain how it works, actually I can't even explain how it doesn't work | 23:00 |
win7mac | hm... have no faith in council setting up a mail like discussed in #meeting 3 weeks ago? | 23:01 |
*** ChanServ has quit IRC | 23:02 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | but I can point you to http://monitor.maemo.org/ganglia/?r=hour&cs=&ce=&m=load_one&s=by+name&c=maemo&h=&host_regex=&max_graphs=0&tab=m&vn=&sh=2&z=small&hc=4 | 23:02 |
win7mac | ^^ I mean that it will have some kind of positive answer? | 23:02 |
DocScrutinizer05 | you're constatly urging me to c&p what I wrote 15 min or hours or sometimes days before | 23:03 |
DocScrutinizer05 | I several times explained we have no maintainer for autobuilder, Eero is busy, and x-fade missing in action completely since end of last year | 23:03 |
win7mac | yeah and there was an idea | 23:03 |
DocScrutinizer05 | [2013-07-12 21:42:01] <DocScrutinizer05> sure you're free to ask teh guys we asked 100 times before, maybe you're more lucky | 23:03 |

DocScrutinizer05 | what makes you think things changed to the better for me? | 23:07 |
win7mac | don't you see I understand that and try to help out? | 23:08 |
win7mac | I'll ping thedead | 23:10 |

*** _nicolai_ has quit IRC | 23:30 | |
*** sivang_ has quit IRC | 23:30 | |
shawnjefferson | what happened to that guy (jacewoski?) that said he'd help out with autobuilder? | 23:38 |
DocScrutinizer05 | he thought it's unbearable to coordinate own actions with sysops | 23:38 |
merlin1991 | DocScrutinizer05: the problem though stopping everything from running is 1 script that does not run thanks to a problem with midgard | 23:39 |
merlin1991 | so yes I can pinpoint it down to midgard | 23:39 |
DocScrutinizer05 | *shrug* | 23:40 |
DocScrutinizer05 | to me it seems there's too much running | 23:40 |
*** rc_ has joined #maemo | 23:42 | |
shawnjefferson | ah, so there was some process he didn't want to follow. Are all the scripts well understood? with all the smart guys around here, it seems impossible that it can't be understood and hopefully tweaked to work better. Ideally it would be nice to have a dev/test environment for all this... they are virtual right? | 23:43 |
DocScrutinizer05 | that's not feasible | 23:44 |
shawnjefferson | not feasible due to money? resources? | 23:44 |
DocScrutinizer05 | resources | 23:44 |
*** sivang has joined #maemo | 23:44 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | we need ~4..6 VM running concurrently | 23:45 |
DocScrutinizer05 | if not more | 23:45 |
shawnjefferson | for dev/test someone could run that on their workstation | 23:45 |
DocScrutinizer05 | good luck | 23:45 |
win7mac | anthonie tried that, right? - progress so far? | 23:48 |
*** NeutrinoPower has joined #maemo | 23:48 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | anthonie tried to install ONE vm with midgard1 | 23:48 |
*** unclouded has joined #maemo | 23:48 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | midgard is mysql based however | 23:49 |
DocScrutinizer05 | and we can't clone that db in one complete chunk, since it has sensitive data as well | 23:50 |
DocScrutinizer05 | and it is the 2nd vm in that picture | 23:50 |
shawnjefferson | not install, clone. it's how it would be handled in an enterprise. i understand there are constraints here though. without a "playground" it's impossible to make significant changes or test things like upgrades | 23:50 |
DocScrutinizer05 | garage with postgresql is 3rd | 23:50 |
*** LauRoman has joined #maemo | 23:50 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | autbuilder 4th | 23:51 |
*** lizardo has quit IRC | 23:51 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | repo 5th | 23:51 |
shawnjefferson | sensitive data, I assumed so. you'd have to clone and then scrub the sensitive data. a big job for sure, but worth it imo | 23:51 |
*** sivang has quit IRC | 23:52 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | sure, if we find somebody to do that, he can en passant fix the problems we face right now | 23:52 |
DocScrutinizer05 | for sure the competence any such person needs for doing that clonig&scrubbing is sufficient to fix the simple little bugs we have right now easily | 23:53 |
shawnjefferson | I imagine that would take a small team | 23:53 |
*** Martix has joined #maemo | 23:54 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | for example we have scripts with hardcoded mysql account credentials | 23:54 |
shawnjefferson | ugly but not surprising | 23:54 |
DocScrutinizer05 | and sure, same credentials are in db VM in mysql as well | 23:54 |
DocScrutinizer05 | we have passwd files with 30k user accounts, same for groups | 23:55 |
shawnjefferson | at some point you need to make a balance between operations and security and some folks need to be trusted | 23:55 |
DocScrutinizer05 | yes, but I won't hand out clones of our sensitive data | 23:56 |
win7mac | would the invest in a 3rd blade make sense to have those vm's needed for testing? They could later be used for other purposes | 23:57 |
DocScrutinizer05 | it would help | 23:57 |
shawnjefferson | I wouldn't either (security is my day job). what would we need to have our own dev environment at iphh, under our (your) control? | 23:57 |
shawnjefferson | a new blade? some storage? | 23:57 |
DocScrutinizer05 | yes | 23:58 |
*** RP_ has quit IRC | 23:58 | |
DocScrutinizer05 | we've already set up a very limited test env for www VM | 23:58 |
DocScrutinizer05 | with a local mysql to emulate the central one | 23:58 |
DocScrutinizer05 | to test midgard upgrade etc | 23:59 |
shawnjefferson | to me it sounds like that is quickly becoming a priority, especially with all the interactions between m.o. systems | 23:59 |
win7mac | *new blade, some storage and some testers! | 23:59 |
shawnjefferson | testers and admins | 23:59 |
DocScrutinizer05 | no manpower to pursue it further | 23:59 |
shawnjefferson | and some oversight/planning | 23:59 |
