greenlionhi mithro, what are the problems with build service? :)04:46
mithrogreenlion: it's slow04:57
greenlionoh well04:57
mithrobut it's well supported for generating RPMs04:58
mithrobut I'm using it to do debs04:58
mithrowhich it's less designed for04:58
greenlionI don't see builds for Fedora 10/Rawhide05:00
mithrogreenlion: oh - yeah they only support released versions05:01
greenlionFedora 10 is released05:01
mithrothen it should be supported05:03
mithrosure is!05:04
* mithro adds it to the thousand parsec rpm stuff05:04
greenliongood05:04
* mithro also adds opensuse 11.105:04
greenlioncould you add my gccxml spec there too?05:04
mithrogreenlion: if you set up an account05:05
mithroyou can create your own project to play with05:05
greenlionoh, ok05:05
mithrobe right back05:06
mithrodiner05:06
greenlionI'm wondering why do they call Fedora 10 as i586 while it is i38605:07
greenlionanyway, need to go too, be back later05:07

Landontansell: I don't work on pisg (yet) :P08:37
LandonI've just had preliminary discussions about turning it into a more modular python system08:37
mithroLandon: which branch of python-ogre did you build?08:44
mithrotrunk for v1-6?08:44
*** Noughmad has joined #tp08:45
Landoneasy way to find out?08:46
LandonI'm assuming it's 1.6, why?08:47
Landonah here we go, from the v1-6 branch08:48
Landonbreakfast, be back soon08:48
mithrosvn info08:50
mithroLandon: just wondering08:50
LandonI've got jmtans battleviewer running now as well09:00
LandonI'll post an update to my application after class09:00
mithrogreat!09:02
Landonand I got pdb working! (the most exciting part, heh)09:04
mithroyay!09:09
mithroto be honest I have never used pdb09:09
Landonsame here, but it looks pretty flexible... moreso than my old method of inserting print statements all over09:14
mithroha don't bash the print statement method :)09:24

mithroLandon: binary search! :)10:32
mithroLandon: you'll like my last push to the python-ogre codebase10:33
mithrosupport for multicore machines :)10:33
Landonoohoo!10:33
mithroonly works on the compile step for the wrappers10:33
Landon(although hopefully I don't need to rebuild it in the forseeable future :P)10:34
mithrobut it does help quite a bit on my 8 core machine10:34
mithroLandon: i really hope to get some usable debs sometime in the future10:34
mithrobut for now I'm heading home10:34

num3472(saving game data, Garrick Peschke)14:25
num3472on monday nash said : You need to add a lot more detail on how you will go about it.  Also I'm not convinced from that you understand what it you are doing wrt to saving data and the server.14:26
num3472so I've added a comment revising it14:26

num3472or at least a whole heck of a lot of them17:14
Noughmadllnz: how much of tpproto-cpp is currently functional?17:17
llnzNoughmad: libtpproto-cpp? most of it17:18
llnzonly thing not working is messages and orders17:18
llnznum3472: yes17:18
llnznum3472: mithro started the project and I joined on the first day, designed the protocol and wrote most of the C++ things17:19
NoughmadI was playing (programming, not the game itself) with it today and I got to the point of getting objects17:19
llnzcool17:19
llnzNoughmad: there is a test program which might help17:19
llnzalso look at tpclient-cpptext and tpadmin-cpp17:19
Noughmadthe text client?17:19
NoughmadI wanted to look at it before, but then forgot17:20
num3472so you are behind the c++ stuff17:21
num3472who is behind the python server?17:21
llnznum3472: mithro mostly17:21
num3472so you kinda developed them in tandem17:22
llnzyes17:22
llnzi mostly did the server, and mithro mostly did the client17:23
*** vivri has quit IRC17:23
llnzin the early days17:23
num3472are they structured the same way, cause the C++ server's documentation is really good and I was wondering how much overlap there was17:23
llnzno, the python and C++ servers are very different17:24
llnzthe python server isn't much more than a wrapper around a database17:24
llnzc++ server does a lot more, caching etc17:24
num3472thank you so much for answering my questions btw17:25
num3472I really appreciate it17:25
num3472So that means I need to go look at the python server closer because that will be harder to save the data in17:26
num3472I'll do that latter though. What was it like to startup a project?17:27
llnzthere were a lot of choices to make, direction and vision to decide apon, etc17:28
llnzit took a long time to write any code (1-2 years iirc)17:28
*** bratac has quit IRC17:28
num3472wow17:28
*** bratac has joined #tp17:29
num3472you just had other commitments or was it all spent in the planning?17:29
num3472deciding what you really wanted17:29
num3472had you done any other projects before?17:30
llnzwell, we were both at uni (different ones) doing our degrees17:30
llnzwe were both involved in the WorldForge project17:31
num3472and had gotten a feel for what is involved in a opensource project17:31
num3472initially was it just you and mithro or was there others that came and went?17:33
llnzthere were a few others that hung around, but until nash and JLP joinned (around AI compeitition, early 2007) (iirc)17:36
num3472what has nash done?17:39
Noughmad#if 0 is some evil commenting :)17:51
*** Erroneous has joined #tp17:51
llnznash wrote a client (with an AI inside as well), called galaxie17:51
llnzusing the e17 libraries17:52
llnzand then we have had others join since then17:59
num3472GSoc has been good to you hasn't it?17:59
llnzgood for the project, yes18:01
num3472but not for you?18:04
llnzit helps get things done18:07
llnzit's ok18:07
num3472but it's a lot of hassle for you18:07
llnzjust with working full time and the timezones makes it harder18:08
llnzbut it is really cool to have new people helping out, especially long term18:08
num3472yeah18:08
num3472well I've got to go now, bye18:10
