SignpostMarv Martin: note on zopflipng

== optipng vs zopflipng ==
I've done a little experiment with [https://code.google.com/p/zopfli/source/browse/README.zopflipng Google's zopflipng tool]; Although zopflipng produces smaller files than optipng, it's likely not worth the user's time to run something as picky as `zopflipng --iterations=1024 --splitting=3 --filters=01234mepb` (which took approx 50 minutes to execute on [[:File:WOOLYBEAR INTERSECTION.png|WOOLYBEAR INTERSECTION.png]]) for this wiki.

SignpostMarv Martin: /* LLRAW fidelity */ tweaky tweaky

== LLRAW fidelity ==

While tinkering with LLRAW export code, I decided to plot a graph of the values one can fit into Linden Lab's 13 channel RAW terrain format.

[[File:Graph-of-possible-terrain-values.png|1024px|thumb|image is rather wide :P]]

* y-axis is the altitude of a point on the terrain
* first non-zero value is 0.0078125
* excluding non-zero values, the number of unique values is 17577 (non-zero sans uniqueness would be 255x255)
* unless a green value of 255 is hardcoded to a divisor of 2, the highest value is 508.0078125 <math>255/(255/128)</math>

// Features:
// -Single script "Prim Puppeteer" like animation tool
// -Playback controllable through external scripts
// -Animation is scalable and resizeable
// -On-touch trigger built-in
// -Completely free and open sourced

// License:
// You are welcome to use this anyway you like, even bring to other grids
// outside of Second Life. If you try to sell what I'm giving away for
// free, you will be cursed with unimaginably bad juju.

they've also got this image on their website: https://www.eldexchange.eu/templates/ildex-home/images/slpartner2.jpg

Is the "official exchange partner" a phrase that third-party exchanges are permitted to use ?

Although the header says "Content Creation/Mesh Import/Scripting", currently topics are focused on anything related to the mesh import project. Feature requests, bug reports, design feedback, questions, comments, or example content are welcome.

Priority will be given to topics that are posted in advance and are relevant to the goals of the office hour. Feel free to include relevant links to JIRA or wiki pages.

Please add topics below '''prior to 10:50 AM'''. Also, please put your SL name down so we can follow up if we have questions. Thanks!
# New Usergroup time, starting next week! [Nyx Linden]
# Can you explain how undecomposed prim-type physics shapes are made? In physics shape display I see one-sided surfaces, missing sides of solids, and small small features absent. Decomposed surfaces are 2-sided. [Drongle McMahon]
# Can you update us on recent progress and tell us what your current priorities are? [Vivienne Daguerre]
# Is there anything in particular you need us to test? [Vivienne Daguerre]
# Please give an update on re-adding bone length recognition to the importer.
# Why do some cts jiras get spirited off into Shining, leaving no trace in cts? [Drongle]
# Will LL support or quash the XML hack that allows sculpties to have texture faces? [Bloodsong Termagant]
# I am working on rideables. If one mesh leg costs about 20 prims, and at least 6 alpha iterations are needed to animate each of the 4 legs, that would be 480 prims for the legs alone (and not account for the body, head, neck, and all those flexiprims needed for manes and tails). While scripts are happy, because each mesh object is one link in a set, and avatars don't care because they don't (yet) have a prim limit on what they can wear; wouldn't such a mesh rideable cause a huge amount of prim lag? Should I shelve this project, at least until/unless independantly rigged animated mesh items are supported? If independantly rigged meshes are introduced at some later date, will they still work when worn by an avatar (and not try to glom onto the avatar's armature)? [Bloodsong Termagant]

Wiki Acceptance Tests

2011-02-02T07:37:18Z

SignpostMarv Martin: /* Time */ adding more tests

When upgrading the wiki, or moving to a new operational location, use these tests to ensure that everything is functional.

In all cases, the pages should look the same as they did previously.
The best way to ensure this would be to compare their appearance in the new installation with their appearance in the old (existing) installation.

== Upgrade notes ==

With this upgrade, we are also upgrading a number of extensions. There may be some backward-incompatibilities that require content changes:
* The newer version of the ImageMap extension requires polygon shapes to have an even number of points.

=== Browser compatibility ===

Test with the following browsers:
* FireFox
* Chrome
* Safari
* Opera
* IE

I'm not too worried about versions... as long as we're hitting with a version within the last two major releases.. nothing too old (aka Chrome 5 or 6, FF 3.5 or 3.6, IE 7 or 8, etc)

=== Time ===

* #time:Y-m-dTH:i:s+00:00 - {{#time:Y-m-dTH:i:s+00:00}}
* #time: Y-m-d H:i:s - {{#time: Y-m-d H:i:s}}
* #time: r|now - {{#time: r|now}}

*<tt><nowiki>{{#time: Y-m-d }}</nowiki></tt> → '''{{#time: Y-m-d }}'''
*<tt><nowiki>{{#timel: Y-m-d }}</nowiki></tt> → '''{{#timel: Y-m-d }}'''

== Basic content tests ==
* [[Main Page]] - Check that it looks the same.

=== Images and image pages ===

Make sure all images appear properly, including the SL logo at upper left, CC and MW logos at the bottom, and uploaded images.
Here are a few examples:

* [[:File:Doc office hour 2009-01-14.jpg]]
* [[:File:Kb ARC Default .png]]
* [[:File:V1.23 Cluttered Screen.jpg]]
* [[:File:Torley%27s_awesome_People_Tool_pic.jpg]]

=== Special pages ===
* [[Special:Recentchanges]]
* [[Special:Version]] - check list of extensions and make sure it matches.

=== API ===

To check that the API is active, click this link:
{{SERVER}}{{SCRIPTPATH}}/api.php

=== HTTPS ===

Nowhere on the site should there be HTTPS errors (i.e. broken lock in the browser), especially not on the Login page. Acid test is IE, which complains the most. Chrome has a weird bug where sometimes it'll complain about HTTPS problems while no other browser does.

Pages to test:
* Front page
* Login page
* User page (Torley's?)
* File:Image page

=== Namespaces ===

The following query returns a list of the namespaces defined:

* {{SERVER}}{{SCRIPTPATH}}/api.php?action=query&meta=siteinfo&siprop=general|namespaces|namespacealiases|statistics
This should return the following:

=== Protected namespaces ===

* Make sure only Lindens can edit pages in the LLO namespacee, e.g. [[Linden Lab Official:Abandoned Land FAQ]].

=== Search ===
Test "Google Search" in the sidebar:
# Enter a search term.
# Click '''Google Search'''.
Make sure it returns reasonable results.

=== Subpages in main namespace===

Go to [[Wiki Acceptance Test/Subpages]] -- first line should just say "Wiki Acceptance Test", second line should just say "Subpages". If they both say "Wiki Acceptance Test/Subpages", then this isn't working right.

== Extensions ==

Check that [[Special:Version]] lists the same set of installed extensions.

=== Cite ===

The special page [[Special:Cite]] should exist.

=== Flagged Revisions ===

# Edit a page in the [[Knowledge Base]].
# Check that the edit becomes a "draft" revision.
# As a reviewer user, approve the edit, and check that it becomes the "stable" revision.

Check the [[Admin Dashboard]] to ensure that pages show up in the various FR special pages.

=== MathStatFunctions ===

If these show the correct values, then this extension is working:

*pi = {{ #const: pi }}
*e = {{ #const: e }}
*sqrt(2) = {{#const:sqrt(2)}}

===SimpleTable===

See [[Performance Testers#Results]].

===Variables===

Set the variable "myvar" to be "1234: {{#vardefine:myvar|1234}}

If the following shows "1234", then this is working properly:

The value is >>> {{#var:myvar}} <<<

===VideoFlash ===

===Widgets ===
Check that the following list of widgets shows up: https://wiki.secondlife.com/w/index.php?title=Special%3AAllPages&from=&to=&namespace=274

* [[Widget:Blip.tv]]
* [[Widget:Chat Transcript]]
* [[Widget:Feed]]
* [[Widget:Flickr]]

* [[Widget:Scribd]]
* [[Widget:SlideShare]]
* [[Widget:Twitter]]
* [[Widget:Vimeo]]
* [[Widget:Widgetbox]]
* [[Widget:YouTube]]
* [[Widget:YouTubeChannel]]

Do we need to test each individual widget? Probably not. Maybe just test a couple.

===Add metas ===

Check that each page has
<nowiki><meta name="mat" content="PG_NOT" /> </nowiki>

in its <head>.

===Breadcrumbs2 ===
Check that [[MediaWiki:Breadcrumbs]] exists and that breadcrumbs are displayed properly.

===GeSHiHighlight===

If the following is displayed as formatted text the extension is working.

<lsl>default { state_entry() { llOwnerSay(""); } }</lsl>

Also see [[Syntax Highlighting Examples]].

===Google Analytics Integration ===

Check that each wiki page has the following at the bottom:
<pre>
<script type="text/javascript">
var gaJsHost = (("https:" == document.location.protocol) ? "https://ssl." : "http://www.");
document.write(unescape("%3Cscript src='" + gaJsHost + "google-analytics.com/ga.js' type='text/javascript'%3E%3C/script%3E"));
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
var pageTracker = _gat._getTracker("UA-190376-9");
pageTracker._initData();
pageTracker._trackPageview();
</script>
</pre>

===HeaderFooter===

Check that [https://wiki.secondlife.com/w/index.php?title=Special%3AAllPages&from=&to=&namespace=100 a page in the LLO namespace] shows the following header and footer:
* [[MediaWiki:Hf-nsheader-Linden Lab Official]]
* [[MediaWiki:Hf-nsfooter-Linden Lab Official]]

=== Rename User ===

See if [[Special:RenameUser]] exists.

===ReplaceText===
If this page exists, then the extension is installed. [[Special:ReplaceText]]. Try it out and confirm that it works properly.

===ParserFunctions===

If what follows is the current date and time formatted as Y m d H:i:s then this extension is working.

{{#time: Y m d H:i:s}}

===StringFunctions===

If the number on the line below is 4, then this extension is working.

{{#len:test}}

Map API VAG

2011-01-07T15:48:59Z

SignpostMarv Martin: /* Related JIRA Issues */ adding WEB-1560

:this is an initial draft so scope and focus are still fairly open. Please add comments to the [[{{TALKPAGENAME}}]] if you have slightly different viewpoints so we can try to converge on a common view. This discussion could also expose other similar VAG that are needed in this area

The Map API Viewpoint Advocacy Group exists to ...

See the [[Architecture Working Group]] and the [[Viewpoint Advocacy Groups]] for more information.

== Areas of concern addressed by the viewpoint ==
* Improving the usefulness of the Webmap API to both client, server and SL Viewer applications
* Permitting third-party developers to develop their own APIs by providing them with a data source suitable for updating their database
** Analysing use cases where the first party API is insufficient in order to improve the first party API

== Source of Viewpoint ==

== Use Cases ==

See the [[Architecture Working Group Glossary]] and [[usecase templates]] for more information on creating usecases. One liners are fine (and better than nothing) but more detail will result in a better understanding and a better architecture.

== Related JIRA Issues ==
The following JIRA issues are known problems that this VAG would like to see resolved in any future architecture. The purpose of this list it to avoid problems that exist in the curent architecture. The more typical JIRAs that are more short term in nature or can be resolved by simple code or design change should not be listed here.

* {{Jira|WEB-49}}, ''TSL lacks a Map API''
* {{Jira|WEB-87}} ''Webmap Images not updating''
* {{Jira|WEB-376}}, ''Map API does not properly handle SLPoint with region names''
* {{Jira|WEB-405}}, ''SLMAP API - disableVoiceInfo not working''
* {{Jira|WEB-473}}, ''webmap API indicates regions occupying multiple points in space simultaneously''
* {{Jira|WEB-474}}, ''Postcards need to send Global Coordinates since removal of SLPoint() from the SL Map API''
* {{Jira|WEB-503}}, ''sense; voice map API; it makes none, aka "query returns empty data set instead of error''
* {{JIRA|WEB-504}}, ''PHP output mixed with javascript output''
* {{JIRA|WEB-1560}}, ''Apply a OSS license to the SLURL.com JavaScript''

{{hCalendar subscribe}}
== Convenience ==
The previous generation of Office Hours templates where created to improve productivity. Office Hours were being listed in multiple places- and as duplication of data increases, so does the effort to keep it all up to date.

The problem then developed that Residents and Lindens alike wanted to be able to keep track of the events on Google Calendars, iCal and other calendar services/programs. There used to be an official calendar maintained by a Linden, which fell behind in updates, and there is now a calendar maintained by a Resident. The problem with maintaining a separate resource is that it needs to be kept up-to-date with any changes made.

Which is where the hCalendar event templates come in- the ability to automate the generation of a calendar without relying on a Linden Lab employee or Resident to set aside some time/resources to maintain a calendar.

== hCalendar ==
hCalendar is a [http://microformats.org/wiki/hcalendar microformat]- a series of class attributes and other standard HTML tricks that replicate the functionality of the pre-existing iCalendar standard (aka [http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2445.txt RFC 2445]).

hCalendar allows calendar data to be embedded in a web page without breaking the HTML standard, and also allows for the web page to be transposed easily into an iCalendar feed, via such 3rd party services as [http://technorati.com/events/ Technorati], or the W3C's own [http://www.w3.org/People/Bos/Hcalproxy/ hCal Proxy].

== Usage ==
[[Image:Office Hours in Thunderbird.png|thumb|right|Embedded calendar data in Office Hours article being displayed in Thunderbird]]
The general behaviour that emerged from the Office Hours is that most office hours are done every week on the same day at the same time of day. This template acts as a wrapper which takes that behaviour into mind, simplifying the process of declaring the Office Hours as a recurring event.

If an article lists events that use the hCalendar event series of templates, it is a good idea to include the [[Template:hCalendar subscribe|<nowiki>{{hCalendar subscribe}}</nowiki> template ]] at the top of the page so that Residents can easily add the embedded calendar to their Calendar service/program.

=== Variables ===

* '''Resident'''- The name of the Resident that is hosting the Office Hours
* '''description'''- A good place to let the other Residents know what'll be covered at your Office Hours
* '''weekday'''- What day of the week the Office Hours take place ''multiple templates will be required for each day Office Hours are held''.
* '''start'''- What time of day the Office Hours start '''''make sure to include the timezone!''''' (PST and PDT will be auto-replaced to SLT for the convenience of Residents)
* '''end'''- What time of day the Office Hours finish '''''make sure to include the timezone!''''' (PST and PDT will be auto-replaced to SLT for the convenience of Residents)
* '''location'''- a SLurl to the location the Office Hours are held.
* '''voice'''- Whether or not the Office Hours will be voice-enabled.
** Use a single asterisk- "*" for the Main Grid,
** Use "teen" for the Teen Grid.

Map API VAG

SignpostMarv Martin: /* In world meetings */ postponing meeting

:this is an initial draft so scope and focus are still fairly open. Please add comments to the [[{{TALKPAGENAME}}]] if you have slightly different viewpoints so we can try to converge on a common view. This discussion could also expose other similar VAG that are needed in this area

The Map API Viewpoint Advocacy Group exists to ...

See the [[Architecture Working Group]] and the [[Viewpoint Advocacy Groups]] for more information.

== Areas of concern addressed by the viewpoint ==
* Improving the usefulness of the Webmap API to both client, server and SL Viewer applications
* Permitting third-party developers to develop their own APIs by providing them with a data source suitable for updating their database
** Analysing use cases where the first party API is insufficient in order to improve the first party API

== Source of Viewpoint ==

== Use Cases ==

See the [[Architecture Working Group Glossary]] and [[usecase templates]] for more information on creating usecases. One liners are fine (and better than nothing) but more detail will result in a better understanding and a better architecture.

== Related JIRA Issues ==
The following JIRA issues are known problems that this VAG would like to see resolved in any future architecture. The purpose of this list it to avoid problems that exist in the curent architecture. The more typical JIRAs that are more short term in nature or can be resolved by simple code or design change should not be listed here.

* {{Jira|WEB-49}}, ''TSL lacks a Map API''
* {{Jira|WEB-87}} ''Webmap Images not updating''
* {{Jira|WEB-376}}, ''Map API does not properly handle SLPoint with region names''
* {{Jira|WEB-405}}, ''SLMAP API - disableVoiceInfo not working''
* {{Jira|WEB-473}}, ''webmap API indicates regions occupying multiple points in space simultaneously''
* {{Jira|WEB-474}}, ''Postcards need to send Global Coordinates since removal of SLPoint() from the SL Map API''
* {{Jira|WEB-503}}, ''sense; voice map API; it makes none, aka "query returns empty data set instead of error''
* {{JIRA|WEB-504}}, ''PHP output mixed with javascript output''
