OH Transcripts

Hi Jeremy =)
After your Q&A session today, I expanded the Knowledge Base article a little and stumbled upon your office hour transcripts. I wanted to let you know that SL Resident Kuraiko Yoshikawa programmed a chatlog wikifier. So you can copy and paste a chatlog and easily turn it in a Wiki compatible format. You can find the wikifier over here, with an explanation and example at this page. Just wanted to let you know and maybe you find it useful =)
I'm really sad that wasn't able to stay till the end of the Q&A session (due to RL interruption) and therefor missed the chatty part.

Edits on Mesh:

Are you sure that it is effective that you divided the overview (I think the page was not more than that) into so many small pieces? I find it harder to read and to collect all informations as if all were on one page. --Kuraiko Yoshikawa 19:40, 6 May 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for the comment! I have been asked to created a "Getting Started" guide for Mesh, and will be filling out the new topics with more complete information. Much of the info that was there is now obsolete or will not apply to the First Look. Jeremy Linden 19:45, 6 May 2010 (UTC)

Oh, I see! Thanks for the fast reply. --Kuraiko Yoshikawa 19:54, 6 May 2010 (UTC)

KB2

Very clever. I've done something similar in the LSL documentation with regards to PrimitiveParams constants. It can be very powerful but at the same time can be quite a hassle. One thing to keep in mind is category inclusion, there is no easy way to see which transclusion results in which inclusion. However when it comes to the design of the wiki engine, I feel there is much to be desired in how it is edited and organized. I'm rambling, sorry. -- Strife ^{(talk|contribs)} 20:32, 26 October 2010 (UTC)

Thanks Strife. KB2, cool as it is, is actually an intermediate holding area for a big import to a new third-party tool. More information as we're allowed to give it. Jeremy Linden 21:10, 27 October 2010 (UTC)

new llGetRegionTimeDilation caveat

Is this a response to a specific Jira and if so, which one? I want to add a link to it to the documentation. -- Strife ^{(talk|contribs)} 11:08, 15 May 2012 (PDT)

• Jeremy Linden 11:51, 16 May 2012 (PDT): I am not aware of a specific Jira, but I was asked to update the LSL documentation to cover the region idling feature, which is intended to be transparent to Residents with the exception of the stated caveat. More information is available on the forums:

LSL syntax highlighting on the wiki (and the editor in the viewer):

Hello, I found your name on the bottom of Project:About stating that you're in charge here on the wiki. I contacted Torley Linden via his user talk page a while back and asked about an update to the LSL syntax highlighting on the wiki and the editor in the viewer. It seems Torley is not on the wiki team anymore and I'm not sure about the status of the requested update. If you're busy with other stuff, feel free to contact me and send me a copy of the highlighting file(s). I'll do my best to update it (them) ASAP, thanks! -- Kireji ^{(talk|contribs)} 12:04, 2 November 2012 (PDT)

Hi Kireji. I believe Torley sent me the updated list of keywords to be highlighted in LSL. I'll take a look at how the wiki does syntax highlighting and update it as soon as I get a chance. -- Jeremy Linden 11:18, 15 November 2012 (PST)

Thank you. -- Kireji ^{(talk|contribs)} 11:55, 15 November 2012 (PST)

How's the update coming along? -- Kireji ^{(talk|contribs)} 8:34, 1 January 2013 (PST)

I've provided wikimedia with a patch to the LSL syntax highlight, maybe that'll fix it. You don't seem to be working on this issue anyway. -- Kireji ^{(talk|contribs)} 4:11, 14 April 2013 (PST)

I've provided the GeSHi team with a fix directly, too. A copy of the file can be found on github. The file is part of the GeSHi extension for mediawiki. I'd appreciate someone at Linden Labs implementing this. I've been trying to help getting this implemented for over half a year, all the work that's left is a simple copy & paste on your side now. Kireji Haiku 08:00, 2 May 2013 (PDT)

I filed BUG-2708 regarding this issue and linked a source to get updated files there. Please do take a look at it, thanks. -- Kireji Haiku 09:24, 5 June 2013 (PDT)

Hmm... I made the updates 6 months ago and sent them to be incorporated into the wiki on this end. I'll poke the appropriate parties and make sure they know what needs to happen. Jeremy Linden 10:04, 5 June 2013 (PDT)

Education/Resource Page edits

Howdy. Several links to pages describing listservs and non-profit education groups have been removed from the [Education/Resources] page. The archives for two of these show recent activity; did not check the third, as it is described as "...only available to the list members." If a list in still active, why remove it?

• Healthcare Educators
• Non-Profit Educators
• Second Life for Academic Researchers

The following groups still have an active community in world. If a non-profit organization is still active, why not include it in list?

• International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE) in Second Life
• Nonprofit Commons (SLURL)

Arguably, the page needs work (see my recent edits); but, removal of active communities is...puzzling. azwaldo 01:44, 25 July 2013 (PDT)
