Overview

Pyogp is an open source project between Linden Lab and AWG to support the testing of the Open Grid Protocol (OGP). Written in Python, Pyogp will consist initially of a client library and test functionality that will enable testing of OGP enabled virtual worlds like Second Life and compatible OpenSim implementations. These components will expand as the effort matures.

Project Status

  • June 26, 2008 - We have begun to write some code to prototype the client library framework. We have also discussed some of the details of the client lib and how we should begin to structure it.

Project Tasks (Roadmap)

We plan on using the public jira (pjira) to list all of our tasks. This isn't currently set up, but we will be sure to keep you updated on the status. These are tasks that need to be accomplished for the overall project. Each part of the project (library and harness) also has its own task list.

  1. Commit rights - need to get Tao and other contributors commit rights to the svn repo
  2. Expand on the roadmap - start filling in more details so we know exactly what to do and when
  3. Task list - the real down-n-dirty list of what needs to be done
  4. Start planning structure for Pyogp overall, with an initial emphasis on the client library.
    • ZCA, buildout and eggs have been tapped as components/attributes of Pyogp...
  5. Start planning structure for test harness (see Pyogp/Test Framework)

Recently completed tasks include:

  1. Created pyogp@lists.secondlife.com mailing list
  2. License - The Apache V2 License has been selected as the license of choice for pyogp (or whatever name we agree upon, see next point).
  3. Naming - Pyogp
  4. Repository - So Mercurial, aka hg, was looking promising, but we decided internally that we aren't quite ready for that. There is a move toward Mercurial internally, but we need to work this out before moving forward with it on this effort. It is quite possible that this library and test harness work will become a guinea pig for hg with Linden Lab in the open source arena. Until then, I bring you pyogp on SVN: http://svn.secondlife.com/trac/linden/browser/projects/2008/pyogp.
  5. Contributions - As we are going to be hosting the source code for this, contributions will be subject to Linden Lab's standard contributor's agreement. I hope this doesn't prevent good work here...
  6. Set up collaboration methods
    • Meeting Times - Enus is out of the Linden Lab office until July 14th. June 28th is unavailable for him, the following week is some silly American holiday, and the following Friday (July 11) is a travel day). July 18th will be the first sc heduled office hours where Pyogp will be a primary topic.

In World Meetings

Pyogp/In-World-Meetings - visit this page to see the agendas and discussions that took place
We're going to start having daily meetings at "infinity is full of stars" in Levenhall at 9:30AM SLT each day. These meetings are for the PyOGP coders to meet and discuss design, process and status. In the near term, these are likely to be "somewhat beefy" meetings where design issues are discussed and differences hammered out. In the longer term, these will hopefully be more "Agile Stand-Up" style meetings where we discuss: a. what we've done in the last 24 hours, b. what we're going to do in the next 24 and c. what we're blocked on.
