[2014/03/20 15:01] Duckie Dickins: Hi Yuzuru [2014/03/20 15:02] Lucia Nightfire: why I came early, cause I'd be in the middle of something while on agni and forget too [2014/03/20 15:02] Yuzuru (yuzuru.jewell): Today is holiday in Japan. [2014/03/20 15:02] Duckie Dickins: well then happy holiday [2014/03/20 15:03] Caleb Linden: btw, maestro is out today so I'll try my best to maestro this meeting [2014/03/20 15:03] Caleb Linden: lets wait for a few more minutes [2014/03/20 15:03] Nal (nalates.urriah): Yay Caleb [2014/03/20 15:04] DG-X 3000 Mix Deck: Click on me to get dialog box [2014/03/20 15:04] DG-X 3000 Mix Deck: Type /1a to get adjust dialog box [2014/03/20 15:04] Inara Breen: You need the gold lame jacket, Caleb :) [2014/03/20 15:04] Caleb Linden: yeah [2014/03/20 15:05] Duckie Dickins: see...the jira bot didn't let us down [2014/03/20 15:05] Yuzuru (yuzuru.jewell): Hello, Whirly. [2014/03/20 15:05] Inara Breen: Hey, Whirls! [2014/03/20 15:05] Caleb Linden: sup whirley! [2014/03/20 15:05] Duckie Dickins: err hi whirlz [2014/03/20 15:05] Whirly Fizzle: Hai! [2014/03/20 15:06] Caleb Linden: ok, let's get started. [2014/03/20 15:07] Caleb Linden: Here is the light agenda for today https://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Server_Beta_User_Group [2014/03/20 15:07] Rex Cronon: hello everybody [2014/03/20 15:08] Yuzuru (yuzuru.jewell): Hello, Rex. [2014/03/20 15:08] Inara Breen: Hi, Rex, Theresa [2014/03/20 15:08] Caleb Linden: As you all know, we didn't have any rolls this week. Second Life Server stayed at 14.02.28.287383 and all RC are at 14.03.07.287758 [2014/03/20 15:08] Theresa Tennyson: Hello! [2014/03/20 15:08] Rex Cronon: hi yuzuru [2014/03/20 15:08] Rex Cronon: hi inara [2014/03/20 15:08] Caleb Linden: So I just wanted to see if you ran into any new issues with those builds? [2014/03/20 15:09] Duckie Dickins: other than needing more cowbell? I haven't noticed anything as of yet. [2014/03/20 15:09] Lucia Nightfire: shiney cowbells [2014/03/20 15:09] Caleb Linden: yeah, the cowbell issue got a lot of votes [2014/03/20 15:09] Theresa Tennyson: Do we know anything more about the inventory corruption issues a few people had on the RC's? [2014/03/20 15:11] Caleb Linden: I haven't been following that issue. But I will check. [2014/03/20 15:11] Simon Linden: fwiw there's some back-end work going on right now for the beta grid so don't panic [2014/03/20 15:12] Caleb Linden: thank you simon. [2014/03/20 15:13] Simon Linden: ... that should be done now [2014/03/20 15:16] Caleb Linden: aside from whats out now, i think you would be interested to know that the login issue of agents with number display names will be out with next rc [2014/03/20 15:16] Whirly Fizzle: Oh cool [2014/03/20 15:16] Lucia Nightfire: is there a region running the fix for BUG-5281 [2014/03/20 15:16] Whirly Fizzle: Will that fix the bad characters in a worn group title preventing login too? [2014/03/20 15:17] Caleb Linden: i'll put it on Ahern [2014/03/20 15:17] Caleb Linden: or Bonifacio [2014/03/20 15:17] Simon Linden: I think that's a different one, Whirly [2014/03/20 15:17] Rex Cronon: so now display names likes "noob9999999999" should be able to login without a problem;) [2014/03/20 15:17] Lucia Nightfire: whispers: can you make sure a no public script parcel is present in the region(s) [2014/03/20 15:17] Lucia Nightfire: can you make sure a no public script parcel is present in the region(s) [2014/03/20 15:17] Simon Linden: That would have been fine, Rex. [2014/03/20 15:17] Simon Linden: If they were just 99999999 they had problems [2014/03/20 15:17] Lucia Nightfire: and taht scripts are not disabled at the estate level [2014/03/20 15:18] Simon Linden: it was a subtle change in a low-level library that started treating those as numbers and not strings [2014/03/20 15:19] Simon Linden: I had one item on the meeting agenda which is some help testing group chat [2014/03/20 15:19] Lucia Nightfire: ears are perking there, heh [2014/03/20 15:19] Simon Linden: I'm going to send group invites to everyone nearby ... please join the two groups [2014/03/20 15:20] Second Life: You have been added to the group. [2014/03/20 15:20] Whirly Fizzle: oO are the group chat fixes live here? [2014/03/20 15:20] Second Life: You have been added to the group. [2014/03/20 15:21] Simon Linden: If group chat was ever going to be theoretically fixed we might have new code we'd want to test :P [2014/03/20 15:21] Lucia Nightfire: wheres my fancy title... [2014/03/20 15:21] Simon Linden: They're pretty boring, sorry [2014/03/20 15:21] Anntoni: lol [2014/03/20 15:21] Rex Cronon: i don't think there is enough people here to test grou chat:( [2014/03/20 15:21] Whirly Fizzle: Ebbe already let slip on twitter group chats being looked at btw :P [2014/03/20 15:21] Simon Linden: so don't start right away, but what I'd like to do is have about 5 minutes of testing by sending lots of messages in those two groups, combined with some moving between regions [2014/03/20 15:22] Simon Linden: The 4 corner area near here with Ahern and other regions might be a good spot to fly or walk around [2014/03/20 15:22] Lucia Nightfire: at least one of teh groups starts with an "f" in teh UUID [2014/03/20 15:22] Theresa Tennyson: Someone should report Ebbe to the CEO [2014/03/20 15:22] Simon Linden: or TP a bit .... any way works [2014/03/20 15:22] Whirly Fizzle: By lots, can we send really long messages really fast? [2014/03/20 15:22] Lucia Nightfire: or was f a good char? [2014/03/20 15:22] Anntoni: That'll be better [2014/03/20 15:22] Caleb Linden: lol (ebbe report to ceo) [2014/03/20 15:22] Lucia Nightfire: I forget which chars were the laggiest [2014/03/20 15:23] Simon Linden: long messages shouldn't make much of a difference - more messages is better than long ones [2014/03/20 15:23] Rex Cronon: too bad there is no lsl function to send messages to group chat:) [2014/03/20 15:24] Lucia Nightfire: oh yeah, the griffs are crying a river [2014/03/20 15:24] Simon Linden: I'm not seeing many people in those groups ... did you get invitations? [2014/03/20 15:24] Rex Cronon: come on. its a very useful testing tool:) [2014/03/20 15:24] Theresa Tennyson: I got them. [2014/03/20 15:24] Lucia Nightfire: reresh? [2014/03/20 15:24] Lucia Nightfire: *f [2014/03/20 15:24] Inara Breen: Yup... and accepted... [2014/03/20 15:25] Theresa Tennyson: It would be a tool to test my patience. And I'd FAIIL. [2014/03/20 15:25] Rex Cronon: too few of us here [2014/03/20 15:25] note Genesis: i ve got an invitation in one group and accepted it . Do we need two groups ? [2014/03/20 15:25] Simon Linden: I discovered there seems to be some bugs about getting you into chat right after joining [2014/03/20 15:26] Lucia Nightfire: gett the OP or the otehrs? [2014/03/20 15:26] Simon Linden: Two is better than one since the full system has to process many groups [2014/03/20 15:26] Whirly Fizzle: Yep. You have to open the chat yourself (or relog). Chat won't open for you if you joined that session [2014/03/20 15:26] Rex Cronon: i think somebody has to type something into group chat so other members can join? [2014/03/20 15:26] Caleb Linden: should we start? [2014/03/20 15:26] Simon Linden: right - open up the gruop yourself if you're not seeing messages yet [2014/03/20 15:27] Simon Linden: ok ... ready? [2014/03/20 15:27] Rex Cronon: ok. what were the group names? [2014/03/20 15:27] Simon Linden: Group Chat Chat [2014/03/20 15:27] Simon Linden: Group Chat Test [2014/03/20 15:27] Rex Cronon: ok [2014/03/20 15:27] Simon Linden: I'll re-send invitations [2014/03/20 15:27] Rex Cronon: sorry. i have few groups [2014/03/20 15:27] note Genesis: Give me "Group Chat Test" [2014/03/20 15:27] Rex Cronon: and i didn't realize which ones were the new ones. lol [2014/03/20 15:27] Whirly Fizzle: Should we just spam the chats now? [2014/03/20 15:28] note Genesis: ty [2014/03/20 15:28] Simon Linden: one sec ... if you just joined, please double-click on the group yourself otherwise you're not in the group chat session [2014/03/20 15:28] Nal (nalates.urriah): I can't open Chat CHat... [2014/03/20 15:28] Simon Linden: (that would be a good bug to fix) [2014/03/20 15:29] Nal (nalates.urriah): yeah... [2014/03/20 15:29] Rex Cronon: maybe we should shorter sentences to spam. lols [2014/03/20 15:29] Simon Linden: if you're stuck, relogging might help [2014/03/20 15:29] Simon Linden: ok - go wild, and in 5 minutes I'm going to throw a switch and get a 2nd part going [2014/03/20 15:30] Caleb Linden: ride like the wind [2014/03/20 15:30] Caleb Linden: shouts: ride like the wind [2014/03/20 15:30] Caleb Linden: shouts: v [2014/03/20 15:30] Caleb Linden: shouts: v [2014/03/20 15:30] Caleb Linden: ride like the wind [2014/03/20 15:30] Caleb Linden: ride like the wind [2014/03/20 15:30] Caleb Linden: shouts: ride like the wind [2014/03/20 15:30] Caleb Linden: shouts: v [2014/03/20 15:30] Caleb Linden: shouts: ride like the wind [2014/03/20 15:30] Caleb Linden: v [2014/03/20 15:30] Caleb Linden: ride like the wind [2014/03/20 15:30] Caleb Linden: ride like the wind [2014/03/20 15:30] Caleb Linden: ride like the wind [2014/03/20 15:30] Caleb Linden: ride like the wind [2014/03/20 15:39] Whirly Fizzle: lol [2014/03/20 15:39] Rex Cronon: do u want more testers? [2014/03/20 15:39] Simon Linden: you can stop now, thanks! [2014/03/20 15:40] Simon Linden: No, you can stop now :) [2014/03/20 15:40] Whirly Fizzle: Did anything smoke? [2014/03/20 15:40] Duckie Dickins: it mostly made my viewer freeze up from trying to log the chat spam. :P [2014/03/20 15:40] Caleb Linden: that was frantic [2014/03/20 15:40] Simon Linden: if you see lots of your own messages comign in late, let me know [2014/03/20 15:40] Whirly Fizzle: haha I turned logging off [2014/03/20 15:40] And all I got was this lousy DN (tankmaster.finesmith): tp bad i dont still have my hack from phoe that didnt limit the chat [2014/03/20 15:40] note Genesis: Problem is that lag chat is more in large groups than in small groups . with 20 people , it s rare to get some lag in production grid [2014/03/20 15:41] Anntoni: Not lots, but just very few of them came late [2014/03/20 15:41] Nal (nalates.urriah): No... seemed to work well... [2014/03/20 15:41] Anntoni: Not very noticable though. [2014/03/20 15:41] Whirly Fizzle: Yeah and disconnect every one Tank :P [2014/03/20 15:41] And all I got was this lousy DN (tankmaster.finesmith): i remember the last chat test we did, i loged people off do to their client not interacting with th server in time :P [2014/03/20 15:41] Anntoni: Yeah, looks like there isn't much lag [2014/03/20 15:42] Simon Linden: yes - it's really difficult to simulate the full load from the main grid [2014/03/20 15:42] Simon Linden: This is really a test that shows it doesn't fall over with minor load [2014/03/20 15:42] And all I got was this lousy DN (tankmaster.finesmith): will there be another test? [2014/03/20 15:42] Whirly Fizzle: Join Firestorm Support English if you want to repro bad chat lag on a daily basis :D [2014/03/20 15:43] Lucia Nightfire: beta chat and Mesh Volunteers is bad too [2014/03/20 15:43] Lucia Nightfire: FS beta chat [2014/03/20 15:43] Simon Linden: But Thank You, everyone - this was good. I've captured the logs and I can look later to make sure there weren't any surprises [2014/03/20 15:43] Duckie Dickins: yeah but tons of stuff work in beta and blow up on production. :P [2014/03/20 15:43] Nal (nalates.urriah): If you can connect to FS Support... [2014/03/20 15:43] Whirly Fizzle: haha thats true [2014/03/20 15:43] Nal (nalates.urriah): A really bad on is the SL Mesh Content group... [2014/03/20 15:44] Whirly Fizzle: Builders brewery is bad too [2014/03/20 15:44] And all I got was this lousy DN (tankmaster.finesmith): sl mesh has hardly any chat [2014/03/20 15:44] And all I got was this lousy DN (tankmaster.finesmith): comparied to fs support [2014/03/20 15:44] Theresa Tennyson: Do these changes to chat require any viewer or simulator work? [2014/03/20 15:44] Rex Cronon: i had to close viewer. was very laggy [2014/03/20 15:45] Nal (nalates.urriah): True, but Mesh Chat was so bad I dropped the group. I could never reply. [2014/03/20 15:45] Rex Cronon: too much incomming text [2014/03/20 15:45] Lucia Nightfire: Rex your connection is the weakest link [2014/03/20 15:45] Nal (nalates.urriah): At least with FS Support I eventually connect [2014/03/20 15:45] Simon Linden: No Theresa, this is all in the back-end chat servers [2014/03/20 15:46] Simon Linden: Basically I dug into the code and found some inefficient parts and cleaned them up. I also added more metrics, so I'm hoping it can show an improvement. I'm pretty sure it will be better, but it's really hard to guess how much better [2014/03/20 15:46] Rex Cronon: that is what i have lucia [2014/03/20 15:47] Rex Cronon: simon. next time u want a more realistic test give a few days warning. its very likley that with enough notice lots of people will gladly come to help test group chat:) [2014/03/20 15:48] Simon Linden: I'm hoping to test it on the main grid soon :) [2014/03/20 15:48] Whirly Fizzle: Just weith select groups or all groups? [2014/03/20 15:48] Whirly Fizzle: *with [2014/03/20 15:48] Lucia Nightfire: its not dependant on region channel is it? [2014/03/20 15:48] Lucia Nightfire: ie, it will be live everywhere in and out [2014/03/20 15:48] Lucia Nightfire: once rolled [2014/03/20 15:49] Lucia Nightfire: if rolled is even applicable [2014/03/20 15:49] Whirly Fizzle: I want to volunteer Firestorm support group. If it totally breaks at least we get a holiday \o/ [2014/03/20 15:49] Rex Cronon: imo i think testing it on main too early might be a little dangerous [2014/03/20 15:49] Whirly Fizzle: Dont tell Jess I said that Tank :P [2014/03/20 15:49] Simon Linden: It would get put on a server and then it would affect a fraction of the groups. I can pick one group to target and make sure it covers that group [2014/03/20 15:50] Nal (nalates.urriah): Dang... I just IM'd her... [2014/03/20 15:50] Lucia Nightfire: I'll be happy when I don't have to open a group chat with a single char [2014/03/20 15:50] Whirly Fizzle: hahaha [2014/03/20 15:50] note Genesis: And is it possible to create one thousand fake avatars in aditi and create a group with this ? I don t think they need to be logged. Sometimes lag exist in large groups even when there are few member onlines connected [2014/03/20 15:50] Whirly Fizzle: Nah, she would be cool with testing. Anything to help fix it [2014/03/20 15:50] Simon Linden: FS support might be a good one to try [2014/03/20 15:50] Simon Linden: obviously all owners would need to be ok with it [2014/03/20 15:51] Whirly Fizzle: Ill ask Ed/Jess [2014/03/20 15:51] Lucia Nightfire: Caleb, did you put that fix for BUG-5281 on a region on Aditi? [2014/03/20 15:52] Caleb Linden: on it :) [2014/03/20 15:52] Caleb Linden: i mean working. [2014/03/20 15:52] Lucia Nightfire: did you find a region with scripts enabled at the estate but with at least one parcel with them off publically? [2014/03/20 15:52] Nal (nalates.urriah): Simon, is this chat fix something that rolls out to region servers or only to backend servers? [2014/03/20 15:53] Whirly Fizzle: Ed said Yes :D [2014/03/20 15:53] Whirly Fizzle: As long as he gets a heads up when the switch happens so we can all see what happens [2014/03/20 15:54] Whirly Fizzle: Jess said yes [2014/03/20 15:54] note Genesis: oh .. we didn t test when the group chat is opening too .. I mean , for instance me , i had the two group chats already opened . And users don t join the group chat at the same time . [2014/03/20 15:54] Duckie Dickins: the problem though is if you fix group chat....people will want all of the other old bugs fixed too. [2014/03/20 15:54] Simon Linden: How about if I tell you afterwards when I throw the switch ... or at least which was the new or old part? [2014/03/20 15:54] Lucia Nightfire: placebo rolls [2014/03/20 15:54] Simon Linden: I don't want to bias any results [2014/03/20 15:55] Whirly Fizzle: ahh true [2014/03/20 15:55] Rex Cronon: come on simon. is not like u r looking to cure cancer:) [2014/03/20 15:55] Whirly Fizzle: Jess said can you tell her when it will happen and she promises not to tell anyone else [2014/03/20 15:56] Whirly Fizzle: Quote "And I won't report on results. I'll just watch unbias reaction and report that back to him." [2014/03/20 15:56] Lucia Nightfire: heh, it'll most likely happen before this weekend eitehr way, right? [2014/03/20 15:56] Lucia Nightfire: unless thats too soon [2014/03/20 15:57] Simon Linden: ok ... I'll be in touch as we move along. I have to look at today's logs and see if there's anything to fix, and we have to make sure QA is all happy with it going onto the main grid [2014/03/20 15:57] Simon Linden: It's likely to be next week [2014/03/20 15:57] Whirly Fizzle: She said you can email her at jessica.lyon@phoenixviewer.com [2014/03/20 15:57] Simon Linden: Great, thank you [2014/03/20 15:57] note Genesis: don t send her an email . open a coinf group chat [2014/03/20 15:58] note Genesis: conference [2014/03/20 15:58] Lucia Nightfire: so what otehr stuff is being looked at? any word on exp perms? [2014/03/20 15:58] Simon Linden: Sorry, no update there [2014/03/20 15:59] Lucia Nightfire: I want to test them, but they're nto active on agni [2014/03/20 15:59] Lucia Nightfire: at least teh events and constantsdon't do anything [2014/03/20 15:59] Whirly Fizzle: Linden realms has exp perms but I don't think you can do much with those [2014/03/20 16:01] Simon Linden: yes, it's not available yet [2014/03/20 16:01] Duckie Dickins: I think I've been to linden realms exactly once....are they still doing the linden realms thing? I heard a lot of areas were broken and what not so I never bothered looking very long [2014/03/20 16:01] Simon Linden: I have to go ... thank you everyone for the help today. It really does give us better info [2014/03/20 16:01] Caleb Linden: thanks simon [2014/03/20 16:01] Duckie Dickins: thanks for filling in today [2014/03/20 16:01] Nal (nalates.urriah): Thx Simon [2014/03/20 16:01] Whirly Fizzle: Ty Lindens [2014/03/20 16:02] Nal (nalates.urriah): Thx Lindens [2014/03/20 16:02] Yuzuru (yuzuru.jewell): Thank you, Simon and Caleb.
