[15:03] Oskar Linden: and I have a circuit bending class tonight that I am excited about
[15:03] Coyot Linden: hi Psi
[15:03] Gooden Uggla: oohhh that sounds fun
[15:03] TankMaster Finesmith: howdy maestro, long time no see :P

[15:03] Fancy Linden: Greeter: Log Linden has arrived
[15:03] Oskar Linden: yeah I bought a little electronic piano for $2 and I'm gonna go solder on some stuff to tweak the sounds
[15:03] Fancy Linden: Greeter: Maestro Linden has arrived
[15:03] Gooden Uggla: hiya maestro
[15:04] Marigold Devin: sweet
[15:04] Oskar Linden: oh we have a linden greeter now huh?
[15:04] Lares Carter: hi Maestro :)
[15:04] Maestro Linden: hey guys
[15:04] Marigold Devin: solder
[15:04] Flip Idlemind: Fancy Linden Greeter*
[15:04] Psi Merlin: Hey Maestro
[15:04] Oskar Linden: alright. let's get this show on the road
[15:04] Oskar Linden: https://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Server_Beta_User_Group
[15:04] Gooden Uggla: lol now they can't sneak up on us
[15:04] Oskar Linden: today the lab is having a hack-a-thon
[15:05] Draconis Neurocam: i hope it goes well
[15:05] Oskar Linden: lots of devs and qa are hammering on some new vwr build and automation stuff
[15:05] Marigold Devin: ohgod I'm wearing loads of scripts
[15:05] Oskar Linden: everyday is hack-a-thon for me
[15:05] Oskar Linden: so I made it a dev-a-thon and pretended I was simon or monty and started touching server code
[15:05] RedMokum Bravin: Hey, Oz tried to make it sound special!
[15:05] Latif Khalifa: lol
[15:06] Latif Khalifa: touching code is not for the uninitiated
[15:06] Oskar Linden: :-)
[15:06] RedMokum Bravin: Did the code survive?
[15:06] Oskar Linden: ok ok latif
[15:06] Jonathan Yap: Are we getting svc-1167 from you Oskar?
[15:06] JIRA-helper: http//jira.secondlife.com/browse/SVC-1167:
[#SVC-1167] Script function: to return objects
[15:06] Master Starship: well as long as you only make it better
[15:06] Oskar LindenOskar: Linden sets group limits back to 42 from 100
[15:06] Master Starship: or change a varable from 40 to 42
[15:06] Oskar Linden: let's talk about releases this week
[15:07] Latif Khalifa: having more groups would've been fun... in 2008 :P
[15:07] Ima Mechanique: providing you don't touch it in inappropriate ways and never ask the code to keep it a secret
[15:07] Oskar Linden: the long awaited Display Name changes made it live on Tuesday
[15:07] TankMaster Finesmith: what changed?
[15:07] Oskar Linden: there were quite a few fixes and changes in there
[15:07] RedMokum Bravin: Not seen ??? lately.
[15:07] Oskar Linden: oh my link broke...
[15:07] Oskar Linden: hmm
[15:08] Oskar Linden: [1]
[15:08] Oskar Linden: * Modify simulator top scripts report to include agent IDs instead of usernames.
* Messages sent to estate by user with last name resident are seen as forged by simulator
* llGetDisplayName failed intermittently
* Offline group invite email contains Username only and contains Resident last name in body of message
* llGetDisplayName returns nothing if the resident has not chosen a new name (shouldn't it return at least the legacy name, like the viewer is showing for their name?)
* Last name resident shown in title of IM Conference Window with no Display name
* metadata embedded in postcards: shows username="Firstname Lastname" instead of "firstname.lastname"
* Confirm LSL functions tooltips have current valid descriptions
[15:08] Oskar Linden: not sure if anyone has gotten the chance to notice if the DN code is working any better but it should be
[15:08] Oskar Linden: I've not seen any major complaints
[15:08] Oskar Linden: or if I did they were from a user using unpronounceable unicode
[15:09] RedMokum Bravin: :-p
[15:09] Latif Khalifa: i've turned it off, people abuse it making it difficult to read chat ;)
[15:09] Coyot LindenCoyot: Linden has discovered that the DN code will not let him set his DN to ???
[15:09] Oskar Linden: I know :-)
[15:09] Gooden Uggla: do bans work now?
[15:09] Oskar Linden: sure you can coyot. let me show you later ;-)
[15:10] Coyot Linden: k
[15:10] RedMokum Bravin: Oskar will teach you how to use upside-down question marks no doubt.
[15:10] TankMaster Finesmith: set it on the backend server side :P
[15:10] Oskar Linden: are you jumping topics gooden? :-)
[15:10] Oskar Linden: I do everything on the backend
[15:10] Gooden Uggla: oops, my bad
[15:10] TankMaster Finesmith: lol
[15:10] Oskar Linden: uhm
[15:10] Oskar Linden: yeah
[15:10] Oskar Linden: ok
[15:10] Latif Khalifa: can you set display name to '; drop table users;
[15:10] Oskar Linden: heh
[15:10] Oskar Linden: little bobby drop tables
[15:11] Opensource Obscure: ^^
[15:11] TankMaster Finesmith: >,<
[15:11] Oskar Linden: what would the internet be without obscure memes
[15:11] Master Starship: error table users not found
[15:11] Oskar Linden: it's like one big inside joek
[15:11] TankMaster Finesmith: useing > will cause you to termonate yout XMPP session in group chat...
[15:11] Latif Khalifa: [2]
[15:12] Oskar Linden: I remember when I came back from a long motorcycle ride through australia where I had limited internet access for half a year and I didn't get any jokes
[15:12] Latif Khalifa: lol
[15:12] Oskar Linden: my friends were like talking in code I didn't know
[15:12] Oskar Linden: it moves that fast
[15:12] Oskar Linden: anyways
[15:12] Oskar Linden: maint-server got merged witht he DN code
[15:13] Oskar Linden: deployed to magnum and will get promoted next week
[15:13] Oskar Linden: it's been a very patient little branch
[15:13] Coyot Linden: promoted if all goes well
[15:13] Latif Khalifa: whom do we bribe to get step 1 and 2 of mono upgrade fast throgh?
[15:13] Latif Khalifa: maestro?
[15:13] Oskar Linden: speaking of coyot we should convene in email Monday night to see if we should do the roll Tuesday morning since Monday is a holiday
[15:14] Coyot Linden: Governor Lindeon
[15:14] Oskar Linden: kelly
[15:14] Oskar Linden: all moneys go to kelly
[15:14] Jonathan Yap: LL holiday on MOnday?
[15:14] Maestro Linden: actually step 1 is already in RC :)
[15:14] Oskar Linden: yes
[15:14] Oskar Linden: speaking of step 1
[15:14] Latif Khalifa: kelly says his work is done, it's up to qa now hof fast it gets tehre
[15:14] Coyot Linden: oskar - Lil and I to convo on that Friday night
[15:14] Oskar Linden: LeTigre has mono2-aware
[15:15] Oskar Linden: maestro can you give a rundown on mono2-aware?
[15:15] Maestro Linden: sure,
[15:15] Carbon Rod,: X-Flight: All Go
[15:15] Maestro Linden: so mono2-aware only has minor performance improvements compared to previous server versions
[15:15] Latif Khalifa: "don't crash when you see serialization of the real mono2 update"
[15:15] Maestro Linden: but we have a 2nd branch, Mono2Performance, which dose have a lot of performance optimizations
[15:16] Gooden Uggla: after 2+ years it's finally happening :)
[15:16] Maestro Linden: mono2performance scripts will crash if they're rezzed in older servers
[15:16] Maestro Linden: but mono2aware can deal wtih mono2performance scripts
[15:16] Latif Khalifa: yeah mono2-aware is only crash proofing existing engine for the real update
[15:17] Maestro Linden: so once mono2aware is out on all channels, we'll be able to try out mono2performance on certain channels
[15:17] Oskar Linden: see! we made a plan
[15:17] Oskar Linden: and thought ahead
[15:17] Oskar Linden: aren't you proud?
[15:17] Draconis Neurocam: very
[15:17] Latif Khalifa: it's an exception that proves the rule :P
[15:17] Gooden Uggla: you have no idea
[15:17] Homeless: we're: proud!!
[15:17] Jonathan Yap: Does that mean there will be another checkbox for LSL compiling types?
[15:17] Draconis Neurocam: mono upgrades, msvc 2010 upgrades, xmpp, its crazy, things are actually getting done
[15:18] Oskar Linden: so you'll hear more here abot when the next mono2 phase is ready
[15:18] Maestro Linden: Jonathan: nope, it's still just LSL or Mono
[15:18] Oskar Linden: things are moving so fast it's hard to keep track of it all
[15:18] Master Starship: much better than the last one
[15:18] Oskar Linden: even in the last 6 months
[15:18] Jonathan Yap: So new compiles will be into Mono2
[15:18] TankMaster Finesmith:
[15:18] Oskar Linden: the idea that we basically ship 4 new versions of server code weekly kinda boggle the mind
[15:18] Latif Khalifa: kcp ftw
[15:19] Master Starship: and in parrall not seral
[15:19] Gooden Uggla: has someone chained Kelly to his desk yet?
[15:19] Oskar Linden: moving on, BlueSteel got some improvements to the IP management tools that had been crashing sims
[15:19] Oskar Linden: they seem to be less crashy
[15:19] Oskar Linden: probably let that sit for a couple more weeks
[15:19] TankMaster Finesmith: less crashy is a good thing
[15:19] Latif Khalifa: did you add "undo" button for when governene damages half of the grid by mitake?
[15:20] Latif Khalifa: governence
[15:20] Oskar Linden: I wish
[15:20] Oskar Linden: a big old CONTROL-Z in our tools panel
[15:20] Master Starship: why did they not jsut change the asset instead of removing it
[15:20] Latif Khalifa: would be useful
[15:20] Coyot Linden: assets are immutable
[15:20] Oskar Linden: I don't know
[15:21] Oskar Linden: it wasn't an intentional error
[15:21] Oskar Linden: if that makes you feel better
[15:21] Master Starship: then how dothey change them for IP items
[15:21] Jonathan Yap: Is any error intentional? :)
[15:21] Oskar Linden: the details on the IP management tools are a big secret
[15:21] Gooden Uggla: they substitute a placeholder item for the object, the UUID is immutable
[15:22] Oskar Linden: I didn't have any firstborns to offer so they won't tell me
[15:22] Coyot Linden: The TCP management, not so much
[15:22] Oskar Linden: some people believe that all our errors are intentional and part of some devious master plabn
[15:22] Draconis Neurocam: the amount of uuids in sl has to be a better test for the standard than anyone ever thought of before
[15:22] Oskar Linden: I only wish that were true
[15:23] Oskar Linden: then there are others who will say that I can't talk about the master plan and this is just a diversion
[15:23] Homeless: isn't: the plan to take over the world?
[15:23] Oskar Linden: it gets deeper
[15:23] Gooden Uggla: we don't believe that oskar, we believe the top floor just smokes too much weed
[15:23] Latif Khalifa: "Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity" <- Heinlein's Razor
[15:23] Coyot Linden: Bob would love you for that.
[15:24] Oskar Linden: :-)
[15:24] Homeless: and: turn everyone into bots?
[15:24] Oskar Linden: we have open office floorplans so whatever anyone is smoking the rest get it too
[15:24] Coyot Linden: No, that's more Asimov than Heinlein
[15:24] Gooden Uggla: wow, someone referred to bob the prim?
[15:24] Coyot Linden: No, Bob Heinlein
[15:24] Marigold DevinMarigold: Devin mutters conspiracy theories, weed, bots grrr
[15:24] Gooden Uggla: coyot is going to get huge love in comic form
[15:25] Oskar Linden: Coyot is on nicknames basis with Mr Heinlein
[15:25] Gooden Uggla: or not...
[15:25] Oskar Linden: I call him Robby H
[15:25] Latif Khalifa: lol
[15:25] Oskar Linden: speaking of AWG conspiracy theories we are upgrading our blogs/forums
[15:25] Oskar Linden: to a Lithuium offering
[15:26] Oskar Linden: info here: [3]
[15:26] Oskar Linden: there will be some downtime
[15:26] Draconis Neurocam: anything has to be better than jive
[15:26] Marigold Devin: Ohgod people are going to die without theh forums for 10 whole days !!!! have you read the reactions there already?
[15:26] Gooden Uggla: not that it's admitting the lab made a mistake or anything...
[15:26] Oskar Linden: the good news is that it will make next weeks release very very quiet in the forums
[15:26] Homeless: Just: don't put Lithium in the water
[15:26] Gooden Uggla: lol that would solve the problem of having bitchy users
[15:26] Coyot Linden: You see, they aren't on weed - it's lithium
[15:27] Flip Idlemind: Yes people with die without the forums. Where else will people talk to eachother? o.O
[15:27] Latif Khalifa: It's not a AWG conspiracy theory, just constatation that LL has severe case of Facebook envy which is couterproductive to SL's success
[15:27] Oskar Linden: I toyed with a few ideas of a replacement
[15:27] Oskar Linden: I wanted a webcam pointing to my whiteboard
[15:27] Gooden Uggla: oh?
[15:27] Oskar Linden: where I would write updates
[15:27] Gooden Uggla: that's a good idea, could be fun
[15:27] Oskar Linden: you know what... I'm going to do that anyways
[15:27] Gooden Uggla: ~^.^~"Hey, This promises to Be Fun!"~^.^~
[15:27] Oskar Linden: I'll just upload pics
[15:27] Draconis Neurocam: time lapse
[15:28] Homeless: draw: plenty of cartoons
[15:28] Oskar Linden: I will
[15:28] Oskar Linden: this will be the link: https://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Server_Release_Status_Whiteboard
[15:28] Draconis Neurocam: haha
[15:29] Oskar Linden: pass that link around when people want to know what is going on with server
[15:29] Oskar Linden: we've got some progress made on the XMPP front.
[15:30] Oskar Linden: we've got some project vwr code talking to our XMPP servers here on ADITI
[15:30] Oskar Linden: it's actually working
[15:30] Oskar Linden: more info on that when project vwrs are publicly available
[15:30] Oskar LindenOskar: Linden looks forward to new group chat bugs!
[15:30] TankMaster FinesmithTankMaster: Finesmith is on the xmpp vwr
[15:30] Oskar Linden: nice
[15:30] Latif Khalifa: we found many already
[15:30] Oskar Linden: :-)
[15:31] TankMaster Finesmith: yeah, i found one bug alreadu
[15:31] TankMaster Finesmith: > kills the chat session
[15:31] Oskar Linden: let's give tank and latif a round of applause for finding early bugs
[15:31] TankMaster Finesmith:
[15:31] TankMaster Finesmith: gez knows of it now
[15:31] Psi Merlin: Make a whiteboard here and put the link on it.
[15:31] Ima Mechanique: I only found out how to crash myself out of the viewer :-(
[15:31] Oskar Linden: now when it goes live if there are any issues with group chat poke them
[15:32] Latif Khalifa: only for the bugs we didn't find ;)
[15:32] Oskar Linden: when it comes to rollout we'll most likely have a time when new and old chat services are both available on the grid
[15:32] Latif Khalifa: but it smells very alpha, i wouldn't expect xmpp chat to go live any time soon
[15:32] Oskar Linden: so if you feel the need for laggy chat just fire up an old group chat
[15:32] TankMaster Finesmith: or use 1.23
[15:33] Latif Khalifa: xmpp chat is pretty laggy the way it's implemented
[15:33] Homeless: the: lag adds a certain anticipation
[15:33] Oskar Linden: good to know
[15:33] Oskar Linden: 1
[15:33] Oskar Linden: 2
[15:33] Oskar Linden: 6
[15:33] Oskar Linden: 5
[15:33] Latif Khalifa: 5-10s freeze when a new participant logs in
[15:33] TankMaster Finesmith: local doesnt use xmpp...
[15:34] Oskar Linden: log is still working on the download queue enhancements in the asset server code
[15:34] Oskar Linden: we had xan run some stats to figure out which regions had the longest download queues
[15:34] Zindonas Loxingly: is that delay an issue with xmpp or a network issue?
[15:34] Oskar Linden: then I contacted those sim owners and asked if they wanted to help by letting us use their sims on aditi with some new code
[15:34] Oskar Linden: they were very excited :-D
[15:35] TankMaster Finesmith:
[15:35] Oskar Linden: we might doa pileon in those regions in the coming weeks
[15:35] Jonathan Yap: loads of textures?
[15:35] Oskar Linden: 3 of the top 10 were mainland regions
[15:35] Oskar Linden: not textures
[15:35] Motor Loon: what would cause it then?
[15:35] Latif Khalifa: Zindonas, xmpp server calling a web service to check if you are allowed to join. It's done sync (everything freezes until web service responds). It needs to be rewriten in async mode.
[15:35] Oskar Linden: sounds is an example
[15:36] Log Linden: there's another bottleneck on textures
[15:36] Log Linden: that's for a future project
[15:36] Log Linden: this needed to happen first
[15:36] Draconis Neurocam: i wonder if thats related to the issue where viewer 2 sends mediadataclientrequests like mad, and if the stats will change when they fix it
[15:37] Oskar Linden: anything else new and upcoming maestro?
[15:37] Maestro Linden: we're working on those recent attachment bugs
[15:38] Oskar Linden: oh right
[15:38] Maestro Linden: SVC-6766 / SVC-6769
[15:38] JIRA-helper: http//jira.secondlife.com/browse/SVC-6766:
[#SVC-6766] Since Feb: 8th Server Rollout to main simulator isn't reliably sending inventory item UUID for attachments
[15:38] JIRA-helper: http//jira.secondlife.com/browse/SVC-6769:
[#SVC-6769] Taking off: part or all of a clothing/attachment set and then wearing another item often causes the the removed item(s) to reapear
[15:38] Oskar Linden: yeah I had those in any other business
[15:38] Maestro Linden: hm let's see
[15:38] Oskar Linden: nice long talk about those at andrews server usergroup
[15:38] Maestro Linden: next week, we're planning to have another new RC
[15:38] Bronson Blackadder: I seen this
[15:38] Flip Idlemind: Ferrari?
[15:38] Maestro Linden: to address cumulative lag that pops up on some regions which is related to derezzing objects
[15:39] Oskar Linden: I wish. legal said I can't name an RC after Ferrari
[15:39] Maestro Linden: I mean, another new server build on one of the existing RC channels :)
[15:39] Flip Idlemind: Ah okie dokie
[15:39] Homeless: you: could call it Homeless lol
[15:39] Flip Idlemind: Would have been cool. 5 server versions a week :O
[15:40] Oskar Linden: 5 server versions a week would be nuts
[15:40] Oskar Linden: Coyot? how about it?
[15:40] TankMaster Finesmith: ^
[15:40] Oskar Linden: you up for tracking 5 diff branches per week?
[15:40] Oskar Linden: you could handle it
[15:40] Draconis Neurocam: would form a pentagram and then all the conspiracy theorists would go nuts
[15:41] Oskar Linden: he's been doing server releases for like a whole week now
[15:41] Marigold DevinMarigold: Devin cues Aerosmith Livin on the Edge
[15:41] Oskar Linden: right now it's a pyramid
[15:41] Oskar Linden: traingular based pyramid?
[15:41] Maestro Linden: by the way Jonathan, you won't need to recompile Mono scripts in Mono2performance to make them run faster - they'll automatically run with the optimizations when they're rezzed
[15:41] Oskar Linden: isn't that intimidating?
[15:41] Jonathan Yap: sweet Maestro
[15:41] Oskar Linden: that is cool
[15:42] Bronson Blackadder: pyramids hmm yes Freemasons
[15:42] Bronson Blackadder: the all seeing Linden and all that
[15:42] Oskar Linden: with kelly's eye in the center
[15:42] arton Rotaru: so we have to rerez all scripted objects to benefit from the update?
[15:42] Coyot LindenCoyot: Linden is not committing to five RCs
[15:43] Maestro Linden: nope
[15:43] Gooden Uggla: the "all-scripted eye"
[15:43] Maestro Linden: just rez them when you want to run them, no preliminary rez required
[15:43] Oskar Linden: in my Interesting Stuff topic on the agenda I put some links to interviews with Rodvik Linden our new CEO
[15:43] arton Rotaru: yeah, but with objects rezzed like houses
[15:43] Oskar Linden: you guys might find those interesting
[15:43] Oskar Linden: I've not watched them all
[15:44] Lares Carter: i saw, thanks for the links, oskar
[15:44] Master Starship: will it deoptimize any of our scripts?
[15:45] Oskar Linden: I'm about done for topics. we can freeform the rest of this meeting
[15:45] Maestro Linden: I don't think so
[15:45] Oskar Linden: maestro will answer any and all personal questions
[15:45] Latif Khalifa: don't read nwn one. hamlet is a pihhead
[15:45] Draconis Neurocam: haha
[15:45] Latif Khalifa: he wants to turn sl into 2.5D "tap to move there!" farmville clone
[15:45] Homeless: I: have a visitor counter that is always running, would I have to reset it or re-rez it?
[15:46] Oskar Linden: good question
[15:46] Maestro Linden: no, you wouldn't have to re-rez it
[15:46] Bronson Blackadder: tap to move there looked like crap on Blue Mars
[15:46] arton Rotaru: ok, thats what I wanted to know
[15:46] Master Starship: also does it optimize time or mem usage?
[15:46] Homeless: just: leave it go and the update is automatic?
[15:46] Maestro Linden: it would be all ready when the sim starts up in mono2performance
[15:46] Jonathan Yap: It will get upgraded when the server is updated?

[15:50] Flip Idlemind: So I've got something odd: Ya know that parallelogram-ish shape that mesh objects show up as if you're not on a mesh viewer?
[15:50] Latif Khalifa: the pyramid
[15:50] Latif Khalifa: orangle/yellow thing
[15:51] Latif Khalifa: ah
[15:51] Latif Khalifa: Flip, now I understand
[15:51] Latif Khalifa: yeah
[15:51] Motor Loon: what about it Flip?
[15:51] Flip Idlemind: Idk if it's a server thing or a Phoenix thing (I'm on Phoenix) but if I go to Ahern (the sim to the north) most of the prims change to look like that
[15:52] Bronson Blackadder: Freemasons I tell you
[15:52] Oskar Linden: ahern is not on mesh code
[15:52] Maestro Linden: the Ahern prims look normal to me from here
[15:52] Bronson Blackadder: it's freemasons
[15:52] Flip Idlemind: Including things attached to be, but it's only if I cross into Ahern
[15:52] Latif Khalifa: to meetoo
[15:52] Motor Loon: me too
[15:52] Flip Idlemind: attached to me*

[#SVC-5959] Groups notices: sent to email do not identify sender
[15:54] Gooden Uggla: is it going to a channel anytime soon?
[15:54] Jonathan Yap: Is that a pretty simple fix?
[15:54] Motor Loon: oh yeah, thats an annoying one
[15:54] Latif Khalifa: if it gets past 2 server releases it fails "was this broken in our last release" test, and never gets fixed after that ;)
[15:55] Maestro Linden: there's a fix for the bug, Gooden
[15:55] Gooden Uggla: excellent
[15:55] Gooden Uggla: any plans to implement the fix?
[15:55] Latif Khalifa: like inventory accepted notification
[15:55] Motor LoonMotor: Loon grins
[15:55] Oskar Linden: that's a sad reality sometimes latif
[15:55] Maestro Linden: it'll probably come to an RC channel in a few weeks, as part of some maint-server type of update (many small bugfixes)
[15:55] Fancy Linden: Greeter: Gez Linden has arrived

[16:00] Gez Linden: I'm working on getting up a project for the xmpp viewer in the next day or so. hackathon is taking precedence currently, but we'll get something up there for you.
[16:00] Maestro Linden: I found that I can trigger the "can't attach item twice" error message when I wear a bunch of attachmetns and login wtih my viewer bandwidth set to 100kbps
[16:00] Master Starship: having them relog
[16:00] Maestro Linden: but that didnt' actually show my attachments detached in inventory..
[16:01] Flip Idlemind: Would anyone care to take a quick flight into Ahern to see if any prims start looking strange

[16:06] Latif Khalifa: hhahaha

[16:07] Gez Linden: very much in alpha, so we're looking for lots of feedback
[16:07] Gez Linden: other than that... think you covered the juicy bits oskar
[16:07] Oskar LindenOskar: Linden imagines code becoming more opaque the less alpha there is :-p
[16:07] TankMaster Finesmith: so gez, youll have your own user group for a while?
[16:07] Flip Idlemind: In that case someone's griefing Ahern
[16:07] Gez Linden: aye, but we'll be attending this one, the open source one, and our own
