aelkneri don't think eldar did much of that04:06
aelkneryou said you found a bug, right?04:07

aelknerfsufitch_, ccarey: how's it going?  could you give me some status of where you are?21:46
ccareyaelkner, i'm looking through the code relating to README.txt21:47
aelknerok, good21:47
aelknerafter that, take a look at the views for assigning comps to courses and/or sections21:48
aelknerand get with filip on what he knows so you can catch up with him21:48
aelknercan you guys try to arrange times to meet on-line and pair with each other?21:48
th1a_aelkner: I'm home.21:48
aelknerok, i'll call21:48
ccareysure21:49
ccareyfsufitch_: ping22:10
fsufitch_ccarey: pong22:13
ccareycould you give me a rundown of where we are and what you know?22:14
ccareyi need to catch up22:14
aelknerfsufitch_: ?22:20
aelknerfsufitch_: do you have anything more for ccarey than 'pong'?22:21
fsufitch_aelkner: sorry, i had to go to lunch right after i ponged22:36
aelkneri'm just trying to make sure you guys are getting together22:37
aelknerand try to discuss as much as possible here in the chat22:37
aelknerso that i can gauge how your progress is going22:37
fsufitch_so22:38
fsufitch_i've been gone all day22:38
fsufitch_so i'm pretty much where ccarey is22:38
fsufitch_i need to get to understand the views properly22:38
fsufitch_and get to work22:38
aelknertry to block out times where you can pair programm22:39
aelknerthat's important22:39
aelkneryou'll be sitting together at the sprint22:39
aelknerbut the sooner you get started doing that the better22:39
fsufitch_ccarey: so?22:40
aelkneri'm hoping the two of you can get the course and section assignment views working by week's end22:40
ccareyi should be available tmrw and friday22:40
ccareyin the afternoon22:40
ccareytmrw after noon, friday after 222:41
fsufitch_sweet22:41
aelkneri'll be unavailable on friday22:41
aelknerbut you two can make progress without me if you back each other up22:42
aelknerfsufitch_, ccarey: you'll need to come to an arrangement of how to pair remotely22:44
aelkneryou could use gobby22:44
fsufitch_i was about to say that22:44
aelknerdo you have what you need for that22:44
aelknera host22:44
fsufitch_one of us could host22:45
fsufitch_my comp will always be on22:45
fsufitch_wait, nvm22:45
fsufitch_i'm behind an evil firewall22:45
aelkneralan.elkner.net could host22:45
aelkneryou'd need an account22:45
fsufitch_okay22:45
aelkneryou already have one22:46
fsufitch_wait, i alreadt have one22:46
fsufitch_yup22:46
aelknertry starting one now22:46
aelknersobby that is22:46
aelknerremember to use & to make it not go away when you log out22:46
ccareyi have to install mine first22:47
aelkneryou had gobby last summer22:48
aelknerdid you change machines22:48
ccareyyes22:48
fsufitch_aelkner: does alan.elkner.net have Xorg?22:48
*** mgedmin has quit IRC22:48
fsufitch_so i could ssh -X?22:48
aelkneri don't know22:48
aelkneri'm guessing not22:48
aelknerbut you don't need that to start sobby22:49
aelknersobby is just a server22:49
fsufitch_oh ok22:49
*** alga has quit IRC22:49
aelknerfsufitch_: are you looking up how to start sobby?23:01
fsufitch_yeah23:03
aelkneri had that tucked away somewher i think23:03
aelknerlet me check23:03
aelknerccarey: do you remember how we start it23:05
ccareyno sry i don't23:06
ccareyi haven't worked with sobby23:06
ccareyjust gobby23:06
aelknerok, i tried just typing sobby23:06
aelknerand it worked23:06
fsufitch_wow o.O23:06
fsufitch_port #?23:07
aelknernow i'll restart it with &23:07
aelknerso it's running serving port 652223:07
aelknerso both of you open gobby and tell me when you can talk to each other23:07
fsufitch_okay23:07
fsufitch_aelkner: yup :)23:10
aelknerok, so a couple things23:10
aelkneryou know how to use pas -aef together with kill, right?23:11
aelknersorry, ps -aef23:11
fsufitch_no?23:11
fsufitch_i use ps aux23:11
fsufitch_wat's the diff?23:11
aelknerps -aef give you the running processes23:11
fsufitch_wat's aux do?23:12
aelknersame thing, only i don't like the output as much23:12
fsufitch_ah23:12
aelknerit doesn't give the parent PID for one thing23:12
aelknergo to my server and run ps -aef23:12
aelknerlet's look at it together23:13
fsufitch_k23:13
aelkneryou see the columns UID PID PPID and at the end CMD23:13
aelknerthose are the only important ones23:14
fsufitch_mmhm23:14
fsufitch_kill PID rite?23:14
fsufitch_i know how to use kill23:14
aelknerthat's right, not the PPID23:14
aelknerthat's the parent process which can be helpful in understanding how a process got started23:15
fsufitch_mmhm23:15
aelknertry killing sobby23:15
aelkneri know it won't work but i want you to try23:15
fsufitch_yea, operation not permitted23:15
aelknerright, that's because i own it23:16
aelkneri will kill it23:16
aelknernow you start it, using sobby &23:16
fsufitch_mmhm23:16
aelkneri see you started it23:17
aelknerwhat port did it tell you23:17
aelknerbtw hit enter and you see that you get the prompt back23:17
fsufitch_652223:17
aelknercool23:17
aelknerverify that you and chris can see each other in gobby23:17
fsufitch_okay23:18
fsufitch_aelkner: an alternative to the kill is using the killall command fyi23:20
fsufitch_"killall sobby"23:20
aelknerthat one would scare me that i might kill too much23:20
aelkneri prefer to be very careful and ps -aef and kill one at a time23:21
aelknerso do you two see each other in gobby23:21
fsufitch_yup23:22
ccareyyes23:22
aelknerso one of you needs to be the one that saves gobby files locally23:22
aelknerand svn ci23:22
aelknerthe other can use svn up23:22
aelknerthis way you don't get confused who di what to svn23:23
aelknergranted, one can always recover23:23
fsufitch_yeah23:23
aelknerbut simplifying your interaction will save you time23:23
aelkneryou're both gong to have the same capability to save locally and test23:23
aelknerso may i recommend you start by opening up the files of interest, starting with the README23:24
aelknerand discussing23:24
aelknereventually, you can get to the views and start changing things23:24
ccareysounds good23:25
fsufitch_that works23:25
aelknercool23:25
aelknerbtw, no conference call today23:25
aelkneri was mistaken23:25
ccareyok i was wondering about that23:25
fsufitch_ookay23:25
aelkneryou two know what to do now23:25
fsufitch_yup23:25
aelknerif you get done both course and section assignment before friday is done23:26
aelknerwhich i wouldn't expect, but then again it could turn out to be simpler than expected23:26
aelknerin that case, you could just work on banging the heck out of it looking for cracks23:27
aelknerand writing functional tests that try to expose cracks23:27
aelkneri suggest you don't even think about skilldrivers until monday23:27
aelknerbest of luck for the rest of the week!23:28
fsufitch_aelkner: ping23:40
fsufitch_you still there?23:40
aelkneryes23:40
fsufitch_it appears that the assign/remove competencies from courses isn't ftested at all23:41
aelknerdoesn't surprise me23:41
fsufitch_so do we write ftests for it completely?23:41
aelknerthat will your first task23:41
aelkneryes23:41
fsufitch_that works :)23:41
