th1areplaceafill:  How you doing?18:52
replaceafillth1a, i asked trevor for screenshots of the forms he's referring to in his comments18:54
replaceafillmeanwhile i'm working in the gradebook again18:54
th1aSo... still can't figure out where this is coming from in the source?18:54
replaceafilli also thought of doing what yvl did this morning, asking him for the code18:55
th1aBut couldn't it be older code...18:55
th1aHm...18:55
replaceafillth1a, i think it's FROM older code18:55
th1aI'm not sure to what extent it is possible to have older data lying around without throwing errors.18:55
replaceafilli've seen demo fields in old code, but not in the one trevor says is using18:57
th1aWell... right.18:57
th1aI mean, they probably originated when they used the older version.18:57
th1aRight?18:57
replaceafillthat's what i think18:57
th1aSo don't we think we could extract it just knowing that?18:58
th1aI mean, can you find the older code?18:58
replaceafillthe thing is that i found several versions of different schoolbell code18:59
replaceafillschoolbell-1.0/18:59
replaceafillschoolbell-1.0rc1/18:59
replaceafillschoolbell-1.0rc2/18:59
replaceafillschoolbell-1.1/18:59
replaceafillschoolbell-1.1.1/18:59
replaceafillschoolbell-1.1rc1/18:59
th1aDo we just need access to the database?18:59
replaceafillschoolbell-1.2.0/18:59
replaceafillschoolbell-1.2.1/18:59
replaceafillschoolbell-1.2.2/19:00
th1aI mean, should we stop farting around?19:00
replaceafillschoolbell-1.2.3/19:00
replaceafillschoolbell-1.2.4/19:00
replaceafillschoolbell-1.2rc1/19:00
replaceafillschoolbell-1.2rc2/19:00
replaceafillschoolbell-1.2rc3/19:00
th1aCan't we just write a script that'll dump out the objects connected to a person?19:00
replaceafilli did one to at least know the annotations involved19:00
th1aOr, for that matter, shouldn't we be able to figure this out with the introspector?19:00
th1aDevmode!19:00
replaceafill:O19:01
replaceafillth1a, "The live schooltool data base is on a Linux Server - Fedora Core Release 4, Kernell 2.6.11"19:20

replaceafillwonder if the customization he talks about are real19:20
replaceafillah19:20
th1aWe did have photos.19:21
th1aAnd we did have birthdays.19:21
th1aI'm kind of puzzled that we ever didn't have birthdays.19:21
replaceafillif we got to the rpms maybe we can see the code19:21
replaceafilledubuntu 6 doesnt have them19:21
th1aHm.19:21
replaceafillneither edubuntu 519:21
replaceafillschooltool-0.11.4 and schooltool-0.11.219:22

replaceafillsorry :(19:33
th1aHm.19:36
th1aWhat if we don't call it birthday?19:36
th1aI think we just need a script that spits out whatever is connected to a person in his database.19:36
replaceafillunfortunately, it seems like Trevor is going out for a week19:38
replaceafillwe wont be able to ask him to test stuff19:38
replaceafilllike if we send him the script19:39
th1aI guess that also means there is no rush.19:39
replaceafillright19:39
replaceafillit's mostly about curiousity at this point :P19:39
replaceafill(at least for me ;D)19:39
th1aWell, it is also good for us just to be in the habit of actually solving customer problems.19:40
replaceafill:)19:40
