2011-08-16 12:05:44+0000 <antoviaque> yep would be good - do you have this bug 
too?
2011-08-16 12:05:57+0000 <antoviaque> mtyaka: ^
2011-08-16 12:05:57+0000 <arbrandes> I can't reproduce it, was going to ask 
about it
2011-08-16 12:06:06+0000 <mtyaka> ah... ok
2011-08-16 12:06:09+0000 <mtyaka> i didn't try it myself
2011-08-16 12:06:10+0000 <mtyaka> moment
2011-08-16 12:06:32+0000 <antoviaque> could be something funky on my install 
2011-08-16 12:07:24+0000 lincoln (lincoln) is now online
2011-08-16 12:07:25+0000 <antoviaque> tartarugafeliz: cool - I will start using 
your video to create the new stories for player views btw
2011-08-16 12:07:29+0000 <antoviaque> hi lincoln!
2011-08-16 12:07:38+0000 <lincoln> hello there! :)
2011-08-16 12:07:42+0000 <antoviaque> heya : )
2011-08-16 12:07:57+0000 <antoviaque> lincoln: just a few minutes - finishing a 
meeting : )
2011-08-16 12:08:05+0000 <lincoln> ok
2011-08-16 12:08:39+0000 <antoviaque> mtyaka: so #339 if it's a real bug, and 
if not we look at a task for you ok?
2011-08-16 12:08:43+0000 <mtyaka> hmm.... i actually get an "Internal server 
error" when moving from step 2 to step 3
2011-08-16 12:08:51+0000 <antoviaque> : )
2011-08-16 12:08:58+0000 <mtyaka> antoviaque: ok
2011-08-16 12:09:09+0000 <antoviaque> Btw dachary won't be able to join in for 
the next sprint, so in the next meeting we should keep planning thing out 
without him - actually he is going to come tomorrow to discuss his situation, 
I'll let him explain
2011-08-16 12:09:11+0000 <arbrandes> mtyaka, me too
2011-08-16 12:09:37+0000 <arbrandes> antoviaque, roger that
2011-08-16 12:09:44+0000 <mtyaka> arbrandes: ah, i see...
2011-08-16 12:09:56+0000 <mtyaka> dachary changed the database schema
2011-08-16 12:10:00+0000 <arbrandes> mtyaka, this is probably new
2011-08-16 12:10:12+0000 <antoviaque> the good part is that it frees some 
budget to extend the deadline on the completion of the board interface - we 
should thus be able to push it back by 1-2 weeks
2011-08-16 12:10:18+0000 <mtyaka> no such column: serial
2011-08-16 12:10:34+0000 <arbrandes> antoviaque, bitter-sweet news, then :)
2011-08-16 12:10:37+0000 <antoviaque> basically to compensate for the missing 
work force 
2011-08-16 12:10:39+0000 <antoviaque> yep : )
2011-08-16 12:10:42+0000 <blanchard1> :)
2011-08-16 12:11:00+0000 <antoviaque> so I think we can say that we have two 
2-weeks sprints ahead of us
2011-08-16 12:11:26+0000 <antoviaque> *but* I need to check today the critical 
path 
2011-08-16 12:11:32+0000 <arbrandes> definitely
2011-08-16 12:11:45+0000 <antoviaque> maybe cutting if/where we can
2011-08-16 12:11:54+0000 <antoviaque> but also planning for the bit of polish
2011-08-16 12:12:16+0000 <antoviaque> so well, it's not much time in any case
2011-08-16 12:12:32+0000 <arbrandes> Suggestion: we might want to have four 
1-week sprints instead of two 2-week ones.
2011-08-16 12:12:45+0000 <antoviaque> good idea 
2011-08-16 12:12:58+0000 <antoviaque> it would also reduce the overhead between 
each sprint
2011-08-16 12:13:00+0000 <arbrandes> this give us better course-correction 
flexibility
2011-08-16 12:13:03+0000 <antoviaque> yup
2011-08-16 12:13:23+0000 <arbrandes> yes, less overhead betweens sprints, but 
more overhead total
2011-08-16 12:13:42+0000 <antoviaque> understood
2011-08-16 12:13:43+0000 <arbrandes> But imho, worth it in our situation
2011-08-16 12:14:00+0000 <antoviaque> ok - what about the sprint meeting?
2011-08-16 12:14:28+0000 <arbrandes> antoviaque, I see you got a chance to do 
some review, and found some bugs
2011-08-16 12:14:31+0000 <antoviaque> I've started cleaning things up with the 
tracker and prepared the next version/sprint
2011-08-16 12:14:35+0000 <antoviaque> yep
2011-08-16 12:14:50+0000 <arbrandes> how about we fix them first thing today, 
so you can accept the stories we did before?
2011-08-16 12:15:01+0000 <antoviaque> what reamins I think is to evaluate the 
stories for the alpha4 and create the tasks
2011-08-16 12:15:08+0000 <antoviaque> arbrandes: sounds good
2011-08-16 12:15:40+0000 <antoviaque> arbrandes: and then we can both have a 
look at estimating the next sprint
2011-08-16 12:15:53+0000 <arbrandes> antoviaque, meanwhile, you could start 
picking stories for alpha4.  When we're done with the bugs, we'll put some 
bananas on the stories and create tasks.
2011-08-16 12:16:04+0000 <antoviaque> arbrandes: already done : )
2011-08-16 12:16:08+0000 <arbrandes> awesome :)
2011-08-16 12:16:36+0000 <arbrandes> mtyaka, want me to look at the internal 
server error?
2011-08-16 12:16:44+0000 <arbrandes> mtyaka, or do you have a handle on it 
already?
2011-08-16 12:16:50+0000 <mtyaka> arbrandes: sorted it out already
2011-08-16 12:16:56+0000 <antoviaque> ok - I think we're done for the daily 
meeting - anything else to discuss?
2011-08-16 12:17:05+0000 <blanchard1> i'm good
2011-08-16 12:17:08+0000 <arbrandes> antoviaque, not for now, I think we're good
2011-08-16 12:17:15+0000 <mtyaka> arbrandes: you'll need to delete the sqlite 
database file
2011-08-16 12:17:17+0000 <antoviaque> okidok
2011-08-16 12:17:22+0000 <antoviaque> eve_: end dailymeeting

2011-08-16 12:23:24+0000 <antoviaque> tartarugafeliz has done a very good job 
to improve the accessibility, and arbrandes and mtyaka are hard at work on the 
implementation :)

free software community through him (among other things ;p)

2011-08-16 12:40:19+0000 <antoviaque> ;p
2011-08-16 12:40:32+0000 <antoviaque> glad to be able to give more work hehehe
2011-08-16 12:40:50+0000 <antoviaque> lincoln: you developed it?
2011-08-16 12:40:53+0000 <lincoln> yup
2011-08-16 12:41:00+0000 <lincoln> antoviaque, a natural bug hunter born! :)
2011-08-16 12:41:04+0000 <antoviaque> congratz - very cool initiative :)
2011-08-16 12:41:15+0000 <lincoln> thank you
2011-08-16 12:42:05+0000 <lincoln> hey, have you tried nodejs and socket.io 
stuff?
2011-08-16 12:42:32+0000 <arbrandes> heard about it, haven't tried it yet
2011-08-16 12:42:36+0000 <lincoln> I was reading about it these days and 
started to think about how fun and productive would be to develop a web game 
with it
2011-08-16 12:43:10+0000 <antoviaque> dachary did try it I think - in any case 
I've heard a lot of good things about it
2011-08-16 12:43:33+0000 <antoviaque> (also that it's still a bit early stage, 
but that feedback starts to date a bit : ) )
2011-08-16 13:05:26+0000 blanchard1 (blanchard1) is now offline
2011-08-16 13:13:33+0000 <mtyaka> antoviaque: i can't seem to be able to 
reproduce #339 (The author is displayed as having joined the game like a player)
2011-08-16 13:14:04+0000 <antoviaque> mtyaka: let me try again
2011-08-16 13:14:26+0000 <arbrandes> mtyaka, it only happens when using django
2011-08-16 13:14:50+0000 <arbrandes> it's probably got something to do with how 
the server's returning the player names
2011-08-16 13:15:12+0000 <antoviaque> ah ok
2011-08-16 13:15:18+0000 <mtyaka> arbrandes: oh, i see, i am not using django
2011-08-16 13:15:35+0000 <arbrandes> I smell a failing "if (owner_id == 
player[i][0])"
2011-08-16 13:15:38+0000 <antoviaque> yep I always try to test as much as 
possible in "real" circumstances
2011-08-16 13:16:09+0000 <arbrandes> Good for us that you do :)
2011-08-16 13:16:23+0000 <mtyaka> arbrandes: i checked the javascript code for 
this, but as far as i can tell we check it everywhere
2011-08-16 13:16:57+0000 <arbrandes> mtyaka, yup, what you could do is compare 
what's different when django's running
2011-08-16 13:17:03+0000 <arbrandes> in the game array
2011-08-16 13:17:06+0000 <mtyaka> i'll try to get django up and then see
2011-08-16 13:18:03+0000 <mtyaka> arbrandes: could you please explain in a 
couple of words, what's the purpose of django in Card stories? i have no idea 
what we are using it for
2011-08-16 13:18:30+0000 <arbrandes> mtyaka, for now, it's just for handling 
user registration with passwords, or from Facebook.
2011-08-16 13:18:56+0000 <mtyaka> arbrandes: i see, thanks!
2011-08-16 13:19:02+0000 <arbrandes> mtyaka, later, it will handle extras such 
as buying/selling card decks, etc
2011-08-16 13:50:11+0000 <mtyaka> after some initial problems, i managed to get 
django up and running, and now i can reproduce the problem.
2011-08-16 13:50:37+0000 <arbrandes> What sort of trouble did you run into?
2011-08-16 13:51:22+0000 <antoviaque> btw I'm changing a bit the views to 
differentiate stories for later and stories for current sprint (now in two 
different views), to allow to sort a bit the stories
2011-08-16 13:51:45+0000 <arbrandes> antoviaque, cool :)
2011-08-16 13:52:08+0000 <antoviaque> I'm also removing the "accepted" state 
from tasks&bugs, which will now be the stories which aren't affected to a 
sprint yet
2011-08-16 13:53:10+0000 <arbrandes> ahhh, excellent, the "accepted" was sort 
of useless otherwise
2011-08-16 13:53:16+0000 <arbrandes> (at least currently)
2011-08-16 13:53:20+0000 <antoviaque> yep
2011-08-16 13:53:43+0000 <antoviaque> I'm keeping it for the stories though, 
it's a good way to differentiate since we can't filter by target version
2011-08-16 13:55:19+0000 <mtyaka> arbrandes: i had to install simplejson - the 
other issues i had were due to my own stupidity - i mistyped 
local.cardstories.org in my hosts file, forgot i have another server running on 
port 80, etc...
2011-08-16 13:55:38+0000 <arbrandes> mtyaka, hehehe, ok :)
2011-08-16 13:55:50+0000 <mtyaka> now after inspecting what's wrong, this is 
what i see:
2011-08-16 13:55:57+0000 <antoviaque> a suggestion entered by anyone in the 
tracker could follow this workflow: new => one day maybe => accepted (becomes a 
story) => targeted for sprint => gives creation of tasks => task available => 
task in progress => task ready for review => task merged => story ready for 
review => story merged
2011-08-16 13:56:00+0000 <antoviaque> if that makes sense ;p
2011-08-16 13:56:26+0000 <arbrandes> antoviaque, it does
2011-08-16 13:58:08+0000 <mtyaka> arbrandes: game.players[0][0] is 
"[email protected]" (my email), while game.owner_id is the number 2
2011-08-16 14:04:48+0000 <arbrandes> mtyaka, meowwww
2011-08-16 14:04:58+0000 <arbrandes> mtyaka, it's a translation issue
2011-08-16 14:04:59+0000 <arbrandes> damn
2011-08-16 14:05:32+0000 <arbrandes> mtyaka, it'll have to be fixed in the 
djangoauth plugin, probably.
2011-08-16 14:05:57+0000 <arbrandes> if you don't want to get into that can of 
worms, I can take care of it.
2011-08-16 14:06:31+0000 <mtyaka> arbrandes: ok, i'll let you do it :)
2011-08-16 14:06:41+0000 <arbrandes> mtyaka, roger roger :)
2011-08-16 14:52:56+0000 <antoviaque> ok, done with the tracker for now
2011-08-16 14:52:56+0000 <antoviaque> In addition to 
http://tickets.farsides.com/projects/cardstories/issues?query_id=13 which gives 
the current sprint(s), there is a new view 
http://tickets.farsides.com/projects/cardstories/issues?query_id=15 that should 
give an idea of what's coming next
2011-08-16 14:53:34+0000 <antoviaque> On 
http://tickets.farsides.com/projects/cardstories/issues?query_id=15 there are 
the tasks that are critical for playtesting the game (in red/high prio)
2011-08-16 14:54:00+0000 <arbrandes> antoviaque, niiiiice
2011-08-16 14:54:04+0000 <arbrandes> much clearer, now
2011-08-16 14:54:09+0000 <antoviaque> :)
2011-08-16 14:54:19+0000 <antoviaque> btw not all the player stories have been 
created, I'll do the rest once tartarugafeliz is done with the video of the 
player views
2011-08-16 14:55:27+0000 <antoviaque> I've only included 2 from the chat (the 
ones necessary to be able to discuss with players who come playtesting and join 
their games)
2011-08-16 14:55:41+0000 <arbrandes> antoviaque, cool, from what I see there's 
more work on the Author before we get there anyway
2011-08-16 14:55:50+0000 <antoviaque> yup
2011-08-16 14:56:19+0000 <antoviaque> but it can be good to get an idea of the 
critical path to playtesting : )
2011-08-16 14:57:26+0000 <arbrandes> Ahhh, definitely
2011-08-16 14:57:36+0000 <arbrandes> Without the stories and the video, we're 
basically blind
2011-08-16 15:07:47+0000 <antoviaque> ok, I'll have a look at the BP now - 
arbrandes ping me when you want to have a look at the stories for the alpha4 
sprint
2011-08-16 15:08:06+0000 <arbrandes> antoviaque, roger that
2011-08-16 15:08:47+0000 <antoviaque> mtyaka: do you have a task for today at 
the end?
2011-08-16 15:13:02+0000 <arbrandes> antoviaque, a few requests: 1) story #211 
is ready for review, maybe we can include it in alpha3.  2) Can I bump the 
estimated times on #334 and #335 to match spent time?  Explanations in the 
comments.  3) I'm taking on #339, do 2 hours sound good?
2011-08-16 15:13:23+0000 <antoviaque> looking
2011-08-16 15:14:29+0000 <antoviaque> 1) sure - I'm changing it now. let me 
know when I can pull again the version for this sprint, I'll review that one at 
the same time
2011-08-16 15:15:04+0000 <arbrandes> antoviaque, sure, will do, probably after 
fixing #339
2011-08-16 15:15:19+0000 <antoviaque> ok : ) thx!
2011-08-16 15:15:44+0000 <antoviaque> 2) no problem, good for me
2011-08-16 15:15:56+0000 <antoviaque> 3) ok too! :)
2011-08-16 15:16:00+0000 <arbrandes> thanks :)
2011-08-16 15:16:03+0000 <antoviaque> ;p
2011-08-16 15:16:19+0000 <antoviaque> thanks to you, actually :p
2011-08-16 15:16:37+0000 <arbrandes> np :)
2011-08-16 15:16:47+0000 <mtyaka> antoviaque: no, i didn't find a suitable 
task, since arbrandes took on #339. Do you have any in mind?
2011-08-16 15:17:00+0000 <antoviaque> nope, but let me try to have a look
2011-08-16 15:17:08+0000 <arbrandes> antoviaque, mtyaka, are there any more 
bugs from alpha3?
2011-08-16 15:17:15+0000 <arbrandes> aside from #339
2011-08-16 15:17:34+0000 <mtyaka> arbrandes: i think i discovered one, but i am 
not completely sure
2011-08-16 15:18:23+0000 <antoviaque> there is 
http://tickets.farsides.com/issues/340 - it's not due to this sprint, but it 
testing allowed me to see it
2011-08-16 15:18:45+0000 <mtyaka> when i tried to simulate a player voting on a 
card in vote_owner state, the slot didn't change the state, as it should have, 
but instead the cards started shuffling
2011-08-16 15:19:04+0000 <mtyaka> if i refresh the page, it works properly, 
though
2011-08-16 15:19:26+0000 <arbrandes> antoviaque, 340 looks like another job for 
me, unless mtyaka wants to get his hands dirty with django ;)
2011-08-16 15:19:49+0000 <arbrandes> mtyaka, I fixed that in my latest commit
2011-08-16 15:20:05+0000 <antoviaque> hehe - depends on you both yep
2011-08-16 15:20:54+0000 <arbrandes> I've absolutely nothing against it, it's 
up to him
2011-08-16 15:21:46+0000 <mtyaka> hehe, actually i wouldn't mind doing it, but 
since i am not familiar with django, i think it would take me too long
2011-08-16 15:22:05+0000 <antoviaque> np, I'll leave it as a story for later on
2011-08-16 15:22:12+0000 <antoviaque> let me see if I can find something else
2011-08-16 15:22:41+0000 <antoviaque> ah maybe 
http://tickets.farsides.com/issues/151
2011-08-16 15:23:13+0000 <antoviaque> this is a problem the first time an 
animation loads, it's hard to see what's going on with half cut animations 
still loading
2011-08-16 15:24:06+0000 <antoviaque> but not sure when it's best to do this
2011-08-16 15:24:15+0000 <antoviaque> later on, it could mean redoing a lot of 
stuff
2011-08-16 15:24:26+0000 <arbrandes> looking
2011-08-16 15:24:31+0000 <antoviaque> too early, it may complicate the addition 
of new images/animations
2011-08-16 15:24:35+0000 lincoln_ (lincoln_) is now online
2011-08-16 15:25:30+0000 <arbrandes> antoviaque, maybe a ticket for simple 
preloading of sprite animations, with a generic "thumper"?
2011-08-16 15:25:52+0000 <arbrandes> without turning all images into sprites 
just yet
2011-08-16 15:26:02+0000 <antoviaque> sounds good to me
2011-08-16 15:26:31+0000 <arbrandes> (I meant "throbber")
2011-08-16 15:26:55+0000 <arbrandes> mtyaka, what do you think? ^
2011-08-16 15:27:11+0000 <mtyaka> let me see...
2011-08-16 15:27:24+0000 <arbrandes> The question remains on when exactly to do 
it, and what to show as a background.
2011-08-16 15:27:58+0000 <arbrandes> or even *if* whe want a throbber just yet
2011-08-16 15:28:11+0000 <arbrandes> Maybe just the regular browser throbber 
will do
2011-08-16 15:28:39+0000 <arbrandes> But at least the animations (and possibly 
other images) will be loaded from the get-go.
2011-08-16 15:29:41+0000 <mtyaka> the problem is most evident with cards and 
png animations, right? if we can preload those, it will already be much better
2011-08-16 15:29:50+0000 <antoviaque> yep
2011-08-16 15:29:51+0000 <arbrandes> mtyaka, yup
2011-08-16 15:31:42+0000 <mtyaka> i think doing sprites at this time is too 
soon, we'd have to be redoing too much in the future
2011-08-16 15:32:15+0000 <arbrandes> agreed
2011-08-16 15:32:15+0000 <mtyaka> but we could try to preload the most 
important images
2011-08-16 15:32:34+0000 <arbrandes> mtyaka, wanna take that on?
2011-08-16 15:32:51+0000 <mtyaka> sure, this sounds like fun!
2011-08-16 15:32:55+0000 <antoviaque> :)
2011-08-16 15:33:19+0000 <antoviaque> mtyaka: do what seems the smartest to do 
at this point
2011-08-16 15:33:36+0000 <mtyaka> i'll think about it some more, than try it 
out to see how it works in practice
2011-08-16 15:33:51+0000 <antoviaque> yup
2011-08-16 15:34:33+0000 <antoviaque> I'll let you create the task when you 
have defined the job more precisely
2011-08-16 15:34:47+0000 <mtyaka> antoviaque: ok, great, thanks!
2011-08-16 15:34:54+0000 <antoviaque> thanks to you :)
2011-08-16 15:35:02+0000 <arbrandes> be back in a little while, gotta eat 
sumthin'
2011-08-16 15:35:08+0000 <antoviaque> arbrandes: bon ap : )
2011-08-16 15:35:13+0000 <arbrandes> thanks :)
2011-08-16 18:26:33+0000 <arbrandes> antoviaque, 339 fixed, you might want to 
pull again
2011-08-16 18:26:53+0000 <arbrandes> You can also check story #211 from my 
master
2011-08-16 18:43:33+0000 <arbrandes> antoviaque, also, I'm taking on 
http://tickets.farsides.com/issues/340, if you would be so kind as to review 
the estimate... :)
2011-08-16 18:44:21+0000 <arbrandes> will be away for a couple of hours, need 
to fix my car's window (ack, the real world sucks)
2011-08-16 18:44:32+0000 <arbrandes> bbl
2011-08-16 22:31:41+0000 arbrandes (arbrandes) is now online
