Fwd: Status update on 1.0
Woops, I meant to send this message to the list -- Forwarded message - From: Kristofer Buffington Date: Wed, Mar 20, 2019 at 8:51 PM Subject: Re: Status update on 1.0 To: Gábor Boskovits I'm deep into this netlink/rtnetlink business currently. I'm trying to decide if it's better to use guile-ffi or if it's just easier to use bash scripts and iproute2. Then virtual network interfaces could map to specific containerized services, which is my objective. Long-term, the netlink and rtnetlink fii is the superior approach. But bash scripts could get us something hacky, but running quickly. My other curiosity is: would it make more sense for shepherd to generate virtual network namespaces when services spawn, or is that something the operating-system declaration should contain? I'd love to help. I'm on the verge of putting some code down now that the research is coalescing into a vision. If there's some guidance or suggestions or otherwise, please try to get me involved!

I find a lot of “setfontdimen” instances in texmf-dist/tex/fontinst/, including the “mathetx” sub-directory. There is also “texmf-dist/tex/lualatex/lualatex-math”, which may be of some use when lualatex is involved. For the modular texlive we only have “texlive-tex-fontinst-base”, which is only for the “base” sub-directory. Turns out we’re building fontinst wrong. There is “texmf-dist/source/fontinst/base/fontinst.ins”, which is a source package. Currently, we just copy the pre-generated “base” sub-directory as if there were no sources. We should change that, but we have the minor problem that we probably cannot use the texlive-build-system here as texlive-tex-fontinst-base is a dependency of texlive-base. We may have to build the ins file “manually” or define a new “texlive-fontinst” package that uses “texlive-tex-fontinst-base” in its bootstrap graph (via the texlive-build-system). What do you think? -- Ricardo

If only I knew what this means… We could grep for these things in the big texlive package and then try to find the equivalent in the modular texlive packages. Building the right fonts and configuring them correctly has always been a problem with the modular texlive packages. -- Ricardo

Re: Video narration
Hi! > Excellent! Yeah! That's really GREAT! And I git pulled without any issue :), thank you! And let me know how we can do with the cli session videos, since they don't have a reference. > > @Laura, Are the texts for the narrations already finalized? I don’t > remember if they have been discussed here on guix-devel. Ideally this > would happen before recording ;) Hi transcript changer ;). I don't remember which transcripts have been discussed. I believe I only did so with my mentors, sending the full videos to them. People can make all the videos from the repo, there they can find everything, they can create the videos as well as find the transcripts. I don't see the point in sending only the transcripts, since they have to watch the video like to match it. And they have my voice like a reference. What we agreed with my mentors and I guess with you too was that the open discussion was about the video and its content, then, after the deadline for that, I created the video, transcript, everything, and sent it to them, because we were not going to have enough time to create videos at all. Gábor has a client that allows us to upload videos already created, but they were going to be uploaded there after the recordings I guess, and only for the community, so that they could watch them. And when approved, have them online on the site. Was it like that or I misunderstood sth? Regards :) Laura

Re: Video narration
Hi Laura, > I have just pushed the last video. > Please, let me know if everything is fine. 'git pull' and 'git push' are working for me. I have updated the README file as an initial test commit. Please check that you are happy with the changes. Also, I have provisionally booked next Friday 29th March to do the recordings. I will be getting some help from a sound engineer to use the gear in the studio. All being well it should be possible to do all the recordings in one session :) Best regards, Paul.
