Hello Eric, I have got some information that you have regular expressions in your gobo lib. However on gobosoft.com I have not found any description. Can you give me a reference? Thanks Helmut |

Guys/dolls: I know it's been a long time and all, so first of all, 'ello. HOpe everyone is gainfully employed, or at least enjoying what they're doing. That said, about 11 months ago I e-mailed some files to someone to post to the CVS 'cuz I had no CVS client on the puter I was using. Well, my hard drive took a crap, and the GOBO files I was working on were one of the things that happened to not have been backed up. So, since I can't seem to locate them on CVS, can someone either point me towards them or just e-mail back some copies ? :Bruce Cooper _______________________________________________ Join Excite! - http://www.excite.com The most personalized portal on the Web! |

Dear Open Source developer I am doing a research project on "Fun and Software Development" in which I kindly invite you to participate. You will find the online survey under http://fasd.ethz.ch/qsf/. The questionnaire consists of 53 questions and you will need about 15 minutes to complete it. With the FASD project (Fun and Software Development) we want to define the motivational significance of fun when software developers decide to engage in Open Source projects. What is special about our research project is that a similar survey is planned with software developers in commercial firms. This procedure allows the immediate comparison between the involved individuals and the conditions of production of these two development models. Thus we hope to obtain substantial new insights to the phenomenon of Open Source Development. With many thanks for your participation, Benno Luthiger PS: The results of the survey will be published under http://www.isu.unizh.ch/fuehrung/blprojects/FASD/. We have set up the mailing list fa...@we... for this study. Please see http://fasd.ethz.ch/qsf/mailinglist_en.html for registration to this mailing list. _______________________________________________________________________ Benno Luthiger Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zurich 8092 Zurich Mail: benno.luthiger(at)id.ethz.ch _______________________________________________________________________ |

Just update on where I'm at... I've taken Bruce's suggestions to heart. Evita is finally in performances, but I was a fool and got cast in Rocky Horror, so now I'm rehearsing or performing every night of the week. Should quiet down in a few weeks. Just wanted to let everyone know that I haven't dropped off the planet :) (planet, schmanet) Bryan |

I'll let you mull over it for a while before I start trying to wrap my slow thinking around it. > > I'm feeling sort of split on your question about venue coding (simple and move on versus get-it-right).

Do you want to work on that, while I set up preferences? > I've been trying to come up with a good way of doing it. Do we ask them how large of a canvas they want (400x400px) and then have them click once, present a form that they fill in the info (seat number, section, etc), this is slow and tedious, but they can lay it out exactly as they want. Do we just allow them to import a graphic that they create in whatever (gimp, photoshop) to show actual layout of the space, but we do something simple like ask them to Define # of sections, rows and # of seats in each section and numbering scheme? Then when they go to sell tickets, they select a section, are presented something like: R1 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 R2 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 R3 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 with each one color coded specifying if it's been sold already or not. This would be separating the actual physical layout display with a functional display used when ordering/selling tickets. Definition of rows in this manner also become difficult because of the following possible seat numbering schemes: 1) i 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 i s 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 s l 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 l e 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 e 2) Reverse, number right to left 3) 1 2 3 4 5 i 6 7 8 9 10 1 2 3 4 5 s 6 7 8 9 10 1 2 3 4 5 l 6 7 8 9 10 1 2 3 4 5 e 6 7 8 9 10 4) 10 8 6 4 2 i 1 3 5 7 9 10 8 6 4 2 s 1 3 5 7 9 10 8 6 4 2 l 1 3 5 7 9 10 8 6 4 2 i 1 3 5 7 9 So because of that, the concept of defining "rows of seats" or "sections of seats" becomes more difficult. Perhaps it would be best to define "seats beloning to rows" "rows belonging to sections" and "sections belonging to venues" I'm also trying to keep in mind future needs, such as a function that would say "Search for the best 4 contiguous seats that are available." Or search for the best 10, split across up to two rows. And searches of the like. I also toyed with the idea, would it be best to have seat definition / seat selection be a java applet that talks in "real-time" with the server via a SOAP interface to get the status of all seats. Would using java make venue definition harder? easier? or would it be irrelevant to venue definition? Any thoughts? I've been walking around in circles about this for a couple weeks now. Bry |

All: Am still out here, but with not a whole lot of time to consider and/or write softwares for us. Am leaving for a tour with Nebraska Theatre Caravan a week from tomorrow. Have continued work on the venue builder and performance space builder scripts, will mail my stubs to bryan or another before I go. Best of luck, guys and dolls.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 hello. i am interested. have not had time to browse the CVS. just stumbled upon the project page when i was looking for a GPLed ticketing system (much simpler that your aspirations... no multiple venues, no seating). also interested in how the system would communicate with a UPOS thermal printer. - -o On Fri, Aug 29, 2003 at 11:50:32AM -0400, Bryan Ragon wrote: > Anyone still out there?

Time for a role call. Who is still around and kicking? Bruce, i know you've been looking over the code in CVS, have you been able to check out a working copy of it yet? Joseph, have you checked out the changes I placed into CVS? Can you do a sql dump of the ACL's and such that you've created so far? For the templates did you plan on putting everything inside general.html, or would you have a template for each "section?" (selling, reports, setup, etc....). I think we could work on two areas at the moment. One would be creating the online user management. Which should the other be? If we follow the usage workflow, it would probably be defining the venue. Perhaps for now we should just create a simple venue creation scheme that just has # of rows and # of seats wide. Then later we can come back and worry about fleshing it out to be able to do sections / balconies / and geographic representation of location. What does everyone think of that? Or should we spend the time now to get venues done right? Bry |

Guys/Dolls: Now that I've a bit of free time I've been browsing the CVS repository. Must say that there is more there than I expected. [which is good, generally] I have a question, though. I noticed the images/ directory there and a bunch of small, 10x10 or so images. Are these intended to be used for displaying a seating layout and/or setting up that layout ? Also, I noticed the TODO list....has there been consensus on this that I missed or is this someone's personal TODO list. [Doesn't matter, really, but I'd like to know. Some of the stuff I can get to work on if it ain't started] As some of you may have noticed, I'm somewhat different in development process. I'm completely unfamiliar with CVS, I tend to work in a functional rather than OO style, and well, I'm a bit developer-deficient to begin with. Please, be patient with me. I'll make every effort to be a valued member. 'nuf said :Bruce _______________________________________________ Express Yourself - Share Your Mood in Emails!

Well, to get my feet wet I started in on the user preferences page. Not much there so far, but you can now change your own default section page. Joseph, can you update your working copy and tell me if the structure of what I all added matches what you were thinking of? Thanks, Bry |

Well, I found the gacls startup script in it's directory. And I was able to figure out enough of the users table to allow me to logon. Looks sharp so far. I'll play around with the template system just to try to get a little more familiar with the framework you've got setup. If you like I can get started on that setup script. It would be nice for us to develope one of those and to keep it up to date as we go along, so we can quickly recreate an install from scratch. Bry |

Ran into just a couple minor problems when I set it up. the template_c directory was not added to cvs. I also modified phpgacl/gacl.class.php to use the constants defined in include/config.inc.php rather than having to define the database parameters twice. I now get the logon screen perfectly. :) My only problem is I don't see any code for generating the database. Would you happen to have a schema file that I can use? If you get me that I'd be happy to write a php script to generate the tables on first install. I'm using mysql as my backend, I see that you're using postgresql. Hopefully that'll keep the code portable. Bry |

All right, I learned a little CVS and added my efforts to the repository. One thing to know is that if you go looking via the web access, you are 24 hours behind the current documents. Better to download a nightly CVS tarball or check out a developer copy--that way you get the live server copies. Things I put together: - user class based on phpGACL, leaning heavily on Bryan's version of the IRM system for ideas about functions and structure - templating using Smarty (smarty.php.net) - navigation structure - localization function and strings files - error/alert handling and some other stuff. It's mostly application framework type stuff, not much to do with an actual box office. I think I didn't quite get all of phpgacl committed to cvs, so I'll try again on that later today.

Gents/Ladies: Well, the initial work is done for the Venu-builder. Or should I say the VERY initial work. It produces a web page, so it works. Still needs someone to stick some other guts in it,and I'm not anywhere near done with it, but I've gotta shut down the computer and travel across the country, so I wanted to at least get what I had out to the rest of you. I only have one problem. I don't know how to get it out to you. I'm a complete idiot when it comes to CVS and such things.

As a wise man once said "He who codes carries the weight, and the stick" In other words, fear not to step on someone else's toes or work. Remember competition? It's what this open-source thing is all about, in a sense. I.e. the better code gets kept, and the rest goes back into development ! Myself, I've been working on the layout of the setup-yer-venue pages, and just trying to code what I can. I have two other projects to distract me [sorry]. oh, and I updated the web page. Anyone care to point me to the URL for those documentation pages we did really early on? I'll try and get at least the basic layout work done, and then throw it into the ring.

Thanks for that, Steve--it's a good list of features. And, I think fairly close to the needs we're looking to fill. It sounds like their service is a single centralized system (run and owned by them) which you then have an account on; all services delivered over the internet. Ours I guess could be used that way, but more likely would be installed in many places (one install per box office). TCP-IP delivery is the same, though... The major thing they have done that I hadn't thought about is "cash drawer" and auditing-type functions. Anyway, thank you. We've been quiet for quite a while now... I know I have been way busy with school, and I'm sure you all have your jobs and shows or whatever in the front of your minds. How should we proceed from here? Time to start coding? More research/planning/specifications? Joe |
