Hi All, It has taken me a little while to getting around to chansing up my last email. There are a few bits to this email - minutes from the last meeting, (with some updates from me), an agenda for the next meeting and = a request for the next meeting. Please read through it all. The vague stuff I have from the last meeting is below (Milestone 2). I have also attached a PDF of the notes I took in the meeting (with some information about the tasks I had below). - Database (Doychi) - Create and drop - Some data add scripts - DB Backup - DB Agnostic stuff This was basically covered in the meeting. It is in the MySQL documentat= ion. - Set up sourceforge.net account (Doychi) Done =96 but some discussion about how to do the administration. The decisions made, as recorded in the minutes, have been implemented. I have made Elissa an administrator, just in case I'm not reachable (even though this wasn't clearly recorded in the minute, I believe this is what the decision was). - Some one needs to workout how to store the website in CVS too. (Doychi) Slack, slack Doychi. I haven't even made and attempt at this. I wil= l try and have a bit of a look at it before we meet next. - Workout how to setup auto-builds. (Doychi). Hmm, same here. - Regular meetings: - Meet at least once per month, initially. I'm working on this. Agenda for the next Meeting --------------------------- Given it has been more than a month since my last post, I would like to arrange to get together on the weekend after WWS (the 3rd or 4th of July)= . My intention for this meeting is to pull together a design. I really want to get a design done (even if it isn't a good one) so that we can start coding. I think that coding will get the stone rolling. I would also be really happy if the Tools CD would be ready as well. Mike, do you think you will have a change to look at the JUnit stuff mentioned in the minutes? Milestone 2 ----------- - Access and Authentication - self registration - Web front end - add/remove user and roles - edit user roles - Display some basic info - Look at what tools need to be used - Access to a test server - Design Meeting =96 (Doychi- Announce) - Tuesday 30/3/2004 - Bananna. - Installation Meeting =96 (Doychi to email organise) - Move MRPGS members to marble announce (Doychi). -- Doychi |

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 _______________________________________________________________________ |

Hi all, I've been a bit slack and then progressing into busy over the last couple of months. So I'm now going to try and arrange a time for doing the desing diagrams with Mikey. Given that every one is going to be pretty busy up until Pheno I would like to try and get together in the week or so after it. Below I have listed about a weeks worth of dates that I don't currently have anything booked on. If people could fill out the table, indicating when they are free that day, that would be great. We probably only need a couple of hours at most in any session, but if we could get the bulk of the work done in the this week I would be very happy. I have also been remiss in sending out the minutes/notes from the last meeting. I think they are currently in an OpenOffice document, but I don't have my laptop at the moment so I can't be sure. As this is the case I will pass on the notes when I get my laptop back. mail you all soon.

I'm not sure I can do all of this because I vaguely remember that some of these key names are key words.

Perhaps we should not use MySQL's autoincrement. It might be a better idea to write our own. That said, there will be very few deletes in this system because of the "history" involved in an RPG. -- Doychi |

Hi Justin, I'd like to see the following changes to the database, now that I've=20 given it a look. First, I'd like all tables to have an ID field. This = is to allow easier deletions**. =20 - the chr table to be called "character" (everything else has it spelled out). - "grp" to be called "group" - "usr" to be "user" =20 - The "ogin" field in "usr" to be "login" (in "user"). - "privileges" to be "privilege. - all other tables that are plural (e.g., Character_Holdings) to be singular (Character_Holding). I'm just looking for consistency across the board. All other tables are fully spelled out, and I'd prefer not to have to remember which are, which aren't, etc.=20 ** - If I've already computed that id=3D16 is the record that contains data X, and I choose to delete it, I don't want to have to recompute it each the time. On the other hand, I'm basing this on the assumption that a GM doesn't have an evil twin who's performing the very same=20 database maintenance at the same time to the very end of the very same table. MySQL's auto-incrementing WILL use a previously used max id, which means if someone's deleted and inserted into the same table in the time that you have viewed the data and decided to delete the same last record(s), you WILL be chosing different data than you=20 expect. On the other hand, sometimes you just gotta delete record 16, and you don't have any other way to easily grab it. Feedback, etc? Thanks, Elissa |
