Caledon Oxbridge Q&A for 2017-03-05

14:47 Wordsmith Jarvinen Wonders if this is going to end up a one-dean night
14:48 Fidget (fidgetswidgets) :)
14:48 Fidget (fidgetswidgets) If it's the right dean ... then all will be well!
14:51 Wordsmith Jarvinen "In the landscape of spring there is neither better nor worse. The flowering branches grow naturally -- some long, some short" -- Lao Tsu
14:53 Fidget (fidgetswidgets) ponders the imponderable
14:53 Fidget (fidgetswidgets) ... and munches on a bamboo shoot.
14:56 Wordsmith Jarvinen It is a wise panda that carries her own sustainable forest.
14:56 Fidget (fidgetswidgets) grins. "And a hungry one!"
14:58 RainyDayRecess Hi all ;)
14:58 Wordsmith Jarvinen Hello, Rainy.
14:59 RainyDayRecess Where is everybody, or is it just my viewer?
14:59 Fidget (fidgetswidgets) waves.
14:59 Wordsmith Jarvinen Fidget is here with her bamboo forest.
14:59 RainyDayRecess Hi Fidget ;)
14:59 RainyDayRecess Nice ;)
15:00 Wordsmith Jarvinen Others may be out frustrating themselves looking for roses.
15:00 RainyDayRecess Super cute Fidget! :D
15:00 Fidget (fidgetswidgets) /mem grins at RainyDay.
15:00 Fidget (fidgetswidgets) Thank you.
15:00 RainyDayRecess Ah, right, is the rose hunt still on?
15:00 RainyDayRecess I thought there was a time limit?
15:00 Fidget (fidgetswidgets) Oh there's a hunt, I vaguely recall that. I'm very bad at hunts.
15:00 Wordsmith Jarvinen Phynne wasn't feeling well and was indefinite.
15:00 RainyDayRecess Hi Gronk! :D
15:01 RainyDayRecess Awwww, :(
15:01 RainyDayRecess How are you Gronk?
15:01 Wordsmith Jarvinen Hi, Gronk
15:01 Gronk Seriman Quite Peachy!
15:01 RainyDayRecess Nice to see you ;)
15:01 Gronk Seriman Great to see you, too!
15:02 RainyDayRecess :)
15:02 Gronk Seriman This looks like it will be a small meeting.
15:02 RainyDayRecess I know right?
15:02 RainyDayRecess Hi Agathat!
15:02 Wordsmith Jarvinen We just added Agatha.
15:02 Agatha Macbeth Bonsoir
15:03 RainyDayRecess *Agatha :D
15:03 Gronk Seriman Hello, Agatha!
15:03 Agatha Macbeth Athat and Agathis
15:03 Agatha Macbeth :P
15:03 RainyDayRecess ;)
15:03 Wordsmith Jarvinen Welcomes the front row to this week's Q&A
15:04 Agatha Macbeth Oh, what happened to the back row?
15:04 Fidget (fidgetswidgets) It's empty for once.
15:04 RainyDayRecess And the middle too
15:04 Gronk Seriman Lack of spectators.
15:04 Wordsmith Jarvinen Perhaps they became a bit forward.
15:05 Agatha Macbeth >.<
15:05 Wordsmith Jarvinen And we do appear to have reduced our middle.
15:05 RainyDayRecess Hi Menta!
15:05 Wordsmith Jarvinen Hi Menta.
15:05 Menta Black (mentadent) Hello
15:05 Wordsmith Jarvinen So report wise, looks like just me.
15:06 RainyDayRecess Hi Sage! ;)
15:06 Sage Willowroot (annmarie1956) Hello
15:06 Sage Willowroot (annmarie1956) More monsters at Oxbridge from social island. Not newbies
15:07 Agatha Macbeth Hello Andrea
15:07 Wordsmith Jarvinen I've got all the parts on the web interfacing with the newer scheduler working and the current classes set up in the scheduler.
15:07 RainyDayRecess Hey Andrea! :D
15:07 Sage Willowroot (annmarie1956) Hi Andrea
15:07 Fidget (fidgetswidgets) cheers for interfaces and schedulers.
15:07 RainyDayRecess Nice work Word ;)
15:07 Wordsmith Jarvinen Welcome Andrea.
15:07 Gronk Seriman Yay, Word!
15:09 Wordsmith Jarvinen The big change is that lectures are defined separately from the scheduling -- title of class, teacher, and description being the major fields.
15:09 Wordsmith Jarvinen The schedule has a dropdown list of defined classes and the a field to enter location.
15:10 Wordsmith Jarvinen All that makes for a bit more flexibility.
15:11 Gronk Seriman So the Atelier may live again!
15:11 Wordsmith Jarvinen What I've got left to do is to update the inworld class trackers to use the newer set of information, something that shouldn't be a major change.
15:12 Wordsmith Jarvinen Have to find somebody to teach stuff there, but the new mesh kiosk can handle up to 5 venues.
15:12 RainyDayRecess Nice ;)
15:12 Fidget (fidgetswidgets) applauds
15:13 Agatha Macbeth Woot
15:13 RainyDayRecess Yay!!
15:13 Wordsmith Jarvinen Even without using those, I can now handle multiple places as long has classes aren't simultaneous.
15:14 Wordsmith Jarvinen So, that's all dropping into place.
15:14 Gronk Seriman Nice!
15:14 Wordsmith Jarvinen I had a set of notes on using mesh studio sent to me.
15:15 Wordsmith Jarvinen I asked Kaylee to confirm to me that she created them.
15:15 Gronk Seriman What is "mesh studio"?
15:16 Wordsmith Jarvinen It's a system to take a prim creation and turn it into mesh.
15:16 Gronk Seriman Ooo!
15:16 Sage Willowroot (annmarie1956) Does that lower prim count?
15:16 RainyDayRecess Hi Samm!! :D
15:16 Wordsmith Jarvinen Likely not as optimized as by hand.
15:17 Samm Florian Hi!
15:17 Wordsmith Jarvinen It's our young lady of the roses.

15:17 RainyDayRecess Does it last all day?
15:17 Wordsmith Jarvinen They could belong to ISC and miss it?
15:17 Fidget (fidgetswidgets) not where to start ...
15:18 Fidget (fidgetswidgets) Not that I'll get much past the start.
15:18 Samm Florian Until all th'roses are found. More are bloomin' tonight at 9:30

15:26 Fidget (fidgetswidgets) takes off to see if she can find a rose.
15:26 Fidget (fidgetswidgets) waves her bamboo shoot in farewell to all and sundry.
15:26 RainyDayRecess Good luck Fidget!
15:26 Wordsmith Jarvinen (wonders about the nutrient and pH balance for bamboo)
15:26 Agatha Macbeth Who kidnapped all our deans?
15:26 RainyDayRecess Great if you're a panda
15:27 Wordsmith Jarvinen Phrynne isn't feeling well. Lindal teaches earlier but seem to rarely make these.. Need to replace Brace....
15:27 Agatha Macbeth Aww

15:27 Agatha Macbeth Hope she's better soon
