15:02 sempiternel hi
15:02 LadyLyndon Hi Teddy Bear :)
15:03 - ̗̀ Teddy Bear ̖́- (atlasshrugged3) Hello LadyLynn
15:05 Wordsmith Jarvinen Welcome to the weekly Oxbridge Deans' Q&A.
15:05 Wordsmith Jarvinen This is an open meeting, all are welcome unless individual mis-behavior requires otherwise.
15:06 Wordsmith Jarvinen Transcripts will be posted after the meeting.
15:06 Wordsmith Jarvinen Phrynne, will you start, please.
15:06 Phrynne I have quite a few things today.
15:06 Phrynne First -- the Faculty Information Kit is out!
15:07 Gronk Seriman Woohooo!
15:07 Phrynne It was distributed in the COU Notices last week.
15:07 Phrynne If you have not gotten one yet and you are a staff member, please check the notices. If you can't find it, IM me and I will send you one.
15:07 Phrynne Second, there are two new faces on the plaza.
15:08 Phrynne Vanessa Hamer, an emeritus dean, has returned after several years away, and is helping out as a professor.
15:08 Phrynne Visven is a new apprentice tutor, who is covering some time slots when many of us aren't available.
15:08 Phrynne Please make them welcome.
15:09 Jorge Serapis YAY!
15:09 Phrynne In news of the Advent Calendar, we have about a third of the gifts we need either in hand or promised -- which means we need the other 2/3 of them.
15:09 Jorge Serapis like that?
15:09 Phrynne The theme is Steampunk, but we will accept seasonal gifts or something interesting that doesn't fit into a category. For instance, if you like to build something, talk to me.
15:10 Phrynne We cannot accept old Hunt prizes, however.
15:10 Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) Is thinking of a flying gazebo
15:10 Phrynne And everything needs to be copy/trans. If possible it should be full perm, to make things easier.
15:11 Phrynne The chair I am on is a steampunk gift from a previous year, made by Cymbal Constantine. I am assured it will not walk off with me.
15:11 Wordsmith Jarvinen (which doesn't mean it has to be distributed full perm, btw)
15:11 Wordsmith Jarvinen A chair that can't sit still.
15:12 Phrynne It is possible for us to distribute a gift set to no modify
15:12 Phrynne but it's better if you tell us on a notecard that you want it to be no modify and let us set it.
15:13 Phrynne Last, the Portuguese translation of the tutorial is well begun. The entry building is finished, and two people from Ajuda SL Brasil are continuing the work, Roth Grut and one of his assistants, whose name I unfortunately can't recall at the moment.
15:13 Phrynne And that is it for me, for now, unless anyone has questions about what I mentioned.
15:13 Wordsmith Jarvinen Thanks, Phrynne.
15:14 Phrynne oh -- one other thing about permissions for Advent gifts --
15:14 Phrynne if you are making the gift yourself, please make sure that the *textures* are full perm, or it won't be able to be distributed.
15:14 Phrynne *looks back at Word*
15:14 Wordsmith Jarvinen Andrea?
15:14 Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) The Belly Dancing fundraiser is on for this coming Tuesday night. DJ Sugar Sprinkles will be the DJ. Please send ma any requests you might have and I'll forward them to her before Tuesday night.
15:14 Wordsmith Jarvinen Or rather Andrea #1
15:15 Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) The 4 beach towels below have 2 different animations
15:16 Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) they will be a gift back at 300 lindens or more at the fundraiser.
15:16 Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) You will get all 4.
15:16 Gronk Seriman Ooo!
15:16 Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) my 2 lovely assistants are demoing the animations for you
15:16 Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) Sand not included, I assume
15:16 Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) and causing me lag.
15:17 Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) no no sand
15:17 Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) oops lost one of me
15:17 Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) anyway.
15:17 Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) i hope to have something concrete on the dark carnival fundraiser soon.
15:18 Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) Tier is coming due soon, So I will be in higher gear this next week.
15:18 Andrea Jones (andreajonesms) Looks back at Wordsmith
15:20 Wordsmith Jarvinen Most of this week, got eaten by things associated with RL meetings near LAX.
15:20 Gronk Seriman So you are now ex-LAX?
15:20 Wordsmith Jarvinen I have worked out the basic scheme for scripting the synced two-piece motions.
15:21 Wordsmith Jarvinen Getting the build for SL15B done is my priority for the next week.
15:21 Ingonyama (tkb158) shakes head and chuckles at Gronk
15:21 Gronk Seriman is sorry.
15:21 Wordsmith Jarvinen Yes, LAX was prior. ;)
15:22 Wordsmith Jarvinen Good pun, Gronk.
15:23 Elfbiter Skysmith (elfbiter) does not mention any purgatives
15:23 Wordsmith Jarvinen Oh, to answer your question from last week, Gronk, there's no simple script command to move two separate pieces as one. And each of the four pieces has to be a root piece to have items inside it move with it.
15:24 Wordsmith Jarvinen With that, open for general questions.
15:24 Jorge Serapis *raises hand*
15:24 Wordsmith Jarvinen Jorge?
15:25 Jorge Serapis Not so much a question as a statement...
15:25 Wordsmith Jarvinen That works also
15:25 Jorge Serapis .. I owe you, Phrynne, and generally all of COU a genuine and heartfelt apology.
15:25 Jorge Serapis I pushed for the translations, volunteered to take on the project.. and I let all of y`all down.
15:26 Phrynne You completed five and a half of seven buildings. That's an achievement.
15:26 Jorge Serapis I am deeply sorry I could not finish it, so um.. yea. Sorry.
15:26 Wordsmith Jarvinen And we owe you a Gracias for what you were able to complete and also for motivating the project.
15:27 Jorge Serapis I am immensely grateful Master Johann stepped in to complete the Spanish translations.
15:28 Jorge Serapis I am also truly excited to see the project come to fruition, and I sincerely hope it`s the unmitigated success I pray it will be.
15:28 Wordsmith Jarvinen Working as a team, we accomplish more than any of us can complete alone. You have been an important member of the team.
