Mar 12 21:25:46 Sonar_Gal    ok
Mar 12 21:25:49 *    nman64 goes to tackle the task list.
Mar 12 21:26:06 StillBob    daMaestro has set up search.fedorasolved.org
Mar 12 21:26:31 daMaestro    it still needs a lot of work
Mar 12 21:26:31 StillBob    this is an ongoing project that i think will be quite useful in our reach
Mar 12 21:27:13 StillBob    we will not turn it public yet but we can all test it to watch the progress
Mar 12 21:27:41 daMaestro    i would like to test the system on another server
Mar 12 21:27:49 daMaestro    i might just have no idea how to setup the server and tune it
Mar 12 21:27:52 StillBob    I am working on a FC5 theme for our sites tha I would like to target for the FC5 release day
Mar 12 21:27:55 daMaestro    the mysql is just damn slow
Mar 12 21:28:31 StillBob    My personal priority for this is quite low
Mar 12 21:28:41 daMaestro    i would also agree.
Mar 12 21:28:58 daMaestro    i just work on it in my spare time along side other work that I have going.
Mar 12 21:29:08 StillBob    Docs will take priority for me from now through the FC5 release
Mar 12 21:29:45 Sonar_Gal    understanble
Mar 12 21:29:49 Sonar_Guy    I am pretty well tied up for the next 2 to 3 months with work.
Mar 12 21:30:03 daMaestro    does anyone think anything on mysql vs pgsql?
Mar 12 21:30:03 StillBob    Sonar_Guy: You are fired
Mar 12 21:30:08 Sonar_Gal    lol
Mar 12 21:30:09 StillBob    LOL
Mar 12 21:30:13 Sonar_Guy    As you all have noticed with my lack of time here lately.
Mar 12 21:30:15 cds    Yeah, I have the end of teh year coming up at uni, so that'll be keeping me busy.
Mar 12 21:30:16 Sonar_Guy    lol
Mar 12 21:30:44 daMaestro    i also would not mind starting on the bot
Mar 12 21:30:54 Sonar_Guy    Back on the road again by next sunday.
Mar 12 21:30:54 daMaestro    i could use my own servers for now and just get a test channel going.
Mar 12 21:32:46 daMaestro    does anyone have some thoughts on what features might be most usefull?
Mar 12 21:33:13 cds    I think I've already gave all my thoughts :)
Mar 12 21:34:32 Sonar_Gal    none here
Mar 12 21:34:56 daMaestro    i have a lot of things going and a lot of software in the works.. so i really don't want to waste my time if I'm not helping.
Mar 12 21:34:59 StillBob    nman64 has contacted Gregdek about endocement of our project by the foundation
Mar 12 21:35:24 Sonar_Gal    cool we need that
Mar 12 21:35:32 StillBob    daMaestro: I think both of these are great ideas that will be very useful to the community
Mar 12 21:36:20 cds    What about getting the site in the /topic of #fedora?
Mar 12 21:36:25 daMaestro    ok. if anyone has feature requests.. please let me know
Mar 12 21:36:52 daMaestro    i will also be working on a web frontend for submitting sites to be indexed
Mar 12 21:36:52 StillBob    cds: that will be something I will work on before the FC5 release
Mar 12 21:37:05 cds    StillBob: Fair do's.
Mar 12 21:40:28 daMaestro    so if i setup this bot soon.. what feature should i work on first?
Mar 12 21:40:50 daMaestro    the ldap backend is a low priority for me..
Mar 12 21:41:23 daMaestro    however, I am looking at using HTML::TreeBuilding to 'teach' the bot and store the data in ldap
Mar 12 21:41:48 daMaestro    HTML::TreeBuilder is the CPAN module I have been using for another project.
Mar 12 21:42:10 cds    I think the storing and recovering information is most importnat.
Mar 12 21:42:36 daMaestro    i can parse data out of just about any html format.. so that allows me to extract data from pretty much any site.
Mar 12 21:43:02 Sonar_Gal    ok Bob Anything Else we need to cover for the meeting tonight?
Mar 12 21:43:25 cds    daMaestro: Nice.
Mar 12 21:43:36 StillBob    Nope that about covers it, any good FC5 images will help me in my template quest
Mar 12 21:44:16 Sonar_Gal    ok
Mar 12 21:44:34 Sonar_Gal    I am going to call the meeting to a close so all offical stuff is covered
Mar 12 21:44:48 *    Sonar_Gal now calls this meeting to a close.
