  • 09:55 ok, so for ProxyPass to work nice with tomcat6, I need to enable proxy, proxy_http, and proxy_balancer modules for Apache. #
  • 15:28 power cut. We need a switched PDU for the cluster. The servers only shutdown to standby, and the PSU fans go mad as server room temp rises. #

  • 08:49 I don't want to see 'artist's impressions' of nanotech anymore. Show me the smoke and vapour. #
  • 09:28 hmmm, no Ubuntu distro for clustering. Sad. Actually, few Debian based cluster distros... #
  • 09:43 they seem to be setting up a Wii in the common room to entice us out of our offices... #
  • 09:53 hmm, just found a copy of Using and Porting GNU CC, by Richard Stallman, v2.6, 1994. On the bookshelf of my new office.... #

  • 11:34 @dresdencodak like the way that the 'real' material behaves. Solid materials that move like smoke. Now it just needed to sprout tendrils... #
  • 11:36 @wombleton ah, that be Google documents converting styles wierd on me. #
  • 11:38 @wombleton sorted. #
  • 11:39 that style used 'autocolor' in Word, which automatically switched to white on black. #
  • 12:40 hmm... Luster vs. Hadoop, distributed file systems for the cluster... #

  • 08:41 @fogonwater ya, also looks like we ought to trail Visual Studio 2010 beta, depends on MS's definition of 'helpful' it's #concurrency tools #
  • 08:45 @fogonwater out of that lot we should be looking at Titanum, UPC, and TBB, and perhaps Intel Parallel Studio for #concurrency coding #
  • 09:41 ok, #Redmine. Nice. Can have nested projects and projects entirely managed from with in the web app. Unlike trac. #
  • 13:46 @thomasbeagle it makes me a left social libertarian... #
  • 13:50 We now have issue tracking, wiki and repository browser thanks to #Redmine www.redmine.org #
  • 14:26 @jwm_angrymonkey it's Rails based www.redmine.org seems to be AJAX, OTOH evaluating speed and performance on a local VM here... #
  • 14:27 @Aethylred just remember the painful part was making it go with mod_rails aka Phusion Passenger. Had to edit environment.rb and add root URL #
  • 14:28 ....which is why one of the first issues is 'document installation of issue tracking system' #
  • 16:35 the excitement of an inconsistant LDAP directory. Not all users have the same attributes... #
  • 16:38 PS. now have #Redmine authenticating #LDAP on our Novell eDirectory #

  • 08:42 I think the gitosis-admin repository is special.... #
  • 08:46 ...the pinkness... bit.ly/11SoLS #
  • 09:40 righty, chmod the post-update hook and gitosis is unborked :) #
  • 09:40 @thomasbeagle can haz radiators #
  • 09:52 ...or I could just fire up the cluster. It's like a giant hair-dryer. #
  • 13:49 why is it _always_ a permissions error #
  • 14:44 ...tempted to git init in /etc/apache2/ #
  • 14:47 oh, and permissions circumvented by chown on a symlink #
  • 14:48 @wombleton ...so not sure how that works for you :P #
  • 15:43 ok. git integrated int trac easily enough. #
  • 15:44 automated by using trac-admin /pat/to/trac initenv --inherit=/etc/trac/trac.ini #
  • 15:44 now mangling trac.ini in new projects not required. #
  • 16:46 @unifex unfortunatly lacks burden of proof. Again punishment before conviction from National. #
  • 16:55 tomorrow redmine... #

  • 12:32 hmmm. git-daemon and gitosis not so straightforward #
  • 12:32 ...I suspect most everybody else just uses github #
  • 13:04 ok, the git-daemon-run package is not done 'right' #

  • 09:39 ....did I just spend ten minutes writing Hiaku in newspeak.... #
  • 12:31 ak! decisions. Trac vs. Bugzilla vs. Redmine. Mediwiki integration. Git vs. SVN. Worse than that, none seem to exclude the others... #
  • 12:32 also... I think I'm missing out on free pizza #
  • 13:38 @wombleton yes, git's ahead. I'd like MediaWiki, but it depends on how well it plays with others. #
