14:19 < Callum__> yea agreed
14:19 < Callum__> and that is kinda weird
+14:20 < Callum__> i cant seem to find anything in account settings for a timezone
+14:21 < Callum__> Anything else we need done by tomorrow? because i have a bunch of other stuff I'd like to get done
+14:21 < sam_moore> While you're in account settings, you can set your author name for commits
+14:22 < sam_moore> No, there's nothing urgent at this stage
+14:22 < sam_moore> It's only the first week, and we only need 1 page
+14:22 < sam_moore> We can be like "Here is a page of details on how we got Git to work" if we have to
+14:22 < Callum__> Yea just we need to make sure we have enough for 1 page
+14:23 < Callum__> hmm, true i suppose. set up IRC + git repo + discussed an outline on what is going to be required
+14:24 < Callum__> Tbh he'l likely be happy if we just give him a summary of those meeting minutes
+14:25 < Callum__> Anyway i'l divert my attention for now then. If you come across anything interesting or something that can be done il stick around in the channel
+14:25 < sam_moore> Ok, thanks
+14:26 < sam_moore> The first automatic commit of the irc logs seems to have worked!
+14:26 < sam_moore> It also copies everything to git.ucc so we have a backup
+14:26 < Callum__> nice
+14:27 < sam_moore> The times might be correct as well :P
+14:27 < Callum__> was just like "where is it? " then i realise i was looking at my forked repo
+14:27 < sam_moore> Oh, just make sure you don't push anything to the git.ucc repo, because it doesn't go the other way
+14:27 < sam_moore> Actuall I'll just remove everyone's keys to stop that from happening
+14:28 < Callum__> haha, good to be sure. We need to make sure the other 2 have this sorted out. hopefully they rock up to the meeting tomorrow
+14:28 < Callum__> oh wow. the logs go all the way back to when you first connected
+14:28 < Callum__> haha
+14:30 < Callum__> and according to me the logs were commited 15 hours ago
+14:32 < sam_moore> Yeah, my logs will be the best to keep because I don't have to quit, so I should get everything
+14:33 < Callum__> yea
+14:34 < Callum__> Sigh. end of first week. already just written myself a fairly long list of things i need to do, which is by no means comprehensive
+14:36 < sam_moore> I think I have a lot of work to do as well, I should do something for another unit
+14:36 < sam_moore> See you later
+14:36 < Callum__> later
+15:32 < sam_moore> Ok, so pretty much anyone can comment on our stuff, and pretty much anyone can submit bug reports
+15:32 < sam_moore> I'm going to say that's useful, and we should tell all the other teams about it
+15:33 < sam_moore> Also I was supposed to go do something else, whoops
+18:35 < sam_moore> I changed my username because someone pointed out it sounds like "matches succ"
+18:35 < sam_moore> But the old links should redirect
+18:36 -!- justin_ is now known as justin_kruger
+18:37 < sam_moore> Whoops
+20:21 < Callum__> whoops?
+21:20 < sam_moore> EOF From client
+21:32 < sam_moore> I wonder how I can get people's forks to merge into the main repository without them having to issue a pull request
+21:34 < sam_moore> Ah, I can't, because basically they have total control over their own fork
+21:35 < sam_moore> Everyone just remember to fetch from upstream before you do work and issue a pull request when you are done, and hopefully things will stay relatively in sync.

+11:29 < sam_moore> Hi
+11:30 < sam_moore> I've spoken to Omid from the electronics team, they are in charge of the "microcontroller"
+11:31 < sam_moore> Apparently they think a raspberry pi is a good choice
+11:31 < sam_moore> I told him we thought we might need a lower level device to do the ADC/DAC in particular
+11:32 < sam_moore> But they seem to think a raspberry pi by itself will work
+11:33 < sam_moore> I'm kind of not sure who's responsible for this part, since we have "server hardware" and they have "microcontroller" and the raspberry pi is sort of both
+11:33 < sam_moore> But if we agree we want a raspberry pi it probably won't be an issue
+11:33 < sam_moore> Also apparently the unit coordinators recommended the raspberry pi as well
+11:34 < Callum> Yea he did
+11:34 < james__> Well we are using the raspberry pi as a server
+11:34 < james__> And we can bootstrap microcontrollers onto it
+11:34 < james__> So i guess we are in charge of the pi
+11:35 < james__> And the are in charge of the hardware around it
+11:35 < james__> *they
+11:35 < sam_moore> Seems logical
+11:36 < sam_moore> I don't know if you get email notifications; I did a block diagram using the ideas from our first meeting
+11:36 < sam_moore> I kind of added some thoughts of my own
+11:38 < sam_moore> Hopefully it makes sense
+11:41 < sam_moore> If either of you gets time, would you like to start typing some of the progress report?
+11:51 < james__> Do we have to submit a progress report? Because the guide to mechatronics project work that was on lms said we had to do some things for week 1 but not that
+11:52 < sam_moore> I'm pretty sure we do
+11:52 < sam_moore> Hang on
+11:53 < sam_moore> All teams are expected to report next monday (see the report format in the unit outline/overview).
+11:53 < sam_moore> All teams must review their sub-system and provide high level detail of what is required.
+11:54 < sam_moore> All team must take an integrated approach. (I assume this means we have to start talking to other teams ASAP)
+11:54 < sam_moore> I think the block diagram is a good start for the high level detail
+11:54 < sam_moore> Then make some notes about how we're collaborating using git
+11:55 < james__> git and irc
+11:55 < sam_moore> We should decide whether Rowan or I will be the meeting convener
+11:56 < james__> I think you
+11:56 < james__> Just because you actually know what is going on
+11:56 < sam_moore> Yes, I'm happy to do it and I think I can do a good job
+11:56 < sam_moore> I just don't want to try and take over the group or something
+11:56 < sam_moore> I have a good idea of what's going on, but we'll still need everyone to contribute
+11:57 < sam_moore> I'm not a particular expert in any area, I just sort of know enough to have a general idea of how to approach things
+11:57 < james__> Its important that the person who represents us has a firm knowledge base of whats possible and what we plan to do. Ultimately you are the person who best fills those requirements
+11:58 < sam_moore> Ok, thanks, if everyone agrees we'll tell Rowan that when we meet
+11:58 < sam_moore> And he can still talk to his friends for us, in fact the more of us that can communicate with the other teams the better
+11:59 < james__> True
+12:00 < james__> there isn't anything that says he can't talk to others
+12:00 < sam_moore> Omid said his team was going to rotate the meeting convener, maybe we could try that later on once everyone has a better idea of what we're doing
+12:00 < sam_moore> Anyway, I should do some other work, see you at 2pm
+12:01 < james__> Yeah might be worth it. Gives everyone a taster
+12:01 < james__> okay see you then
+20:38 < sam_moore> I'm going to try using the GitHub issues and milestones thing
+20:39 < sam_moore> It might help with keeping track of what we need to do and what we've done
+20:50 < sam_moore> I think we had some difficulty setting specific goals for this week
+20:50 < sam_moore> I can try and put together some longer term goals as a start, if that's helpful
+20:51 < sam_moore> Hmm
+20:52 < sam_moore> We weren't given a lot of requirements that the guy was asking us about
+21:06 < sam_moore> So the most important task seems to be "determine those requirements"
+21:07 < sam_moore> Well, we talked about it in the meeting, but I'm going to make GitHub issues for each of the areas so we have a good record
+21:32 < Callum__> Sam are you talking to yourself or am i not just seeing the other messages?
+21:35 < sam_moore> Yeah, just ranting
+21:36 < sam_moore> Well if you read the messages, then I was talking to you :P
+21:37 < Callum__> haha just they seemed like they were structured like you were responding to someone
+21:39 < sam_moore> I guess that's how I'm used to using IRC, people tend to say stuff broadly directed at anyone even though they won't get an immediate reply
+21:39 < sam_moore> Or even if they don't need a reply
+21:45 < Callum__> Fair enough
