2009-07-13T11:02:11 <tclarke> please review and make any corrections
2009-07-13T11:02:24 <tclarke> Kip and I have been working on getting the linux build up to snuff when we have spare time
2009-07-13T11:02:25 <gmartin_cn> here
2009-07-13T11:03:40 <tclarke> testbed so getting closer to funcational
2009-07-13T11:03:47 <tclarke> I've been working on automatically building an installer
2009-07-13T11:03:57 <tclarke> I expect to have that done next weekend so we'll be able to post installs and sdks on hudson
2009-07-13T11:04:09 <tclarke> I'm also evaluating alternate dependency handling for multiple platforms
2009-07-13T11:04:17 <tclarke> I'm leaning towards opkg but I've got a litte work to do in order to get it functional on windows
2009-07-13T11:04:29 <tclarke> it should lower download times for dependencies and give us some more flexibility in dependency handling
2009-07-13T11:04:33 <tclarke> that's about all for linux right now
2009-07-13T11:06:02 <tclarke> kstreith is not able to attend today so I'll just remind everyone he's got a few prototype installations on http://builds.ballforge.net with proposed designs for splitters and auto-scrolling
2009-07-13T11:06:10 <tclarke> on to open questions
2009-07-13T11:08:07 <tclarke> kstreith and I have been blogging more often, including kstreith's Opticks 101 series
2009-07-13T11:08:13 <tclarke> if anyone would like to start their own blog, let kstreith know and he'll aggregate on the wiki
