kabev1: 4)Hw 2
salcs329: open q&a
x V DoGG x: ok
x V DoGG x: lets get started
x V DoGG x: #1.......
x V DoGG x: has everyone
downloaded and compiled the
code?
michaelwalsh327: oui
x V DoGG x: please say yes or
no
x V DoGG x: yes
gorclon1: yes
kabev1: yes
Eceguru: yes
starkiller76: yes
salcs329: yes
se2srini: no.
x V DoGG x: mike - what is oui?
michaelwalsh327: yes in french.
not that I speak french. just
being smarmy.
Eceguru: well, cut it out
Eceguru: :-)
gorclon1: mike - what is
smarmy?
x V DoGG x: srini - why not?
did you have trouble? or no
time?
se2srini: no time vivek. I'll catch
up. sorry about that team.
x V DoGG x: anyone have any
suggestions about the cvs
structure?
x V DoGG x: ok
x V DoGG x: just making sure
there weren't any problems
se2srini: ok
x V DoGG x: #1.2 Did everyone
pick roles?
x V DoGG x: yes or no
x V DoGG x: yes
gorclon1: no
michaelwalsh327: yes
gorclon1: where
michaelwalsh327:
http://wiki.cs.uiuc.edu/SEcours
e/Summary-1-29-03
michaelwalsh327: this was
discussed last week, all should
have signed up.
kabev1: yes
Eceguru: well, if no one wants
doc. manager i'll do it
salcs329: yes
gorclon1: ah, there it is.. hm MW
is everything?
se2srini: yes. I'll be document
manager and code reviewer. I
may need some suggestion on
responsibilities though.
x V DoGG x: ok....
michaelwalsh327: nah, that was
last semester - mostly signed
up to do reviews.
Eceguru: i can help, i just didn't
see anyone sign up for it
x V DoGG x: some of you may
have signed up on
x V DoGG x: the first set of roles
x V DoGG x: but perhaps we
should choose if we are going
to use the original roles or the
new RUP ones
x V DoGG x: so that we are
consistent
michaelwalsh327: I think we
should start w/ RUP and add
anythi we think we need.
salcs329: orig make more sense
to me for this proj
x V DoGG x: the original ones
seem to be a subset for the
most part.... so perhaps if we
go with the superset, we will be
better off
Eceguru: yeah, but then we'll be
signing up for many redundant
ones i think
gorclon1: that's ok I think
x V DoGG x: yeah
michaelwalsh327: we can also
eliminate redundancies.
gorclon1: right
x V DoGG x: i agree
redundancies are ok
x V DoGG x: ok
kabev1: let's have only one
person update the wiki right
now
x V DoGG x: so we don't all
modify at once
x V DoGG x: i will update
Eceguru: alright
gorclon1: go for it
x V DoGG x: you guys tell me
kabev1: ui designer
michaelwalsh327: <- has RUP
book open if defeinitions are
needed
x V DoGG x: any suggestions to
eliminate redunduncies?
salcs329: bug tracking & code
reviewer
gorclon1: maybe everybody first
sign up, and then eliminate
redunduncies
Eceguru: it just seems that there
will be some categories that
everyone wil be doing
Eceguru: like all the reviewer
roles
michaelwalsh327: that's OK,
too.
gorclon1: true
Eceguru: maybe just say all for
those
x V DoGG x: Please provide
initials
kabev1: I'll do tool specialist, but
who knows how much of a
specialist I'll be
x V DoGG x: sal?
Eceguru: i'll do test designer, tool
specialist
se2srini: what does MW mean
michaelwalsh327: Michael
Walsh
gorclon1: michael walsh I think
se2srini: ok :-)
Eceguru: use initials
salcs329: FR
kabev1: KVB: CM, UI, Tool
Specialist
x V DoGG x: How does sal map
to fr
gorclon1: lol
salcs329: sal for initial is ok
michaelwalsh327: Faisal "Sal"
Razzaq
se2srini: Is anyone deployment
manager here? if not I can be
that.
x V DoGG x: ahhh
salcs329: SAL: Bug tracking,
Code Reviewer, Developer
michaelwalsh327: (suggest
adding bug tracking role)
x V DoGG x: ok, i just updated
the page
x V DoGG x: check the changes
starkiller76: I'm I the only one
who thinks we have way too
many roles
x V DoGG x: i am now moving
the roles down
x V DoGG x: srini - what are
your initials
gorclon1: we could also switch
roles from time to time
se2srini: SK: Document
Manager, Deployment
Manager, Code Reviewer and
Implementer
kabev1: the roles tend to blur
together
michaelwalsh327: We'll remove
stuff we don't need, add what
we do,and then say why we
did it - following RUP and
modifying it to suit us like good
little SE students.
se2srini: I agree.
gorclon1: is anybody working on
wiki now?
starkiller76: no
gorclon1: k
gorclon1: my turn
michaelwalsh327: wait, I
thought Vivek was.
gorclon1: hm
gorclon1: ok
kabev1: Vivek is
x V DoGG x: yes
x V DoGG x: i am
gorclon1: oh, I already have stuff
on there
x V DoGG x: what changes
x V DoGG x: do you want to
make
x V DoGG x: i am desperatly
typing back and forth
x V DoGG x: trying to keep up
x V DoGG x: did you just make
changes?
x V DoGG x: if so, please don't
submit
gorclon1: I made changes before
gorclon1: done already
x V DoGG x: ok
gorclon1: RG
x V DoGG x: hopefully we didn't
loose anything
x V DoGG x: i am going to save
x V DoGG x: please recheck
gorclon1: ok
x V DoGG x: ok
x V DoGG x: its saved
x V DoGG x: please check
gorclon1: looks good
x V DoGG x: i tried to move the
relavent roles down
kabev1: Move CCB down also
kabev1: That is a defined role in
RUP
salcs329: Is Course Developer
== Code Developer?
michaelwalsh327: CCB =
Change Control Manager -
accoridng to text:
michaelwalsh327: "Role is
usually played by a CCB"
michaelwalsh327: Course
Developer: develops trainign
materials for end users
x V DoGG x: who wants to be
doc manager?
kabev1: ok, so we should move
it to the RUP roles then right
michaelwalsh327: That's an
undefined role. If you can
define it, someone can do it.
x V DoGG x: ok, was it you last
mike?
kabev1: Vivek, add you and me
to the Change Control manager
x V DoGG x: its kinda a
website/docs organization
role...
x V DoGG x: yes
x V DoGG x: kabe - isn't it the
same as config manager?
x V DoGG x: no
x V DoGG x: never mind
x V DoGG x: i see
gorclon1: isn't that the Website
Admin
michaelwalsh327: OK. That
sounds like "Project Reviewer"
in RUP.
starkiller76: Guys, I have to be
at work by 5 tomorrow
gorclon1: the PRA then?
gorclon1: ok
starkiller76: so I am going to log
off
x V DoGG x: PRA?
gorclon1: when does group one
want to meet?
x V DoGG x: ok
gorclon1: for homework 1
starkiller76: I will be posting a
revised project plan this week
starkiller76: we need to start
working on the code
gorclon1: PRA = Project Review
Authority
x V DoGG x: ok
x V DoGG x: i have done the
final update
starkiller76: I really have nothing
to add to all this role talk
x V DoGG x: please review
x V DoGG x: and lets move
onwards
gorclon1: HW2 meeting times?
x V DoGG x: ok
gorclon1: Wednesday night?
x V DoGG x: #1.4) Please add
the hw1 docs to the cvs
repository. Who will do that?
michaelwalsh327: you should be
asleep by now, star killer.
michaelwalsh327: I will add
change control doc
x V DoGG x: wed. is bad for me
x V DoGG x: tuesday works
x V DoGG x: tuesday @ 8 or
9pm?
x V DoGG x: kabe & dave any
comments?
gorclon1: tuesday at 9 is ok with
me
starkiller76: I don't need no
stinking sleep
Eceguru: we having one big
meeting for hw2?
starkiller76: :-)
kabev1: 9:00 is fine
gorclon1: um, I think we will
have two seperate meetings
Eceguru: that's what i thought
gorclon1: so goup two people
could meet other than
tomorrow night
x V DoGG x: i think each group
will be separate
x V DoGG x: oops spelling
x V DoGG x: ok
x V DoGG x: Vivek will add the
other doc
x V DoGG x: already done....
wow vivek is fast
x V DoGG x: kabe - what is
iterations?
x V DoGG x: that is next on the
agenda
kabev1: Just want to throw out
there when are we gonna begin
developing again and doing
iterations?
kabev1: Should we be working
on the project while we are
doing the homeworks?
x V DoGG x: comments?
michaelwalsh327: yes, definitley.
starkiller76: Yes
michaelwalsh327: (we're
scheduling elsewhere, since
you were scheduling here)
kabev1: MIke what does that
mean?
x V DoGG x: ok
x V DoGG x: pls inform when
you are done
starkiller76: I will work with
vivek to identify code that
needs to be developed next
iteration
michaelwalsh327: we are now
done.
starkiller76: Then add that to
the project plan, with target
dates
x V DoGG x: ok
x V DoGG x: good plan
x V DoGG x: we will try to get
that done by next meeting
salcs329: Where will be the
updated plan posted?
x V DoGG x: we will try to post
it by next meeting
kabev1: I think we need to begin
the process of
bugs/enhancements/CCB.
Eceguru: cool
x V DoGG x: yes.....
x V DoGG x: once we start
working on the core
functionality
x V DoGG x: any new features,
bugs, or submissions should
follow the process
kabev1: Let's do this...
x V DoGG x: ok
x V DoGG x: what is this?
kabev1: Figure out the
requirements we have
implemented and which ones
we have not then submit them
to be tracked ands assigned
Eceguru: (*theme to a-team
playing*)
michaelwalsh327: that's not
really good for change
control...
michaelwalsh327: since those
aren't changes - we were going
to use the change suystem for
feature requests (things not in
reqs) and bugs (things broken)
Eceguru: i agree
michaelwalsh327: Process for
seeing where we are doen
need to be gone through,
though.
michaelwalsh327: Then it's
PM's job to assign, track
current iteration tasks.
starkiller76: I agree with Mike
starkiller76: plus it reduces
development overhead
michaelwalsh327: The 4 of you
guys from last semester should
draw a line where you think we
are (sson), and then bugs can
be reported where we've fallen
short.
kabev1: ok, so we are not going
to use the change erquest
system as the delta from
iteration to iteration?
michaelwalsh327: no, that stuff'll
be in the project plan.
x V DoGG x: makes sense
se2srini: I think we should set up
Bugzilla first and everyone can
start reporting bugs as they
start looking at the system
salcs329: Bug tracking is already
available at our sourceforge
site
kabev1: Are we using bugzilla??
I thought we were using the SF
site for changes
michaelwalsh327: We should
finish tracking set up soon (as
in, I'll put up a sample report),
but we can't really report bugs
until we know how far we think
we are.
Eceguru: yeah, the sf site
Eceguru: its all built in
x V DoGG x: yeah
se2srini: ok
x V DoGG x: dave and i will try
to break up things by module
x V DoGG x: which will imply
the rest is completed
x V DoGG x: so everyone can
use that as a base line
Eceguru: alright
Eceguru: how long are you
thinking it'll take?
starkiller76: I think that would
be the most agile approach at
this point
x V DoGG x: <agile> - i like the
word
x V DoGG x: lets see how far
we are by monda
x V DoGG x: and go from there
x V DoGG x: i don't know how
much will be involved so i am
not making any promises
Eceguru: ok, i figure it'll take
some time
x V DoGG x: but we will try our
best
Eceguru: especially with hw as
well
x V DoGG x: yeah
x V DoGG x: for sure
michaelwalsh327: note - hw 3 is
due two weeks after hw1 - we
need to start working on
project ans classwork in
parallel.
gorclon1: some of us can focus
on the hw this week
michaelwalsh327: that is, 2
weeks after hw2 - there's not
really any hw breaks this
semester, it seems.
x V DoGG x: ok
x V DoGG x: we can move to
general q&a
salcs329: What kind of hardware
(network card, setup) we need
to test the app
Eceguru: just ethernet
starkiller76: Yep
salcs329: wireless?
Eceguru: basically an internet
connection will do
Eceguru: wireless isn't necessary
gorclon1: so we care just testing
over the internet then
Eceguru: yeah
x V DoGG x: yeah, as long as
you have a connection to the
internet, you can use the
discovery part (only thing
implemented)
Eceguru: actually, it will work
with dial up as well right?
x V DoGG x: when we begin
implementing file transfer
gorclon1: dialup should be fine
Eceguru: i have broadband so
i'm not sure
kabev1: correct Isaac
starkiller76: We need to
basically focus on content
management this semester
x V DoGG x: one will need two
computers, or two instances of
the app on one machine (not
sure how clean that is)
michaelwalsh327: "wireless" and
"linux" were just buzzwords to
get us in the door, guys.
Salesguys.
Whaddayagonnado?
Eceguru: hey, it works with
those both
gorclon1: lol
Eceguru: it supports many
platforms
michaelwalsh327: (just playing)
salcs329: will two computers on
a LAN (not connected to
internet) work
starkiller76: When we first
wrote the vision statement
Eceguru: i don't think so
starkiller76: The project was
going to be developed in C++
Eceguru: you need acess to the
rendezous nodes i think?
salcs329: thanks
starkiller76: Linux and wireless
were more important at that
point
michaelwalsh327: Isaac and
Dave, I didn't mean to give you
a hard time.
Eceguru: its ok
starkiller76: I know
kabev1: ok, anything else?
starkiller76: I just want to limit
any confusion
x V DoGG x: did the groups
pick which tools they are going
to use?
x V DoGG x: if not, i would
propose rejava for my group
kabev1: revjava it is
x V DoGG x: sorry revjava
michaelwalsh327: In terms of
removing roles, I was thinking
of getting rid of Business
Designer Business-Model
Reviewer Business-Process
Analyst Capsule Designer and
Database Designer. Any
objections?
kabev1: nope
x V DoGG x: nope
gorclon1: no
starkiller76: none from me
se2srini: no
michaelwalsh327: (You guys
can use rejava if you want, but
you still have to help us find
other tools)
x V DoGG x: mike - please
update with your changes
x V DoGG x: the new roles page
is linked off of the main project
page
starkiller76: I will email you any
other tools I find Mike
kabev1: I think everyone should
spend some time tomorrow
and search for tools
starkiller76: Yes
michaelwalsh327: Have you
folks used Revjava before? Or
just saw it from RJ's post?
starkiller76: Never heard of it
before
Eceguru: never heard of it
salcs329: no
gorclon1: never heard of it myself
kabev1: I think Vivek's used it
x V DoGG x: mike - here is
another metrics tool:
http://www.hypercisioninc.com
/jmetra/jmetradoc.html
se2srini: I just searched google!
:-)
kabev1: alright so let's find tools,
group 1 bring it to the meeting
tomorrow
kabev1: anything else for tonight?
x V DoGG x: nope
se2srini: none
michaelwalsh327: Oh,m I have
somethign:
gorclon1: ok
x V DoGG x: yes
salcs329: one more ques?
michaelwalsh327: Some of our
wiki page names might be
construed as polluting the
namespace.
se2srini: mike or anyone else,
did you add me to the sf
project
x V DoGG x: true, i was thinking
about that
michaelwalsh327: To respect
other projects, present and
future, we should prefix our
pages with "LinuxWifi:" or
something
kabev1: what's you id again, I'll
add it
x V DoGG x: although no one
has complained
x V DoGG x: and it is only
"recommended" that we prefix
se2srini: kattragadda
michaelwalsh327: yea, but do
you want to be a polluter, even
if no one complains about it?
x V DoGG x: i think we should
move all of the docs to sf
x V DoGG x: anyways
michaelwalsh327: You'll know...
salcs329: Q. What editor do you
use to edit java code? Just
notepad?
x V DoGG x: its not trivial to
change the page, without
loosing all the changes is it?
michaelwalsh327: You can
download Visual Age for Java
for free from IBM, but it's a
bear.
x V DoGG x: i use visual cafe,
but its $1000 if you want to
shell it out
x V DoGG x: thanks motorola
michaelwalsh327: We can't
change exisiting pages, but I
thik we should have the prefix
in the future. You can keep it
out of your hyperlinks y saying
michaelwalsh327:
[Roles>LinuxWifi:Roles]
x V DoGG x: ok
x V DoGG x: cool
x V DoGG x: i am cool with it
kabev1: ok your in
starkiller76: anyone who does
not have a visual java
development suite
starkiller76: should check out
SunONE a
kabev1: alright guys I'm gonna
get going
starkiller76: availible for free
download on the Sun Java Site
salcs329: thanks..
x V DoGG x: me too
kabev1: I think there's a free trial
of Borland JBuilder
se2srini: ok. thanks dave. are we
done for today
x V DoGG x: i will put the log up
x V DoGG x: i have decided
against summarizing
michaelwalsh327: i'm done.
x V DoGG x: since everyone
seems to be attending
starkiller76: here is the link for
Sun ONE
x V DoGG x: and i don't really
have a ton of spare time
x V DoGG x: if someone else
wants to... feel free
kabev1: out!!
