I don't have a Windows machine any more, and I haven't played with Autocell since I was twelve, but I think it worked roughly like this: A ruleset in Autocell was composed of multiple rules, each of which had a starting cell color, a set of neighbors, and an ending cell color. So Conway's life would be something like this: Start: white Neighbors: 3 black, 5 white End: black Start: black Neighbors: 4 black, 4 any End: white Start: black Neighbors: 7 white, 1 any End: white Anything that didn't match one of those rules would stay unchanged for the next generation, so a black with 3 black and 5 white neighbors would stay black. Autocell supported multiple cell colors (up to 256 I think), but I'd like my activity to stay at two colors both for simplicity of rules and so it works better if the screen is monochrome. ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel

Hi, Ross, > I think it would be neat to have a dedicated activity for it, with the > ability to save interesting patterns in the journal, and so forth. I'm not sure if a dedicated activity is neater or not (I know people who would say "yes"), but it is surely possible with the Etoys version to save interesting patterns in the Journal. Different rules, different ways to make the initial state different colors, more variables, more states, etc., etc., can be all packaged in a Journal entry. The logic to count the neighboring on-cells is end-user accessible, and it is packaged as well so that the user can even change that. (After all, I just wrote it while I was waiting for an appointment at a clinic. That means anybody can just do it if you have an XO.)

I thought a rule-editting system in which you can specify the before and after state visually is nice, and also the concise description people use would be also nice for different audience. But of course there will be much more different ways, I'm sure. Thank you! -- Yoshiki ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel

Sugar on Slackware 12.0
I just wanted to report that I've sucessfully got sugar built and running on Slackware 12. Of course there are a lot of dependencies to install (gstreamer and friends, some gnome libs) and some library to update if you start from a fresh Slackware installation. But sugar is not so hard to build in distros other than Fedora and Ubuntu, really. I did: sugar-jhbuild update sugar-jhbuild built and then I compiled and installed the missing libraries and the python modules. The most tricky part was Xephyr, which was missing. Since I didn't want to mess with my xorg installation I just took xorg-server-1.3.0.0 source (which is the version that ships with Slackware 12) and compiled it with: ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/xserver-xephyr --exec-prefix=/usr/local/xserver-xephyr --enable-kdrive --enable-xephyr && make && make install Then I made a symbolic link to xephyr in /usr/local/bin.

That reminds me of a version in Etoys. http://dev.laptop.org/~yoshiki/etoys/LifeGame.006.pr The nice thing about Etoys version is that you can edit the rule dynamically by drag-and-drop while the simulation is running. You can just try "what-if" simualtions whenever you like. On some installations, it may run very slowly; a plugin for accerating the particle system is missing in the VM.

Yes, some people have not been asking for approvals as they should; update.1 is further from joyride than it ought to be. I've asked Dennis to get me a diff between joyride and update.1 so I can figure out what's left. We really need the new workflow features for trac to help our visibility into the state of things, and Noah is working on them for us, but it won't happen in time for Update.1. Also, uploads for picking up translations are due about now, per Sayamindu's mail; getting to RC1 requires a timely response by people doing that (without uploading activities with tons of unapproved features, I'm *hoping*). > > Jim - are there a bunch of things that should be in update1 that > haven't moved from joyride yet?

Security Certificates
The browser correctly identifies a certificate that doesn't match the URL. However, there needs to be a way to continue with the page regardless of the certificate's validity. In other words, it should be a warning, as in normal browsers and not a ban. The invalid certificate may occur as a result of a self-generated certificate and could be valid. Thanks.

Re: Code freeze
Thanks for doing this work, Marco! I want to add an Update1 blocker, 5671, which is how to get a developer key. In the previous versions there was a link from the laptop to get a developer key (from the 'about your XO' in the browser)... I can't find that link in the most recent joyrides. Also, we need an Update1 release that includes a lot more stuff from joyride so we can be testing the update1 rather than Joyride. Jim - are there a bunch of things that should be in update1 that haven't moved from joyride yet? Do you think it will be possible to get an Update1 build this week with as much stuff from joyride as was slated to get in?

Re: Login as root on 667
Marco, If this is the same issue that I just encountered in Joyride, then the login is now 'olpc' instead of 'root'. No password. Sudo should work (i believe).

Code freeze
Hello, according to the roadmap we are now in code freeze for Update.1. I went through the Sugar core tickets and assigned to Retriage those I don't think it's worth or possible to fix for Update.1. Here are the remaining issues: http://dev.laptop.org/query?status=assigned&status=new&status=reopened&component=sugar&component=browse-activity&component=journal-activity&component=datastore&component=presence-service&component=read-activity&component=gtk-theme&order=priority&milestone=Update.1&col=id&col=summary&col=status&col=owner&col=type Jim, Kim, I'm not sure how strong you want the freeze to be... Can you please go through the list (they are only 20 tickets) and make sure there aren't any you *don't* want to fix for Update.1?
