[Sugar-devel] gst interactions crashing Turtle Art with Sensors
I recently refactored the Turtle Blocks code that is used to play multimedia files from the Journal based on the Jukebox activity. It works great and playback is much more robust as a result (See #1613). However, in the process, the sensor block code, which was not changed, now segfaults -- not every time, but often enough to make the code unusable. I use gstreamer in both cases. The presence of the sensor code does not impact the audio and video playback, but the presence of the Jukebox code, even if I do not initialize the stream, causes the segfaults. (If I slip the old code in, sensors work fine.) Anyone have any clues as to where I should begin to look? Running GDB didn't seem to tell me much about where the error is occurring... somewhere deep in gst land. -walter -- Walter Bender Sugar Labs http://www.sugarlabs.org ___ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel

I did not mean to be dismissive of the additional clarity (and empowerment and seeking-concrete-committments-ness) of your proposal. By "re-invented" I meant (keeping in mind I saw the committee as both UI maintainer and UI arbiter, as well as HIG maintainer) "constructed a group with similar goals and responsibilities".

I'm not sure if you thought I was calling for non-designers to join, but I don't see such a call. I just see a call for people that can contribute to the design team. I'd be hesitant to say the "non-designers" on that list can add nothing to a design discussion.

Splitting authority on UI changes and code changes is probably necessary because experts in both fields are very rare. The downside is that now each patch that touches the UI needs to go through two distinct stages of approval. In theory this is as simple as waiting for an email reply, but in practice almost all the UI changes we've pushed form Paraguay and Uruguay required extenuating discussions. Some proposed changes got stalled because the submitter eventually gave up trying. There was a time in which Eben was the UI dictator, Marco was the code dictator, and minor changes to the UI could happen in one day. So, splitting authority is probably ok, as long as there's a very tight communication loop between decision makers. On the other hand, establishing a UI committee and a code committee seems dangerous to me. Even high-profile committees are slow and indecisive. See for example C++ and XHTML. This doesn't mean we can't have multiple people participate in UI discussions or reviewing patches on the mailing list. Leadership is something that happens very naturally and informally in healthy projects much bigger than us. Over the last year, the Xbox Media Center (http://xbmc.org) merged about 20 patches per day. That's about 20 times the commit rate on the sugar repository! If we come up with *committees* to manage this, we'd better give up now. == On the true meaning of Dictator == Sugar Labs is fundamentally a democratic organization, because we elect an Oversight Board to represent the community. However, like in all democracies, executive powers are delegated to a certain number of ministers, officials and directors. If every decision had to go through some parliament or committee, democracies wouldn't function. My metaphor of a dictator is mostly a joke, because what I'm really advocating for is ordinary managers with the autonomy to make decisions. These managers could be appointed by the Board, if necessary, but is it really necessary? There are probably 2-3 possible candidates for the Design Team and 2-3 people for the Development Team. Why can't these people simply have a little talk on IRC and come up with a name to put in the wiki? -- // Bernie Innocenti - http://codewiz.org/ \X/ Sugar Labs - http://sugarlabs.org/ ___ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel

This is not a test for Sugar version.

If you need to test for Sugar version, use config.version ... which is
what "About my computer" uses:
from jarabe import config
print config.version
Test this on all the versions you support; I'm not sure if it works for
all versions. ;-)

Checking for /sys/power/olpc-pm is a software test, however the software
component (a kernel module that is compiled into the kernel) is not
meant to be present except on XO-1 or XO-1.5.
Walter has shown a different method.
Yet another hardware detection method can be found in hw.py in the
Record activity, and here it is below:

[Sugar-devel] Pathagar, Library Activity, etc.
I think most of you know I wrote a FLOSS Manual called "Make Your Own Sugar Activities!" What you may not know is that I've been working on a second FLOSS Manual which is about e-books and Sugar (current title "E-Book Enlightenment: Reading And Leading With One Laptop Per Child"). This book covers everything about free e-books: where to find them, how to make them, how to get them published, how to publish them yourself, how to convert bound and printed books into e-books, what Activities are available to work with e-books, etc. I even have a chapter on how to build your own book scanner. So far the book seems to be coming along OK. I designed and built a book scanner, and I've donated a bunch of books from my personal library as e-books for both the Internet Archive and Project Gutenberg. You can see the ones I donated to IA by searching for the word "nicestep". For Project Gutenberg you'll have to be patient. It takes a LONG time to get a book into Project Gutenberg. Two that *might* come out soon are "Benchley Beside Himself" by Robert C. Benchley and "The Big Sleep" by Raymond Chandler, both at PG Canada. Several other books are in the bowels of the Distributed Proofreaders pipeline. (I didn't do any kid's books because I don't own any). The thing is, I really want to have a good story about Sugar and e-books. Part of that story was going to be the Pathagar Book Server, which seems to be an abandoned project, plus the Library Activity, which I thought was a great idea that could really set Sugar apart from other e-book reading platforms. That was supposed to really come to life in version 2. Whatever happened to version 2? After working on this book for many months I've come to the conclusion that the combination of Sugar and free e-books has ENORMOUS potential. While I believe in Constructivism as much as anyone, the e-book idea is MUCH easier to sell. There's a lot of good work going on in this area, (not just by Sugar but also by the Internet Archive, Project Gutenberg, Distributed Proofreading, and DIYBookScanning) but there's also things like Pathagar and Booki that aren't quite there yet. Right now I describe Pathagar as a work in progress, but I haven't see progress for quite some time, and Library seemed dead before I even began the book. I'd like to wrap up this book soon and prepare it for Lulu. I never did write anything about Library, but I did do a chapter on Pathagar and I wonder if I should remove it. If you want to look at the book, you'll find it here: http://en.flossmanuals.net/ReadingandSugar/Introduction James Simmons ___ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel

[Sugar-devel] Eliminate Glucose co-maintainers
I propose we eliminate "co-maintainers" from Glucose[1] because they reduce the responsibility and pressure of a sole maintainer. Recall that the role of maintainer is: a) accept features [2] b) accept patches [3] c) make releases [4] Having more than one person making these decisions risks reducing the responsibility of the sole maintainer to maintain a quality release. Essentially, it's too easy to leave maintainer work if you think someone else could be helping you. Thoughts?

Create a point, rename it, erase it, and undo. The point is restored but its name is no longer displayed. DrGeo seems to remember the name but it forgets to redisplay it. It is now fixed. * #11146: Invisible items in the style menu. With the Sugar Theme, some items of the style menu are invisible: line size and line style are by default black with a black background. Solution: force to a white background in the menu. * #11285: Remove duplicated methods basicType and nodeName. basicType and nodeName methods from the MathItem class should be merged. It is a duplication for historical reason related to the xml save format. These attributes are identical except for: arc - arcCircle; ray - halfLine; value - numeric. nodeName should be removed. It makes some code (macro loading from a xml description) unnecessary complicated. * #10882: Extent file format. Extent the current file format to support: DrGeo Smalltalk scripting; DrGeo macro and extended style. Now Macro and script can be saved/load; moreover the XML format is extended to support label and vector positioning and extended style. * #10957: Creating a circle from segment and point. When creating a circle by selecting a segment first, there is a an error. I decided to remove this mechanism to create circle. I have hiatus because when creating circle, I am using the FlyPointXXXBuilder to create on the fly point and to get a live moving circle (we do not have this feature in DrGeo 1.1). * #10941: The macro and script dialogs now stay on the foreground * #10952: Wrong message in script dialog New features * #10881: Preview in the file widget. With the file dialog, we should have a preview of the user selected DrGeo file. * #10880: Icon to quit DrGeo. Currently, to quit the application, the user must access to the world Pharo menu then select quit without saving. We should have on a the task bar a button to quit directly DrGeo. I implemented a DrGreo world menu with the even more options: new figure; open a DrGeo file; quit the DrGeo environment. It can be extended in the future with more menu entries. * #11366: Creating a math item already existing but hidden. When the user defines an item already existing but hidden, DrGeo factory prevents a duplicated definition, so the user will fell DrGeo refuses to create the wished item. However the user does not have a chance to realize his item is not created because it is already defined but hidden. In this case, DrGeo should just unhidden the existing item, so the user got the expected feedback.
