Here's the link to that website :http://www.jnode.org/node/2976 21:16 < mhall119> if there is code you can re-use, you can re-use it even after you post your own 21:16 < itnet7> mhall119: maybe you can advise him on the best license to license it under 21:16 < itnet7> he was mentioning bsd 21:16 < dhillon-v10> To get my current repository, you need hg, and here's the cloning link: hg clone https://ubuntu-drivers.googlecode.com/hg/ ubuntu-drivers 21:16 < itnet7> dhillon-v10: I never got a chance to ask around 21:16 < dhillon-v10> <itnet7> that's one of the other things 21:17 < dhillon-v10> We are going to use some of the code available to use (given to us) from Jnode to get a solid understanding how devices interact with the code and then use that in making our own classifier. 21:17 < dhillon-v10> The website I mentioned above: http://www.jnode.org/node/2976 tells you how to setup git/svn access to Jnode 21:18 < mhall119> dhillon-v10: is this a full on OS? 21:18 < dhillon-v10> The git repository is 259 megabytes. (252 mgs. is just revisions) but I recommend getting that and we are going to use that in conjunction with my repo. to get started with meta-data analysis because we have access to the drivers now 21:18 < dhillon-v10> <mhall119> exactly :) 21:19 < dhillon-v10> <mhall119> that's what makes the drivers reusable, I have seen the drivers and they REALLY don't look complicated. 21:19 < dhillon-v10> alright so far any thoughts :) 21:20 mhall119 would have to look into Jnode more before I can have thoughts 21:21 < dhillon-v10> so I am going to get started tomorrow on this and yah hopefully we would be able to accomplish our goal 21:22 < dhillon-v10> thanks to mhall119 I know which direction to proceed in now, and that means I can get a task accomplished 21:22 < mhall119> good 21:22 < mhall119> dhillon-v10: are you still going to target Linux drivers? or are you going to focus on Jnode drivers now? 21:23 < dhillon-v10> <mhall119> the data from Jnode drivers tells us how code interacts with the hardware, once I understand it completely I will be able to write a better classifier for Linux drivers 21:24 < mhall119> cool 21:24 < roadmap> oh yay 21:24 < roadmap> this sounds interesting 21:24 < roadmap> I need to learn about jnode 21:24 < itnet7> cool!!! 21:24 < dhillon-v10> alright now that I have some code down: can I get some assistance for other tasks 21:25 < itnet7> did you discuss licensing? 21:25 < roadmap> Licensing? For jnode? 21:25 < roadmap> Wha..? 21:25 < itnet7> no 21:25 < dhillon-v10> <itnet7> thanks for bringing that up, guys help me out here 21:25 < roadmap> Oooh 21:25 < itnet7> for his project and the code 21:25 < roadmap> Gpl/Bsd/etc 21:25 < roadmap> gotcha 21:25 < dhillon-v10> the classes I am going to write is it okay for me to use BSD license 21:26 < mhall119> dhillon-v10: what license does Jnode use? 21:26 < roadmap> Why not GPL it? 21:26 < roadmap> Get others involved 21:26 < roadmap> so if they change it they don't run off 21:26 < dhillon-v10> <mhall119> I think they use GPL 21:26 < roadmap> With BSD someone would jack it and sell it later 21:26 < roadmap> or something 21:26 < dhillon-v10> <roadmap> alright I'll just use GPL its less complicated 21:27 < roadmap> v2 or v3 21:27 < roadmap> thats your decision 21:27 < mhall119> dhillon-v10: if you're going to use any of their code, you'd have to 21:27 < dhillon-v10> has anyone had a look at my repository yet 21:27 < roadmap> I like v2 but i really dont remember reading v3 21:27 < roadmap> dhillon-v10, url? I missed it. 21:27 < mhall119> dhillon-v10: not since you first posted it 21:27 < roadmap> Swamped over here with work and busyness 21:27 < dhillon-v10> <mhall119> yah, I'll use GPL license that's fine 21:27 < dhillon-v10> <mhall119> I did some updates 21:28 < itnet7> http://www.ubuntu.com/community/ubuntustory/licensing 21:28 < dhillon-v10> alright so I need some thoughts on how to go about designing the classifier: Is it possible to compile a separate driver 21:29 < dhillon-v10> <itnet7> thanks 21:30 < dhillon-v10> <roadmap> http://code.google.com/p/ubuntu-drivers/source/checkout then go to browse 21:31 < dhillon-v10> so is anyone here want to give any last ideas on the classifier 21:31 < dhillon-v10> *does 21:34 < itnet7> you all can finish the discussion we are going to stop the irc minutes for the meeting, feel free to continue discussing ideas 21:35 < itnet7> Thanks everyone for attending tonight! 21:35 itnet7 is still here but needs to take care of some things quickly 21:35 < dhillon-v10> that's about all I really wanted to say so :) 21:35 < dhillon-v10> thanks for comming out guys 21:35 <pak33m> itnet7: you want to do an open mic or call it quits? 21:36 < itnet7> We went over by 1/2 an hour that's good, but everyone can continue to talk we just wont add anything further to the wiki 21:37 <*> Quits ->erictee [n=eric@adsl-074-229-034-112.sip.bct.bellsouth.net] ["Leaving"] 21:38 < Michelle_Qimo> sorry to abandon ship there. I haven't eaten since 11 am. Was hungry. 21:38 dhillon-v10 is still here if any one has any questions regarding the repo. 21:38 <*> pak33m changed the topic of #ubuntu-us-fl to: END MEETING 21:38 <pak33m> next meeting nov 3
