OARnet

Mesh Beta

See blogs.secondlife.com

Bradley and Joel have made a lot of clothes for the Bookstore.

Merry is helping get items in the vendor and continuing to work on the User Guide.

Alex reported that he is working in the scripted monitor board and adding copyright notices to all POCCENT boards

Ryon is working on Building Aids - including prefab magaprims; seeking SALT HUD at Marketplace; partial system generator; Open Source Texture Organizer

Linden Lab bought XStreet

later we may add scultpies to Bookstore offerings

We need camera controllers and posing stands.

Blender?

**September 24, 2010** Chair: Fleep Attendees: Alex09, Ringo, Bartelby, Axel, Merry - Skype meeting - UCSL Bookstore Fleep shared with us the packaging for our Bookstore merchandise... Ringo and Bartleby reported 10 new avatars each plus clothing. Items are nearly ready to send to the UCSLLC account. Remember to prepare a notecard for each package. First list contents. Then explain use.

<span style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">Long received a DMCA complaint about an object (a skin) that he had acquired at a freebie site that the distributor did not have the right to distribute. This is a prime example of WHY we like to create our own avatars, clothing, furniture, and other objects. We must be certain we have the right to objects we use or distribute. There must be no question of <span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: initial; url(http: //www.wikispaces.com/i/a.gif); background-origin: initial; background-position: 100% 50%; background-repeat: no-repeat no-repeat; cursor: pointer; padding-right: 10px;">[|__provenance__], or whether or not something is included in creative commons or GPL. Don't use any freebies unless they are specifically licensed for reuse.

Typical uses may cover any <span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: initial; url(http: //www.wikispaces.com/i/a.gif); background-origin: initial; background-position: 100% 50%; background-repeat: no-repeat no-repeat; cursor: pointer; padding-right: 10px;">[|__artifact__] found in <span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: initial; url(http: //www.wikispaces.com/i/a.gif); background-origin: initial; background-position: 100% 50%; background-repeat: no-repeat no-repeat; cursor: pointer; padding-right: 10px;">[|__archaeology__] , any object in <span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: initial; url(http: //www.wikispaces.com/i/a.gif); background-origin: initial; background-position: 100% 50%; background-repeat: no-repeat no-repeat; cursor: pointer; padding-right: 10px;">[|__paleontology__]  , certain documents (such as <span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: initial; url(http: //www.wikispaces.com/i/a.gif); background-origin: initial; background-position: 100% 50%; background-repeat: no-repeat no-repeat; cursor: pointer; padding-right: 10px;">[|__manuscripts__]  ), or copies of printed books. In most fields, the primary purpose of provenance is to confirm or gather evidence as to the time, place, and -- when appropriate -- the person responsible for the creation, production, or discovery of the object. This will typically be accomplished by tracing the whole history of the object up to the present. Comparative techniques, expert opinions, and the results of various kinds of scientific tests may also be used to these ends, but establishing provenance is essentially a matter of documentation.

Everyone needs to read these right away, please, and get started following tweets from Linden Lab, one another, and the various individuals Fleep has specified so we have a stream of information about Second Life, the metaverse, and OpenSim. Use the guide to set up your profile!

<span style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">Fleep follows tweets with a Twitter HUD in SL, but says she believes something newer might be available. (Let's be on the lookout for new Twitter HUDs!) Update: Twitter's new authentication scheme has broken most of the tools previously used to send and receive tweets in Second Life. Until an alternative is found, use the web interface at twitter.com.

<span style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">Plan to meet in Skype next week. (We plan to use Skype as a backup for SL voice.)

Most are initially dressed in freebies, but Joel is already working on creating original clothing for them.

Items we want to "sell" through the bookstore must be packaged with 1.) an appropriate name 2.) a notecard (packing list by layer, basic instructions for use, a landmark) 3.) a photo for the box. Please name your avatars. If you need any assistance word-smithing, feel free to ask MJ for help.

(Staffing note: Vishnu is continuing, but Stephen will be leaving. BJ will be hiring someone else to work with us.) Alex will meet with Josh about the special board with multiple functions for POCCENT.

The projects are available. Staff must be well trained and highly professional. <span style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">Deb Brandenburg (FTRC, across the hall) will be providing us with detailed info. about the Key Card Access to Zimmer. <span style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">Learning, Communications, and other processes for the UCSL team are still in development.

There should be NO objects named "Object" in any of our builds. <span style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">Fleep suggested using the "Source Prim" method for ensuring that your builds are named and set with the proper permissions. <span style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">- Be sure that you have the right group tag active BEFORE you begin to build anything <span style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">- Create a prim of each shape on the ground near your build site <span style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">- Name the source prims with the starting tag for your project.

This way EVERYTHING you create from that source prim copy will be properly named and have the right permissions set. <span style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">**Follow Up Items:** <span style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">(All) Check build sites for improperly named or incorrect permissions and fix them!

Orientation Area **- Since classes will be starting in Second Life in the next couple weeks, we want to be sure that at least the most crucial orientation information is ready for them. Josh will focus on completing the steamboat in the next week or so and leave the town square area till later. We also discussed changing some of the content on the steamboat to accelerate learning about the most core skills students need before they head off to class:** <span style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span style="font: normal normal normal 17px/normal Arial;"> * Area 1 - Navigation: **Josh will add a bouncing arrow and add some text somewhere that says "Click Here!" to teach users to click on the rotating information signs. Chris likes the green arrow graphic used on the sign boards, and will think of some filler information to use to replace the pictures and graphics. We would need to get permissions to use others' images or at the very least attribute it to the source and we probably don't have time to do that before we need the orientation area to be finished.** <span style="font: normal normal normal 17px/normal Arial;"> * Area 2 - Flying: **Josh will move the map signboards to the Town Hall building and move the information about how to fly into the second area of the boat. The task can be to have the user fly up to see the captain's wheel, and since that room is pretty contained, we can be fairly confident users won't fly off and get lost.** <span style="font: normal normal normal 17px/normal Arial;"> * Area 3 - Camera Control: **The purpose of this room is to teach users that their camera view is separate from their avatar's position. Need to add some directional/signage info so folks know which signs to read first (and whatever convention we use should be consistent throughout the entire orientation area). Need to add a sign about the "View > Camera Controls" before asking users to try to activate the fountain. Need to switch the signs near the periscope so the instructions to use the pose ball are viewed first. Then, the instructions to "Stand Up" can be visible in the view they see when they use the periscope.** <span style="font: normal normal normal 17px/normal Arial;"> * Area 4 - Communications: **We'll move the items currently in this area into the old "Post Office" building which will be changed to a library. This room will focus on the core communications skills - local chat, IM, group chat, and voice chat. These skills are essential for students to know before they attend a class in SL.** <span style="font: normal normal normal 17px/normal Arial;"> * Area 5 - Inventory: **We'll switch some things around on the bottom level of the boat and move the inventory section to area 5. The key things to communicate are how to receive things to inventory, where it goes, how to find stuff, and how to get it out of your inventory.** <span style="font: normal normal normal 17px/normal Arial;"> * Area 6 - Troubleshooting: **The last area on the steamboat will talk about how to improve performance of SL on slow machines, such as:** Checking to make sure your machine meets the minimum requirements **Make sure you have a compatible video card** Edit > Preferences > Graphics > turn down draw distance or uncheck some other options to improve performance <span style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">We'll get back to working on the Town Square area once we have the "crash course" basics done on the steamboat.

POC-CENT Project -** We learned this week that the POC-CENT team will be hosting NIH for the first site visit in **February** in addition to another site visit in **March.** This changes our timeline substantially and we need to add additional resources to the project to meet the new milestones. Chris will place an ad to hire more students next week, and will ask Mary Jane to start working on the POC-CENT project asap since that's become the top priority to prepare for the site visit in February. Long will continue to work on the programming, and Mary Jane can begin building out the surgery suite and urgent care center scenes for station 2.

The finish area should be turned into a park or something similar rather than containing extra games and also include teleports to more advanced areas. <span style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">We scheduled a walk-through of the orientation area for next meeting time. <span style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">**Counseling Center Animtions:** Alex09 <span style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">Customer is anxious about completion date. Alex doesn't have a hard completion date for the project, but can work all day from now until school resumes. Josh also agreed to help after completion of the orientation area since he has some experience with the use of Poser. <span style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">**POC-CENT:** Long is out of the office today, we met yesterday to discuss progress, have back up objects and textures from Dustin, project progressing behind schedule but doing the best we can with the given input from the POC-CENT team. <span style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">Better feedback from recent meetings has been helpful on the project.
