17:38 celeron55 http://c55.me/temp/mt_survey/
17:38 celeron55 i whipped up this today
17:39 celeron55 (still adding a few things)
17:39 celeron55 (not sure if useful)
17:47 celeron55 hmm, quite done now
18:12 celeron55 renamed still http://c55.me/temp/mt_dev_survey/
18:22 celeron55 I request every developer-ish person to fill this long-looking but actually short thingy: http://c55.me/temp/mt_dev_survey/

18:31 hmmmm hold on, what is the "map generator modding" patch?
18:33 celeron55 you shouldn't discuss but rather just answer what you know
18:33 celeron55 it's kind of a combined test and an opinion poll
18:35 hmmmm snow is part of the snow biome flag in my mapgen too
18:35 hmmmm i need to seriously get done with my stuff faster, because now there are all these other patches/mods that duplicate effort and do it very differently from what i imagined
18:37 celeron55 it's probably not really about speed; it's about organization
18:37 hmmmm i have school to deal with too
18:37 celeron55 organization of people working on the things
18:47 rubenwardy left #minetest-dev
18:52 hmmmm unrelated, but, later on i'm planning on writing a command line "mtgenmap" utility that'll generate the map outside of the game and spit it out to a map.sqlite file
18:54 hmmmm you know how a couple weeks ago i was asking about generating a specified amount of map before entering a new world?  with this it could be as simple as running this program and communicating the status (% completed or w/e) with pipes and then on exit it'll start the game
19:20 OldCoder celeron55, what is the mechanism used to respond to the survey?
19:20 OldCoder Direct edit?
19:21 OldCoder I'll comment as I become more qualified; I am starting to gather information
19:21 OldCoder celeron55, ^
19:21 celeron55 i don't understand what you are asking :P
19:21 OldCoder Abbout this part:
19:21 OldCoder <celeron55> I request every developer-ish person to fill this long-looking but actually short thingy:
19:22 celeron55 i know you are talking about it, but what you are saying doesn't make sense
19:22 OldCoder celeron55, I regret this, then. Please excuse me.
19:24 celeron55 just take a moment to answer it so that i know the people around better and can figure out who to put in charge in order to let development continue smoothly
19:25 OldCoder celeron55, I am wondering if we are discussing different issues. I see an outline of possible changes to the software. I have started to gather information about exactly this. You seem to talking about something else. Please excuse my inability to follow what you are saying.
19:25 OldCoder *seem to be
19:25 celeron55 wtf 8)
19:26 celeron55 why are you "gathering information" about something
19:28 OldCoder celeron55, I've been gathering information about mods, ideas, etc., for a little while now. To help. This is what I've done for decades. I will return here after I consider. My situation is that I am productive but very tired. More tired than you might understand. Things like "wtf" related to communication are difficult for me. I communicate quite well with many people though.
19:28 OldCoder left #minetest-dev
19:29 hmmmm WTF
19:31 celeron55 .....uuuuuum
19:34 thexyz well, his manner of speaking is.. interesting
19:37 hmmmm erm, it seems like he's trying to say that he's already been gathering feedback about where minetest needs to go et cetera
19:56 sfan5[iPod] joined #minetest-dev
19:57 celeron55 well, i am not gathering feedback; i am gathering information about people 8)
19:59 sfan5[iPod] :D
20:00 hmmmm stalker...!
20:00 sfan5[iPod] if you choose someone, do they get access to both repos or only if
20:00 sfan5[iPod] they checked the lua or c++ checkbox
20:00 hmmmm 'if you choose someone' - he has to choose someone or else minetest will be practically dead
20:01 sfan5[iPod] thats not what i ments
20:01 sfan5[iPod] *meant
20:21 celeron55 sfan5[iPod]: i haven't even thought about it like that
