| 11:04:22 | darkblue_B: | mloskot - any word on cascaded union in GEOS? |
| 11:06:38 | mloskot: | darkblue_B: I've not heard |
| 11:06:43 | mloskot: | you need to catch pramsey |
| 11:06:55 | darkblue_B: | ok, I sent him an email |
| 11:07:02 | mloskot: | ok |
| 11:07:10 | darkblue_B: | I think Martin David may live in Berkeley now ! |
| 11:07:18 | darkblue_B: | in which case I'd like to meet him |
| 11:07:22 | darkblue_B: | Davis |
| 11:07:43 | mloskot: | darkblue_B: I don't think so, Martin and Paul are from Victoria, BC |
| 11:07:49 | darkblue_B: | hmmm |
| 11:08:06 | darkblue_B: | ok, well lots of M Davis in the world |
| 11:08:16 | darkblue_B: | thx |
| 11:08:36 | mloskot: | :- ) |
| 15:24:23 | phosphor_08: | anyone know of a good postgis vmware image? |
| 15:27:42 | darkblue_B: | hey phosphor_08 |
| 15:27:58 | darkblue_B: | install elusive, eh? |
| 15:37:33 | phosphor_08: | yeah |
| 15:38:45 | phosphor_08: | think i've gotten it installed on my local machine, MacOS 10.5.4, but not on the server side |
| 15:39:40 | phosphor_08: | it'd be great if there were some virtual images floating around |
| 15:40:54 | phosphor_08: | seems like the recommended OS is Debian? |
| 16:40:04 | darkblue_B: | phosphor_08: I use Debian/Ubuntu.. had good luck with it |
| 16:40:25 | darkblue_B: | just upgraded to Pg 8.3/PostGIS 1.3.3 last week |
| 16:40:44 | darkblue_B: | worked fine.. though I admit I have been through it a few times now |
| 22:28:55 | simgislab: | hi, whom can I talk to about documentation? We've finished translating it and there are a couple of questions I'd like to ask about. |
| 22:35:22 | mleslie: | Ask away, though I expect most people that could help will be asleep. |
| 22:41:47 | simgislab: | we've translated docs for 1.3.3, and looking into updating it, but don't know though how to get a list of changes or something like that |
| 22:43:01 | mleslie: | Do you mean a list of feature changes between 1.3.3 and some other version, or a list of changes to the doc xml? |
| 22:43:52 | simgislab: | docs |
| 22:46:09 | mloskot: | simgislab: do you use SVN? |
| 22:47:10 | mloskot: | simgislab: IMO, the best option is to use SVN and compare doc subdirectory between tags |
| 22:47:12 | mloskot: | http://svn.refractions.net/postgis/tags/ |
| 22:47:13 | sigq: | Title: Revision 2915: /tags ( at svn.refractions.net ) |
| 22:47:15 | simgislab: | a little bit, did find a link to it on the website |
| 22:47:41 | mleslie: | Something like this seems to work: svn diff http://svn.refractions.net/postgis/branches/1.3/doc http://svn.refractions.net/postgis/tags/1.3.3/doc |
| 22:47:42 | sigq: | Title: Revision 2915: /branches/1.3/doc ( at svn.refractions.net ) |
| 22:47:52 | simgislab: | ah, I see |
| 22:48:43 | simgislab: | mloskot: sounds good, I was thinking about something like that! |
| 22:49:05 | mloskot: | simgislab: if you are not experienced with SVN you will have to read about branch/tag and diff in the SVN book |
| 22:49:05 | mloskot: | http://svnbook.red-bean.com/ |
| 22:49:08 | sigq: | Title: Version Control with Subversion ( at svnbook.red-bean.com ) |
| 22:50:37 | simgislab: | mloskot: got it, so as I understand, we shouldn't update to 1.4 ( on the web ) until it is released, right? |
| 22:51:19 | mloskot: | simgislab: I'm not sure what's the exact strategy in postgis ( i'm not directly involved in PostGIS project, but GEOS ) |
| 22:51:30 | mloskot: | though, I suppose the web follows stable release |
| 22:52:05 | simgislab: | mloskot: ok, just didn't want to update it twice |
| 22:52:54 | simgislab: | and there is no 1.4 under link you gave, as I can see |
| 22:54:06 | mloskot: | 1.4 = current trunk |
| 22:54:19 | mloskot: | trunk = main development branch |
| 22:54:40 | mloskot: | http://svn.refractions.net/postgis/trunk/ |
| 22:54:41 | sigq: | Title: Revision 2915: /trunk ( at svn.refractions.net ) |
| 22:55:03 | mloskot: | simgislab: you need to check the svn book to understand what is tag, branch and trunk :- ) |
| 22:57:08 | simgislab: | mloskot: sorry, I will, no experience in svn, trying to help translating and learning all other stuff along the way |
| 22:57:56 | mloskot: | no need to sorry, I'm just suggestion IMO best way to maintain updates of docs, sources, etc. |
| 22:58:17 | mloskot: | you can also download old and new directories |
| 22:58:26 | mloskot: | and then run diff -R command to compare directories |
| 22:58:40 | mloskot: | and you will see what's updated |
| 22:59:04 | mloskot: | dir -R olddoc newdoc > update.diff |
| 22:59:23 | mloskot: | and then investigate update.diff file |
| 22:59:33 | mloskot: | This is another option that does not rely on svn |
| 23:01:22 | simgislab: | mloskot: I'll try that, thanks |
