If you cant find somebody come downstairs
Um you need to touch the file before you commit it Otherwise CBS wont let
you comrnit it So itll only let you commit it if the files been touched Um at the
bottom of the page is list of statistical information that shows us where we are
There are 9068 to sign This was 9300 yesterday so there are things that are
coming out of the modules
checked the N2000 files last night that arent reflected there
Urn... LAUGHTER
Up...scroll..
Thats the screen Lloyd
No actually yesterday...these files contain the NPL There was about 1000
yesterday that had the NPL and now theres..

think there was about 2000 yesterday that had the NPL There should be about
4000 today
remember there being about 1000 yesterday
You know what We can figure this out
So the unsanitized copyright is warning that maybe its not it has the NPL in
it and another copyright
Untyped files to be less than 1000 by Thursday by Friday morning
And whats in it for us
You guys get donuts either way
Ok
Youre gonna get donuts whether its me or Michael who buys them
Its dozen donuts Its up on the board there
dozen donuts
Wait minute If Im buying the donuts want to go to the really affordable place
Buy bunch of donuts and one bite will be taken out of each donut
It will be much better if we have Lloyd buy the donuts like those anchovy paste
filled ones
think we should get dozen if Lloyds right and dozen if Michaels wrong
right
Ok
iC
Lets see You change the superpulse use the.. theres tool that Viii Keitiper
wrote that lets you..
Ownership

Or if you dont believe it..

Change the ownership file And you put owner colon the owner name and thats
the way the tool will look for it And heres all the directory Put owner colon and
then the name OK
-j So something saw in the two or three times that is bad is uh when was going
through the files and replacing the Put the copyright notice here with the copyright
notice people had put that in some files that already had copyrights on them Like
like theres be like put the Netscape copyright notice here and then on the next
line like the BSD copyright or an Apple copyright and and..
That would be bad
Well okay so that would be bad but if you twist your brain around you can kind
of understand what someone was thinking Well this file started out being by this
person over here but then we modified it so its ours too Well dont even
bother going there If theres if theres license on the file already that lets us
redistribute it just use that license Its good enough We dont need to get in
world where we have to figure out whether these two licenses are actually
compatible So..
Were shipping the first code which contains many files and each file has its own
individual license Thats essentially whats going on here
Yes
And we all know that thats whats going on
Ok so...you can sign files with the preclose because they dont actually modify the
RCS files Im sorry it doesnt modify the source files so the build shouldnt be
affected
If youre about to do big dump and the tree is the close please mail the release
team just so we dont have two cows
But if youre just bumping the version to 2-0 like it shouldnt you shouldnt even
notice that right

Bonsai will tell us
Hes ready to go
Ive been ready for weeks Laughter
Oh sure Alan rub it in
Ok So thats the only example we have to wony about Mostly Javas going out
so that shouldnt be an issue going removing
Right right And if Im this thing is just using urn the core client stuff and its
not using the stuff thats used to close the
tag with the separate tag and Im
assuming that theres gonna be very little of that the tiEthe buil4 and so there
may some more stuff that comes on..
So the way you do this is you pull the modules and then look at the files
Yes
So if you come out of your modules you wont be on if youre not in the modules
youre not on the list
Yes Oh thats the other thing right If you have something that shouldnt be in
the modules mail me will what will do is will remove it from the modules
for you and then will sit you in front of Tinderbox and make you watch
Tinderbox until it clears cause its check-in ok And Ill be right out to help
you
Lots of fun What happens if..uh. and know the answer to this but Im just
asking this to be stupid
This is one of those rhetorical questions..
What happens if we do dash or whatever on it and we decide oh darn we
have to make another change to this file or fill in the blank reason What doom
happens
No doom happens You just check in Everybody relax
Indistinguishable conversation followed by laughter

.t Hal broke my tree indistinguishable dialog everyone talking at once
Do we really need Links to work though
You know Links working would be really interesting feature
jy-
Whats your ETA
The thing that happened was that we did the merge and Links didnt work
We think that the Mazila thread is forked and so thats what were trying to track
down
do you think its something you did or something..
.We think its landing in Java script Sometimes things would land there over the
weekend As we merged them in we saw this
Java script What the hell was.
Java Script inhorked the Mazila thread and the Mazila thread is forked..

----C swore up and down the second that they had information was going to go
and whip whatever engineers neededto be whipped in their direction so that we
could get people all over this baby
So you just gotta seek fame and fortune Youre gonna help us with Windows and
make sure that that keeps moving along So were trying the thing this the thing
that Im stressing is its not that were not moving Were actually moving and
being more cautious We not only do build we do build and test and then if
we see problem we dont land it And so its making everyone feel nervous
think but you should understand that we are methodically. you follow me
Cut to the chase Ok what time are you gonna do it because whole bunch of
people..
Did not say thats what he was gonna wanna know
Well no see the trees open right now so if you open the --- its
counterproductive right
TA
Yeah but the people are doing some fairly complex things now and if you catch us
amid say the MAC projects thats gonna screw up Gordon
Well what we need is we need at least two hour lead time right Like
yesterday we need two hour lead time where we can say the tree is closing at
2pm
