18:35:51 * [GregNoel](GregNoel) is no longer marked as being away
18:38:37 * stevenknight (n=[stevenkn@c-69-181-234-150.hsd1.ca.comcast.net](mailto:stevenkn@c-69-181-234-150.hsd1.ca.comcast.net)) has joined #scons
18:38:46 <stevenknight> hello
18:38:52 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> Hi, stevenknight; Gary's not here yet
18:39:04 <stevenknight> okay
18:39:16 <stevenknight> bdbaddog said he'd probably show up but would be a little late too
18:51:10 * bdbaddog (n=[bdeegan@adsl-71-142-75-191.dsl.pltn13.pacbell.net](mailto:bdeegan@adsl-71-142-75-191.dsl.pltn13.pacbell.net)) has joined #scons
18:51:18 <bdbaddog> Good evening all!
18:52:05 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> Hi, Bill; Steven's in and out; Gary's not here yet.
18:52:35 <bdbaddog> K.
19:04:37 * garyo-home (n=[chatzill@209-6-158-38.c3-0.smr-ubr1.sbo-smr.ma.cable.rcn.com](mailto:chatzill@209-6-158-38.c3-0.smr-ubr1.sbo-smr.ma.cable.rcn.com)) has joined #scons
19:04:59 <garyo-home> Hi guys
19:05:10 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> Hi, welcome; we're all here.
19:05:16 <garyo-home> great!
19:05:30 <garyo-home> Sorry I was late.
19:05:34 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> np
19:06:27 <garyo-home> So, what's on the agenda this evening?
19:06:28 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> Are we ready to go? I think 2294 is up.
19:07:40 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> Gary, what did you find?
19:08:12 <garyo-home> I just tried his testcase on the scons.org machine, and it's reproducible.
19:08:25 <garyo-home> Didn't go beyond that.
19:08:19 <stevenknight> garyo-home: disk space is fine
19:08:40 <stevenknight> i checked our stats and we're well w/in limits now
19:09:03 <garyo-home> stevenknight: thanks.
19:08:48 <garyo-home> I could probably fix it, but I think unless it's a regression we should push it out, it's not that serious.
19:09:13 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> I'm puzzled why no output shows up for me; that's really strange.
19:09:23 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> but yes, I agree that it's a lower priority.
19:09:28 <garyo-home> Where did you try it?
19:09:34 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> On my Mac.
19:10:00 <garyo-home> SConf is a black art to me.
19:10:07 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> Ditto.
19:10:11 <stevenknight> Ditto ditto
19:10:25 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> Why do you think I want to replace it?
19:10:34 <stevenknight> +1 to that
19:10:41 <garyo-home> But I bet it wouldn't be that hard to debug. Anyway, 2.1 or so, p3?
19:10:50 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> 2.x p4
19:11:02 <garyo-home> fine w me too.
19:11:04 <stevenknight> 2.x p4 is good by me
19:11:16 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> done. On to the schedule?
19:11:23 <stevenknight> 2294: 2.x p4 done
19:11:48 <garyo-home> ok, sounds fine.
19:11:53 <stevenknight> schedule first, then 2005q1?
19:12:02 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> yes.
19:12:05 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> Here's the schedule report card:
19:12:05 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> The theory---
19:12:05 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> 1.2 has been released, as of 21 December.
19:12:05 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> A checkpoint was due 29 December.
19:12:05 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> A checkpoint was due 12 January.
19:12:05 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> A release candidate was due 19 January.
19:12:05 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> 1.3 was due 26 January.
19:12:05 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> We should be releasing checkpoints toward 2.0.
19:12:05 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> The actuality---
19:12:05 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> There is still one bug not yet cleared from 1.2.
19:12:05 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> A checkpoint was released on 13 January.
19:12:05 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> Another checkpoint is needed for VS revamp, yes?
19:12:05 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> Some soak time (two weeks), then a release candidate.
19:12:06 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> The official release of 1.3 a week later.
19:12:06 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> Three weeks and change, minimum; odds are 1.3 will be in March.
19:12:06 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> Comments?
19:12:27 <stevenknight> yes re: vs_revamp checkpoint
19:12:44 <stevenknight> [GregNoel](GregNoel): sounds about right
19:13:02 <garyo-home> I'm in favor of vs_revamp asap.
19:13:08 <bdbaddog> +1
19:13:25 <stevenknight> i'm fixing broken tests as fast as i can
19:13:28 <garyo-home> Greg: what's the 1.2 uncleared bug?
19:13:52 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> Belongs to Steven; didn't look beyond that.
19:14:38 <stevenknight> it's a scons.org bug re: adding scalable logos
19:14:38 <garyo-home> umm, it's 2058, scalable SVG logo for SCons.
19:14:46 <stevenknight> after making sure they're licensed appropriately
19:14:52 <stevenknight> i tried to reset it from 1.2 to 1.3 but couldn't
19:15:06 <stevenknight> i presume because of the scons.org component
19:15:20 <garyo-home> i see what you mean.
19:15:26 <garyo-home> ok, minor issue anyway.
19:15:29 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> huh?
19:15:50 <garyo-home> there's no 1.3 in the dropdown list.
19:16:12 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> scons.org shouldn't have a 1.2 component
19:16:27 <garyo-home> milestone you mean?
19:16:27 <stevenknight> not component, target milestone
19:16:39 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> yes, milestone
19:16:45 <stevenknight> it has three in the dropdown: -research-, 1.2 and 1.x
19:16:46 <stevenknight> that's all
19:16:58 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> There should only be research.
19:17:18 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> It's not keyed to the core release cycle.
19:17:15 <garyo-home> so, just redirect it to research then?
19:17:23 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> yes, make it research
19:17:23 <stevenknight> okay, i'll change it to -research-; that'll take care of that
19:17:32 <garyo-home> ok, back to schedule.
19:13:29 <stevenknight> anyone else have cycles?
19:13:44 <garyo-home> How can I help, Steven? I have vs2005 here.
19:14:42 <bdbaddog> I have some intra-build cycles.
19:14:43 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> I'm trying to get the GSoC stuff in shape, also the TaskmasterNG, and then be ready to re-floor the sources; not many cycles for me, none to spare.
19:18:05 <garyo-home> Steven: we need to clear out some failing tests, right? I saw some that looked like regex expectation mismatches, maybe I can look at those.
19:18:08 <stevenknight> done
19:18:23 <stevenknight> garyo-home: that sounds good
19:18:46 <stevenknight> probably the most help right now is to at least check out vs_revamp
19:18:56 <stevenknight> and run all the tests on any Windows system available
19:18:59 <garyo-home> Are those the main hurdles to getting vs_revamp in?
19:19:08 <stevenknight> that and doc
19:19:13 <bdbaddog> ok. any special setups needed to do that, just qmtest right?
19:19:20 <stevenknight> and some tests that should be written, but we can probably let that slide
19:19:30 <stevenknight> you don't even absolutely have to have qmtest
19:19:30 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> you don't even need QMTest
19:19:40 <stevenknight> runtest.py knows how to fall back and execute the tests without it
19:19:52 <bdbaddog> ok, but runs better with qmtest?
19:19:51 <stevenknight> QMTest is actually another thing I wouldn't mind getting rid of
19:20:05 <stevenknight> it doesn't have enough mindshare and we're not using any of its theoretic potential
19:20:17 <stevenknight> but that's a whole 'nother discussion...
19:20:24 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> yes, later
19:20:32 <garyo-home> interesting opinion: I was thinking of using it at work as a test fwk.
19:20:39 <garyo-home> ok, I'll defer that q.
19:20:36 <bdbaddog> well besides wanting to get rid of it, will tests work better if it's installed?
19:20:43 <garyo-home> I'll do vs2005 and vs2003 by tomorrow and report the results, does that help?
19:20:53 <stevenknight> garyo-home: yes, very much
19:20:58 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> garyo-home ++
19:20:55 <bdbaddog> I have a VS2008express machine.
19:21:04 <stevenknight> bdbaddog++ too
19:21:33 <garyo-home> my buildbot crashed, sorry, I'm restarting it now.
19:22:00 <stevenknight> good news is that vs_revamp does look like it clears up the few remaining test failures i had on trunk
19:22:09 <stevenknight> so we should have green buildbots on Windows once it lands
19:21:50 <bdbaddog> Steven u have room for the dual quad core?
19:22:22 <stevenknight> bdbaddog: ooh, tempting
19:22:23 <stevenknight> i might
19:22:26 <stevenknight> how big is the case?
19:22:37 <bdbaddog> hmm more or less full size tower.
19:23:11 <stevenknight> does it have a wifi card? it wouldn't be close to my router
19:23:13 <bdbaddog> I can send you dimensions if you need them..;) dell poweredge sc1430 I think.
19:23:16 <bdbaddog> no wifi.
19:23:20 <bdbaddog> can get one.
19:23:21 <stevenknight> i could rustle one up i think
19:23:36 <stevenknight> let's sync up off line
19:24:31 <bdbaddog> k
19:24:18 <stevenknight> schedule: see if we can land vs_revamp on trunk by early next week?
19:24:43 <garyo-home> great w/ me.
19:24:54 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> fine by me, although I don't use it
19:24:56 <garyo-home> I will see if I can try it on our real build too.
19:25:28 <stevenknight> cool
19:25:53 <bdbaddog> does this end up with the big delays that David mentioned on startup?
19:25:57 <stevenknight> just went and got my main windows laptop
19:26:10 <stevenknight> i have three test failures right now
19:26:15 <stevenknight> that don't show up on my system at work:
19:26:30 <stevenknight> src\engine\SCons\Tool\msvsTests.py
19:27:05 <stevenknight> --- issues w/retrieving default visual studio version on my home system
19:27:18 <garyo-home> msvsTests.py fails in the same way for me here.
19:27:24 <stevenknight> test\[KeyboardInterrupt](KeyboardInterrupt).py
19:27:31 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> ouch
19:27:51 <stevenknight> -- not sure of cause yet
19:28:01 <stevenknight> test\option-j.py
19:28:01 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> timing....
19:28:15 <garyo-home> [KeyboardInterrupt](KeyboardInterrupt) fails reliably for me too here.
19:28:17 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> also timing....
19:28:35 <stevenknight> possibly timing, not sure
19:28:34 <garyo-home> but it's not timing, it's looking for the mssdk. (?)
19:28:50 <stevenknight> sorry, test\option-j.py isn't timing
19:29:05 <stevenknight> it's in the part where it's testing fallback on Python versions that don't have threading
19:29:16 <stevenknight> which it does by dropping in a threading.py that just raises [ImportError](ImportError)
19:29:16 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> ah
19:29:16 <garyo-home> option-j fails w/ same stack trace as [KeyboardInterrupt](KeyboardInterrupt) for me too.
19:29:37 <stevenknight> this interferes with the vs_revamp code that uses subprocess to try to execute the .bat script
19:29:45 <bdbaddog> do you guys have the activestate python, or python.org python?
19:29:46 <stevenknight> vcvars32.bat
19:29:49 <bdbaddog> and which versions?
19:30:02 <garyo-home> python.org, 2.5.2 for me
19:30:07 <stevenknight> python.org, 2.4.3
19:30:17 <bdbaddog> try swapping in activestate?
19:30:40 <stevenknight> that won't help test\option-j.py
19:30:41 <bdbaddog> which module is it trying to import?
19:30:49 <garyo-home> could do, but it needs to work on python.org too.
19:30:54 <stevenknight> threading.py
19:31:19 <garyo-home> Steven: I don't think my failures are the same. I'm seeing mssdk is not defined.
19:31:29 <stevenknight> this raises another issue, which is that vs_revamp's use of subprocess to get the info
19:32:01 <bdbaddog> import threading works find on activestate python 2.5.2
19:32:06 <stevenknight> means we won't work on Windows Pythons that aren't compiled with threading
19:32:14 <stevenknight> bdbaddog: it works fine for us, too
19:32:24 <bdbaddog> ahh o.k.
19:32:14 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> (Note that there's a function in Action that wraps subprocess, if you can use it.)
19:32:32 <stevenknight> the issue is that test\option-j.py tries to force a test of falling back to working w/out threading
19:32:42 <stevenknight> by faking out the import with our own "module"
19:32:40 <garyo-home> Steven: my failure is at [http://pastebin.com/d3a1654fd](http://pastebin.com/d3a1654fd), is that same as yours or not?
19:33:16 <stevenknight> garyo-home: d'oh!
19:33:20 <garyo-home> import threading works for me too... ?
19:33:22 <stevenknight> no, those are other errors
19:33:47 <stevenknight> i was working them this morning, but didn't get a chance to check them in before leaving for work
19:33:51 <stevenknight> hang on...
19:34:34 <stevenknight> garyo-home: update and try again
19:34:50 <garyo-home> ok...
19:35:16 <garyo-home> option-j: now fails with your error ('threading' is not defined)
19:35:16 <stevenknight> i redid the SDK searching to add a new Tool/mssdk.py tool for independent discovery of the SDKs
19:35:25 <stevenknight> yeah
19:35:32 <stevenknight> i think we have to at least rewrite that test
19:35:53 <stevenknight> and decide that we're okay with requiring threading when SCons is run on Wiindows
19:36:30 <garyo-home> Well, I'm personally OK w/ it...
19:36:36 <stevenknight> since it seems threading is enabled in the python.org and activestate versions, that should be okay
19:37:09 <stevenknight> and people don't build custom Pythons on Windows as readily as they do for other platforms
19:37:19 <stevenknight> okay, I'll add a release note
19:37:37 <stevenknight> and a mention of it in the installation chapter of the User's Guide, too
19:37:50 <stevenknight> garyo-home: do you also get a test\[KeyboardInterrupt](KeyboardInterrupt).py failure after update?
19:38:20 <garyo-home> Good plan. now [KeyboardInterrupt](KeyboardInterrupt) passes for me, I'm rerunning it to see if it passes twice, yes it passes both times.
19:38:32 <stevenknight> okay, i need to dig on that one
19:38:37 <stevenknight> it passes on my work system, too
19:39:09 <stevenknight> [GregNoel](GregNoel)'s suggestion of timing is distinctly possible, my home system is kind of slow and under-powered
19:39:27 <garyo-home> Mine's zippy
19:40:38 <stevenknight> [GregNoel](GregNoel): re: wrapping subprocess
19:40:42 <stevenknight> a la Action.py
19:40:51 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> yes?
19:41:22 <stevenknight> hang on, interrupt...
19:41:46 * [GregNoel](GregNoel) is hanging, but the rope is beginning to dig into his neck...
19:42:08 <garyo-home> funny.
19:42:44 <stevenknight> yeah, that might be what we have to do
19:43:17 <stevenknight> the hassle is that it's an import inside subprocess
19:43:37 <stevenknight> and i was really hoping we'd be able to migrate to using subprocess directly
19:43:43 <stevenknight> instead of Yet Another wrapper of our own devising
19:43:59 <bdbaddog> for 2.0?
19:44:15 <stevenknight> threading requirement for 2.0? maybe
19:44:27 <stevenknight> well, except that vs_revamp is what needs this
19:44:42 <stevenknight> and that's the 1.3 pacing item
19:45:11 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> (what's an import inside subprocess? I'm missing something)
19:45:19 <stevenknight> import threading
19:45:47 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> wait a sec...
19:46:02 <stevenknight> on Windows, it uses threads to handle the async communication in things like _communicate()
19:46:41 <stevenknight> hmm....
19:46:49 <stevenknight> hmmm....
19:46:53 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> I was checking to see if there was a name change, but not...
19:47:01 <stevenknight> hmmmm.....
19:47:35 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> Go for more m&m's!
19:47:29 <stevenknight> i may be able to sidestep this
19:47:40 <stevenknight> the threading is only used inside communicate()
19:48:14 <stevenknight> but we don't need to actually use communicate() to get the output from vcvars32.bat
19:48:27 <stevenknight> because we're not feeding anything to stdin
19:48:35 <stevenknight> so I think it's actually overkill
19:48:41 <stevenknight> okay, we're beating this to death
19:48:45 <bdbaddog> :)
19:48:47 <stevenknight> i have a plan on test\option-j.py
19:49:08 <stevenknight> i also have to tackle test\[KeyboardInterrupt](KeyboardInterrupt).py since it only shows up on my system
19:49:24 <stevenknight> garyo-home, you can repro the msvsTests.py failures?
19:49:40 <stevenknight> even after update?
19:49:45 <garyo-home> yes. Want me to look into the cause?
19:49:59 <stevenknight> yeah, if you could tackle that, it'd be a definite help
19:50:29 <garyo-home> ok, will do.
19:50:37 <stevenknight> also both you and bdbaddog check if any other tests fail on any windows systems you have available
19:50:50 <bdbaddog> ok.
19:50:56 <bdbaddog> on vs_revamp right?
19:51:02 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> (Hmmm... If communicate() is called with only one pipe, it acts synchronously; no threading.)
19:51:52 <stevenknight> aha
19:52:03 <stevenknight> bdbaddog: yes, branches/vs_revamp
19:53:01 <stevenknight> if we land it and release a checkpoint next week, then a 1.3 release candidate two weeks later, right?
19:53:12 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> yes
19:53:47 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> week of 23 Feb.
19:53:49 <stevenknight> so best bet, assuming Monday, yes, that puts us at... February 30th!
19:54:00 <stevenknight> for 1.3
19:54:04 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> yes
19:54:25 <stevenknight> okay, that sounds like the plan of record, then
19:54:24 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> We'll slide, but it's a nice theory.
19:54:30 <stevenknight> right
19:54:43 <stevenknight> on to 2005q1 then?
19:54:58 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> I'm ready; 1064?
19:55:26 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> Can't put any issues in 1.x any more, 2.x p4?
19:55:40 <stevenknight> 1064: yes, 2.x p4
19:55:51 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> works
19:55:51 <stevenknight> (I filled these out a long time ago)
19:56:12 <garyo-home> ok
19:56:30 <stevenknight> 1065: 2.x p4 ?
19:56:36 <garyo-home> same.
19:56:37 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> done
19:56:59 <stevenknight> 1074:
19:57:15 <stevenknight> i'll go with 2.x p4 tbd on this, too
19:57:23 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> done
19:57:29 <garyo-home> ok
19:57:46 <stevenknight> 1078:
19:57:48 <stevenknight> sconf_revamp++
19:57:58 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> 1078, 3.x p3
19:58:07 <stevenknight> done
19:58:18 <stevenknight> that'll give us nice incentive to move along from 2.0 to 3.0... :-)
19:58:59 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> There's 100+ issues in 2.x; it'll take a while.
19:58:42 <stevenknight> btw, [GregNoel](GregNoel), thanks for bolding the appropriate rows in the spreadsheet
19:58:55 <stevenknight> really helps the navigability
19:59:02 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> np
19:59:31 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> 1093
19:59:49 <stevenknight> "subst" keyword
20:00:12 <garyo-home> ok w/ that, prob 2.x?
20:00:25 <stevenknight> I'll add the keyword
20:00:30 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> Sigh, I have a partial writeup of a wiki page discussing this, but it's nowhere near internally consistent enough to put out.
20:00:58 <stevenknight> 2.x sounds right
20:01:28 <stevenknight> p2?
20:01:33 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> I'll buy 2.x p2
20:01:48 <garyo-home> sold
20:01:57 <stevenknight> done
20:02:02 <stevenknight> 1094:
20:02:12 <garyo-home> 1094 looks like Greg to dup it and untangle
20:02:14 <stevenknight> dup [GregNoel](GregNoel)
20:02:21 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> Gary has a comment about the subst keyword later; we'll get to it below.
20:02:46 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> 1094 2.x p4
20:02:59 <stevenknight> 1094: done
20:03:26 <stevenknight> 1098: i like the i18n keyword
20:03:35 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> 1098 is nasty
20:03:39 <stevenknight> or unicode, whichever
20:03:42 <stevenknight> agreed re: nasty
20:04:00 <bdbaddog> 4.x
20:04:56 <garyo-home> unicode is more correct
20:05:16 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> yes, unicode is not the same as i18n
20:05:03 <stevenknight> 1098: future, unicode keyword
20:05:45 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> I hate to push it out that far, but I can't think of how to deal with it, either.
20:06:07 <stevenknight> agreed on both counts
20:06:06 <garyo-home> GSoC?
20:06:20 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> garyo-home, hmmm...
20:06:30 <garyo-home> just a thought.
20:06:57 <stevenknight> hey, if the right brilliant student shows up
20:06:59 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> I'll put it on my GSoC list and see if I can figure something out.
20:07:20 <stevenknight> i think we could write it up to sound like an attractive tough problem to solve
20:08:10 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> We get so few students, I'd put other things as a higher priority, but it might be OK.
20:07:58 <stevenknight> have we reached consensus?
20:08:27 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> no consensus I see; defer until next time?
20:08:34 <stevenknight> okay
20:09:06 <bdbaddog> I'd say make it future. We've not had a lot of request for this have we?
20:09:14 <bdbaddog> unicode that is.
20:09:37 <stevenknight> bdbaddog: we can go into more depth next week
20:09:46 <bdbaddog> k.
20:09:47 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> It's because a filename has unicode characters in it.
20:09:01 <stevenknight> 1107: 2.1 p3
20:09:04 <stevenknight> and split into parts?
20:10:08 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> 1107, I'll untangle it.
20:10:03 <garyo-home> What is the point of 1107?
20:10:30 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> gcc -include xxx.h on the command line.
20:10:39 <garyo-home> oh, got it.
20:11:18 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> 1107, I'll untangle it?
20:11:35 <bdbaddog> +1
20:11:36 <garyo-home> agree, you do that, then 2.x p3 for the parts?
20:11:46 <stevenknight> i'm okay with that
20:11:51 <stevenknight> or re-triaging the parts separately next week
20:11:50 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> Or do we want me to try untangling it and review it next time?
20:12:00 <garyo-home> that's fine w/ me too.
20:12:05 <bdbaddog> +1 on untangle and retriage
20:12:08 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> OK, I'll do that
20:12:28 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> 1116, no clue
20:13:01 <garyo-home> 1116, it thinks there's going to be a .exp file but there isn't one.
20:13:21 <garyo-home> emitter bug in mingw, or mingw not clearing out some var from msvc most likely
20:13:44 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> (Here's Gary's comment about what the subst keyword should cover.)
20:14:45 <garyo-home> 1116, not a huge prob because of easy workaround (you don't typically install all the files resulting from a [SharedLibrary](SharedLibrary) call anyway)
20:14:54 <garyo-home> 2.x p4 tbd?
20:15:06 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> done
20:15:09 <stevenknight> done
20:15:26 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> last one, 1126
20:15:31 <stevenknight> 1120?
20:15:52 <stevenknight> i think 1120 is what you meant re: gary's subst comment?
20:15:53 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> Oops, I was one ahead
20:16:13 <stevenknight> 1120: 2.x p3 subst keyword?
20:16:15 <garyo-home> Yes. 1120, patch is pretty simple and non-intrusive
20:16:35 <garyo-home> It only does anything if the cmd ends with \
20:16:43 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> Is Jim still around? Who should contact him?
20:17:03 <stevenknight> either you or me
20:17:14 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> hmmm, you?
20:17:41 <stevenknight> okay
20:17:47 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> I wrote him around Christmas and got no reply
20:18:17 <stevenknight> i'll check, and if i get no reply, too, then we should probably reassign
20:18:26 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> concur
20:18:27 <stevenknight> actually, that's true for a number of people we haven't heard from
20:18:45 <stevenknight> but that's yet *another* topic for another time
20:18:53 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> yes, I just heard from Ludwig; he's busy but hoping to spend some time on SCons
20:19:03 <garyo-home> Greg: good news.
20:18:42 <garyo-home> 1120: Anyone could do this one. Even the testcase should be easy.
20:19:16 <stevenknight> garyo-home: would 1120 be good for your spare-half-hour back burner?
20:19:35 <garyo-home> sure, why not. It's windows after all :-/
20:19:42 <stevenknight> okay
20:19:59 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> done; what milestone and priority?
20:20:02 <stevenknight> 1120: 2.x p3 garyo-home subst keyword
20:20:07 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> done
20:20:11 <garyo-home> good
20:20:17 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> now the last one...
20:20:33 <stevenknight> 1126: agree w/Greg's plan
20:20:48 <stevenknight> merge w/2079
20:20:48 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> done, and that's all
20:20:57 <stevenknight> okay, i have to run
20:21:02 <garyo-home> good job guys!
20:21:09 <bdbaddog> :)
20:21:17 <stevenknight> great that we're now well down below 50 to classify...
20:21:19 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> Great job; we only have 2004 left now
20:21:22 <garyo-home> ok, I'll run my tests & get you results tomorrow.
20:21:27 <bdbaddog> ditto
20:21:33 <stevenknight> thanks
20:21:33 <bdbaddog> running now.
20:21:35 <[GregNoel](GregNoel)> G'night all

20:22:22 <stevenknight> okay, i'll look for those
20:22:30 <stevenknight> thanks
20:22:34 <stevenknight> i have to run myself...
