Minutes
- new project members not present
- deadline to get stuff into 0.5 is tomorrow (Fri. 12) @ noon. Anything not in at that time will be moved to 0.6. Since there is no peer-reviews needed everyone should be tackling some bugs. Pay special attention to ensure that no duplicate tickets are filed in Lighthouse (use the search feature before adding anything).
- once 0.5 is released everyone has to merge it with their master branch. I will send out an email to remind everyone. I will aslo write out a blog to pass on my Git knowledge. To make things easier check out the https://processing-js.lighthouseapp.com/projects/41284/project-management-guidelines
- Dave has written up a "how to" for the unit tests: https://processing-js.lighthouseapp.com/projects/41284/writing-automated-tests Try to do it yourself, contact Dave for a one-on-one if you have trouble. Also, get a list together of all of your visual tests that you wrote and gave it to Dave. These test will need to be converted to unit tests. From now on unit-tests are mandatory and visual tests are just gravy. However, if the function you are testing doesn't return anything visual tests are mandatory.
- PGraphic is not needed for 3D. Its basically a back buffer that is used to store pixels off the screen. createGraphic() already makes a new context PGraphic will just need to toggle the contents from the back buffer to the visible canvas. PGraphic will be looked at again once PImage is completed
- smooth() & nosmooth() are basically setting a <canvas style> called imageRendering. Firefox 3.6 is suppose to recognize this style but so far Matthew is getting an error: unknown property imageRendering. Lighthouse ticket for this is going to be blocked. Dave will file a firefox bug and Anna will track the progress.
- Anna is going to clean up the zenit Processing.js wiki page. Project Tests and Processing.js 0.1 Code status sections will be removed. 3D Implementation Roadmap will be moved to Lighthouse.
- P3D is Processing's software renderer. Since WebGL hardware/software rendering is configured by the user in about:config, we won't have access to this setting. We should create the 3D context if the user uses P3D or OPENGL in their size() call and just let the browser decide how to do rendering.
