tttxxxttt echo test07:14.13 
mvrhel_laptop morning15:53.25 
Robin_Watts morning15:53.30 
mvrhel_laptop it is hot here in the NW. Over this next week temps are 32C to 37C. Very unusual16:35.55 
Robin_Watts I bought a clock with a thermometer in it a few weeks ago.16:46.30 
  I am shocked to discover that my office is constantly 25+16:46.39 
mvrhel_laptop wow16:57.59 
  Robin_Watts: well I imagine that you have no AC there, which is the same here 17:03.28 
Robin_Watts I have a "portable" AC unit on the table next to me (4ftx2ftx1.5ft, so not that portable)17:05.06 
  but I rarely run it cos it makes such a racket.17:05.15 
  jbig2dec is really icky.17:07.34 
  Let's pass in some compiler static strings and then write to them!17:08.08 
  Actually, that's the SHA stuff. I can probably drop that.17:08.30 
henrys mvrhel_laptop: monsoon season should be rolling in soon though17:14.55 
mvrhel_laptop henrys: I hope not for a couple more months17:16.02 
  henrys: so the gsview selection in bugzilla. who can change this so that it is related to our version and so that the bugs get assigned to me. I have a few issues that I have found using it that I want to log and get back to and would like to make use of bugzilla17:18.06 
  I also need to get the beta on the web site17:18.12 
  henrys: right now I think bugzilla is set up to assign issues to russell17:18.34 
henrys mvrhel_laptop: oh I thought yours and ours were the same but we have monsoon moisture coming in from the south17:18.37 
  mvrhel_laptop: I’ll fix bugzilla now17:19.01 
mvrhel_laptop henrys: read this. http://cliffmass.blogspot.com/2014/07/the-northwest-summer-drought-begins.html17:20.21 
  it talks about the southwest monsoon17:20.40 
  vs nw weather17:20.49 
henrys mvrhel_laptop: thanks I always though that came from your area … most of our weather does17:21.18 
  mvrhel_laptop: there is some chance that may give us a break for ironman but I’m not counting on it.17:21.59 
mvrhel_laptop henrys: look at the temp outlooks in this17:22.32 
  http://cliffmass.blogspot.com/2014/07/fire-weather.html17:22.33 
  in particular http://cliffmass.blogspot.com/2014/07/fire-weather.html17:22.47 
henrys just did a rehearsal in the mid 90’s and 10% humidity, not pleasant at all.17:22.48 
mvrhel_laptop you are on the edge of warmer/cooler area17:23.17 
  from normal17:23.27 
  oops that one link was wrong17:23.59 
Robin_Watts henrys: as opposed to a normal ironman, which is entirely pleasant.17:24.15 
mvrhel_laptop tried to copy the Climate prediction center temp forcast17:24.17 
henrys mvrhel_laptop: are you guys getting rain with this?17:24.30 
mvrhel_laptop Robin_Watts: yes. we want lava fields17:24.32 
  henrys: no we have no rain. dry and hot 17:24.46 
  this is the one I was trying to copy17:25.18 
  http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-0GdLbrKNtd8/U794gnk6SYI/AAAAAAAAbEg/4w81qjSkWwk/s1600/610temp.new+%281%29.gif17:25.19 
henrys mvrhel_laptop: everything out here is pretty well adapted to hot dry for the summer - I wonder if there will be environmental problems where you are17:28.41 
mvrhel_laptop I wonder too. If we end up with more CA weather eventually this place is going to go up like a tinder box17:29.37 
henrys mvrhel_laptop: you certainly have the fuel17:30.01 
mvrhel_laptop henrys: I may need to replace my wood roof...17:30.06 
Robin_Watts mvrhel_laptop: Surely replacing a wooden roof only makes a difference in a small number of cases?17:31.36 
  i.e. if the fire is close/hot enough to catch your roof on fire, it doesn't need to be much closer/hotter to catch the wooden walls?17:32.03 
mvrhel_laptop Robin_Watts: You are probably correct. My only concern is that people around here (including me) have back yard fires in the evening to sit around and lots of sparks head off into the air and land who knows where... 17:32.59 
Robin_Watts mvrhel_laptop: ah, well, that's a different kettle of monkeys.17:33.20 
mvrhel_laptop technically they are not legal, but everyone does it17:33.47 
  I usually have a screen over mine17:33.56 
  which reminds me that I should do some wood splitting today17:34.23 
henrys mvrhel_laptop: I changed the assignment to you, when I create a new bug there is no default version17:39.32 
  mvrhel_laptop: I also changed the description17:40.15 
mvrhel_laptop henrys: ok thanks. I will add a few later today. So I saw on IRC logs when you were talking with chrisl that getting font outlines for xps write is not going to work?17:40.39 
henrys mvrhel_laptop: seems that way let me look at it a bit more I’ll have something to report before the Tuesday meeting17:41.17 
mvrhel_laptop ok thanks17:42.11 
henrys mvrhel_laptop: I think I remember the windows pipeline accepting pcl as well as xps so pxlcolor and pxlmono are possibilities17:44.11 
mvrhel_laptop henrys: yes. I do think that is correct17:44.50 
  lunch time. bbiab18:05.14 
rayjj mvrhel_laptop: so, tracing through the case where I have a RGB device and use sgray.icc as an output profile, I see gx_remap_concrete_ICC getting 1 as num_colorants from the dev_profile. Then it calls gx_remap_concrete_DGray. That calls cmap_gray_direct and all is OK.18:30.50 
  mvrhel_laptop: For colors set as /DeviceGray then the is_identity flag get set, skipping the transform. If the input is not gray, then the link profile formed is one that transforms the input (3 components for RGB) to 1 component (gray) in gx_remap_ICC. Then as above, gx_remap_concrete_ICC ends up calling gx_remap_concrete_DGray.18:30.52 
  mvrhel_laptop: The conversion looks reasonable: [icc] remap [ 52428 29490 9830 ] --> [ 30878 ]. So it seems this works (and should in general) because the output profile (sgray.icc) does the transform to 1 component, then the cmap_procs (cmap_gray_direct) looks up the device's cmap_procs and uses gray_cs_to_rgb_cm prior to calling the device's encode_color.18:30.53 
  mvrhel_laptop: So I'm not sure that the caution about having the number of components for an output profile match the device num_components is valid since after the transform we do another cmap_procs step that resolves the mismatch18:33.11 
  mvrhel_laptop: This isn't important, since it doesn't (currently) affect a customer, but it puzzled me why it worked when you thought there would be problems.18:34.00 
mvrhel_laptop Success!22:31.24
