8:00 – 5:00

• Added a PMP role under S2A
• Added PMP folks to VISIBILITY
• Left a note with JM on progress
• Testing role update
• Also looking at new web hosts, since hostjava.net kinda sucks:
  • viz-n.com (hostjava.net) baseline:
    • ping (min/avg/max/med) – 156/327/442/348
    • 6.7% packet loss
    • tracert hops: 13 hops
  • feale.com (steadfast.net)
    • ping (min/avg/max/med) – 62/176/315/162
    • 11.8% packet loss
    • tracert hops: 9 hops
  • tanori.net (mediatemple)
    • ping (min/avg/max/med) – 84/256/406/260
    • 13.3% packet loss
    • tracert hops: 16 hops
  • philfeldman.com (dreamhost)
    • ping (min/avg/max/med) – 77/171/284/170
    • 15.4% packet loss
    • tracert hops: 21 hops
• A lot of this delay seems to be coming from us. When I ping these sites from a dreamhost server, I get much better numbers. There is no packet loss at all, and the times are better (in the case of mediatemple, they’re phenomenal)
  • tanori.net ping (min/avg/max/med) – 1.8/2.0/2.1/0.09
  • feale.com ping (min/avg/max/med) – 78/78/78/0.078
  • viz-n.com ping (min/avg/max/med) – 87/88/88/0.268
• Struggled with the role code for a while, until I realized that the actionscript object can come across to java with the children Lists being null. All seems to be working.
• Burned a disk of VIS2 and PPM.

7:30 – 3:30

• Deployed new documentation in a test URL for JW to look at
• Walked through the new S14 app with JM. Lots of notes – I called Dong and passed them along.
• Meeting with Anne and a large group from S2A(?). Made the pitch that they pay for the development of a deployable version of VISIBILITY, which they liked
• Need to put in the role editing that I worked out before the move. Done. Need to test

7:00 – 4:30

• Deployed ProjPortfolioMgr. It works! Hosanna!
• Spent 40 min waiting for Jim M to show up
• Meeting with Larry about commercialization. I think we’ll try to package up the charting part of Visibility and use it as the wedge for services. Also, Ed(?) is looking at using Media Temple, so we might be able to piggy back on that effort
• Bike seminar
• And it took 2 hours to get back here…

7:30 – 5:30

• Deployed the new Scripting, which pointed out that I was trying to update the wrong table. Once fixed, the scripts worked fine, so I put them on a schedule to run every day at 7:00 and 7:05
• Couldn’t connect to the S2F endpoint. Somehow, the url is getting changed from https:// (which it is in the settings.xml file) to http://. I printed out relevant stuff and showed to Dong.
• Talked to Jim M
• Meeting/demo with Anne is now set for Monday at 10:30
• useful!
  • find . -name *.mxml -mtime -15 -type f -exec wc -l {} ; | awk ‘{total += $1} END{print total}’
  • This is “find all the mxml files under the current directory that are less than 15 days old. Run a line count on the files and sum them.
• We seem to have fixed the problems with ProjPortfolioMgr. Burning a disk

7:30 – 4:30

• Meeting with Jim M. Came up with a more realistic plan for hitting their goals
• Showed Anne how to ingest data
• Deployed new Vis2 and Scripting
• Tried my new insert. It didn’t work. The reason was that the column name was wrong. Fixed the logging so that the error shows
• Got ProjPortfolioMgr to deploy on S2f. We’ll also make that the first attempt at an installer

9:30 – 4:00 5:00 – 6:00

• Dentist this morning
• Back to Facade insert – done and working!
• Dong added backticking to Ingest Manager
• Built some new sensor rods (paddles?) for Tom
