WordPress 2.1 and K2 0.9.5RC1
4-Legged League Rules are out. [tzi.de/4legged]
Here’s a summary of the rule changes, which are few:
- Two beacons instead of four. Pink is not used as a color anymore.
- New goals.
- Corner kick points. Points closer to the penalty area than the end of the throw-in lines were added at which the ball is placed when the defending team kicks the ball out over the end line.
Here’s an note on a change that wasn’t to be:
The change that took most time to discuss and actually experiment with is not in the rules: changing the colors of the blue uniforms and the blue goal. It turned out that the improvement was not worth the effort required (i.e. new uniforms), especially in possibly the last year of the AIBO-based Four-Legged League.
I was looking for help with setSize(), and I found it. Makes sense to me now. Steer clear of Java Pitfalls [javaworld.com].
Is everyone set with card access? If not let me know.
Yet another friendly reminder from your robotic overlord.
UPDATE:: Campfire Link added to ‘Bites’ Links right….
So my upgrading fiasco spawned more upgrading fiascos which resulted in our whole webserver being out of commission for over a day. My bad. But the blog is back up under its normal theme–however, WordPress 2.1 is now in the wild and we will hopefully be merging to that soon enough once K2, the rawking theme by Michael Heilemann, gets updated to boot.
UPDATE:: OK turns out that the nice dated+named permalink structure doesn’t work, so I’ve reverted to the default structure for now.
UPDATE #2:: K2 0.95 is out.
So Jeremy has fixed my botched attempt to upgrade WordPress–but the theme that you’ve become to know as dear to your heart is still not yet operational. It would be, if I could ftp into the server from off-campus. But for some reason that’s not working. I’ll get it fully running tomorrow morning.
Wow, glad I didn’t miss this. Lucky that I found it: Call for Papers for the 2007 RoboCup symposium.
I’m not sure if we’ll have anything really ready at this point, but here’s hoping. I feel like Year 1 was all about getting things working. Year 2 is about getting things working really well and actually getting to some real, innovative research. Year 3 will we be able to publish things that are actually interesting. Unfortunately, the deadline for Year 2’s symposium is just in a few weeks; we haven’t gotten to anything really interesting yet. But we may have some publish-able things that we don’t realize are such.
Here are the Important Dates for the Symposium:
Submission of abstracts: February 11th, 2007; 23:59 PST
Submission of papers: February 18th, 2007; 23:59 PST
