Progress

• Set up pelican site. Done.
  • We have a basic blog set up, and it looks good.
  • We created the atom-hammer-theme for Pelican to make this happen.

• Set up generation toolchain. Done.
  • Right now we are using an Olipy example that generates fake dinosaur names.
  • This can be hooked up to something really fancy later.
  • We also have code to re-generate static content for the Pelican blog when new fake dinosaur names are created and new blog posts are made.

• Set up commit toolchain.
  • We still aren't done with this. This requires some git-python interfacing.

• Scheduling commits.
  • This has a couple of different components
  • Being able to turn a picture into a commit schedule
  • Being able to create and then follow a commit schedule
  • Being able to use libfaketime to make a certain commit schedule happen

Scheduler Notes

What we're doing with the scheduler piece is turning a 7 x 51 grid drawing into a schedule, a list of dates.

Here's an alphabet of 3x5 letters:
