Road Committee: Monastery Public Meeting Transcript

Post by Guillaume Mistwalker »

[12:03] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): Let's get started
[12:03] Rosie Gray fusses with the seating
[12:03] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): Let me just explain a little about what we're doing first
[12:04] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): We're in the process of naming some of the roads in the sims which haven't been previously named, in part because I think we all collectively think it will add something--a certain je-ne-sais-quoi-- to the sims
[12:04] Rosie Gray: ㋡
[12:05] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): There are only three roads we're considering today, and the names we decide one will be reported to the RA so that they can approve or deny them
[12:05] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): But... since a majority of RA members are here, I don't anticipate that being a problem!
[12:05] Laura Azalee: unless we have split prsonality :D
[12:05] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): Hahaha
[12:06] Tanoujin Milestone: hehehe
[12:06] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): I hope not!
[12:06] Tanoujin Milestone: i wish I was split, i am bored by myself
[12:06] Rosie Gray: eh?
[12:06] Laura Azalee: lol
[12:06] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): I must also clarify that I will be keeping a transcript of the discussion. Do we all consent?
[12:06] Laura Azalee: hello Udo
[12:06] Rosie Gray: hello Udo
[12:06] Udo Swashbuckler: bonsoir pour tout le monde! ^^ greetings to everybody :)
[12:06] Tanoujin Milestone: i consent to be recorded
[12:06] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): Bonsoir, Udo!
[12:06] Tanoujin Milestone: Hi Udo
[12:07] Laura Azalee: aye
[12:07] Rosie Gray: aye
[12:07] Udo Swashbuckler: what s up? :)
[12:07] Tanoujin Milestone: road committee
[12:07] Udo Swashbuckler: lovely sky, in here! :)
[12:07] Tanoujin Milestone: naming roads
[12:07] Rosie Gray: a meeting of the roads committee
[12:07] Udo Swashbuckler: yeah, i was told :)
[12:07] Tanoujin Milestone: have a seat, Udo
[12:08] Udo Swashbuckler: oki
[12:08] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): The naming convention for Monastery is French
[12:08] Laura Azalee: I think that bench is full
[12:08] Tanoujin Milestone: we can need a Schweizer here
[12:08] Laura Azalee: wouldnt let me sit
[12:08] Udo Swashbuckler: lol
[12:08] Laura Azalee: but this bench has a seat
[12:08] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): Yes, we do!
[12:08] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): Let's get started
[12:09] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): The first road is the major road which runs through the sim from Alpine Meadows to here
[12:09] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): In Alpine Meadows, it is called "Sonnenallee" or "Sun Alley"
[12:09] Laura Azalee: that would be rue du soleil in French
[12:10] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): There are many people who took with my suggestion, and I think the one we came up with at our last meeting, that it be called in the same way
[12:10] Tanoujin Milestone: makes much sense , yes
[12:10] Laura Azalee: thats a nice nme
[12:10] Laura Azalee: name
[12:10] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): Rue du Soleil it would be!
[12:10] Udo Swashbuckler: yeah, that s more or less a pretty proper equivalent
[12:11] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): Do we all like that name?
[12:11] Laura Azalee: yes
[12:11] Tanoujin Milestone: I do :)
[12:11] Rosie Gray: yes I like it
[12:11] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): Seems we have a consensus!
[12:11] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): That was easy!
[12:11] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): Hi Tor!
[12:11] Laura Azalee: lol
[12:11] Laura Azalee: hey tor
[12:11] Udo Swashbuckler: greetings Tor!
[12:11] Tanoujin Milestone: Hi Tor :)
[12:11] Laura Azalee: Ill place another bench
[12:12] Rosie Gray: hi Tor
[12:12] Tor Karlsvalt: Hi all
[12:12] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): Alright, the next road is the small road that goes up the mountain to the Monastery
[12:12] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): Several people suggested "Monastery Road" but there were other suggestions
[12:13] Rosie Gray: one of my suggestions, Virtus Ascent, is based on the group that the Monastery belongs to
[12:13] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): Rue du Monastère in French
[12:13] Tanoujin Milestone: Mona's climb is somewhat funny
[12:13] Rosie Gray: it's the Monastery's group
[12:13] Laura Azalee: yeah
[12:14] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): Hm...
[12:14] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): Rue de la Virtue
[12:14] Laura Azalee: nah too serious
[12:14] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): = Road of Virtue
[12:14] Laura Azalee: sounds like a road for religious fanatics
[12:14] Tanoujin Milestone: sounds like a title from de Sade ;)
[12:14] Laura Azalee: lol
[12:14] Rosie Gray: lol
[12:14] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): Hahaha
[12:15] Laura Azalee: yeah that too
[12:15] Laura Azalee: justine or the misadventures of virtue
[12:15] Laura Azalee: lOL!
[12:15] Tanoujin Milestone: virgin's doom
[12:15] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): Chemin de Mona is my best equivalent for "Monas's Climb"
[12:15] Tor Karlsvalt: Road to Virtue...we really want to not have residents. hehe
[12:15] Rosie Gray: lol, true
[12:15] Tanoujin Milestone: oh, I would love to have a chemin!
[12:15] Rosie Gray: didn't think about it that way
[12:15] Tanoujin Milestone: saw them in Lausanne all over the place
[12:16] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): I sort of like St.Catherine's Way
[12:16] Laura Azalee: chemin de st catherie?
[12:16] Rosie Gray: who is St. Catherine?
[12:16] Tanoujin Milestone: okay, because of cpt Jaaneway, or why, Gaius?
[12:16] Udo Swashbuckler: what about Rue du Vieux Monastère?
[12:16] Laura Azalee: that would be nice
[12:16] Laura Azalee: oh udo love that one!!!
[12:16] Tor Karlsvalt: I like that too
[12:17] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): St. Catherine of Siena is the patron saint of : against fire; bodily ills; diocese of Allentown, Pennsylvania, USA; Europe; illness; Italy; miscarriages; people ridiculed for their piety; sexual temptation; sick people; sickness; nurses
[12:17] Tor Karlsvalt: It's a good description of where one is going.
[12:17] Laura Azalee: yes ok we know who that is but... why here?
[12:17] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): But none of those are really relevant, I don't think
[12:17] Rosie Gray: but what significance does St. Catherine have for Monastery?
[12:17] Rosie Gray: ah okay
[12:17] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): None, I don't think. I just thought a Saint's name would be nice!
[12:17] Laura Azalee: I vote for Udo's suname
[12:17] Laura Azalee: name
[12:18] Rosie Gray: Rue du Vieux Monastère?
[12:18] Laura Azalee: yes
[12:18] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): What about Chemin du Vieux Monastère?
[12:18] Laura Azalee: even better!!!
[12:18] Laura Azalee: love it
[12:18] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): Or even Chemin du Vieux Cloître
[12:18] Tanoujin Milestone: yes, I waant a chemin, lol
[12:18] Rosie Gray: :D
[12:18] Laura Azalee: chemin du vieux monastere!!
[12:18] Tor Karlsvalt wishes he took French in HS now.
[12:18] Tanoujin Milestone: wonderful
[12:18] Rosie Gray: oh I like Chemin du Vieux Cloître
[12:19] Laura Azalee: lol tor
[12:19] Tor Karlsvalt: I suppose a Chemin is a type of road.
[12:19] Laura Azalee: yes
[12:19] Rosie Gray has a secret weapon - google translate
[12:19] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): It's like a way or a path
[12:19] Tanoujin Milestone: we will have a discussion because of the accent on the I
[12:20] Rosie Gray: I like the reference to cloister in that one
[12:20] Tanoujin Milestone: i, that is
[12:20] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): Well, if we have in world, prim road signs, we can put accents
[12:20] Rosie Gray: yes
[12:20] Tanoujin Milestone: i love accents
[12:20] Tanoujin Milestone: lets have them, hehe
[12:20] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): Do people prefer cloître or monastère?
[12:20] Tanoujin Milestone: cloitre
[12:21] Rosie Gray: cloitre
[12:21] Udo Swashbuckler: :) well, that makes sense, a Chemin is a piste qu´on trace et qui sert de route, that is :) very suitable for the road in here
[12:21] Laura Azalee: I prefer monastere but cloitre is ok too
[12:21] Tor Karlsvalt: Cloitre is nice, Monastere would be easier for most to understand.
[12:21] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): Hm... that's true
[12:21] Tanoujin Milestone: and it has another rhythm
[12:22] Rosie Gray: does it matter if they understand it?
[12:22] Tor Karlsvalt: hehe
[12:22] Rosie Gray: we can always include a notecard in the street sign that explains
[12:22] Rosie Gray: if you touch it
[12:22] Rosie Gray: and gives a LM too
[12:22] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): I suppose people don't know what a cloister is these days...
[12:22] Tor Karlsvalt: Well I suppose if you get that far to read the sine, you can figure it out.
[12:22] Rosie Gray: yes exactly
[12:22] Rosie Gray: you think people don't know what a cloister is?
[12:22] Tor Karlsvalt: sign*
[12:22] Rosie Gray: I think most people would
[12:23] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): Udo, which you prefer?
[12:24] Udo Swashbuckler: :))))))) for me it s pretty clear that a Cloître is a préau galerie couvert, so it s encadrant la cour centrale du monastère, so it s most accurately a Cloître
[12:24] Tor Karlsvalt: I know what a cloister is, but thinking about the average American......hehe.. Maybe they can leave a bit more educated if they explore.
[12:24] Laura Azalee: a covered gallery enclosing the inner yard of the monastery
[12:25] Rosie Gray: I would say if you don't know what a cloister is, and you read the sign, and you have any interest in knowing what it is, then it's not hard to figure out
[12:25] Rosie Gray: I am not a believer in dumbing down to the lowest common denominator
[12:26] Rosie Gray grins
[12:26] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): Udo, did you say which you prefered? Was it Cloitre?
[12:26] Tanoujin Milestone: yeah, let's be educational ;)
[12:27] Tor Karlsvalt: yeah, so Cloitre it is?
[12:27] Udo Swashbuckler: if you pretend to make it suggestive for visitors just to take the Chemin du Vieux Monastère, it may be inferred that what they are going to find out is a beautiful monastery.... but more technically is a Cloître. so... :)
[12:27] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): I'll take that a sa "cloitre" vote
[12:28] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): Sorry, Laura, seems opinion is for Chemin du Vieux Cloître
[12:28] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): Are we all ok with that?
[12:28] Tor Karlsvalt: yes
[12:28] Rosie Gray: yep
[12:28] Udo Swashbuckler: i find it nice.
[12:28] Laura Azalee: yeah thats ok for me too
[12:28] Tanoujin Milestone: fine
[12:28] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): Ok
[12:28] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): Last one! (woo!)
[12:29] Rosie Gray: ㋡
[12:29] Tor Karlsvalt runs for more coffee.
[12:29] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): The last one is the smallest road that just goes up a small hill to a hamlet
[12:29] Laura Azalee: ok one is already in French... that would be easiest... giggles
[12:29] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): Hehe
[12:29] Udo Swashbuckler: lol
[12:29] Rosie Gray: Retraite de l'ermite
[12:29] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): All of these seem to be fairly different
[12:30] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): Hm... what about Chemin de l'ermite ?
[12:30] Rosie Gray: oh yes, like that
[12:30] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): Or... Chemin de l'ermitage
[12:31] Laura Azalee: oh nice!
[12:31] Udo Swashbuckler: Route de l´Ermitage sounds especially nice for me :)
[12:31] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): Oh, I like that
[12:31] Tanoujin Milestone: a Route :)
[12:31] Laura Azalee: yes!
[12:31] Rosie Gray: oh kinda like that
[12:31] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): Route de l'Ermitage?
[12:32] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): All in favour?
[12:32] Laura Azalee: yes
[12:32] Rosie Gray: yes
[12:32] Tanoujin Milestone: good
[12:32] Udo Swashbuckler: nice
[12:32] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): Tor?
[12:32] Rosie Gray: Tor ran for coffee
[12:33] Tanoujin Milestone: maybe he makes it by hand like me - then do not expect him to return eithin 8 minutes ;)
[12:33] Laura Azalee: lol
[12:33] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): Hah!
[12:33] Tanoujin Milestone: ;)
[12:33] Rosie Gray: :D
[12:33] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): Well, we're all for it, so let's just call it passed ;)
[12:33] Tanoujin Milestone: yay
[12:33] Laura Azalee: yeah
[12:33] Rosie Gray: clap clap clap
[12:33] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): clap clap clap
[12:33] Rosie Gray: well done
[12:34] Udo Swashbuckler: hahaha. i better try to avoid coffee at this time of night :)
[12:34] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): We have Rue du Soleil, Chemin du Vieux Cloître, and Route de l'Ermitage
[12:34] Tanoujin Milestone: very sensible, Udo
[12:34] Laura Azalee: are you really Swiss Udo?

[12:34] Tanoujin Milestone: wb Tor
[12:34] Laura Azalee: wb
[12:34] Udo Swashbuckler: eben, bin isch, Laura :))
[12:34] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): I will report these names to the RA!

[12:35] Laura Azalee: then we are neighbours... I am in north west italy
[12:35] Rosie Gray: great!
[12:35] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): All in favour to adjourn?
[12:35] Tor Karlsvalt: Sounds great! Read back.
[12:35] Tanoujin Milestone: aye :)
[12:35] Rosie Gray: I thought there were other things onthe Agenda
[12:35] Tor Karlsvalt: oooo back just in time then.
[12:35] Tor Karlsvalt: :)
[12:35] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): Nope! Just voting these names.
[12:35] Rosie Gray: or did I miss them
[12:35] Rosie Gray: hmmm
[12:36] Rosie Gray looks at the Agenda that Gaius sent her
[12:36] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): I went through section 1
[12:36] Rosie Gray: you did?
[12:37] Rosie Gray: I guess I missed it
[12:37] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): Yes, when I explained what we were doing here today
[12:37] Rosie Gray: oh
[12:37] Rosie Gray: ㋡
[12:37] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): Unless, of course, my explanation was not thorough enough!
[12:37] Rosie Gray: I thought perhaps we would talk about `1b)
[12:37] Rosie Gray: the work plan
[12:37] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): Oh, sure
[12:37] Tanoujin Milestone: fine. What region is next?
[12:37] Udo Swashbuckler: oooh :)))) alors du Rhone Alpes, il pourrait être, Laura?
[12:37] Rosie Gray: since now we have 2 regions with names, we need to actually do something with them
[12:38] Tor Karlsvalt: Make signs?
[12:38] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): The committee is working region by region, so the next region is Locus Amoenus.
[12:38] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): Yes, we need to do that!
[12:38] Rosie Gray: or did you want to wait until they are all named?
[12:38] Laura Azalee: non je suis à cotè de la vallee d'aoste
[12:38] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): I don't have a preference, Rosie ㋡
[12:38] Laura Azalee: peut etre... 120-130 km de geneve
[12:39] Rosie Gray: okay, then let's get them all named first
[12:39] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): The Chancellor gets to manage the estate ㋡
[12:39] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker) chuckles.
[12:39] Rosie Gray: lol
[12:39] Rosie Gray: but there was one thing I was thinking about
[12:39] Tanoujin Milestone: we need the guild
[12:39] Rosie Gray: if I may mention it?
[12:39] Tanoujin Milestone: ;)
[12:39] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): We could put up temporary road signs, and then also put up road signs for the older sims
[12:39] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): Sure!
[12:39] Rosie Gray: I know that you had the idea of renaming all of the parcels to coincide with the roads names
[12:40] Udo Swashbuckler: oh Laura :) vous n êtes pas très loin de Zermatt
[12:40] Rosie Gray: and give them numbers
[12:40] Udo Swashbuckler: (si je ne me trompe pas hihi)
[12:40] Tor Karlsvalt: maybe a paper signs on a post. hehe
[12:40] Rosie Gray: and I think that's a really nice idea
[12:40] Laura Azalee: non pas très loins
[12:40] Rosie Gray: but, I realized that it would be a huge amount of work for Sudane
[12:40] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker) nods
[12:40] Udo Swashbuckler: i m from the Grisons, Laura, originally from Langwies, but now living and working in Zürich
[12:40] Rosie Gray: and also for the EM's because most people when they purchase a parcel rename it
[12:40] Rosie Gray: so keeping track might be really hard
[12:41] Laura Azalee: ah I was in Zurich many years ago... lovely city
[12:41] Rosie Gray: although... thinking again
[12:41] Tanoujin Milestone: we would need a map for reference
[12:41] Rosie Gray: the Casper site does keep the name
[12:41] Udo Swashbuckler: :)
[12:41] Rosie Gray: yes we sould
[12:41] Rosie Gray: would*
[12:41] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): We could do each region little by little
[12:41] Tor Karlsvalt: ooo, I was just making a map of our surrounding world.
[12:41] Rosie Gray: anyway, just something to mull over
[12:41] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): Yes ㋡
[12:41] Rosie Gray: are you Tor?
[12:42] Tor Karlsvalt: yeah, actually the roads might be part of a huge parcel of common land in many areas. Not really one specific parcel name.
[12:42] Tor Karlsvalt: yeah
[12:42] Tor Karlsvalt: I was naming the major sims nearby
[12:42] Tanoujin Milestone: that depends on the region
[12:43] Tor Karlsvalt: But we could make a map of the roads and keep it for reference.
[12:43] Tanoujin Milestone: all we need is the roads and the position of the tier boxes
[12:44] Laura Azalee: I would need a map all right.. I still don't know my way around...
[12:44] Rosie Gray: ㋡
[12:44] Udo Swashbuckler smiles
[12:46] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): Well, if there are no objections, I suggest we adjourn
[12:46] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): We can still talk about other things
[12:46] Rosie Gray: I second that
[12:46] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): All in favour?
[12:46] Rosie Gray: aye
[12:46] Laura Azalee: aye
[12:46] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): ay
[12:46] Tor Karlsvalt: aye
[12:46] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): *aye
[12:46] Udo Swashbuckler nods
[12:47] Tor Karlsvalt: True Laura, a map might be useful
[12:47] Tanoujin Milestone: aye, aye
[12:47] Gaius Tiberius Curio (guillaume.mistwalker): We are adjourned
