This is a follow-on task to http://www.google-melange.com/gci/task/view/google/gci2013/5570107921137664 that anyone may claim.
This task involves adjusting the 3D logo model so that it is perfectly symmetric. You will need to use either MGED or Archer to edit the .g file, learn/know the basics of modeling with BRL-CAD, and edit the model to make this change.

To do this task, you will likely use either the 'oed' command or the Matrix edit mode and/or learn how to appropriately rotate objects. This may only require a simple rotation or it may require something more extensive.
This task will be validated by running "rt -s1024", bringing that image into Photoshop or Gimp, duplicating the layer, flipping the duplicate horizontally, and then adjusting the layer compositing to "Exclusion" so that alignment can be seen. You can try that process yourself to know when you're done. Here's how that looks if they're not symmetric: http://brlcad.org/tmp/asymmetric.png
I would like to work on this task.
This task has been assigned to Sharan Narayan. You have 72 hours to complete this task, good luck!

That's looking a lot better, but do you think you can get it exact. It looks like there's a slight shape discrepancy on the outer top portion of the bottom two circles (before they overlap). If you render "rt -s2048 -o test.png" and flip that rendering, you can really see it.
One of the mentors has sent this task back for more work. Talk to the mentor(s) assigned to this task to satisfy the requirements needed to complete this task, submit your work again and mark the task as complete once you re-submit your work.

It was a little tough to do very minor adjsutments in millimeters
Thanks to you I learnt how to export raytraced image, I haf been using printscreen for it
I accidently uploaded the wrong file-t.png
The Right file is the done.png, you can still see the line if you zoom in very close like 3200% about 1px line, can you excuse that please because the shape of the logo is very confusing hard to align just by looking at the exclusion photo.I had to do 30 hit and trial images(checked my recycle bin) ;)
Congratulations, this task has been completed successfully.
I remembered in 2012, there were tasks to model hourglass,caffine molecule,gemstone etc
There were also some diagrams of primitives left to make.. :-)
