[04:01] no [04:02] apparently he posts on the forum occasionally [04:03] ugh [04:03] he is being most non-responsive [04:03] I have seen posts to the forums though [04:04] its a real shame we can't pool resources [04:05] indeed [04:06] as the current guide I wouldn't recommend to anyone [04:06] i wish he would specify which repository is needed for which application, rather than telling all users to add all repositories [04:07] the marilliat one is annoying [04:07] as stable and testing don't have am64 [04:08] mkde, the word "mains" common in the UK [04:08] ? [04:08] for power [04:08] yes [04:08] Ie, you computer is on the mains [04:08] yes [04:08] if you are asking me ;) [04:08] what about AC power [04:08] what about plugged in? [04:08] is that common? [04:08] both are ok [04:08] yeah [04:09] mains in almost unknown here [04:09] I am working on an interface [04:09] oh right [04:09] just write it in en_CA and get it translated into en_GB and en_US [04:09] ;p === mkde takes a long look in the direction of rosetta [04:10] right [04:10] we need something working now [04:11] and then we can worry about that [04:11] is for the gnome-power project [04:11] right [04:11] i was just joking about the en variants, I think they are a waste of time [04:11] hmm, debatable [04:11] but yes, generally, they are weasel ways out [04:11] you can look for common words [04:12] do you have glade installed? [04:12] i'm on windows 2000 [04:12] and a pretty unstable one at that [04:12] ahhh [04:13] I just assume that someone is one Ubuntu [04:13] do you have access to an ubuntu system? [04:13] not right now === mkde points at mdke [04:13] i'm at school atm [04:13] ah [04:14] I seee [04:14] you are at work [04:14] what are you taking?

[04:23] what do you think you want to integrate it [04:25] hadn't got to reading that yet [04:25] will do so now and respond to you [04:26] froud, how come we use QT poxml scripts rather than python ones? is one better than the other? [04:26] Ok, if you want just go ahead with the installation guide [04:26] we found problems with the gnome stuff [04:27] we got kde stuff working first [04:27] oh right [04:27] fair enough [04:27] the end result is the same so no big issue [04:27] true [04:28] although if both work, it would seem logical to use the one with least dependencies. But if one is easier than the other, then fair enough [04:28] wel we did not get the gnome ones to work [04:28] yeah [04:28] ok [04:29] jeffsch: nice one on the style guide dude [04:29] froud, looks good === froud still needs to update the i18n.sh [04:30] yeah, think you can do it [04:30] probably [04:30] I think it should be a new chapter at the end [04:30] ok [04:30] I made the first installation chapter the basic [04:31] froud, oh i wanted to ask you: would you check http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/DocteamStepByStepl18n to make sure I haven't got anything wrong [04:31] stuff like IP config and partions I also placed in their own chanters [04:31] sure [04:31] thx [04:37] i'm off now [04:37] back on this evening [04:38] bye all have fun [04:38] ok the doc looks good [04:38] just made a small change [04:38] froud, thanks [04:38] there will be no branch of hoary [04:38] of a release only a tag [04:38] right, yeah just put that in as a parenthesis cos enrico seemed keen [04:38] feel free to correct/expand on anything [04:38] it's compound enouh [04:39] sure [04:39] thanks [04:39] c ya later [04:39] bye [04:42] froud, how do I do a if else [04:42] ie if you run 98 [04:42] vs if you run NT [04:43] Makes sense, perhaps a chapter with sect1 on each and intro para to cover the in then. Can also do this at the top of the doc [04:43] remember to consider both gnome and kde here [04:44] although install is mostly about GNU/Linux [04:44] the netinstall doc is only how to boot the installer, so the rest holds [04:45] yes, so perhaps just if then at the begin of the doc [04:45] what do you think [04:46] please remember to ass yourself as an author and the author of the document [04:46] add [04:46] :-) [04:46] yorp [04:46] sorry [05:31] going to lectures [05:31] c ya later === froud is now known as froud-away === maskie [~maskie@196-30-108-202.uudial.uunet.co.za] has joined #ubuntu-doc === guioum [~guioum@dsl-207-112-56-187.tor.primus.ca] has joined #ubuntu-doc === jeffsch [~jeffsch@fatwire-202-96.uniserve.ca] has left #ubuntu-doc ["gotta]
