JaneWjsgotangco: edit it!:P02:05
ograhttp://edubuntu.org/EdubuntuOneDotZeroRoadmap02:05
JaneWoli can we point everyone to your wiki pages?02:05
ograsure02:05
ograthey are a bit draftish, but surely for the public02:06
JaneWok if you care to take a look at that it's a highlevel roadmap from here to the release date02:06
jsgotangcoahh august 1102:06
jelknermilestone one says aug. 1102:06
JaneWthat's next FRIDAY02:06
jelknerare we still on for that?02:06
JaneWyes02:06
ograi hope we have a working install CD by aug 1102:06
jsgotangconice02:07
=== jsgotangco cracks whip
ograubuntus X is still not installable02:07
JaneWogra: can you give us a few sentences of where you are at with the development please?02:07
jelkneri thought breezy was still broken?02:07
JaneWjsgotangco: oi that's my job!02:07
ograi have made an upgrade yesterday and it took me half the day to get a working X agaiun... :(02:07
ograJaneW, sure02:07
=== tangledbank [~tangledba@cpc2-hem14-4-0-cust73.lutn.cable.ntl.com] has joined #ubuntu-meeting
JaneWhow is Breezy looking atm, ito build status?02:08
ograthe server package is nearly done, all seeds are sorted (seeds are the base for metapackages like edubuntu-server/-desktop)02:08
=== sivang [~sivang@box79162.elkhouse.de] has joined #ubuntu-meeting
sivanghi ogra 02:08
ograi'm lagging with the main inclusion reports... (i suck at buerocracy)02:08
JaneWogra: can someone help you with that?02:09
ograthe edubuntu-desktop package sits still in universe as long as mnot all reports are approved... 02:09
ograJaneW, sure... Burgundavia already wanted to do them.... 02:09
ograbut we still have a lot of them...02:09
JaneWcool, let him!02:09
=== luis_ [~louie@c-66-31-46-131.hsd1.ma.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting
ograanother odd thing is the mediawiki package....02:10
JaneWhe;s not here now... too early for him I think02:10
JaneWyes02:10
jsgotangcothats strange her barely sleeps :)02:10
ogradebian asked me to not include my quick made hackish package but to use theirs... the problem is that not much development is going on there02:10
=== infinito [~infinito@75.Red-80-59-227.pooles.rima-tde.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting
ograthey are still discussing basics and i fear thy wont have it ready in time02:11
ograa third thing is that gcompris obviously doesnt compile with our compiler... gcompris is a hell of a package and takes time to fix (43MB source)02:12
ogranow to the positive stuff02:13
jsgotangcoit even has svgalib02:13
ograwe have a classroom control tool now... its over 60% done....02:13
JaneWwait02:13
JaneWhow serious are these issues?02:13
JaneWcan we live with them being broken and not included (worst case scenario?)02:14
ograi had the choice to either rewrite the backend for TeacherTool to work with our LTSPO implementation or to do something from scratch02:14
ograi decided for the latter...02:14
ograJaneW, gcompris is essential ...02:14
ogramediawiki *can* be replaced by moin, but we committed otherwise....02:15
highvoltageLTSPO?02:15
JaneWnod02:15
ogramy package would work, but i doubt its upgradeable wit the otally differen built debian package we'll have in the next release02:15
ograhighvoltage, -O indeed02:16
=== ogra wants a new keyboard *cry*
ograso i'd like to see these two packages in....02:16
jsgotangcogcompris not in edubuntu would be a shame since a lot of people like it02:17
ograanother thing is that pitti doesnt want to support php4 02:17
jsgotangcoespecially for early education02:17
ograin no case...02:18
highvoltagegeez02:18
ograall the packages we use are built for php4, but breezy is planned to have php5 (wich entered the disto yesterday or so)02:18
=== flint [~flint@209.246.42.100] has joined #ubuntu-meeting
ograso i have to rebuild all php based packages and test them again php5... mediawiki is known to have issues...02:19
jelknerand moodle?02:19
ogra(besides the two weekly securiy updates you need anyway to keep it half way secure)02:19
flintorga, one way to keep it secure is to front end it with a secure web application02:20
ogramoodle *should* work with php5 i havent seen negative reports yet, but as i said, php5 wasnt available before beginning of the week)02:20
ograflint, haha....02:20
flintsorry ogra not orga can't type02:20
ograflint, you mean a frontend to the frontend ?02:21
flintNo, (as they say) seriously folks why not put schootool in front of it?02:21
flintThe only way to get to moodle is through schooltool (in this fantasy)02:21
ograflint, we have schooltool in parallel02:21
ogra(the only server app tha doesnt cause headaches for me currently)02:22
flinthow hard would series be?  (just asking)02:22
flintI know, I like schooltool!02:22
ograand i'd like to keep moodle open for custiomization by the teacher02:22
ograas well as mdiawiki...02:23
ogramedia even02:23
flintgotcha.02:23
highvoltageogra: is that the same keyboard you use for coding?02:23
ograhighvoltage, mostly, yes... but vim has a great highlighting ;)02:23
jelknerthe big question for me is: can we go ahead with our free software day plans?02:24
ograjelkner, free software day plans ??02:24
jelknerin other words, will it be possible to install a usable edubuntu server by sept 1002:25
flintor... to put it another way, how do I get my own ubuntu toaster?02:25
jelknerwe have a few projects in the works waiting for edubuntu02:25
ograjelkner, see the roadmap... i'm plannung to match the milestones ;)02:25
flintmy question is what happened to Johnathan and Hilton's iso...02:25
jelknerthen it looks good02:25
jelknerogra: but you are depending on breezy work02:26
highvoltageflint: our iso's aren't usable02:26
ograthe essential part where i need most help will be the testing over the next month02:26
jelknerwhich isn't even usable yet02:26
highvoltageor let me put it this way, it's really not ready for wide-spread use.02:26
jelknerwe are ready willing and eager to test02:26
ograjelkner, yes, thats the prob... the X transition took extensively longer then planned02:26
JaneWlagging, but hangon guys, let's finish getting thing developed first...02:26
highvoltageflint: and it's Jonathan, not Johnathan, btw ;)02:26
jsgotangcoheh02:27
flintto quote the man "release early and often" Jonathan02:27
JaneWogra: where you finished with your update?02:27
ograjelkner, the php5 decision is still pending and php5 isnt widely tested yet...02:27
JaneWI was trying to distill the salient part out to record02:27
ograJaneW, i think so02:27
JaneWogra: do you need any further help right now?02:28
flintsorry about the misspellings, it is a gift part of FITS02:28
JaneWogra: and will you contact Corey for your inclusion reports?02:28
ograJaneW, the report stuff would be a good candidate02:28
JaneWflint: I am typo queen!02:28
JaneWogra: will you speak to corey or should I?02:28
ograas you like... i'm around anyway... so who sees him first :)02:29
JaneWogra: does the php thing cause you a lot of extra work?02:29
JaneWogra: ok, let;s both nag him, I seem to be good at annoying ppl today....02:29
ograJaneW, sure... but keeping both would be the oddest we could do...02:29
=== carsten [~carsten@xdslr167.osnanet.de] has joined #ubuntu-meeting
ograthere has to be a decision... php is the worst stuff we have... and we need the most appropriate solution to be able to support it02:30
JaneWogra: what are you going to do about gcompris?02:30
flintJeff is concerned because our targets in DC are the Regional Public School Libraries 02:30
ograJaneW, contacting upstream...02:30
=== highvolt1ge [~Jono@196.36.161.235] has joined #ubuntu-meeting
ograflint, can you elaborate... 02:31
JaneWogra: what would happen if it can;t get fixed? Do we still have a product?02:31
ograJaneW, seed change (rip out gcompris) ....02:31
ograJaneW, but gcompris is essential, we cant drop it...02:31
JaneWogra: so this is a biggie, by when must it be fixed, at the latest?02:32
=== bska|mobile [~bskahan@pool-162-84-232-40.ny5030.east.verizon.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting
JaneWogra: and is there anyone I can nag?02:32
flintogra, It has to do with proxying moodle through the Zope3 schooltool application.  It is just an idea at this time...02:32
jelknerogra: what is the status of child's play?02:32
ograit should be ready for M1 but during M1-2 shoudl also be sufficient02:33
ograjelkner, is that a complete replacemet ? i would rather see it as add on02:33
ograflint, that doesnt solve my php problem... its just another webserver in fron then02:34
jelknerthey are different, so it is an add-on, but they are aimed at similar target users02:34
ograjelkner, so you mean childsplay as a fallback for the worst case scenarion ?02:34
jelknergcompris is more mature, but child's play is written in Python02:34
ogra-n02:34
flintyou are correct.  it merely "solves" the issues of security...02:34
=== mhz [~phlak@mhz.fan.moinmoin] has joined #ubuntu-meeting
ograflint, my current problem is to find out if it works with php5 at all... we had no php5 packages until beginning of this week... and we wont support 4 and 502:35
JaneWjelkner: do you think it's a feasible plan b?02:36
=== mhz (sorry he's late but glad he could make it)
jelkneri'm not in a position to know02:36
jelkneri could use either, but i'm starting with new installations02:36
ograJaneW, feasable no, but calming down the rage of our users :)02:36
jelknerwe may have folks who already use gcompris02:36
jelknerand who would be upset without it02:36
ograthere are a lot shool projects that write extensions for gcompris....02:37
JaneWogra: ok worst case scenario, but certainly not preferable02:37
ograthey wouldnt have a base... i think dropping gcompris is out of discussion02:37
highvoltageogra: we use mediawiki and moodle with php5 in tuxlabs at the moment02:37
ograhighvoltage, but not the debian packages... i'm bound to them :(02:38
highvoltageah, of course.02:38
JaneWogra: do we have to escalate this issue to mdz?02:38
flintogra, I see the problem now as a functional issue, beyond security.02:38
JaneWogra: seem to be jeopardising us quite heavily02:38
ograJaneW, gcompris ? he knows about it02:38
flintgot my vote!02:39

jsgotangcowhat is there to write when there is no working system heh02:42
jsgotangcoseriously though, tuxlabs cookbook02:42
JaneW*sulk*02:42
flintharsh jane, very harsh...02:42
jsgotangcoJaneW: source?02:42
JaneWhighvoltage: did you get anything from Jean yet?02:42
highvoltageJaneW: no, he's in a part of Nairobi now where he doesn't have e-mail access.02:43
=== philipp [~chatzilla@194.198.203.62.cust.bluewin.ch] has joined #ubuntu-meeting
JaneWjsgotangco: yes, waiting on that02:43
jsgotangcoif there is none, i might decide on writing one from scratch *doh*02:43
JaneWhighvoltage: does someone else have a copy of it?02:43
JaneWjsgotangco: can it not be scrapped?02:44
jsgotangcono way02:44
jsgotangcowe'll find a way02:44
JaneWsigh02:44
highvoltageJaneW: i think we might have sent the publishers the source, i'll find out. i think they might have gotten it directly from jean, but they might have it still...02:44
jsgotangcoi want the cookbook02:44
ogragrep the online version02:44
ogragrab02:44
jsgotangcoyeah02:44
JaneWI can cut and paste into a doc for you ;P02:44
jsgotangcolol02:44
jsgotangcosure that would work short term02:44
=== jsgotangco prefers source doc
mhzogra, Will TuxLabs be the 1st version of Edubuntu Documentation?02:44
JaneWok, let's just focus on short term for now?02:45
jsgotangcoJaneW: sure that's workable02:45
flintwhere is the online tuxlab cookbook?  (for the record...) 02:45
ogramhz, it will be a add on... but we'll need specific docs too...02:45
JaneWany progress is good right now IMO02:45
jsgotangcoi'll start just to keep things rolling and not to make it to complicated to lessen the barrier for volunteers02:45
mhzogra, but if translations are done... will we take Cookbook?02:45
JaneWjsgotangco: just keep nagging highvoltage to get the source though, he likes that ;)02:45
mhzogra, (tuxlabs, I meant)02:46
jsgotangcoJaneW: i have chains if you have your whip, i'll try that thanks02:46
knutyflint: http://learnlinux.tsf.org.za/courses/web-tuxlabs.html02:46
JaneWhttp://www.upfrontsystems.co.za/Members/jean/cookbook/docbook/cookbook.html02:46
flintsweet!!!02:46
ogramhz, the cookbook is very coommon and a great source for the basice... but the specifics have to be adressed elsewhere02:46
ograbasics02:46
mhzogra, ok02:46
ogramhz, i.e. our LTSP works quite different...02:46
JaneWjsgotangco: so is that it for now, ITO documentation?02:47
jsgotangcoJaneW: yup guess so, no usable system, no reason to discuss further02:47
mhzogra, I'll be working on a MoinMoin wiki CookBook, so I can start from TuxLabs and then??02:47
JaneWok agreed02:47
ogramhz, we committed to mediawiki...02:47
mhzoh02:47
JaneW * Art work, what's done, what still needs to be done, and by  whom. 02:48
ograas per user requirement02:48
JaneWlast time we discussed the following:02:48
JaneW1. the folder icon, 02:48
JaneW 2. wallpaper, 02:48
JaneW 3. splash screen...02:48
JaneW 4. gdm theme02:48
JaneW 5. Jonathan to create a flying penguins edubuntu 'please wait' screen.02:48
JaneW 6. CD Cover & CD label02:48
JaneW 7. Edubuntu web site artwork02:48
flintorga makes a crucial point.  The mdz version LTSP will not match the docs 02:48
JaneWhighvoltage: did the first verions of item 5.02:48
highvoltageon #1, ogra and i looked at some folder icons.02:48
ograhighvoltage and me talked about the icon theme stuff...02:48
knutyogra: cookbook ... specifics elsewhere: That's why we made this book: http://developer.skolelinux.no/dokumentasjon/newdriftbok/02:48
highvoltagethere's a bit too much to replace, so we'll defer it to the next version.02:48
ograyeah02:49
ogratons of folder icons to redraw... so too much for now02:49
JaneWhighvoltage: you mean the folder icon stays?02:49
highvoltagewho's tasked to do #2, #3 and #4?02:49
highvoltageJaneW: yep. is that a problem for you?02:50
ograknuty, 80% of the stuff covered there i'd love to have automated and not to poke the user with it :)02:50
ograknuty, but its a great source ... we'll include a package as add on if you have one...02:51
JaneWhighvoltage: no, I was just clarifying, making notes.02:51
ograknuty, err, whats coyote linux ?02:51
highvoltageok02:51
flintcoyote linux is a router, nat firewall on a floppy disk02:51
JaneWitems 2, 3,4,6,7 still need owners...02:51
JaneWthe next person to comment gets them!02:51
ograah02:51
JaneWnot YOU!02:52
JaneW:P02:52
ogra:p02:52
highvoltageblah02:52
JaneWlol02:52
highvoltagei like doing theming.02:52
knutyogra: You cant automate the flash installation ... or handling the LDAP.diff-s in a sane way ... Because thats the only thing people do after installing the system :-)02:52
JaneWogra really wants to do everything02:52
ograJaneW, naaah02:52
highvoltageah yes, it's a curse.02:52
ograknuty, no LDAP in our first release02:52
highvoltagei think ogra and i suffer it both.02:52
JaneWso who has artistic flair, apptitude and wants to do some cool stuff for us?02:53
teolemoni can do some translations and websitework if you need some02:53
ograknuty, a standalone server doesnt need one :)02:53
knutyorga: coyote is firewall. There are a lot of different networks out there.02:53
teolemonan very basic graphic work02:53
teolemonand02:53
highvoltagei have aptitude, it doesn't have super cow powers though :(02:53
flintI volunteer elkner to do #4, the theme!02:53
ograknuty, right...02:53
knutyorga: I know that you dont have LDAP. Our book deskribes the things you have to do when operating and upkeeping the system02:53
knutyorga: after the installation02:54
mhzJaneW, why not asking for volunteers in the ML ?02:54
JaneWpok we need to work on getting artwork drummed up02:54
ograknuty, i'd like to have that automated for our next version... just asking 1-2 questions02:54
JaneWwho ever can do something please try, and we'll take it from there02:54
JaneWmhz: yes I think so02:54
flintpart of the linux router project (www.coyotelinux.com/)02:54
highvoltagegood suggestion.02:55
jsgotangcoerm02:55
JaneWhighvoltage: any chance you can out a nice upbeat soliciting message together?02:55
knutyorga: to make a debconf-net-install-solution is good02:55
JaneWs/out/put02:55
highvoltageJaneW: task me on it02:55
JaneWcool thanks02:55
JaneWwe have an issue re CDs and printed material02:56
mhzwhat issue?02:56
JaneWon Fri I said it was happening and now it may not be.02:56
mhzoh02:56
JaneWI am still trying to get clarity though...02:56
flintjane, what format does te CD and printed material need to arrive in?02:56
ograknuty, i thin about some kind of automated clustering of the servers to work together and share free ressources, but thats all breezy+1 and i have to focus on breezy02:57
mhzogra, I'd love to see that clustering working !02:57
ogra:)02:57
=== ogra would love to have a base to put it on top first ;)
mhzlol02:58
knutyorga: I know :-). That's why i pointed out what we have to do to maintain the system after the installation - and this experiences could be taken into consideraton on 1.0+102:58
=== mhz is convincing a chool here in Chile that has lots of PC's and are testing clustering methods
ograknuty, yep... but i dont even demote any brain cells to brezy+1 yet ;)02:59
flintogra...the ibm Z-900 version would be nice :^)02:59
ograflint, send me one for testing *g*02:59
JaneWour time is almost up, any final issues/comments?03:00
flintnote that I have patience and will wait for the fulfillment of a single box versioin...03:00
jsgotangcohey guys, i have to go, its already 9pm and i still have some issues to settle here at home seems like a nice meeting though03:00
teolemonJane,why don't you like the current folder icon ?03:00
ograteolemon, it doesnt look lke folder03:00
ograelse its fine...03:00
jelknerjsgotangco: see you later, Jerome!03:00
ogra(colors lining etc)03:00
flintjane still has numbers without names next to them,  I know how much she likes these columns of numbers and names.....03:00
teolemonah ok03:00
JaneWteolemon: I haven;t even seen it...03:00
JaneWbye jsgotangco 03:00
highvoltageogra: perhaps it looks like a folder to kids?03:01
teolemoni'm a 18 year ol03:01
ograhighvoltage, thats my big hope ;)03:01
highvoltageogra: i think you're just to old to appreciate it :)03:01
=== highvoltage ducks
teolemonnot a kid anymore :-(03:01
JaneWif I have no volunteers I select names at random03:01
ograhighvoltage, no need to duck, youre right, i'm an old fart :)03:01
teolemonhighvoltage yes that's it :-P03:01
JaneWhighvoltage: hey watch out!03:01
teolemonyou need someone to try to do some new icons ?03:02

JaneWok let's leave ogra to get on with it03:02
JaneWogra: please shout if you need ANYTHING03:02
ograabsolutely03:02
JaneWelse keep the discussion going in #edubuntu and on the ML... the countdown has begun.03:03
mhzJaneW, my only flairs so far are related to documenting and Translating, as well as admining MoinMoin and testing apps for education03:03
JaneWthanks everyone03:03

highvoltageteolemon: add your icons here: http://www.edubuntu.org/EdubuntuIcons03:03

ogramhz, we might fall back to moin if mediawiki turns out to not work as we need...03:04
mhzyou will get back, I know03:04
ogramhz, but the target is to make it work...03:04
teolemonhttp://art.gnome.org/images/thumbnails/icon/ICON-dlg-etiquette-Shot.png03:04

mhzogra, yes, I thought so03:10
ograjbailey, hey... [linesca]  already asked me about you03:10
philipphighvoltage: are we sticking with the wiki for now?03:11
highvoltagephilipp: JaneW and I are going to make an alternative plan with the hosting.03:11

jbaileyogra: Did I miss him? =(03:11
jelknercya next week everyone...03:11
ograjbailey, nope... he hangs around in #edubuntu03:11
jbaileyAh, I had missed the [] 's n the /whois.  Thanks!03:11
ogra:)03:12
knutyogra: What's about the LTSP-issue?03:12
ograjbailey, he has new HW to test ;)03:12
ograknuty, ?? what should be about it ...03:12
teolemonjust a question: are there any plans to recreate the ubuntu logo with children03:12
mhzogra, When I meant my vote is for MoinMoin is basically because I have been working for 1 month on project (LatinAmerican) called WikiLearn (soon to be released next 2 weeks). So far, the only wiki that has proved to be the right one, is MoinMoin03:12
jbaileyogra: Cool. =)03:13
knutyogra: It says:  Fix LTSP login manager at the OneDotZeroRoadmap03:13
ogramhz, nearly all teachers we had at the summit were only familiar with mediawiki...03:13

teolemonthat's the one we use on the French community03:13
ograknuty, yes, ldm currently looks quite odd... i have the new design ready, but didnt wave it in the code yet03:13
teolemonwiki.ubuntu-fr.org03:13
mhzogra, but that doesn mean is the right one for educational purposes. Nearly ALL Chilean teachers are only familiar with Microsoft products :)03:14
knutyogra: ok :-)03:14
ogramhz, but they shouted they want it includd, so we folowed the demand03:14
mhzok, I understand that.03:14
ograhmm... add some l's and e' at appropriate places03:14
mhz:)03:15
philipphighvoltage: feel free to ping me for help with the website anytime, once you got the server sorted out...03:15
highvoltagephilipp: thanks03:16
ograthe applist is not very much arguable at the moment, we can change everything for breezy+1 but for now the target is rather sabilization of the current selection03:16
highvoltagephilipp: i haven't forgotten about you :)03:16
mhzthen, I will have to prove WikiLearn needs Edubuntu and Edubuntu will benifit from WikiLearn. It's a pity Moin is not GUI flavoured yet.03:16
philipphighvoltage: glad your short term memory is intact! :-)03:17
ogramhz, moin is available, as all the other 17000 ubuntu packages... its just not in the default install03:17
ograits only one apt-get away :)03:17
teolemoni second that,a good explanation on the doc with the main pros and cons for each03:18
teolemonin03:18
teolemonthe doc03:18
mhzogra, unfortunatelly... last time I checked, APT was not as good as untaring03:19
mhz(the moin.deb I mean)03:19
ogramhz, from the debian or ubuntu repository ? or a foreign packaged ne ?03:20
ograone even03:20
mhzfrom Debian reps.03:20
ograwhat was the problem ?03:20
mhzand from Ubuntu one (1.5 months ago)03:21
ograit normally should leave you with a basic default setup that you can easily customize 03:21
mhzofficial installation instructions were not 100% applicable for .deb03:21
ograat least thats what debian packages normally do03:22
mhzso users tend to get lost03:22
mhzand some of them who were clever enough, step by #moin (where we helped them)03:22
mhzogra, one thing I am getting lost now here is: Mediawiki will be included in Edubuntu, but will that mean Ubuntu websites will no longer be Moin, too?03:24
ogranah03:24
ograwe love moin....03:24
mdkemoin <303:24
ograi wouldnt even go near mediawiki if there were no user demand.... i *hate* php and its insecuritys03:25
mhz:D03:25
Seveasand mediawiki is quite a terrible wiki too :)03:25
mhztoo? LOL03:25
ograbut the base for wikipedia...03:25
mhzogra, have you ever tested MoinPedia?03:26
ograwhich was the main concern....03:26
TreenaksSeveas: it's better than it used to be03:26
ogramhz, nope03:26
mhzAlexander (#moin) did that just for fun03:26
mhztook all DB from Wikipedia and used it as MoinMoin /data03:27

teolemoni'd be temptated to say that php security on school networks isn't that important.You would need really gifted students or really twisted people wanting to target schools03:28
ograbut lets rather move tha conversation to #edubuntu adn make the channel free for other meetings03:28
teolemonbut i'm perhaps heavily mistaking03:28
mhzanyways, I need Ubuntu (at leat Edubuntu site) to stay with Moin because, WikiLearn will only be opossible to exist with MoinMoin (so far). And so, after people (users of WikiLearn) get used to Moin, they will also be ready to contribute to Edubuntu03:28

pitticarlos: so you wnat to talk about OO.o l10n?07:35
carlosso, Firefox and OO.org integration...07:35
carlosdoko, pitti, Mark wants those language packs as a priority now07:35
carlosso I we are defining an spec of all steps we should follow to get it done07:36
carlosa kind of step by step guide07:36
pitticarlos: you mean updating oo.o/ffox langpacks with rosetta data?07:36
carloswith the name who will do it 07:36
carlospitti, importing it into Rosetta and then update them from Rosetta, yes07:36
pitti(I hope you don't mean changing ffox/oo.o to use gettext)07:37
carlospitti, no way ;-)07:37
pittiso 1) we should package the tools to convert oo.o/ffox translations to gettext and 2) call them in debian/rules?07:37
carlosMark wants that the import into Rosetta and the export from Rosetta is done the same way we do it for the other language packs07:37
carlospitti, right07:38
carlosI think there are already .deb packages available from Debian, doko?07:38
pittiwell, the import side is possible with that07:38
pittibut not the export07:38
pittisince langpack-o-matic can't build ffox locale packs07:38
dokocarlos: yes, pootle is in the archive07:38
carlospitti, well, the idea is to extend it so you can generate .mo files, firefox's language packs or oo.org language packs07:39
pittiinstead, there should be a new debian/rules target to pull updates from rosetta (in the locale packs for ffox/ooo)07:39
carlosdoko, cool07:39
dokocarlos: still the problem how to split/concatenate these into manageable chunkgs07:39
pitticarlos: *cough*07:40
carlosdoko, Mark said that the idea of having one .pot file per directory is good. He agrees that 250 files are too much and only one is too big07:40
carlosdoko, it's a problem to solve as part of our step by step guide07:40
carlospitti, so you want that the deb build fetches files from Rosetta?07:41
dokook, then I'll patch the translate-toolkit and write these files to somewhere07:41
pitticarlos: not always, but if you call "debian/rules rosetta-update" or whatever07:41
carlosdoko, the idea is to create, for instance, a po/ directory and store there the .pot and .po files, martin's script will take care to move them into Rosetta07:42
carlosdoko, like the other packages do it07:42
pitti^ yes, that's what I tought for import07:42
pittiin principle, this should be possible for both ooo and ffox07:42
dokocarlos: you need to keep the sdf file07:42
carlospitti, hmm, we don't have a direct download features, so that would be a problem07:43
carlosdoko, yeah, that's another thing to talk about07:43
carlosdoko, we are not going to store that .sdf file into rosetta so we should decide a place that will be available on build time07:43
pitticarlos: where's the difference whether debian/rules or langpack-o-matic grabs the translations?07:43
dokoit's fine for me to generate these directories07:44
carlospitti, well, atm we will send you an email with a link to the language pack07:44
carlospitti, so it depends on the way you want to implement it07:44
carlospitti, I'm not 100% sure Mark will be happy to handle that in a different way, but If you think it's too hard to do it, I think we could convince him07:44
carlosok, lets write a list of steps to follow that we need to do to get language packs done07:45
pitticarlos: sure, and I can just take the ffox translations out of it and feed it to debian/rules somehow07:45
pitticarlos: alternatively, I can create a "wrapper" that apt-get sources the locale packs, and updates them from the rosetta tarball07:45
pitticarlos: it just doesn't fit into the current langpack-o-matic07:46
carlosok07:46
pitticarlos: but of course I can write a mozlangpack-o-matic and an ooolangpack-o-matic :-)07:46
dokopitti: yes please :-)07:46
pittijust not throw it all into one huge script07:46
carlosFirst the easier one, Firefox (feel free to add any extra step I'm missing):07:46
pittidoko: erm, s/I can/can be done/ :-)07:47
doko:-(07:47
carlos1.- Add an extra rule on build time to generate a .pot file and a set of .po files per language pack07:47
pittiATM I don't even know how to translate back and forth mozilla stuff, but it seems to be possible07:48
carlos2.- Current process will send them to Rosetta, Rosetta will import them and people will translate them07:48
carlospitti, there are scripts that do that07:48
pitticarlos: s/language pack/mozilla-firefox-locale-all/?07:48
carloswhat ever it's called, yes07:48
pittierm, rather from firefox itself, not the locale packs07:49
carlos3. Once per month, an email will be sent to martin? with the link to a tarball with all updates done to firefox (a set of .po files)07:49
pittiso far that's clear07:49
pitticarlos: btw, I tried "that script" the other day, and it plainly refused to work, but oh well...07:49
doko/usr/bin/moz2po07:49
doko/usr/bin/po2moz07:49
dokofrom pootle07:49
pittidoko: oh, cool07:50
pittiwill try that07:50
carlos4. an script will download that tarball and will regenerate a new mozilla-firefox-locale-all07:50
carlosAm I missing anything?07:50
carlosI think that's all needed for firefox, right?07:51
carlosdoko, do we need anything other than the .po files to create the firefox language pack?07:51
pitticarlos: the trouble lies in details, but in general that's the plan, yes07:51
dokocarlos: I don't know, never did look at the firefox translation stuff07:51
carlospitti, we should have those details clear after this meeting07:52
=== pitti has no idea either
carlosdoko, ok07:52
carloslets assume for now that the .po file is the only needed thing07:52
carlosI will try to investigate it a bit07:53
carlospitti, which details do you think we should take into account?07:53
dokocarlos, could you spec that a bit out? how the target is named, where the files should go, and so on07:53
pitticarlos: I mean all the crappy little bugs you encounter when actually doing this, nothing that would influence the general strategy07:54
carlospitti, oh, so you talk about the usual problems will be raised while implementing it?07:54
carlosok07:54
carlosdoko, sure, that's the idea07:54
carlosdoko, after the meeting I will write a spec with a step by step guide so we know everthing needed to do the implementation07:55
carlosif anything is missing, the spec should be updated07:55
carlosSo I suppose we will need an extra meeting after that spec is ready07:55
carlosto add extra information to it07:56
carlospitti, anyway, from the process I just talked about, I assume that the email with hte link to the language pack will be enough for your, right?07:56
pittiYes, I guess so07:57
carloss/language pack/firefox language pack/07:57
carlosok07:57
pittiI actually have to try that out before I can talk about some details07:57
carlospitti, the email will be quite similar to the one you get when you request an export from rosetta07:58
carlospitti, and the content will be also similar, or do you want soemthing as complex as current language packs?07:59
pittisame structure woudl be fine for me08:00
pittito tell apart ffox, tbird, moztilla, etc.08:00
carlospitti, do all language packs for ffox, tbird and mozilla come from the same .deb source package?08:01
pitticarlos: no, in fact not, lemme explain:08:02
pitticarlos: in general, each translation for each package has _its own_ source package and deb08:02
pittithen, half a year ago most ffox translations were collected in mozilla-firefox-locale-all08:02
pittibut there are still some language-specific mozilla-firefox-locale-<lang> source packages08:02
pittiand all tbird/moz locale packages have their own source 08:03
carloshmmm08:03
carlosthat would be a problem08:03
carlosbut the priority is firefox08:03
carlosand they seem to be doing the right thing (more or less)08:03
carlosso tbird and mozilla should be supported specially, just like KDE08:04
carlospitti, the question is... do you prefer the same layout like current language packs where you have a directory per language and a .po file with the translation domain?08:05
carlosin this case the translation domain will be a name that will let you know if it's firefox, tbird or mozilla08:05
carlosas they don't use gettext and that name will not be used08:05
carlospitti, the other option is a tarball with a file per language with the language code08:06
pitticarlos: yes, that will be fine08:06
carlosas the name08:06
pitticarlos: if you do separate tarballs anyway, then I don't mind the internal format 08:06
pitticarlos: OTOH, if you stuff ffox etc. translations into the main big rosetta output tarballs, then jsut stick to the format, so langpack-o-matic can sort them out easily08:07
carlospitti, is up to you, if you say that using the big language pack tarball is ok for you08:08
carlosI prefer to do it that way08:08
pitticarlos: actually I don't see a reason why rosetta should generate a special tarball for mozilla stuff08:08
carlosso I don't need to implement an specific script to send you the firefox and oo.org translations08:09
pitticarlos: this keeps consistency in all levels but langpack-o-matic itself08:09
pitticarlos: yes, we just need to agree to special "fake" domains, like "mozilla-firefox", "mozilla-thunderbird", "mozilla"08:09
carlosok, so they will be part of the main language pack tarball08:09
pitticarlos: in fact, these domains should be determined by the POT file name that is created by the respective source package08:10
carlospitti, right08:11
carlospitti, just tell me them now and I will add them to the spec08:11
pitticarlos: I'm fine with the proposals above08:11
carlosok08:12
dokocarlos: if you send pitti the translations, who does convert the translations back to sdf files?08:12
pittioh, and "openoffice.org", and "openoffice.org2"?08:12
dokopitti: no OOo108:12
pittiWFM08:12
carlosdoko, talking about OO?08:12
dokoyes08:12
carlosdoko, we will cover them now, just a second to finish with Firefox08:12
carlospitti, we should decide who will work on which parts of the process08:13
pittifirst I'll try to export PO files in mozilla packages08:14
pittibut I have a huge pile of other stuff to do, so please don't expect it to be ready tomorrow :-/08:14
carlospitti, doko, how is your agenda?08:14
carloswhat would you do and what should I do or look for someone else to do?08:14
pitticarlos: crowded and a temporarily disabled right hand08:14
carlosok08:15
carlosdoko, and you?08:15
pitticarlos: if you have the time to actually write some small script which extracts ffox translations, I can easily incorporate it into the packages08:15
pittiif not, I'll find some time 08:15
dokocarlos: ohh, low on time as well, but ... I can generate the sdf files, and then the po files. need to look at the concatenating of the files08:16
dokoat merge time, I would expect a complete set of po files, and the old sdf files08:17
carlospitti, doko all us are busy but I think I can rearrange my tasks a bit as my last release date just happened so I don't have the timeline you have08:18
carlospitti, so I will take care of firefox conversion08:18
pitticool08:18
carlosdoko, if you would do that for oo that would be perfect08:18
carlosit's a bit more complex than firefox and I'm not sure I can catch with all your investigations08:18
carlosdoko, anyway if you think you will not have time, tell me and I will try to manage that with daf08:19
carlosabout the OO language packs08:19
carlosthe procedure should be exactly the same as with firefox08:19
carlosdoko, are all language packs inside the same source package?08:20
dokook, if daf can work on the file splitting/merging, that would be nice. I'm away tomorrow, and Friday half day08:20
carlosdoko, daf feels sick this week and I'm on a non coding week writting specs08:20
dokocarlos: we will duplicate the OOo2 source, build the binaries from one copy, and the language packs form the other copy08:20
carlosso we don't think anything will be done until next week08:21
carlosok08:21
dokook, I'll see, what I can do. I'm working on the weekend however08:21
carlosin that case, for the imports is the same as firefox08:21
carlosdoko, ok08:21
carlosthe problem comes from the file we should generate on build time08:21
carlospitti, any suggestion?08:22
pittidoko: why the split?08:22
carlospitti, so we don't need to rebuild the whole oo.org when a language pack is updated08:22
pitticarlos: "the file" == this magical sdf thingy? I don't know what it is for...08:22
pitticarlos: ah, I see08:22
dokowe should not build new binaries, just when we build new language packs08:22
carlospitti, yeah, is a file needed to rebuild the oo language pack, a kind of mapping file08:22
carlospitti, it's a file that your current .po extract script should take care about08:23
pitticarlos: well, that file can be taken right out of the source pacake, right?08:23
carlospitti, it's autogenerated when we create the .pot and .po file08:23
pittiwell, right before we update the source package with rosetta data, we could just call the po/pot extraction process to get the file08:24
pittiso,08:24
pittidebian/rules extractpo08:24
pittiupdate the po files08:24
pitticonvert back08:25
dokopitti: are you talking about OOo?08:25
carlosdoko, yeah, talking about OO.org08:25
pittibut will that existing sdf file work for completely new languages?08:25
dokopitti: not, if OOo isn't prepared for that language. i.e. valencian is not supported08:26
pittidoko: ah, so for now we can only update, but not add languages?08:26
pittiwell, but that is already a huge improvement08:27
carlospitti, the idea is that oo.org will not get new languages after the final release08:27
pittiright08:27
carlosdoko, would pitti's suggestion work?08:27
dokopitti: yes, but OOo is already prepared for most languages, even, if there's not yet any translation08:27
pittioh, cool08:28
carlosdoko, to get the .sdf file on build time again08:28
carlosdoko, Rosetta will know the sourcepackage version from where the .pot and .po files come08:28
carlosso we can provide that information just in case you need exactly that version to refresh the language packs08:29
carlosalthought anyway, it should not change as the distribution will be frozen, right?08:29
dokocarlos: ok, if I do have that information, then I need a location, where to for the sdf file08:30
pittidoko: I meant, why can't you regenerate the sdf right before updating the po files in the packagea?08:30
carlosdoko, lets say: $root/po/08:31
carlosdoko, so we execute the rule to create the .sdf and .po/.pot files again when creating a new language pack version and the files will be stored there (at $root/po/)08:32
carlosthen we will need to put there the updated .po files08:32
dokopitti: where is the old sdf file then?08:32
dokoI'm unsure, if I do understand you08:32
carlosdoko, pitti suggest to create it again before doing the po>oo-langpack conversion08:33
pittiok, let's do an example08:33
pittiooo version 1 creates po files08:33
pittirosetta imports them08:33
pittisome time advances08:33
pittiooo version 2 wants to update translations08:33
pitti(btw, I don't mean oo.o2, just two microreleases)08:33
dokopitti: let's start with 1.9.121, assume, that 1.9.123 is going into breezy, and 2.0 into breezy+1 08:34
pittiso to update translatiosn in ooo2, do we need the sdf from version 1 or 2?08:34
dokodon't play around with OOo108:34
pittino, that's not what I mean, just two different versions08:34
pittiok, so with your numbers08:34
pittito update the translatiosn in 1.9.123, do we need the sdf from 1.9.121 or 1.9.123?08:35
pittiif the imported pot file in rosetta came from 1.9.121?08:35
=== pitti defines 1:=1.9.121 and 2:=1.9.123
pitti(which was my actual idea for abstraction)08:35
dokowe need the version, that was used for generating the po export08:35
pittiah, ok08:36
pittiand that will work with the newer one?08:36
carlosdoko, ok, lets say that I get the new .pot file from 1.9.123 and merge the .po files with that file, shouldn't that be enough?08:36
carlosthe .po files merged were from 1.9.12108:37
carlosthe metadata information should be updated08:37
pittiah, I see08:37
pittithat should even be cleaner08:37
pittiyes, and we don't need to store the sdf for that08:37
dokohmm, I think, rosetta will import a new pot file, and then be able to update the po files?08:37
pittiand would ensure 100% compatibility08:37
carlosdoko, that way, I would be able to use the sdf from 1.9.123 08:37
carlosdoko, Rosetta will update all .po files every time a new .pot file is uploaded08:38
carlosautomatically08:38
pittiso, it is:08:38
pitti- fetch new po files from rosetta08:38
pittidebian/rules extractpo08:38
pitti(will generate sdf, pot, po)08:38
pittimsgmerge the po files with new rosetta data08:38
pittiand convert back to ooo format08:39
pittiall in one shot08:39
dokook, so why do I need to cope with merging back po files (from an old version) into a new version, if rosetta can do that?08:39
pittijust for safety, I guess08:39
pittidoko: msgmerge is trivially easy to call08:39
carlosdoko, just in case the new language pack from oo.org08:41
carlosis the first time that is uploaded08:41
carlosRosetta will not get the new .pot file unless the oo.org language pack is imported into Ubuntu's archive08:41
carlosso lets say that 1.9.121 is in the archive08:41
carlosand you prepare 1.9.12308:41
carlosRosetta will not have that .pot file until you upload it with latest translations from Rosetta (from 1.9.121)08:42
dokowait, it does have the 121 pot file, right?08:43
pittiyes08:43
pittiso msgmerge will filter out obsolete stuff08:43
dokook, we generate the new pot file during the 123 build08:44
carlosdoko, right08:44
carlosand that's why you should merge the .po files from rosetta08:45
dokowait, why can't rosetta do that?08:45
carlosdoko, again, Rosetta will do that when you upload again 12308:46
dokowhat about new translations which come from the new 123 OOo?08:46
carlosbut Rosetta will not have the 123 .pot file yet08:46
carlosonly 12108:46
carlosdoko well, that's a good question, the system will upload them to Rosetta08:47
dokocarlos: and rosetta cannot generate these during the build?08:47
pittidoko: msgmerge will ensure that new translations from upstream aren't lost08:48
carlosdoko, only if the .pot file is uploaded first into Rosetta08:48
carlospitti, well, it's not so simple08:48
pittibut this scenario is a corner case anyway08:48
carlospitti, we are talking about two .po files changed in different places08:48
pittiusually we will have more than just one upload of a given upstream version08:48
pittiso if that is difficult, we just make it a policy: we don't update translations from rosetta the first time we upload ooo.o08:49
pittithat's not a big restriction AFAICS08:49
carlospitti, doko: Ok, lets see it this way...08:49
dokopitti: define "first time", is it per version?08:49
pittidoko: yes08:49
pittiand it is even less a restriction, because:08:49
carlosthe sourcepackage that will generate the binaries will not generate any .po/.pot files08:49
pitti1) doko uploads ooo_n+108:50
pitti2) rosetta merges08:50
dokopitti: and when a new language is added in an -2 upload?08:50
pitti3) doko uploads ooo-langpacks_n+108:50
carlospitti, I like that08:50
pittiwe have split packages anyway, right?08:50
dokoyes08:50
carlosdoko, is it doable?08:50
pittiso the split package allows us to put rosetta "in between" the new upstream version and the new langpack deb generation08:51
dokook, sounds doable, but a hell of syncing those two08:51
pittidoko: well, the sync task remains anyway, right?08:52
dokoyes08:52
carlosdoko, that way you don't need to take care about merging anythin08:52
carlosdoko, and Rosetta will get always the updates from upstream08:52
carloswithout needing to care about conflicts08:52
=== pitti would suggest to switch to abiword and use gettext, but is afraid to be beaten up horribly
carlospitti, abiword does not uses gettext...08:53
carlospitti, they just have the .po generation process integrated into their source packages08:53
pittidudes, that was a mere joke08:53
pitticarlos: hm, is there anything in gettext which makes it unusable for office suites?08:54
pittiwell, nevermind, back to topic08:54
pittiso we settled the ooo rosetta update?08:54
carlospitti, portability was an issue. New abiword versions will use it directly08:54
carlospitti, I think so, I will write down all this so you can read it later and improve it until all people is happy08:55
carlosdoko, ?08:55
=== comadreja [~comadreja@comadreja.active.supporter.pdpc] has joined #ubuntu-meeting
dokocarlos: ?08:56
dokook, about the spec. yes, that sounds good.08:56
carlosdoko, do you agree? do you have any doubt/question?08:56
carlosI know you don't have yet all information, but I will try to give you it with the spec08:57
dokoI currently cannot see any problems.08:57
carlosok08:57
dokoI won't export anything for en-us and de08:57
dokothese are the message-id's, and both languages are normally handled well upstream08:58
carlosdoko, hmm, that would mean to filter them out on .po export time08:58
carlosI will note that on pending things08:58
carlosto the spec so we look for a way to do it08:58
dokowe can add it to the todo list, if the other things work08:59
carlosdoko, pitti when would you have a new meeting with the spec ready so we can comment it?08:59
carlosI think I would have it ready for tomorrow08:59
carlosWill send you it by email08:59
pittiwould be fine for me09:00
carlosand after you read it, we would have another meeting (tomorrow or on Friday)09:00
dokoI'm away until Friday afternoon, no email in this time09:00
carlosI will try to get some input from Mark also09:00
pittilet's comment with email replies09:00
carlosok09:00
carlosthen09:00
pittithe next meeting should happen if we actually tried out the po extraction in packages09:00
pittis/if/after/09:01
dokoso, is the next meeting on Monday too late09:01
doko?09:01
carloswill open a thread and if we see it needed we try a meeting on Friday afternoon or next week09:01
carlosdoko, I suppose it's not a big problem as we are not in the same place anyway09:01
dokocarlos: I can read the spec on Friday, but won't have much done until then09:01
carlosso it's a "virtual" meeting09:01
carlosdoko, don't worry, that would be enough09:01
pittiok, great09:01
carlosI will be travelling on Monday09:01
carlosnot sure if I will have network connection09:02
carlosso we are not in a hurry09:02
carlosdoko, pitti what's our timeline for breezy?09:02
carlosso we have this sorted out on time?09:02
pitticarlos: I hope you won't get stuck at an airport for 4 hours again :-)09:02
pitticarlos: feature freeze is next wednesday09:02
carlospitti, not 4 hours but about 10 hours or so09:02
carlospitti, London link is slow :-(09:02
pitticarlos: but breezy goals can be fixed even after that09:03
carlosok, I will try to accelerate all next week09:03
carlosso we get languagepacks 100% functional09:03
pitticarlos: what about fixing the export in general?09:03
dokocarlos: hmm, let's see, what we can work out until Tuesday09:03
carlospitti, btw breezy imports are running again09:03
pittithe hoary tarball was unusable09:03
carlospitti, that's what I'm talking about09:03
pittiah, cool09:03
carloscool09:04
carlosdoko, pitti anything else?09:04
pitticarlos: was that "space" thingy a bug in rosetta, or a "bug" in a translator? :-)09:04
carlospitti, need to debug, It does not look like a bug in Rosetta, but I need to check it09:04
pittiok, great09:05
carlosdoko, pitti ok, so if you don't have any other thing....09:05
carlosdoko, pitti thank you very much for the meeting09:05

Seveasi've found a great game i want to package ogra :)12:02
bddebianheh12:02
ograhehe12:02
\shdholbach: let's rock :)12:02
dholbachour beloved breezy-changes hero stephan \sh hermann wants us to think about the concept of MOTU Taskforces12:02
=== Riddell Jonathan Riddell
dholbach\sh: do you want to tell us about about the problems that make this necessary12:03
\shsure..but it's not a problem...:)12:03
siretartSeveas: talk to me in #ubuntu-motu later about your game package12:03
\shok...as u all know, we as team have several tasks to do..like those funny transitions, reviews, training of new motus etc.12:04
=== sistpoty2 [~nobody@DSL01.212.114.228.184.NEFkom.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting
\shbut in times like nowadays, we can't accomplish all tasks with the same team strength, so I was thinking about some type of "load balancing"12:04
=== azeem [~mbanck@proxy-out.lrz-muenchen.de] has joined #ubuntu-meeting
\shsome members are working on the transitions, some on the reviews, and some others are doing NewMotuTrainings...something like that12:05
ograa MOTULoadBalance team :)12:05
siretartogra: well, MOTU is supposed to do some kind of load balancing anyway ;)12:05
Seveasogra, that would be bureaucracy and work counterproductive12:05
ogra(kidding)12:05
ograhey regard the :)12:06
ogra;)12:06
\shall work has always priority 1 as u know ;) and this is a real challenge sometimes12:06
dholbachwhat opinions do you all have on this?12:06
siretart\sh: what problem do you want to solve with the creation of teams?12:06
ogra\sh, in my eyes the stability of the distro has prio 1 for me... i.e. merges and transitions > reviews12:07
ajmitchdo you think that having people just working on things isn't enough?12:07
\shsiretart: that all work is done in a good timeframe..12:07
ajmitchor do you feel that some parts (reviews, etc) get less love?12:07
\shI don't want to have packages waiting for reviews months and months, but if there are some other real work to be done, we need some more hands sometimes12:07
dholbachi have one objection: people will always do things they like best - whatever those things are - some are even interested in doing a bit of everything12:08
ograajmitch, the latter... but i dont cry a tear about it, we can approve them later still12:08
siretartwell, I don't think the creation of teams itself will give us more manpower..12:08
\shdholbach: yes right...12:08
\shsiretart: it's not a team ... 12:08
\shin this case...12:08
