ddaajamesh: I'm looking into integrating python with gedit. I have setup a trivial "python hello world" plugin already and looked at pyphany for inspiration, but I was quite scared by all the GNU standards goo and glib-gtk-gnome voodoo that involved.02:47
ddaajamesh: do you know some synthetic online resources about making a gnu standards compliant package (autoconf-automake-gettext-libtool-pkgtool-whatever), using the pygtk binding generation magic, and that sort of things02:49
ddaaalso, using the gnome terminal widget to hack toghether a python console instead of the hack used by pyphany02:50
ddaa(though I could cannibalise that one easily)02:50
ddaaalso I'm unclear about how I should handle the "provide python support for gedit" case. Should I make a python loader plugin that supplement the plugin dialog of gedit, or should I look for a way to make it seamless?02:51
sivanghey ddaa 03:18
sivangddaa: some interesting stuff you do there :) you want to turn gedit to a Python IDE ?03:18
ddaaJust dicking around.03:19
sivangddaa: what ado you want to do python plugin for gedit?03:19
ddaaI have some ideas about where I would like to go. Mostly, I got there from gobby.03:20
ddaaI was interested in collaborative text editing for a little while, and gobby is most promising project I have found so far. But it's C++, so I will not contribute to it directly for fun.03:20
sivangI see. does it allow concurrent modifications?03:21
ddaasabfl suggested integrating collaborative editing into gedit, so I'm thinking about making python binding for gedit, binding for gobby, then glue that toghether.03:22
=== sivang checks the webpage. It does!
ddaasivang: I talk about it a bit in my blog03:22
sivangGobby looks pretty nice, yeah03:22
sivangddaa: can I please have the link?03:22
ddaahttp://ddaa.net/blog03:22
sivangddaa: thx03:22
sivangddaa: was trying to ping jamesh about lpint-bonobo, is he supposed to come online today?03:23
ddaaIt's sunday. Sometimes people are around sometimes not. They are really required to be there only on weekdays.03:24
sivangddaa: k, was just asking no demands posted :)03:25
sivangddaa: libre software link is broken, btw03:25
ddaaha?03:25
ddaabah, only one I did not test03:25
sivangddaa: in the *very* intersting essay you have there on the first palge :)03:25
sivangddaa: s/palge/page/03:26
=== sivang reads
ddaafixed link, thanks03:27
bob2nifty03:28
sivangddaa: no prob, nice story. I wish more companies would have worked that way :)03:29
ddaaThat's quite 21st century thing, and it's quite difficult and relies on a limited pool of intelligent and higly motivated individuals. I'm not sure how far it can scale.03:30
sivangddaa: probably true. I can see lost of the "corporate" way of doing things compensates for lack of competence or skills :-/03:30
sivangs/lost/lots/03:31
ddaaYeah, Sturgeon's law.03:31
ddaa99% of everything is grunge.03:31
ddaa99% of programmers are not good programmers.03:31
ddaaand 99% of execs are probably completely unable to work in such a setting.03:32
sivangddaa: anyway, there is  alot more then just doing stuff efficiently and with quality in the distributed development school,03:46
sivangddaa: it becomes plain fun :)03:47
ddaasomehow things seem to get less fun when you are paid for doing them, but as job goes that's a a good company.03:48
ddaaeven though some people may disagree, for understandable reasons03:49
sivangofcourse. I think that it taking efforts in supporting what I think its a revolution, even if the work is less fun now and then, the general goal is till worth while and can give motivation.03:50
sivangs/its/is/03:50
sivang(e.g., supporting open source, ppromoting it, making it accessible to everyone)03:50
ddaaI'd like to discuss that more, but I have some IRL appointments03:53
ddaathings like walking around in a park with family03:53
sivangddaa: sure, thanks for chatting03:53
