judaxare there reppositories to pull the kubuntu preview down with apt?12:06
Madpilotjudax: best ask on either #kubuntu or #ubuntu if you want the Breezy preview for Kubuntu12:07
judaxok, was going to work on preview notes and didn't want to do the cd thing12:08
Madpilotjudax: ah... did you want the Breezy documentation, or the actual OS?12:08
judaxMadpilot: I wanted the actual os, I know the base is the ubuntu breezy repos, but am not figuring out how to grab kubuntu breezy addtions, like the new apt front-end, tec12:11
judaxs/tec/etc12:11
judaxMadpilot: I will ask over in kubuntu, just thought maybe jjesse or froud might have done it12:12

BurgundaviaMadpilot, I am waiting for the art work freeze or near then02:29
MadpilotBurgundavia: you talking about Water7's question above?02:30
BurgundaviaMadpilot, yes02:31
MadpilotOK02:31
Burgundaviaand text is not yet done and might not be translatable02:31
Madpilotbecause it's not in XML?02:32
Burgundaviajeffsch, where is the doc now?02:32
BurgundaviaMadpilot, yes02:32
jeffschBurgundavia: ?02:33
jeffschMadpilot: xhtml is xml02:34
jeffschif the pot file can be made from any old xml, then it should work02:34
Burgundaviajeffsch, the quicktour. Is the built version still here --> http://doc.ubuntu.com/gnome/quicktour/quicktour.html02:35
jeffschas mdke :). That's where the makefile should be putting it now02:36
jeffschMadpilot: my understanding is that the pot file consists of nothing more than strings that need to be translated02:38
jeffschthe translators create a po file from the pot file, and fill in the blanks with their particular language02:38
jeffschpot = Portable Object Template02:38
jeffschpo = Portable Object02:38
Madpilotcool02:38
jeffschthis is pure speculation on my part, but i suspect that when a the po file is complete, the tools do a search and replace02:41
jeffschthey search for the original string, replace it with the translation, and output it all to a new file02:41
jeffschkeeping all the stuff between '<' and '>' intact02:42
Madpilotmakes sense - tag-detection isn't a difficult trick usually. still pretty cool02:44

jbaileyjsgotangco: Heya.03:39
jbaileyI didn't manage to catch pitti today, but I need to get an updated ubuntu-docs uploaded.03:40
jsgotangcohey03:40
jbaileyMight wind up doing it tomorrow morning, though, I'm quite tied.03:40
jbailey+r03:40
jsgotangconp03:40
jsgotangcoyou're getting it from branch right03:40
jbaileyYup03:40
jbaileyI'm assuming that anythiung that's approved to be in will either get put in the branch by you guys, or I'll get poked to sync (either is fine)03:41
jbaileyIIRC, I need to unify the various FAQs into one, and do the scrollkeeper bits to do the XML.03:41
jsgotangcothey're just docs..probably the the last package or to be included in our package is the release notes03:42
jbaileyWas the quicktour redone in docbook?03:42
jsgotangcono03:42
jsgotangcoits just html03:42

jbailey?03:42
=== jbailey holds
jsgotangcounify the faq?03:42
jsgotangcomake it one massive docbook?03:42
jbaileyIn the meeting or just before it, someone said that all the faqs were the same for each arch03:42
jbaileySo it should be one faq, not faqi386, faqppc, faqamd6403:42
jsgotangcooh i thought the doc itself03:43
jbaileyNo, nothing insane like that.03:43
jbaileyJust that instead of shipping 3, I only need to ship one of them since it's generic.03:43
ajmitchsounds reasonable, why would there be different faqs per arch?03:44
jsgotangcobecause the authors did so03:44
jbaileyajmitch: bootloader stuff or dualboot config, etc?03:44
jsgotangcoall 3 arches had different authors03:44
jbaileyajmitch: I can think of a number of things that would go per-arch.03:44
jsgotangcoi always thought it was merged03:44
ajmitchjbailey: right03:45
jsgotangcoerrmm why am i assigned a malone bug about docs03:50
jsgotangcoheh03:50
ajmitchjsgotangco: because you're docmaster?03:52
jbaileyDocteam needs a cool acronym like MOTU03:52
jbaileyPerhaps we can be the homeys.03:52

ajmitchjbailey: only scientists, and they're a bit on the edge04:11
ajmitchwe use the same scale, of course04:11
jbaileyRight.  That's like claiming free software hackers as a civilisation.04:11

Madpilotdoes FF or Epiph do full-screen like Opera does? You can actually do pretty cool presentations that way...08:31

pittiHi05:36
jbaileyHeya05:37
jsgotangcosalut pitti05:37
jbailey(For thsoe follwoing along, pitti and I are just talking about updating translations for the docbook files automatically like langpacks and what our options for breezy are)05:37
jbaileyjsgotangco: T'es franco? =)05:37
pittiok, can someone please shortly describe the current translation process?05:37
jsgotangcobasically we have our docbook xml, we make a po file and give it to rosetta05:38
jsgotangcoright now translators are doing it in rosetta05:38
pittiso you have to manually import the PO into Rosetta?05:38
pittior, rather, you generate a POT file automatically05:39
pittiand import existing PO files into Rosetta?05:39
jsgotangcoroughly yes, its our first time to do it with rosetta05:40
pittiok, so we should automate this process first05:41
pittiare the documentation files packaged somewhere?05:41
pittiif they are, we can do the Rosetta import automatically05:41
pittior are the files maintained separately?05:41
jsgotangconone, we only have docbook source what jbailey did was package it himself05:41
jsgotangcohe made a branch of the current svn to make it package friendly in the future05:42
jbaileypitti: I will also be doing weekly updates through the breezy+1 cycle05:42
jbaileypitti: So there's a reasonable possibility of doing the usual langpack slurping.05:42
pittihm, so as long as there is no ubuntu-docs source package of some kind, automating something is difficult05:42
jsgotangcoyes it should be seeded for every milestone05:43
pittiAFAICS, the easiest option at the moment would be to write a script that slurps translations from Rosetta and generates translated db-xml files05:44
jbaileypitti: Is a source package.05:44
pittithis script can then be integrated into the source package05:44
jbaileypitti: That's what I'm saying will be uploaded weekly in the new release.05:44
pittiah, cool05:44
jbaileyAnd can be done now for my spot uploads.05:44
pittiso a mere debian/rules rosetta-update would update everything05:45
pittithe problem is, translated documentation does not fit well into the current langpack concept05:45
pittiwill all translations be shipped in one package, or is there something like ubuntu-doc-de and so on?05:45
jsgotangcohrmm05:46
jsgotangcono05:46
jsgotangcoit used to be all ubuntu-doc05:46
jsgotangcoeverything is in there05:46
jsgotangcoideally though to save space, it makes sense to add them with the langpacks i guess05:46
jbaileypitti: Having them in the langpacks also makes sense to for post-breezy updating.05:47
jsgotangcohowever, those docs point to global entities in the source05:47
jbaileyjsgotangco: Even the translations?05:47
jsgotangcoindeed05:47
jbaileyI thought they just got their own subdirectories and were noticed if they were available?05:48
jsgotangcothat's why they are all in one folder05:48
jbaileyFeh05:48
jsgotangcothat method would end up all the translations having their own copy of the entities05:48
jsgotangcoinstead of just one05:48
pittiwell, either way, the package can certainly be updated in langpack-o-matic in the end05:48
pittibut for now, having the script in the source package is the best solution IMHO05:49
pittilater we can call the script from langpack-o-matic, so it's not wasted05:49
pittipackage-specific logic should be kept in the particular package anyway05:49
pittijsgotangco: what about a ubuntu-doc-common package with all the entities and pictures, and so on?05:50
jbaileypitti: I can do that.  So far the docs are arch:all05:50
jbaileySo there wasn't much point.05:50
pittiwell, as long as the size of one translation is small compared to the size of images, having just one package probably makes sense anyway05:51
jsgotangcopitti: that is ideal since we'll just have all the docs from langpacks refer to a single location05:51
jsgotangcowe'll just have to fix the svn to make it friendly to that05:51
pittiand the packge split is pretty orthogonal to the automatic translation anyway05:51

CWiesenhi there, got a question;07:07
jsgotangcoindonesian! wow07:07
CWiesencan someone tell me about the state of the Kubuntu docs? I offered to help with the german translation some time ago and was told that it would be a good time to start when it's in rosetta. Is it? Didn't see anything yet.07:07
jsgotangcowe'll have bahasa...07:07
mdkeCWiesen, they are not ready yet unfortunately07:07
mdkegtg07:07
jsgotangcoCWiesen: we didn't include kubuntu they are incomplete07:07
jsgotangcounfortunately, there was only 1 guy doing it all at the end...07:08
CWiesenah. so they are beeing worked on in svn then?07:08
jsgotangcoyes07:08
CWiesenSean Wheller, I know. Could someone remind me of his irc nick? :-/07:08

CWiesenwell, sometimes reallife just stops you from doing some things I guess.07:10
jsgotangcohe sometimes responds to the list07:11
