CC-BY-SA and stick them up somewhere for the rest of the community to use? [08:52] guess I should [08:53] I've got webspace if you need it - too back Ubuntu's FTP support bites so much... [08:54] have we sorted out that is was not Ace of Space? [08:55] I'm pretty sure it's not, but I'll file a help ticket for more info on assigning FTP accounts... [08:55] you could always upload it to the U wiki as an attachement [08:55] Burgundavia, I would say you would be safe with the trunk, it can be copied to the branch when you are ready to release it [08:55] just let jbailey know what the go is [08:56] rob^, ok [08:57] I have to get ready for night shift :( catch you all later === robitaille points at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Presentations :) === robitaille now hates evolution...a 500+ mb application on a 256mb laptop doesn't work out very well [09:16] thunderbird is even stupider.

Breezy branch or trunk? [10:22] i would agree with rob [10:22] ok [10:22] it's up to you as long as you know jbailey know if you want the doc to go into breezy [10:22] ok [10:22] we have a quite large problem with the faqguide pot :/ [10:23] what sort of issues? [10:23] mdke: what problem [10:24] i'm trying to track it down [10:24] i'm not sure if there is a problem with the pot or with rosetta === Burgundavia needs to crash, night [10:26] i can't see anything wrong with the pot [10:26] so maybe it is rosetta [10:26] what is the complaint? [10:26] i have to show it to you [10:27] but launchpad is offline right now [10:27] Hmm ok [10:27] "NEVER come up with a product and then try to find a market. Ever." [10:27] Instead of : [10:27] Sell your market what they want to buy. [10:30] whew, why was the breezy branch made on the whole repos [10:30] is edubuntu going as a package [10:31] I know kubuntu is a package by is not introduced to the distro in the same way as ubuntu-docs [10:31] seems overkill to svn copy * of trunk, no? [10:32] eh? [10:32] wagga wagga why have edu and kub in ubu breezy branch, just makes to many leaves for the branch [10:33] b btr 2 svn cp what ubu needs to breezy branch, no? [10:33] ok i think i've understood you [10:33] but talking in full sentences would really help [10:34] yes, jbailey copied the whole of trunk [10:34] i suppose he will cut out what he doesn't need eventually [10:34] yah, but when :-) [10:34] i don't know [10:34] why? [10:34] better do do it at start, you see even tough you will prune and clean, you dont reallydelete [10:35] you just remove from head :-) [10:35] making log and scroll back big [10:35] not a problem, just not optimal on server usage or disk space :-) [10:36] also I see changes in branches/breezy we will want those in trunk sometime [10:36] is somebody following the branch and trunk and making sure they can merge branches back to trunk later [10:37] would be shame to have limux in trunk breezy + 1 :-) === thoreauput1c [n=prospero@wolax9-110.dialup.optusnet.com.au] has joined #ubuntu-doc === thoreauput1c [n=prospero@wolax9-110.dialup.optusnet.com.au] has left #ubuntu-doc ["Leaving"] [10:38] yes [10:38] of course that will be done [10:39] ok, just making sure [10:39] :-) [10:40] not sure if people r aware of issues like this, so better to say something than shutup and then have the problem to manage later ;-) [10:41] rebooting [10:47] gonna try recreating the pot with the gnome-doc-utils from breezy [10:47] perhaps this issue is caused by the version in hoary [10:47] Uhm you should be using KDESDK [10:48] interesting use of the phrase "you should be" [10:48] xml2pot from kde sdk is what we used last time [10:48] we had problems with gdoc utils [10:48] yeah I know [10:49] this time we went with gnome-doc-utils [10:49] oh well, up to you, whatever works [10:49] brb [10:49] bitch the pdf transform for FAQ is not able to do its thang due to duplicate id values [10:50] but doc is valid, IOW there are no dupes.

[04:46] yes, sean in his last email suggested there was [04:46] but he didn't say how [04:47] i've asked in my last email [04:47] grrr it seems he is doing it on purpose to show how weak we are in some areas [04:47] yes [04:48] what a git [04:48] i don't mind, but what annoys me is that he does things without saying what he is doing [04:48] that is unprofessional [04:48] especially where it involves doing the opposite of what was discussed [04:50] i'd like to kick him off the list but that is not the proper way [04:50] hmm [04:51] if he becomes more disruptive, removing svn access would be a possibility I suppose, if discussed in a team meeting and/or CC [04:51] sure [04:52] me an jbailey are discussing about brainstorming after release for UBZ [04:52] we'll sort this out [04:52] good [04:53] we need a stable working methodology otherwise each release cycle will be mayhem [04:53] yup [04:54] sorry mdke i can't help much on this regard, pots are still a mystery to me [04:54] np [04:55] hmm [04:56] is dapper drake really the name?

[05:17] yes [05:17] made from the faqguide from branches/breezy [05:17] nice [05:17] it will probably work [05:18] it will work but we will get one single file out of the translations (e.g. faqguide.tl.xml) [05:18] yuck that will take forever to load in yelp [05:18] but then if it works... [05:19] i'm not sure [05:21] mmm they seem to be preparing BOFs now for ubz === jordi [n=jordi@115.Red-213-96-69.pooles.rima-tde.net] has joined #ubuntu-doc [05:26] hey jordi [05:27] hi guys [05:27] hiya [05:27] my head is spinning a bit right now [05:28] hehe [05:28] don't worry. You're on track :) [05:28] mdke: do you have a g-d-u makefile setup now? [05:28] nope [05:28] not much chance that we can do that [05:28] maybe for breezy+1 [05:29] with that in place (as directed in the gnome wiki), this is a piece of cake provided your files are using xinclude correcty. [05:29] really? [05:29] it'd only be a change to the build system, with quite some benefits i guess [05:29] i don't have the time to investigate that now... [05:29] I can help. [05:29] also it would be a very drastic change at late notice [05:30] re: that, I don't know the freeze policy so I don't have an opinion. [05:30] i think we should stick to doing the pot manually for now [05:32] ok. [05:32] anyhow we have xincludes working properly, so the next question is, should we use -e to resolve entities [05:32] sean says no [05:32] danilo says yes [05:32] I erally recommend moving to the standard make setup, but it's too late, it's too late. [05:32] gnome uses -e [05:32] danilo wrote the tool, in part. [05:33] so you decide :P [05:33] heh [05:33] ho ho [05:33] if ! test -d bg/; then mkdir bg/; fi [05:33] if test -f "C/release-notes.xml"; then d="../"; else d=".././"; fi; \ [05:33] if ! test -f bg/bg.po; then \ [05:33] (cd bg/ && \ [05:33] `which xml2po` -e ${d}C/release-notes.xml ${d}C/release-notes.xml ${d}C/rni18n.xml ${d}C/rndocs.xml ${d}C/rninstallation.xml ${d}C/rnusers.xml ${d}C/rnadmins.xml ${d}C/rndevelopers.xml > bg.po); \ [05:33] jordi, is it correct to say that if there are a number of entities in the pot file which have the same string, they will only get translated once in rosetta?

[05:35] all of those calls use -e [05:35] yeah [05:36] jordi, my question? [05:36] jordi, is it correct to say that if there are a number of entities in the pot file which have the same string, they will only get translated once in rosetta? [05:36] mdke: correct [05:36] they should and can only appear once in the pot file: check that if you want [05:36] what about if it appears in a different package? [05:37] so if two documents use the same entity [05:37] in a pot or po file, if you get a duplicate msgid gettext errors out and you're in trouble. [05:38] mdke: documents as in different xml files for the same doc, or two documents different as the "ubuntufaq" and "wildflowersintexas"? :) [05:38] the latter [05:38] if the latter, Rosetta will suggest that the string was translated in some other place, but currently I don't think it'll automatically apply it [05:38] that is fine [05:38] ok i think we should go with -e then [05:39] that will happen when they work on the translation memory features, they have the base in rosetta, but no UI to use it yet. [05:39] good [05:42] ok i'll wait for sean to merge his xinclude improvements, then make the pot and upload it, and cross fingers [05:42] mdke: good luck. You know where I am. [05:43] And remember: switching to the "cool" build-sys is easy.
