jbaileyAh!  Thanks. =)04:56
jbaileyI woke up this morning thinking about that and wondered why I hadn't done it. 04:56
jbaileyEspecially when I had ot redo the 30 meg upload. =)04:56
jsgotangcoupload what??04:56
jbaileyubuntu-artwork04:57
jbaileyMy upload at 2am didn't work. =)04:57
jsgotangcohow does the packaging work? does it have a script that automatically registers the doc to yelp?04:58
jbaileydh_scrollkeeper takes care of that for me.05:01
jbaileyI just have to make sure it knows about the OMF.05:01
jbaileyThe OMF contains the URI to the Document.05:02

pittiHi01:49
spayneyo pitti01:49
pittiI'd like to change the current default CD player from totem to sound-juicer01:49
pittithat is, the app that automatically starts when I insert a CD01:50
spaynewhy are you ask in here?01:50
pittibut since we are in all kinds of freezes, do we need to change any docs about this?01:50
pittispayne: if some documentation has a screenshot of gnome-cd or totem, and s-j pops up instead, that would be confusing01:50
spaynedon't ask me, i'm in the process of joining the wiki team01:50
spayne:)01:50
pittijbailey: any idea about that?01:51
jbaileypitti: I think that no screenshots have been done.  We're only providing three docs:01:51
jbailey1) about Ubuntu01:51
jbailey2) faqguide01:51
jbailey3) ummm01:51
jbaileyquicktour01:51
jbaileyThe quicktour doesn't have pictures.01:52
jbaileyThe other two can be seen by hopping into help and looking at the two options below the line.01:52
pittiok, that means I could change it without breaking too much?01:52
jbaileyI suspect so.01:53
Kinnisondoes SJ play by doing DAE ?01:53
Kinnisonsome machines can't do DAE in realtime01:53
=== macgyver2 [n=eric@unaffiliated/macgyver2] has joined #ubuntu-doc
pittiKinnison: I guess so, yes01:54
pittiKinnison: totem does, too01:54
Kinnisonoh right, if totem does too, then it's not a regression to rely on DAE01:54
=== Kinnison was just concerned about it
KinnisonSJ is a nicer CD UI anyway01:55
pittiKinnison: e. g. my iBook can't play CD audio directly, they apparently forgot the cable01:55
pittiok, I didn't find anything related to this in the docs01:55
pittiso I'll change it now01:55
Kinnisonpitti: coo, quality apple manufacturing01:55

spaynejbailey: ping02:11
jbaileyspayne: pong02:11
jjessemorning folks :)02:11
spaynejbailey: will you take a glance at my first Wiki document for the Wiki Team02:11
spaynejbailey: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Building_iFolder and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/iFolder02:12
Kamping_Kaiserhi jjesse02:12
jbaileyspayne: Only if you tell me what it is. ;)02:12
jjessehelp Kamping_Kaiser 02:12
Kamping_Kaiser:)02:12
jbaileyspayne: What's this for? =)02:13
jjessedoh can't type that was supposed to be hello Kamping_Kaiser 02:13
spaynejbailey: iFolder02:13
spaynejbailey: read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/iFolder first02:13
Kamping_Kaiseri asumed so jjesse ;)02:13
jbaileyspayne: Right, but what do you want me to look for.02:13
jbaileyI've read them both now =)02:13
spaynejbailey: are they alright? are they too complicated?02:14
jjessespayne: they look good to me :)02:14
spaynejbailey: all my docs have been for tech users so i am trying hard02:14
jbaileyspayne: The document requires alot of faith on the part of the user.02:15
spaynei thought i'd move all my docs for ubuntu from other sources (blog, hula wiki, ifolder wiki, ubuntu forums) onto the Wiki02:15
spaynejbailey: sigh. i know02:15
jbaileyspayne: Wouldn't it be easier to package it and get it into universe? =)02:15
spaynejbailey: Mez is making packages02:15
spaynejbailey: I can't even package a KWin theme, never mind iFolder!02:15
spaynejbailey: you can (in theory) alien RPMs but it puts weird stuff in /opt and has been known to totally screw up nautilus02:16
jbaileyDude, if you can work CVS, packaging is the easy part. =)02:16
jbaileyRight.  Alien Considered Harmful02:16
ajmitchBuilding_iFolder page suggests some dodgy stuff02:16
ajmitchlike --prefix=/usr02:16
spayneajmitch: tell me and will change02:16
jbaileyspayne: The biggest problem with this page is that it's an act of faith.  If they don't follow the instructiosn to the letter, it will break and they will have no idea why.02:17
=== ajmitch would never suggest that for stuff built from source :)
spayneajmitch: where would you put it? in /usr/local, it doesn't pick everything up02:17
jbaileyAnd also because it's CVS they're working against, they could face random upstream breakage with no explanation.02:17
ajmitchspayne: yes, in /usr/local, passing other flags to get it to pick things up02:17
ajmitchspayne: I steer well clear of building from source myself02:17
jbaileyspayne: If it's automake based, packaging should take an experienced person about 2 hours.  If you have a day to heave at it, you could probably get it in. =)02:18
spaynejbailey: i have been using ifolder for around 2 months and they have been any breakages02:18
ajmitchwell I build, but I just install from packages :)02:18
jbaileyspayne: Past performance is no guarnatee of future results. =)02:18
spaynejbailey: i can't really start packaging as Mez has told Novell he is doing it02:18
spayneplus, they can't go into the repos02:18
ajmitchlicense issues02:18
spayneas iFolder depends on a closed-source DB called Flaim02:18
jbaileyIs thih non-free?02:18
spayneiFolder itself is free02:19
jbaileyLike can't even go into multiverse?02:19
spayneand by January, the whole thing will be free02:19
spayneno02:19
spayneit can only be redistrubted by Novell02:19
jbaileySuck.02:19
spaynejbailey: sigh - i know. Mez is goign to make packages which will go into a Novell-supplied APT server02:19
jbaileyThe --prefix=/usr is a fairly serious problem.02:20
spaynejbailey: i can change that :)02:20
jbaileyThat it's a problem, or the prefix? ;002:20
spayneiirc, no prefix puts it into /usr/local?02:20
