jjessegood morning02:12

mdkehey jbailey02:13
mdkejbailey, awesome work yesterday. Today brings a couple of bugs in ubuntu-docs02:13
jbaileymdke: I know about the entity errors.  Any others?02:13
jbaileyI also still couldn't get pt to work right although pt_BR does.02:14
mdkejbailey, the other one I filed is the erroneous name for the faqguide02:14
jbaileyErr.02:14
jbaileyDid I get it wrong, or are you proposing a string change? =)02:14
mdkeno, no02:15
mdkejbailey, the omf file02:15
jbaileyRight.02:15
mdkejbailey, we didn't like the word "unofficial"02:15
jbaileyBut that's still a string.02:15
mdkeah02:15
mdkenot allowed?02:15
jbaileyAlmost certainly.02:15
mdkei changed it and committed, so better undo it if that is a problem02:15
mdkethe "unofficial" thing was a hangup from the hoary version02:16
jbailey'k02:16
jbaileyAh, yeah.02:16
mdkeit's a problem? you can't upload that?02:16
jbaileyRight.  The deadline for DocumentationStringFreeze was Sept 8.02:17
jbaileyI'd get larted for doing it now.02:17
mdkejbailey, although taking a flexible interpretation of that freeze, it was to enable translations to be done. The omf files are not getting translated02:17
jbaileyAlthough many of them already are.02:18
mdkereally?02:18
jbaileyYeah.02:18
mdkethat must be from hoary too i guess02:18
jbaileyYeah.02:18
mdkeok your call on that02:18
jbaileyAnd if I had been clever I could've done the ones last night.02:18
jbaileyI think the string also appears in the .xml file02:18
jbaileySo I should be able to pick up the translation from there.02:19
mdkei doubt it02:19
jbaileyNot the 'Unofficial' one.02:19
jbaileyBut the 'About Ubuntu' does.02:19
mdkeoh yeah sure02:19
mdkei still don't think the string freeze applies to those omf files02:19
mdkebut i'll leave it with you02:20
mdkeit's not a major issue, the entity thing is major02:20
jbaileyRight.02:20
jbaileyThe Entity thing is a bug.02:20
jbaileyI can fix that now. =)02:20
mdkewhat is up with that?02:20
mdkeglobal.ent is in the wrong place?02:20
jbaileyRight.02:20
jbaileyIt's looking for things in 02:20
jbailey"../../common"02:20
mdkeyeah02:21
mdkeok, the other bug is that the legal stuff doesn't show up in the faqguide02:21
jbaileyI have to look up if there's a search base or something I can use.02:21
jbaileyLikfe the FDL and such?02:21
mdkeyah02:21
jbaileySymptom of problem #102:21
jbailey=)02:21
mdkeit's in this bit:02:21
mdke<xi:include href="../../../common/C/ccbysa.xml" xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude"/>02:21
mdke<xi:include href="../../../common/C/fdl.xml" xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude"/>02:21
mdke<!-- &cc-by-sa;02:21
mdke&fdl; -->02:22
jbaileyYour best bet if you want that string changed is to put an item in for the TB next Tuesday02:22
mdkesame bug really02:22
mdkethe "unofficial" string?02:22
jbaileyGet them to rule on what's covered by StringFreeze and what's not.02:22
jbaileyRight.02:22
mdkeok02:22
mdkewill do02:22
mdkehow about the legal bug, is that fixable?02:22
segfaulti installed the new ubuntu-docs today02:26
segfaultit showed pt_BR ok, however there was no ubuntu image, when i clicked in "About Ubuntu"02:27
segfaultbesides, we should tell people to add their translations of "About Ubuntu" in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopTranslations02:28
mdkejbailey, i can confirm that ^^02:28
mdkemissing image bug02:28
jbaileyRight.02:28
jbaileyI'll see if I can fix that.02:28
segfaultsince it looks like they'll freeze that today02:28
jbaileysegfault: Too late for more translations.  Freeze was yesterday02:29
segfaulthumm, Mirv told me that was still in time02:29
mdkeyeah you can do them02:29
mdkesegfault, it applies to translations of .desktop files only02:29
mdkenot docs02:29
segfaultis that possible to have a translated image of Ubuntu in pt_BR?02:30
jbaileyProbably not at this point, sorry.02:30
mdkeno, best to use the original image02:30
jbaileyWe have no way of really doing translated images.02:30
segfaultmdke: sure, but since people translated the about-ubuntu doc, i guess they would like to se the desktop entry translated too02:30
mdkesegfault, yes, that is up to them, I have no way to communicate this further02:31
segfaultnp02:31
jbaileyTime for usual morning prep.  bbiab02:34

jbaileyjsgotangco: Dude, it's software development.05:39
jbaileySomething bad is *always* happening. =)05:39
jsgotangcobecause im getting the smackdown from ogra and i have no idea what happened05:39
jbaileyEh? Where from?05:40
jsgotangcoogra: jsgotangco, i'm pretty annoyed that i have to redo the edubuntu-artwork package completely and i didnt have time planned for that... there were heavy changes to this doc that split it up into several other documents ... 05:40
jbaileyLemme ask him and find out what's up...05:41

jsgotangcohi jjesse06:03
jjessehello jsgotangco 06:03
jbaileyAnyone here care about a change I'm proposing for the files?  Right now we look for images and such in "../..", etc..06:30
jbaileyI'm thinking that I will replace that with a ROOTPATH entity06:31
jbaileyThat way it can be changed between local generation and package generation.06:31
jsgotangcoit makes things easier huh06:32
jbaileyI think it will.06:32
jbaileyOr it could be the whole path is better.06:32
jbaileyso &imagepath;06:33
jsgotangcodoes it still require locales to have their own copies?06:33
jbaileyOr something like that.06:33
jbaileyTell me what the right thing is. =)06:33
jbaileyI can easily take the &language; out of the string.06:34
jbaileyI don't know if I can make it pick dynamically if an image is either localised or not.06:34
jbaileyRight now we have things lke:06:34
jbailey                <imagedata fileref="../../images/&language;/UbuntuLogo.png" format="PNG"/>06:34
jsgotangcoyes06:35
jbaileyWhat would you like it to be?06:36
jsgotangcowhat is your recommendation? I'd rather have it just simply /images/foo or at least ./images/foo06:37
jbaileySure.  It depends if the images are common or not.06:39
jbaileyI need to grab food.  Will you be around in 30m or so?06:39
jsgotangcosure06:40
jsgotangcoi'll wait06:40
