|---|---|---|
| robotgeek | LaserJock: as in the away "message" or just plain away? | 12:05 |
| LaserJock | robotgeek: as in, in the users list I can't tell if people are away or not. | 12:06 |
| robotgeek | LaserJock: hmm, okay. konversation (dapper) seems to be working fine | 12:06 |
| LaserJock | yeah, I loved having a konsole tab | 12:07 |
| LaserJock | but now I have to find OSX alternatives, or at least find OSX ports :( | 12:08 |
| robotgeek | i suppose you are using irssi in OS X | 12:09 |
| crimsun | as in http://pdb.finkproject.org/pdb/package.php/xchat ? | 12:09 |
| crimsun | (or http://pdb.finkproject.org/pdb/package.php/konversation ) | 12:09 |

| LaserJock | hi Madpilot | 12:18 |
| Madpilot | hi | 12:18 |
| Burgwork | salut Madpilot | 12:20 |
| Madpilot | hi Burgwork - I'm home with a bug, lucky me... :P | 12:26 |
| dsas | I'm sure there's a malone joke to be made there somewhere. | 12:27 |
| LaserJock | lol | 12:27 |
| Burgwork | oh joy | 12:28 |
| LaserJock | I had sistpoty sponsor an upload of bugsx for me, but he said that he sure hated uploading bugs ;-) | 12:28 |
| Burgwork | remind me not to talk to you for at few days, I need to finish this bloody book | 12:28 |
| Madpilot | Burgwork: your response is very generous :P | 12:30 |
| LaserJock | Burgwork: I'm sure it will be really cool once it's done though. I look forward to it | 12:30 |
| mdke | robotgeek, pong | 12:43 |
| mdke | LaserJock, nice work on that copyright stuff | 12:44 |
| Madpilot | LaserJock: have we changed all the docs over to GPL, then? I thought most of them were still dual CC-By-SA/GFDL? | 12:46 |
| LaserJock | Madpilot: no | 12:46 |
| Burgwork | Madpilot, no | 12:46 |
| LaserJock | Madpilot: the Packaging Guide is the only GPL'd doc | 12:46 |
| Madpilot | so why do we need the GPL stuff in the UDG? | 12:46 |
| mdke | Madpilot, it's just the scripts that are gpl | 12:46 |
| LaserJock | I GPL'd the shell scripts | 12:47 |
| LaserJock | and the Makefiles | 12:47 |
| LaserJock | mdke: the only thing I am still concerned about is the .css files | 12:47 |
| Madpilot | OK, I misunderstood the commit emails, then | 12:47 |
| Madpilot | never mind | 12:47 |
| LaserJock | mdke: some of them are GPL'd but others seem to be sort of PD and some don't have anything | 12:47 |
| LaserJock | Madpilot: might have just been my commit logs confusing you :( | 12:48 |
| mdke | LaserJock, right. they are possibly based on the ubuntu css... | 12:48 |
| mdke | i'll have a closer look tomorrow | 12:48 |
| LaserJock | mdke: so I really don't know what to do with them. Technically I think we should have something. But it really doesn't seem like a big deal | 12:48 |
| LaserJock | mdke: other than that I think we are set as far as the ubuntu-docs package. Kubuntu has similar issues but I didn't know if I should mess around there | 12:49 |
| mdke | it might be worth pointing it out to jjesse or Riddell | 12:50 |
| LaserJock | mdke: I was thinking about that. I wonder if they are up? | 12:50 |
| mdke | riddell is always up | 12:50 |
| LaserJock | true :-) | 12:50 |
| mdke | but emailing the list will work too | 12:51 |
| mdke | -> bed | 12:51 |
| LaserJock | yeah, for some reason I just haven't gotten used to emailing. I read them a lot but I just tend to not send any. | 12:52 |
| LaserJock | cya mdke | 12:52 |

| rob | work has been smashing me lately | 12:57 |
| Madpilot | could someone commit manicka's UDG diff, please? | 01:06 |
| crimsun | LaserJock: I should be working with generic/packagingguide/C, correct? | 01:07 |
| LaserJock | crimsun: yeah | 01:14 |
| LaserJock | crimsun: sorry, the universities Laser Safety Officer came by :( | 01:14 |
| Madpilot | LaserJock: and told you to take the lasers off the shark's heads? :P | 01:16 |
| crimsun | LaserJock: thanks | 01:16 |
| LaserJock | Madpilot: actually yeah, we had to replace our cool "shark with laser" warning sign with a boring one | 01:16 |
| crimsun | now is just reads "jordan with laser" :-P | 01:17 |

| LaserJock | crimsun: are you looking at a specific part of the packaging guide or just reviewing it? | 01:20 |
| crimsun | right now I'm fighting termcap, but I'll be reviewing it | 01:22 |
| LaserJock | brb, gotta so some quick wavelength separation ;-) | 01:22 |

| rob | nasty | 01:33 |
| Madpilot | hey, I only kicked one person - kicking people for rank stupidity isn't actually allowed :P | 01:35 |
| LaserJock | Madpilot: flexing those newly CC approved muscles? ;-) | 01:36 |
| Madpilot | well, for stupidity of the "I'm a noob and can't read docs" variety | 01:36 |
| Madpilot | LaserJock: just a bit - someone spammed four away messages in about two minutes, so they had to leave... | 01:36 |
| Burgwork | #ubuntu is hopping right now | 01:37 |
| LaserJock | Madpilot: man, they need you over in #bzr, there was somebody disconnecting and reconnecting every few minutes for days | 01:37 |
| manicka | in some sections of the desktop guide it says in a note - You must use Synaptic Package Manager to install this package | 01:38 |
| manicka | should those be in or out? | 01:40 |
| Madpilot | manicka: in - those should be on things that aren't in Add Applications | 01:40 |
| manicka | ah, ok | 01:41 |
| LaserJock | Madpilot: but you don't have to use Synaptic for them, maybe it is better to say that you can't use Add Applications? | 01:41 |
| Madpilot | it's a desktop guide, we're sticking with the GUI stuff for simplicity | 01:42 |
| Burgwork | we advocate a gui solution over any other | 01:42 |
| Burgwork | if you know about apt-get, you likely already know that you can install those packages via that | 01:42 |
| Madpilot | I think there's a short apt-get section in the Adding Applications chapter, though | 01:42 |
| manicka | wouldn't a link to Adding, Removing and Updating Applications be better | 01:43 |
| Burgwork | manicka, that involves a lot of extra clicking by the user | 01:43 |
| Burgwork | sometimes you just have to provide a good default and stick with it | 01:43 |
| manicka | there's nothing in the apt-get section | 01:43 |
| Burgwork | Madpilot, so restore pretty much blew me off today. Most annoyed | 01:44 |
| Madpilot | Burgwork: not interested in getting into computers? | 01:44 |
| LaserJock | I was more thinking along the lines of what if we have another GUI package manager. I guess we could cross that bridge when we get there. | 01:44 |
| Burgwork | "they would have to talk about it" | 01:44 |
| robotgeek | mdke: nothing actually, i forgot to compress my patch file, however the situation corrected itself | 01:47 |
| robotgeek | mdke: who do i have to speak to about commit access? | 01:48 |
| LaserJock | robotgeek: I think currently you need to have mdke or a doc team member send a request to elmo, I think. and then you wait | 01:49 |
| robotgeek | LaserJock: ah, okay | 01:50 |
| Madpilot | ...and wait, and wait... :P | 01:50 |
| Burgwork | robotgeek, are you already a member of Ubuntu-doc on LP? | 01:50 |
| robotgeek | Burgwork: only the wiki team, i think. i applied to join, never heard of what happened | 01:51 |
| LaserJock | Burgwork: he is a fresh Ubuntu member though | 01:51 |
| robotgeek | You are a proposed member of this team. To become an active member your subscription has to bo approved by one of the team's administrators. You can't join this team. | 01:51 |
| Madpilot | Burgwork: you're an LP admin for -doc, aren't you? | 01:52 |
| Burgwork | for both doc and wiki | 01:54 |
| Burgwork | mdke, any objections to making robotgeek a member of ubunut-doc? | 01:54 |

| mdke | manicka's patch is pretty good | 10:48 |
| mdke | i'm just making a few changes and then I'll commit it | 10:48 |
| Madpilot | the apt-get one? haven't looked at the diff, but it'll be nice to have something there | 10:49 |
| mdke | yeah, it's good stuff | 10:50 |
| Madpilot | good | 10:50 |
| mdke | what Laserjock said about the "You must use synaptic to install this package" notes, he has a point... | 10:51 |
| mdke | maybe we should say "Use synaptic or apt to install this", or "This is not available in Add/Remove Applications" | 10:51 |
| mdke | dunno | 10:51 |
| Madpilot | I don't like the idea of "This is not available in Add/Remove Applications" - we should always point out where it *is* available | 10:52 |
| mdke | yeah i agree | 10:53 |
| mdke | mvo suggested that we could make a list of all the packages we cite which aren't available, and he would make them available. | 10:53 |
| mdke | i don't know whether that is workable though | 10:53 |
| Madpilot | in Add App? | 10:53 |
| mdke | yes | 10:54 |
| Madpilot | including stuff like codecs that're never going to have .desktop files? | 10:55 |
| mdke | yes, he would make dummy desktop files | 10:55 |
| Madpilot | interesting - I don't think it's needed, though - people should be introduced to Synaptic eventually, after all | 10:55 |
| mdke | i tend to agree | 10:57 |
| mdke | and I can't be bothered to make such a list | 10:57 |
| Madpilot | there's that, too :P | 10:57 |
| mdke | I've opened a bug on the codecs though, because they are so popular | 10:57 |
| Madpilot | desktop files for them? | 10:58 |
| mdke | yeah | 10:58 |
| Madpilot | makes sense - they've got to be the single most-installed set of packages | 10:59 |
| mdke | yeah | 10:59 |
| rob | mdke, when will the docs be frozen? | 11:00 |
| mdke | ok, we now have an APT section | 11:00 |
| mdke | rob, 23 March | 11:00 |
| mdke | iirc | 11:00 |
| rob | ah | 11:00 |
| mdke | check the ReleaseSchedule | 11:00 |
| rob | maybe I can do some proof reading or something, time has been getting away from me lately | 11:00 |
| mdke | hopefully we can start translating earlier though, they are in pretty good shape | 11:00 |
| mdke | rob, that would be cool. The server guide especially needs a bit of reviewing love | 11:01 |
| mdke | rob, we've started updating the status tags so it should be pretty obvious from http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/status | 11:02 |
| rob | ok, I'll check it out | 11:03 |
| rob | I'll have to send patches though if I need to | 11:03 |
| mdke | oh? | 11:03 |
| mdke | lost your password? | 11:03 |
| mdke | we can ask elmo to resend it | 11:04 |
| rob | yeah, mostly because I did the job on my PC and forgot to back up my gpg key | 11:04 |
| mdke | ouch | 11:04 |
| mdke | what's now known as "doing a Madpilot" | 11:04 |
| rob | hehe | 11:04 |
| Madpilot | no, I still had my GPG key, but I'd forgotten my password :P | 11:04 |
| mdke | oh yeah | 11:05 |
| rob | yeah I dont't have both | 11:05 |
| Madpilot | I think Corey nuked one of his GPG keys reformatting, though | 11:05 |
| mdke | "doing a corey" then | 11:05 |
| mdke | Madpilot, see the APT section? | 11:05 |
| Madpilot | just updating now | 11:05 |
| rob | I did a CoreyMadpilot | 11:05 |
| mdke | Madpilot, by the way, I've introduced a few <warning> things for the DVD section and codecs and such, lemme know what you think about those | 11:06 |
| mdke | oh and in the "extra repositories" section | 11:06 |
| Madpilot | looks good - esp. the Apt section | 11:07 |
| Madpilot | I might re-write the Synaptic section there sometime this weekend - it's suffering from a bit of excess verbiage... | 11:08 |
| mdke | alright | 11:09 |
| mdke | the paras are a bit long yeah | 11:09 |
| mdke | i'm just adding some sudo notes to each of those sections | 11:10 |
| mdke | i LOVE the way yelp displays notes and warnings and stuff | 11:10 |
| mdke | makes the page look a lot better | 11:10 |
| Madpilot | the styling is pretty cool - I'm still getting my head around how much more powerful XML/DocBook is compared to regular HTML/CSS | 11:11 |
| mdke | ok committed | 11:12 |
| mdke | I've marked everything as complete except for the synaptic section :D | 11:12 |

| dsas | mdke: ping | 04:39 |
| mdke | dsas, pong | 04:42 |
| dsas | mdke: reading the "windows partition" bit, it tells people to read "list devices" but doesn't really tell people what they should be looking for inside it. Should I write an explanation on the "list devices" bit and explain what they're looking at, or should I explain in the "mount windows partitions bit"? | 04:45 |
| dsas | mdke: rather it doesn't tell people what they're looking for in the "mount" output. | 04:45 |
| mdke | yes, that could be clearer, I guess | 04:46 |
| mdke | if you'd like to expand on the "list devices" section, that would be cool | 04:46 |
| dsas | oh, hang on, I just realised that the "mount windows partitions" refers to disks manager and not 'list devices' | 04:46 |
| mdke | oh yeah | 04:48 |
| mdke | well, any more material there would probably be good | 04:48 |
| dsas | ok, I'll have a look at it. | 04:48 |

| LaserJock | hi manicka | 11:15 |
| manicka | morning :) | 11:15 |
| robotgeek | hey manicka LaserJock | 11:28 |
| manicka | hey | 11:29 |
| LaserJock | hi robotgeek | 11:29 |
| robotgeek | hopefully i will finish "common-tasks.xml" today, and someone will commit it :) | 11:29 |
| mdke | i think we can start committing your stuff straight off | 11:36 |
| mdke | making jjesse do it all is unrealistic, and you are in charge of that doc, so we can just commit no questions asked, IMO | 11:36 |
| robotgeek | mdke: yes, that would be nice. | 11:36 |
| LaserJock | if it is ok, I can do a lot of it. | 11:36 |
| robotgeek | i have about 3 different sets of patches yet to be applied, 2 are one liners, and 1 is major | 11:36 |
| mdke | hmm | 11:37 |
| mdke | mail me a single patch? | 11:37 |
| mdke | with your working copy | 11:37 |
| robotgeek | hmm, or you could just apply the big patch now, (one i mailed yesterday) and i will send in the onliners in my next set? | 11:37 |
| mdke | ok, I'll see if it applies without the others | 11:38 |
| mdke | gah | 11:38 |
| mdke | there are four of em | 11:38 |
| robotgeek | mdke: yes, it does. the first one is for adept, so not to worry about that. | 11:38 |
| robotgeek | pretty self explanatory, i guess :) | 11:39 |
| mdke | robotgeek, i'm lazy, send me one patch for your whole kubuntu/ directory | 11:40 |
| mdke | or will that step on peoples' toes? | 11:40 |
| robotgeek | mdke: hmm, not really. one moment | 11:40 |

| robotgeek | mdke: i am not done with common-tasks.xml yet, so i'll send you a big diff when i am done? | 11:42 |
| mdke | sure, I'll apply it tomorrow morning | 11:43 |
| robotgeek | cool, hopefully i'll be done with that. doing the whole lists -> procedures conversion right now | 11:44 |
| mdke | find/replace :) | 11:45 |
| robotgeek | mdke: yes, also cleaning up the info. merging stuff from UDG too :) | 11:45 |
| mdke | cool, yeah that's not an easy job | 11:46 |
| robotgeek | well, basically editing the UDG file and pasting where relevant in KDG | 11:47 |
| robotgeek | i suddenly also had the urge to clean out my vimrc :) | 11:48 |
| LaserJock | robotgeek: really? I'd be interested in a pastebin of that | 11:50 |
| mdke | Madpilot, i changed the css for the web guides today, any thoughts? | 11:51 |
| robotgeek | LaserJock: sure | 11:51 |
| mdke | manicka, thanks for your patch by the way, that was really helpful | 11:51 |
| Madpilot | mdke: haven't looked, will now | 11:51 |
| manicka | np | 11:51 |
| mdke | Madpilot, http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/index.html | 11:52 |
| manicka | why is there 4 versions of add-applications now | 11:52 |
| LaserJock | mdke: the css for doc.ubuntu.com? | 11:52 |
| robotgeek | LaserJock: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9330 | 11:53 |
| LaserJock | robotgeek: thanks | 11:53 |
| Madpilot | mdke: looks good | 11:53 |
| LaserJock | mdke: I noticed that packaging guide looked different, I like it. | 11:54 |
| mdke | good | 11:54 |
| === robotgeek will steal manicka's section for KDG | ||
| mdke | the lines are a bit closer, and the margins larger, that's about it | 11:54 |
| mdke | manicka, 4 versions? | 11:54 |
| robotgeek | LaserJock: not much there, i guess :) | 11:56 |
| manicka | mdke: in the desktop guide there are 4 versions of add-applications.xml sitting there | 11:57 |
| mdke | manicka, maybe your editor saves old versions? do "svn status" to see which files are under version control | 11:58 |
| mdke | files which are local to your system are marked with "?" | 11:58 |
| manicka | no locals, these appeared when I did an update this morning | 11:59 |
| robotgeek | manicka: do you have something file.xml.mine, file.xml.rxyz | 11:59 |

| mdke | manicka, https://docteam.ubuntu.com/repos/trunk/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/ | 12:00 |
| mdke | it's definitely local stuff | 12:00 |
| manicka | ok, just deleted them then updated, all is well | 12:00 |
| mdke | i wonder why they didn't show up with svn status | 12:01 |
| mdke | weird | 12:01 |
| manicka | nice changes to APT, btw | 12:02 |
| mdke | thanks to you for starting it off :) | 12:03 |
| manicka | it's a pleasure, I can see myself enjoying docbook as i get used to it more | 12:04 |
