jsgotangco | ahh | 07:49 |
jsgotangco | Burgundavia, its Tux Magazine's latest issue | 07:50 |
Madpilot | jsgotangco: you know the standard LiveCD start - choose language, choose locale, etc? It didn't happen with this Flight6 liveCD... | 07:50 |
jsgotangco | we got a dismal 1 on mutlimedia | 07:50 |
jsgotangco | heh | 07:50 |
Burgundavia | is this the tux distro shootout? | 07:50 |
jsgotangco | hmm interesting.. | 07:50 |
jsgotangco | Burgundavia, yeah | 07:50 |

Madpilot | He was rude about Gnome, let's deny him membership! :D | 08:20 |
poningru | konq would be happy | 08:20 |
jsgotangco | highvoltage, what happened to his supposed contribution to edubuntu? | 08:21 |
poningru | he did what now? | 08:21 |
highvoltage | jsgotangco: he wouldn't put a license on it :( | 08:21 |
jsgotangco | gee | 08:21 |
highvoltage | jsgotangco: we can't distribute anything without a license | 08:21 |
jsgotangco | yes | 08:21 |
highvoltage | jsgotangco: ogra pested him quite a bit, but he didn't get back to us | 08:21 |
highvoltage | he just gave us the code and said "use it", but didn't attach a license | 08:22 |
poningru | he lives in the US right? | 08:22 |
jsgotangco | yes | 08:22 |
poningru | then its full copyright and all rights reserved | 08:22 |

jsgotangco | poningru, that's the assumption when you're in the US? | 08:24 |
Burgundavia | highvoltage: who gave you code? | 08:24 |
poningru | jsgotangco: yes | 08:24 |
Burgundavia | jsgotangco: any country that has signed the berne convention on copyrights | 08:24 |
jsgotangco | ahh | 08:24 |

jsgotangco | computer software is artistic? | 08:25 |
Madpilot | in the broadest sense, sure | 08:25 |
Burgundavia | anything is artistic | 08:25 |
Burgundavia | pretty much | 08:25 |
Burgundavia | minor edits to something are not artisitic and thus probably don;t fall under copyright | 08:26 |
Madpilot | Dog, XChat-Gnome made the sound-alerts thing a seperate plugin, rather than just a basic option... have I mentioned how much I dislike this app? :P | 08:27 |
highvoltage | Burgundavia: Linus Torvalds | 08:27 |
Burgundavia | Madpilot: ugh, that is ridiculous | 08:28 |
highvoltage | Burgundavia: it's a back-end tool to track the ammount of time a user is logged in to the system, you can also limit the ammount of time a user may be logged in | 08:28 |
Burgundavia | very cool | 08:28 |
Burgundavia | Linus wrote it? | 08:28 |
highvoltage | Burgundavia: Linus wrote it to stop his kids fighting over who could use the computer | 08:28 |
highvoltage | yep. | 08:28 |
Burgundavia | rofl | 08:28 |
Burgundavia | but he attached no copyright to it | 08:29 |
highvoltage | ogra started working on integrating it with the student control panel front-end in edubuntu, but we can't include it until we have that license :/ | 08:29 |

poningru | oh wow you got to that a lot faster than me | 08:32 |
Burgundavia | highvoltage: http://userful.com/products/pre-book | 08:32 |
Burgundavia | highvoltage: no license on that either, but it IS open source. I will fix that next week | 08:32 |
highvoltage | Burgundavia: by definition, it can't be open source if it doesn't have a license | 08:32 |

poningru | something like that | 08:39 |
Burgundavia | the former | 08:39 |

Burgundavia | poningru: some ;) | 08:46 |
poningru | hehe /me looks around for price quotes | 08:47 |
jsgotangco | Burgundavia, you seem to enjoy it though | 08:47 |
Burgundavia | more than breadbox, less than a space trip | 08:47 |
Burgundavia | poningru: don't bother | 08:47 |
poningru | hehe nm | 08:47 |
Burgundavia | we hide it | 08:47 |
poningru | yeah understandable | 08:47 |
poningru | its a service industry it seems | 08:47 |
Burgundavia | by the time I have told you the price, hopefully I will already have you in my "tender" embrace | 08:48 |

Madpilot | :P | 08:49 |
Burgundavia | in all seriousness, library software ain't cheap | 08:49 |
jsgotangco | yes | 08:50 |
Burgundavia | our product isn't bad, for what you get | 08:50 |
poningru | see the thing is our library only has donated stuff and they just use the win license already on it (semi-legal) | 08:50 |
=== trappist desices to start writing library software | ||

poningru | yeah I was looking at that | 08:51 |
poningru | although dont know what those latter two are | 08:51 |
=== poningru googles | ||
Madpilot | trappist: please, write a decent catalog-control app. The one I have to use at work sucks dead donkey schlong | 08:51 |
Burgundavia | I am working with Vuntz to get pessulus to the point of being useful for public computers | 08:52 |
Burgundavia | Madpilot: bug the koha people | 08:52 |
Burgundavia | then convince GVPL to migrate | 08:52 |
poningru | oh yeah | 08:52 |
poningru | is that what ubuntu calls 'lock down agent' or something? | 08:52 |
Burgundavia | yep | 08:52 |
poningru | err lockdown editor | 08:52 |
robotgeek | Madpilot: tellico? | 08:52 |
robotgeek | Madpilot: oh, you gnome ppl | 08:52 |
Madpilot | robotgeek: the library catalog thing we have to use is called Millenium; the front-end is actually a giant Java app... | 08:53 |
poningru | yeah that is what I was going to take to my library system | 08:53 |
poningru | edubuntu + lockdown editor | 08:53 |
robotgeek | Madpilot: hmm, okay! | 08:53 |
Burgundavia | the one piece you will not beat Userful on is the Multiseat stuff | 08:54 |
poningru | true | 08:56 |
Burgundavia | the in-X multiseat stuff sucks, tbh | 08:56 |
poningru | but we have bunch of old hardware running win 95 and usually an ok new server | 08:56 |
poningru | that is per library btw | 08:56 |
poningru | the 'server' is used to keep track of many things including book checkout | 08:57 |
poningru | and communication with the mainframe downtown | 08:57 |
poningru | I should learn their system better before trying to figure out a software plan | 08:57 |
poningru | err software attack plan | 08:57 |
Burgundavia | yep | 08:58 |
Burgundavia | figure out what their biggest needs and pains are | 08:58 |
Burgundavia | and then figure out how edubuntu can solve them | 08:58 |
poningru | yeah | 08:58 |
poningru | I should volunteer at a library this summer just to find out what kind of system they use | 08:59 |
poningru | s/system/backend systems | 08:59 |
poningru | robotgeek: rofl I love the advice you give at the end | 09:00 |

LaserJock | What should be the capitalization for application names? | 07:07 |
crimsun | e.g.? | 07:08 |
LaserJock | Pbuilder vs. pbuilder in titles and at the beginning of a sentence | 07:10 |
Kamping_Kaiser | imo anything that foollows a full stop is capitalised | 07:10 |
crimsun | Ah, I wouldn't use it that way. I would use "pbuilder" later in the sentence, because it shouldn't be "Pbuilder." | 07:11 |
crimsun | I normally check the man page. | 07:11 |
=== joachim-n [n=joachim@ACD67778.ipt.aol.com] has joined #ubuntu-doc | ||
crimsun | e.g., To execute pbuilder, do such and such. | 07:12 |
crimsun | instead of: | 07:12 |
crimsun | pbuilder can be executed by doing such and such. | 07:12 |
LaserJock | but for instance I have a section titled "Using Pbuilder", should that be "Using pbuilder" | 07:13 |
crimsun | Consistency is key. Since the man page for pbuilder uses lowercase, lowercase should be used there. | 07:14 |
LaserJock | even if the rest of the title is capitalized? | 07:15 |
crimsun | I would, yes. | 07:15 |
LaserJock | hmm, ok | 07:17 |
crimsun | Note that you can skirt the issue by using: "Using Personal builder (pbuilder)" | 07:17 |
crimsun | http://www.netfort.gr.jp/~dancer/software/pbuilder.html | 07:17 |
crimsun | However, "Pbuilder" is incorrect. | 07:17 |
LaserJock | hmm, so the pbuilder section on http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/packagingguide/C/index.html should be changed | 07:18 |
crimsun | yes. | 07:18 |
crimsun | Additionally, prepositions should not be capitalised. | 07:18 |
crimsun | "Building with Personal builder (pbuilder)" | 07:19 |
LaserJock | arggh, now I have to figure out what a prepostion is ;-) | 07:20 |

mdke | especially mpt__ :) | 10:14 |
mgalvin | maybe server guide before the packaging guide? so it reads... desktop, server, packaging... seems like a better flow to me | 10:16 |
mgalvin | imho | 10:16 |
mdke | yes, good point. Dunno if that's possible though, it looks alphabetical | 10:16 |
mgalvin | ah | 10:17 |
mdke | but the main thing is swapping the ubuntu and non-ubuntu sections, and what the text should be for the bottom section | 10:17 |
LaserJock | I could chang the name of the PG to the Ubuntu Super Dupa' Packaging Guide ;-) | 10:23 |
