[12:07] only cold ones [12:08] LaserJock, we prefer the term "Liberal" [12:08] ice hockey isn't a sport [12:08] it's just fighting [12:08] it is not a dirty word here [12:10] Burgwork: hehe. better watch out, I'm from solidly Red states :-) [12:10] mdke: and fighting isn't a sport? [12:11] nah [12:12] well, hockey does seem like just a reason to skate around and knock each others teeth out [12:12] LaserJock, funny, red is the colour of the Liberal party here. Blue is the colour of the Conservatives === mdke shudders at the liberals [12:12] Burgwork: yes, very weird. Red is also used a lot for communist countries. I don't know why we got stuck with red [12:13] mdke, neither the liberals or the conservatives are very friendly to the needs of open content and open source [12:15] Burgwork: you need to become a politician [12:15] mdke, you are not the only person to tell me that [12:15] i bet === mgalvin [n=mgalvin@ubuntu/member/mgalvin] has joined #ubuntu-doc [12:16] what makes you think I would be a good politician?

[05:54] whoosh [05:54] well spotted [05:55] no idea how that happened [05:55] yeah Dean Sas has its own copyright [05:56] the version in the repo is ok. [05:56] how odd [05:57] this is a fresh flight 7 [05:58] and opening the file with yelp normally is also ok. [05:58] jsgotangco: are you on en_GB? [05:59] dsas appears to have claimed copyright for himself in the en_GB version [05:59] ;) === dsas doesn't know how that has happened. [06:00] did you translate about-ubuntu to en_GB? [06:00] Yeah, sure did. [06:02] hmm [06:03] mdke: yeah [06:03] i guess that's the reason [06:03] it must have taken it from translator-credits [06:03] interesting behavior [06:03] yeah i'm on en_GB [06:04] it hasn't done it for italian though === rocky [i=chunki_b@59.95.128.50] has joined #ubuntu-doc === rocky [i=chunki_b@59.95.128.50] has left #ubuntu-doc [] [06:04] Surely it should go to ubuntu-l10n-en-gb if anyone. [06:04] that explains it, didn't expect an en_GB translation :D [06:04] ah, it's done it for korean [06:04] dsas: you have to put that in translator-credits then. You put your name/email address in [06:04] dsas: no offense, meant, it was just odd behavior on how it rendered after translation [06:05] mdke: perhaps this is normal behavior [06:05] yeah, it's not a problem. But I always think it's better to have translator-credits as the translator team, rather than an individual [06:06] that's true, its a rosetta issue [06:06] or rather the pot? [06:06] I'll put it over to the ubuntu-l10n-en-gb team, I think that's instep with what others have done, and looks tidier than a long list of people. [06:06] i think it only defaults to the first person who added it [06:06] jsgotangco: it's up to the translator to decide what to do. [06:10] maybe a default to the team would be nice [06:12] I imagine things getting messy unless people do, do that. I wonder how it handles upstream translations. [06:34] ciao [06:35] Hmm, it appears that the exploit I discovered when translating about-ubuntu which let you translate without being in a team has been fixed. [06:36] So I'll have get membership of the group to change it. [06:40] in CSS, margin: 0 0 0 5px; implies a 5px marginal indent from which side? [06:40] going inwards north, east, south or west...? [06:44] I think it's top, bottom, left, right. === jenda [n=jenda@unaffiliated/jenda] has joined #ubuntu-doc [06:45] ah, good [06:45] thanks === klepas grumbles... why could they not follow the compass in a clockwise direction === lakin [n=lakin@S01060013101832ce.cg.shawcable.net] has joined #ubuntu-doc [06:47] It makes doing margin: 0 0 for giving top+bottom 0 and left+right 0, slightly more sense I think. [06:50] what exactly is the difference between padding and margins...? [06:51] margins are outside the imaginary box and padding is inside it. [06:52] http://www.brainjar.com/css/positioning/default.asp [06:53] padding will make the boxes background grow outside [06:54] cheers [06:54] whoops, didn't mean to press enter... Padding makes the boxes background (or whatever) grow bigger/smaller, whilst a margin will push it away from other boxes without carrying on it's effect. [06:54] if that makes sense :/ [06:55] yea, it does [06:55] mhh [06:55] given something like blockquote, code, h1 and so forth [06:55] what is 'select'? [06:58] Uhm I'm not sure I know what you mean. I can't think of anything. [06:58] Do you mean selector perhaps? === mpt [n=mpt@203-109-236-140.bliink.ihug.co.nz] has left #ubuntu-doc ["http://mpt.net.nz/"] [06:58] that might be it [06:59] i'm trying to figure out how i can change the textarea input box's border colour upon selection [06:59] Ohhh, that kind of select. === mpt [n=mpt@203-109-236-140.bliink.ihug.co.nz] has joined #ubuntu-doc [07:01] It'd be a pseudo class, but I'm not sure there is a pseudo class called attribute.
