LaserJockjsgotangco: hi!04:38
jsgotangcohey!04:38
LaserJockjsgotangco: I had a talk with Ian today about the developer's reference04:38
jsgotangcooh neat04:38
jsgotangcowhat happened?04:39
LaserJockhe said to grab the docbook04:39
LaserJock!04:39
jsgotangcolol04:39
LaserJockso I'm going to switch over to doing the thing in docbook04:39
LaserJockI also mentioned that there is a newer version out04:40
jsgotangcoid like to dive in to that for this cycle04:40
=== theCore [n=alex@modemcable024.137-83-70.mc.videotron.ca] has joined #ubuntu-doc
LaserJockhe said to just grab the latest I can get04:40
jsgotangcook do you already have a plan for it?04:40
LaserJockhe said for the most part it will be tough no matter what we do, which I agree with04:40
LaserJocknot sure04:41
LaserJockI'd like to do some revision control04:41
jsgotangcohmm04:41
jsgotangcodo you prefer it on our svn or bzr?04:41
nixternalFujitsu_: it seems all i need now are the header.png files, tab background files..images04:42
LaserJockI'm thinking it would be better to do it bzr perhaps, what do you think?04:42
LaserJockI tend to think putting it in the doc team repo is not a good idea04:42
Fujitsu_nixternal, aha... Can you grab them from the webserver, or should I tar them up?04:43
nixternali can try to grab um via right click save i guess..but i don't know about tabs04:43
jsgotangcoLaserJock: i'm all for bzr but if its too big, we should put it elsewhere and not in LP imo04:43
jsgotangcoi like the idea of having all the revisions as well04:44
LaserJockbig as far as size?04:44
Fujitsu_nixternal, just find them in ubuntu.com.au/images/whatever04:44
jsgotangcoyeah04:44
jsgotangcobut since they're just source files i dont think they're that big04:44
nixternalroger that04:45
nixternalthanks04:45
LaserJock3.0MB is the whole thing with HTML and pdf versions04:45
jsgotangcothat's not bad04:45
jsgotangcocan't we just use the source files?04:45
LaserJockI think so04:46
LaserJockI need to get the docbook source first though04:46
LaserJockI emailed about it today04:47
jsgotangcoahh so its not somewhere out there04:47
LaserJockapparently not yet04:47

Madpilotkgoetz, wiki pages would be the best place to start11:33
kgoetzMadpilot: ok. i'll do that then11:35
=== kgoetz is happy to do xml as well, as long as its going to be usefull :) its to much work for not being used
MadpilotI've no idea what *any* of that stuff is, though ;)11:35
Madpilotkgoetz, if it's server-level stuff, ask on the list about adding to the Server Guide; if it's desktop stuff, we might be able to find space for it in an expanded Desktop Guide. In either case, start on the wiki11:36

mpt__Tango & Cash?01:44
mpt__yes!01:44
mpt__search01:44
mdkewould you be prepared to engage with the moin people to ask about whether the moin search can do what you need it to do for yelp?01:45
=== manicka [n=manicka@ubuntu/member/manicka] has joined #ubuntu-doc
mdkeobviously the moin search is pretty deeply ingraining because it is used for a lot of features, like categories, and other macros. But maybe in 1.5 there have been some improvements and you can talk about whether you can make it yelp-happy01:46
mpt__ok01:47
manickathe gui editing in 1.5 would be  a bonus for new contributers01:48
mdkempt__: BTW, I haven't said thanks yet for everything you are doing upstream, it's really great01:50
mdkemanicka: well need to have a think about whether we want to allow gui editing  it might have a detrimental effect and make people lazy about formatting. that was something the new webmaster mentioned to me the other day. Anyway, we will certainly be moving to Moin 1.5 very soon01:51
mpt__hmm, it's not looking promising01:56
manickawho is the new webmaster01:56
mdkemanicka: guy called Matthew Nuzum01:57
mdkempt__: the search thing?01:57
manickak01:57
mpt__mdke, yes, see http://moinmoin.wikiwikiweb.de/MoinMoinTodo/ExtendedSearch02:03
mpt__particularly the later sections02:03
mdkeright02:05
mdkempt__: what about the integration with yelp. You mentioned something about GET?02:05
mpt__mdke, that's no big deal, it just means that Yelp has to be able to generate the search URL itself -- that's possible with Moin as it is currently02:06
mdkeoh, fine02:06
mdkeI may have misunderstood that bug. So the yelp integration is now currently possible?02:07
mpt__so Ubuntu Yelp would have prefix = "https://help.ubuntu.com/community?action=fullsearch&context=180&value=" and suffix = "&fullsearch=Text"02:07
mdkeright02:07
mpt__yes, it just produces bad results02:08
mdkeso the points about including markup is just a basic bug with moin, I don't see why any presentational wiki would want that behaviour02:08
mpt__https://help.ubuntu.com/community?action=fullsearch&context=180&value=how+do+I+burn+a+cd%3F&fullsearch=Text02:08
mdkeincluding www.u.c02:08
mdkethe point about stop words too02:09
mpt__https://help.ubuntu.com/community?action=fullsearch&context=180&value=synaptic+error&fullsearch=Text02:09
mpt__etc02:09
mdkesounds like a feature request that would be useful for moin in general, not just our wiki02:09
mpt__true02:10
mdkeif you don't get a good reply on #moin, try the mailing list02:11
mdkegmane.comp.web.wiki.moin.general if you use gmane02:11
mdkeotherwise, it's on their wiki somewhere02:11
manickamdke, I've just been having a good look at the user docs section... things are much neater now :)02:15
manickaIs there any interest in porting of existing data from the udsf or forums to the wiki.02:18
manickaI'm interested because user generated how-tos still seem to be a 'search and find' only affair02:22
manickahmm, i just noticed that they are ther but you have to dig quite deep to find them02:23
manickaI guess i'm asking... what if I could gather a team to start moving some guides over02:24
manickawhere would they go? 02:25
manickaetc?02:25
manickawhat process would need to be followed?02:25
mpt__First, fix the help.ubuntu.com license problem02:26
mpt__Then, ask the individual authors02:26
manickawhat license problem?02:27
mpt__That stuff contributed to the wiki so far is of ambiguous license and therefore cannot be incorporated, for example, into GFDL/CC-BY-SA help pages02:28
kgoetzso do people need to explicity licence their pages? or its now asumed under free licence?02:32
mpt__kgoetz, eventually, hopefully, all *new* pages will be public domain02:32
mpt__with all old pages remaining under the ambiguous license02:33
=== kgoetz asumed his edits were 'free'
mdkemanicka: yes, I'm about to embark on another dialogue with the UDSF people02:51
mdkemanicka: as for the process, it is documented at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WikiGuide02:52
mdkeI added "porting material from the forums" as one of the objectives of the wiki team at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WikiToDo02:53

jsgotangcoor UDSF03:20
jsgotangcogahh these military style acronyms03:20
mdkeit is yeah, except they have their own site. I'd like to see some material filtering onto the help wiki. maybe the UDSF people can help03:22
mdkemanicka: if you want to draw up a formal group for that sort of thing, that would be a good idea I think... we can document it and it can be a subset of the wikiteam03:22
mdkempt__: about that search thing, if you can draw up a few ideas, maybe even a spec, I think we might be able to find a few people interested in working on the code.03:25

mdkempt__: sorry yeah, need to reply. I think it may be difficult to achieve this with docbook in the time we have for edgy, and waiting for upstream's more simple markup with modular help may work better03:35
mdkewe can do our best tho03:35
