nixternal_speaking of the doc freeze..i am correct that it is within 24 hours correct?03:57
nixternal_LaserJock: you are working on the packaging guide correct?03:57
Burgundavianixternal_: yes, yes you are03:58
nixternal_oh lord im scared ;)03:58
jsgotangcothis is one cycle i didnt do anything significant04:03
nixternal_me either jsgotangco, so don't feel bad04:03
robotgeeknixternal_: howz the KDG looking :)04:15
robotgeeki've identified a list of things i need to do for the desktop guide. i'll get it done tonight 04:15
nixternal_hehe...i have the KDG and the 2 topics you said on the top of my todo list for tonight ;)04:17
nixternal_it should be fine, nothing more than changing Dapper into &distro-version;04:17
nixternal_i have found a lot of "Dapper" instead of the &distro-version; in some of hte docs04:17
nixternal_i have been taking care of them little by little as well04:18
=== bhuvan [n=bhuvan@ubuntu/member/bhuvan] has joined #ubuntu-doc
robotgeekthe menus have changed in System Settings that affects a bunch of things04:22
nixternal_oh wow, that is true04:24
nixternal_the sys settings are smaller now..so it is just merging what was there in a new layout kind of04:24
robotgeekyeah, a few guiitem/whatever change04:25
nixternal_i hate guiitem...if i go by ear, i tend to switch them from scratch at times..thank god for ../validate.sh04:26
LaserJocknixternal_: yeah, kinda04:41
LaserJocknixternal_: I hope I can get it in some sort of decent shape04:41
=== robotgeek hopes he does not have to reboot. on edgy live cd, and installed a bunch of stuff to get doc working
nixternal_ok..im heading home..i will get on and we will work some stuff out tonight04:41
nixternal_LaserJock: let me work a little on release notes and help robotgeek a little with the kdg..and then i will help you out if needed04:42
LaserJockI might have to ask for a freeze exception for the packaging guide04:42
LaserJockit's the least translated doc so I don't think it's a huge deal04:42
=== jsgotangco [n=jsg123@ubuntu/member/jsgotangco] has joined #ubuntu-doc
robotgeekhmm, ubuntu desktop guide does not link to add-applications.xml chapter05:57
robotgeekalso donot forget to add stuff about commerical repository to that chapter, it is referenced in realplayer installation. if i am done with it on kubuntu, feel free to copy05:58

lloydinhoI tried to fix up the patch which apparently didn't work out before.04:59
nixternalso did i miss anything exciting around here ;)04:59
lloydinhoThis place is eerily quiet, it's true.04:59

nixternaltrappist: you around?05:35
trappistyeah, what's up?05:36
nixternalwhat is the correct way to apply a patch so i don't get all the questions on which file to patch?05:37
nixternalomg im a moron05:38
nixternalnever mind ;)05:38
trappistit depends on the patch, but usually you're in the root dir of the... ok :)05:38
nixternallol05:38
nixternalya...i wasn't even in the freakin' trunk dir05:38
trappistheh05:39
nixternali have a repos/ directory, and htne under it is /dapper and /trunk respectfully05:39
nixternali was sitting in the repos dir...ddin't make it all the way to trunk ;)05:39
trappistyeah I do it the same way and often make the same mistake05:41
nixternallloydinho: it isn't validating, but i am going to look it over quickly and see if it would be rather easy..it seems it would be, since they are just xref validity errors05:41
lloydinhoare you validating the internet.xml or the desktopguide.xml?05:42
nixternaldesktopguide.xml ;)05:42
lloydinhohm. That is odd. It validates fine here.05:42
nixternalnm ;)05:42
nixternalok..i need more coffeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee05:43
lloydinhoyikes. That sounds like a lot of coffee.05:43
nixternalit is one of them days05:43
nixternali am starting out retarded05:43
nixternali do this type of work day in and day out..and today of all days, i decide to go against the grain ;)05:44
lloydinhoah, I know that feeling. Where you have to slowly beat your head in to shape to get some work done.05:44
nixternalyup05:46
nixternalwell you patch has been applied sir!05:46
lloydinhoWhy, thank you! :-) 05:46
nixternalso how are we looking?05:48
nixternalhave we been frozen yet?05:48
lloydinhoI don't think it works like that..05:48
lloydinhoI wouldn't really know.05:49

nixternalhiya mgalvin05:49
lloydinhoOh, did you also add the switchingfromwindows.omf to the SVN tree?05:49
mgalvinhi nixternal 05:49
nixternalwill do that now lloydinho05:50
nixternalor doing that now rather05:50
lloydinhonixternal, awesome. I think that's the last change I can think of, for now.05:51
lloydinhoThen I'll go bug the desktop team about the final freeze.05:51
nixternaldone!05:53
lloydinhogreat!05:55
=== lloydinho wanders off to #ubuntu-desktop
lloydinhookay, the docs are handed off, but can't be uploaded because of the knot freeze. So hopefully, everything will work out okay.06:02
lloydinhoGo team! :-)06:02
nixternalwoot..that gives a little time06:03
nixternalwe might not get frozen for a few hours then ;)06:03
nixternalhurry..lets start and finish the kubuntu switching guide ;)06:03
lloydinhohaha! Go for it! :-)06:03

=== LaserJock wanders off to finish the packaging guide
nixternalhehe06:36
nixternalyou need help at all, ping me06:36
nixternalas long as it isn't to "packing in-depth" ;)06:36
nixternalim still a packaging noob..i only have 1 lonely package ;)06:36
LaserJockwell, I rearranged the structure a bit06:43
LaserJockbut I haven't had the time to work on it06:43
LaserJockand none of the devs seem eager to help :-)06:43
nixternalof course not06:45
LaserJocknixternal: do you know if somebody is going to announce translations?06:58
LaserJocks/translations/the start of translation/06:58
nixternalhaven't heard anything about it...are you referring to edgy translations?06:58
LaserJockyes06:58
nixternali believe that has already been announced06:58
LaserJockwell, the doc freeze is to give translators time to translate06:59
LaserJockin dapper mdke sent an announcment to -translators after he had all the .pots up06:59
nixternalhmm..maybe i am thinking of something else then06:59
LaserJockwell, edgy was opened up from translation some time ago07:00
nixternalwell then..maybe we should carry on the tradition then...and maybe tomorrow or within the next couple of days, get the pots out there and announce it?07:00
LaserJockbut for docs it's a bit different than program translation07:00
LaserJockyeah, except who knows how to put the .pots up?07:00
LaserJockand who can do it?07:00
nixternali can look at it07:00
nixternalcreating the .pots are rather easy07:00
LaserJocksure07:01
LaserJockbut getting them on rosseta07:01
nixternali know how to get them off of rosetta07:01
LaserJocklast time I think only mdke had access to put them up07:01
nixternali will look into rosetta a little later today, and maybe chat up with some of the rosetta guys07:01
nixternalahhh07:01
LaserJockmdke+rosetta admins07:01
LaserJockat least07:01
nixternalwell then that would really stink if we couldn't..but then again..i think he should be back in about a week or so07:02
LaserJockwell, I'm trying to figure out what to do with the packaging guide07:02
nixternalso hold off on translation stuff until he gets back...if that is the case about putting the pot files on rosetta07:02
nixternalim hungry, who's buying lunch?07:03
LaserJockyou apparently ;-)07:03
LaserJockI brought lunch07:03
nixternalargh ;)07:04
LaserJockugg, this is a mess07:04
nixternalim applying for an IT job at my church07:04
nixternaljust a job during school07:04
LaserJockcoolio07:04
nixternaland plus an "IN" for getting Linux and OSS into the system there ;)07:05
LaserJockmhm07:05
nixternalthe one thing i kind of dislike about the church, is there is a little bit of politics involved..but it is a great church in every other aspect.07:06
robotgeeknixternal: everything alrite?07:06
nixternali can see and hear this morning, and im still 6 feet above ground, so i guess so ;)07:06
nixternalthe ati and nvidia section was ok in the desktop guide..and i fixed the disk and filesystems so they point to the new location in system settings07:07
nixternali will brb..i need some food07:07
robotgeekokay. i guess we are fine then. jjesse (or someone else) had gotten to the changes already07:07
LaserJockoh stink07:40
LaserJockare we supposed to use something in place of ' ?07:41
