| Admiral_Chicago | i'm looking for documentation on Ktorrent. iirc, it was written for and sent upstream | 01:07 |
|---|---|---|
| nixternal | we don't do that kind of documentation, but yes it is upstream somewhere, it is up to the KTorrent guys to build it and get it into KDE | 01:16 |
| Admiral_Chicago | nixternal: i know but i think you said someone wrote it | 01:16 |
| Admiral_Chicago | need help with documentation? | 01:17 |
| nixternal | we always need help with documentation | 01:17 |
| Admiral_Chicago | i figured as much. i noticed "switching from windows to linux" is WIP, it seems interesting could I help with that | 01:18 |
| Admiral_Chicago | btw, did you get my PM? | 01:18 |
| nixternal | what do you think? | 01:19 |
| nixternal | ;p | 01:19 |
| nixternal | Admiral_Chicago: don't look at those old pages, but we have planned a Switching to Kubuntu one that hasn't even started, there is one already for Ubuntu, which I am sure could probably use some editing maybe. i haven't looked at it much | 01:19 |
| nixternal | one guy pretty much wrote it | 01:20 |
| Admiral_Chicago | well nixternal feel free to email me with documentation stuff if you get overloaded with it | 01:20 |
| Admiral_Chicago | hmm Kubuntu sounds interesting, KDE is the best | 01:20 |
| nixternal | shhh | 01:20 |
| nixternal | no DE wars needed | 01:20 |
| === Admiral_Chicago ducks | ||
| nixternal | ya, since there are only 3 of us in here | 01:20 |
| nixternal | 4 | 01:20 |
| Admiral_Chicago | ah i figured out why my bug was happening | 01:21 |

| crimsun | reading. | 03:16 |
| crimsun | nice work! | 03:18 |
| crimsun | I'll touch up some minor grammatical corrections as I go through. | 03:19 |
| === willvdl [n=will@vc-196-207-41-253.3g.vodacom.co.za] has joined #ubuntu-doc | ||
| mihakriket | crimsun: thank you for the feedback. I was thinking on editing the advanced commandline document as it also appears in the CategoryCleanup | 03:35 |
| crimsun | feel free | 03:35 |
| crimsun | It'll take me about 25 more minutes to run through this one. | 03:35 |
| dgold | is lilo used as the defaul boot-manager in any version of ubuntu anymore? The install guide refers solely to it, and only mentions grub as an afterthought | 03:36 |
| mihakriket | crimsun: I will wait until you are completed, so I can see what mistakes I made and avoid making the same ones again. | 03:38 |
| crimsun | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CommandlineHowto is completed. | 03:49 |
| crimsun | dgold: for certain configurations, lilo is required. | 03:49 |
| crimsun | dgold: off the top of my head, installations that use LVM require lilo. | 03:50 |

| mdke | LaserJock: yes | 08:17 |
| mdke | dgold: no, it is maintained by the installer developer in the "installation-guide" package | 08:18 |
| mdke | glatzor: no plans at the moment | 08:18 |
| LaserJock | mdke: just wanted to say that the Open Week session seemed to go OK | 08:18 |
| LaserJock | I just used your stuff from the wiki and nixternal and I answered questions | 08:18 |
| mdke | great, nice work and thanks for doing that | 08:18 |
| mdke | any interest? | 08:18 |
| LaserJock | moderately | 08:19 |
| LaserJock | we had a few people that seemed like they were interested | 08:19 |
| LaserJock | wiki work, etc. | 08:19 |
| mdke | that would be good | 08:20 |
| LaserJock | I think there was one person interested in the forums->wiki stuff | 08:20 |
| mdke | nice | 08:25 |
| glatzor | mdke: the desktop-guide is now completely translated in German | 08:30 |

| === LaserJock [n=mantha@ubuntu/member/laserjock] has joined #ubuntu-doc | ||
| mdke | Mithrandir: yeah, I saw that, that's great. I was after comments from docpeople in the topic based help and articleinfo threads. No need for you to comment on those :) | 09:26 |
| LaserJock | mdke: do you think we can do it in a way that still shows who maintains what? | 09:29 |
| LaserJock | wrt, articleinfo | 09:29 |
| mdke | LaserJock: yes, we can include lists of maintainers in contribute.xml | 09:30 |
| mdke | but if we switch, I don't think we can maintain a list of who has contributed to what (as opposed to who maintains what) | 09:30 |
| LaserJock | would it be possible to put that info somewhere else? | 09:30 |
| LaserJock | it would be nice to acknowledge contributions | 09:31 |
| LaserJock | or will be just have a list of contributors? | 09:31 |
| mdke | they would be acknowledged as contributors to "the documentation" but not linked to a particular document | 09:31 |
| mdke | I tend to think that's ok, but if others disagree, I don't have a problem | 09:31 |
| LaserJock | I think that would be ok | 09:32 |
| LaserJock | people often contribute to more then one doc | 09:32 |
| LaserJock | and I tend to see them as contibutors to the doc team | 09:32 |
| mdke | i think actually it has a kind of advantage | 09:33 |
| mdke | people are seen as part of the team | 09:33 |
| LaserJock | yes, I agree | 09:33 |
| LaserJock | it also should help with consistency | 09:34 |
| mdke | LaserJock: agreed. Have a play around with branches/tbh/common/C/contributors.xml and see what you think | 09:37 |
| mdke | I guess something like: | 09:41 |
| mdke | Ubuntu Documentation Team members: | 09:42 |
| mdke | * Matthew East (Ubuntu documentation) | 09:42 |
| mdke | * Jordan Mantha (Packaging guide) | 09:42 |
| mdke | Other contributors: | 09:42 |
| mdke | * Joe Blogs | 09:42 |
| mdke | etc | 09:42 |
| mdke | that way we can add all the K/Ed/X guys too | 09:43 |
| mdke | btw, LaserJock, have you met the Edubuntu docs guy? | 09:44 |
| mdke | it's great that someone is on board for that | 09:45 |
| LaserJock | mdke: which guy? | 10:15 |
| LaserJock | sorry, wasn't paying attention | 10:16 |

| LaserJock | heh | 10:29 |
| nixternal | ya the handbook has been a tough one | 10:30 |
| nixternal | i know sbalenev or however you spell his name put a lot of work in on the LTSP stuff | 10:30 |
| LaserJock | yeah | 10:33 |
| LaserJock | and that's pretty cool considering he does a large part of the actual LTSP development | 10:33 |

| === mdke orders nixternal's assassination anyway | ||
| nixternal | yay | 10:37 |
| LaserJock | haha | 10:37 |
| LaserJock | I tell you though, there's been a number of times where I've though "I don't need this crap, I'm outta here" | 10:37 |
| LaserJock | but I hang in there | 10:37 |
| nixternal | hehe | 10:37 |
| LaserJock | I gotta tone it down though | 10:38 |
| nixternal | see, with Kubuntu stuff, I never get the feeling, but it is some of the politics and at times a feeling of elite'ism (im not even going to act like I know how to spell that one) that gets me at times | 10:38 |
| nixternal | but i enjoy hanging out, learning new stuff, and having mdke yell at me for committing to the edgy branch, even within a week of being told the first time ;) | 10:39 |
| LaserJock | shesh, these kids will never learn, right mdke? ;-) | 10:39 |
| nixternal | hehe | 10:40 |
| nixternal | i think i have you all on the age side of the kid'dom | 10:40 |
| nixternal | not by much though | 10:40 |
| nixternal | so im like the older kid | 10:40 |
| === mdke nods generally | ||
| LaserJock | yeah, that mental age thing keeps getting you :p | 10:40 |
| nixternal | lol | 10:40 |
| nixternal | 32 on the outside, 12 on the inside | 10:40 |
| mdke | 32? that's way old | 10:41 |
| nixternal | but if i remember correctly, mdke and myself have some killer HAIRdo's | 10:41 |
| nixternal | LaserJock: you have a hairdon't | 10:41 |
| nixternal | ;) | 10:41 |
| LaserJock | bah | 10:42 |
| nixternal | hahaha | 10:42 |
| mdke | that's libel, my hair is impeccable | 10:42 |
| nixternal | lol | 10:42 |
