| mdke | mpt_: seems one can approve these things oneself | 01:01 |
|---|---|---|
| mpt_ | mdke, I couldn't because as far as Launchpad knows I'm not involved :-) | 01:02 |
| mdke | hmm | 01:02 |
| mdke | silly launchpad! | 01:02 |
| mdke | mpt: so what do you have in mind in terms of presentation? | 01:02 |
| mpt | hmmmmm | 01:06 |
| mpt | two narrow columns | 01:06 |
| mpt | I have no basis at all for saying this, but I feel that topics would be clicked more often if on the right | 01:07 |
| mpt | and that would also be better flow for a sentence of instructions at the top left | 01:08 |
| mdke | you might be right. I noticed the other day that our mockup is staggeringly similar to the Windows XP help center | 01:08 |
| mpt | it is? | 01:08 |
| mpt | I thought theirs was horridly large and crowded | 01:08 |
| mdke | well, the layout is basically the same | 01:08 |
| mdke | topics down the left, frequently asked questions and other resources in the body | 01:08 |
| mpt | huh, so it is | 01:09 |
| mdke | anyway, I really hope Don will helpout with this patch and we can at least have something that works to build from | 01:09 |
| mdke | http://www.wellesley.edu/Computing/WinXP/images/help.jpg | 01:09 |
| mpt | I was just looking at http://www.beansoftware.com/ASP.NET-Tutorials/images/Windows-XP-Help.jpg | 01:10 |
| mpt | I wonder what determines the color scheme | 01:10 |
| mdke | that's with themes turned off | 01:10 |
| mpt | oh, probably Luna vs. Classic | 01:10 |
| mdke | we also need to get people contributing a bit more. Right now the only people spamming the commit list are me and nixternal | 01:13 |
| mpt | Is there now any legal problem with copying stuff from the wiki into the help? | 01:14 |
| mdke | mpt: well, we haven't actually implemented the license change on the wiki yet. But really, it's never stopped us before | 01:15 |
| mpt | :-] | 01:18 |
| bdmurray | howdy | 01:24 |
| mdke | hiya bdmurray | 01:24 |
| bdmurray | I was thinking about maybe having some documentation about filing bugs for Feisty or using apport. | 01:26 |
| mdke | bdmurray: did you see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs already? | 01:26 |
| mdke | you might be able to build on that | 01:27 |
| bdmurray | okay, cool. I think some documentation about apport would help too. | 01:28 |
| mdke | yeah | 01:28 |
| mdke | is there not some on the main wiki that can be pillaged? | 01:28 |
| bdmurray | I wonder how many people actually view the chiark url about filing good bugs | 01:28 |
| mdke | very few, probably. Better to have a few basic points in the text of the wiki page | 01:29 |
| mdke | bdmurray: you seem like an ideal person to have a look at bug 74555, by the way :) Are you able to help chase that up? | 01:29 |
| Ubugtu | Malone bug 74555 in ubuntu-docs "SRU: [Edgy] Upgraded documentation" [Medium,Fix committed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/74555 | 01:29 |
| bdmurray | mdke: heh, good one | 01:29 |
| bdmurray | I can look at it | 01:29 |
| mdke | thanks, it shouldn't be controversial | 01:30 |
| mdke | I have another sru I want to do, so getting that out the way would be helpful | 01:30 |
| Burgwork | bdmurray: how many QA people does Ubuntu have now? | 01:32 |
| bdmurray | 2? we've doubled in size! | 01:32 |
| bdmurray | I'm not clear on the quantity exactly though. | 01:33 |
| bdmurray | Is there any talk of an update to the Ubuntu book? | 01:33 |
| Burgwork | yes, there will be an update | 01:34 |
| Burgwork | I (and others) are working on it right now | 01:34 |
| Burgwork | what about all your shiny interns? | 01:35 |
| bdmurray | those are sfllaw's | 01:36 |
| Burgwork | ah | 01:36 |
| Burgwork | you don't get any? | 01:36 |
| bdmurray | nah, I might put my kids to work though | 01:36 |
| nixternal | I am in Ubuntu-QA, and I know Simon is and Daniel, so there are more than 2 :) | 01:36 |
| Burgwork | nixternal: you ain't paid | 01:36 |
| Burgwork | talking Canonical QA people | 01:37 |
| bdmurray | so I think there are 2 people whose primary duty is bug work / QA | 01:37 |
| bdmurray | Whereas Daniel is mostly dev | 01:37 |
| LaserJock | daniel's job is to look pretty and give hugs | 01:38 |
| bdmurray | and smile | 01:38 |
| LaserJock | I don't know that I've seen such a smiley guy in my life | 01:38 |
| bdmurray | nor I | 01:39 |
| nixternal | ahh | 01:40 |
| mdke | Joker? | 01:45 |
| mdke | even he struggles to keep up with the Holbach though | 01:47 |
