johanHi, which product/project should I report bugs which are related to the javascript menus used in launchpad?12:19
thumperjohan: launchpad12:20
mptTheSheep, I fixed that bug over a week ago, I'm sorry the fix hasn't been applied yet12:20
=== mpt investigates
TheSheepmpt: to me it looks like some elemnts are not closed properly, and ff and opera autoclose them differently12:21
johanhi mpt 12:21
mpthi johan 12:21
johanmpt: you'll love this bug; it should not be possible to select/active a menu entry if there are submenus12:21
TheSheepmpt: it would be much easier to debug if the (x)html validated in general :(12:21
mptmthaddon, when are you next applying cherrypicks? Did you apply any last week?12:21
mthaddonmpt: didn't last week - scheduled to apply Thursday 05:30 UTC12:22
mptTheSheep, it's because Opera 9.2 pays attention to a workaround for a CSS bug in Internet Explorer, without having the same CSS bug as Internet Explorer12:22
TheSheepmpt: * html ?12:22
mptTheSheep, no, the triple-X hack12:22
mptTheSheep, in the meantime, you can use edge.launchpad.net12:23
TheSheepmpt: thank you12:23
mpt(if you receive a URL in an e-mail notification or whatever, change "launchpad.net" to "edge.launchpad.net", e.g. bugs.edge.launchpad.net)12:23
TheSheepmpt: by the way, great job, I find the options much faster with the new layout12:23
mptIt's an improvement, yes12:24
mptjohan, why not?12:25
johanmpt: none of the menus I've used provides a way to both select and have sub menus/options12:25
mptjohan, Mac OS menus used to :-)12:27
mptbut the menus aren't my business, really12:27
johanmpt: how confusing!12:27
mptyes12:27
mptThe nearest analogy I can think of is the "File Bookmark" submenu in Netscape 412:28
johanluckily most of the people that ever used old Mac OS are now dead :-)12:28
=== mpt kicks johan in the pants
mptjohan, meanwhile, we're wondering why you're not jdahlin any more12:28
johanmpt: easy, johan is now available12:29
mptThe previous johan is now dead? :-)12:30
johanmpt: I /ghost him almost everyday :D12:30
johanMaybe, but only if he ever used old Mac OS.12:31
=== mpt feels mortal

gdoubleudo I contact feedback@launchpad.net to request the import of a project from CVS or is there an online form to request this?04:11
=== effie_jayx [n=valles@190.37.174.62] has joined #launchpad
jameshgdoubleu: what is the project?04:27
=== effie_jayx [n=valles@190.37.174.62] has joined #launchpad
gdoubleujamesh: I just registered the pymetrics project on launchpad, which I was wanting to import from the PyMetrics sourceforge project04:30
jameshgdoubleu: okay.  You'll notice that there is a "trunk" link in the Timeline section of the project page04:31
jameshgdoubleu: Launchpad binds imports to a particular release series of the project04:32
jameshgdoubleu: so if you go to the trunk series (https://launchpad.net/pymetrics/trunk), and then click the "Edit source" link in the actions menu you can fill in the details04:32
jameshthat'll trigger a test import.  If the test passes, one of the admins will need to approve the import and make it available.04:33
ajmitchjamesh: and if it comes back as "Do Not Import"?04:36
jameshajmitch: ddaa or mwh would investigate it04:36
jameshto check whether it is a problem with our importer, or if the details were entered wrong04:36
ajmitchdo I need to file a support request to get it looked at?04:36
jameshI don't think so.04:37
=== ajmitch was trying to get the stable f-spot branch imported last week
jameshddaa often emails the person directly.04:37
jameshajmitch: ah.  we don't generally do non-mainline imports, since cscvs doesn't easily handle related branches04:38
ajmitchright04:38
ajmitchso I just need to use bzr-svn directly04:38
jameshso e.g. you wouldn't be able to merge the changes you make on a 0.3 branch forward to one based on the main branch04:39
gdoubleujamesh: so on the import page I've selected CVS, entered ":pserver:anonymous@pymetrics.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/pymetrics" as the Repository, "metrics" as the Module.  What am I supposed to enter for Branch?04:44
jameshgdoubleu: MAIN04:49
gdoubleuand after the import, I will be able to make bzr branches from that, correct?04:53
jameshgdoubleu: yes.04:55
gdoubleujamesh: very cool, thanks for the help04:55
jameshyou'd be able to do "bzr branch lp:pymetrics"04:56
gdoubleuI saw that when you add a branch you can tie it to a bug.  Is this still possible if the project is using an external bug tracker?04:58
jameshgdoubleu: not directly.04:59
jameshgdoubleu: if you have a bug on the Ubuntu package of pymetrics, you could link that to the remote SF bug and to your branch04:59
jameshgdoubleu: you should probably link the project to the SourceForge tracker here: https://launchpad.net/pymetrics/+launchpad05:01

kikothe trip11:01
kikodupe11:01
mptyah, dup11:03
mptYet another example, kiko, of a duplicate that probably wouldn't have been reported if we were using a single project for Launchpad11:03
mptbecause it was reported on Malone, and the original was on Launchpad, so wouldn't have shown up in the list of suggestions11:04
kikompt, I think that's not the only explanation. we could also search for dupes through a project group's projects.11:04
kikothere is a way to fix that without regrouping all our projects.11:04
mptThat would be inappropriate most of the time, I think11:04
mptmaybe it would be appropriate for bzr vs. bzrtools11:04
kikoand for rosetta versus launchpad11:05
mptno, that's the same as the first example11:05
mptduplicate! :-P11:05
kikos/no, //11:05
kikoyes11:05
kikoI just don't see concrete evidence that grouping all our projects into one will help much.11:06
kikoif it just means I need to file dupes every blue moon I am not bothered.11:06
mptthere are other problems11:06
mpte.g. marking spec dependencies11:06
kikospec dependencies?11:06
mptYou can't mark a blueprint in one project as dependent on a blueprint in another project11:07

=== mtaylor [n=mtaylor@dsl231-061-195.sea1.dsl.speakeasy.net] has joined #launchpad
kikompt, the blueprint limitation sounds like a bug.11:07
kikompt, and again, searching through bugs in the project group would solve that.11:08
kikoI mean, you should be able to depend a launchpad spec on a zope spec, hopefully.11:08
mpttrue11:08
mptbut we're just dancing around the lack of bug categorization which large upstreams will need eventually anyway11:09
kikompt, I think projects and project groups provide a good framework for that, whereas it appears you don't. I would rather we believed that what we have right now is good enough until we have good proof of otherwise.11:09
mptMozilla is evidence otherwise11:10
mptso is Gnome11:10
kikoI know that it isn't perfect but I also know that there are things we could do to make things better.11:10
mptand KDE11:10
kikoevidence?11:11
kikoI think that's a bit strong of a word.11:11
mptYes, they have multiple projects which themselves have multiple components11:11
mptsome of them have only two components, but others would be inconvenienced by their bugs being in a single bucket11:12
kikoif you look real close up at the components you'll see that many projects don't actually split them up so well, and they could use tags to categorize them (in particular if we did official bug tags)11:12
kikoso...11:12
kikoI don't think we have /evidence/ that that's the right split11:12
kikojust that there are other systems with more than two-level hierarchies11:12
kikowith which i would agree11:12
mptIf we can make tags fulfil this role, then great11:12
mptbecause that would be simpler than tags+categories11:13
kikompt, help me get official bug tags implemented. the database table is already there!11:13
mptthe who the what now?11:13
mptofficial bug tags?11:13
kikoit's a way for projects to mark bug tags that are blessed11:13
kikowe'd be able to favor them in many ways in the UI11:13
kikoit'd be the bomb11:13
mpt"official tags" is a near-oxymoron11:13

mptwell11:14

kikoI'd still rather they were separate projects11:20

kikompt, what should it rely on?11:25
thumperkiko: oooh kay...11:25
mptkiko, context as retrieved from the DB11:26
flacostekiko: well, the context object could set it11:26
kikothumper, mostly. mpt and you know we could fetch that information from the question itself. but it's a lot easier if the URL stays sane while navigating under questions for launchpad..11:26
mptI think we overestimate the importance of URLs, *a bit*11:26
flacostethat's exactly what I replied in the bug discussion11:26
thumperkiko: I was more thinking of situations where the question moves between projects11:27
flacostewell, not the overestimate part, but that URLs were part of the UI11:27
mptpartly because we (the Launchpad team) got so used to navigating by URL when Launchpad's navigation was much worse than it is now11:27
thumperkiko: and a good base url to hit like /bugs/+nnn11:27
kikompt, it is easier both from the UI perspective and from the implementation perspective in Zope3, mind you.11:27
kikothumper, yeah, I don't disagree that's important11:27
=== thumper off to make coffee
mptkiko, I know it's easy to implement, but I still think the harder way needs implementing, eventually for bugs too ;-)11:28
mpteasier, I mean11:28
kikoI don't think contextless bugs will help us..11:28
mptI'm not saying they should be contextless, but that they should have simple URLs if they have only one context11:29
mpt /questions/123411:29
