Hobbseeerr.  who's responsible for the example content on the live cds and installed system?01:03
tonyyarussoHobbsee: The four people listed on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ExampleContent might be a good-ish start, although the package maintainer is listed as ArtworkTeam, and some of those folks (eg Jane) aren't around anymore, so I'm not sure.01:05
tonyyarussos/four/three/01:05
Hobbseemmm, OK01:06
Hobbseelooks like the speex file wont actually play on a default ubuntu install01:06

pwnguinCellwriter is verra nice. It's even instrumented to tell how long a given character took to recognize09:30
ion_I’d like it to have a hybird input+learning mode. When you draw a letter, it could automatically add what you drew to the letter it came up with (or what you chose to correct it).09:38
pwnguinit does09:38
pwnguinright click09:38
ion_Ok, neat.09:38
pwnguinits also not clear, but training takes more than one entry09:40
ion_How is right click related?09:40
pwnguinas you write, the character gets darker09:40
pwnguinion_: if you right click on a cell, it brings up a correction menu09:40
ion_Yes.09:40
pwnguinif you make a correction, it takes that into consideration09:40
pwnguinthe paper said it discards all the higher strokes it found09:41
ion_Nope, it doesn’t seem to learn when drawing characters in input mode.09:49
pwnguinwell, I'd have to review the code, but there's definately a "train on input" option09:50
havoque is there some boot parameter that should be entered at the gutsy install prompt to force the use of old pata drivers, because with the default install options the new libata subsystem loads, thus treating my hdd as sda instead of hda, and imposes a limit of 15 partitions, i have 20, and want to install gutsy in hda17(/) and hda 18 (/home)?09:51
ion_Ok, it seems to learn when pressing enter. I didn’t test that.09:51
pwnguinhmm09:51
pwnguininteresting09:51
havoquei really don't know where to ask this question09:51
pwnguinion_: that should probably be fixed =/ along with the docking mode09:52
pwnguinfullscreen'd apps should really respect the lower dock09:52
ion_I don’t think it’s wrong to defer the learning until enter is hit.09:52
pwnguinwell, its not exactly obvious ;)09:53
pwnguinare there any handwriting fonts like comic sans without the stigma?09:54
havoqueanyone?09:57
pwnguinhavoque: most developers are at MIT right now sleeping09:58
ion_It also might be a good idea to have an initial set of learned data for each character. Using the train-while-inputting mode, the user’s handwriting style should override any differences quicly.09:59
havoquesorry, didn't realize the huge time difference between here and "there"10:00
pwnguinhavoque: its 6am there. in a few hours or so you might get a bite, or try #ubuntu10:00
pwnguinion_: theres only one developer that I can see, and that makes sense, but its only been out for a month or so.10:01
havoquei'll check back later, thanx10:04
ion_pwnguin: CellWriter really should add a new input row one character sooner, in case the user wants to input a space as the row’s last character.10:26

dholbachHobbsee: all the members of the MC about the meeting time15:54
tobias_pipegeek: I'd wait for the debian merge though. Maybe they have fixed it already.15:54
Hobbseedholbach: ah right15:54
StevenKOh yeah, now I'll tell dholbach his hotel room is flooded15:54
dholbachStevenK: let's talk about it in the corridor15:55
pipegeektobias_: not terribly familiar with the inner workings of ubuntu.... does this mean wait for hardy?15:55
StevenKdholbach: I'm in session right now15:55
norsettoAny core-dev with some time to spare, pls. have a look at bug 136634. It contains an SRU proposal for a package in main. Thank you15:55

dholbachStevenK: yeah, when we meet, not now :)15:55
tobias_pipegeek: Nope. First thing each release is to sync with debian.15:55
norsettoHi dholbach :-)15:55
pipegeekaaah15:55
dholbachheya norsetto15:55
pipegeekfigured that happened before15:55
StevenKMithrandir: http://wedontsleep.org/~steven/modest/15:55
tobias_pipegeek: No, that is happening right now.15:56
StevenKMithrandir: Mostly based on upstreams crappy packaging.15:56
tobias_Once that is done is a great time to send in patches.15:56
dholbachbbl15:56
pipegeekthis confuses me---so, ubuntu releases, but then changes all the package versions by syncing to debian?15:56
* Hobbsee unmoderates stuff on ubuntu-devel again15:56
pipegeekbah, google and the ubuntu wiki will help ease my confusion15:57
pipegeekthanks, tobias_15:57
tobias_pipegeek: gutsy was released. Now everything is synced from debian into hardy. Once that is done the stuff will get stabilized and then released.15:57
pipegeekaaaaah15:57
pipegeekso we *are* talking about hardy15:57
tobias_pipegeek: Yes. Getting changes into a released version seems to be challenging;-)15:57
pipegeekhehe15:57
pipegeekunderstandable15:58
pipegeek'specially when they're potentially security-bug inducing15:58
dholbachsee you later15:58
* tobias_ heads home. See you.16:02
loolMithrandir: Was this on upgrade or a fresh image?16:26
loolMithrandir: Both are supposed to work, but I'm interested in hearing about upgrades going fine; the ~/.osso copy is something we need to be aware of: we're committing to support whatever people end up with therein forever16:27
Riddellbryyce: can you remind me where the bullet proof X script is?16:27

tonyyarussodoko, cjwatson_ : Would you be willing to reconsider Bug #34961?  While I understand that it is more convenient for new home users who want to share a file with their brother or something, convenience for the uninformed user doesn't sound like the usual criteria applied for security-related decisions.  I can confirm that reasonably competent users are not always aware that this is the case, since I just pointed it out to one, and caus18:28
