[03:48] <marnanel> I have a program I've been building in a private branch and I just created a project for it.  The docs say I can do "bzr push lp:~marnanel/blog-wrangler/trunk" but that fails with " http does not support mkdir()".  Did I do something wrong?
[03:56] <RAOF> marnanel: You probably need to tell bzr about your launchpad username.  Before you do that, bzr will default to http:// redirection (which is read-only) rather than bzr+ssh://
[03:56] <RAOF> To do this, you'd run "bzr launchpad-login <lpnick>"
[03:58] <marnanel> RAOF: Oh, lovely. *tries it*
[03:59] <marnanel> hm, I don't appear to have that command. But I will try using bzr+ssh:// instead of http://...
[04:07] <RAOF> Hm.  I thought anyone for whom the lp: redirection worked should have launchpad-login.
[04:10] <marnanel> Yay, bzr+ssh:// worked.
[04:10] <marnanel> Thank you for your help.

[08:05] <mdke> is there any plan to have commits to Launchpad branches which are registered under a product series automatically mark bugs with a certain syntax in the commit message as fix committed? A bit like with the Ubuntu uploads?
[08:06] <RAOF> mdke: I'm pretty sure that's already implemented, but I'm not sure about the actual syntax - it may be Fixes: #lpbug or Closes: #lpbug, or something similar.
[08:08] <mdke> ah, that would be neat
[08:11] <mdke> RAOF: I can't find anything in the help wiki at the moment
[08:11] <RAOF> Hm.  Many of the LP/bzr guys will be in London right now for a sprint, and as such not really up now :)

[11:39] <aVirulence> can someone help me out with setting up translations for my  project?
[11:40] <intellectronica> danilos or carlos should be able to help you
[11:42] <aVirulence> see, the problem is the following, I've uploaded a .pot file, but the message remains that we're waiting for review
[11:43] <carlos> aVirulence: I will do a new queue review today, so it should be approved later today
[11:43] <danilos> aVirulence: we do manual approvals (for reasons stated on https://help.launchpad.net/TranslationsImportPolicy)
[11:45] <aVirulence> thanks, I was wondering if I should give myself some rights in order to approve it or that I should wait until someone approved it for me. However, since I uploaded it last Tuesday, I thought I should ask.. ;-) 
[11:46] <aVirulence> oh another, thing, since I uploaded the *.pot file, there have been some changes.. I tried to delete the *.pot file I uploaded before and add a newer version, but it gives me "There are 2 errors"
[11:57] <aVirulence> carlos or danilos, any thoughts on that?
[11:58] <danilos> aVirulence: you should be able to just re-upload the file, no need to delete the old one (it may even cause problems if the same file names are used)
[12:00] <aVirulence> danilos, well, the thing is, another contributor also uploaded messages.pot but he did it with (probably) the right directory po/messages.pot that's why I wanted to remove it
[12:05] <carlos> aVirulence: I will handle it. is the content the same?
[12:05] <aVirulence> carlos, perhaps his messages.pot file is a bit more recent
[12:05] <carlos> ok, I will use latest one then
[12:06] <aVirulence> thanks carlos

[12:16] <nelius> hi folks
[12:16] <nelius> i registered my project last week at launchpad.
[12:17] <nelius> how long does it take, till a trunk from subversion gets imported?
[12:17] <nelius> i also uploaded my first po file, how long does it take, till i can start translations?
[12:19] <aVirulence> nelius, I just had the same question, today's another import day
[12:20] <aVirulence> so, later today
[12:24] <nelius> ok, tnkx
[13:03] <carlos> aVirulence: hmm, I don't see anything pending to approve for any project. Which project is the one where you uploaded files to?
[13:04] <aVirulence> LottaNZB
[13:07] <carlos> aVirulence: approved
[13:07] <aVirulence> carlos, thanks a lot :)
[13:15] <aVirulence> carlos, I just uploaded the latest version. I thought that later additions could be uploaded without first needing approval
[13:16] <carlos> aVirulence: that's true, but is not instantaneous
[13:16] <carlos> it would take between 5 and 30 minutes to be imported
[13:17] <aVirulence> ah, thanks again, btw, my fellow contributor uploaded the file with a path po/messages.pot, do you know how to do that?
[13:17] <carlos> aVirulence: he uploaded a tarball
[13:17] <aVirulence> ah
[13:17] <aVirulence> thanks

[16:58] <afflux> how can I mark the translation of my project in rosetta as "synced"?

[17:02] <carlos> afflux: which project are we talking about? I could tell you the direct URLs

[17:04] <afflux> ah, okay
[17:04] <afflux> carlos: will rosetta choose the new "suggestions" from the uploaded POs as the used ones, when the previously selected in rosetta differ?
[17:04] <afflux> or will they be just added as new suggestions?
[17:06] <carlos> afflux: if they differ from what we had imported first, they will appear as suggestions
[17:06] <afflux> okay, thank you

[19:13] <philn> hi
[19:39] <cyberix> Launchpad allows me to publish my bzr branch for a project even, when the project admins wouldn't want me to do that?C[C[C[C[C[C[C[C
[19:47] <intellectronica> cyberix: sure, that's the cool thing about launchpad code hosting! and why wouldn't the project admins want you to do that? all projects on launchpad are free software, and contributions are always welcome...
[19:48] <cyberix> intellectronica: What, if the project has not been registered?
[19:48] <cyberix> I would not want to admin it as it is not my project
[19:51] <intellectronica> cyberix: what's the project? sometimes we import projects ourselves and then offer them to the real project admins if they want to take over
[19:51] <cyberix> Quite indie atm
[19:51] <intellectronica> cyberix: you could do this yourself, but you probably shouldn't publish your branch as the main branch, but rather import the project's official branch, and then add your own branch for any changes you want to make
[19:51] <cyberix> But I was asking about the general philosophy
[19:52] <intellectronica> cyberix: the philosophy is that this is all free software, and we want to make it as easy as possible for simple to contribute
[19:53] <intellectronica> cyberix: anyway, which project is it? is it hosted elsewhere? you can import CVS and Subversion branches automatically, and you can create 'bug watches' which import the status of bugs from other bug trackers
[19:57] <cyberix> Can I register bzr branches that are not mine?
[20:00] <intellectronica> cyberix: you can import them, but if they are really someone else's, it would be nice to offer them to take over if and when they want to. don't forget that it's free software, you have the right to copy and modify and do whatever you want with the sources as long as you comply with the license
[20:01] <nelius> intellectronica: someone told me today is an "import day"...
[20:02] <nelius> is there any chance to get our project code imported today?
[20:03] <intellectronica> nelius: i'm not really sure what that means, and what sort of import you are expecting. whom did you talk to?
[20:03] <nelius> i just was asking this morning in this channel, if someone knows when svn branches get imorted / or how long it takes.
[20:04] <nelius> the project is tine20, an egroupware fork

[23:14] <jamesh_> ffm: I guess we could always switch to base-64 bug numbers -- that'd shorten them a bit
[23:15] <ffm> jamesh_: how about base36?
[23:15] <jamesh_> ffm: base64 would cut the length by ~ 45%.  Base36 would be just 35%
[23:18] <soren> jamesh_: So 0-9a-z and then what for the remaining ones?
[23:18] <ffm> soren: A-Z.
[23:18] <ffm> soren: and !-*
[23:18] <jamesh> soren: probably just the standard characters used by base64
[23:18] <soren> See, that's where it gets icky :)
[23:19] <soren> jamesh: Um... Good thinking :)
[23:20] <mpt> But we'd have to have some way of avoiding a clash with the bug nicknamespace
[23:20] <jamesh> '+' and '/'
[23:20] <jamesh> mpt: we could base-64 encode the nicknames too
[23:20] <soren> Hah!
[23:21] <jamesh> and require that nicknames contain more bits than the largest bug number
[23:21] <mpt> How would that avoid the clash?
[23:21] <mpt> oh, ok
[23:21] <mpt> So we'd need to decide on a largest bug number
[23:21] <mpt> I propose 640
[23:21] <soren> Is that base64 or base10?
[23:21] <mpt> 640 bugs should be enough for anyone
