| mdke | newz2000: every change should go through the bzr branch so I will fix it there, but best thing is to file bugs so they don't get lost | 11:00 |
|---|---|---|
| qense | hello | 13:35 |
| ryanakca | newz2000: could you take a look at bug 297712 please? | 18:30 |
| ubot3 | Malone bug 297712 in kubuntu-website "Download web page does not have links to jigdo downloads" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/297712 | 18:30 |
| jarlen | qense: you around? | 19:44 |
| qense | yes | 19:44 |
| jarlen | how is ubuntu wanted going? | 19:45 |
| qense | I'm almost finished with the admin queue | 19:45 |
| jarlen | the entire admin part? | 19:45 |
| qense | no, just the editing | 19:45 |
| qense | no removal | 19:45 |
| qense | just status changing and editng | 19:45 |
| jarlen | ok, I'm trying to convince my pal that it's a project worth helping out on | 19:46 |
| jarlen | he needs some programming to spend his time on :P | 19:46 |
| qense | well, there is still no searching | 19:46 |
| qense | if someone else would want to do the skill pages, that would be fine too. Then I could have a look at the theme from madrh | 19:47 |
| jarlen | so, it's like a search function, and the profiles you still need done? | 19:48 |
| qense | well, next to the skill overview pages of tasks(not profiles, the offered part won't be there yet) yes | 19:48 |
| qense | although everything can still use a lot of polishing and isn't that advanced | 19:49 |
| qense | but with these two things we could start testing to see what actual real world users think of it | 19:49 |
| jarlen | so more like the wanted "posters" themselves? | 19:49 |
| qense | currently it's indeed jsut the help needed part | 19:50 |
| jarlen | any idea how it's going with mads' design? | 19:51 |
| jarlen | I remember he contacted me, and I gave him a few pointers, never heard how it worked out though | 19:52 |
| qense | well, hugh brant also gave some suggestions. I asked him if he could use them, but he didn't really seem to get it, maybe I should have epxlained better what I wanted. | 19:52 |
| qense | I think I'll have a look at the work he already did and the changes proposed by Hugh Brant and merge them together in the final drupal theme. | 19:53 |
| qense | btw, you did know that the working branch is at lp:~qense/ubuntu-wanted/qevel ? | 19:53 |
| qense | only when a feature is done I upload it to the main one | 19:54 |
| jarlen | no, I don't really look that much into it, just looked a bit that the stuff mads sent over | 19:54 |
| qense | Did he also send the .zip archive to you? | 19:54 |
| jarlen | is it normal that drupal designs is just randomly scathered all over the html and the design files, instead of being kept in one place? | 19:55 |
| jarlen | it really seemed like a mess | 19:55 |
| jarlen | well, he hooked me up with some links to some of the stuff being worked at, at that time | 19:55 |
| jarlen | but it's been a while, didn't really follow up on it | 19:55 |
| qense | It's indeed a mess, although the brainstorm theme isn't that clean either. | 19:55 |
| jarlen | could be it's just a drupal mess | 19:56 |
| jarlen | im glad I don't have to work that much with it :P | 19:56 |
| qense | Everything also needs some polishing. Especially the interface can be a mess. When you create a new task, all skills are listed under each other. There are just three skills in the testing version, but what if more will be used? | 19:57 |
| qense | There is also no interface to manage the skills. | 19:58 |
| jarlen | I've made an admin interface for a project at work, I added a "new" button, to some of the drop down menus | 19:58 |
| jarlen | that "new" selection, would the call a javascript, where you could put in the new options' | 19:58 |
| jarlen | ... but that could prove real messy in the long run for a page being used by a lot of different peopple | 19:59 |
| jarlen | -p | 19:59 |
| qense | I don't think it would be a good idea to let everyone add skills. The approval of tasks is manually done, but everyone can add. | 19:59 |
| qense | It would be really helpful if someone else would also code a bit. That way you'd have someone to discuss things with and who can tell you if he/she thinks that certain things can be done better or are just wrong. | 19:59 |
| qense | It would also force me to explain my thoughts clearly. ;) | 20:00 |
| qense | So if your friend does want to help, he would be very welcome. | 20:01 |
| jarlen | thought so :-9 | 20:02 |
| jarlen | I might be up for some sparring if needed, but I dunno about the coding itself | 20:03 |
| jarlen | I have a lot of projects on my own already that I can't even get myself started on :P | 20:03 |
| qense | nicolas wrote a mvc-like module | 20:03 |
| qense | it's based a lot on brainstorm things | 20:03 |
| qense | Drupal has got some nice hooks, forms are very easy to create, but overall I find at least drupal 5 not that consistent | 20:04 |
| jarlen | never looked much at drupal | 20:04 |
| jarlen | but really seemed like a mess, from the short look I took for Mads | 20:05 |
| qense | the brainstorm theme is the main cause for that mess | 20:05 |
| jarlen | so it's the website team's fault? | 20:05 |
| jarlen | that's not really reassuring :P | 20:05 |
| qense | I don't know a lot about drupal 6 or 7, but since drupal 5 is the only approved version by canonical we have to use it | 20:05 |
| qense | I'm not sure who wrote the theme, but there is only one developer for brainstorm | 20:06 |
| jarlen | can't you get a clean version, without their mess? | 20:06 |
| qense | I'm not sure | 20:06 |
| jarlen | it's easier to make a mess if you got noone stopping you | 20:06 |
| qense | the problem is that I want to spend time on giving the website more or at least some features rather than cleaning up the code of a theme that is working | 20:07 |
| qense | although you do get some weird glitches sometimes | 20:07 |
| qense | If someone who isn't afraid of PHP and Drupal and knows how to theme would do that, I'd be very happy. | 20:10 |
| jarlen | heh, don't think I can help you with that, designers seems hard to come by :) | 20:10 |
| qense | this is the work mads did: https://dl-web.getdropbox.com/get/Photos/ubuntu-wanted-theme.png?w=272a7347 | 20:12 |
| jarlen | an 404 error? that's not what I told him to :P | 20:12 |
| qense | do you get a 404? | 20:12 |
| jarlen | yeh | 20:13 |
| qense | probably a disguised 403 | 20:13 |
| jarlen | bugged server? | 20:14 |
| qense | no | 20:15 |
| qense | in a sec | 20:15 |
| qense | http://www.getdropbox.com/gallery/312625/1/Ubuntu%20Wanted?h=a73d47 | 20:15 |
| qense | this should do the trick | 20:15 |
| jarlen | well, that's pretty much what he showed me he wanted to do, I guess :) | 20:17 |
| qense | another thing that needs to be done! a menu block | 20:19 |
| qense | Currently the biggest problem is editing the skills linking table | 20:25 |
| qense | I'm not sure how to check if the entries already exist or should be created, especially how to do that with as less queries as possible. | 20:25 |
| qense | I think that I already query a bit too much sometimes. | 20:26 |
| qense | well, I'm off | 20:48 |
| qense | bye! | 20:48 |
| jarlen | Im trying to create an OpenSSH-key using the guide here: https://help.launchpad.net/YourAccount/CreatingAnSSHKeyPair but I only get to 0 byte files | 21:19 |
| jarlen | anyone who experienced something like that? | 21:20 |
| jarlen | or got a solution? | 21:26 |
| jarlen | all im doing is the "ssh-keygen -t rsa" command, and then fill out as requested | 21:27 |
