| Rocket2DMn | mdke, i made it :) | 20:55 |
| mdke | Rocket2DMn: awesome, right on time | 20:56 |
| Rocket2DMn | I assume you have something laid out on how you are going to proceed? | 20:57 |
| Rocket2DMn | I'm available to answer questions and whatnot | 20:57 |
| mdke | yeah, I am going to paste from some notes | 20:57 |
| mdke | then you can chip in where you feel the need, and answer some questions | 20:57 |
| Rocket2DMn | ok, do you have your outline online somewhere? | 20:58 |
| mdke | Rocket2DMn: no, but I will paste it, hang on | 20:59 |
| mdke | http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/160187/ <-- a few gaps which i will fill in by hand | 21:00 |
| Rocket2DMn | cool | 21:00 |
| mdke | Rocket2DMn: sorry to have sprung that SoD thing on you without notice, it just occurred to me as a good point to do some publicity :) | 21:36 |
| Rocket2DMn | its ok | 21:36 |
| Rocket2DMn | im finished | 21:36 |
| mdke | great | 21:36 |
| mdke | good job Rocket2DMn, thanks for picking me up on those things | 21:54 |
| mdke | how do you do the whitespace line? | 21:54 |
| Rocket2DMn | no problem, good session mdke | 21:54 |
| Rocket2DMn | just use a space | 21:55 |
| Rocket2DMn | try it out | 21:55 |
| mdke | 21:55 | |
| mdke | doh | 21:55 |
| mdke | thanks :) | 21:56 |
| Rocket2DMn | sure thing | 21:56 |
| Rocket2DMn | now i gtg do laundry :( | 21:56 |
| ds305 | A couple of questions about uploading wiki graphics, if someone can answer. | 22:18 |
| mdke | sure | 22:18 |
| mdke | we can try :) | 22:19 |
| ds305 | Hey, first, I enjoyed your presentation. I couldn't make it live but logged on just before it started and just reviewed it. | 22:19 |
| mdke | great, I'm very pleased you enjoyed it | 22:19 |
| ds305 | I'm on the BT and wiki focus group with Rocket. Last summer I did a major revision of the repositories wiki. | 22:19 |
| mdke | cool, good to have you on board and nice to meet you | 22:20 |
| ds305 | Questions about pic uploads. First, it there a standard naming convention for the uploaded graphics? | 22:20 |
| mdke | no, not currently | 22:20 |
| ds305 | I ended up naming them several ways and felt it was really inefficient. | 22:20 |
| mdke | do you think that it would be helpful? | 22:20 |
| ds305 | Well, as a new wiki editor I had no clue about naming conventions. | 22:21 |
| nhandler | mdke: Are the picture names used in enough places to actually matter? | 22:21 |
| mdke | normally the image is just used once, on a specific page | 22:21 |
| ds305 | As I learned I was revising them a lot and uploaded a bunch before I was satisfied. Apparently you can't replace one that is already posted? | 22:21 |
| mdke | occasionally we have icons that get reused though | 22:21 |
| mdke | ds305: to replace one, you have to delete it and reupload, I think | 22:22 |
| ds305 | I wasn't able to delete. Is that limited to mods or whomever? | 22:22 |
| ds305 | That was one of the things I felt badly about - keep uploading minor variations of the same thing. | 22:22 |
| mdke | hmm | 22:23 |
| ds305 | Of course, now I know enough to get it right the first time. (Well, maybe the second). | 22:23 |
| mdke | do you have a "del" button on the left of the attachments here - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IconsPage?action=AttachFile | 22:24 |
| ds305 | No, just get and view. | 22:24 |
| mdke | ok, I guess it's limited then | 22:24 |
| mdke | that's a bit of a shame | 22:24 |
| ds305 | So it must be limited. | 22:24 |
| mdke | we should look into changing that | 22:24 |
| ds305 | I can understand why just anyone can't delete a graphic, but if you saw the list on the repositories wiki I bet I had version 7 of some of the first ones. ;-) | 22:25 |
| mdke | well, I think it's reasonable to allow anyone to delete them | 22:25 |
| ds305 | Perhaps you can bring it up to whoever decides those things. | 22:26 |
| ds305 | And I promise if I get the power I will delete about 30 uploads. :-) | 22:26 |
| mdke | we can take the decision as a team | 22:26 |
| mdke | the tricky bit is to get the admins of the server to make the change | 22:27 |
| mdke | and to figure out how to do it :) | 22:27 |
| ds305 | Implementation is usually harder than coming up with an idea. | 22:27 |
| ds305 | Thanks for your time. | 22:27 |
| mdke | yeah | 22:27 |
| mdke | thanks for yours! | 22:27 |
