[15:06] to fix a bug automatically what is the syntax in the bzr commit [15:06] is it fixes bug # or what ? [15:48] bzr commit --fixes lp:NNNNN [18:08] mdke: any low hanging fruit not being worked on? [19:13] jjesse: as with what jpds said except it's --fixes=lp:NNNN [19:14] Shane_Fagan: I'm not sure, to be honest. The best I can suggest is to scour the bug reports :) [19:15] mdke: Ah I looked but didnt find any that arent being looked at. So I just thought id ask [19:16] Shane_Fagan: there might be some more substantial things to get your teeth into; I know that we need better bluetooth documentation, if you happen to be a bluetooth guru :) alternatively perhaps you could help out with Kelvin's newtoubuntu plans [19:18] * bencrisford__ would like some low hanging fruit too mdke :) [19:18] mdke: the newtoubuntu stuff sounds right up my alley [19:19] KelvinGardiner: Is there anything I can help you with the newtoubuntu docs? [19:19] awesome [19:19] Shane_Fagan: if he isn't around on irc, maybe send an email [19:19] Ah whats the address? [19:20] I'm here [19:20] Oh good [19:20] the mailing list is at ubuntu-doc@lists.ubuntu.com [19:20] but i see you dont need it now :) [19:20] Shane_Fagan: I've put a draft spec at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KelvinGardiner/NewToUbuntuDocs (I was just getting the address) [19:21] KelvinGardiner: I'll help out too if you like [19:22] Have a look a let me know what you would like to do. [19:22] KelvinGardiner: Thanks ill have a look [19:22] bencrisford__: cool [19:22] so its a section of the system docs for karmic [19:22] ? [19:23] bencrisford__: Yes [19:23] bencrisford__: Yes. Its all the docs for new users. Some other section of the system docs may need expanding as well. [19:23] ah, cool [19:25] KelvinGardiner: How does a section about emulation software sound to you? [19:25] because I could do that [19:25] One thing I'd like to sort out is the structure of the moving from windows / os x to Ubuntu pages. I think a FAQ will be best. [19:25] bencrisford__: wine? [19:25] KelvinGardiner: I could do 6.1 Commons Applications+ [19:26] KelvinGardiner: For using windows applications in ubuntu [19:26] bencrisford__: Thats wine [19:26] i know [19:26] thats what im explaining :) [19:26] lol, im confused :P [19:26] Shane_Fagan: ok. Can you add yourself on the wiki page. [19:27] KelvinGardiner: Sure will do [19:27] KelvinGardiner: Want me to have a look at the moving from windows sections? [19:27] bencrisford__: A short page on wine would be good. [19:27] i could put about wine in there [19:27] as a sub-section [19:28] bencrisford__: I'd like to get a list of issues for the moving from windows pages (looking a the forum etc) before starting it. Put if you have any ideas add them to the wiki. [19:28] ok [19:28] I think wine is likely to be for more advanced users [19:29] bencrisford__: I've had a quick chat with the beginners team about the winodws page and want to talk to them again. [19:29] it's not so much for people who are new to Ubuntu [19:29] ok [19:29] well if there is any section you want me to help with, im always on here [19:31] bencrisford__: ok, keep an eye on the mailing list. I'll be sending updates to it. [19:31] olk [19:31] ok* [19:34] KelvinGardiner: I may need some help with the mac OS equivalents of the programs [19:36] Shane_Fagan: ok, I have a macbook, but I've not used os x for some time. I can boot it and check the names of the apps. [19:37] KelvinGardiner: Cool [19:46] KelvinGardiner: Ill make a table with columns for ubuntu windows and mac. Ill list the programs and their equivalents on each platform. I have one question though. Should I include Banshee in the list or should I just mention the default programs? [19:48] Shane_Fagan: I think it best just include default apps. But, I think there is session on including Banshee as the default music player at the Karmic UDS. [19:49] Id be a +1 for that but I cant go :( [19:49] Ok its in progress I might have some of it done by tomorrow [19:51] Shane_Fagan: Are you writing it in docbook? If so I've set up a bzr branch on lp you can push to. [19:52] KelvinGardiner: Yep, ill research it first and then write it up in docbook. Whats the lp branch ? [19:53] Shane_Fagan: https://code.launchpad.net/~kelvingardiner/+junk/newtoubuntu [19:54] Shane_Fagan: I've not hosted a branch on lp before. I think I have to approve the push. If it doesn't work let me know. [19:54] KelvinGardiner: Ok ill get back to you when I have something [19:55] ok, thanks for helping out. [19:57] KelvinGardiner: if the branch is owned by you, which it is in that case, then only you can push to it [19:58] mdke: Can I not subscribe someone else to it? [19:59] KelvinGardiner: Even if you subscribe to it you cant upload to it unless you own it [19:59] KelvinGardiner: in launchpad subscribe just means that they get emails with the changes that are made, not a right to push to it [19:59] KelvinGardiner: you could change the ownership of it to ~ubuntu-doc, but see my email of today about that [20:01] mdke: What about if I get patches and apply them to my branch. Is this a better solution? [20:02] That would work [20:02] KelvinGardiner: that would probably work better because then you can review the patches, and you will be a kind of gatekeeper for contributions to the work [20:02] then, all we need to do is to review the quality of the end product [20:03] mdke: ok, sounds sensible, thanks. === tim__sharitt is now known as tim_sharitt
