Rocket2DMnhey guys, as part of firewall documentation re-org, I'm gonna move the page on Uncomplicated Firewall01:51
Rocket2DMnshould I name it UFW or Ufw ?01:51
Rocket2DMne.g. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW01:51
Rocket2DMnSame question for the iptables page - probably call it Iptables ?01:52
=== starcraft_ is now known as starcraftman
Rocket2DMnhey DougieRichardson20:19
Rocket2DMncan you try and confirm a bug for me?20:19
DougieRichardsonhey rocket2dmn20:19
DougieRichardsonyes20:19
Rocket2DMnbug 40808320:20
ubot4Launchpad bug 408083 in ubuntu-docs "Community Docs surge protection is too restrictive" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/40808320:20
DougieRichardsonjust looking20:20
Rocket2DMnthanks20:21
DougieRichardsonRefreshed it five times in quick succession and haven't tripped it off - how about you?20:22
Rocket2DMnreally? I tripped it fairly easily20:22
Rocket2DMna friend of mine on the beginners team was able to reproduce it, too20:22
Rocket2DMni havent been able to view all icons on the IconsPage for probably a year20:23
DougieRichardsonMaybe I'm missing something20:23
Rocket2DMnnah, i dont think so, its supposed to be fairly straightforward to reproduce20:24
Rocket2DMntry clearing your cache and refreshing20:24
DougieRichardsonOK20:24
DougieRichardsonNo warnings but the images aren't displayed, only their alt text.20:26
Rocket2DMnyeah, right click and View Image on one of them20:26
Rocket2DMnone that doesnt show that is20:26
technomenschintermittent displaying the icons for me as well.  FF, Chrome, IE 8.  never been able to track down cause20:27
Rocket2DMnhey Marc20:28
technomenschyo20:28
Rocket2DMnyouve experienced this problem then, too?20:28
DougieRichardsonhey Marc20:28
technomensch::nod::  it was especially annoying when I was doing the revamp on /Teams20:28
DougieRichardsonbrb - officer commanding household calling20:28
Rocket2DMnwell, glad i'm not the only one20:29
technomenschdittp20:29
Rocket2DMnanother quirk I've been experiencing for quite some time is that Tables don't always display all borders20:29
technomenschayup20:29
technomenschseeing that as well20:29
Rocket2DMnHmm, not sure if that problem is related20:30
Rocket2DMnive tried everything to fix it, but nothing has worked20:30
Rocket2DMni just figured my FF profile was whacked20:30
technomenschnope20:30
technomenschvery intermittent20:30
technomenschand rando20:30
technomenschhappens in all 3 browsers20:30
Rocket2DMnfor me its pretty regular that borders dont show20:31
Rocket2DMnits actually predictable for me20:31
Rocket2DMnfor instance, the big table on this page - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BeginnersTeam/FocusGroups/Padawan20:31
Rocket2DMnalways missing the same parts of the borders20:31
technomenschI see just one piece of border missing20:32
technomenschok20:32
technomenschnow I'm seeing more20:32
technomenschin chrome under quiz status20:32
Rocket2DMnyeah, and another large one missing between Bodsda and jamesrfla rows20:33
technomenschnope, but missing lower border of gastly under seeking masters20:33
Rocket2DMnhmm, i have that one, but something is messed up20:34
technomenschsdennie, nhandler, nhasian, forestpixie, LeAstrale20:34
technomenschcomplete line is missing under jamesfla20:34
technomenschand above ajmorris20:34
technomenschI mean paultag20:35
Rocket2DMni see differently, but its the same problem20:35
technomenschin ie, only line issues are in the last column20:35
technomenschwho knows what rendering issues it might be FF20:36
Rocket2DMnquite possible20:36
Rocket2DMnwell if somebody could confirm that bug i posted, that would be great20:36
Rocket2DMnit could potentially be a Wishlist item, but i actually see it as a true bug b/c it prevents you from using the system20:37
Rocket2DMnDougieRichardson, i'm working with bodhi.zazen on re-org of firewall related pages20:40
Rocket2DMnI'm going to move this page - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Uncomplicated_Firewall_ufw20:40
Rocket2DMnI'm thinking of putting it at UFW - does that seem right to you?20:40
Rocket2DMnrather than "ufw" or "Ufw"20:41
Rocket2DMnI made a Gufw page a bit ago - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Gufw20:41
DougieRichardsonrocket2dmn: OK bodhi mentioned something about it20:51
DougieRichardsonif people know it as ufw I can't see a problem with that. I prefer uppercase for acronyms.20:52
DougieRichardsonoh ffs she's shouting me again - brb20:52
Rocket2DMnYeah I prefer uppercase, too.  In the case of ufw it is almost always referred to in lowercase, but that isn't good wiki syntax20:53
Rocket2DMnGufw makes sense though b/c that is what it is actually called20:54
popeyevening all20:54
Rocket2DMnI'll stick with UFW for the ufw page then, I already have a redirect set from there, but I'll swap it with the existing page later20:54
Rocket2DMnhi popey20:54
starcraftmanRocket2DMn Ya, I think I see that icon bug your talking about, tables too. Didn't notice that before.20:54
starcraftmanlo' popey20:55
Rocket2DMnyeah starcraftman , the image problem is a much bigger issue than the table one, that is just a minor rendering defect that i can look over.  but missing images causes problems20:55
starcraftmanRocket2DMn: Right, I can definitely see how the image problem could really cripple some pages. Meetings soon, who's gonna be controlling the bot?20:59
Rocket2DMnthat's a good questions starcraftman , i have no idea.  I don't think mdke_ is here21:00
mdke_just arrived21:01

* popey is off to get an early night.. nn DOCrs22:54
mdkeyou mean transfer to popey222:54
mdkeShane_Fagan: shoot22:54
Rocket2DMnmdke, question for you22:55
popey:)22:55
Rocket2DMnmdke, do we still want to keep existing "homepages" on h.u.c?  Or should they be deleted?22:55
Shane_FaganOk well im just really crap at docbook and im trying to fix up the video editing software because it sucks and its out of date22:55
mdkeRocket2DMn: tricky one22:56
Rocket2DMni know.  Last summer you said we could leave them for the time being22:56
mdkeRocket2DMn: I'm not 100% sure - I guess leaving them is the easiest22:57
Rocket2DMnYeah, a bit messy sometimes though22:57
mdkeor moving them to the team wiki and putting a redirect?22:57
Rocket2DMnwe don't need a final decision or anything right now22:57
Rocket2DMnI'm not a fan of redirecting homepages22:57
mdkeShane_Fagan: ok, what issues have you had?22:57
Shane_Faganmdke: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ScreenCasts/VideoEditing I just want to make a good page for the system docs22:58
Rocket2DMnmost are just old and dont have a matching entry on w.u.c.  we can leave them for now i guess.  i can ask in another year, or you can let me know if you change your mind22:58
Rocket2DMncheers22:58
mdkeheh22:59
mdkeRocket2DMn: I'm more than open to ideas22:59
Rocket2DMnill see what i can come up with mdke , ill get back to you on this subject22:59
mdke:)22:59
mdkeShane_Fagan: ok22:59
Shane_Faganmdke: Then look at the page in the system docs for the same thing https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/musicvideophotos/C/video-editing.html23:00
mdkeok23:01
Shane_FaganIts all on bug #37824823:03
ubot4Launchpad bug 378248 in ubuntu-docs "Video editing docs need work" [Undecided,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/37824823:03
Shane_FaganThe thing is that there are 2 main video editors pitivi and kino and they both do similar things the only difference is that kino has to convert the files that the user is editing to .dv files23:04
Shane_FaganOh and kdenlive23:06
mdkeShane_Fagan: I'll review your amended patch asap but from memory the docbook in the previous version was fine23:07
Shane_Faganit was only one line and it didnt really explain the software23:09
* mdke nods23:09
Shane_Faganmdke: I need to submit a better patch than the one attached there23:09
mdkeShane_Fagan: ok - it's quite a difficult subject I agree, because it's not obvious how to differentiate between the different editors23:12
mdkeI wonder if we should just be recommended the best one, and seek to document that more fully, hopefully referring to its existing documentation23:12
Shane_Faganmdke: well id recommend pitivi myself after using that for a while23:13
mdkethat's the recommended gnome app, isn't it?23:14
Shane_FaganYep23:14
mdkesounds good23:15
mdkedoes it have online documentation that could be linked to?23:15
Shane_FaganHmmm ill look23:15
mdkeI guess it has system documentation too, but it's difficult to link to that because it isn't installed by default23:15
Shane_FaganGot it http://www.pitivi.org/wiki/Manual23:16
Shane_FaganIts a little outdated23:16
mdkeok23:21
Shane_Faganmdke: Ill try whip something up tomorrow, ill attach it to the bug and ping you or dougie23:21
mdkestill better than nothing, I suspect23:21
mdkeShane_Fagan: good plan, thanks23:21
mdkeif you attach it to the bug, it'll get reviewed23:21
Shane_Faganyep I know the routine23:21
mdkecool, thanks23:22
mdkebedtime for me23:22
Shane_Fagannn23:23
