mac_vdjsiegel1: Similar to Bug #406438 > Bug #405426 , Bug #400383 are also not papercuts per-se [not a fix for something that most users consider painful.] , they could just be design suggestions but wouldnt be part of the papercut criteria10:07

djsiegel1mac_v: yes, you are right10:34
djsiegel1except about the separator in the panel10:35
djsiegel1all of these things are painful for me :)10:35
djsiegel1but I don't think they are painful for most10:35
djsiegel1except maybe the separator10:35
djsiegel1which is clearly ugly and using space poorly10:35
mac_vdjsiegel1: ;p the separator also is not a papercut , but *do* remove it10:35
djsiegel1mac_v: you know what, I disagree10:59
mac_vdjsiegel1: that is just a design *flaw*, i'm not sure how it improves/hampers usability?!11:01
djsiegel1these things that don't seem like pains really are11:02
djsiegel1djsiegel1: for example, text in title bars is not centered on the window, it's centered on the window minus the close, minimize, maximize buttons11:03
djsiegel1also, folder icons in Human are off-center11:03
djsiegel1most people would say that these are not pains11:03
mac_vdjsiegel1: BTW, i *never* had the separator , i removed it since i use a vertical panel ;p11:03
djsiegel1but that's why we have a design team (in part), to find pains that people are not conscious of11:03
djsiegel1users can't identify them11:03
djsiegel1they would never report them as a paper cut11:04
djsiegel1and might not agree that they are painful11:04
djsiegel1it's very subtle11:04
djsiegel1sometimes the users can be right11:04
djsiegel1other times, something can be bad for them and they will thing it's not harmful11:04
mac_vdjsiegel1: my reasons mainly , are that this is a very minor aspect , while there are other papercuts that could be part of the 100 , this could be done apart from the papercuts...11:05
mac_vI'm not saying dont remove it ... DO remove it 11:05
djsiegel1yes I know11:06
djsiegel1can you find two new paper cuts, one for r4 and one for r5?11:06
djsiegel1because r4 and r5 lost two11:06
mac_vit's been a few days since i watched papercuts, but will try to get you something 11:06
djsiegel1thanks11:07
mac_vdjsiegel1:  Bug #164298 , Bug #40452512:39
ubot4Launchpad bug 164298 in ubuntu "Print to file should say "Export to PDF" instead of "Print to PDF"" [Wishlist,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/16429812:40
ubot4Launchpad bug 404525 in gnome-power-manager "Laptop power status notification is uninformative" [Wishlist,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/40452512:40
djsiegel1yeah, those are good12:41
djsiegel1mac_v: I think the latter is invalid12:41
djsiegel1mac_v that person does not appear to be using human12:42
mac_vdjsiegel1: that is true , read the title , the notification is not informative12:42
djsiegel1mac_v: I don't understand12:42
djsiegel1it is notifying you of brightness change12:43
mac_vjust shows the brightness , but not the battery power status, this was discussed in ayatana12:43
mac_vmailing list12:43
mac_vScott has partly fixed this problem , work is  alsmot done12:43
mac_valmost*12:43
djsiegel1ok, so, when you unplug, you'd like to see the "You are now running on battery" with info about % charge, time remaining?12:43
mac_vdjsiegel1: yeah , a second bubble about the charge12:44
mac_vand time12:44
djsiegel1have you had any feedback from devs about this?12:44
mac_vyeah12:44
djsiegel1what did they say?12:45
djsiegel1mpt is looking into his spec12:45
mac_vdjsiegel1: this depends on the work on Bug #399492 , upstream has accepted Scott's effort , and waiting for the completed patch12:46
ubot4Launchpad bug 399492 in gnome-power-manager "Feature request : Possible improvements for notifications" [Wishlist,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/39949212:46
djsiegel1mac_v: mpt is now adding to the spec12:46
mac_voh ok...12:46
mac_vdjsiegel1: Bug #394184 , the post-extraction says "Open the destination" , this could be simplified to -> "Show files"12:50
ubot4Launchpad bug 394184 in hundredpapercuts "Simplify the file roller post-extraction dialogue window" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/39418412:50
* mpt waves to mac_v 12:50
mac_vmpt hi :)12:50
djsiegel1mac_v: add the "Export as PDF..." bug to r4, add the unplugged notification to r5 and update appropriate bugs with a link to mpt's spec change, and add the extraction dialog bug to any round with less than ten12:52
djsiegel1all are great finds!12:52
djsiegel1please and thank you12:52
djsiegel1mac_v: actually, I am thinking of invalidating the EoG papercut in r412:53
djsiegel1it's very confusing12:53
mac_vdjsiegel1: i cant add milestones :(12:53
djsiegel1ah, you can't add to milestones?12:53
djsiegel1we need a proper papercutters team next time around12:53
mptmac_v, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NotifyOSD?action=diff&rev2=172&rev1=17012:54
mac_vdjsiegel1: only the concerned devs have the privilages12:54
mac_vmpt: \o/ , also i'v sent a set of the notify-osd icons *vertical* to kwwii 12:55
mptI need to read that g-p-m bug report in more detail, it probably doesn't cover everything people commented on13:10
mptIn Jaunty I specced as few g-p-m changes as possible, because I was told it would soon be replaced by DeviceKit-power and therefore making major changes would be a waste of time.13:11

=== agateau__ is now known as agateau
mac_vmpt: the notify-osd task *needs* to be done , the icons from the Ubuntu notify-osd are labelled different from the gnome notifications , these changes are done in notify-osd15:29
mptmac_v, ah, for battery icons?15:30
mac_vmpt: yeah15:30
mptmac_v, I see, sorry, my mistake15:35
mac_vmpt np... kindly reassign it15:35
mptmac_v, but why are the battery icons any of Notify OSD's business? It's gnome-power-manager sending them, isn't it?15:37
mptand then Notify OSD displays them just like it does for any other icon15:37
mac_vmpt: if the patch is written in gpm then ubuntu will have to maintain a patch over the gnome gpm , but if we patch notify-osd instead , this is easier15:38
mac_vmpt: similar, is already done for wireless notifications15:38
mpthmmmmmm15:39
mptyou have a point there15:39
mptIf Notify OSD uses custom icons for volume, brightness, and wireless, it should for power too15:39
hyperairthere are power notifications?15:39
hyperairi wasn't aware15:40
mac_vmpt: AFAIK all icons are changed in notify-osd , but for sure i know about wireless icons15:40
mac_vhyperair: we are adding power notifications15:40
mac_vhyperair: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NotifyOSD?action=diff&rev2=172&rev1=17015:40
hyperairi see15:40
hyperairi thought it was added sometime back then removed again?15:40
mptmac_v, hyperair, those power notifications come from gnome-power-manager, which has always produced them (well, at least as long as notification-daemon has been part of Gnome)15:43
hyperairhmm i haven't been seeing them recently15:45
mac_vhyperair: they were *blocked* in Ubuntu , since they were considered redundant/uninformative , but now the notifications are being changed16:00
hyperairaha i see16:00
hyperairyeah i did hear something of that sort16:00
