mdke_nixternal: you've deleted scripts/ and libs/ in the kubuntu-docs branch?20:08
mdke_nixternal: that makes the branch structure different to the other projects, isn't that something that is worth discussing? Obviously I can see the reasoning for starting fresh on some docs, but structural changes should probably be universal across our branches20:09
j1mcmdke_: the doc structure is not similar in xubuntu, but that was not of my doing20:10
mdke_j1mc: it looks like someone played around with where the directories are instead of fixing the paths, but the libs/ and scripts/ directories still exist20:12
j1mcmdke_: do you mean in xubuntu docs, or in kubuntu docs?20:13
mdke_in xubuntu-docs20:14
mdke_but the various branches are diverging a bit more than I'd like :(20:14
j1mcmdke_: i'm actually going to be rebasing off of ubuntu docs for this release20:15
j1mcusing docbook.20:15
nixternalmdke_: I can s/customization/libs/ if it is that important20:15
mdke_cool. I'm happy to help with any issues you encounter with the toolchain if you hit any20:15
nixternalscripts is still there20:15
mdke_nixternal: hmm.20:16
mdke_nixternal: oh, I see, you removed things and then readded them. Yes, I think that consistent naming is important20:16
nixternalright20:16
nixternalok, that is no prob...easy enough...heading out, but I will fix that when I get back20:16
mdke_thanks20:16
nixternalnp20:16
mdke_I've upgraded the branch on launchpad just now20:17
nixternalwe deleted all the old docs...starting fresh :)20:17
nixternalthe old ones were so out of date, that updating would take more time than rewriting20:17
mdke_hopefully that won't cause any issues20:17
nixternalno, I hope to have a very good base done before the end of the year so it can start getting translated20:17
nixternaland remove all of the templates out of LP since they are a mess20:18
j1mci think the translation team is going to open things up for translation around alpha 320:18
nixternalok, heading out...bbiab20:19
j1mcand i think the translation coordinators are going to "block" (?) the xubuntu and kubuntu docs from translation for karmic for the time being.  david p. and adi r. could explain a bit better.20:21
=== j1mc_ is now known as j1mc
j1mcmy connection dropped, so i likely missed anything either of you may have said over the past minute or two20:22
shaunmhey, look, it's j1mc and nixternal at the same time20:23
nixternalmdke_: changes reverted to match :)20:24
nixternalya, but I am leaving for real now, before the SO kicks my arse :)20:24
shaunmhah20:24
j1mcshaunm: howdy20:25
shaunmhey20:25
shaunmhow's the first weekend in march looking for you?20:25
j1mcshaunm: milo helped me w/ some basic mallard docs at UDS20:25
shaunmgood.  milo's good people20:26
j1mche helped me with the linking syntax. i was trying to link from a parent page to a child page, but doing it the other way around is what makes it work.20:27
mdke_j1mc: I suspect if they block the translations it's because the translators' work wasn't included in the release for karmic. Having said that, it's not too late to get them into -updates20:28
mdke_hey shaunm20:28
shaunmhi mdke_20:29
j1mcmdke_: yes, that sounds about right.20:29
j1mcmdke_: they have figured out a better way of handling the xubuntu translations.  david planella (sp?) is going to write up the process.20:30
mdke_ok, I'll wait to read that, as anything that will improve xubuntu-docs translations should also be applicable to ubuntu-docs20:32
mdke_and the others20:32
j1mci think it was mostly a different way of handling xubuntu docs because ours is in universe.20:34
j1mc... so what they proposed was mainly to make that a bit easier20:34
mdke_well, although xubuntu-docs is in universe, it's still present in Rosetta (perhaps as an exception to the usual rule that universe packages aren't translatable through rosetta)20:36
mdke_let's see what they come up with20:39
shaunmj1mc: I was talking to kevin harriss about putting something together in chicago20:44
j1mcshaunm: do you mean a doc-event?20:45
shaunmj1mc: yeah20:47
j1mcthat would certainly be convenient for me20:48
shaunmI figured chicago would be easier for everybody20:48
shaunmwell, everybody but me :)20:48
j1mc:)20:48
j1mcshaunm: let me know if you'd like any help w/ preparing anything20:51
nixternalshaunm: I will talk to Kevin some more and get him to host a doc event at his place...it is a perfect spot for working22:59
nixternalhe owes me a beer anyways so I will try and catch up with him right after thanksgiving23:00
