|---|---|---|
| pleia2 | nigel_nb: thoughts? | 01:43 |
| nigel_nb | mine is an intro to bzr | 01:43 |
| pleia2 | I was hoping we could hash some of this out before our meeting on sunday so we don't bog the meeting down with it | 01:43 |
| nigel_nb | essentially what doctormo wrote on his blog in a asciidoc class form | 01:43 |
| pleia2 | ok, so you talk about "log into bzr, here is how you commit changes.." etc? | 01:44 |
| nigel_nb | yes | 01:44 |
| nigel_nb | wrt to uclp | 01:44 |
| pleia2 | great | 01:45 |
| nigel_nb | I've finished first draft of 5 sections (half) | 01:45 |
| pleia2 | close to finishing that? | 01:45 |
| pleia2 | ok :) | 01:45 |
| nigel_nb | since u want it escalated, I'll drop everything and get the first draft complete today and put it up for review | 01:45 |
| pleia2 | thanks, you rock! | 01:46 |
| pleia2 | now I need to track down BiosElement for asciidoc ;) | 01:46 |
| nigel_nb | :) | 01:46 |
| nigel_nb | you'll be available online? | 01:47 |
| nigel_nb | today i mean | 01:47 |
| pleia2 | for another hour at least, I have a terrible cold that is making me sleep like 14 hours/day | 01:47 |
| nigel_nb | ah :P, join the club | 01:48 |
| nigel_nb | but I'm still kickin though | 01:48 |
| pleia2 | :) | 01:48 |
| nigel_nb | I'll start off then, so I can check with you on language | 01:48 |
| pleia2 | great, thanks | 01:48 |
| nigel_nb | pleia2: tircd shows you replies from people that you're not following? | 01:54 |
| pleia2 | nigel_nb: the client doesn't control that, it's the twitter api | 01:54 |
| nigel_nb | oh ok :) | 01:55 |
| pleia2 | but yeah, it does | 01:56 |
| nigel_nb | have to try it out later then | 01:56 |
| nigel_nb | oh, lp is down | 01:56 |
| pleia2 | doh | 01:56 |
| BiosElement | pleia2: I'm around >.> | 02:06 |
| pleia2 | hey BiosElement :) | 02:06 |
| pleia2 | see my email? | 02:06 |
| BiosElement | Aye. | 02:06 |
| pleia2 | where are we with asciidoc structure? | 02:07 |
| * pleia2 itches to write stuff | 02:07 | |
| BiosElement | Ahh, that's a good question. >.> | 02:07 |
| * pleia2 watches her energy meter drop significantly faster than she had anticipated | 02:11 | |
| pleia2 | stupid cold! | 02:12 |
| nigel_nb_ | pleia2: wanna hit the bed? | 02:12 |
| pleia2 | yeah, I think that's where I'm headed :( | 02:12 |
| pleia2 | I'll be around all weekend though | 02:12 |
| nigel_nb_ | anyway, lp is down | 02:12 |
| nigel_nb_ | anything I do stays in my system | 02:12 |
| nigel_nb_ | asked in #launchpad, it was supposed to be up at 2345 UTC, but some delay. So, there is no guarantee when it will be up | 02:13 |
| * pleia2 nods | 02:13 | |
| * nigel_nb_ just noticed something great :) | 02:14 | |
| nigel_nb_ | I've finished 5/9 sections so far | 02:14 |
| pleia2 | you rock :) | 02:14 |

| nigel_nb | pleia2: if u're still here, I could use some help | 02:30 |
| BiosElement | heh, I love how "William Chambers doesn't use Launchpad" and yet my branches are still listed :P Gotta love half working systems. >.> | 03:49 |
| cprofitt | hey BiosElement long time no see dude... | 03:49 |
| BiosElement | Heya cprofitt | 03:49 |
| BiosElement | Aye, it's been ages. ^_^ | 03:49 |
| cprofitt | you going to have some free time in Mid-December to do some asciidoc with me? | 03:50 |
| BiosElement | Speaking of AsciiDoc, I've got to figureout what's up with that. >.> | 03:50 |
| pleia2 | doctormo! | 13:00 |
| pleia2 | we need to talk about asciidoc soon :) | 13:01 |
| doctormo | Hey pleia2, we do indeed | 13:12 |
| doctormo | nigel is the obviouslly best persont o ask about writing, after myself. | 13:12 |
| doctormo | And I wanted BiosElement to get busy with the scripts for building the resulting documents | 13:13 |
| doctormo | But so far, no work has been done. | 13:13 |
| pleia2 | I spoke with bioselement last night, he said it was in your court | 13:13 |
| doctormo | It is not | 13:13 |
| pleia2 | I am not interested in scripts at this point, I want raw "how to do stuff" | 13:13 |
| pleia2 | waiting for scripts is killing us | 13:14 |
| doctormo | Sure | 13:14 |
| pleia2 | *I* don't even know how this all works :) | 13:14 |
| doctormo | Not these, these aren't important for writing | 13:14 |
| pleia2 | bios was concerned that we don't have asciidoc structure yet | 13:14 |
| pleia2 | so for writing we still just use odt? | 13:14 |
| doctormo | They're just build scripts, and it's with BiosElement, i'm waiting on him to get those into some order. But enough of that. | 13:14 |
| pleia2 | ok, maybe you should touch base with him? | 13:15 |
| doctormo | I think Bios isn't accepting the structure that's there already. He wants to keep reinventing it. | 13:15 |
| doctormo | So it seems I need to. | 13:15 |
| pleia2 | I thought the structure was too complicated? | 13:15 |
| pleia2 | he wanted a simpler one | 13:15 |
| doctormo | It's not possible. | 13:15 |
| pleia2 | ok - so we did decide upon a structure? | 13:16 |
| doctormo | Aye, that would be good. | 13:16 |
| pleia2 | if we could get that documented it'd be great, a "this stuff goes here, this file is for this...." | 13:16 |
| pleia2 | maybe with pretty pictures :) | 13:16 |
| doctormo | Yes, sorry for being absent, it's been busy with me visiting the UK, lots of family and such that need attention. | 13:17 |
| pleia2 | no problem :) | 13:19 |
| pleia2 | I just wanted to get some of this sorted before our meeting | 13:19 |
| doctormo_ | huh my computer cut out | 13:45 |
| doctormo_ | pleia2: if you responded I didn't get it | 13:45 |
| pleia2 | all I said was that I wanted to try and get the asciidoc stuff on track before our meeting | 13:45 |
| pleia2 | so we don't waste time and stall more saying "we need to do this stuff" | 13:45 |
| doctormo_ | pleia2: The problem is that we have say 100 units of work to do, and a capacity to only do about 10 units per week, unless people can be convinced to do more work, there isn't much choice. | 13:46 |
| pleia2 | so should we be telling people to write things in odt until we can sort out the asciidoc situation? | 13:48 |
| pleia2 | I'd help if I could, but I don't even understand the asciidoc format | 13:49 |
| doctormo_ | pleia2: We should be already (I thought that's what we were doing) | 13:50 |
| doctormo_ | pleia2: But don't forget, there is as much structure in odt as there is in anything | 13:50 |
| pleia2 | asciidoc has book directories and things that are confusing | 13:50 |
| doctormo_ | The problems I can see is how much we'll have to rewrite because we don't have odt templates. | 13:50 |
| pleia2 | I don't really understand how it works, or how to create things out of it | 13:51 |
| doctormo_ | pleia2: asciidoc it's self is fairly direct, you create a text file, you run a command on it, it creates a pdf. | 13:51 |
| pleia2 | ok, I'll have to look at it again, I thought there were more directories and files than that | 13:52 |
| doctormo_ | pleia2: There are, but that's not ascii doc's fault, that's mine. | 13:53 |
| === doctormo_ is now known as doctormo | ||
| pleia2 | hmm | 13:55 |
| pleia2 | alright, I'll take a look later http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-learning-board/ubuntu-learning-materials/trunk2/files/head:/maintain/commandline-basics/ is a good example? | 13:57 |
| pleia2 | this does seem reasonable | 13:57 |
| pleia2 | I think I was confused by earlier versions | 13:57 |
| pleia2 | do we have a document explaining the structure yet? If this is a good example I can write one for my own benefit, show it to you and you can confirm it's correct? | 14:00 |
| pleia2 | sorry for being such a pain :) | 14:03 |
| nigel_nb | doctormo: ping | 14:40 |
| nigel_nb | pleia2: up yet? | 14:41 |
| pleia2 | nigel_nb: yeah, but busy morning at work | 14:41 |
| nigel_nb | oh | 14:41 |
| pleia2 | if you want me to review something just give me a link and I'll get to it when I have some time :) | 14:41 |
| nigel_nb | just wanted to let you know, I've pushed up to revision 12 | 14:41 |
| nigel_nb | here's the branch https://code.launchpad.net/~nigelbabu/ubuntu-learning-materials/bazaar-introduction | 14:41 |
| nigel_nb | can u just do a review when you get time and ping/mail me? | 14:42 |
| pleia2 | sure | 14:43 |
| pleia2 | do you want technical testing too? | 14:43 |
| nigel_nb | thanks :) | 14:43 |
| nigel_nb | not really, I doubt if u can test it, since its not complete | 14:43 |
| nigel_nb | but, do let me know if the format gives you trouble | 14:43 |
| pleia2 | ok :) | 14:43 |
| pleia2 | thanks nigel_nb | 14:44 |

| nigel_nb | doctormo: talsemgeest helped me with that one | 15:15 |
| nigel_nb | took a lot of trouble formatting it properly | 15:15 |
| doctormo | nigel_nb: I see, double cudos for getting help when required. | 15:22 |

| ZachK_ | wb ubuntulog | 17:07 |
| doctormo | hey BiosElement, we should talk | 21:20 |
| BiosElement | Hey doctormo, what's up? | 21:20 |
| mhall119|work | sounds serious | 21:22 |
| doctormo | hey mhall119|worknot really, just clarifying what structures are being promoted and taught.' | 21:24 |
| mhall119|work | okay | 21:25 |
| mhall119|work | cause that's how you start the "grandma died" conversation | 21:25 |
| doctormo | mhall119|work: we should talk | 21:27 |
| doctormo | mhall119|work: didyou know that peanuts are really beans? | 21:27 |
| mhall119|work | they're legumes | 21:29 |
| doctormo | Same thing | 21:30 |
| mhall119|work | legumes are the parent class of both beans and peanuts, according to wikipedia | 21:30 |
| mhall119|work | and wikipedia is never wrong | 21:31 |
| mhall119|work | at least, that's what I read on wikipedia | 21:31 |
| * mhall119|work just had the best idea for spam chain email | 21:31 | |
| mhall119|work | I'm going to start an email rumor that going to snopes.com will infect your computer with a virus. | 21:32 |
| mhall119|work | who are you going to use to check if that's true or rumor? | 21:32 |
| _marx_ | beautiful | 21:32 |
