[00:59] <dhillon-v10> mdke, are you around ?
[14:29] <j1mc> jjesse: 'morning :)
[14:30] <j1mc> mdke: do you have some free time for some questions?
[14:35] <j1mc> mdke: it looks like, if i were to adapt ubuntu docs to xubuntu docs, the xsl file that i would most need to be concerned with is the ubuntu-html-single-cust.xsl file
[14:36] <j1mc> it looks like that outputs the docs to the html pages
[14:38] <j1mc> i see where the docs there point to a css file that we would want to change for xubuntu.
[14:45] <j1mc> mdke: ... correction, i think i should use the *ubuntu-html-chunk-cust.xsl* file.
[18:57] <swoody> what's the preferred way to mark wiki pages for deletion?
[19:00] <swoody> ah, I think I found it...

[19:00] <dhillon-v10> swoody, ask starcraftman if he's around to delete them
[19:00] <swoody> is that correct/preferred?
[19:00] <swoody> dhillon-v10: oh I can bother starcraftman >:d
[19:00] <swoody> >:D*
[19:00] <starcraftman> swoody: only if you've a food offering!
[19:00] <dhillon-v10> swoody yup that's what I do most of the time
[19:00] <dhillon-v10> starcraftman, hi what's up
[19:01] <swoody> starcraftman: I didn't make it to the Chicago Loco doc jam today, so I have a load of cookies here ;)
[19:01] <starcraftman> swoody: COOKIES!
[19:01] <swoody> :D
[19:01] <starcraftman> Now, you just need to invent a transporter swoody
[19:01] <swoody> Swoody's Famous Cookies... of DOOM!!
[19:02] <swoody> starcraftman: yeah, that's in Aplha right now. The mouse test... well... it wasn't successful :(
[19:02] <starcraftman> swoody: cookies of doom don't sound very tasty.
[19:02] <starcraftman> so what's wrong with pages? And yes, that is the delete tag, adds it to the cue.
[19:03] <swoody> starcraftman: just cleaning up the Chicago Wiki pages today :)
[19:03] <swoody> like I said, Doc Jam @ Chicago Loco as we speak :)
[19:04] <starcraftman> swoody: and need pages deleted?
[19:04] <starcraftman> Not gonna use em later?
[19:04] <swoody> starcraftman: probably not, we're trying to move some of our topics from unused wiki pages to the ML
[19:04] <dhillon-v10> starcraftman, a user can delete the community wiki pages right
[19:05] <starcraftman> swoody: we talking with wiki.ubuntu.com pages?
[19:05] <swoody> starcraftman: yep :)
[19:05] <starcraftman> dhillon-v10: no, help.ubuntu.com/community pages can only be deleted/renamed by admins, like me.
[19:05] <dhillon-v10> starcraftman, :) admins
[19:05] <starcraftman> swoody: oh alright, you can do it yourself then.
[19:06] <swoody> starcraftman: how do I do that? :o
[19:06] <starcraftman> swoody: You don't know how the secret power? 5 cookie entry fee.
[19:07]  * swoody shoves 5 cookies into an envelope, and labels it 'To: The great North' :)
[19:07] <starcraftman> lol
[19:07] <starcraftman> Top of a Page, More action > Move Rename Delete a page. Pick right option.
[19:07] <swoody> lol, I just found that :)
[19:08] <starcraftman> And NOTE! You must delink all links to a page prior to moves please.
[19:08] <starcraftman> Else, dead links.
[19:08] <swoody> starcraftman: in the process of overhauling wiki, so links will be changed, too :)
[19:08] <swoody> thanks for the help :)
[19:08] <starcraftman> swoody: ok
[21:10] <mdke> j1mc: yes, it's the chunk xsl file
[21:10] <j1mc> mdke: thanks
[21:10] <mdke> j1mc: I'm around now if you have some more questions
[21:12] <j1mc> mdke: thanks - basically, what i was intending to do was to branch ubuntu docs, remove the .bzr file, do some initial changes, and then copy those files into xubuntu-docs
[21:12] <j1mc> i would then do a bzr-add on the xubuntu-docs repo
[21:12] <j1mc> i can do this because all of the ubuntu-docs are in a "desktop guide" folder
[21:13] <j1mc> sorry... s/ubuntu-docs/xubuntu-docs
[21:13] <j1mc> i tried doing a bzr merge lp:ubuntu-docs into xubuntu-docs
[21:14] <j1mc> but i ended up with 1440 conflicts
[21:14] <mdke> hah
[21:14] <mdke> j1mc: isn't it cleaner to just branch ubuntu-docs and keep the history, then make whatever changes you need to?
[21:14] <mdke> that way the revision history is still there, I feel it might be easier to merge other changes back and forward in the future that way
[21:15] <j1mc> mdke: that would work, too... how would i create the new branch up on the xubuntu-docs repo?
[21:17] <mdke> j1mc: probably the easiest way would be to delete the existing lp:xubuntu-docs/lucid branch (which I think is identical to lp:xubuntu-docs/karmic and then replace it with the new one
[21:17] <mdke> or if you're not comfortable in doing that yet, push it up with a different name for now
[21:18] <j1mc> mdke: i'd rather push it up with another name for now
[21:18] <mdke> fine
[21:19] <j1mc> mdke: cool - thanks
[21:29] <mdke> j1mc: np, let me know how it goes
[21:30] <j1mc> mdke: thanks again.  it looks like i've got things set up in a good place
[21:32] <mdke> I'll be happy to help with the packaging: would be good to keep things closer to ubuntu-docs
[21:45] <j1mc> mdke: i agree - thanks for your help
[21:49] <mdke> phil's mallard mockup is quite cool
[21:50] <dhillon-v10> mdke, hi :) how is it going
[21:50] <j1mc> mdke: he has ported ubuntu-docs to mallard?
[21:51] <j1mc> mdke: shaunm has revised the site at http://projectmallard.org - the site is written in mallard.
[21:51] <dhillon-v10> j1mc, hi :)
[21:52] <j1mc> hey dhillon-v10
[21:52] <dhillon-v10> j1mc, I am working on some mockups too as we decided on that meeting, shaunm send me some really cool templates
[21:59] <mdke> j1mc: no, it's just a mockup at present I think
[22:00] <mdke> j1mc: but his idea is to port the whole thing
[22:02] <dhillon-v10> mdke, can you give me a link to that mockup
[22:03] <mdke> dhillon-v10: it's the second link here: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-doc/2010-January/014184.html
[22:03] <dhillon-v10> mdke, thanks a lot :)
[22:04] <dhillon-v10> mdke, oh that email is still in my inbox :)
[22:04] <mdke> i'm off to bed, ciao
[22:04] <j1mc> ciao, mdke
