godbyk | Hmm.. let's take a look. | 00:00 |
---|---|---|
godbyk | http://kevin.godby.org/private/ubuntu-manual/main.pdf | 00:03 |
humphreybc | what do you think?' | 00:11 |
godbyk | Hmm.. | 00:14 |
godbyk | I like the subsection names -- they're more in line with answering the 'how do I...?' questions. | 00:15 |
godbyk | I need to reformat the TOC sometime, but I do like the added level of headings. | 00:16 |
humphreybc | yeah | 00:16 |
humphreybc | okay cool | 00:16 |
humphreybc | well when you're ready push through the changes. don't forget to pull my latest revision tho! | 00:16 |
godbyk | (I think they'll be more useful to people than the more generic section headings) | 00:16 |
godbyk | will do. | 00:16 |
godbyk | gah.. merging sucks. | 00:19 |
godbyk | okay, should be pushed now. | 00:19 |
godbyk | hope I didn't hork anyone else's stuff in the merge. | 00:19 |
humphreybc | haha | 00:23 |
humphreybc | nope it looks okay | 00:23 |
humphreybc | wow | 00:23 |
humphreybc | 70 pages now | 00:23 |
humphreybc | I won't be surprised if the final publication is 150 pages | 00:23 |
godbyk | keep in mind we haven't included any screenshots at all yet. | 00:28 |
godbyk | they'll take up a lot of space. | 00:28 |
humphreybc | yup i know | 00:32 |
humphreybc | so maybe even 200 pages | 00:32 |
humphreybc | eek | 00:32 |
humphreybc | so much for 50! | 00:32 |
vish | godbyk: use olive , rather than the terminal , merging is fun with that ;) | 06:30 |
godbyk | heh | 06:31 |
godbyk | nothing is labeled in olve.. | 06:31 |
godbyk | the toolbar buttons all look the same, no labels, no tooltips. | 06:31 |
godbyk | I gave up. :-) | 06:31 |
vish | godbyk: yeah , initially it seems a bit weird , but for me it was easier than typing commands in the terminal ;p | 06:32 |
vish | godbyk: but now it does have labels , or maybe because i use text below labels option | 06:32 |
vish | text below icons* | 06:33 |
godbyk | ah, I don't use that option. | 06:33 |
godbyk | and when I hovered the mouse over the toolbar buttons, there were no tool tips. | 06:33 |
vish | yeah , thats bad... :/ | 06:34 |
IlyaHaykinson_ | ianto: ping | 06:43 |
humphreybc | thorwil: ping | 10:18 |
thorwil | humphreybc: pong | 10:19 |
humphreybc | how's it going? | 10:19 |
humphreybc | I just wanted to let you know that the "Artwork" page of the wiki is now the design team's sandpit. Also, have you been working on a revised title page with the new name? | 10:20 |
thorwil | humphreybc: i asked vish to put the new title on his design. it might already be in place | 10:21 |
humphreybc | cool | 10:21 |
humphreybc | you could probably clean up the artwork page somewhat | 10:21 |
humphreybc | perhaps move all of the previous submissions to a subpage | 10:21 |
thorwil | humphreybc: what's the reasoning behind "Version 0.1 development-release January 2010" | 11:04 |
thorwil | ? | 11:04 |
humphreybc | it's the release of our manual | 11:04 |
humphreybc | 0.3 is the alpha release | 11:05 |
humphreybc | 0.6 is beta, 0.9 is RC and 1.0 is final | 11:05 |
thorwil | humphreybc: it's long and unnecessarily technical | 11:05 |
humphreybc | we could drop the development release part | 11:05 |
thorwil | humphreybc: at least the "development release" should go | 11:05 |
thorwil | heh | 11:05 |
humphreybc | there we go :) | 11:05 |
thorwil | our audience is unlikely to know about the 1.0 scheme, but it is nice to have something that marks pre 1.0 as incomplete | 11:07 |
humphreybc | yeah it's not really for them | 11:07 |
humphreybc | it's for us :) | 11:08 |
humphreybc | that's why it should be small, and it probably doesn't even need to be on the cover | 11:08 |
thorwil | humphreybc: if there will be something like a 1.1, it needs to be indicated on the cover | 11:09 |
humphreybc | i guess we'll just see how we go | 11:09 |
humphreybc | there shouldn't be a 1.1 | 11:09 |
humphreybc | in theory | 11:09 |
thorwil | humphreybc: i propose: nothing on the 1.0 cover. a "2nd edition" on a 1.1, if the need arises. and so on | 11:10 |
humphreybc | sounds like a plan | 11:10 |
thorwil | good. i'll put that on my design specification | 11:10 |
thorwil | why does the wiki have to be so s l o w | 13:32 |
thorwil | vish: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-manual/Artwork | 13:53 |
vish | thorwil: neat.. I'll read it fully soonish | 14:08 |
dutchie | godbyk: http://pastebin.com/fdb4b2b | 22:25 |
godbyk | You have to escape the # signs. Use \# | 22:26 |
dutchie | not my change | 22:26 |
dutchie | but I will fix | 22:26 |
godbyk | though if it's a url, you should put it in \url{http://...} | 22:26 |
godbyk | yeah, I've had to fix some things to get it to compile, too. we should have people run 'make' before committing. | 22:27 |
godbyk | just to make sure everything works first. | 22:27 |
dutchie | I can't even see what file it's in | 22:27 |
* dutchie resorts to grep | 22:27 | |
dutchie | wow, up to rev 200 | 22:29 |
dutchie | rev 200 | 22:29 |
dutchie | r200 | 22:30 |
godbyk | looks like security/security.tex | 22:30 |
dutchie | rev 200 | 22:30 |
manualbot | http://bazaar.launchpad.net/ubuntu-manual/revision/200 | http://bazaar.launchpad.net/ubuntu-manual -r 200 | 22:30 |
dutchie | :) | 22:30 |
godbyk | nice | 22:31 |
dutchie | ooh, it connects over ipv6 too | 22:32 |
