| godbyk | G'night, dutchie. | 00:01 |
| humphreybc | godbyk: there's a couple of make errors in the latest revision | 00:55 |
| godbyk | yep | 00:55 |
| godbyk | I've fixed them but haven't pushed yet. | 00:55 |
| humphreybc | swell | 00:55 |
| godbyk | apparently no one compiles before they commit. | 00:55 |
| godbyk | I'll push the fixes for you.. just a sec. | 00:55 |
| humphreybc | nice | 00:55 |
| godbyk | humphreybc: pushed. | 00:56 |
| godbyk | let me know if there are still problems. | 00:57 |
| godbyk | someone had renamed the 'around the desktop' chapter file, so that was missing. I renamed it back. | 00:57 |
| godbyk | also, someone used \option to specify the name of an option in a dialog box and there was no command for that, so I wrote one real quick. | 00:57 |
| humphreybc | ahh ha | 00:58 |
| humphreybc | gotcha | 00:58 |
| thorwil | vish, godbyk: i got a mail from humphreybc asking me for a title page proposal | 07:20 |
| thorwil | vish: i thought you took care of that and it was already in place? | 07:20 |
| godbyk | thorwil: Yeah, he just told me that I should expect a title page from you soon. | 07:20 |
| thorwil | godbyk: that was wishful thinking, then | 07:21 |
| godbyk | lol. I figured it was the result of some discussion between him and you. | 07:22 |
| godbyk | Perhaps he hadn't seen the updated alpha title page yet. | 07:22 |
| thorwil | no discussion happened | 07:23 |
| thorwil | godbyk: what's the state of the internal layout and could you make a list of fonts in consideration? | 07:25 |
| godbyk | I wanted to wait until after the alpha 'release' to really start hacking on the internal layout. (I didn't want to accidentally break anything so close to the deadline.) | 07:26 |
| godbyk | Font-wise, I'm currently trying to track down suitable fonts for the non-Latin scripts: Telugu, Arabic, Japanese, Greek, Russian, Chinese, etc. | 07:27 |
| godbyk | Finding a typeface for the Latin (and extended Latin) scripts will be a lot easier. | 07:27 |
| godbyk | So most of my time lately has been spent trying to get the translation stuff to work smoothly. | 07:28 |
| godbyk | (Well, from the formatting end of things, at least. I'll leave the po4a stuff up to dutchie.) | 07:28 |
| thorwil | guess we should just check what free fonts with an extended latin set are available | 07:30 |
| thorwil | as i consider to initiate a type-only title page design stage | 07:31 |
| godbyk | thorwil: Yeah, it'd be good if we can make sure the title page and interior design are not at odds with each other. | 07:33 |
| thorwil | make fails: http://pastebin.com/d3d9a948b | 07:45 |
| thorwil | really nasty it doesn't honor ctrl-c | 07:46 |
| godbyk | thorwil: I'm looking into it. | 07:51 |
| godbyk | Seems people don't run make before committing. | 07:51 |
| godbyk | thorwil: I just pushed a fix. Try it now. | 07:57 |
| godbyk | A few typos in the around-the-desktop chapter. | 07:57 |
| thorwil | godbyk: works, ty | 07:58 |
| godbyk | np | 07:58 |
| vish | thorwil: heya.. its already there.. | 08:21 |
| thorwil | yeah, mailed Ben with both of you in CC | 08:27 |
| * vish just read and replied | 08:28 | |
| vish | thorwil: i think he wants different fonts | 08:35 |
| thorwil | *shrug* | 08:36 |
| godbyk | What's up? | 08:36 |
| vish | meh , with no communication what can we keep guessing :/ | 08:36 |
| vish | godbyk: not sure what benjamin wants :s | 08:36 |
| godbyk | ah, I'm not sure either. | 08:37 |
| thorwil | vish: we'll see whence he replies | 08:37 |
| * vish wonders if there is no web connectivity at all in the whole of nz apart from his home connection o.0 | 08:37 | |
| thorwil | if/once, actually | 08:38 |
| godbyk | He just said earlier: humphreybc> godbyk - thorwil should contact you at some point today or tomorrow with a new title page | 08:38 |
| godbyk | didn't give any details. | 08:38 |
| godbyk | heh.. he was on a bit earlier, so I think he's back online now. | 08:38 |
| vish | godbyk: title pages proposals dont grow from trees ;) [well the pages do ;)] and then we have wolter throwing up a new proposal and everyone says , yes we want that and no feedback or direction what to do .. | 08:39 |
| * vish feels like a running headless chicken | 08:40 | |
| godbyk | vish: I hear ya! | 08:40 |
| godbyk | Design-by-committee is evil. | 08:40 |
| thorwil | i'm writing an email to the list | 08:41 |
| thorwil | explaining the what and why of a design process and describing the current state of things | 08:41 |
| * godbyk wonders if that'll go over like a lead balloon. | 08:42 | |
| godbyk | I think it needs to be done, though. | 08:42 |
| vish | thorwil: how to apply kerning in inkscape? or rather is there an option? | 08:56 |
| thorwil | vish: yes, it's a modifier key plus arrow keys right/left thing | 08:56 |
| thorwil | not sure if it was alt or ctrl ... | 08:56 |
| * vish hmm.. tries | 08:57 | |
| vish | ah , got it , its alt+ | 09:01 |
| * thorwil sends mail in 3 parts | 09:44 | |
| ianto | Anyone seen Ilya lately? | 16:16 |
