[13:40] <Flimm> Hi everyone! I'm developing a generic graphical error handler for Python, and I'm stuck at what the default error message should say.
[13:41] <Flimm> Here's what I'm using now: <b>It looks like an error has occurred.</b>
[13:41] <Flimm> We're terribly sorry. We didn't expect things to go wrong at this point. You might want to consider helping us out by reporting the crash.
[13:42] <Flimm> But it seems too wordy and possibly too casual.
[13:43] <nigelb> Flimm: is this for apport? i.e., the gui for crash reporting?
[13:43] <Flimm> No, it's independent from Apport, it's meant to be used by any GTK Python app on any distro regardless of whether Apport is installed.
[13:44] <Flimm> Although if Apport is installed, a report button will appear.
[13:45] <nigelb> we're on the wrong channel for this (I'm not sure where either)
[13:54] <Flimm> I was just wondering about the wording.
[13:54] <Flimm> How about: "<b>It looks like an error has occurred.</b>\n We're terribly sorry. Could you help us fix the problem and report the crash?"
