ferryhello all08:41
humphreybchi ferry10:01
TommyBrunnHey humphreybc. You still there?10:23
humphreybcyep10:23
TommyBrunnGood thing I caught you before you went to bed. Do you have any idea what's going on with Quickshot at the moment? I talked to Neil a few days ago, but we never got into any specifics about what's being done.10:24
humphreybcno idea whatsoever10:25
humphreybc:)10:25
humphreybcI actually wanted to talk to you about it :P10:25
TommyBrunnHeh. I'm afraid I'm probably just as out of the loop as you are.10:25
humphreybcbummer10:25
TommyBrunnRed_HamsterX, are you there?10:25
humphreybcyou're supposed to be lead dev!10:25
humphreybcxD10:25
TommyBrunnHey, I handed that off to Neil! ;)10:26
humphreybchahaha10:26
humphreybcwhere's the email from your uni?10:26
humphreybci've been waiting to try out my formal reply10:26
TommyBrunnI'm guessing they just decided that they had no interest in talking to you. I've been in contact with my handler for a week or so, but he hasn't said a word about wanting to speak to you.10:26
TommyBrunnHe does however want me to keep a freaking diary.10:27
humphreybca diary? lol!10:27
humphreybcwell you need to know what's happening then :P10:27
TommyBrunnYeah, I kinda do. With the restructuring of the server-client model I don't know what needs doing, so I feel a tiny bit useless here.10:28
TommyBrunnOh, it's 3am where Neil's at. Then I guess he won't be around for at least another 6 hours or so.10:31
TommyBrunnWhy can't the earth be flat? It would make things so much easier.10:32
TommyBrunnOh well. I'm going to hop into the shower for a bit. I'll probably be back... After you've gone to bed already. :P10:33
humphreybcrighto!10:34
humphreybcubuntujenkins: hi, i'm off to sleep now. TommyBrunn is around somewhere, talk to him about quickshot :)10:58
humphreybcsee if you can get Red_HamsterX in the conversation too, and if you like it might be worthwhile setting up a mailing list for the quickshot devs team10:59
humphreybcchow!10:59
ubuntujenkinscool night humphryebc I will talk to TommyBrunn tonnight10:59
ubuntujenkinswe have a mailing list people quickshotdevs@lists.launchpad.net10:59
ubuntujenkinsquickshot discussion tonight?11:05
TommyBrunnubuntujenkins: Yeah, I'd really like to get some more structure into the development, and make sure that we're all on the same page. I figured we should go through the entire program step by step, and then update the wiki page accordingly.11:08
TommyBrunnA mailing list would be great, since we're all in wildly different time zones.11:09
ubuntujenkinsTommyBrunn the mailing list is quickshotdevs@lists.launchpad.net not everyone is subscribed to it though. I am in and out all day so just leave me a message and I will get back12:26
ubuntujenkinsto you12:27
TommyBrunnYeah, I've sent an email to it already.12:27
ubuntujenkinsjust found it12:27
komsasgodbyk: ""\newglossaryentry{applet}{name={applet},description={An applet is a small program that runs in a \gls{panel} that provides a useful function such as starting a program, viewing the time, or accessing the main menu.}}"15:28
komsaswhat we can translate? from tags..15:29
godbykkomsas: You can translate the name and description.  Leave the first argument untranslated.15:54
godbykkomsas: And then, in the regular document, leave the \gls, \glspl, \Gls, and \Glspl stuff untranslated.15:55
komsasgodbyk: thanks15:55
komsasu15:55

thorwilvish, godbyk: what do you think of http://www.foopics.com/get/273eee35fab1d6a1c8f04e48be0566f8/0 ?20:46
c7phello guys, what should i translate from this string  \newglossaryentry{kernel}{name={kernel},description={....}}21:37
ubuntujenkinshello all21:39
ubuntujenkinsgodbyk I could make a guess but to save it being messed up what shoudl be translated out of this? what should i translate from this string  \newglossaryentry{kernel}{name={kernel},description={....}}  (c&p)21:44
ubuntujenkins*(c7p)21:44
godbykAh.21:44
godbykLeave the first 'kernel' untranslated.  translate the second kernel (the name), and translate the .... (description).21:45
c7pok thank you both guys21:45
godbykTo a translation to pig latin would look like:21:45
ubuntujenkinsthanks godbyk , I will be able to help people with that question now21:46
godbyk\newglossaryentry{kernel}{name={ernelkay}, description={isthay iskay akay escriptionay.}}21:46
c7pnice21:47
godbykthorwil: looks neat. what's it for?21:48
c7psorry for the interruption godbyk. i have this string \pageref{sec:installation:using-wubi} , what should i translate?21:57
godbykc7p: you're not interrupting anything.  Leave all of that as-is (do not translate it).21:57
godbyksomewhere along the way, you'll see \label:sec:installation:using-wubi} and you should leave that untranslated, too.21:58
c7panother question , in the \begingroup\parindent=0pt\parskip=0pt Revision number: 447\qquad  Revision date: 2010-03-07 15:15:15 -060021:58
c7pwhat should i do21:58
godbykyou can leave all that alone, too.21:58
godbyk(it gets inserted each time you run the 'make' command, so anything you do there will be overwritten)21:59
c7pi guess the \chaplink{software-and-packaging} i leave it as it is, right?21:59
godbykin the end, that line won't appear.  it's just there for now so we can keep track of which version of the PDF we're looking at.21:59
godbykc7p: yep.21:59
c7pthank you again :)21:59
godbykThe following should be left alone: \chaplink, \seclink, \label, \ref, \pageref, \nameref.22:00
godbykAlso, leave \gls, \glspl, \Gls, \Glspl alone.22:00
c7pthat helps a lot22:00
