thorwilhumphreybc: i think zope and django both appear to be rather grown and wsgi is an afterthought. the best-of-bread and wsgi right from start of pylons and turbogears (turbogears adds to plyons) seems way more appealing09:16

ubuntujenkinsI have only just started using twitter i should also use identica12:40
humphreybchelp me! http://twitter.com/humphreybc/status/1606671727012:54
nisshhhumphreybc: so you want help designing the getinvolved page?12:56
humphreybcnisshh: just for ideas13:00
humphreybcI have a few I'm going to try13:00
nisshhok13:00
humphreybcjust have a think what would be cool13:00
nisshhwhat are your ideas?13:00
nisshhso i dont repeat yours13:01
humphreybcIt's hard to describe using words :P13:01
nisshhbrb13:01
humphreybcI would like to get some animation in there13:01
nisshhok, hang on my freaking mum wants me to reboot, ill brb13:06
humphreybcubuntujenkins: I'm going to take some artistic licence with the QS website :P13:07
humphreybcthorwil: When you've got a minute, have a look at these: http://humphreybc.homeip.net/files/ump-web.zip13:08
nisshhright im back humphreybc13:10
nisshhstupid non-tech mum13:10
nisshhdoesnt know anything13:10
humphreybclol13:11
nisshhhumphreybc: anyway, you want an idea with some animation right?13:11
humphreybcYeah13:11
nisshhhumphreybc: you have every right to laugh i have to log her into her own gmail every morning13:12
humphreybcSomething that's very visual, where they can hover or click on the roles and something pops up/slides out to explain some more13:12
humphreybcI feel the page is a bit too long13:12
humphreybcand the poor designer role is all the way at the bottom13:12
nisshhmeh13:12
nisshhyea its a bit long to be useful13:12
nisshhthe site just uses html + javascript right now yea?13:13
humphreybcya13:13
humphreybcand CSS, obviously13:13
nisshhoh yea13:13
humphreybcAnyway, implementation is for daker to worry about13:13
nisshhsilly me13:13
humphreybcI just design shit and send him the PSD :P13:13
nisshhhehe13:13
nisshhi like the philosphy page thats a nice touch13:14
nisshhwell, it would look a bit gay just having the colored buttons in a list13:14
humphreybcI'd probably lose some of the colour13:14
humphreybcI kinda want to make it more of a tour...13:15
ubuntujenkinswhat about the current buttons in a circle and then when you clicked on them the page changed to that button and the info about it?13:15
humphreybchm13:15
humphreybcubuntujenkins: yeah, a circle could work. Having the roles closer together is good.13:15
humphreybcI also want to get some of those cheesy recommendation lines from "current employees"13:15
nisshhubuntujenkins: yea thats pretty good13:15
humphreybcyou know, like "I'm an author and I love it. The team is so fantastic and it's awesome and shit. - John Doe, author"13:16
nisshhhumphreybc: what do you mean?13:16
nisshhah i get it13:16
humphreybcand then a real cheesy photo of them13:16
humphreybc..maybe13:16
nisshhyea, but we arent actually selling anything13:16
humphreybcI think we can do something much cooler with the get involved page though13:16
humphreybcnisshh: ah, that's where you're wrong!13:16
nisshhso it would be kind of strange13:16
nisshhhmm?13:17
humphreybcwe're not selling things *for money* but we're selling our manual, and selling the concept of our team to future contributors who are looking for a project to join.13:17
humphreybcand, for USLC, we're selling the idea to potential backers and other contributors and teams13:17
nisshhtrue13:17
humphreybcwe're also trying to recruit people13:17
humphreybcI approach our team as a business :)13:17
humphreybcanyway, I need to hit the sack!13:18
nisshhyea, i was thinking "product" sorry, wrong on my part there13:18
nisshhgnight, humphreybc13:19
