humphreybc-mini | vish: ping? | 06:34 |
---|---|---|
vish | humphreybc-mini: hey | 06:35 |
humphreybc-mini | got a minute? | 06:35 |
vish | humphreybc-mini: yup | 06:36 |
humphreybc-mini | groovy | 06:36 |
humphreybc-mini | I got your email | 06:36 |
humphreybc-mini | http://www.flickr.com/photos/humphreybc/sets/72157624139515783/ | 06:36 |
humphreybc-mini | that's what the final design will look like, more or less. I need to tweak some of the shadows and mock up a couple more pages, but that's pretty much it | 06:37 |
vish | humphreybc-mini: but isnt about us and contrib the same? | 06:37 |
humphreybc-mini | I like the download icon, the second, skinnier one. The contributors one is excellent. For the getting involved one, I do like the idea of a puzzle piece | 06:37 |
humphreybc-mini | nope, they're different - i need to change the wording though | 06:38 |
humphreybc-mini | about us is about the team | 06:38 |
humphreybc-mini | contributors is just the credits | 06:38 |
humphreybc-mini | basically | 06:38 |
vish | ah ok | 06:38 |
humphreybc-mini | Do you think it would be better to make the credits page a link at the bottom, and replace the main link in the nav bar with quickshot? | 06:38 |
humphreybc-mini | I want to limit the main links up top to four | 06:38 |
vish | humphreybc-mini: also, the about us is usually the last link in a page/row | 06:39 |
vish | we can move the about us to the bottom and leave the contrib on the top | 06:39 |
humphreybc-mini | true | 06:40 |
humphreybc-mini | do you think contributors deserves a main link up the top? | 06:40 |
humphreybc-mini | (considering the other links down the bottom) | 06:40 |
humphreybc-mini | No I want the about us up the top | 06:41 |
humphreybc-mini | otherwise no one knows about the team | 06:41 |
vish | hmm , not sure. depends on what we want. if the goal is to display the contribs more prominently , then yes.. if not, meh | 06:41 |
humphreybc-mini | it's an important page | 06:41 |
humphreybc-mini | (about us) | 06:41 |
humphreybc-mini | I think the ordering and naming is okay | 06:42 |
humphreybc-mini | the distinction between about us and contributors is fairly clear | 06:42 |
humphreybc-mini | with "what we do" opposed to "who we are" | 06:42 |
vish | humphreybc-mini: why not have the contribs in the about us page? | 06:43 |
humphreybc-mini | it'd make it too long | 06:43 |
* vish checks all the images ,to "get" the final design | 06:43 | |
humphreybc-mini | and there would be two videos, then | 06:43 |
vish | humphreybc-mini: make the contributors name a scroll | 06:44 |
vish | if someone clicks , it can be displayed in full , else it will be ascrolling list | 06:45 |
vish | *a scrolling | 06:45 |
humphreybc-mini | hmm | 06:45 |
humphreybc-mini | I think the about us page will be too full then | 06:47 |
humphreybc-mini | anyway | 06:47 |
humphreybc-mini | so icons | 06:47 |
vish | humphreybc-mini: where is the about us page? | 06:47 |
vish | i cant find it in flickr | 06:47 |
humphreybc-mini | http://www.flickr.com/photos/humphreybc/4695329375/in/set-72157624139515783/ | 06:47 |
vish | humphreybc-mini: why not name the about us to "goals" or something similar.. basically the "about us" being the 2nd item is a bit weird | 06:50 |
vish | anyway.. ;) | 06:50 |
vish | humphreybc-mini: the "how you can help" is more of a "get involved" subtopic | 06:51 |
godbyk | contributors could be a subpage of 'about us', too. | 06:54 |
humphreybc-mini | it's just a pointer to get involved | 06:54 |
humphreybc-mini | icons :P | 06:54 |
humphreybc-mini | it could be, but it's not going to be :) | 06:54 |
vish | godbyk: we try .. ;) | 06:55 |
godbyk | Just a thought. :) | 06:55 |
humphreybc-mini | soooo icons | 06:55 |
humphreybc-mini | if you have a look around the site, I've used several more icons in places to break up text | 06:56 |
humphreybc-mini | well, images | 06:56 |
vish | humphreybc-mini: yeah , the icons , "about us" ca be an "i" instead of a "?" | 06:56 |
vish | "i" = info | 06:56 |
humphreybc-mini | vish: that's the only icon i'm stuck on | 06:56 |
vish | '?' = help | 06:56 |
vish | humphreybc-mini: oh , you prefer it that way /only/ ? | 06:57 |
humphreybc-mini | no no | 06:57 |
humphreybc-mini | I mean I like the icon ideas for the other three in the nav page | 06:57 |
humphreybc-mini | nav header | 06:57 |
humphreybc-mini | just cant come up with something for the about us | 06:59 |
vish | on it | 06:59 |
humphreybc-mini | also there's the person on the get involved page | 07:01 |
humphreybc-mini | I'd rather he have a more "thinking" look about it | 07:01 |
humphreybc-mini | him* | 07:01 |
humphreybc-mini | with his arms crossed and his finger on his chin or something | 07:01 |
thorwil | morning! | 07:02 |
vish | godbyk: lets tag thorwil ;) | 07:02 |
humphreybc-mini | and also, vish, if you see here I just used the icons from the header as watermark type things for the right side http://www.flickr.com/photos/humphreybc/4695964476/in/set-72157624139515783/ | 07:02 |
thorwil | huh? tag with what? | 07:02 |
vish | humphreybc-mini: yeah , thats no bigge | 07:03 |
humphreybc-mini | vish: I'm not sure whether we can come up with a better series of images for a watermark that better works with the "philosophy" | 07:04 |
vish | thorwil: we were trying the convince humphreybc-mini the "about us" and "contributors" can be merged into one ;) your turn | 07:04 |
humphreybc-mini | not gonna happen :)O | 07:04 |
vish | ;p | 07:05 |
vish | thorwil: YOU FAILED before you even tried ;p | 07:05 |
thorwil | vish: no, i SUCCEEDED in not even trying what can only fail :) | 07:06 |
vish | lol | 07:06 |
humphreybc-mini | haha | 07:07 |
humphreybc-mini | anyway | 07:07 |
thorwil | seriously, "About us" and "Contributors" would be candidates for merging, indeed. but the sub-titles "What we do" and "Who we are" do give sense to separation | 07:08 |
humphreybc-mini | do you want me to email you the list of icons that I need vish? | 07:08 |
vish | sure | 07:08 |
shrini | team: | 07:09 |
shrini | http://twitter.com/TheUbuntuManual | 07:09 |

shrini | s | 07:13 |
shrini | now it is woking | 07:13 |
shrini | :-) | 07:13 |
humphreybc-mini | right | 07:18 |

shrini | team: need help | 07:20 |
shrini | is there any link | 07:20 |
shrini | that explains how to make the ubuntu-manual ourself? | 07:22 |
godbyk | shrini: http://ubuntu-manual.org/getinvolved/editors may help. | 07:24 |
shrini | godbyk: thats great | 07:27 |
shrini | why we use TeX Live 2009? | 07:27 |
shrini | any new features over 2007? | 07:27 |
godbyk | shrini: yeah, the 2007 packages don't support the translation stuff we're doing. | 07:28 |
godbyk | shrini: Though ubuntujenkins has 2009 packages in a PPA now. | 07:29 |
shrini | PPA? | 07:29 |
shrini | right | 07:29 |
shrini | i think i too used PPA | 07:29 |
shrini | i did not installed manually | 07:29 |
shrini | but forget how i did | 07:29 |
shrini | hehe | 07:29 |
godbyk | I'm afraid I don't have any instructions for his PPA. I've seen links float past, but I don't have those logs handy. | 07:31 |
shrini | okok | 07:32 |
shrini | no worries | 07:32 |
shrini | should request ubuntujenkins to document it somewhere | 07:33 |
godbyk | I think he has---I just don't know where. | 07:36 |
nisshh | whats this about the manual ppa? | 07:38 |
godbyk | this is about the ppa ubuntujenkins created for newer texlive packages. | 07:40 |
nisshh | yea, im using it too | 07:41 |
godbyk | Do you happen to have the instructions ubuntujenkins gave you for setting it up? | 07:41 |
godbyk | I think shrini wants to use it, too. | 07:41 |
nisshh | there was no setup required | 07:43 |
godbyk | Well, you had to run add-apt-repository and then install the packages, right? | 07:44 |
nisshh | all i did was add the ppa, update my sources and install a specific package | 07:44 |
nisshh | yea | 07:44 |
nisshh | hang on ill find the package | 07:44 |
godbyk | Yeah.. can you give those instructions to shrini? | 07:44 |

shrini | wants to use latex for pdf version | 07:54 |
nisshh | so he wants to re-write the book using latex to output a pdf, am i right? | 07:55 |
shrini | yes | 07:55 |
shrini | nisshh: you are right | 07:55 |
nisshh | ok, and your friend is using the ppa to install tex? | 07:56 |
shrini | i like to show him on | 07:56 |

nisshh | ok | 07:57 |
shrini | and how to compile the manual to pdf | 07:57 |
shrini | he know latex | 07:57 |
shrini | he may tweek our code to fit for his needs | 07:57 |
nisshh | right i see | 07:57 |
nisshh | so he uses ubuntu? | 07:57 |
nisshh | or a debian derivative? | 07:57 |
shrini | ubuntu | 07:57 |
nisshh | right ok | 07:57 |
nisshh | well, there are no instructions for the ppa as far as i know, but its dead simple to use anyway | 07:58 |
nisshh | shrini: what does your friend need help with, exactly? | 07:59 |
nisshh | just the ppa? | 07:59 |
shrini | ya | 08:00 |
shrini | PPA info will be fine | 08:00 |
nisshh | ok | 08:00 |
shrini | as it is easy to install | 08:00 |
nisshh | yep | 08:00 |
shrini | we need have the PPA and install instructions somewhere online | 08:00 |
shrini | to give link | 08:01 |
shrini | to others | 08:01 |

nisshh | anyway: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-manual/+archive/ubuntu-manual | 08:02 |
nisshh | thats the ppa | 08:02 |
nisshh | shrini: oh, sorry, i misunderstood, yea we do need instructions | 08:02 |
shrini | :-) | 08:03 |
shrini | if we have a guide on how to use the ppa and install | 08:03 |
nisshh | the package you want to install from that ppa is: ubuntu-manual-tex | 08:03 |
shrini | we can share the link to beginners | 08:03 |
shrini | thnx | 08:03 |

shrini | thanks a lot | 08:07 |
nisshh | no problem, just give me a few minutes to sort it out | 08:07 |

shrini | :-) | 08:34 |
nisshh | cool | 08:35 |
nisshh | ubuntujenkins: do we have instructions up somewhere, that tell people how to use the texlive ppa? | 10:39 |
ubuntujenkins | ?mppa | nisshh | 10:40 |
quickshotdevs | nisshh: The manual team has a latex PPA you can add it by running these commands in a terminal(Applications → Accessories → Terminal): sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-manual/ubuntu-manual then sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install ubuntu-manual-tex | 10:40 |
ubuntujenkins | they are not on the website yet | 10:40 |
nisshh | right | 10:40 |
ubuntujenkins | its on the long list of things to do | 10:41 |
nisshh | as a temporary thing that i did for shrini today: https://freakaboutlinux.wordpress.com/2010/06/15/tip-using-the-ubuntu-manual-projects-ppa/ | 10:41 |
nisshh | ubuntujenkins: yea, i thought it might be | 10:41 |
ubuntujenkins | thanks nisshh am i ok just to copy what you wrote onto the website? | 10:42 |
nisshh | sure | 10:42 |
nisshh | go for it | 10:42 |
ubuntujenkins | cool I will try and sort that today | 10:42 |
nisshh | cool | 10:42 |
nisshh | ubuntujenkins: also, i read your post on the ML thismorning, very cool idea | 11:27 |
ubuntujenkins | nisshh: glad you like it just got to make a start on it | 11:40 |
nisshh | ubuntujenkins: yea, im interested in working on it though :) | 11:46 |
ubuntujenkins | nisshh: that would be great there is a suggestion to extend help.ubuntu.com so you can view it in yelp and on other platforms | 11:47 |
ubuntujenkins | nisshh: https://lists.launchpad.net/ubuntu-manual/msg01966.html I can't decide the pros and cons between help.ubuntu.com and a program | 11:48 |
nisshh | ubuntujenkins: well, help.ubuntu.com is horribly outdated in some parts | 11:49 |
nisshh | so thats a con | 11:49 |
ubuntujenkins | yea I am also unsure of where it would really fit in. We are updating as per bens idea but I have no clue how that is working | 11:51 |
ubuntujenkins | are we replacing help.ubuntu.com with bens idea or is that going some where else? | 11:52 |
ubuntujenkins | it would probably work in the grand scheme of bens idea it would look very shiny as a page or two on the site | 11:53 |
nisshh | yea i agree | 11:53 |
nisshh | i dont know much about bens idea either | 11:54 |
ubuntujenkins | All i know is there are a lot of pictures and its going to be a lot of work | 11:54 |
nisshh | no kidding :) | 11:55 |
ubuntujenkins | pro is i like to write programs and think i would learn allot doing it :P | 11:56 |
ubuntujenkins | not a great pro though | 11:56 |
nisshh | yep | 11:57 |
ubuntujenkins | hmm we need more pros | 11:59 |
* ubuntujenkins think luke think! | 12:01 | |
humphreybc-mini | what's up | 12:03 |
nisshh | yo | 12:03 |
ubuntujenkins | hey humphreybc-mini | 12:03 |

humphreybc-mini | feel the burn | 12:03 |
humphreybc-mini | Are you going to watch the NZ vs Slovakia game? | 12:03 |
dutchie | humphreybc-mini has world cup fever all of a sudden | 12:04 |
nisshh | humphreybc-mini: hehe, i dont really care, i dont give a rats ass about most sports | 12:04 |
humphreybc-mini | Yeah I don't really care too much either, but it is nice to see NZ in the world cup | 12:04 |
humphreybc-mini | I watched us win the qualifier at a party, everyone went nuts when we got in | 12:04 |
nisshh | hehe | 12:05 |
humphreybc-mini | my flatmates have exams and shit tomorrow so I'm watching it alone :( | 12:05 |
* ubuntujenkins has finished his last exam | 12:05 | |
nisshh | ill be here! :) | 12:05 |
humphreybc-mini | haha | 12:05 |
ubuntujenkins | anyone know how to browse the internet in yelp? | 12:07 |
nisshh | ah, nope | 12:09 |
nisshh | is that even possible? | 12:09 |
ubuntujenkins | apparently you can view webpages in it acording to https://lists.launchpad.net/ubuntu-manual/msg01966.html so i guess you can | 12:09 |
nisshh | meh, ok | 12:09 |
ubuntujenkins | I just want to see how pages look in yelp | 12:10 |
* nisshh is waiting for a torrent to finish so he can install and use mutt | 12:10 | |
ubuntujenkins | thats in the repo | 12:10 |
nisshh | ubuntujenkins: i know | 12:11 |
ubuntujenkins | ok just thought i would mention it | 12:11 |
nisshh | but my net is so slow and crappy that i cant install stuff and torrent at full speed at the same time :) | 12:11 |
* ubuntujenkins is off to lunch be back | 12:11 | |
nisshh | ok | 12:12 |
humphreybc-mini | yelp sucks | 12:13 |
humphreybc-mini | it can't do anything of any worth in a reasonable amount of time | 12:13 |
nisshh | humphreybc-mini: yep | 12:13 |
nisshh | although apparently its got performance improvements in 10.10 | 12:14 |
humphreybc-mini | i'd grow old and die before I learnt how to use my computer if I relied on yelp | 12:14 |
nisshh | hehe | 12:14 |
humphreybc-mini | only 15 minutes till kick off | 12:15 |
humphreybc-mini | you got a tv nearby Ryan? | 12:15 |
nisshh | um, if you count the living room nearby, yes | 12:15 |
humphreybc-mini | lol | 12:16 |
nisshh | in my case that would be 40 meters away | 12:16 |
nisshh | what? just because i cant afford a 42" HDTV for my room :) | 12:16 |
humphreybc-mini | I don't have one of them! | 12:17 |
humphreybc-mini | I have two 24" monitors | 12:17 |
nisshh | oh, ok thats alright then! | 12:17 |

humphreybc-mini | haha | 12:18 |
nisshh | humphreybc-mini: have you seen the movie called The A Team? | 12:18 |
humphreybc-mini | not yet no | 12:18 |
humphreybc-mini | it looks terrible | 12:18 |
humphreybc-mini | have you seen the original series? | 12:19 |

nisshh | dont ever ask me to remember something | 12:19 |
humphreybc-mini | lol | 12:19 |
nisshh | i have a photographic memory | 12:19 |
humphreybc-mini | that means you should be able to remember tonnes of shit | 12:20 |
nisshh | im like a computer with only 8MB's of RAM but shotwell installed on it | 12:20 |
humphreybc-mini | lol | 12:21 |
nisshh | no, a photographic memory means i remember images or the position of things much better than data | 12:21 |
thorwil | there is only one true Mr. T / B.A. Baracus! | 12:21 |
nisshh | hehe | 12:21 |

humphreybc-mini | motorsport can be interesting | 12:36 |
dutchie | but it can be very dull | 12:36 |
humphreybc-mini | yes | 12:36 |
humphreybc-mini | most sports can be either | 12:36 |
dutchie | yeah | 12:37 |
humphreybc-mini | dutchie: what's that omnipresent sound of flies? | 12:37 |

dutchie | this is one thing where identica is actually better | 12:40 |
dutchie | it does conversations | 12:41 |
humphreybc-mini | lol | 12:41 |
humphreybc-mini | but does everybody in the world with access to a computer use it? | 12:41 |
dutchie | it's certainly technically a better platform | 12:41 |
dutchie | no | 12:41 |
dutchie | blimey | 12:42 |
dutchie | this is not a very good match | 12:42 |
humphreybc-mini | it just has a gay name | 12:43 |
humphreybc-mini | is it open source? | 12:43 |
dutchie | yes | 12:43 |
humphreybc-mini | looks like all other matches to me | 12:43 |
dutchie | see, we're spoilt by the premiership over here | 12:43 |
humphreybc-mini | that's why identi.ca is failing then | 12:44 |
humphreybc-mini | there's your problem | 12:44 |
humphreybc-mini | shouldn't you be working or something dutchie? | 12:44 |

humphreybc-mini | so we're doing pretty good | 12:46 |
dutchie | started reasonably well | 12:46 |
dutchie | slovakia are getting the pressure on more now | 12:46 |
dutchie | though their attacking is a bit rubbish | 12:46 |
humphreybc-mini | our defence is comparable to the turkish defence at Gallipoli | 12:47 |
dutchie | that free kick was dreadful | 12:47 |
humphreybc-mini | have you got the same commenter as me? | 12:48 |
dutchie | probably not | 12:48 |
humphreybc-mini | he just talked about new zealand now becoming a football nation and then the woman's under 17 something | 12:49 |

* humphreybc-mini knows the phonetic alphabet | 13:00 | |
humphreybc-mini | our defence is the bomb | 13:00 |
humphreybc-mini | point is, it didn't | 13:00 |
dutchie | it will at some point | 13:01 |
humphreybc-mini | stop being so negative | 13:02 |
dutchie | you call that defence awesome? | 13:03 |

humphreybc | we need to get a mutha fudging goal | 13:13 |
dutchie | he's missed a couple of crosses he should have picked up | 13:13 |
humphreybc | do they do penalty shootouts and all that for 0 - 0 games? | 13:13 |
dutchie | not in the group stage | 13:13 |
humphreybc | I think a draw would be okay for NZ | 13:14 |
humphreybc | anything other than a loss | 13:14 |
dutchie | i still think slovakia will score | 13:14 |
dutchie | see, goalkeeper | 13:14 |
dutchie | that could have ended very badly | 13:15 |
humphreybc | goalkeeper = pure win | 13:15 |
dutchie | he was lucky | 13:15 |
humphreybc | pure, unadulterated win | 13:15 |

humphreybc | Even scientists don't understand offside | 13:39 |

dutchie | it's simpler than LBW in cricket | 13:39 |

nisshh | i think humphreybc did :) | 14:37 |
flan | ubuntujenkins, pong. | 14:59 |
ubuntujenkins | hey flan can you do a file that opens up a window pleas once i understand it i cna do the rest | 14:59 |
ubuntujenkins | if that made any sense | 14:59 |
flan | It... really didn't. | 15:00 |
ubuntujenkins | I am doing the gui and would like to avoid going the though the work flow to check every window can you do a python file that can call a window out of order | 15:01 |
* ubuntujenkins is rather tired from exams | 15:01 | |
flan | Obviously. You're usually a lot more coherent. =P | 15:02 |
ubuntujenkins | yea i am never good at explaining stuff | 15:02 |
ubuntujenkins | does that now make sense? | 15:02 |
dutchie | you want a python script that opens an empty window? | 15:03 |
flan | For the most part, each popup can just have its own .glade file. | 15:03 |
flan | You'll give each one an __init__(self, ...) function, if not already provided, and use ... to transfer session variables. | 15:03 |
dutchie | oh, ignore me | 15:03 |
flan | When invoked as part of the workflow, the parent window will pass those values. | 15:04 |
flan | When testing, you'll seed them in the if __name__ == '__main__' section. | 15:04 |
flan | Following thus far? | 15:04 |
ubuntujenkins | hmm no i think i should be more awake | 15:04 |
flan | I'll still be here when you're more alert, then. | 15:05 |
flan | I'm planning to start CSS work on the server tonight. | 15:05 |
flan | My tonight. | 15:05 |
ubuntujenkins | ok cool I will try and have a nap and talk later thanks | 15:05 |
flan | I hope you feel rested soon. Exams can be exhausting. | 15:06 |
ubuntujenkins | yea they are | 15:06 |
* dutchie goes to catch a bus | 15:06 | |
hannie | String 1099: Now click \menu{More Info\then Install} to install the application. | 16:25 |
hannie | I think this should be: Now click \button{More Info\then Install} to install the application. | 16:25 |
ubuntujenkins | pleia2: am i ok to set up an user account on the learning team moddle. I would like to see what it is like | 18:32 |
pleia2 | ubuntujenkins: yeah go for it, you should be able to use your launchpad id as an openid account | 18:33 |
ubuntujenkins | pleia2: cool thanks I will, just interested to see what it is like | 18:33 |
pleia2 | ubuntujenkins: if you need admin, just let me know | 18:33 |
pleia2 | :) | 18:33 |
ubuntujenkins | thanks pleia2 , don't think i will need admin :) | 18:33 |
ubuntujenkins | pleia2: I thought this was the case but i use moddle nearly every day. my uni has it it is called "learn" | 18:38 |
pleia2 | ubuntujenkins: cool, I know of a few schools that use it (I support one install at a school in philadelphia), and canonical used (uses?) it for their online for-pay courses | 18:39 |
ubuntujenkins | does sort of do what i was thinking but not a shiney | 18:39 |
pleia2 | the interface is a bit difficult to use | 18:39 |
pleia2 | but there are lots of guides on workflow online, which helps if you can take the time to learn to use it | 18:40 |
ubuntujenkins | it works but, there is something about it that is not so good looking or exciting | 18:41 |
ubuntujenkins | and my lectures struggle to add files | 18:41 |
* pleia2 nods | 18:42 | |
ubuntujenkins | can i enrol my self in courses so i can look at the material? | 18:42 |
pleia2 | yep | 18:42 |
pleia2 | the inkscape and gimp course is a good example | 18:46 |
ubuntujenkins | i need to learn those | 18:46 |
ubuntujenkins | wow the gimp one does look good | 18:47 |
ubuntujenkins | these tutorials are really good | 18:56 |
