| godbyk | Hey, thorwil. Do you think you'll stick to the same title page for the Maverick edition or design something new? | 12:17 |
|---|---|---|
| thorwil | godbyk: same design, unless i stumble over a magically hidden time slot and can then design something better :) | 12:21 |
| godbyk | thorwil: Duly noted. :) | 12:23 |
| godbyk | I'll change the title text on the one in the maverick repository and regenerate the PDFs then. (Unless you'd prefer to do it yourself.) | 12:24 |
| thorwil | godbyk: i do that myself sometime later | 12:24 |
| godbyk | thorwil: Okay, cool. Thanks! | 12:25 |
| godbyk | (I only ask because I know that somebody will inevitably freak if they see a 10.04 title page on the maverick draft PDF.) | 12:25 |
| thorwil | godbyk: so the branch is ready, cleaned up and the templates are all there? | 12:26 |
| godbyk | thorwil: yeah, I wiped the maverick branch and created a brand new one. | 12:26 |
| godbyk | then I copied over the .tex files and svgs from the lucid-e2 branch. | 12:26 |
| nisshh | oh that reminds me... | 12:28 |
| nisshh | godbyk: we are going to need a title page for the dev manual soon | 12:29 |
| godbyk | nisshh: thorwil's your man! :-) | 12:29 |
| godbyk | (you can thank me later, thorwil!) | 12:29 |
| nisshh | hahaha | 12:29 |
| nisshh | thorwil: are you willing to create a title page for the dev manual? | 12:29 |
| thorwil | nisshh: rather not | 12:32 |
| nisshh | thorwil: <puppy eyes> please? </puppy eyes> | 12:33 |
| * godbyk suspects thorwil has suddenly become more of a cat person. | 12:34 | |
| nisshh | hehe | 12:34 |
| thorwil | lol. i have always been more of a cat person :) | 12:34 |
| * nisshh hands thorwil a cat over irc | 12:35 | |
| nisshh | how about now? | 12:35 |
| * thorwil sees the operation fail as the cat claws nisshh | 12:35 | |
| nisshh | your so cruel thorwil :) | 12:36 |
| nisshh | thorwil: ok, so you wont do it? | 12:36 |
| thorwil | nisshh: do you see a way how the same icon approach could work? | 12:38 |
| nisshh | thorwil: your suggesting using the title page already created for the dev manual as well? | 12:38 |
| thorwil | nisshh: it's worth a thought. what's the title? | 12:39 |
| nisshh | thorwil: Ubuntu Developer Manual | 12:40 |
| nisshh | thorwil: the icons would look kind of out of place, i was planning on using some more appropriate ones | 12:41 |
| thorwil | nisshh: of course. that would be the idea | 12:41 |
| nisshh | yea | 12:41 |
| godbyk | there's a cricket in my room that won't SHUT UP! | 12:41 |
| nisshh | hehe | 12:41 |
| godbyk | finally.. he's quiet now. wonder how long it'll last. | 12:42 |
| nisshh | godbyk: i know how you feel, my motherboard has a habit of making my computer case rattle REALLY LOUDLY | 12:43 |
| nisshh | all the time | 12:43 |
| nisshh | godbyk: i estimate about 40 seconds | 12:43 |
| godbyk | I think I've startled it into silence for a bit. | 12:44 |
| godbyk | Oh, great. Apparently, there's now a debate on the text justification issue. thorwil, make it all go away! :) | 12:44 |
| nisshh | godbyk: it probably saw you and thought "oh shit, he is looking at me weird" | 12:45 |
| godbyk | frak.. the cricket's chirping again. | 12:45 |
| godbyk | So the answer is: 3 minutes. | 12:45 |
| nisshh | lucky i didnt bet anything | 12:46 |
| godbyk | This may be a more irksome version of The Tell-Tale Heart. | 12:47 |
| nisshh | thorwil: sorry to bother you (again) but you didnt actually tell me if you were going to do it or not :) | 12:48 |
| thorwil | nisshh: my "rather not" still stands | 12:50 |
| nisshh | thorwil: ok, ill either find someone more willing, or ill try it myself, thanks anyway dude :) | 12:51 |
| thorwil | nisshh: in any case, you could go through the same thought process that got as the getting started title page. think of possible motives, be it a new set of icons, or something else | 12:51 |
| thorwil | nisshh: if you can present something i can build on, it will become much more likely taht i do the rest | 12:52 |
| nisshh | thorwil: good idea | 12:53 |
| nisshh | ok | 12:53 |
| * nisshh starts thinking | 12:53 | |
| nisshh | thorwil: so if i get all the required stuff like title, other text, icons, etc you MIGHT be happy to just blend it together for me? | 12:54 |
| thorwil | yeah | 12:54 |
| nisshh | ok | 12:56 |
| godbyk | thorwil: I'll let them duke out the icons stuff. I'm headed to bed. :) | 13:45 |
| thorwil | godbyk: icons stuff? | 13:46 |
| godbyk | thorwil: in #ubuntu-meeting. | 13:46 |
| thorwil | godbyk: you want to leave such a productive discussion? ;) have a nice dream | 13:47 |
| godbyk | thorwil: It's pretty hard to tear myself away. ;-) | 13:50 |

| flan | jenkins needs more being-around. | 18:48 |
| * flan needs to know what interfaces need to be implemented. | 18:48 | |
| === mrjazzcat is now known as mrjazzcat-afk | ||
| thorwil | godbyk: we had it easy with font selection: http://www.underconsideration.com/brandnew/archives/type_is_in_the_details.php | 19:38 |
| jenkins | flan: have you contacted sampath ? | 19:39 |
| flan | I have. | 19:39 |
| flan | No response. | 19:39 |
| jenkins | k thanks we shall wait and see | 19:41 |
| flan | Can you remind me which ways a user will have to choose a project? | 19:42 |
| flan | There's loading a .qsproj file, entering a project URL directly... | 19:42 |
| flan | Was there anything else? Aside from accessing a recently opened project, which is just a special case of entering a URL directly./ | 19:43 |
| jenkins | I have not done loading yet. I thought the main server was going to act as a list as well | 19:49 |
| flan | That's just a special case of qsproj, once we've got it working. | 19:49 |
| flan | I'm just wondering for my purposes, for the interface module I'll need to hand to you very soon. | 19:49 |
| flan | Basically, I'll just have you call "load_qsproj(path_to_file/url)" or "load_url(url)". | 19:50 |
| flan | And have it return a session object or raise an exception. | 19:51 |
| flan | Other arguments, like username and working language and stuff, will be needed, of course. | 19:51 |
| jenkins | sounds good to me :) | 19:53 |
| flan | Yay. | 19:54 |
| flan | I'm still on track to have that for you by sometime on your Saturday. | 19:54 |
| jenkins | wow thats great I will get learning | 19:54 |
| flan | With all server functionality on Sunday. | 19:54 |
| flan | So I can help you next week. | 19:54 |
| flan | I've got someone who can help tweak the UI, appearance-wise, while we make the internals function, if we need him. | 19:55 |
| jenkins | and I am off all next week so lots of time | 19:55 |
| jenkins | that also sounds good | 19:55 |
| jenkins | be back later | 20:16 |
| flan | It's safe to assume anyone authoring documentation in the F/OSS world has something than can handle CSV, right? | 21:48 |
| flan | (I have Quickshot generating a list of people who've uploaded screenshots as a CSV file) | 21:48 |
| === mrjazzcat-afk is now known as mrjazzcat | ||
| flan | jenkins, CSV seems like it should be a universally viable format for transporting simple tabular report-data, right? | 22:09 |
| jenkins | yep makes sense to me just read wikipedia | 22:10 |
| flan | I'm lazy. tl;dr me. | 22:10 |
| flan | I implemented contributor reports using CSV and just wanted to make sure nobody'd object. | 22:11 |
| flan | But the channel is silent. | 22:11 |
| flan | Kinda strange, considering how near the writing freeze happens to be. | 22:11 |
| jenkins | yep it is strange but unfortunatly most of us have jobs :(] | 22:12 |
| flan | You people and your gainful employment. | 22:12 |
| jenkins | I am enjoying my job but it does make me tired. I will get use to it. When I get back to uni I will have some time | 22:14 |
| flan | Mine needs less-legacy. | 22:14 |
| flan | Why can't programmers program? D: | 22:15 |
| flan | Yay. Just two more variables to define and then stuff to compile-test and then I can convince myself that there's no way I could do anything productive in the remaining thirty minutes and write another QS client-interface component. | 22:17 |
