[12:17] <godbyk> Hey, thorwil.  Do you think you'll stick to the same title page for the Maverick edition or design something new?
[12:21] <thorwil> godbyk: same design, unless i stumble over a magically hidden time slot and can then design something better :)
[12:23] <godbyk> thorwil: Duly noted. :)
[12:24] <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
[12:25] <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.)
[12:26] <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.
[12:28] <nisshh> oh that reminds me...
[12:29] <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?
[12:32] <thorwil> nisshh: rather not
[12:33] <nisshh> thorwil: <puppy eyes> please? </puppy eyes>
[12:34]  * 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 :)
[12:35]  * 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 
[12:36] <nisshh> your so cruel thorwil :)
[12:36] <nisshh> thorwil: ok, so you wont do it?
[12:38] <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?
[12:39] <thorwil> nisshh: it's worth a thought. what's the title?
[12:40] <nisshh> thorwil: Ubuntu Developer Manual
[12:41] <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
[12:42] <godbyk> finally.. he's quiet now.  wonder how long it'll last.
[12:43] <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
[12:44] <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!  :)
[12:45] <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.
[12:46] <nisshh> lucky i didnt bet anything
[12:47] <godbyk> This may be a more irksome version of The Tell-Tale Heart.
[12:48] <nisshh> thorwil: sorry to bother you (again) but you didnt actually tell me if you were going to do it or not :)
[12:50] <thorwil> nisshh: my "rather not" still stands
[12:51] <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
[12:52] <thorwil> nisshh: if you can present something i can build on, it will become much more likely taht i do the rest
[12:53] <nisshh> thorwil: good idea
[12:53] <nisshh> ok
[12:53]  * nisshh starts thinking
[12:54] <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
[12:56] <nisshh> ok
[13:45] <godbyk> thorwil: I'll let them duke out the icons stuff. I'm headed to bed. :)
[13:46] <thorwil> godbyk: icons stuff?
[13:46] <godbyk> thorwil: in #ubuntu-meeting.
[13:47] <thorwil> godbyk: you want to leave such a productive discussion? ;)  have a nice dream
[13:50] <godbyk> thorwil: It's pretty hard to tear myself away. ;-)
[18:48] <flan> jenkins needs more being-around.
[18:48]  * flan needs to know what interfaces need to be implemented.
[19:38] <thorwil> godbyk: we had it easy with font selection: http://www.underconsideration.com/brandnew/archives/type_is_in_the_details.php
[19:39] <jenkins> flan: have you contacted sampath ?
[19:39] <flan> I have.
[19:39] <flan> No response.
[19:41] <jenkins> k thanks we shall wait and see
[19:42] <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...
[19:43] <flan> Was there anything else? Aside from accessing a recently opened project, which is just a special case of entering a URL directly./
[19:49] <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.
[19:50] <flan> Basically, I'll just have you call "load_qsproj(path_to_file/url)" or "load_url(url)".
[19:51] <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.
[19:53] <jenkins> sounds good to me :)
[19:54] <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.
[19:55] <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
[20:16] <jenkins> be back later
[21:48] <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)
[22:09] <flan> jenkins, CSV seems like it should be a universally viable format for transporting simple tabular report-data, right?
[22:10] <jenkins> yep makes sense to me just read wikipedia
[22:10] <flan> I'm lazy. tl;dr me.
[22:11] <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.
[22:12] <jenkins> yep it is strange but unfortunatly most of us have jobs :(]
[22:12] <flan> You people and your gainful employment.
[22:14] <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.
[22:15] <flan> Why can't programmers program? D:
[22:17] <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.
