=== mrjazzcat is now known as mrjazzcat-afk [12:17] Hey, thorwil. Do you think you'll stick to the same title page for the Maverick edition or design something new? [12:21] godbyk: same design, unless i stumble over a magically hidden time slot and can then design something better :) [12:23] thorwil: Duly noted. :) [12:24] 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] godbyk: i do that myself sometime later [12:25] thorwil: Okay, cool. Thanks! [12:25] (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] godbyk: so the branch is ready, cleaned up and the templates are all there? [12:26] thorwil: yeah, I wiped the maverick branch and created a brand new one. [12:26] then I copied over the .tex files and svgs from the lucid-e2 branch. [12:28] oh that reminds me... [12:29] godbyk: we are going to need a title page for the dev manual soon [12:29] nisshh: thorwil's your man! :-) [12:29] (you can thank me later, thorwil!) [12:29] hahaha [12:29] thorwil: are you willing to create a title page for the dev manual? [12:32] nisshh: rather not [12:33] thorwil: please? [12:34] * godbyk suspects thorwil has suddenly become more of a cat person. [12:34] hehe [12:34] lol. i have always been more of a cat person :) [12:35] * nisshh hands thorwil a cat over irc [12:35] how about now? [12:35] * thorwil sees the operation fail as the cat claws nisshh [12:36] your so cruel thorwil :) [12:36] thorwil: ok, so you wont do it? [12:38] nisshh: do you see a way how the same icon approach could work? [12:38] thorwil: your suggesting using the title page already created for the dev manual as well? [12:39] nisshh: it's worth a thought. what's the title? [12:40] thorwil: Ubuntu Developer Manual [12:41] thorwil: the icons would look kind of out of place, i was planning on using some more appropriate ones [12:41] nisshh: of course. that would be the idea [12:41] yea [12:41] there's a cricket in my room that won't SHUT UP! [12:41] hehe [12:42] finally.. he's quiet now. wonder how long it'll last. [12:43] godbyk: i know how you feel, my motherboard has a habit of making my computer case rattle REALLY LOUDLY [12:43] all the time [12:43] godbyk: i estimate about 40 seconds [12:44] I think I've startled it into silence for a bit. [12:44] Oh, great. Apparently, there's now a debate on the text justification issue. thorwil, make it all go away! :) [12:45] godbyk: it probably saw you and thought "oh shit, he is looking at me weird" [12:45] frak.. the cricket's chirping again. [12:45] So the answer is: 3 minutes. [12:46] lucky i didnt bet anything [12:47] This may be a more irksome version of The Tell-Tale Heart. [12:48] thorwil: sorry to bother you (again) but you didnt actually tell me if you were going to do it or not :) [12:50] nisshh: my "rather not" still stands [12:51] thorwil: ok, ill either find someone more willing, or ill try it myself, thanks anyway dude :) [12:51] 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] nisshh: if you can present something i can build on, it will become much more likely taht i do the rest [12:53] thorwil: good idea [12:53] ok [12:53] * nisshh starts thinking [12:54] 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] yeah [12:56] ok [13:45] thorwil: I'll let them duke out the icons stuff. I'm headed to bed. :) [13:46] godbyk: icons stuff? [13:46] thorwil: in #ubuntu-meeting. [13:47] godbyk: you want to leave such a productive discussion? ;) have a nice dream [13:50] thorwil: It's pretty hard to tear myself away. ;-) === mrjazzcat-afk is now known as mrjazzcat [18:48] jenkins needs more being-around. [18:48] * flan needs to know what interfaces need to be implemented. === mrjazzcat is now known as mrjazzcat-afk [19:38] godbyk: we had it easy with font selection: http://www.underconsideration.com/brandnew/archives/type_is_in_the_details.php [19:39] flan: have you contacted sampath ? [19:39] I have. [19:39] No response. [19:41] k thanks we shall wait and see [19:42] Can you remind me which ways a user will have to choose a project? [19:42] There's loading a .qsproj file, entering a project URL directly... [19:43] Was there anything else? Aside from accessing a recently opened project, which is just a special case of entering a URL directly./ [19:49] I have not done loading yet. I thought the main server was going to act as a list as well [19:49] That's just a special case of qsproj, once we've got it working. [19:49] I'm just wondering for my purposes, for the interface module I'll need to hand to you very soon. [19:50] Basically, I'll just have you call "load_qsproj(path_to_file/url)" or "load_url(url)". [19:51] And have it return a session object or raise an exception. [19:51] Other arguments, like username and working language and stuff, will be needed, of course. [19:53] sounds good to me :) [19:54] Yay. [19:54] I'm still on track to have that for you by sometime on your Saturday. [19:54] wow thats great I will get learning [19:54] With all server functionality on Sunday. [19:54] So I can help you next week. [19:55] I've got someone who can help tweak the UI, appearance-wise, while we make the internals function, if we need him. [19:55] and I am off all next week so lots of time [19:55] that also sounds good [20:16] be back later [21:48] It's safe to assume anyone authoring documentation in the F/OSS world has something than can handle CSV, right? [21:48] (I have Quickshot generating a list of people who've uploaded screenshots as a CSV file) === mrjazzcat-afk is now known as mrjazzcat [22:09] jenkins, CSV seems like it should be a universally viable format for transporting simple tabular report-data, right? [22:10] yep makes sense to me just read wikipedia [22:10] I'm lazy. tl;dr me. [22:11] I implemented contributor reports using CSV and just wanted to make sure nobody'd object. [22:11] But the channel is silent. [22:11] Kinda strange, considering how near the writing freeze happens to be. [22:12] yep it is strange but unfortunatly most of us have jobs :(] [22:12] You people and your gainful employment. [22:14] 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] Mine needs less-legacy. [22:15] Why can't programmers program? D: [22:17] 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. === mrjazzcat is now known as mrjazzcat-afk
