[18:47] <jenkins> evening all
[19:13] <daker> should we translate lucid-e2 ?
[19:19] <jenkins> I don't see why not
[20:37] <thorwil> godbyk: do you recall why some of the title page SVGs have lining figures and others text figures?
[21:00] <thorwil> godbyk: anyway, pushed title page SVGs with "10.10"
[21:33] <flan> Aww... jenkins didn't respond to my bragging. D:
[22:09] <flan> Did you get my random gloating, jenkins?
[22:09] <flan> Just asking so it doesn't stay in MemoServ forever.
[22:10] <flan> I should have the last two client-library functions written and documented for you by the time you wake up.
[22:11] <jenkins> I did get it thanks flan :) thats brilliant news
[22:11] <flan> I think you'll like the inline quality-conversion/thumbnail-generation features.
[22:12] <flan> They should help with keeping load down for people with closer connections to the server.
[22:12] <flan> slower*
[22:13] <jenkins> that does sound like a good idea, you are very clever fla
[22:13] <jenkins> n
[22:13]  * flan does not deal with flattery well.

[22:14] <flan> quality=0/quality=1..100 for PNG/JPEG. thumbnail=None/thumbnail=(x, y) for scaling.
[22:15] <flan> In case you want to limit the size of the viewport for either the reference or the most recent submission, in the event that the user wants to decide whether they should retake a screenshot.
[22:15] <jenkins> right makes sense
[22:15] <flan> Oh. Also, you can pass a tempfile to the uploader, so I'll be reworking the capture code to do that instead of writing a file to ~/.quickshot.
[22:16] <jenkins> ok I am putting logs in ~/.quickshot so they can go there still if you like
[22:17] <flan> We'll just need to store the reference string in memory when they go to take a screenshot so we can show it to them before and after they actually capture something, rather than have to hit the server twice. (If that fits with your flow)
[22:17] <flan> Oh, I know ~/.quickshot will still exist. I'm just saying we don't need to put a named tempfile in there. Less stuff for the process to manage.
[22:18]  * flan likes minimalism./
[22:18] <jenkins> yep thats cool
[22:26] <flan> Lemme know if you can think of any transformations that might be helpful additions to the image-access stuff.
[22:27] <flan> PIL exposes a lot of power.
[22:27] <jenkins> I will do I can't think of any at the moment
[22:39] <jenkins> hey daker
[22:40] <daker> jenkins, yep
[22:40] <jenkins> hows the quickshot site going?
[22:40] <daker> i need to fix the contact page
[22:40] <flan> We'll probably want to wait until any major bugs have been found during the Maverick test cycle before publishing it.
[22:41] <jenkins> sounds good, do let me/us know if there is any info you need
[22:41] <daker> jenkins, oki
[22:42] <flan> My info's available under red-hamsterx@launchpad or via 'whois uguu.ca'. The later's better for stalking.
[22:42] <daker> who is hosting qs.org ?
[22:42] <flan> Dunno.
[22:42] <flan> godbyk, do you know?
[22:47] <jenkins> I think kevin is
[22:49] <flan> Actually, there's an easy way to check.
[22:49] <flan> Yep.
[22:50] <flan> He's listed as the admin and tech. Someone names Horia Adelean registred it, though.
[22:50] <flan> (whois record)
[22:53] <jenkins> yep basiaclly some one randomly droped by and payed for the domain and told godbyk
[22:53] <flan> Crazy people.
[22:53] <jenkins> well I would thank them if i knew who it wa
[22:54] <jenkins> s
[22:54] <flan> Oh, well. It just means we have a user who cares.
[22:54] <flan> And that's worth a lot, motivation-wise.
[22:54] <jenkins> lol A user :P
[22:54] <flan> Their e-mail address is in the whois result.
[22:54] <flan> We should thank them once we release 1.0.
[22:54] <jenkins> yep
[22:55] <jenkins> whois record
[22:55] <flan> ?
[22:55] <jenkins> don't worry copy and paste error
[22:55] <flan> Only *I* may correct terminology arbitrarily.
[22:55] <flan> You're not nearly enough of an arrogant jerk to do it. =P
[22:55]  * flan arrogant jerk.
[22:56] <jenkins> I can't read I thought "record" was their nick It actually is not :P
[22:57] <flan> Whoa. It's a three-year registration.
[23:04] <jenkins> wow thats well cool
[23:04] <jenkins> how do you find this all out?
[23:04] <flan> whois.
[23:04] <jenkins> has anyone got the htc desire?
[23:05] <flan> New terminal -> "whois quickshot.org"
[23:06] <jenkins> thats great we must contact them]
[23:06] <flan> If you ever need to yell at a (small) ISP over some technical issue, look them up and contact the listed tech -- it'll usually be someone in network operations, which means they're generally well-suited to address your concerns.
[23:06] <flan> Same for most businesses.
[23:07] <godbyk> Yeah, they just stopped buy and bought the domain -- it was the first domain name they'd ever purchased, even.
[23:07] <godbyk> And I don't recall seeing them since.
[23:07] <flan> They must love us. o.o
[23:07] <flan> Me and my weird emoticon-auto-response.
[23:08] <godbyk> Unfortunately, a lot of whois records now just have placeholder info for the contact information. So it's hard to contact people directly.
[23:08] <flan> Hency why I qualified that with 'small'.
[23:08] <godbyk> (It's usually to try to reduce the amount of spam you get -- both electronic mail and snail mail.)
[23:09] <flan> It's a bit harder to get away with placeholder info in Canada.
[23:09] <flan> CIRA demands real contacts.
[23:09] <godbyk> I'm a bit old-fashioned, though, and still trust people now to be mean and prefer to have my contact information readily available.
[23:09] <flan> Same.
[23:09] <godbyk> I think that most registrars require real info, but then a lot of them let you mask that info so it doesn't appear publicly.
[23:10] <flan> This is also true.
[23:10] <godbyk> They assign you some random garbage email address that forwards, etc.
[23:10]  * flan goes home to write more code.
