nigelbdaviey asked me to talk to you15:33
jcastrohttp://summit.ubuntu.com/uds-n/15:34
jcastroworking on it now15:34
nigelbjcastro: no, the uds.ubuntu.com/tracks page is what I'm talking about15:34
nigelbit isn't on LP :(15:34
jcastrowhat do you mean not on lp?15:34
nigelbjcastro: it is?15:34
nigelbwhere?15:34
jcastroI don't understand the question15:35
jcastrooh, you want to modify the CSS for that page?15:35
nigelbjcastro: http://uds.ubuntu.com/tracks/ the css is broken, how can I help fix it?15:35
czajkowskialoha15:35
jcastroI am not sure, we're using whatever wordpress template we got from somewhere15:35
jcastrojono would know, he set that up but I am running it15:35
nigelbif you can give me the code, I'll fix it for ya15:35
jcastroI will ask him15:35
jcastroI have wp admin privs15:36
jcastrois that enough?15:36
nigelbnope, need ftp access I think15:36
jcastrooh15:36
jcastroI dunno anything about that, I will ask15:36
jcastroI think we have one theme for all ubuntu wp instances?15:36
AlanBellwp-admin might be enough15:36
nigelbAlanBell: yeah? /me doesn't do wordpress that much15:36
jcastrooh15:37
AlanBellif the user wp is running under (www-data probably) has write access to the theme files then they can be poked about with in the integrated theme editor15:37
jcastroi think I found it15:37
jcastroyep15:37
nigelboh yay15:37
jcastroit appears to be the Loco light theme15:38
jcastrohttp://launchpad.net/wordpress-loco15:38
nigelbbut this particular sytle seems to be applied inline15:38
jcastrois the URL in the theme15:38
nigelbI suspect hardcoding15:38
jcastroah15:38
nigelbAlanBell: thoughts?15:38
jcastroit's using div loco-columns15:38
nigelbjcastro: yes, but style is inline, do you see it applied inline?15:39
jcastrono15:40
jcastroit's just some h3's and ul''s15:40
nigelbcan you give me access to view content or something for 10 mins?15:40
nigelb(or copy paste the html source someplace for me?)15:40
jcastroyeah15:41
jcastrohttp://pastebin.ubuntu.com/499756/15:41
jcastrothat's all it is15:41
* nigelb facepalms15:41
nigelbwhere is that inline style coming from :(15:41
nigelbjcastro: do you have some time to play around with it?15:44
AlanBelloh, I see, the grey loco-columns box should contain the li bits15:45
nigelbAlanBell: its supposed to contain all the bits? I thought only the headings15:46
AlanBellthat might be a bit tricky to arrange15:47
nigelbAlanBell: a bit of hard-coding needed15:47
AlanBellum, quick fix that won't break other stuff that uses the loco-columns class would be to add an inline style with a height declaration15:47
nigelband also set height for h315:48
AlanBellso something like <div class="loco-columns" style="height:15em;">15:48
nigelbwow, how did you get the em's right? :)15:48
AlanBellfirebug ftw15:48
nigelbhaha, I calculated 45px15:48
jonohey all15:49
nigelbheya jono15:49
jonojcastro, I forgot to mention, I am not going to be able to make the UDS planning call as I am on holiday today recording solos15:49

jcastroI think we got it sorted15:50
jonowhat SQL?15:50
jcastroto make summit work15:50
nigelbAlanBell: the effect I thought was: http://imagebin.org/11550215:50
jcastroto add the time slots, etc.15:50
jcastroI think it's almost ready though15:51
jonojcastro, ok thanks15:51
jcastrothe "sigh" is because I hate computers today15:51
jonojcastro, ahhh ok15:51
jcastro(more than normal)15:51
jonoso long as everything is OK15:51
jcastrowe'll find out on monday when summit is a molten slag! Mwahahahaha15:51
jcastrowith that note, some caffeine for me15:51
AlanBellnigelb: ah, I see. I try not to use pixel heights when it is supposed to line up with the height of a font, I think ems scale with the font15:52
nigelbAlanBell: let me try to use em to get that effect15:53
nigelbAlanBell: 4em for the style and 3 em for the h3 seems to work okay.15:54
nigelbjcastro: so, I got a fix for you.15:54
AlanBellagreed, but will that break h3 anywhere else?15:54
scott-workjcastro: tonight i will talk with my wife about taking a slot for ubuntu studio in open week,  i need to make sure i can block out the time and there are no other plans15:54
nigelbAlanBell: should override css on that page15:54
jcastrono worries15:54
jcastroscott-work: anyone from your project can do it15:54
jcastroit doesn't have to be YOU per se15:54
AlanBellnigelb: ok, that sounds safe15:55
jcastronigelb: pastebin it somewhere15:55
nigelbjcastro: will do15:56
jcastronigelb: be back in 8 minutes, then I'll post it15:56

AlanBelldo both in the style block15:59
nigelbjcastro: the div thing, you'll have to do twice15:59
nigelbohh, I didn't know that15:59
AlanBellhttp://pastebin.ubuntu.com/499767/16:01
nigelbAlanBell: ah, that16:01

Technovikingjcastro: I apoligize for that discussion, the forums folk were far to rude.16:27
jcastroit's ok, I've been on the forums for 6 years, I can handle them16:27
TechnovikingLP needs a system to flag comments as approicate16:28

jcastrodunno, I have no clue what my U1 clients are doing at any given time16:55
duanedesignjcastro: have you seen magicicada? It is a GUI for the syncdaemon. Shows a lot more info16:58

jcastroPendulum: it won't be that many rooms18:25
jcastrothey just haven't decided which are ours and which are linaros18:25
jcastroso I figure add them all now18:25
jcastroeasier to delete later than add them a week before18:25
Pendulumjcastro: yeah, definitely. it's more the fact that most of them are the same base name with the number after them18:26
jcastroyeah18:27
jcastroI am kind of hoping for just like boinaire 1-818:27
jcastrothat way we can just use numbers and not care about the name18:27

jcastroakgraner: that calendar looks jawesome19:08
akgranerthanks! I tried to make sure it was all in place :-)19:08
akgraneryou and jono should have an email that was just sent to all the session leads19:09
jcastroI saw19:09
akgranerthere are a few people I don't have email address for or couldn't find an LP page for19:09
akgranerI'll email you so you can forward it to them if you don't mind19:10
AlanBellakgraner: what level of lernid use are we going for?19:10
akgranerAlanBell, we aren't pushing lernid this time19:10
AlanBellok, does that mean don't do slides?19:10
akgranerif people are familiar with it we are going to make sure it is available19:10
akgraneryou can if you want - lernid will be available19:10
akgranerbut I was told since it is not maintained then not to tell people to use it - if they already know about it and want to use it to let people know it will be available19:11
AlanBelllernid is not maintained?19:11
akgranerThat's what I was just told by nigelb19:12
akgranerwell earlier today - I missed the classroom meeting on Wednesday where it was discussed19:12
akgranerso they wanted me to know not to push lernid this time :-/19:12
duanedesignjcastro: qrcode works :)19:24
duanedesignAlanBell: i know [n]handler was working on a Lernid bug. He is , self admittingly, not a Python developer so i imagine they are in need of some python peeps to show the package some attention19:31
doctormoduanedesign: Any specific bugs need help with?19:33
duanedesigndoctormo: i was just trying to figure that out :)19:38
doctormoduanedesign: I will fix one python bug for you :-)19:43
duanedesigndoctormo: i just started a new project. I read the post on the Planet about 'password cards'. The author mentioned it was not open source. So I thought I would make one19:46
duanedesigndoctormo: i pinged nathan to find out about lernid. I know one bug he was working on was bug 53327919:47
ubot2Launchpad bug 533279 in lernid (Ubuntu) (and 1 other project) "Remove need for .lernid configuration files (affects: 2) (heat: 14)" [Undecided,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/53327919:47
doctormoduanedesign: If he's working on it already what should I do?19:54
PendulumAlanBell: no one has heard from the maintainer for lernid in months so, yes, it's pretty much unmaintained now19:55
AlanBellmust . . . not . . . volunteer19:56
doctormoAlanBell: lol, it's a controversial bug IMO. Not only is it really 4 bugs rolled into one, but it's swapping out a flat file with fields for proprietary online services. (yea ok ical can be served from anything, but we're using google calendar for this.) Real solution: steal some loco directory code and make a _very_ simple single use form website which can add events which generate the lernid confs and the icals.19:58
AlanBelldoctormo: yeah, first bug filed against lernid, by me20:00
doctormoActually it's so small I'd be willing to use it as an example to teach some aspiring person how to make django/python websites. It's technical mostly copy and paste anyway.20:00
doctormoForget front facing, we'll just use the django admin interface, which kills all css and html requirements. Next use existing code, 4) profit!20:01
jcastroanyone know what's up with fullcircle's feed on planet?20:52
jcastrogood idea getting them on there (whoevers it was)20:53
akgranerok I'm outta here for this evening - gotta go play band mom :-) Have a good weekend y'all!21:01
