| ScottL | reading troy_s' latest blog post i am reminded that i could have handled the website development much better :/ | 00:03 |
|---|---|---|
| ScottL | but i hope to learn from the experience (and his blog posts) and manage the next situation in a better fashion :) | 00:05 |
| persia | If you aren't learning, it gets boring fast :) | 00:08 |
| ScottL | i agree persia about primary and alternate solutions | 00:30 |
| ScottL | i just learned about "jack sessions" last week, i wonder if we should be supporting it as we are with lashd in natty? | 02:31 |
| ScottL | or should we choose one over the other? | 02:31 |
| ScottL | and what we would need to do if we choose to support "jack sessions" | 02:31 |
| persia | We probably ought involve ourselves in wider discussions so that we can have one method that users use to save full status of their work. | 02:33 |
| persia | Could be jack sessions triggering lashd saves, or lashd saving the current jack session, or something else entirely. | 02:34 |
| ScottL | how wide? i would imagine this could include more than the ubuntu studio or ubuntu communities | 02:36 |
| persia | I think it probably needs discussion at the l-a-d@ level. | 02:37 |
| ScottL | right, that seems entirely sane | 02:37 |
| persia | From a quick glance at archives, seems there was some discussion on the topic from June. | 02:38 |
| persia | And I think that upstream is being sane about this sort of thing, but it may need some work, especially in terms of integrating patches into the applications. | 02:39 |
| persia | http://trac.jackaudio.org/wiki/WalkThrough/Dev/JackSession and http://trac.jackaudio.org/wiki/WalkThrough/User/jack_session keep failing to load for me, but are probably reasonable resources. | 02:41 |
| ScottL | stochastic, dave phillips discussed some recent news about xjadeo http://www.linuxjournal.com/content/ecology-ardour | 02:41 |
| * persia hugs uzbl for loading all sorts of random stuff that doesn't work with regular browsers | 02:42 | |
| ScottL | persia, those are the pages i read last week, i had no idea about jack sessions until i read those | 02:42 |
| ScottL | dave phillips also reports that blender is working on JACK support :) | 02:43 |
| persia | Looks a bit immature for natty, to me, but maybe we'll reach sufficient coverage before natty+1 that it would make sense to target doing local patches for the more important apps still unsupported. | 02:44 |
| ScottL | oh yeah, i don't expect this for natty, just pointing it out because i think it's awesome | 02:47 |
| ScottL | persia, which browser are you trying to use to open the jack sessions pages? | 02:48 |
| persia | I was using epiphany. | 02:49 |
| persia | But my quest for a light-weight browser that does what I want is likely to end up with some custom luakit arrangement | 02:52 |
| scott-work | stochastic: i think we may also be able to use wordpress for the website update | 16:21 |
| scott-work | i've noticed many, many new official ubuntu web pages that are "Powered by WordPress", e.g. http://uds.ubuntu.com/ | 16:22 |
| scott-work | persia: i forgot if you had confirmed this or not, do we need to remove the mscore package from the natty seeds and replace it with musescore? | 16:30 |
| scott-work | is there anything else we will need to do? will someone else handle the actual transition package itself? | 16:30 |
| persia | scott-work, Oh, for seeds! Yes, absolutely mscore needs to be removed and musescore placed. The mscore package has to be left in the archive until squeeze release. | 18:16 |
| scott-work | persia: thank you, i'll update my branch of the seeds then | 18:18 |
| stochastic | ScottL, switching themes/layouts within Drupal is an easy task; switching entire cms systems is much more involved. I'm also not familiar with wordpress, so I wouldn't be much help in that situation. | 23:29 |
| stochastic | essentially, my view is that the site runs on drupal, there's nothing that wordpress can do that drupal can't, so there's no purpose to switching | 23:31 |
| persia | I'll argue that there are N things wordpress can do that drupal can't, and vice versa, and neither are important in the slightest: the decision ought be made based on the capabilities of the administrators, rather than for a feature, as it's vanishingly rare that either can't do something that is important for most sites. | 23:32 |
