dpmgood morning all08:37
andrejzmorning08:39
dpmhey andrejz :)08:40
andrejzhey dpm. i talked to some compiz developers. They might move their translations infrastructure to launchpad in the coming days08:48
andrejzi will keep you posted on new developments08:49
dpmandrejz, that'd be really cool. Actually, they approached me a while ago, I answered them and I never got a reply back.08:49
dpmso if you talk to them again, tell them they can contact me if they need any help08:50
andrejzaccording to them they never got a reply from you ;). Maybe it's some sort of miscommunication. I am just glad if it will be done because the current structure is terrebily outdated08:51
andrejzsure i will let them now08:51
andrejzknow08:51
dpmandrejz, weird I replied to them twice, one on their first e-mail and once more last week to ping them because I hadn't got an answer08:52
dpmandrejz, can you give me the e-mail addresses of the people you talked to on a PM and I'll try again?08:52
andrejzi just know what one of the people there told me. i guess it was a simple misunderstanding08:53
andrejzi don't know mails. i chatted on IRC08:53
dpmandrejz, do you remember with whom did you talk to? I guess I can just go to #compiz08:54
andrejzgo to #compiz-dev08:54
dpmok, in there. Who should I ping?08:55
andrejzthere was smspillaz, ixce, coz and some others. i guess it's best to just write it inside and wait for someone to answer08:55
dpmandrejz, ok, will do that then, thanks!08:56
andrejzalways glad to help :)08:56
dpm:)08:56
andrejzdpm: it's great that you went on #compiz-dev as i cannot offer much technical assistance due to lack of deep knowledge of launchpad09:35
dpmandrejz, no worries, thank you for the heads up!09:36
andrejzno problem. I am glad to help, especially since it will make my life much easier as well09:37
dpmyeah :)09:37
andrejzdpm: we are planning to do some sort of translation marathon for global jam. Are you aware of any promtion materials we could use to promote the event09:38
andrejz?09:38
dpmandrejz, you should add your event to the loco directory and promote it in the planet for sure. As per merchandising and so, we tend to send it only for install parties or for special loco requests. You could try asking around on the loco-contacts list. In any case, the approved locos who requested it should have recently got a table cloth and a banner09:43
andrejzthe problem is that we are not approved loco, because there is currently not much activity besides translations as many members are unmotivated /don0't have the time09:45
andrejzbut it will surely be a thing to put more effort in the future09:46
dpmandrejz, sounds good. Even if you are only active in translations, that's quite something already. If you organize regular events such as your translations beers, or install parties, it might be worth applying to become approved. Even if you are not accepted this time, I'm sure you'll learn from it and will get tips from people on how to grow the loco09:54
dpmI need to step back for a bit, bbl09:55

happyarondpm: hi13:28
happyarondpm: I've read your email about simple-scan's translation, it's not a bug.13:28
dpmhey happyaron, ah good - I was just forwarding it in case it was, as I cannot read Chinese :)13:28
happyarondpm: "易" is like "easy", "扫描" is "scan", and "扫描易" means you can scan your things easily13:29
dpmah, right13:29
dpmso where do you think the reporter's confusion came from?13:30
happyarondpm: but "易"'s pronunciation is very similar to "仪", so it could be misunderstood to be a mistranslation of "扫描仪", which means "scanner"13:30
