cdbsHi, as for bug #729074, is it not implemented yet? Or is it implemented but a bug is not making the quicklist come up? I can work on the fix10:35

klattimerdbarth, mpt: I'm thinking about replacing a huge raft of bugs with a single bug for "IDO calendar should have a new calendar widget and not rely on GtkCalendar" as the gtk calendar is causing most of the difficulties with keyboard navigation, focus and interaction10:38
mptklattimer, I agree that a new calendar widget (or at least, calendar code plugged into IDO grid layout) would potentially fix many bugs10:41
klattimeras far as I can tell, I'm just yak shaving trying to find a solution to some of these with the current widget10:42
mptklattimer, I generally find though that bug reports describing solutions are risky. A new calendar widget may fix all those bugs, but it might leave one or two of them unfixed initially.10:42
klattimertrue10:42
klattimerwell, how about I create a new bug report, and reference all of the sub bugs?10:43
mptBug reports centered around solutions, I mean (describing a solution is fine)10:43
klattimerright10:43
mptI'll be delighted to review the existing bug reports when you publish a branch with the new widget. :-)10:45

Davidc_3I'm currently having some difficulties with Python, I've never touched anything more than php and bash and my Place needs to deal with a lot of APIs. Where can I find the best Python doc ever? :)16:10
bbigrasDavidc_3: I have no idea, but maybe you could start with http://docs.python.org/tutorial/index.html . There was also a book 'dive into python' but I'm not sure if it's up-to-date.16:12
stefano-palazzoDavidc_3, bbigras dive into python is up-to-date, and it's brilliant, if you already know _a_ programming language16:14
bbigrasstefano-palazzo: from this site http://diveintopython.org/toc/index.html ? The copyright ends in 2004.16:15
stefano-palazzoDavidc_3, have a look at this: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/19481216:15

stefano-palazzoI love this SO question, it's the first place to look if you want to learn pretty much anything to do with programming16:20
Davidc_3ATM, I'm not hitting walls and Google APIs are fairly easy to use (thanks to your code stefano-palazzo), but when I try to add others APIs, I'm pretty much running in the dark :)16:21
zniavregood afternoon > does launcher panel and icons for globalmenu are hardcoded please ?16:21
zniavrelauncher background **16:21
stefano-palazzoDavidc_3, be careful with the google API, it has hidden dangers :)16:22
Davidc_3stefano-palazzo, like the TOS?16:23
stefano-palazzoI've spend a day converting everything to use the StackExchange API instead. They are deprecating this API, and the successor is pretty expensive16:23
stefano-palazzoPlus _I think_ my code doesn't comply with the ToS16:23
stefano-palazzoWe've also looked into Bing and Yahoo, they're no good either. Bing has an awful contract for you to sign (which doesn't let you do anything with the search results), and yahoo is expensive and unreliable (i.e. they may change their pricing tomorrow)16:25
Davidc_3I'm using the Books and Images APIs, not the search one, AFAIK I'm still in the TOS lines, I hope.16:26
stefano-palazzoOh I think they are fine, it's the search one that they make a lot of money from. You should be okay16:26
stefano-palazzoyou might also want to have a look at the DuckDuckGo.com api. They do a 0-click thing, giving you things like definitions of words, amazon products and lots more16:27

stefano-palazzo_oh jcastro did you get a chance to the the ungooglyfied version?19:58
kenvandinejcastro, please update the daily builds recipe to use lp:~ken-vandine/askubuntu-lens/packaging19:58
kenvandinei think we are finally past the project rename fallout :)19:59
jcastrostefano-palazzo_: I can check it now actually, let me update the recipe and ppa19:59
jcastrostefano-palazzo_: anything to commit to trunk before I fire off a build?19:59

ubot5Ubuntu bug 741861 in AskUbuntu Lens "AskUbuntu.com results are too prominent on the Dash" [Medium,New]20:00
jonostefano-palazzo_, :-)20:00
jcastrois this a lens' job to do that or is that the dash itself?20:00
stefano-palazzo_jcastro, not a clue. It could be either. I suppose kamstrup or kenvandine know more?20:01
kenvandinegood question20:01
kenvandinei don't know how it orders it20:01
stefano-palazzo_also, it's very hard to reproduce, most of the time it works fine. maybe it has to do with how fast results are returned20:01
jcastroyeah20:01
jcastrolike, imagine if you had 5 lenses installed20:01
kenvandineugh20:02
jcastrothe normal dash would become a mess20:02
kenvandinei think the dash should have a pretty well defined list of priorities20:02
kenvandinealthough...20:02
jcastroright20:02
kenvandineit would be cool if it was smart20:02
jcastrostefano-palazzo_: oh cool you landed gravatar support20:02
kenvandinelike usually jorge selects a result from askubuntu lense when he searches20:03
kenvandineso over time give you those first20:03
stefano-palazzo_jcastro, yeah, I did that in an hour or something, really stellar work by the places api people20:03
kenvandinebut if i usually select gwibber posts from the gwibber lense20:03
jcastrorock and roll20:03
kenvandinethose bubble up for me20:03
kenvandineand if someone else clicks on the application launchers most of the time those bubble to the top20:03
* kenvandine is probably dreaming too big :)20:04
kenvandinebut hey, that is what i do :)20:04
stefano-palazzo_jcastro, you will notice, the non-google version is pretty slow (it's close to unusable from my perfectionist perspective). I really need to think of something clever to make that work. It takes more than a second. But let me know if you have any thoughts anyway. It does some things differently20:06
c10udjcastro, this is the wrong place et. al. but i recently run into #402814 and seems like other projects did. i just wanted to ask if you could have some influence on the lp guys and help app devs out :)20:12
jcastroc10ud: it's a high priority thing that I've brought up a bunch of times20:13
c10udi wouldn't normally spam this channel, but it's has been two damn years, and we just need not to except, no need for handling the submodule20:13
jcastrothey're working on it unfortunately it wasn't as simple as I thought it would be20:13
jcastroright, which means without imports we can't do easy daily builds20:13
c10udi tried in the lp-dev channel, but they were very quiet (no response)20:14
c10udyou know, it's not a big deal.. but the recipe feature is really cool and we wanted to try it out :)20:14
jcastroI whine about it on a cron-like basis20:14
c10ud(especially when there's some good guy running his ppa-creation script by hand from his own box hehe)20:14
c10udif i remove the git submodule, $some_hardcore_distro guys won't be happy, if you could tell the devs yet-another-time "please just import without the submodule.. don't throw a failing exception" i would be happy20:16
c10udlol20:16
c10udthanks for your time and sorry for the offtopic20:17
jcastroc10ud: well, at least we got the me menu support in for natty at least, heh20:26
jcastrostefano-palazzo_: do you have anything to commit today? It seems I can't just rebuild with a change in the packaging branch, lp wants a higher revision than 19. :-/20:27
stefano-palazzo_hehe, sure give me a second20:27
stefano-palazzo_we're at 19, right?20:27
jcastroyeah20:28
c10udyeah that's great, but i found out ayatana devs to be usually friendlier than most of the category (i submitted a patch for changing icon paths for indicators from python, and was promptly accepted:))20:29
OmegaI wonder, is there a way to blacklist folders from the dash?20:29
Omega(maybe only hidden folders?)20:29
lamalexc10ud, good to hear!20:29
stefano-palazzo_I'll clean up the code to comply with pep8 guidelines20:29
jcastroOmega: yeah there's a blacklist in zeitgeist20:29
c10ud:D20:29
Omegajcastro: Oh, cool, I thought that only worked for activity journal though.20:30
jcastrowell I added things to the activity journal blacklist20:31
jcastroand it stopped showing up in my dash20:31
OmegaAwesome!20:31
stefano-palazzo_jcastro, okay all done20:31
* jcastro clicks a button20:32
Omegajcastro: How does the blacklist work?20:45
OmegaDo you add folder paths?20:45
jcastroyeah20:47
jcastroI add like file:///path/to/folder20:47

nmarquesit's a part of our GNOME Team projects :)20:52
nmarquesthe main problem to make it available on the distro relies on the GTK2 package20:53
kenvandineyeah :(20:54
nmarquesnot making politial comments on that20:54
nmarquesjust that I find it sad :/ my vision of upstream is that they should be as feature rich as possible20:54
nmarquesit's their game... I'm happy I can at least make this options available to our users :)20:55
nmarquesI have already prepared a GNOME2 Spin with this indicators by default and some other candies20:55
