[01:23] hi all [01:23] if I had some time this weekend to do a bit of writing, would there be anything useful that I could write for 11.04 desktop documentation? [02:11] rickspencer3: hi [02:11] hi jbicha [02:13] rickspencer3: We still need more content written to explain how to use Unity, have you used Mallard before? [02:13] jbicha, yeah, I've written in that format, if that's what you mean [02:13] for Quickly docs [02:13] I just write the XML tags in Gedit [02:13] pretty crude, but that's how I do it ;) [02:14] oh ok, I think most of us use Gedit [02:14] :) [02:14] jbicha, is there like a list of topics where i can pick a couple to work on? [02:15] whatever will hlep out [02:16] j1mc who has been leading this sprint posted this: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-doc/2011-April/015535.html [02:16] * rickspencer3 looks [02:17] or you could check out our latest source from https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-doc/gnome-user-docs/natty and convert some of the Gnome Shell stuff over to Unity [02:17] jbicha, cool stuff [02:18] ok, I'll check it out tomorrow and see if there's somewhere I can help out [02:18] so either writing new pages from scratch or tweaking the existing stuff would be a big help [02:18] rickspencer3: thanks for stopping by! [02:18] jbicha, thank *you* [02:19] jbicha, I'll check this out tomorrow, but I'll probably stop back in before I start actually working on anything [14:07] * issyl0 just committed some changes to https://code.launchpad.net/~issyl0/ubuntu-docs/issyl0 - I thought that was the easiest way of doing things (i.e. finding my feet in the project), as I don't have commit access to the main branch. [18:02] jbicha, hi [18:02] looking at the branch yesterday, it appeared that if I wrote something along the lines of: [18:03] 1. this is the dash, this is how it works [18:03] 2. this is the launcher, this is how it works [18:03] etc... [18:03] that would be helpful [18:03] however, I'm not 100% certain this hasn't been done, I suspect maybe I just didn't see it? [23:48] rickspencer3: hi, are you still there? I was offline for a few hours [23:48] hi jbicha [23:48] I was just about to leave, actually [23:48] :) [23:48] so, shall I writet an overview? [23:49] I could probably knock that out tomorrow [23:49] yes, unity-introduction is what we have so far but I don't believe anyone is working on it atm [23:50] jbicha, ok, I'll write an overview of the places, launcher, and multiple desktops [23:50] what you do with them, and how you do it [23:50] if nothing else, it could be fodder that could be carved up for other topics if I do it wrong [23:51] yes, that would be a big help as we're especially lacking on the Unity-specific overview topics [23:55] ok [23:56] I'll go for it this weekend and ping you all back when I'm done [23:56] thanks jbicha
