nigelbRonnie: hey13:02
Ronniehey nigelb13:03
nigelbRonnie: need some help with the flickr-jquery plugin, you got a minute?13:03
Ronniei have 2 if you want :P13:03
nigelbI'm trying to get the title to say "image title by photographer"13:03
nigelbso, right now we just say the title for the loco directory flickr images13:03
nigelb"technically" we're supposed to attribute the pictures13:04
nigelbRonnie: I'm fairly sure this plugin was written by you ^-^ :)13:04
Ronnieim looking into the code now. and yes its written by me13:05
nigelbheh :)13:06
Ronnienigelb: have a look at line 40 and 43 of the flickr script13:06
RonnierPhoto is the json returned from flicker (which should contain the attribution)13:07
nigelbRonnie: Well, it does, but it has the idgettr.13:07
nigelbSo our option is to use that and query flickr again to get the real name for that id13:08
nigelb(that's where I'm stuck)13:08
nigelbThe calls are being made alright in my code, but it doesn't work because of when the calls are being made.13:08
Ronniehmm, can you already give a diff of what you made?13:08
nigelbDisclaimer: I write hacky JS :D13:08
nigelbRonnie: http://pastebin.ca/206679113:10
nigelboh, you have to get phototitle assigned.  I guess I deleted that line at some point in frustration :p13:11
nigelb"phototitle = rPhoto.title + ' by ' + realnameof;"13:12
Ronnienigelb: do you have firebug?13:16
nigelbRonnie: yes, I do. I would never write JS without firebug :)13:16
Ronnienigelb: i think you need to add a context to the request: http://api.jquery.com/jQuery.ajax/#jQuery-ajax-settings13:23
* nigelb looks13:23
Ronniethe context should be the link DOM element13:23
Ronnieso you cant use the getJSON, but you have to write $.ajax()13:23
nigelbah.13:24
Ronniei see no other option at the moment13:26
nigelbugh, I hate JS :/13:30
Ronnienigelb: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hQVTIJBZook13:31
RonnieJavaScript: The Good Parts   13:31
nigelbheh13:31
nigelbRonnie: I used to write JS until like 4 months ago.  Totally out of touch now :(13:31
Ronniethe movie (and other examples of douglas crockford) made me write better javascript, and learned to like it. before i hated js too13:33
nigelbokay, I'm about to destroy my keyboard in frustration.13:34
nigelbI'll just postpone this for later.13:34
czajkowskihttp://www.lczajkowski.com/2011/05/22/how-natty-cds-are-distributed-in-the-ubuntu-ie-loco/13:38

nigelbRonnie: I'm going through that video13:43
AlanBellczajkowski: some teams have CDs already??14:10
pleia2the california cds arrived while I was still at uds14:11
pleia2on the 12th14:11
AlanBellI heard nothing14:11
czajkowskiAlanBell: yeah a week after release is now standard 14:12
czajkowskiAlanBell: you did request them right?14:12
AlanBellI had no clue they had gone out14:12
AlanBelland yes, I did request them14:12
czajkowskias soon as it's released they go to print 14:13
AlanBellhuh14:13
czajkowskishiped out now in a week 14:13
czajkowskirare it's over 2 tbh 14:13
czajkowskiunless there are some issues with counteries which we do get from time to time 14:13
AlanBellyeah, well I don't think that applies14:13
czajkowskiindeed....14:13
AlanBellDaviey: you haven't got them have you?14:13
* AlanBell is mildly annoyed14:17
czajkowskipleia2: nice comment 14:17
czajkowskiAlanBell: wwhy14:17
AlanBellthat the way I found out the CDs had gone out was a post detailing what another team had already done with theirs14:18
AlanBelltghere was no email to loco contacts or something saying the CDs had been pressed and were being dispatched14:19
AlanBellwould have followed up weeks ago if I had any idea14:19
czajkowskiAlanBell: there never is14:20
czajkowskithere was the mail sent out before saying send in requests14:20
AlanBellyeah, I was waiting patiently14:20
AlanBelland I did get the request in14:21
czajkowskiyeah but there is never a mail saying they are p[rinted and going out14:22
czajkowskii dont want to make work for people behind shippit either 14:23
AlanBellI didn't even see anyone saying "yay our CDs have arrived"14:24
czajkowskisome people don't....14:24
czajkowskishrugs14:24
AlanBellgah, so what is the procedure for ordering CDs?14:40
AlanBellin the /topic there is stuff about sending an email14:40
AlanBellI didn't do that14:40
AlanBellhttps://forms.canonical.com/lococd/14:40
AlanBellthat is what I did14:40
AlanBelldid anyone else here fill out the form and not send the email and get the CDs?14:41
czajkowskithe form was the new way to go as far as i know14:59
AlanBelljust sent a mail to info@shipit.ubuntu.com to find out what is up15:17
czajkowskiokie dokie 15:18
AlanBellhttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/LoCoGettingCds needs some love15:19
AlanBellmentions Maverick and doesn't link to the web form at all15:20
AlanBelland I have a sneaking suspicion that the teams that got CDs are the ones that failed to notice the updated procedure and web form15:20
czajkowskiAlanBell: the webform as far as I know is the new wya forward and which was why we mailed loco contacts15:25
czajkowskibut talking with canonical folks this week and will follow up on it 15:26
czajkowskithe web form was the way we communicated it via the ml and blog 15:26
czajkowskitwitter/identit.ca 15:26
AlanBelldid ie use the web form or send an email?15:30
czajkowskilet me go and see 15:31
czajkowskiI'm not the team contact 15:32
AlanBellyup15:32
AlanBellhttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/LoCoGettingCds is linked in the /topic btw15:33
