| GridCube | I for one vote NO to midori until a bookmark bar is available | 01:13 |
|---|---|---|
| === Soupermanito is now known as GridCube | ||
| charlie-tca | GridCube: preferences -> sidebar | 01:42 |
| charlie-tca | turns on bookmarks on the left side | 01:43 |
| charlie-tca | and then, if you want, Preferences -> extensions, bookmarks | 01:43 |
| charlie-tca | adds a start to the taskbar to turn bookmarks on and off | 01:43 |
| charlie-tca | oops | 01:43 |
| charlie-tca | menu -> sidebar | 01:44 |
| charlie-tca | turns bookmarks on | 01:44 |
| GridCube | but sidebar is really anoying :/ | 01:46 |
| charlie-tca | but it is bookmarks | 01:52 |
| charlie-tca | From #xubuntu on June 25: | 01:53 |
| charlie-tca | gNewPower | It is so wonderful to be back to a well designed, rational, desktop manager, file manager, setting application ,etc. Xubuntu is pure joy for me | 01:53 |
| GridCube | :D | 01:58 |
| GridCube | nice | 01:58 |
| GridCube | also trying the last greybird, whit tiny arrows, it is awesome, a lot moew awesome than whitout arrows | 01:58 |
| charlie-tca | Yeah, I been using it too. Not sure the tiny arrows won't become a point of contention, since users might not even see them, but time will tell. | 02:06 |
| charlie-tca | At least now firefox is happy with the scrollbars, which are really neat! | 02:06 |
| GridCube | :D but if there where no arrows then even more people would come saying "Since installing x i've lost the arrows on my windows why?" but now we can tell them, they are there bro | 02:08 |
| charlie-tca | yes, true. Also, firefox doesn't like not having arrows | 02:12 |
| GridCube | yes, ochosi said so, neither does libreoffice | 02:12 |
| charlie-tca | yup | 02:13 |
| charlie-tca | We shall see what happens with it. | 02:13 |
| GridCube | :D | 02:14 |
| mr_pouit | https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/oneiric-changes/2011-June/003569.html maybe we could go back to file-roller then | 12:39 |
| charlie-tca | file-roller in Oneiric recommends gvfs, which should be okay | 14:06 |
| spongedaddy | hello all | 15:37 |
| spongedaddy | in the last meeting there was mention of a need to work on xubuntu documentation. | 15:37 |
| spongedaddy | is there still such a need? | 15:38 |
| spongedaddy | i'd be happy to devote a couple of hours a week to it. | 15:50 |
| charlie-tca | yes, there is | 16:09 |
| charlie-tca | We need to update the areas of https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu to match our current release and applications | 16:09 |
| charlie-tca | We also need to insure our documentation included in the release matches | 16:10 |
| charlie-tca | spongedaddy: do you know how to edit the wiki? | 16:10 |
| spongedaddy | not yet :) | 16:13 |
| charlie-tca | Good time to learn? | 16:13 |
| spongedaddy | seems to be | 16:13 |
| charlie-tca | We use mallard for the documentation, outside the wiki | 16:14 |
| spongedaddy | ok -- i guess i need to look that up | 16:15 |
| charlie-tca | It is pretty much just editing the pages, and the help in the wiki is good | 16:15 |
| charlie-tca | both https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HelpOnEditing and | 16:16 |
| charlie-tca | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HelpOnMoinWikiSyntax | 16:16 |
| charlie-tca | are good resources for it. It doesn't take too much of a learning curve for this. and, all changes can be reverted. Everything is backed up every change. | 16:17 |
| charlie-tca | I can actually revert 90 days ago or more if need be. | 16:19 |
| charlie-tca | The current release is Natty Narwhal, 11.04 | 16:19 |
| charlie-tca | Our development release is Oneiric Ocelot, and these change every six months | 16:20 |
| charlie-tca | wiki.ubuntu.com is the developers wiki, it is not usually pointed to for users | 16:20 |
| * charlie-tca finally got weechat to show "away" nicks in the nicklist | 16:21 | |
| spongedaddy | ok - good - thanks | 16:22 |
| spongedaddy | will have a look at those links | 16:22 |
| spongedaddy | i'm looking at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu | 16:24 |
| spongedaddy | anything specific that needs attention? | 16:24 |
| charlie-tca | Any references to the end of life releases needs fixing. | 16:25 |
| charlie-tca | I haven't looked at most of the pages in a while, myself | 16:25 |
| charlie-tca | xfce is now 4.8, if anything mentions it | 16:26 |
| micahg | charlie-tca: just reminding you again, I probably will not be at the meeting tomorrow | 16:27 |
| charlie-tca | Thanks, micahg | 16:28 |
| charlie-tca | any updates to development, firefox, or thunderbird to mention? | 16:28 |
| micahg | Thunderbird 5 final will probably hit oneiric soon | 16:28 |
| charlie-tca | spongedaddy: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/Documentation/Wiki | 16:32 |
| charlie-tca | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/Documentation/Wiki/ToDo | 16:35 |
| charlie-tca | I think are both out of date, too | 16:35 |
| spongedaddy | ok -- i'll take a look at the ToDo list | 16:38 |
| spongedaddy | and see if there are any that are doc-centric | 16:39 |
| charlie-tca | That should be the docs todo list, actually | 16:40 |
| spongedaddy | ok -- poking around now -- thanks! | 16:46 |
| pleia2 | this conversation reminded me to get the email out about more content review for the actual site ;) | 16:47 |
| charlie-tca | spongedaddy: more docs at the website needing to be looked at: | 16:52 |
| charlie-tca | http://xubuntu.org | 16:53 |
| charlie-tca | we need to look at all the pages and update them. We do those updates by writing the page and asking pleia2 where to put it to have it updated. | 16:53 |
| pleia2 | my email about it: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/xubuntu-devel/2011-June/007840.html | 16:54 |
| spongedaddy | ok -- i'm game | 16:55 |
| charlie-tca | Kind of an evolving process, huh? | 16:56 |
| spongedaddy | however, i may need a hint knowing what is 'accurate' and 'complete' | 16:56 |
| spongedaddy | yes - documentation and processes, like software, are always evolving :) | 16:57 |
| charlie-tca | We will try to answer when we can | 16:57 |
| spongedaddy | groovy | 16:58 |
| charlie-tca | accurate meaning doesn't include old applications, old releases, references that have been deleted | 16:58 |
| charlie-tca | complete being includes current releases, applications we now use, and actual details where needed for an explanation | 16:59 |
| spongedaddy | so everything should be current re Natty, correct? | 16:59 |
| charlie-tca | Sometimes we get in a hurry, and don't actually tell the reader anything | 16:59 |
| charlie-tca | yes, natty | 16:59 |
| charlie-tca | unless referring to lts, and then it is lucid | 16:59 |
| spongedaddy | so i guess i need to register with launchpad to get started editing | 17:14 |
| Unit193 | Is there already/going to be an installed programs list? | 17:59 |
