Takyoji | Anyone have a suggestion as an option for having a LoCo member map; just like how Launchpad previously had maps for group members? | 03:10 |
---|---|---|
JanC | Takyoji: what does it have to integrate with? | 03:13 |
Takyoji | likely a common CMS system; whether it be Drupal or Wordpress; or perhaps even something custom with Django | 03:14 |
JanC | Takyoji: for Drupal we have http://ubuntu-be.org/nl/supporters ☺ | 03:15 |
JanC | sources are in LP somewhere, let me find it... | 03:16 |
Takyoji | Ooo, OpenStreetMap | 03:16 |
Takyoji | I suppose I could even write something myself as well | 03:16 |
JanC | it does OSM & Google IIRC | 03:16 |
Takyoji | I wonder how much the API for OSM And Google Maps differs | 03:17 |
JanC | there is an API that can be used with both IIRC | 03:17 |
JanC | Takyoji: https://launchpad.net/support.points.map is the project for this Drupal plugin | 03:19 |
JanC | help with it would be appreciated BTW, as Pierre (our main developer) is moving to Canada ☺ | 03:21 |
Takyoji | I'm not really much of a Drupal person though. :P | 03:24 |
JanC | neither am I... | 03:24 |
JanC | Takyoji: I'm still pondering moving to something Django-based, but that would mean I'd become the main dev, I suppose ;) | 03:26 |
Takyoji | that's what I was just suggesting to my (I'm not the team contact/leader though) LoCo team. :P | 03:27 |
Takyoji | Because I'd be leaning more towards Wordpress, but the leader/contact is wary of Wordpress because of it's past security history (even though it's so much easier to theme for and more), thus I was alternately suggesting something Django-based | 03:28 |
Takyoji | that's the thing about me, I've been in limbo with CMS solutions for a long time. xP | 03:28 |
JanC | the problem is, I don't really want to be the only person working on it | 03:28 |
Takyoji | But currently for my own clients I'm using Wordpress for them | 03:28 |
Takyoji | What is the LoCo Directory developed with? | 03:29 |
JanC | Django | 03:29 |
Takyoji | Also, you can obviously have the source code available for your Django-based solution | 03:29 |
Takyoji | would be interesting to work on making a set of tools for LoCo websites in Django. :P | 03:31 |
JanC | if there would be a supported set of tools, yes | 03:32 |
JanC | Takyoji: what locoteam do you belong to? | 03:42 |
JanC | MN = Maine ? | 03:43 |
* JanC doesn't remember all US states ;) | 03:43 | |
Takyoji | Minnesota | 03:43 |
JanC | ah | 03:43 |
JanC | anyway, I'm going off to sleep now | 03:44 |
JanC | it's 5h45 here ;) | 03:44 |
* JanC was trying to follow the ironman in hawaii despite their useless crap silverlight app... :-( | 03:45 | |

mhall119 | Takyoji: you can get the coe at http://launchpad.net/loco-direcory | 05:38 |
Takyoji | I was only curious to see if was Python-based | 05:38 |
mhall119 | code | 05:38 |
Takyoji | also, you mistyped the URL. :P | 05:44 |

head_victim | Quick question, if someone is paying a nominal fee to hold a stand at a market, would it be acceptable to request 1-2 dollar donations for CDs distributed to Locos to cover the small cost of the stand? | 10:05 |

mhall119 | Takyoji: sorry, https://launchpad.net/loco-directory | 13:45 |
leogg | head_victim, IMHO there's nothing wrong with accepting donations, as long as it's not a requirement for obtaining a CD | 13:58 |
mhall119 | head_victim: in my experience you'll get more asking for a voluntary donation than requiring a 1-2 dollar one | 14:20 |
mhall119 | doing that with Qimo cds, someone once stuck a $20 bill in our donation bowl for his CD | 14:21 |
mhall119 | you'll also get people donating without even taking a CD | 14:21 |
head_victim | leogg & mhall119: thanks for the feedback, it's pretty much what I thought but wanted to make sure. | 20:44 |
