MrChrisDruifEven more mentions of grand-designer AlanBell ? ;-)00:06
tgm4883AlanBell, MrChrisDruif thats cause you're at the point where those pages are getting the info off of other blogs, not the Ubuntu TV wiki00:28
MrChrisDruifHaha, I was just guessing, I haven00:30
MrChrisDruif't looked at the articles00:30
AlanBelltgm4883: yes, I am just ammused by the spread of the story and translations etc08:53

AlanBellhttp://people.ubuntu.com/~mhall119/utv/index.html22:30
AlanBellI like it mhall11922:30
mhall119thanks23:12
mhall119I need to get the remote into the template23:13
mhall119AlanBell: did you see my dash mockup too?23:13
AlanBellvery nice23:14
AlanBelldouble press, interesting!23:14
mhall119yeah, I'm thinking either double-press or press-and-hold actions will let us do more with fewer buttons23:15
AlanBellusing regular sized icons looks about right on the 1/4 screen23:15
mhall119a TV is effectively a small-screen display, because of the distance you will typically be from it23:16
mhall119I'm thinking it'll probably need a modified GTK theme to increase padding and spacing, then default to a large font size23:17
mhall119no matter what we do, it won't be suitable for reading large amounts of text23:17
mhall119not even email, IMO23:17
AlanBelltweets probably23:18
AlanBellemail subjects and notifications maybe23:18
mhall119yeah, that would work23:18
mhall119notify-osd should work fine on a TV23:18
AlanBellyeah, I think that could be an important part of it23:20
AlanBellintegrated with your other computing stuff23:20
mhall119I was reading the ~ubuntu-tv ML archive earlier, there seems to be confustion about what ubuntu on a TV should be23:21
mhall119it's my understanding that the whole point of Unity was to provide a common interface across different kinds of devices, which is why my mockups look so much like desktop Unity23:24
mhall119is that what you were going with as well?23:24
mhall119AlanBell: what are you throughts on working with non-maximized windows?23:29
mhall119without a mouse or even a keyboard, it sounds like a pain23:29
AlanBellyeah, not sure we should23:41
AlanBellunless they are like the non-maximised unity lens/dash23:41
AlanBellattached to the launcher23:41
