| snadge | so i heard a rumour that theres a ppa which fixes laggy window movement | 01:57 |
|---|---|---|
| snadge | but smspillaz has an alternative fix which conflicts | 01:58 |
| snadge | i think i ended up fixing the laggy window movement with a workaround.. adjusting the mouse polling | 01:58 |
| snadge | and my other system uses unity-2d :D | 01:58 |
| snadge | like a boss | 01:59 |
| snadge | im rooting for 12.04 .. can i start testing stuff? :D | 02:09 |
| snadge | or is that a bad idea | 02:09 |
| snadge | it cant be any worse than the production code we're using right now.. *bdom tish* | 02:10 |
| kamstrup | davidcalle: hey happy new year mate :-) | 09:46 |
| kamstrup | davidcalle: I am sure you filed a bug/feature request for overriding how results are merged from scopes into the lens, but I can't find it... | 09:47 |
| kamstrup | oh am I making this up? ;-) | 09:47 |
| snadge | ur trippin' .. nobody speaks in here.. sssshhhh ;) | 09:49 |
| snadge | i occasionally come in here to troll people.. unsuccessfully | 09:50 |
| davidcalle | kamstrup, happy new year :) | 09:50 |
| davidcalle | kamstrup, I've seen the awesome merger branch. Thank you! | 09:51 |
| davidcalle | Let me find this bug... | 09:51 |
| davidcalle | kamstrup, Hum, I remember wanting to file it... | 09:53 |
| kamstrup | davidcalle: hehe, maybe we only ever talked about it then | 09:56 |
| kamstrup | let me file on against libunity | 09:56 |

| gord | davidcalle, hey, before I forget you mentioned about http images in a lens not loading in the dash? (wasn't around at the time but was in my scrollback), do you have a bug for that? not got time to fix it atm but would like to keep it on my radar | 15:49 |
| davidcalle | gord, I have one, let me get it | 15:49 |
| gord | fantastic, I actually think we are just trying to load too many http connections from one source at once, so it just drops connections somewhere. a queue should hopefully fix it | 15:50 |
| davidcalle | gord, hum, I don't have one, let me file it ;) | 15:51 |
| davidcalle | Oh, and I really would like you to give a look at this one https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/878015 | 15:52 |
| ubot5 | Ubuntu bug 878015 in unity (Ubuntu) "Non square icons don't fill result tiles as much as they should" [Medium,Confirmed] | 15:52 |

| mick0 | oh yes please fix that one :) | 16:00 |
| mhall119 | didrocks: kenvandine: ping | 16:46 |
| mhall119 | davidcalle: ping to you too | 16:46 |
| davidcalle | mhall119, hey | 16:47 |
| didrocks | hey mhall119 | 16:47 |
| mhall119 | didrocks: hey, you did the debian packaging feature of quickly, right? | 16:48 |
| mhall119 | davidcalle: do you have a blog, and if so is it on planet.ubuntu.com? | 16:48 |
| mhall119 | I'd like to see your lense work show up on more than just Google+ | 16:49 |
| davidcalle | mhall119, I don't. | 16:49 |
| didrocks | mhall119: indeed | 16:49 |
| mhall119 | didrocks: I'd like to do something just like that for lp:singlet, to generate and build packages for Unity lensees | 16:50 |
| didrocks | mhall119: yeah, I read your blog post, do you know that we already had (but a deprecated one) quickly template for lenses? | 16:50 |
| mhall119 | davidcalle: would you be interested in starting a blog? | 16:50 |
| didrocks | mhall119: maybe you should just integrate your code snippet to it, as a quickly template | 16:50 |
| didrocks | and you will get the packaging feature for free :) | 16:50 |
| mhall119 | didrocks: I heard about that after the fact, yes | 16:50 |
| mhall119 | is that in the quickly trunk? | 16:51 |
| didrocks | mhall119: so, I'm happy to work on that with you if you don't mind | 16:51 |
| didrocks | mhall119: no, and I think that your work is more advanced, it was at the same of only vala lenses | 16:51 |
| mhall119 | didrocks: that'd be awesome | 16:51 |
| didrocks | mhall119: excellent, can we talk about it tomorrow? (not sure of your time zone?) | 16:51 |
| mhall119 | only vala? | 16:52 |
| mhall119 | didrocks: I'm US/Eastern, so it's 12pm for me | 16:52 |
| didrocks | mhall119: yeah, but that's stone age for now (more than a year! ;)) | 16:52 |
| didrocks | mhall119: ok, do you think you have some time tomorrow? I can give it a look in my morning | 16:52 |
| didrocks | and see how we can integrate it | 16:52 |
| mhall119 | it's funny how quickly things become stone-aged on a 6 month cadence | 16:52 |
| mhall119 | didrocks: yup, just give me a ping | 16:53 |
| didrocks | right, it's funny and frightning :) | 16:53 |
| mhall119 | at least we're not doing 6-week cycles like Mozilla, that's scary | 16:53 |
| didrocks | mhall119: great! will ping you back then and nice work on singlet! I'm amazed how your reduced the boiler plate! | 16:53 |
| mhall119 | didrocks: thanks | 16:53 |
| mhall119 | ! | 16:54 |
| didrocks | you* | 16:54 |
| mhall119 | davidcalle: are you an Ubuntu member? | 16:57 |
| davidcalle | mhall119, sorry was in a meeting. I'm not a member and I have a blog ready for ohscopes, I've just never started it. | 17:00 |
| mhall119 | davidcalle: you should definitely apply for membership, there are people who would definitely support you, and then we can get your blog syndicated on planet.ubuntu.com | 17:01 |
| mhall119 | let me know when you have the ohscopes blog setup too, so I can spread the word | 17:01 |
| davidcalle | mhall119, I will, probably this week-end, for membership and blog. | 17:02 |
| mhall119 | awesome | 17:03 |
| mhall119 | davidcalle: I'm going to start trying to get some of these lenses and scopes into software center, which ones are in the best shape for me to start with? | 17:06 |
| davidcalle | Grooveshark scope , utilities lens + calculator scope + cities scope, torrents lens + piratebay scope are good too, but it's controversial and has an "adult" filter. | 17:09 |
| davidcalle | The package descriptions are not great. Feel free to change them :) | 17:11 |
| davidcalle | mhall119 ^ | 17:11 |
| davidcalle | What is needed to have them in the archive? | 17:12 |
| kenvandine | mhall119, pong | 17:17 |
| mhall119 | kenvandine: do you have some time on your schedule to help us package some scopes? | 17:18 |
| kenvandine | not really... | 17:18 |
| kenvandine | although it should be quick and easy | 17:18 |
| kenvandine | maybe i can do one as an example? | 17:19 |
| mhall119 | kenvandine: that would be great | 17:19 |
| kenvandine | point me at one and i'll create the package sometime this week | 17:19 |
| mhall119 | kenvandine: if you there's anything special or specific about doing lense packaging, a blog post about it would benefit the rest of the community | 17:19 |
| kenvandine | true :) | 17:19 |
| mhall119 | davidcalle: you have some packaged already, right? | 17:20 |
| kenvandine | there isn't anything special really | 17:20 |
| kenvandine | just making sure things end up in the right directory | 17:20 |
| davidcalle | mhall119, well, everything in the PPA ;-) | 17:20 |
| mhall119 | davidcalle: where's the ppa again? | 17:22 |
| mhall119 | kenvandine: there are different "right directory" requirements when going through MyApps as opposed to Universe, right? | 17:22 |
| davidcalle | mhall119, https://code.launchpad.net/~scopes-packagers/+archive/ppa | 17:22 |
| kenvandine | mhall119, not sure actually, i think i heard something about putting things in /opt for MyApps | 17:23 |
| mhall119 | davidcalle: looks like you've already got them all packaged? In that case we just need to get them submitted | 17:23 |
| kenvandine | however, i don't think unity will work with that | 17:23 |
| davidcalle | mhall119, I've talked to Stephane Graber and the ARB is fine with some files being out ot /opt | 17:23 |
| kenvandine | cool | 17:23 |
| mhall119 | davidcalle: good | 17:23 |
| mhall119 | davidcalle: do you know how they are going to identify a scope as an add-on to a specific lens package? | 17:24 |
| mhall119 | in software center | 17:24 |
| davidcalle | mhall119, the problem is that scopes depends on lenses, and packages from myapps can't depend on each other... | 17:24 |
| kenvandine | probably a suggests | 17:24 |
| kenvandine | they can suggest it without depending on it | 17:24 |
| davidcalle | kenvandine, I think you are right, that's the way it's currently done. | 17:24 |
| mhall119 | kenvandine: or an rdepends maybe | 17:24 |
| kenvandine | i think if you add the suggests software center does the right thing | 17:25 |
| mhall119 | ok, so the lens package needs to list the scopes for it? that seems backwards | 17:25 |
| kenvandine | mhall119, i suspect so... but that is sub-optimal | 17:25 |
| mhall119 | ok | 17:26 |
| kenvandine | you should probably ask someone on the software center team to confirm | 17:26 |
| kenvandine | maybe there is another way | 17:26 |
| mhall119 | davidcalle: lets pick one lense to start with, and try and get it uploaded to 12.04 | 17:26 |
| kenvandine | but i can't see one | 17:26 |
| mhall119 | kenvandine: ok | 17:26 |
| mhall119 | I'm still not clear if these should go through MyApps or REVU | 17:27 |
| davidcalle | mhall119, the utilities lens + calculator scope + cities scope (weather forecast), seems to be a good combo to start with. | 17:27 |
| mhall119 | davidcalle: are both of those scopes for the utilities lense? | 17:27 |
| davidcalle | It's a calculator + forecast on city name, in the Home Dash. | 17:27 |
| davidcalle | Yes. The utilities lens is a hidden lens, not in the scope bar, just used to host "utilities" scopes. | 17:28 |
| davidcalle | the lens bar* :) | 17:28 |
| mhall119 | how about the graphic design lens? is that in good shape? | 17:29 |
| davidcalle | mhall119, it is, but it has four scopes by default. So, more packages to put in the archive. | 17:29 |
| mhall119 | we can do them one at a time though can't we? | 17:31 |
| mhall119 | it'll require updating the lens package with the additional Suggests, but that shouldn't be difficult to do | 17:31 |
| davidcalle | mhall119, sure. If we pick this one, I should add a package checking in the lens daemon, to avoid displaying filters of not available scopes. Just in case. | 17:32 |
| mhall119 | oh, are they coded into the daemon? | 17:33 |
| davidcalle | The filters are always in the lens daemon. You can't define filters form the scopes. | 17:34 |
| davidcalle | from* | 17:34 |
| mhall119 | ok, I understand what you mean now | 17:37 |
| davidcalle | mhall119, lenses provide the category + filter structure and scopes fill it with data. | 17:37 |
| mhall119 | and some filters don't make sense to have without a specific scope, I gotcha now | 17:37 |
| davidcalle | mhall119, indeed | 17:37 |
| mhall119 | in that case, let's start with the utilities lens + calculator and forecast scopes | 17:37 |
| mhall119 | kenvandine: ^^ can you look at the existing packages for those and let us know what, if anything, needs to be changed before going to the ARB? | 17:38 |
| mhall119 | https://code.launchpad.net/~scopes-packagers/+archive/ppa/+packages | 17:38 |
| davidcalle | mhall119, as a bonus, it's a long-time requested Unity feature, a calculator. | 17:38 |
| mhall119 | that'll be good to highlight then | 17:39 |
| davidcalle | kenvandine, unity-lens-utilities, unity-scope-cities and unity-scope-calculator. But you may just need to look at one, the packaging is done exactly in the same way for all. | 17:40 |
| davidcalle | mhall119, kenvandine, maybe before going to the ARB, we should wait for the libunity API changes to land. Or we choose Oneiric as a target. | 17:47 |
| mhall119 | do we know what API changes are planned? | 17:47 |
| mhall119 | I'm okay with targetting oneiric for now, that way I can use them right away :) | 17:47 |
| davidcalle | mhall119, they have started to land in the Unity PPA. I don't know exactly what is planned. | 17:49 |
| mhall119 | ok, let's target oneiric then | 17:49 |
| davidcalle | mhall119, sounds good. | 17:50 |
| mhall119 | kenvandine: someone has submitted a package branch for lp:singlet, I'll probably get with you to look over it once I merge | 17:50 |
| kenvandine | mhall119, cool | 18:09 |
| cybershoe | Good morning (for certain values of morning). | 18:10 |
| cybershoe | I have the domain "unitydesktop.com", from a project that never launched. | 18:10 |
| cybershoe | I want to offer it up to the Ubuntu team if anyone wants it, otherwise I'm just going to let it lapse. | 18:10 |
| cybershoe | Does anyone know who would be the appropriate person to contact about this? | 18:10 |
| mhall119 | jono: jcastro: ^^ | 18:10 |
| jcastro | wow, no clue there | 18:11 |
| jcastro | webmaster@ubuntu.com maybe? | 18:11 |
| jono | cybershoe, can you email me at jono@ubuntu.com about this | 18:11 |
| jcastro | or just mail jono. :) | 18:11 |
| cybershoe | jono: will do. | 18:11 |
| jono | cybershoe, I will put you in touch with the right person | 18:11 |
| jono | many thanks | 18:11 |
| cybershoe | No worries. | 18:11 |
| cybershoe | I settled on the domain name about a week before I found out you were branding the new UI as Unity. True story. | 18:12 |
| mhall119 | jcastro: I think newz2000 still gets webmaster emails, and I don't think he'd be the one... | 18:13 |

| mick0 | yep. that did it :) All windows end up on one workspace though. | 21:04 |

| mhall119 | mick0: theres a bug on LP to make that easier | 21:18 |
