nigelb | Hey duanedesign :) | 12:04 |
akgraner | Does anyone know if the Brainstorm code base is being actively maintained and if so by whom? | 12:50 |
akgraner | OH and HAPPY NEW YEAR everybody! | 12:51 |
mhall119 | happy new year akgraner | 12:51 |
mhall119 | I'm not sure if/who though | 12:51 |
akgraner | ok that's seems to be the answer I am getting - I have someone who wants to use it | 12:52 |
popey | stgraber is probably a good person to ask | 12:53 |
popey | not because he maintains it, but because I think he knows who does | 12:53 |
akgraner | popey, thank you! | 12:55 |
jcastro | akgraner: it was nicholas deschildre | 15:02 |
jcastro | but he's been gone a long time now | 15:02 |
akgraner | ok thanks | 15:02 |
popey | bbc used the code for a while | 15:03 |
popey | dunno if they still do | 15:03 |

mhall119 | jcastro: invite sent | 15:25 |
czajkowski | bkerensa: see I dont feel sorry for you now about your hoodie :) | 15:25 |
bkerensa | czajkowski: It comes with strings attached.... I have to review it and usually its stuff I dont actually want and end up giving away to my neighbors kids | 15:25 |
jcastro | mhall119: one sec | 15:27 |

balloons | jcastro beat me to the punch! | 16:44 |
jono_ | lol | 16:44 |
snap-l | I think I have the new Ubuntu 12.04 tagline: Ubuntu: Pants Optional. | 16:48 |
snap-l | Precise Pangolin Pants Preferred? | 16:48 |
mhall119 | might be awkward for our British friends | 16:49 |
snap-l | They had their chance with Karmic Knickers. | 16:49 |
=== jono_ is now known as jono | ||
mhall119 | lol | 16:50 |
jono | mhall119, ok let's talk in the next 15 mins or so, just wrapping some discussions now | 16:50 |
snap-l | Even Natty Knickers would have worked, but NOOOOO | 16:50 |
mhall119 | jono: send me a hangout invite whenever you're ready | 16:52 |
jono | mhall119, will do | 16:56 |

jono | mhall119, ugh | 17:28 |
jono | jcastro is here, we will wait for you | 17:29 |
james_w | mhall119, hi, is it true that scopes have to depend on the lenses they are for? | 18:43 |
mhall119 | james_w: to be shown as add-ons on software center, they need to use the Enhances field in debian/control, with the lens package they enhance | 18:44 |
mhall119 | james_w: join #ayatana to discuss that more with us | 18:45 |
james_w | mhall119, I have a developer that is saying that to submit a lens and scope to s-c they have to make the scope *depend* on the lens | 18:45 |
james_w | which is against the rules of extras | 18:45 |
mhall119 | james_w: I don't think that's entirely accurate | 18:46 |
james_w | I'm trying to find out if it is true before I push for an exception in the policy | 18:46 |
mhall119 | james_w: we have been told that lens packages will get some exceptions to rules like that | 18:46 |
AlanBell | that is an interesting point | 18:46 |
mhall119 | james_w: bring it up in #ayatana, davidcalle, didrocks and mtp have been talking about how to get lenses into USC properly | 18:47 |
jcastro | http://www.extremetech.com/computing/112109-canonical-announcing-ubuntu-concept-device-at-ces-this-year?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+ziffdavis%2Fextremetech+%28Extremetech%29&utm_content=Google+Reader | 18:47 |
jcastro | hah | 18:47 |
AlanBell | is the lens also in extras or is that in the main repos? | 18:47 |
jcastro | look at the brand name on the back of the tablet | 18:47 |
mhall119 | shuttlepad, awesome | 18:47 |
james_w | AlanBell, extras I assume, or this wouldn't be coming up | 18:47 |
AlanBell | james_w: so it could depend on an existing lens, but things in extras can't depend on each other right? | 18:49 |
james_w | as it stands, yes | 18:49 |
popey | hahah | 19:36 |
jono | jcastro, ok to chat soon? | 20:03 |
jcastro | jono: yeah, sorry I missed your ping | 20:42 |
jcastro | mhall119: https://launchpad.net/~markjtully/+archive/ppa | 20:43 |
jcastro | this guy fixes lenses and puts them in a PPA | 20:43 |
jcastro | we should snag him too | 20:43 |
jcastro | jono: I can go whenevs | 20:46 |
jono | jcastro, ok about set | 20:54 |
jono | jcastro, invite sent | 21:01 |
jcastro | and I'm in! | 21:02 |
jono | jcastro, I don't see you | 21:02 |
jcastro | jono: bah that thread has no content about the actual status, just us coordinating to have a call about it | 21:40 |
jcastro | we did have a call a day or two before the holidays though | 21:41 |
jcastro | so hopefully some progress has been made recently | 21:42 |
mhall119 | jcastro: I'm going to put together a "highlights reel" blog post to list all the lenses and scopes I'm aware of, do you know of any others? | 21:44 |
mhall119 | AlanBell: is your openerp lens code public? | 21:47 |
AlanBell | not right now because it has hardcoded connection details | 21:47 |
mhall119 | AlanBell: is it going to be at some point? | 21:48 |
AlanBell | yes | 21:48 |
mhall119 | or can I get a screenshot? sanitized is okay | 21:48 |
AlanBell | I would love to know the right way to do a lens that needs a bit of configuration and authentication | 21:48 |
mhall119 | AlanBell: me too, are you in #ayatana? | 21:48 |
AlanBell | yes | 21:49 |
jcastro | mhall119: I know of this one: http://askubuntu.com/questions/38772/what-lenses-for-unity-are-available | 22:11 |
jcastro | there's one for indicators too | 22:11 |
jcastro | which wouldn't be a bad thing to highlight/steal and put on unity.ubuntu.comn | 22:11 |
jcastro | mhall119: the snarky comment I said to mpt was "maybe we don't want to highlight indicators, it will just encourage people to make more." | 22:12 |
jcastro | hah | 22:12 |
jcastro | I used this often: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/5720/whyappindicators%3F.png | 22:15 |
czajkowski | Pendulum: http://lwn.net/Articles/473007/ | 22:16 |
pleia2 | \o/ | 22:17 |
AlanBell | jcastro: can you point me at the spec for indicators | 22:18 |
AlanBell | want to see who needs slapping for the unlabled images at the top level | 22:18 |
jcastro | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopExperienceTeam/ApplicationIndicators | 22:18 |
AlanBell | bah, the spec is broken | 22:21 |
Pendulum | czajkowski: yeah, that's been on my radar. I'm glad it made it into LWN :) | 22:23 |
AlanBell | so from what I can see the indicators have no concept of their own name | 22:23 |
AlanBell | they are instantiated with app_indicator_new taking an id, an icon name (not readable) and a category (not unique) and there is no indicator name anywhere else | 22:24 |
AlanBell | and if you use app_indicator_set_label then you get the string printed (like the clock) and can't supress that | 22:25 |
AlanBell | indicator-messages kind of gets it right, there is an update_a11y_desc method that gets called in a few places and cruicially sets the description property of the image. | 22:41 |
AlanBell | this is one of those things that would be so much more consistent if it was baked into the spec | 22:42 |
AlanBell | oh and it even changes from "Messages" to "New Messages" when you have mail | 22:44 |
mhall119 | jcastro: awesome example of why systray is bad | 22:54 |
mhall119 | AlanBell: have you looked at lenses from an accessibility perspective? | 22:57 |
AlanBell | yeah, they say "button" a lot | 23:07 |
AlanBell | but generally are kind of navigable | 23:07 |
AlanBell | sometimes they read odd numbers for the total number of results in a folded up category | 23:08 |
AlanBell | I think the filters are hard to get to and some are not readable like the ratings filters | 23:08 |
AlanBell | I think the most broken new feature being introduced in precise is the shortcuts overlay on long hold of the super key | 23:10 |
