bkerensahe has been trying to get council to change him to the contact saying that the LoCo is dormant but it really is active and he doesnt even join their channel01:46

bkerensaLOL02:07
bkerensa:(02:07
bkerensaI dont see what the issue is but oh well :D I guess I'm not him02:07
bkerensaWhat list did that hit? someone public or private?02:09
pleia2it's the bikeshead google group (created when we shut down sounder), he Cc:ed me02:09
pleia2I don't actually read that list, if it's anything like sounder it's mostly about complaining about how canonical and unity ruin Ubuntu02:10
pleia2and politics02:10
bkerensaahh ok I thought it was perhaps a archive of something that hit a Ubuntu list02:10
bkerensaoh Unity and Canonical trolling02:10
pleia2frequent Godwin's law points :)02:10
nigelbpleia2: heh02:50
doctormonmhall119: Thanks for the pong, I worked out that introducing new categories requires unity to be restarted,03:02
doctormonpleia2: Well at least they're still interested in Ubuntu; it's worse when people get so despondent you never hear from them.03:04

dholbachhey jono09:01
dholbachthoughts about the new theme? it looks quite bright - it seems I got quite used to the dark colours already :)09:04
jonodholbach, what theme?09:07
jonodholbach, btw, I got the server side validation for the ubuntu accomplishments working tonight09:08
jononow the client, daemon, and validation basically work09:08
jonoand with that, I am heading to bed :-)09:08
jononight all!09:08
dholbachI just uploaded a screenshot, but with Jono gone... :)09:09
dpmdholbach, where's the screenshot? It might be a bug that should be resolved by the next unity upload. I asked about it on #ubuntu-desktop this morning when I saw all my menu indicators were gray instead of black10:42
dholbachah yes, that's what I meant10:42
dholbachI wasn't sure if it was intentional10:42
dholbach:)10:42

mhall119morning13:02
nigelbMorning mhall11913:02
mhall119dpm: ping13:03
mhall119morning nigelb13:03
dpmmorning mhall11913:03
mhall119morning dpm, do you happen to know what's going on with the BAMF documentation on the developer portal?13:03
mhall119http://developer.ubuntu.com/api/ubuntu-11.10/c/bamf/13:03
dpmmhall119, what's up with it?13:05
dpmoh I see13:05
dpmit seems to be empty13:05
mhall119yeah13:06
dpmmhall119, d.u.c only publishes what's in the packages, so either the package does not build the documentation correctly, or the source code does not have documentation - I'd be tempted to say the latter13:06
mhall119thanks dpm, I'll see who I can find to check on that13:07
dpmmhall119, cool, once sorted, let me know and I'll make sure it's updated on d.u.c13:08
mhall119dpm: how does d.u.c look for documentation?13:09
dpmmhall119, it's simply a static list of per-distro packages in a config file on the server, which d.u.c fetches weekly and then publishes13:09
dpmhttp://pastebin.ubuntu.com/827577/13:12
mhall119ah, ok13:12
dpmit'd be great to make that list dynamic, but I can't think of any way of doing it, as there is no standard naming convention for packages to guess them13:19
dpmmost of them are lib$LIBNAME-doc, but that's not always the case13:20
doctormonYay, 4 service tango: http://imagebin.org/19708213:21
dpmdholbach, does http://developer.ubuntu.com/packaging/singlehtml/ look like the latest version?13:22
dpmit should be updated by now13:22
mhall119dpm: yeah, I suppose we could make a meta-package for all unity related developer docs13:24
mhall119but they somebody still has to maintain that13:24
dpmyeah, it's a good idea, but I agree that maintaining it might be extra work13:25
dpmbut also there are other things which while are Ubuntu upstreams, they are not part of the Unity project, such as uTouch13:25
mhall119yeah13:25
doctormonmhall119: Do you want to wait for a deb package that installs for this lens, or are you happy to add it to the list?13:31
mhall119doctormon: I'm happy to add it13:31
doctormonmhall119: It's using singlet Lens, it never worked trying to put it inside the daemon.13:32
doctormonTwo dbus name spaces cause Unity's library to segfault.13:32
mhall119doctormon: cool, singlet should be in Precise's Universe soon13:33
mhall119doctormon: send me the info on the lens, or a link to the info, and I'll put it on my lis13:33
mhall119list13:33
doctormonSo I can't do a bug search (unless all you want to search is gnome-bugzilla and gnu savannah) because launchpad and github don't have global bug searches.13:34
mhall119they don't? that sucks13:34
doctormonhttp://bazaar.launchpad.net/~groundcontrollers/groundcontrol/trunk/files/head:/lens/13:35
doctormonmhall119: Something about it being a resource drain on very large databases. I also had to ditch google-code support, it's search api is ironically impossible.13:36
mhall119didn't they close code search anyway?13:36
doctormonNot sure, but research showed that doing a general search with the gdata.sites.client api with a google_code and google_developer context _should_ have worked.13:37
doctormonBut all I ever get is 405 Bad Request and the documentation is verbose in it's uselessness.13:37
mhall119doctormon: what releases does your lens work on?13:37
doctormonPrecise only, it won't work on anything less.13:38
mhall119cool13:38
doctormonSo to get back to my point, I'm going to do the developers search before I do more work on the bug problem.13:38
doctormonBecause all services support searching for people.13:39
mhall119yeah, Singlet is going to be Precise-only unless someone else takes up the 0.1 branch13:39
doctormonI actually had to duplicate some of your code, I have dynamic categories and multiple scopes.13:39
doctormonSo I have some ideas on API improvements if you're interested.13:40
mhall119doctormon: once singlet is in Universe, I'll help you get it packaged and we'll send it through the ARB process13:41
mhall119and get it into Software Center13:41
mhall119yeah, definitely interested in API improvements13:41
doctormonWell groundcontrol is in universe already, so going from 1.6.2 to 2.1 will be a debian job I think.13:42
doctormonWe'll obviously make sure it creates multiple debs for the lens/unity support and the core.13:42
mhall119oh, cool13:44
mhall119yeah, you'll need your lens binary to Depend on python-unity-singlet13:44
doctormonYes :-) thanks for your help and advice getting the bulk of the work prepared.13:51
mhall119happy to help13:54
mhall119I'm glad to know Singlet worked well for you13:54
mhall119and definitely let me know your thoughts on API changes13:55
mhall119or send me an MP, that'll work too ;)13:55
mhall119I want to make Singlet is complete as possible before the repos freeze13:55
doctormonSend you a Member of P aliment or Military Police?14:01
doctormonmhall119: One thing I notice is that it doesn't end the previous searches, so if I take too long to type things in, it'll display results for each search.14:03
doctormonsay I search for doctormo and pause at doc, now I get results for doctormo and doc14:03
mhall119doctormon: as a US civilian, neither would be able to do anything, so a Merge Proposal might be better14:04
doctormonAh that's an MRQ Merge Request.14:04
mhall119doctormon: yeah, they introduce a Cancellable object in Unity 5, but it doesn't seem to do anything14:04
mhall119Singlet checks if Cancellable.is_cancelled()14:05
doctormonOr just 'patch' to layman. lol14:05
mhall119but I've never seen it be True14:05
doctormonI'm going to track my searchers and break them when I get a new search in.14:05
mhall119doctormon: that's sometehing that should be working in Singlet, I'll need to talk to one of the unity guys to figure out what I'm doing wrong14:06
doctormonDon't worry it might not be, I can't see any entry points for the default Lens to cancel it and I certainly haven't been able to hook up my break code to anything.14:07
dholbachdpm, yes, it looks alright14:07
doctormonmhall119: Ah no wait, it should cancel... it's hooked up to finish() when it calls the complete signal.14:09
doctormonMy guess is that it's not calling complete when the search is refreshed.14:09
mhall119so SingleScopeLens doesn't get the Cancellable object14:09
mhall119but if you used the base Scope class you wouold14:10
doctormonI'm not using SingleScopeLens, I'm using Lens directly.14:10
mhall119and Scope?14:10
doctormonI'm using Unity.Scope14:11
mhall119oh...14:11
mhall119so you're having to connect to all the dbus signals yourself?14:12
doctormonWell yeah, isn't that how it works? Your example in the SingleScopeLens works that way.14:12
mhall119SingleScopeLens isn't an example, it's meant to be sub-classed14:13
doctormonmhall119: Everything is an example; if not then shouldn't SingleScopeLens be using singlet.scope.base.Scope instead?14:14
mhall119it was written before Scope14:14
mhall119doctormon: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~mhall119/onehundredscopes/dictionary/view/head:/dictionary-lens is an example of how to use SingleScopeLens14:15
doctormonmhall119: Yeah and I have a multi scope dynamic category Lens. the dictionary-lens example was insufficient.14:16
doctormonI'm moving it over to use singlet Scopes now...14:16
mhall119ok, then the community lens and locoteams scope are good examples for you14:16
doctormon:-) thanks mhall11914:17
mhall119http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~mhall119/onehundredscopes/unity-community-lens/view/head:/community-lens14:17
mhall119http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~mhall119/onehundredscopes/unity-planetubuntu-scope/view/head:/planetubuntu-scope14:18
mhall119the planetubuntu scope is simpler than the locoteams scope, so probably better as an example14:18

dholbachhuats, now I lost you :)14:50
dholbachhuats, so yes - I think we should have a look and see how we add the dates and stuff at some stage :)14:50
akgraneranyone know the correct way to always write upsteam? is it Upstream or upstream in a sentence?14:52
cjohnstonI would think your use would be a noun14:53
cjohnstonand proper14:53
mhall119I'd say non-proper14:53
mhall119I'm not sure it makes much difference either way14:54
* cjohnston says mhall119 should do it14:54
mhall119to me, 'upstream' is like 'partners', it's not capitalized14:54
cjohnstonduno14:54
huatsdholbach: sorry14:55
huatsI think my laptop battery is a friend of your router...14:55
dholbachhuats, so yes - I think we should have a look and see how we add the dates and stuff at some stage :)14:55
huatsdholbach: it is needed to know if we need to email again14:55
huatsor to have some information14:56
huats(and especially when there a many people involved in the team)14:56
dholbachhuats, I'd say if somebody assigns a person to themselves, they should look after it and make sure that everything gets sorted out and then mark it green when it's done14:56
dholbachbut having some date information would be good too14:56
