thecolonyroomczajkowski: Hullo.14:45
=== thecolonyroom is now known as steveedwards
czajkowskithecolonyroom: ahh didnt recognise the nick14:45
steveedwardsczajkowski: Hullo.14:45
czajkowskita da14:45
steveedwardsczajkowski: Sorry. My alter ego.14:45
mhall119cjohnston, meet steveedwards14:45
cjohnstono/14:45
czajkowskiso basiccally just trying to work out why we have 2 projects with the same name and wondering can they not be under one project14:45
steveedwardscjohnston: Don't hate me.14:45
czajkowskior is there something I'm missing here14:45
cjohnstontheres alot that we are missing14:46
cjohnstonbut i agree14:46
mhall119so cjohnston has already given maintainership of uds-project to ~uds-organizers, and I've already pushed steveedwards's code there14:46
cjohnstoni dont care which it is, just pick one and point the other to it if possible14:46
mhall119we also already have bugs files against uds-project, though they're probably not relevant after the theme change14:47
cjohnstonmhall119: ive gone through them14:47
cjohnston2.5 still are14:47
mhall119ok14:47
czajkowskiat prsent steveedwards project that was registed is inactive so just wondering can he use the project that currenly cjohnston ownes for the summit work14:47
mhall119sorry, but just to clarify, this is for uds.u.c work, not summit.u.c work14:48
cjohnstonsteveedwards: if possible, whatever we choose, can we put a link in the footer as to where to file a bug for the site so that people dont file against ubuntu-website14:48
cjohnstonsummit work need to go under the summit project14:48
steveedwardscjohnston: Will do. I can add that.14:48
mhall119summit *code* work anyway, we still have some content on there that is UDS-specific (but we're working on removing that)14:48
cjohnstontheme work needs to go against https://launchpad.net/ubuntu-community-webthemes14:49
mhall119cjohnston: not for uds.u.c14:49
cjohnstonfor summit14:49
mhall119the django one, yes14:49
cjohnstonif everything wasnt hard coded into uds.u.c branch, the branch could be pushed there and all sites could be updated to the new guidelines14:50
cjohnstonbut oh well14:50
mhall119so is everybody okay with using uds-project?14:51
cjohnston+0 just pick one14:51
mhall119I'm +1, simply because it's all there already14:51
steveedwardsmhall119: Sounds good.14:51
mhall119steveedwards: we can add you to ~uds-organizers if you think we need to, so you can push to the branch on that project14:52
steveedwardsmhall119: That would be great. Thanks.14:52
mhall119otherwise you can just push under your name and make a merge proposal to that branch14:52
czajkowskigreat we're sorted so14:54
czajkowskihttps://launchpad.net/uds-project  is the one to live right ?14:54
mhall119right14:54
cjohnstonyes14:54
mhall119thanks czajkowski, steveedwards, cjohnston14:56
czajkowskilovely jubbly14:56
czajkowskisorted so14:56
* czajkowski goes back to reviewing more projects 14:56
czajkowskitoodles14:56
steveedwardsmhall119: Cheers.14:56
cjohnstonsteveedwards so what are the thoughts from the design team on making the user experience a decent one going between uds.u.c and summit.u.c14:57
cjohnstonit was ok at best in prior to the update14:57
niceguyjamescjohnston: the issue with the previous uds.u.com and summit.u.com was primarily that the sites tried to mirror each other to make it less obvious you were jumping between different websites, but because they were out of sync that didn't really work.15:02
cjohnstonright..15:02
niceguyjamescjohnston: so during the UX, the top-level navigation links to summit were reimagined as call-to-actions to go off-site.15:02
niceguyjamescjohnston: hence them being removed from the top-level navigation which should be reserved for navigation in the current site.15:03
cjohnstonit doesnt make sense to me that there is only 1 link that i find to the schedule15:03
niceguyjamescjohnston: equally it doesn't make sense that an empty page is promoted before it's populated15:04
cjohnstonI've been against having two seperate sites from day one.. the work should be done to make it one site IMO15:04
niceguyjamescjohnston: so it may be that it gets dropped into the nav when it does?15:04
niceguyjamescjohnston: +115:04
steveedwardscjohnston: We'd love to help with that.15:04
steveedwardscjohnston: If we can find the time.15:04
cjohnstonbzr branch lp:summit15:04
cjohnston;-)15:04
niceguyjamescjohnston: the above is just so you know where the UX decision came from.15:04
steveedwardscjohnston: :)15:04
cjohnstonty niceguyjames15:04
cjohnstonhardcoding would have been just as easy with both15:05
cjohnstonIf we are going to hardcode, I could easily add it all to summit, then just point uds.u.c to summit15:05
cjohnstonill be back in 5 minutes15:06
cjohnstonim back15:15
cjohnstonsvwilliams: ping15:25
svwilliamsHey cjohnston15:26
cjohnstonhave you had a change to work on your branches anymore?15:26
svwilliamsI worked on them more sunday, but not yesterday15:28
cjohnstonok15:28
svwilliamsI'll have time tonight to straighten out the position: relative issue15:28
cjohnstoncool.. ty15:29
svwilliamsthats the only thing left, removing the % and specifying the px fixed the ltp issue15:29
svwilliams:-)15:29
cjohnstonsweet15:30
cjohnstondo you know what the problem is with the position relative issue?15:30
cjohnstonor do you need to mess around with it15:30
svwilliamsI need to mess around with it15:42
svwilliamscjohnston, (sorry for the delays in responses)15:42
cjohnstonnp15:42
svwilliamsI think I can put them inside a block that is position relative, but it seems like if they themselves are position relative it ignores that when resizing the page15:43
svwilliamsdue to the display:inline-block15:43
svwilliamsthough now that I'm typing it15:43
svwilliamsI'm wondering if my margins are throwing it off15:44
svwilliamsI have plenty of time to play with it tonight15:44
svwilliamsI'll let you know15:44
cjohnstonok15:44
cjohnstonsvwilliams: this is really odd.. I'm seeing doubles and dont know why.. I've stared adding links in your side bar.. but i have two side bars16:41
cjohnstonand the side-bar needs to wrap text16:42
cjohnstonsvwilliams: mhall119 http://ubuntuone.com/5sgMhDL72yeJDnjBXaPVXv16:45

dakermhall119, can you help with a small question ?18:05
mhall119daker: sure18:05
dakermhall119, i want to select all the events that are in still happening18:06
mhall119daker: from within Django, or from the JSON API?18:07
dakerdjango18:07
dakerORM18:07
dakerFYI: each events has a start/end date18:07
dakerevent*18:07
dakerimagine you have two events happening today and i need to get them just by passing the date18:09
dakermhall119, ^18:10
mhall119daker: we have that in the object managers already I think18:12
dakermhall119, no i think you didn't understand18:14
dakerimagine you have event 1 from 10-03-2012 to 13-03-201218:14
dakerand event 2 from 12-03-2012 to 13-03-201218:15
dakerand i want just by passing the 12-03-2012 to the query to get the list of the two events18:15
svwilliamscjohnston, that's odd ... it looks like the block that you are building links into exists in more than one place ... did I leave a trailing one in from all of our testing18:17
svwilliamslast friday18:17
mhall119daker: ah, I think I understand18:20
mhall119daker: something like TeamEvent.objects.filter(date_end__gte=your_date_variable)18:21
mhall119that will give you any date that *end* after the given variable date18:21
mhall119daker: look at next_events in TeamEventsManager18:22
mhall119/events/models.py line 10518:22
