[13:56] <dpm> hi mhall119, I was just reading comment #19 on http://developer.ubuntu.com/2012/04/how-to-create-a-wikipedia-unity-lens-for-ubuntu/ - do you think there is any step we should add to the tutorial to improve the lens' installation?
[13:58] <mhall119> dpm: there seems to be a misunderstanding about what the tutorial is meant to produce
[13:59] <mhall119> maybe we can add some wording that it sets things up for local development only, not installing it for everyday use
[13:59] <mhall119> and also a bit about using Quickly to turn it into an installable package than *is* appropriate for everyday use
[13:59] <mhall119> I was afraid of this, "quickly install" is being confused with "make install"
[14:00] <mhall119> but I'm not sure of a better wording
[14:01] <mhall119> maybe "addlens" and "removelens"?
[14:01] <mhall119> that'll require a change to quickly though
[14:16] <dpm> mhall119, yeah, I think I'll add a paragraph with the comment on it being for local development
[14:17] <dpm> in terms of quickly changes, I think adding the new commands to the templates might be a good idea. But since we cannot add them for 12.04, I wonder if I should just mention 'quickly package' - will the packaging work with the lens template?
[14:19] <mhall119> I believe so
[14:19] <dpm> cool
[14:28] <mhall119> dpm: what are your thoughts on adding Geany to the list of IDEs on the developer portal?
[14:30] <mhall119> I know we brought up the fact that it isn't in Main, but then again neither is Eclipse, MonoDevelop or even QTCreator
[14:35] <dpm> mhall119, as discussed, I'd be for keeping the site simple for now. While choice is an asset in Ubuntu, it can also be too daunting if we present too many choices. We went through a lot of discussion as to which IDEs we would present on so http://developer.ubuntu.com/get-started/, and we reached consensus on those. Note that we didn't add Anjuta, either. Re: universe, good point, I hadn't realised myself that qtcreator was in universe, but my main c
[14:35] <dpm> oncern is not to clutter the site with all available options. One thing we could conceibably do is to add a note under the resources site (IIRC we've got an IDE section), but I'd prefer not to add it to the get-started page
[14:36] <mhall119> ok
