| dholbach | good morning | 07:01 |
|---|---|---|
| Malin | my project finally got built, can someone check if this lens now meets the arb-requirements? https://myapps.developer.ubuntu.com/dev/apps/782/ | 09:56 |
| Malin | https://code.launchpad.net/~malinkb | 09:56 |
| dpm | hi Malin, I'm not a member of the ARB, but here are a couple of suggestions after looking at your app: | 10:04 |
| dpm | - I'd suggest adding icons in all sizes | 10:04 |
| dpm | - There are a few typos in the long description e.g. 'lense', I'd suggest running a spell checker and editing it | 10:05 |
| Malin | ah, I see. I should fix the typos | 10:09 |
| Malin | hm, so what other sizes do I need? | 10:09 |
| Malin | ah, I should have 128x128, 32x32 and 16x16, but why? | 10:11 |
| dpm | they are shown in different places, but I don't know exactly which | 10:11 |
| Malin | yeah, cause the lens it self needs 64x64 only | 10:12 |
| Malin | but if it needs different sizes for the software center, I should add larger and smaler of course | 10:12 |
| dpm | yeah | 10:12 |
| dpm | Malin, and I think there is no need to add the link to the homepage in the description, that is already shown in the software center as a link from the home page field you fill in as part of the submission process | 10:13 |
| Malin | oki | 10:17 |
| Malin | so I should remove the link to the launchpad-project-page? | 10:17 |
| dpm | in the description, yes, but not on the other field :) | 10:20 |
| Malin | ah, oki | 10:35 |
| dpm | very cool lens, btw :) | 10:35 |
| Malin | hm, I uploaded more icons, but the 128x128 became unsharp :S | 10:35 |
| Malin | ah, you think so? thanx | 10:35 |
| Malin | I want to implement some few new features to it | 10:36 |
| Malin | there is a realtime-service available, so I need access to an api for it, then it wil present realtime info for the busstop you are going to travel from :) | 10:37 |
| Malin | But first step is complete. The lens, works. The second thing is to get it into software center | 10:46 |
| Malin | then I can improve it | 10:46 |
| dpm | Malin, http://askubuntu.com/questions/141594/where-are-the-different-app-icon-sizes-submitted-through-the-app-developer-site | 12:33 |
| dpm | Malin, I would ping someone from the ARB to review it, or send an e-mail to ubuntu-app-devel(AT)lists(DOT)ubuntu(DOT)com | 12:34 |
| Malin | dpm: oki :) thanx | 12:42 |
| dpm | yw :) | 12:42 |
| Malin | I have to put in a newer link to source code i think | 12:43 |
| Malin | hm. dosen't work | 12:48 |
| Malin | :( | 12:49 |
| Malin | ah, it have to be admitted first :) | 12:51 |
| mhall119 | ajmitch: has wendar been around lately? | 16:43 |
| ajmitch | not that I've seen | 16:43 |
| mhall119 | she has a work item for writing an ARB backend for pkgme | 16:46 |
| mhall119 | but I don't know what she was planning, as i don't think it's possible to do that | 16:47 |
| ajmitch | right, she was making good progress on that one at UDS | 16:47 |
| ajmitch | why don't you think it's possible? | 16:47 |
| mhall119 | because the backends are source-specific, not destination specific | 16:47 |
| mhall119 | I can see an ARB+python backend, and an ARB+cmake backend | 16:47 |
| mhall119 | but not just one single ARB backend | 16:48 |
| ajmitch | right, we talked about the ARB backend calling the other backends | 16:48 |
| mhall119 | oh, ok... | 16:48 |
| ajmitch | the ARB backend would get used because of the extra info passed through from the myapps site | 16:48 |
| mhall119 | hmmm, too bad backends are script, not objects | 16:48 |
| ajmitch | yeah | 16:49 |
| mhall119 | python's polymorphism would have made that task easier | 16:49 |
| ajmitch | currently it just calls one backend, rther than chaining them together, so it has to be done manually | 16:49 |
| ajmitch | but as james_w suggested, you can have a backend run pkgme again | 16:49 |
| mhall119 | recursively calling pkgme? | 16:50 |
| ajmitch | so once we get the ARB queue under control again, I'll need to catch up with you on some of the developer.u.c documentation | 16:50 |
| ajmitch | yep | 16:50 |
| mhall119 | sure, I think most of the stuff I need for developer.u.c is already on your wikis, I just need to know which ones to use | 16:51 |
| ajmitch | there's also the API documentation stuff to look at | 16:51 |
| mhall119 | what do you mean? | 16:51 |
| ajmitch | not quite as related, but I've got work items for that | 16:51 |
| mhall119 | oh, finding outdated links? | 16:51 |
| ajmitch | the GDN frontend | 16:52 |
| mhall119 | oh, right | 16:52 |
| ajmitch | https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/community-q-platform-docs | 16:52 |
| mhall119 | yeah, we'll probably want to do a hangout or something to discuss our plans for that | 16:52 |
| ajmitch | ok | 16:52 |
| mhall119 | I need to get that gdn code and poke around at it too | 16:52 |
| * ajmitch has branched it, looked at it brielfy, but didn't do much at all in the week after uds | 16:53 | |
| mhall119 | as we'll need to pick that or RTD before doing any front-end work | 16:53 |
| ajmitch | cursed ubuflu | 16:53 |
| dpm | hey ajmitch, recovered from ubuflu already? | 16:54 |
| ajmitch | mostly | 16:54 |
| dpm | good to hear that :) | 16:54 |
| ajmitch | seems like we almost forgot it's the last friday of the month this week, I'd better mail the list & see if people are around for a meeting | 16:56 |
| dpm | hey, may I ask you guys to review the app I sent at https://myapps.developer.ubuntu.com/dev/apps/874/ ? I'd like to write a series of blog posts about how it got started and how it got to the USC, and it'd be awesome if it were available in the SC when I write the first post. Should be easy to review: it's a quickly app andrewsomething had already a look at it and I merged his packaging changes | 16:57 |
| ajmitch | I can try & look at it this weekend if someone else doesn't get to it | 16:58 |
| ajmitch | firstly I need to get the AU lens in, along with catching up on some others :) | 16:58 |
| dpm | cool, thanks | 16:59 |
| ajmitch | ok, motu meeting is over, I'm going to try & get a couple of hours more sleep :) | 17:00 |
| * ajmitch will be around later | 17:00 | |
| ajmitch | darn, no dpm around still | 23:43 |
| ajmitch | mhall119: if you're around, is it ok to change the visibility on http://developer.ubuntu.com/wp-admin/post.php?post=99&action=edit to fix https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntudeveloperportal/+bug/968235 ? | 23:43 |
| mhall119 | ajmitch: I'm not sure what's being done on there | 23:45 |
| mhall119 | did you write the page, or just making changes to it? | 23:45 |
| mhall119 | or does it just need to be made public? | 23:46 |
| ajmitch | I didn't write it or make changes, I was hoping to catch dpm to ask if it was inadvertantly left as private | 23:46 |
| ajmitch | afaict it just needs to be made public | 23:46 |
| ajmitch | but I didn't want to just do so without checking with someone | 23:46 |
| mhall119 | hmmm, it looks out of date now | 23:46 |
| mhall119 | yeah, lots of that is too old to be helpful | 23:48 |
| mhall119 | ajmitch: maybe it would be better to just change the link that points there to point to http://developer.ubuntu.com/resources/ instead | 23:49 |
| ajmitch | ok | 23:50 |
| ajmitch | assuming it'll let me edit | 23:53 |
| ajmitch | I think I'll leave it until later | 23:53 |
