[01:20] <wildmanne39> Does anyone know exactly how to get a word to show in a different color in a wiki? I have tried the format that is given in the guide but it has not worked so far
[01:41] <cortman> I know wildmanne39 neither work. I asked bodhizazen about it and he didn't know why they didn't work either
[01:41] <cortman> He suggested contacting the doc team. I sent an email to the mailing list but no reply yet.
[01:42] <wildmanne39> cortman, that is good, I am about to eat bbl
[01:43] <cortman> k
[14:58] <hannie> hi hobgoblin cortman JoseeAntonioR
[14:59] <JoseeAntonioR> Hello, hannie.
[15:04] <cortman> hi hannie
[15:04] <cortman> Are you connected to the official doc team at all hannie ?
[15:04] <hannie> no, I am not
[15:05] <hannie> I only translated the ubuntu docs
[15:05] <cortman> Oh ok
[15:05] <cortman> I'm trying to track down someone official to fix the community wiki
[15:05] <hannie> matthew East is the one
[15:05] <hannie> do you want his email address?
[15:06] <cortman> Sure that'd be great!
[15:06] <hannie> one moment
[15:06] <hannie> mdke@ubuntu.com
[15:06] <cortman> Thanks a lot hannie
[15:07] <hannie> He is from the doc team. If he can't help you, he can tell you who can
[15:07] <hannie> welcome
[15:07] <cortman> Great
[15:15] <hobgoblin> hi hannie - nice to see you - was it manic :)
[15:15] <hannie> hey hobgoblin nice to be back :)
[15:16] <hannie> I was very, very busy (like all you guys)
[15:16] <hobgoblin> well I've not been too busy with this - but I've been doing a fair lot of daily iso testing lately
[15:16] <hannie> Now I am catching up with translations and hopefully the forums2wiki tasks
[15:17] <hannie> iso testing for quantal?
[15:17] <hobgoblin> yea
[15:18] <hannie> do you think it will be very different from Precise?
[15:19] <hobgoblin> well in the one I use xfce is upgraded to 4.10 and does some tiling and the panels have a deskbar option
[15:19] <hannie> nice
[15:19] <hobgoblin> yep :)
[15:20] <hannie> hobgoblin, do you want me to start with a special task or shall I just continue reading forum tutorials and judging them?
[15:20] <hobgoblin> hannie: this has all been ticking over nicely though - cortman and wildmanne have been doing lots
[15:21] <hannie> ok, I haven't seen the list for a while. Time to have a look at it
[15:21] <hobgoblin> hannie: yea do that - I think we more or less have the basics under control now and it's just about getting stuff to move
[15:21] <hobgoblin> not sure what the others who appear to idle in here are doing mind you ;)
[15:22] <hannie> well, what people do should be on the list
[15:23] <hobgoblin> hannie: list?
[15:23] <hannie> import list
[15:23] <hobgoblin> what we need I guess is people looking at threads and linking them to the imprt page
[15:23] <hobgoblin> aah yes indeed:)
[15:30] <hobgoblin> hannie: at some point I'd like to talk about the manual thing as well
[15:30] <hannie> ok, we are now in the final stage of proofreading
[15:31] <hannie> Perhaps when we start with Quantal, we can count on you?
[15:31] <hobgoblin> yep
[15:31] <hannie> That will start in about two weeks
[15:31] <hobgoblin> ok
[15:31] <hannie> I will let you know
[15:31] <hobgoblin> I'm slated to be helping with xubuntu documentation as well
[15:32] <hobgoblin> got a lot of time at the moment :)
[15:32] <hannie> writing or reviewing?
[15:32] <hobgoblin> I can't remember lol
[15:32] <hannie> lol
[15:33] <hannie> When the Precise version of the manual is out, I have a new task translating it
[15:34] <hannie> But this time I will do it together with my team mates
[15:34] <hobgoblin> that sounds like fun ...
[15:35] <hannie> Eveyone can do one or two chapters, thus the work will be done in a jiffy
[15:35] <hobgoblin> relatively speaking ;)
[15:35] <hannie> yes, because some chapters are very big
[15:36] <hobgoblin> I think I got as far as getting latex or whatver it's called and trying to get the thing from bzr
[15:36] <hannie> Did you get the branch to your computer (Projects/ubuntu-manual-precise)?
[15:37] <hobgoblin> yea
[15:37] <hobgoblin> but it's not been updated since I grabbed it
[15:37] <hannie> that's great. Once you have installed Latex Live you can generate the pdf file from the .tex files
[15:38] <hannie> you can update it daily by giving the command bzr pull
[15:38] <hobgoblin> I stopped for some reason - can;t remember now
[15:38] <hannie> It is fun to see how the pdf file grows. Most screenshots are added now
[15:39] <hobgoblin> oh yea - it's grabbing it now
[15:39] <hobgoblin> done
[15:39] <hannie> good. Then you can give the command "make"
[15:40] <hannie> in the /Projects/ubuntu-manual-precise directory
[15:40] <hobgoblin> that failed
[15:40] <hobgoblin> /bin/bash: xelatex: command not found
[15:40] <hannie> Have you installed Latex Live?
[15:40] <hobgoblin> I obviously didn't get the latex thing then
[15:40] <hobgoblin> I should look at the screen before typing
[15:40] <hannie> no, and it can take up to 3 hours :(
[15:41] <hobgoblin> oh - well I'll let that cook overnight then
[15:41] <hannie> good. If the instructions are not clear enough, ping me
[15:41] <hobgoblin> I will :)
[15:42] <hobgoblin> I remember what happened now - I had a bunch of issues with bzr that I had to sort out - then didn't get any further
[15:44] <hannie> ok, but now bzr is ok I guess
[15:44] <hobgoblin> yep
[15:44] <hobgoblin> well I started latex live off now
[15:45] <hannie> so the last thing to do is get latex live. Tomorrow you can let me know if it is installed
[15:45] <hobgoblin> yep :)
[15:45] <hannie> I'll be gone in a minute. See you all guys
[15:45] <hobgoblin> cya - good to see you hannie :)
[15:46] <hannie> :)
[17:55] <wildmanne39> hey hobgoblin
[19:15] <hobgoblin> evening :)
[19:16] <cortman> g'dye hobgoblin
[19:17]  * hobgoblin installed texlive 
[19:17] <hobgoblin> removed it - reinstall it somewhere else - id it wrong I guess as it was almost 4Gb :p
[19:18] <cortman> Yep
[19:18] <cortman> I did the same thing once
[19:18] <cortman> lol it is enormous
[19:22] <hobgoblin> smaller this time - fiddled with it - 520Mb
[20:21] <cortman> It's the language packs I think
[20:23] <hobgoblin> possibly
[20:24] <cortman> What are you planning to use tex for?
[20:24] <hobgoblin> I'm looking at helping with ubuntu manual
[20:24] <hobgoblin> unless xubuntu docs takes an enormous amount of my time
[20:29] <cortman> Terrific- not letting grass grow under your feet it appears :)
[20:29] <wildmanne39> did anyone figure out how to get color text to work in a wiki?
[20:30] <hobgoblin> cortman asked in -docs
[20:32] <wildmanne39> okay I am stuck on converting a thread until we get it figured out because italic's do not work either
[20:32] <cortman> Yes- hannie gave me an email address of a doc team head honcho
[20:32] <cortman> I'm going to email him and see what he says
[20:33] <wildmanne39> sounds good
[20:33] <wildmanne39> I thought may be the color text was just me
[20:33] <cortman> Nope
[20:34] <cortman> There's a couple launchpad bugs to the effect, re the italics and a few other things
[20:34] <cortman> but they get no attention
[20:35] <wildmanne39> I tried italic's in December of last you and could not get them to work but it was my first attempt
[20:41] <cortman> Yep. We'll get it figured out.
[20:41] <hobgoblin> I suspect it has been broken for a long time
[20:42] <hobgoblin> and if the move to sumo actually gains speed they'll likely ignore it
[20:42] <cortman> Probably
[20:43] <cortman> sumo?
[20:45] <hobgoblin> quote from in -docs a while ago " All I knew was mhall119 wanted help going to Sumo? I personally would love to see wiki running something other than moin moin its being the bain of my existence due to its limited markup"
[20:45] <cortman> haha
[20:45] <cortman> moinmoin is definitely closer to bane than blessing IMHO, but no experience with sumo.
[20:45] <hobgoblin> apparently it is what mozilla use
[20:45] <hobgoblin> or something like that :)
[20:46] <cortman> Oh ok.
[20:46] <hobgoblin> SUMO is a django app that runs support.mozilla.org
[20:46] <hobgoblin> apparently
[20:47] <hobgoblin> but it's not something we need to worry about - or so we were told
[20:47] <cortman> That's what "they" want us to think
[20:47] <hobgoblin> lol
[20:47] <hobgoblin> I haz logz
[20:48] <cortman> Whoa
[20:48] <cortman> Expect a visit from "them" sometime in the dead of night.
[20:48] <cortman> hobgoblin has the tapes
[20:48] <cortman> :)
[20:49] <hobgoblin> :p
