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