[10:11] OK since ubuntustudio-default-settings got in I think not really much work to go on now except testing:D [12:43] good morning everyone :) [12:44] it looks like changes are happening at work, and i expect more free time by the end of this month [12:44] is anyone interested in brainstorming for next cycle and getting blueprints lined out? [12:44] .. [12:45] by the way, len-dt and ailo (and micahg too), you guys rocked some good stuff this cycle [12:45] without your involvement, we would have been basically dead [12:48] scott-work: hey there [12:49] scott-work: I look forward to get my Cadence tools into debian soon [12:49] so I kinda ask, can that be considered on the next meeting or something? [12:49] only for next cycle, of course [12:51] falktx: I'm willing to look through your stuff. We should use your apps and see how they could be useful [12:52] ailo-w: thanks, I'm working hard to finalize them now [12:52] falktx: Are you happy with their current state? Just add your ppa and install them? [12:52] I still need to write their documentation so everyone knows what they do [12:52] what apps? [12:52] ailo-w: I'll create a new PPA just for them in the mean time [12:52] falktx: Good idea. I can help with docs [12:53] the page I use to write the app-docs is here: [12:53] http://kxstudio.sourceforge.net/KXStudio:Applications [12:53] (skip FeSTige and Klaudia) [12:53] falktx: that would be awesome (getting cadence into debian)! [12:53] congratulations :) [12:53] thanks, still lots of work to do though :) [12:54] the calf plugins apparently have a new website (and some new plugins): http://calf.sourceforge.net/index.html [12:54] yes, those are awesome! [12:55] * FloatingGoat is going to try festige [12:55] falktx: I'll make sure to install them and use them for a little while. I'd suggest anyone else to do that too, so we know how they are useful. [12:56] ailo-w: I already have them in kxstudio (as calf-plugins-git package), I assure you they are great [12:56] I need to update to latest git though, there has been lots of fixes recently [13:04] scott-work: I'd give len-dt most of the credit for this cycle, all though, I've been doing preparative work on a few important things, such as Ubuntu Studio developer docs. Things are kind of hectic, so things move painfully slowly for me right now on US development, but I will keep working on whatever I've started. [13:34] falktx: hey can i use festige with qtractor? [13:35] festige is an app, not a plugin [13:35] dssi-vst is there for the job, check the plugins page [13:37] it wont load or something [13:37] hM? [13:39] it doesnt seem to load [13:42] im going to try and work around it [13:42] note that I don't support festige anymore [13:43] everything is going towards the cadence tools [13:43] there is 'Carla' in there which will replace festige soon [13:43] what is cadence? [13:43] I was looking at it and it looks cool [14:57] hi scott-work [14:57] and ailo-w [14:59] Wow er scott-work and ailo you have been praising len-dt ? [14:59] * smartboyhw joins the crowd [15:00] hi smartboyhw [15:00] Hey falktx saw you talking about cadence into debian:D [15:00] scott-work, blueprints....Where are they?:D [15:00] I saw it from today's logs [15:01] i mention it because i wanted to start brainstorming ideas for the blueprints [15:02] scott-work, first idea: To add a "Work hard on Developer Docs" item for ailo :D [15:02] i expect that some tasks from Q will carry over to R, but i would also expect some new tasks [15:03] the current blueprint framework should also be reconsidered...the names and parsing of the blueprints were my construct and might not be the most applicable [15:03] :D [15:04] however, if they work and no one wants to change, delete, or add a particular blueprint topic to better handle particular tasks, then we should definitely explore that [15:04] scott-work, so really nothing to do much for Q now eh?:D [15:10] * smartboyhw hopes he can do all that testing in 14th-18th Oct....Will be quite busy ah! [15:11] there are incidentals we can always work on, e.g. website, documentation [15:11] and always bug fixes that should be looked at [15:11] i am actually setting up two computers on a KVM switch in the game room to help out with testing again [15:12] * scott-work lost his "testing area" from the spare bedroom [15:12] scott-work, :D [15:12] YEAH YEAH YEAH [15:19] scott-work, my testing is kind of slow these days due to a video problem with my machine. [15:20] welcome len-dt look at your praises from ailo, scott-work and me!:D [15:21] There has been an offer of getting the latest gimp paint studio into repos if we are going to include it.The offer came a bit late this cycle, but might be worth considering for R [15:23] * len-dt thanks people for the support, but thinks it is mostly just menu reworking. [15:23] len-dt, I think the new one must be in for R Alpha 1! [15:23] len-dt, come on you worked most hard [15:25] * smartboyhw anyway thanks ailo and len-dt and scott-work for making a wonderful OS. [15:25] scott-work, another item to add to R BP is getting icons set up for any of our own *.desktop or *.directory files [15:25] len-dt: if gimp paint studio was in the repo i would defintely like to include it in the graphics seeds [15:28] i also wish synfig was back in the repos or some other 2d graphics animation application [15:28] * scott-work wonders if pencil ever get into the repos [15:52] apparently it has :) [15:52] i think i will look into using this for a few upcoming projects then [15:56] warning: gimpshop is a scam and virus source [15:56] just in case... [16:00] oho, just realized that synfig was back in ubuntu starting in quantal :D [16:07] scott-work, the person to talk to for gimp paint studio is shnatsel [16:08] He already has it in his own PPA [16:27] i remember shnatsel talking about it and telling me about some of the features (although i can't remember anything specific :P ) [16:27] scott-work, it is an addon to gimp it adds tools to gimp, not another app. [16:28] Makes gimp able to do painting kinds of things as well as touch up etc. [16:29] i remember the feeling that it was a set of tools that bridges gimp to photoshop functionality basically [16:29] I'm not enough of an artist (paint/visual wise) to make good use of it. I like something that can draw shapes. [16:29] i found this just now, which is pretty damn impressive: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1nKnvp2sJww [16:29] (lines, squares, circles) [16:30] another interesting video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rmcvR2yeGbQ [16:31] i wish there would be a blender "paint studio" :P [16:31] well for video [16:31] lower thirds, et al can be made with the node editor but it would be nice have scripts already together for such common things like mainstream video editors [16:32] the hope is lightworks currently for many people to provide this stuff [16:33] Nice video... have to start out with an artist though. I couldn't do that :) === scott-work is now known as Guest22676 [18:55] woah, webchat did some weird stuff and then wouldn't let me log on [19:15] scott-work, two more things to add to 13.04 BP are controls (Which is in progress) and mode change (Len needs to rewrite this in python) [19:25] they actually go together. [19:50] len-dt: i'm going to review the logs and then post a these items to the mailing list for record and to ask others to contribute ideas
