SilverlionMrChrisDruif: i have no idea?22:11
Silverlion;)22:11
akgraner:-)22:15
Silverlionhey amber ^^22:15
SilverlionJoseeAntonioR: can you repeat your question so that akgraner knows of it too ^^22:15
akgranerWe've discussed it off and on but we do well to publish the version we have - but welcome other formats22:15
akgranerJoseeAntonioR, that's a cool idea - man Silverlion you got asked to be on Ubuntu On Air before I did...Go you!22:15
Silverlioni am getting redfaced right know :(22:16
Silverlionsurely ... just need to know what you folks want to know ;)22:17
akgranerMrChrisDruif, if you want to take a look at an issue and figure how Silverlion can help us produce a weekly ebook version and what resources it would take - that would be awesome22:17
akgranerJoseeAntonioR, :-P22:18
Silverlionakgraner: oh wait ^^ i am not going to help in here. i am bearly getting my job done at FCM so22:18
akgraner:-)22:18
MrChrisDruifakgraner; I'd love to. Silverlion; would you be able to send me some reading material I can go through so I know what is needed?22:20
akgranerSilverlion, I understand - I guess we need someone to learn how to do it, document the steps then teach the team22:20
Silverlionit is already been documented22:20
akgranerMrChrisDruif, awesome! Thank you22:20
akgranerSilverlion, no the specific sets for UWN22:20
akgraneronce someone learns it - so if needed we can create scripts but first we have to have the step22:21
akgranersteps22:21
Silverlionakgraner: all you need is a wysiwyg editor for html, and the Software Sigil (and software of your choice to reduce photos / screenshots if needed ;)22:22
akgranerwe don't use photo's soo that removes a step :-)22:25
Silverlionthen - I'll think I could teach you the rest in 15 mins from now :D22:26
Silverlionlive on air ;)22:26
akgranerMrChrisDruif, if you can use say last weeks edition and get the instructions from Silverlion would you experiment with formats and stuff? - I'll email pleia2 and nhandler and the others and see what everyone thinks once you have some mock-ups?22:26
MrChrisDruifSure22:27
SilverlionMrChrisDruif: how is your knowledge about CSS?22:27
akgranerSilverlion, thanks...22:27
MrChrisDruifTerrible =)22:27
SilverlionMrChrisDruif: are you tired yet ;)22:28
Silverlion??22:28
MrChrisDruifYes, and I'm off to bed anyways22:28
Silverlionok ^^22:28
akgranerMrChrisDruif, let me get you the link to all the manual steps to creating and publishing UWN so you know how specific the steps need to be when listing how to do something (you may know already but I'll find them for you as an example) - this is how nhandler and pleia2 were able to do the scripts22:29
akgranerThanks y'all!22:29
SilverlionMrChrisDruif: here is some reading material you asked for!22:29
Silverlionhttp://dl.fullcirclemagazine.org/issue61_en.pdf << starting from page 38 is my article on what i do for FCM22:30

akgranerSilverlion, let's do this tomorrow or Sunday this is going to take me a while I think :-)23:50
gonyerewhat are you working on?23:51
akgranerTrying to install Qt 4 and compile it on Ubuntu23:52
akgranerand I've never compiled anything before23:52
Silverliongonyere: i have offered akgraner to learn how to layout the UWN as Ebook in less then 45 mins - and we failed ... my faults23:53
gonyereahh23:54
akgranerno not your fault - how were you supposed to know I wasn't familar with compiling :-)23:54
akgranerI'll figure it out and then share what I learned23:54
gonyerewhat does one use to do so?23:54
Silverliongonyere: nothing but a software called SIGIL (and a wysiwyg editor if you are not familiar with HTML)23:55
Silverlionand SIGIL is causing the problems23:55
Silverlion:(23:55
gonyerehmm23:56
akgraneroh wait - I just read  - Compiling Qt directly should not be necessary. Nevertheless, if you wish to compile Qt, you should configure it before compiling like this:23:56
akgranerso are you sure I have23:56
akgranertoo23:56
Silverlionakgraner: i dont know23:59
Silverlioni am less capabale then you when it comes to this23:59
Silverlioni am running a windows machine23:59
