rickspencer3that should be relatively simple, for example00:00
rickspencer3I could probably do that nowish ;)00:00
rickspencer3put some colors along the bottom and set the opacity to like .800:00
mhall119that would probably get a lot of people's interest00:00
mhall119lots of geek parents out there00:01
rickspencer3mhall119, except, err ...00:01
rickspencer3did you see the screenshot at the bottom of the blog posting?00:01
mhall119yeah00:01
rickspencer3apparently I am pretty good at breaking my system00:01
mhall119does it do that when running in a desktop window too?00:01
mhall119or just on a device?00:01
rickspencer3mhall119, just on my Nexus 700:01
rickspencer3whenever I touch the context object of the canvas, that happens00:02
mhall119could be hardware related00:03
mhall119depending on how Qt's Canvas is accessing the screen00:03
mhall119a bad driver or something00:03
rickspencer3yeah00:03
rickspencer3there are some settings on the canvas that I could play with00:03
rickspencer3but would be better to have an engineer debug it00:04

jono_mhall119, I think a finger painting app would be popular00:05
jono_this reminds us, we need to discuss getting some of the cream of the crop of the apps on the default image too00:05
jono_e.g. the stock tracking app00:06
mhall119jono_: we're already started the process, we have a new PPA for those apps, and once we have installable packages bfiller and his team can review them for inclusion00:07
jono_mhall119, oh awesome, nice work :-)00:07
jono_mhall119, did you and discuss anything re. the app showdown while I was away?00:08
jono_I really want to keep this momentum flowing00:08
mhall119not regarding a contest no00:08

mhall119I can't believe that only took 20 minutes00:27
rickspencer3mhall119, I made a slight change to make the background white00:27
rickspencer3mhall119, well, it took me a little while longer to make the InkCanvas ;)00:27
rickspencer3but yeah, good components = productivity00:28
mhall119I can see InkCanvas being very useful00:28
mhall119I wonder if it could be incorporated into the Notes app00:28
rickspencer3mhall119, well, it's pure QML00:28

rickspencer3mhall119, should I put up a quick blog post about FingerPaint?00:29
rickspencer3while I wait for my Nexus7 to update so I can try it there?00:30
mhall119rickspencer3: yeah, and if you can give a description of the code and how it works, I'll link it on developer.u.c too00:32
rickspencer3mhall119, which part of the code?00:32
rickspencer3InkCanvas is a bit complicated00:32
mhall119yeah, it probably is...00:32
mhall119how about how to use InkCanvas, and just links to download InkCanvas itself00:33

mardyis there a tutorial or guide explaining how to setup pbuilder for Ubuntu Touch?07:56
seb128mardy, ubuntu or ubuntu touch, should be only sources.list differences no?07:59
mardyseb128: mostly yes, but I need to tell pbuilder to build for armhf08:00
pdeyPorting question: is having the kernel sources/config for the target device mandatory?  I'm trying to port Ubuntu Touch to a device with no sources, and CM10 hasn't been ported yet either.08:25
Namidairopdey: well considering that you need to change things in the defconfig, kernel sources would probably be plus :)08:28
pdeyNamidairo: are the chances of getting it running on the stock kernel .. slim-to-nil?08:29
Namidairoit might run, but i suspect that the inbuilt browser won't work08:29
Namidairoor the wifi in general08:29
pdeyI thought Ubuntu was running in a chroot though... wouldn't the wifi drivers,etc already be loaded by the outer Android part?08:30
Namidairo"Without paranoid_network disabled, the browser won't work correctly"08:31
pdeyah, right.08:31
pdeyshame there's no way to extract the config from a kernel binary08:32

Mirvlool: is the ubuntu-ui-toolkit upload for raring still planned, or will we rely on PPA updates only?11:01

=== MacSlow is now known as MacSlow|lunch
loolMirv: hey; sorry, I think I got confused because we discussed setting up dailies and then I stopped thinking about uploading it12:07
loolMirv: I just took a look; the changes are fairly large, did this pass QA in some way?12:07
loolMirv: (I'm looking at .38...42)12:08
Mirvlool: all merges are reviewed at least, and everyone uses now the 0.1.42 as it's in the PPA12:08
Mirvfor both precise, quantal and raring users12:08
Mirvmaybe the bzr417 would be a safe bet, ie when 0.1.42 was released to the PPA. there are three commits after that as well.12:09
=== MacSlow|lunch is now known as MacSlow
Mirvalso the raring touch images used the PPA12:10
loolMirv: I'm fine taking r420 or r417; if r420 then we ought to bump the version number12:12
lool(IIUC 0.1.42 was uploaded to the PPA with r417)12:12
Mirvlool: I'd take r417 since it's released as defined by sdk team12:13
loolMirv: well, why don't I just take the PPA .dsc and sponsor that12:13
Mirvlool: true, just fixing the jenkins auto-changelog is needed12:14
Mirvhmm, it's also a native package it seems12:15
loolMirv: which auto-changelog would need fixing?12:15
Mirvlool: removing the "Automatic build of revision 417" from dget https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-sdk-team/+archive/ppa/+files/ubuntu-ui-toolkit_0.1.42%7Eraring1.dsc12:15
loolMirv: if it needs any change, then it's probably better to have them in bzr and I sponsor from that, but that would suck in r42012:16
loolI can't remove the changelog entry without repacking a tarball12:16
looloh well, nobody released a 0.1.42 tarball anyway12:17
Mirvlool: so how about  lp:~timo-jyrinki/ubuntu-ui-toolkit/bzr417 ? I did bzr uncommit three times from trunk :)12:17
Mirveither that or cleaning the jenkins added entry12:18
loolMirv: erf, I can do that (bzr co -r 417 BTW), I just wanted to avoid generating a new tarball12:18
Mirvlool: right, well that's needed anyhow12:18
loolbut since I'd have to change the one from the PPA, I guess it's fine if I just rebuild from r417 or from the PPA source12:18
Mirvbecause of the jenkins mangling12:18
loolsorry it's bzr revert -r 417 not co12:19
didrocksMirv: after that release, do you mind preparing for daily release in S?12:20
didrocksMirv: then adding the stack to head and so on?12:20
loolMirv: uploaded r417 of lp:ubuntu-ui-toolkit12:20
loolI compared to the PPA .dsc and the only delta was debian/changelog12:20
lool(jenkins entry)12:20
Mirvlool: just out of interested I checked manually what's the difference between pure 417 and the jenkins upload: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/5712997/12:21
Mirvlool: ok, great12:21
Mirvdidrocks: AFAIK I did all from https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DailyRelease/InlinePackaging some weeks ago already to lp:ubuntu-ui-toolkit12:21
didrocksMirv: hum, it's a native package and I don't see the bootstrap commit12:22
Mirvbut I haven't got the big picture of what the daily release needs12:22
Mirvah, so that's missing12:23
didrocksMirv: if you wait to complete the guideline to make that more clear ^ :)12:23
didrocksMirv: before doing those changes, we should diverge between a raring branch and the new trunk, isn't it?12:24
Mirvdidrocks: I have a vague memory that I asked you or someone about the need to push that "/inline-packaging", and the answer was (maybe) that not needed since it's already native package or something. but certainly at least the "Getting it ready for autolanding" (bootstrapping) hasn't been done yet12:24
didrocksMirv: would be nice to not have a native package versionning scheme, just to follow all other packages we have12:25
Mirvdidrocks: yes we should12:25
didrocksMirv: I'm happy to revisit that later on, but at least, that enables to have real "upstream" tarballs12:25
didrocks(without the debian/ dir)12:25
didrocksMirv: apart from that, just had a quick look, everything's fine :)12:26
didrocksMirv: once done, just ping me, we can add this together to the S branch ;)12:26
Mirvok, I'm pushing the raring branch first, then preparing a merge request for bootstrapping and non-native package12:27
didrocksMirv: excellent, you are creating a raring series?12:28
Mirvdidrocks: yes12:28

nik90mesq: thnx..I have asked another developer to work on it...should be done by today hopefully13:36
jaduncan_but that's admittedly a roundabout way to do it13:36
mhall119jaduncan_: I'm sure some body could write a VNC app in Qt that will work without X1113:36

nik90mesq: ah ok..np13:37
jaduncan_mhall119: I mean to connect to the X11 server with. I think this is currently too edge case a thing to do, and I have the desktop image of Ubuntu for the N7. I think I'll just have to try and heavily cut down the memory usage on that.13:38

didrockssergiusens: I need to rethink, there were multiple good reasons to not list them15:43
didrockssergiusens: so I need to draw a map :)15:43
sergiusensdidrocks: yes, let's hangout tomorrow15:43
sergiusensdidrocks: it might turn out to be acceptable loss until we land in distro15:43
=== francisco is now known as Guest86369
didrockssergiusens: yeah, I want to ensure I'm listing every consequences, but for that, I need a fresh brain ;)15:44
rsalvetisergiusens: right15:45
rsalvetisergiusens: the problem is telling what actually changed in an automatic way15:46
rsalvetias the changlog will be kind of useless15:46
=== jhodapp is now known as jhodapp|bbiab
mterrysergiusens, were you working on the branch to add autopilot dep packages to the cu2d configs?15:49
didrocksogra_: btw, from your image you are shipping the ffmepg codec15:50
didrocksogra_: which is not very cool, can you help sil2100 and renato on that one?15:51
ogra_didrocks, how do you mean ?15:51
mterrydidrocks, do you know what happened to the branch to add autopilot dep packages to the cu2d configs?15:51
ogra_didrocks, which image ?15:51
didrocksogra_: ffmepg is shipped through the media-app15:51
* ogra_ isnt aware of any ffmpeg 15:51
didrocksgstreamer0.10 ffmepg codec15:52
ogra_didrocks, well, i dont have anty access to the OBS system, talk to sergiusens or rsalveti ... i'm working on the distro builds15:52
ogra_unless they finally switched to use our seeds15:52
sil2100Adding this to auto-join15:52
fginthermterry, I'm working on changes to add the stack ppa, so hopefully we'll only be out of sync for another day or two.15:52
didrockssergiusens: rsalveti ^15:53
mterryfginther, ok15:53
didrocksogra_: I thought you have deep knowledge of the image, sorry :)15:53
ogra_if thats in our seeds i'll happily change it though :)15:53
ogra_didrocks, not of the black hole that the OBS image build system is15:53
ogra_didrocks, ask me anything about official builds :)15:53
didrocksogra_: I think it's a dep of the media-app15:53
didrocksisn't it sil2100?15:54
sil2100gstreamer-ffmpeg?15:54
ogra_didrocks, i think thats actually jhodapp|bbiab country15:54
didrockssil2100: yep, what's pulling it?15:54
sil2100didrocks, ogra_: the mediaplayer-app package has a hard dep on it15:55
sil2100gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg15:55
ogra_right, jhodapp then15:55
sil2100I poked renato about that, since he's one of the devs there, so I had a chat about the usage of that15:55
sil2100And as mentioned on a different channel, they're using it for thumbnail creation for now because of the various codecs it supports15:56
ogra_if it is only used for that, whats wrong with having it ?15:56
ogra_or does it get in your way anyhow ?15:56
ogra_(seems to be fine license wise)15:57
sil2100Well, it's in universe, so we'll be pulling universe deps for a main package - also didrocks mentioned that the license seems to be confusing?15:57
ogra_erm15:57
ogra_nearly everything of touch is currebntly in universe :)15:57
didrocksogra_: we can't ship it, it's having some codecs that are legally weird15:58
didrocksogra_: it's like vlc15:58
ogra_and if it is in universe the lic3ense needs to be fine15:58
ogra_didrocks, if they were actually legally weird that package would be in multiverse15:58
ogra_unless someone made a fatal error nobody noticed over the last years15:59
didrocksogra_: do you mind checking with the release/security team? for me always ffmepg always was -> danger15:59
didrocksogra_: that would be helpful, I'm not fully knowledgeable about this, but seb128 confirmed as well15:59
seb128ogra_, the issue is not license, it's patents16:00
ogra_well, i'd like to leave it to the guys that depend on it ... after all they will need a MIR in S16:00
ogra_seb128, aha ! thats different :)16:00
sil2100Same here, not really super knowledgable about that,16:00
seb128ogra_, still a good reason to not have it on the CD16:00
ogra_right16:00
ogra_well, tallk to jhodapp ... he maintains the media stack afaik16:01
sil2100ogra_, didrocks: maybe we could ask the mediaplayer-app guys to rewrite it that it would Suggest -ffmpeg -> if not installed, no thumbnails would be available16:01
ogra_(but really dont worry about usniverse vs main atm, that will only become relevant once everything can be built from the archive)16:01
didrockssil2100: ok, let's add everything, can you add a big warning for the mediaplayer-app in the spreasheet and starts the conversation?16:02
ogra_(jhodapp seems to be back  soon, i saw him saying ~1h in another channel, just wait fior him)16:03
ogra_might be it is easy to just drop it ... who knows16:04
sil2100Ok16:04
* ogra_ has no clue about multimedia :) i'm just the image build bitch 16:04
sil2100As mentioned before, I had a talk with renato and he said something like: "maybe I can use other gst codes but I am not sure, and depends of what kind of video the user want to play"16:04
ogra_well, dont we support video thumbnails in the desktop today ?16:05
ogra_what does nautilus use atm ?16:05
ogra_seb128, ^^16:05
seb128ogra_, totem-video-thumbnail16:05
seb128totem-video-thumbnailer16:05
ogra_and what does that use in the back ?16:06
seb128gstreamer16:06
ogra_there must be soem gst16:06
ogra_right16:06
ogra_i think the mediaplayer should just use what we use today ... so wont need a MIR etc16:06
ogra_not sure how much work that is16:07
didrockssil2100: ok, approved, let's deploy that tomorrow, ok?16:11
sil2100didrocks: oh, ok ;) Let's see if we can get it removed as well16:17
sil2100Thanks!16:17
didrockssil2100: indeed :)16:17

jhodappogra_, back16:45
ogra_jhodapp, sil2100, seb128 and didrocks had some concerns about using ffmpeg16:45
ogra_seems there are possible patent issues with using it16:46
sil2100o/16:48
sil2100Regarding mediaplayer-app16:48
jhodappogra_, yeah, as someone above mentioned, we're using it for creating previews16:48
jhodappogra_, however, we have nearly every license paid for and officially licensed is what I was told16:49
mptJust posted initial design for accessing SIM services: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PhoneApp#Settings16:49
ogra_jhodapp, well, talk to the guys complaining :)16:50
jhodappogra_, lol...and this might get tricky...there could potentially be that we can ship certain things with a phone or tablet but not on the desktop16:51
sil2100jhodapp: maybe we could somehow make it a loose-requirement?16:52
sil2100i.e. if it's there, use it - if not, maybe disable previews or use something different?16:53
jhodappsil2100, I can't answer that, that's up to the design team16:54
=== arthurm is now known as artmello
bzoltan1 rickspencer3:  not as I know. Just use the "Debug" menu items... you can set a breakpoint to your code and do the normal debugging16:58
sil2100jhodapp: who from design should I poke for some answers? Is JohnLea the right person? ;)16:58
rickspencer3bzoltan1, I clicked on projects in QtCreator and changed the debugger port to a different port, and it started working16:58
rickspencer3sil2100, what's it concerned?16:58
bzoltan1rickspencer3:  that is good :) for me it works out of box16:59
jhodappsil2100, I'd poke Calum16:59
rickspencer3bzoltan1, are there any XmlListModel mavens?16:59
sil2100rickspencer3: hi! So, the thing is that mediaplayer-app currently is using gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg to generate the previews (thumbnails), while we would prefer not to require gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg if we are to ship the mediaplayer-app and others by default17:00
rickspencer3I'm struggling to make what looks like simple xml parsing to work17:00
jhodappsil2100, and if necessary, he'll poke someone else...certainly from a technical perspective your idea is possible, but we shouldn't just try to solve this via technical means in my opinion as it is a legal problem to solve17:00
sil2100Since we would basically have to ship gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg by default - so I've been wondering if we could somehow disable thumbnails or something when it's not installed17:00
sil2100jhodapp: ok, thanks!17:00
rickspencer3sil2100, calum and johnlea are both on my list of contacts for core apps17:00
bzoltan1rickspencer3:  zsombi I would suggest to ask... but he is off already17:01
rickspencer3so, yeah, what jhodapp said17:01
sil2100rickspencer3: thanks, will poke them ;)17:01
jhodappthanks rickspencer317:01
* rickspencer3 shakes fist at XmlListModel17:02
ogra_for convergence it needs to be the same on phone and desktop17:02
rickspencer3it easy when it works, but when it doesn't work, it's really hard to debug17:02
jhodappogra_, exactly17:02
ogra_so we need a solution thts legal17:03
rickspencer3kaleo, bzoltan1 the Tabbed application project template is awesome17:03
jhodappogra_, supposedly there's a list of the codecs that Ubuntu can legally ship somewhere that we have officially licensed...I haven't been able to find that17:03
ogra_yeah17:04
sil2100jhodapp, ogra_: could you guys take a look into that?17:05
ogra_theoretically all thats in main is freely usable17:05
t1mpjppiiroi1en: ^ :)17:05
t1mprickspencer3: I think jp did those templates17:05
rickspencer3jppiiroi1en, o/17:06
rickspencer3:)17:06
jhodappsil2100, look into what part exactly?17:06
t1mpjppiiroi1en: indeed, I'm checking it now, and great stuff to get started with :)17:07
sil2100jhodapp: if we can freely and legally use gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg with no problem (and the codecs that are provided by it)17:08
jhodappsil2100, yeah, it's on my list of tasks somewhere :)17:08
sil2100I'll try to poke design about possible workarounds tomorrow, as I see everyone is EOD already17:09
jhodappsil2100, this is always tricky, wish it wasn't17:09

pmcgowanmzanetti: do you have a debian source package?17:40
pmcgowanthere is an apps ppa17:40
mzanettipmcgowan: yes... I have packaged stuff up17:40
rsalvetiogra_: I think the issue with ffmpeg is just that we might not want it in main due security and maintenance issues17:40
rsalvetibut I believe the license should be ok17:40
mzanettipmcgowan: should I just dput it to the apps ppa?17:41
pmcgowanmzanetti: PPA is https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-touch-coreapps-drivers/+archive/collection17:41
pmcgowanI'd say so17:41
ogra_rsalveti, well, desktop team complained about possible patent issues17:41
mzanettipmcgowan: ok, I'll give it a shot, thanks17:41
rsalvetiogra_: right17:41
rsalvetiogra_: that's hard to fix, and don't think we have any replacement for that17:41
ogra_right17:42
rsalvetito be used in a clean and patent-free way17:42
ogra_but we need something that works on the desktop as well17:42
pmcgowantrying to remember this conversation17:42
rsalvetiwe're probably violating patents all around :-)17:42
mhall119mzanetti: if you can give popey or I link to the source package, we can upload it to the PPA17:42
ogra_haha17:42
pmcgowanis the issue only related to certain decoder implementations?17:42
rsalvetihello world probably violate patents17:42
pmcgowanI though ffmpeg itself was ok17:42
ogra_yeah, looking forward to be sued by apple :P17:42
rsalvetithought so as well17:42
ogra_pmcgowan, gstreamer-ffmpeg is bundled17:42
pmcgowanI assume thats just a plugin for gstreamer17:43
ogra_it contains a huge amount of en/decoders17:43
pmcgowanoh17:43
ogra_it is17:43
ogra_apt-cache show gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg17:43
rsalvetijhodapp: is there a way to not use ffmpeg?17:43
popeyffmpeg has been discussed by the techboard in the past17:43
ogra_look at that output and cry :)17:43
mzanettimhall119: I have pushed the debian package structure to the git repository. so all it takes is to clone it and run debuild somehow on it. is that enough for you or do you need the already built source package?17:44
rsalvetipopey: and what was the conclusion?17:44
jhodapprsalveti, probably, I didn't design the preview code17:44
popeyreject17:44
pmcgowanwow17:44
ogra_rsalveti, totem-thumbnailer apparently works on the desktop today ... i guess if our mediaplayer can mimic what it does it would be ok17:44
rsalvetiogra_: right17:44
popeyiirc17:44
pmcgowanrsalveti: ogra_ why are we talking about ffmpeg anyway17:45
rsalvetijhodapp: who is taking care of that? renato?17:45
pmcgowanneeds to read back17:45
ogra_pmcgowan, because we depend on it in phablet :)17:45
rsalvetipmcgowan: needed to generate thumbnails at the media-app17:45
pmcgowanhmm17:45
ogra_pmcgowan, mediaplayer-app uses it for thumbnailing17:45
popeyi thought we'd sufficiently stripped ffmpeg of the problematic items17:45
popeywhich is why we have so many libav* packages and libav*-extra ones17:45
ogra_popey, its sufficient for universe17:45
pmcgowanpopey: thats definitely possible17:45
popey(it's libav these days, not ffmpeg fwiw)17:46
ogra_popey, but that doesnt make it patent free or easy to maintain security wise17:46

mterrymzanetti, env should be a valid executable.  But whatever, I fixed it another way19:39

SonikkuAmericaDoes Ubuntu Touch's calling feature only work with GSM phones thus far?22:20
rsalvetiSonikkuAmerica: yup22:20
=== SkavenXXI-[OFF] is now known as SkavenXXI
SonikkuAmericaDang... a friend of mine might've been interested... he has a Razr HD... but it's a CDMA phone. (Verizon)22:21
mhall119yeah, being on Verizon sucks for phones22:21
* mhall119 knows22:21
SonikkuAmericaAT&T is America's only reputable GSM carrier (T-Mobile is mainly HSPA+ now)22:23
SonikkuAmericaAnd America thinks they stink.22:24
rickspencer3mhall119, is there any kind of location service built into the SDK yet?22:29
=== XenGi is now known as XenGi_
moocow1452Any idea what the hangup is? http://paste.ubuntu.com/5714506/22:33
moocow1452Hello, anyone know how to fix a build in the room? http://paste.ubuntu.com/5714506/22:48
achiangsergiusens: hey, if i want the latest and greatest bits for a maguro, is it simply just calling phablet-flash?22:48
achiangsergiusens: would that be raring?22:48
achiangrsalveti: ^^22:48
rsalvetiachiang: raring is not yet the default22:49
rsalvetiit'll grab the latest, but still based on quantal22:49
rsalvetiwe're about to switch, but still need to fix a few issues22:49
achiangrsalveti: any benefit going to raring? or safer to just stick w/quantal for now?22:49
rsalvetiachiang: we want to be closer to the archive as we want to start pushing our stuff to s-series once it's open22:50
achiangrsalveti: makes sense, thanks22:50
sergiusensachiang: phablet-flash if you have the raring package... the daily releases sort of messed up my releaser for the other series and need to do it manually (haven't done it still)22:51
achiangsergiusens: np, i'll just grab quantal22:53
achiangthanks22:53
mhall119rickspencer3: there's QtLocation from upstream, I'm not sure how it works though, or if the current images support it23:02
rickspencer3hey mhall23:03
rickspencer3interesting23:03
rickspencer3are their QML bindings for it?23:03
mhall119rickspencer3: I see qtdeclarative5-qtlocation-plugin in raring, but can't find the docs on http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5.0/qtdoc/modules-qml.html23:05
rickspencer3mhall119, yeah23:06
rickspencer3let me poke at it23:06
Orangermhall119: I made a launcher in C++ for docviewer, it's temporary.23:07
mhall119rickspencer3: bzoltan1 might know where docs are23:07
mhall119Oranger: awesome!  Not too difficult to get it passing file paths to the QML I hope23:07
rickspencer3mhall119, well, I'm mostly just skeptical that it's supported yet23:07
Orangermhall119: Oh and I found a way to open plain text direclty in QML with XMLHttpRequest, but for other files we will need to use C++ to open the files23:08
Orangermhall119: Hum actually I can't achieve this, I don't know why but it don't work. Maybe i'm doing something bad I don't know23:08
Orangermhall119: Me idea was to create a new property called commandLineArgument from C++ to QML23:09
Oranger*my23:09
OrangerBut this property seem to be undeclared for QML... so I have to work on it23:10
mhall119Oranger: sounds like a good approach23:15
mhall119XMLHttpRequest probably won't work for local files23:15
Orangermhall119: XMLHttpRequest It is working for me ^^23:16
Oranger-it23:16
mhall119oh, I misunderstood then23:18
=== SkavenXXI is now known as SkavenXXI-[OFF]
Orangermhall119: But in the futur we will not use it :/ Only c++ can open file, not QML+JS23:19
rickspencer3Oranger, mhall119 I think the plan is for the SDK to provide a safe file browser23:24
rickspencer3like a service that lets applications open files23:25
mhall119rickspencer3: yeah, I believe jdstrand and his team were going to do something along those lines23:25
mhall119I didn't think it was going to be built into the SDK though23:25
rickspencer3right23:25
mhall119jdstrand: thoughts?23:25
rickspencer3it's part of the app isolation specification23:25
mhall119right, though when it was initially discussed we were still thinking in terms of python and Gtk23:26
rickspencer3indeed, but I am pretty certain they have moved on23:26
mhall119this actually sounds like a better opportunity for us, since we don't have to get people to un-learn how to access files in QML23:26
Orangerrickspencer3: Oh good23:27
mhall119Oranger: I'll have a chat with jdstrand about long-term solutions, in the mean time we can put this in place for the doc viewer23:27
mhall119and change it once something better is available23:27
Orangermhall119: Ok, sound good23:28
OrangerSo, i'm sorry but I have to go23:28
mhall119Oranger: I'm wondering if it would be easier to sub-class MainView in Qt, add the command line properties and methods for opening/reading files onto that, and use the sub-classed component in the QML23:28
Oranger(1:28 am here ouch)23:29
mhall119Oranger: no problem, we'll chat later23:29
=== moocow1452_ is now known as moocow1452
OrangerHum yes, you have a good idea mhall11923:29
moocow1452Anyone good with mkimage?23:30
Orangermhall119: But why not create a class only made for IO ?23:30
Oranger-IO +opening23:30
mhall119Oranger: it just sounds like more work than is necessary, if we're going to replace it with something else later23:31
Orangermhall119: Yes, I understand23:31
OrangerSo bye mhall119 , we'll talk later !23:32
mhall119g'night Oranger23:34
