[04:37] <roasted> hello friends. I am curious about what features are going into the new file manager. Is this channel a place for that or is there one better suited?
[06:25] <ikonia> roasted: what new file manager ?
[06:26] <ikonia> is it in 14.10 ?
[08:04] <lordievader> Good morning.
[10:07] <BluesKaj> 'Morning folks
[13:02] <roasted> ikonia: the new file manager coming with Unity 8.
[13:07] <ikonia> roasted: any info on it ?
[13:07] <ikonia> is it in 14.10 ?
[13:08] <roasted> ikonia: I don't think it's dependent upon 14.10, but moreso Unity 8 than anything else. It sounds like they're just taking the Unity file manager on Ubuntu Touch and ramping it up with more features for desktop use.
[13:08] <roasted> omgubuntu mentioned it in February http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2014/02/ubuntu-create-new-file-manager-unity
[13:09] <ikonia> ahhh omgubuntu = zero credibilityu
[13:09] <ikonia> (that's not to suggest it's wrong)
[13:10] <ikonia> so there is no info on it at all
[13:10] <ikonia> there are just thoughts about possiblity doing something
[13:10] <ikonia> not even a confirmation that it will happen
[13:11] <roasted> ikonia: I seem to recall there being discussion about it on G+, so I'd certainly consider this to be a project moving forward.
[13:11] <ikonia> yet there appears to be nothing a quick google search showing confirmation
[13:12] <roasted> well, okay.
[13:12] <roasted> either way, it's what I'm curious about. Is this channel for that?
[13:12] <ikonia> this is for 14.10 discussion
[13:12] <roasted> where would be suitable for, say, Unity 8 discussion?
[13:12] <roasted> or is that a mailing list thing asof now?
[13:12] <ikonia> well, I don't see why not to an extent as it's trying to be targeted for 14.10 ?
[13:13] <ikonia> unity 8 in generl, probably not as a "I think it's cool" type thing
[13:13] <ikonia> but how it fits / doesn't fit into 14.10 sure, seems worthwhile
[13:14] <TJ-> It's in active development, see https://launchpad.net/ubuntu-filemanager-app
[13:14] <roasted> oh, nice. Thanks TJ-!
[13:15] <ikonia> looks like that's the phone app
[13:15] <ikonia> if you read the wiki it redirects to
[13:15] <TJ-> It's for desktop dash, and phone
[13:16] <roasted> ikonia: it originated from phone, but as I understand is being beefed up for desktop use to replace Nautilus upon Unity 8's arrival.
[13:16] <ikonia> wiki could probably use an update or two
[13:16] <TJ-> http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-filemanager-dev/ubuntu-filemanager-app/trunk/view/head:/README
[13:17] <ikonia> TJ-: sad that the README contains more than the wiki
[13:18] <TJ-> ikonia: The problem is with Ubuntu now, most Canonical development is focused on phone/tablet/devices they can earn royalties on, and is also being done out of the main-stream public development eye. There's a lot of discontent amongst non Ubuntu developers at times over that
[13:18] <TJ-> ikonia: I don't agree; I'd expect the source-code to be the prime source of the latest information
[13:18] <TJ-> s/non Ubuntu/non Canonical/
[13:18] <ikonia> TJ-: reading through the source code to find out a target platform isn't really something I'd expect when there is supposed to be a project wiki page with at least a current overview
[13:27] <TJ-> That's F/OSS development all over :)
[20:20] <Fyodorovna> Have not gotten a update on the daily for awhile using this link, not sure the issue. zsync http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/utopic-desktop-amd64.iso.zsync
[20:29] <Pici> Fyodorovna: thats because the amd64 build didn't pass testing.
[20:35] <Fyodorovna> Pici, Thanks, not an issue just curious, the OS is a bit funkier than I have seen for awhile, but no biggie that is the fun part. ;)
