zygahey :-)15:07
zygadholbach: you've changed :>15:07
m6569101303Does Cordova+Oxide support the Grid Unit?15:08
JoshStroblQUESTION: Anything exciting coming to the HTML5 + Javascript APIs for Ubuntu Touch / Ubuntu for Devices? I've mainly seen stuff in the mailing list for QML, Qt, etc.15:08
mhall119m6569101303: start your question with QUESTION or it might not be seen15:08
m6569101303QUESTION Does Cordova+Oxide support the Grid Unit?15:08
dholbachzyga, an experiment ;-)15:09
dholbachm6569101303, I'll direct the question at our expert once he's here - shouldn't be much longer15:10
remon1496QUESTION: is there coming a whatsapp app? written in html5 so we can use it on the desktop and the phone simetamiusly15:10
ChloeWolfieGirlQUESTION: where could we see the new designs for Music and is there any plan for the gallery to make it suit the new look and feel and bottom edge?15:10
FROST_stream down?15:10
JoshStroblremon1496, you know, if it was written in qml / js or qt / c++ it'd still be multi-platform15:10
JoshStroblFROST_, no15:10
ChloeWolfieGirlFROST_,  working for me15:11
Knightmare_QUESTION: Do you think that ubuntu touch lack of popular apps that would be found on the apple/google apps store will hurt the commercial launch of the operating system?15:11
JoshStroblKnightmare_, I can watch Youtube, browse Google+, check Gmail, etc. through Ubuntu Touch.15:12
remon1496JoshStrobl good to hear, but since whatsapp is the most populiar messaging on all platforms i would like to so it on ubuntu touch/desktop as well,15:12
JoshStroblKnightmare_, They aren't native apps, but Google doesn't even support Windows Phone.15:12
mhall119remon1496: the problem we'll have with whatsapp is they don't want it used on tablets or desktops, and our whole platform story is that you can use the same apps on all devices15:13
zygafor anyone that wants to see/learn about how some of us code, I'm recording live videos with all of the work that I'm doing on the checkbox application for Ubuntu15:13
nik90zyga: really? Where?15:13
Knightmare_JoshStrobl but the majority of users who use phones today are always moving to the next social media experiment and If they have closed software like whatsapp that will really hurt ubuntu touch's chance in my opinion.15:14
zyganik90: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRGrmUhQo5P9hTbVskIIjoQ15:14
FROST_QUESTION: Yesterday German news portals have announced a "ChinaOS". The government in China has this been commissioned, and it will bring many new features. It is based on Ubuntu, and also be available for mobile devices. Can you confirm that? Or do you know something about this project? Or are you working on it?15:15
zyganik90: specifically https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL2PeEY58_WyemJSNEK7zN7OihTodGnqfV15:15
=== salem_ is now known as _salem
zyganik90: it's mostly python but QML is showing up regularly too15:15
mhall119good luck guys, I'll be back later15:15
zyganik90: and I expect more and more QML in episodes this week15:15
nik90zyga: ooh cool15:16
ChloeWolfieGirlQUESTION: What would make ubuntu touch feel successful to you? is it a failure to you if doesn't ship as many phones as windows or dare I say android, or is it successful as soon as you can do everything you could do on android on UTouch?15:16
JoshStroblChloeWolfieGirl, personally, if Canonical can ship as many phones to consumers as Jolla does with their device, I'd consider it a success.15:17
nshiellQUSTION: What is Ubuntu's relationship with GitHub, are Ubuntu Touch apps on gitHub etc?15:19
ChloeWolfieGirlwe miss kitty kyat xD15:20
remon1496byby kitty15:20
nshiellmy cat used to walk over the keybaord as i typed, he wrote good code15:20
remon1496nshiell genius:P15:20
zygaQUESTION: gallery app and camera's built in gallery (which is little-known) seem redundant, what is the expected evolution of the two components15:21
JoshStroblnshiell, Ubuntu Touch apps are available on Launchpad. GitHub is used in other projects, like Juju.15:21
ChloeWolfieGirlnshiell, +115:21
BabyWombathi all15:23
ChloeWolfieGirlhey BabyWombat15:23
nik90nshiell: also there are many 3rd party ubuntu touch apps available in github like https://github.com/sonrisesoftware/project-dashboard, https://github.com/Bacon2D/Bacon2D etc etc15:23
remon1496QUESTION: is html5 integrated in unity?15:23
remon1496sorry newbie15:24
JoshStroblremon1496, HTML5 is a markup language, do you mean the Javascript APIs?15:24
Knightmare_QUESTION: When will the online accounts integrate with the native/web apps so I don't have to keep entering my credentials?15:24
remon1496JoshStrobl, yes, the API's15:25
BabyWombatwhen will Ubuntu browser replace Firefox?15:26
m6569101303QUESTION to HTML5 Theme devs: Have you thought to create UI components for HTML5 using polymer.js (http://www.polymer-project.org/) as a better alternative to the current ubuntu-html5-theme?15:26
JoshStroblBabyWombat, it won't15:26
BabyWombatwhy not?15:26
JoshStroblm6569101303, meh @ polymer15:26
JoshStroblBabyWombat, why would it?15:26
remon1496BabyWombat, why replace, you can use both?15:27
FROST_QUESTION: Yesterday German news portals have announced a "ChinaOS". The government in China has this been commissioned, and it will bring many new features. It is based on Ubuntu, and also be available for mobile devices. Can you confirm that? Or do you know something about this project? Or are you working on it?15:27
BabyWombatnot replace but be default15:28
remon1496FROST_, a Ubuntu based os for both desktop and phone?15:28
FROST_yes15:29
kasztralQUESTION: will we see a greater convergence between the mobile phone with the desktop (similar to what KDE are working on with kdeconnect)?15:31
remon1496FROST_ , sound interesting, but i don't think they work together with canonical15:31
FROST_Quote the newsportal: The Chinese government has developed the successor of Kylin OS in collaboration with Canonical for desktops and laptops.15:32
JoshStroblFROST_, you literally just said "yes" to it being for both desktop and phone. the quote says desktops and laptops, not phones15:33
BabyWombatwhen will you guys replace default gtk apps with qt/qml ones on the desktop?15:33
nshiellI don't understand the difference at the moement15:33
nshiellThere are already some great QT apps15:34
FROST_With OS China, the Chinese government presented an operating system for mobile phones, tablets and other devices. A first promo video gives a meaningful insight into the strange familiar system. Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bvv-eXIcQug15:34
Knightmare_But then you have a chicken and egg scenario. Who will buy a phone that doesnt have popular apps on it?15:36
katrevendishello15:37
remon1496knightmare_ youv got a point there, but i think the chinse will clone the populair apps:P15:38
Knightmare_lol :D15:38
katrevendiswhy protools is not compatible on ubuntu15:39
katrevendis?15:39
JoshStroblkatrevendis, what?15:39
JoshStroblkatrevendis, your question made no sense15:41
katrevendisi tried installed protools on ubuntu but its does not allowed15:41
JoshStrobloh you mean Pro Tools the software15:41
katrevendisyesh the DAW15:41
JoshStroblkatrevendis, Linux isn't a supported platform for Pro Tools.15:42
JoshStroblkatrevendis, it has nothing to do with Ubuntu, it has to do with the fact the Pro Tools developers don't support Linux.15:42
katrevendiswow i really understand you all guys15:43
katrevendisthnaks for good15:43
katrevendisso what about the Adobe Audition15:43
FROST_thanks :)15:43
JoshStroblkatrevendis, if it doesn't support Linux and doesn't work in WINE, then it just doesn't work. once again, this is an issue with the developers, not Ubuntu.15:44
dbarth__sorry i had to leave; thanks everyone15:44
katrevendisokay i get it15:44
BabyWombatwhy is Qt Ubuntu's SDK if Ubuntu Desktop default apps are GTK apps15:44
jnxdQUESTION: RTM status? Last I heard it was scheduled for the 28th.15:44
m6569101303QUESTION once more about Grid Unit in Cordova/Oxide: Is it very difficult to implement something as window.Unity.units.gu() ?15:44
Knightmare_QUESTION: Will appArmor be employed as part of the security model on Ubuntu Touch?15:45
JoshStrobljnxd, the RTM silos are already being used and synced15:45
JoshStroblKnightmare_, I believe apps are already constrained with AppArmor.15:45
Knightmare_oh cool thanks for letting me know JoshStrobl15:45
jnxdsilos?15:46
JoshStrobljnxd, RTM silos are testing silos where code merge and automated testing occurs. if you are asking WHEN the OS will be released to manufacturers, I doubt you'll get an answer.15:47
nshiellThanks, I was asking as lots of people seem to like using it these days15:47
ChloeWolfieGirlQUESTION could you talk about any agreements you have with other companys and ubuntu touch, we know VLC is coming but any updates and are there any new agreements you can talk about?15:48
BabyWombatGnome desktop apps are evolving in a way that you won't be able integrate in Ubuntu in the future, when will you replace them?15:49
jnxdThanks, JoshStrobl. I am trying to port Ubuntu Touch to my Xperia L. Do you suggest I should wait for the RTM, or there won't be a geat advantage ?15:50
FROST_i must leave now, thanks everyone15:50
remon1496kdeconnect is interesting..15:50
JoshStrobljnxd, there won't be a difference really. RTM silos will just have specific patches for officially supported devices from OEMs.15:50
remon1496https://community.kde.org/KDEConnect15:51
jnxdJoshStrobl, thanks again15:51
JoshStrobljnxd, np15:51
ChloeWolfieGirlQUESTION:how and why is Ubuntu and Ubuntu touch so awesome15:55
ChloeWolfieGirlQUESTION: I love Unity, I love the new Gnome, Could you grab Unity and Gnome and smash them together to make the ultimate desktop?15:56
JoshStroblpopey, don't forget you can follow the mailing list!15:58
JoshStroblQUESTION: popey, when is your next chicken chasing session?16:00
