| knome | people around? | 00:21 |
|---|---|---|
| knome | cprofitt, ping :) | 00:24 |
| dsmythies | I'm here. | 00:30 |
| knome | that works ;) | 00:30 |
| knome | no empty wall to talk to | 00:30 |
| knome | so i'd like to get the teams feedback on a particular thing: | 00:31 |
| knome | (this will take some time, wait patiently...) | 00:31 |
| knome | some days ago, i made an edit to the PAE page on the community wiki to make the landing page for that clearer | 00:32 |
| knome | the page: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PAE | 00:32 |
| knome | after the changed i made: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PAE?action=recall&rev=43 | 00:32 |
| knome | the page got reverted soon back to what it was (see ~the current format) shortly after | 00:32 |
| dsmythies | looking at first link now. | 00:32 |
| knome | i've been in touch with the person who apparently created and worked on that page for the longest time | 00:33 |
| knome | but we haven't reached any kind of agreement and i haven't got many arguments why we should keep the "original" formatting | 00:33 |
| knome | note: in my version, the instructions itself would be under PentiumM, which i also slightly edited (that's partly different from my edit now as wel) | 00:34 |
| knome | since the documentation team oversees the community wiki, what do people think about the two different approaches? | 00:35 |
| knome | i guess i'd especially would like feedback from the wiki admins (other than me) | 00:35 |
| knome | but any feedback would be appreciated | 00:35 |
| knome | i'm feel like i'm kind of disqualified to drop any final decision on the issue as a participant in the argument... | 00:36 |
| dsmythies | I need some time (and am not a wiki admin). You might also want to ask on the e-mail list. | 00:36 |
| knome | for completeness, the PentiumM page as it would appear on "my revision": https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PAE/PentiumM?action=recall&rev=10 | 00:37 |
| knome | dsmythies, ack, i know you aren't, that's why i pinged those admins:) | 00:37 |
| knome | and fwiw, i'm not in a hurry by any means, take your time | 00:38 |
| knome | i'm an irc person (and not subbed to the list right now...), so i thought i'd check this one first | 00:38 |
| knome | to see what the general opinion was and if there was any kind of consensus | 00:39 |
| dsmythies | knome: I didn't know you are not subbed to the list. In general I'm not an IRC person, I just didn't get off yet after the meeting earlier. I actually don't understand why IRC is so popluar, but accpet that it is. | 00:42 |
| knome | heh, different people prefer different kind of communication methods :) | 00:43 |
| knome | tbf, email is ok is the signal to noise ratio is good. on the docs list, it wasn't considering all the other noise i also have incoming :) | 00:44 |
| knome | and i'm not exaggerating when i say that connecting on IRC was one of my first actions ever when we got our first broadband | 00:45 |
| knome | after that, it's always just felt the natural choice for me | 00:45 |
| dsmythies | knome: I'm finding this a little difficult, as I observe good stuff in both approaches. I'm going to ponder, while I do something else that is pressing, then read them again. (I should'a kept quite earlier (just joking)) | 01:01 |
| knome | heh. | 01:01 |
| knome | probably. | 01:01 |
| knome | i'm open to suggestions in merging those two as well | 01:01 |
| knome | i mean... doing some kind of compromise. | 01:02 |
| knome | the feedback and thought is very appreciated btw, it's too easy to get biased... i should've asked this earlier. | 01:08 |
| dsmythies | knome: Are you aware of the dicussion thread over on Ubuntu forums? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2263647 | 06:42 |
| knome | dsmythies, nope. | 13:22 |
| dsmythies | imnichol: I haven't forgotten about your issue, but have run into a bit of time crunch. What you want to do is trivial with GIT. I defer to what pmatulis said for BZR. | 21:04 |
| imnichol | dsmythies, appreciated! | 21:08 |
