[17:31] Minutes: http://ubottu.com/meetingology/logs/ubuntu-doc/2015/ubuntu-doc.2015-04-07-17.30.moin.txt [17:32] dsmythies, what room is it in? [17:33] it is in commit_message_cover.txt [17:33] opps... [17:33] it is in #ubuntu-meeting-2 [18:32] For those that attnded the Doc team meeting: Thanks. [18:37] GunnarHj: did you notcie new format on askubuntu.com? It is not as obvious to me now, just by glancing, when a question has no answer. [18:37] dsmythies: I'm still in another meeting. Can we talk in a few minutes? [18:52] GunnarHj: I forgot you mentioned another meeting. It doesn't matter. I'll probably be off-line when you become free. [18:56] dsmythies: We are done soon. I didn't quite understand what you mean. "When a question has no answer"? [18:57] the meeting time has been change in the wiki and the fridge calendar [19:12] pmatulis: I am so dense. For me it will be 9:00 in summer and 8:00 in winter. Not 8:00 and 7:00, as I was saying in the meeting. [19:22] dsmythies: alright, better! [19:24] dsmythies: Now I'm ready to talk about Ask Ubuntu, if you like. [19:27] dsmythies: To me it looks as if the second column states the number of answers, so 0 (zero) means that there is no answer yet. [19:27] guys, who maintains the installation guide? [20:11] pmatulis: Nobody maintains the installation guide. After much work, I had someone interested but they became overwhelmed and bailed. I've done some things, so that I could at least build it. [20:12] GannarHj: askubuntu.com used to be obvious as to unanswered via colour, that changed. The columns are the same as before, as far as I recall. [20:21] dsmythies: ok, we (the team) should try to improve the situation [20:21] dsmythies: Right, the colored circle when unanswered is gone. But the zero is still pretty obvious, isn't it? [22:48] exit [22:49] Hello all. Can someone give me a help in regard to LP + Bazaar + Git + stuff related? [22:50] gsilva, ask your question and we'll see [22:51] Well, as TL of wiki & docs of Lubuntu, I am trying to (finally) create the Lubuntu manual. To do this effectively, I think it is best to use the "code" tab in Launchpad [22:51] However, I've never worked with these type of tools in my life and I'm not a power user [22:52] setting up a repository isn't hard, but you have to set up a lot more than that [22:52] eg. what markup are you using? [22:53] how do you expect to ship the documentation? [22:53] Exactly, I have no idea what you're talking about [22:53] lol [22:54] then maybe you should consider those questions before you start setting the tools up [22:55] Well, I want to keep things as simple as possible [22:55] I'm not a power user, so I have no idea what markups do I have available nor the possibilities to ship information [22:56] well the other question is non-technical... [22:56] do you want a package that is shipped with lubuntu, or will the documentation exist online? or both? [22:57] exist online [22:57] if it's a package, how do you want it to appear? readable by a web browser or something else? [22:57] then more non-technical level questions: is there a reason why you wouldn't use a wiki? [22:58] do you want to enforce the formatting, or can it be more free-formatted? [22:58] who would contribute to the documentation: anybody (including users) or only team members? [22:59] Because a manual looks way much prettier and decent. [22:59] Enforce formatting [22:59] Team members [23:00] practically there is no reason why a wiki couldn't look pretty and decent too, though.. [23:00] anyway, looks like you want a markup language that can be converted to html with stylesheets [23:03] I see [23:04] thanks for helping [23:04] I'll try and see the best way [23:04] you might want to see how xubuntu does it, using docbook [23:05] we produce both a package (with files readable from a browser) and upload them online [23:05] https://launchpad.net/xubuntu-docs for the source project [23:05] http://docs.xubuntu.org/1410/ for what the output looks [23:06] thanks [23:06] np
