| dkessel_ | knome: regarding google code-in - i generelly think it's a good idea | 11:49 |
| knome | dkessel_, me too | 12:06 |
| knome | but it needs mentors and somebody thinking what the project is | 12:06 |
| knome | or projects are | 12:06 |
| slickymaster | evening | 17:57 |
| flocculant | evening slickymaster :) | 17:57 |
| flocculant | evening akxwi-dave | 18:26 |
| akxwi-dave | evening flocculant | 18:26 |
| flocculant | you got a plan of any sort for tomorrow? | 18:27 |
| akxwi-dave | yep.. go thru the basics of app testing and the iso's... | 18:28 |
| flocculant | mentioning running with ppa's? | 18:28 |
| akxwi-dave | just had to build a pc ready for tommorrow.. my main rig died this morning | 18:28 |
| flocculant | oh my :| | 18:29 |
| akxwi-dave | yes the 3 main ones. | 18:29 |
| flocculant | cool | 18:29 |
| akxwi-dave | tell me :-( just gost me £350 for a new mobo cpu and memory | 18:29 |
| flocculant | :( | 18:29 |
| akxwi-dave | arrives on monday | 18:29 |
| akxwi-dave | luckily i had a spare dual core lenovo think centre I could build | 18:30 |
| flocculant | :) | 18:30 |
| flocculant | it'll be interesting to see who turns up for it | 18:31 |
| akxwi-dave | been away on holiday all week and came back to dead pc and the house alarm screwed.. :-) | 18:31 |
| flocculant | oh lovely ... | 18:31 |
| akxwi-dave | true .. even if just 1 or 2 start to test more I'll be happy | 18:32 |
| flocculant | yep | 18:32 |
| flocculant | well | 18:32 |
| flocculant | I'll be happy if 1 or 2 more report bugs/tests :D | 18:32 |
| akxwi-dave | lol.. very true | 18:33 |
| flocculant | we seem to have new people turning up at the testers lp page - so that's positive | 18:33 |
| akxwi-dave | :-) thats good | 18:34 |
| flocculant | 11 since the cycle start | 18:35 |
| flocculant | evening drc | 18:36 |
| drc | afternoon (barely :) | 18:37 |
| flocculant | :) | 18:37 |
| akxwi-dave | howdo drc | 18:38 |
| * drc wonders what's going on? Folks are being nice to him...checks what's going on behind him. | 18:39 | |
| drc | and howdo akxwi-dave :0 | 18:39 |
| flocculant | drc: lol - have I ever not been :) | 18:40 |
| drc | no, but when everybody is, I get suspicious. | 18:41 |
| flocculant | :) | 18:41 |
| drc | flocculant: got you lesson(s) plan set for tomorrow? | 18:41 |
| flocculant | akxwi-dave has :) | 18:42 |
| flocculant | we were just talking about that | 18:42 |
| flocculant | akxwi-dave: something else - we need to try and get people to understand that we're not just looking for obvious bugs eg gmusicbrowser crashes on close, but things a bit less obvious like bug 1508918 which might end up being wishlist | 18:44 |
| ubottu | bug 1508918 in Catfish "Deleting from search results" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1508918 | 18:44 |
| flocculant | if it goes well might be worth doing so again when we get to Beta stage | 18:46 |
| akxwi-dave | flocculant, read my mind... i'm using the gmb one as an example off obivous one | 18:46 |
| akxwi-dave | yup | 18:46 |
| flocculant | yea - we can use it as an example, but as it's now not seeded we'll be ignoring it | 18:47 |
| akxwi-dave | sorry flicking between chat and a rather nice little game i bought off steam.. | 18:47 |
| flocculant | that's ok - I'm flicking between chat and Mr Robot | 18:47 |
| drc | and I'm flicking between the LC and MU ends of the field. | 18:49 |
| akxwi-dave | :-) | 18:50 |
| knome | for 16.04, i think it would be a great idea to highlight some of the small details of the system that help users use it | 18:55 |
| knome | things like default button highlight | 18:56 |
| flocculant | knome: not sure I understand what you mean in regard to what we were talking about, unless it's not meant to and is a statement :) | 18:58 |
| knome | it's a disconnected statement | 18:59 |
| flocculant | ok :) | 18:59 |
| flocculant | knome: you mean like a blog post type thing? | 19:02 |
| knome | that was my first thought | 19:03 |
| flocculant | aah yes you do - just seen the mail from b/p @D | 19:03 |
| flocculant | :D | 19:03 |
| knome | and it could be extended to something that's mentioned on the release announcement | 19:03 |
| knome | to try to make that a bit more exciting than just "download is here" | 19:03 |
| flocculant | yea | 19:04 |
| flocculant | now that the more tech stuff is elsewhere, gives more chance to fill the webpage announcement to be more *bling* | 19:04 |
| knome | yes, totally | 19:04 |
| knome | and now that the website technically allows $XYZ better | 19:05 |
| flocculant | right | 19:05 |
| knome | currently, i have no new features or other big fixes planned | 19:05 |
| flocculant | yup | 19:06 |
| knome | meaning that i'm happy with most of the things there | 19:07 |
| knome | so i can focus more on the content side | 19:07 |
| flocculant | yea | 19:07 |
| knome | i'm sure there will be updates needed once i start doing that though, but what can you do :P | 19:07 |
| flocculant | :) | 19:07 |
| knome | also working on the content is easier even when you only have time intermittedly | 19:09 |
| flocculant | for sure - nothing to stop starting final release announcement now | 19:09 |
| knome | yep | 19:09 |
| flocculant | rather than on the 24th April :p | 19:09 |
| knome | yes ;) | 19:10 |
| knome | the latter is more likely though | 19:10 |
| knome | :P | 19:10 |
| flocculant | ha ha ha | 19:10 |
| knome | maybe we could do some images on the release announcement | 19:10 |
| knome | in addition to the xenial artwork | 19:10 |
| knome | ...which would be nice to draw before the UI freeze :P | 19:11 |
| flocculant | well | 19:11 |
| flocculant | if 'team' are going to 'I use foo instead of gmb' maybe some images of one or two of those perhaps | 19:11 |
| flocculant | I don't know - just thinking aloud | 19:12 |
| knome | i don't know | 19:12 |
| knome | they are kind of disconnected | 19:12 |
| flocculant | just not a pic of a qt one :D | 19:12 |
| knome | but that would be another article series to highlight for sure | 19:12 |
| knome | ^ also thought that when thinking the "small highlights" series | 19:12 |
| flocculant | knome: re that - might be useful to have some sort of default layout for that media thing | 19:13 |
| knome | yep | 19:13 |
| knome | though i think we'll just do some kind of intro paragraph like for the xubuntu at... series | 19:13 |
| knome | and damn you | 19:13 |
| knome | you just reminded me of one feature i want to have for the website... | 19:14 |
| knome | basically: | 19:14 |
| flocculant | media player? | 19:14 |
| knome | sigh | 19:15 |
| knome | how do i explain this | 19:15 |
| knome | in WP, a user can write a biographical information for themselves | 19:16 |
| knome | i would like to allow turning a knob "on" for a specific blog article to show that | 19:16 |
| knome | in a standard way | 19:16 |
| knome | one of the questions is if that bio info should be copied as some meta field for the post when it's published for the first time | 19:17 |
| knome | because if the user changes their bio, it can get awkward | 19:17 |
| flocculant | so if QA wrote something - it'd have a qa bio? | 19:17 |
| flocculant | for example | 19:17 |
| knome | if you wrote something, it'd have your bio | 19:18 |
| knome | but that would be optional in my vision | 19:18 |
| flocculant | mmm | 19:18 |
| knome | so we could make sure the release announcement doesn't have a bio :P | 19:18 |
| knome | or a xubuntu at... article | 19:18 |
| flocculant | not sure how that adds much tbh | 19:18 |
| knome | currently, we haven't written many articles that would benefit from it | 19:19 |
| flocculant | which is probably why I don't see the benefit of it :) | 19:19 |
| knome | yeah | 19:19 |
| knome | http://xubuntu.org/news/xubuntus-default-theme-gets-a-refresh-for-quantal/ | 19:20 |
| knome | that's one of them | 19:20 |
| knome | it's not *essential*, but there are times when i'd like it | 19:20 |
| knome | another idea is to just forget the user bio, and just add a new field that we can fill in | 19:22 |
| knome | but then it would kind of defeat the purpose of having it automated | 19:22 |
| flocculant | yea | 19:22 |
| flocculant | and unlikely to be used as much | 19:22 |
| knome | yes | 19:22 |
| knome | ok, enough babble | 19:23 |
| knome | bbl | 19:23 |
| knome | hf meanwhile :) | 19:23 |
| flocculant | cya | 19:23 |
| flocculant | likely tomorrow now - time to wander off | 19:23 |
| flocculant | akxwi-dave: in and out now, if I don't see you before I'll see you tomorrow PM | 19:25 |
| akxwi-dave | cya bud.. | 19:26 |
