[15:13] Is there somewhere a version of the Launchpad logo that allows derivative works? https://github.com/FortAwesome/Font-Awesome/issues/4646 [17:23] sidi: you can ask Canonical for permission here: http://www.ubuntu.com/legal/terms-and-policies/contact-us [17:24] I don't understand what Font Awesome really is or why they want to use logos of various projects (the last I heard about was the Docker one). But that's just me. It's not up to me. [17:27] rbasak: font awesome is the thing that web sites used to break usability by shoving icons for things into fonts, rather than loading images [17:28] aka, it's not at all awesome [17:29] What's their reasoning? [17:31] "speed" or some such nonsense [17:31] there is no good reason for it. but twitter/github/etc… all do this [17:32] Ah, so they're the reason some websites break because I have overridden some fonts? [17:33] What happened to CSS image sprites? [17:34] yes [19:56] dobey, rbasak people prefer this approach because it's easier [19:56] png sprites dont look good if resized, and im not sure how easy it'd be to have a nice layer of abstraction above an svg sprite that can be resized, as well [19:57] rbasak, thanks for the contact link [20:17] That sounds like something that would be referring to Launchpad rather than to something else and thus my guess is that it would be OK, but I can't give permission for this; you would indeed have to contact Canonical legal. [20:41] sidi: ah, that's a reason I hadn't thought of, thanks. [21:14] hi folks, why does the exception guidelines say to never catch a TypeError: https://dev.launchpad.net/ExceptionGuidelines [21:17] because they are not issued as a matter of course [21:17] so its better to fix the bug causing it to be raised [21:18] cr3: ^ [21:20] lifeless: darn common sense that's not so common. makes perfect sense, thanks for the explanation! [21:32] cr3: :)
