Sven_vB | hi. | 13:48 |
---|---|---|
Sven_vB | ok my idea of volunteering just collapsed under the requirements, so... can I win some approved docs people to fix some web design issues on help.ubuntu.com? most urgent for me, there's that anonymous table with direct styling around the div.table-of-contents, could someone give a class or id to that? it even looks like it should probably be a <nav> instead of a single cell table. | 13:54 |
pleia2 | Sven_vB: are you able to send a message to the mailing list about this? I don't think the folks who can make changes are always in channel | 13:56 |
pleia2 | we mostly collaborate on the mailing list | 13:56 |
Sven_vB | if the list allows, i could send a fire&forget mail. really joining and getting accustomed to the list would look more tedious than making my proxy rewrite it for my part of the internet. | 13:59 |
pleia2 | you need to be subscribed | 14:02 |
pleia2 | (the Ubuntu mailing lists get a TON of spam otherwise) | 14:04 |
Sven_vB | ok... maybe i can find a bug tracker and file a feature request for the docs instead | 14:04 |
pleia2 | yeah, the link in the footer of all the pages will work | 14:04 |
pleia2 | assuming it's the static docs on help.ubuntu.com, and not the wiki at help.ubuntu.com/community/ | 14:06 |
Sven_vB | indeed, above problem is on wiki pages | 14:10 |
Sven_vB | I followed the wiki guide's link to login with Launchpad, and instead it leads me to Ubuntu one, have they been merged? | 14:11 |
pleia2 | they have | 14:12 |
Sven_vB | thr transition from UbuntuOne back to help.… takes forever :< | 14:15 |
Sven_vB | and I haven't even figured out which project to file the bug for. maybe i should start the local fixing approach | 14:16 |
pleia2 | yeah, they put a lot of caching in on the wiki since the moinmoin software version we're using hasn't scaled well | 14:16 |
pleia2 | so everything is slow | 14:16 |
pleia2 | many discussions about switching to a different wiki, but we're all volunteers and none of us has time to work on such a project | 14:16 |
Sven_vB | at least now I have an idea why there's still a table in the code. :D | 14:18 |
pleia2 | you can file the comments against the ubuntu-doc project and someone will re-file if needed | 14:18 |
pleia2 | but yeah, not at all surprised by use of tables, it's old | 14:19 |
Sven_vB | so that launchpad login link lead me to ubuntu one which lead me back to the wiki. then i follow the "ubuntu-wiki-editors Launchpad team" link and shall login to launchpad, but this time using launchpad's version of Ubuntu one which my browser hasn't saved the password for... this is chaos | 14:26 |
pleia2 | I know, I wish it wasn't such a mess | 14:27 |
pleia2 | the LP/Ubuntu One switch was done by Canonical IS with no communication with the community, and apparently fixing it isn't a priority of them, so we're pretty stuck | 14:28 |
Sven_vB | so finally i arrived at https://bugs.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-doc but there's no button to file a bug. :< i guess it's like Ubuntu forums where they expect me to clairvoyantly guess that buttons will appear once i login? (or joined the team and get approved in this case) | 14:31 |
pleia2 | that's the team, you want the project: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-doc | 14:32 |
Sven_vB | oh ok, thanks | 14:32 |
pleia2 | sure | 14:32 |
Sven_vB | it's filed. in case anyone wants to add heat: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-docs/+bug/1613309 | 14:37 |
pleia2 | thank you | 14:38 |
Sven_vB | yw :) | 14:38 |
