flocculant | indicator-panel worketh once more | 18:18 |
---|---|---|
flocculant | mmm | 18:24 |
flocculant | spoketh too soon | 18:25 |
flocculant | could I get some confirmation on bug 1652134 | 18:39 |
ubottu | bug 1652134 in xfce4-indicator-plugin (Ubuntu) "Unable to hide (or make visible) individual indicators" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1652134 | 18:39 |
knome | oki, i'm here ;) | 22:00 |
flocculant | knome: so if we had a proposal section - what would we want? | 22:00 |
flocculant | dependencies | 22:00 |
flocculant | changes to size? | 22:01 |
flocculant | some sort of pros and cons? | 22:01 |
flocculant | cos now I found a word missing - I could do both mp for both :p | 22:01 |
knome | http://docs.xubuntu.org/contributors/xsd.html#xsd-seeds-composition-package-selection <- basically that | 22:01 |
knome | in other words, same guidelines go for replacing packages as for new | 22:02 |
knome | plus of course in the case of replacing, you'll want to compare | 22:02 |
knome | but i think that's implied | 22:02 |
flocculant | yup | 22:02 |
flocculant | really then Package Selection should include Proposals ? | 22:02 |
flocculant | at least logically in my head | 22:03 |
knome | i'm kind of meh on that | 22:03 |
knome | what extra could it bring to the table? | 22:03 |
flocculant | somewhere to point people | 22:03 |
knome | isn't proposals for replacements and new packages always related to the package selection? | 22:03 |
knome | point them to the package selection section? :) | 22:03 |
flocculant | yes | 22:03 |
flocculant | well yea - now I see that bit - I can see that it's much of a muchness | 22:04 |
knome | :) | 22:04 |
flocculant | still got a missing word though :p | 22:05 |
knome | well, do an MP | 22:05 |
flocculant | yea ofc - or I could just do some random pastebin thing like kryten :p | 22:08 |
knome | no please | 22:08 |
knome | he's done a dozen of those for the ubuntu community wordpress theme | 22:08 |
flocculant | hence the discussion re proposals - would have done it all together | 22:08 |
knome | and i've processed like one of them | 22:08 |
knome | ... | 22:08 |
flocculant | knome: have you ever seen me do that ;) | 22:08 |
knome | no, but who knows what 2017 brings ;) | 22:09 |
flocculant | change I hope - horrid year ;) | 22:09 |
flocculant | knome: anything massive happening to contributor docs I don't know about? | 22:13 |
knome | nope | 22:13 |
knome | nothing at all planned | 22:14 |
flocculant | ok - I might take the chance while akxwi-dave is doing qa duties to just run through the cont stuff like I have the user docs then | 22:14 |
knome | mhm | 22:14 |
flocculant | mhm always sounds like 'you can if you want - can't see the point personnaly' :p | 22:15 |
flocculant | though I know it's not :) | 22:16 |
knome | heh, sorry for that | 22:16 |
knome | and indeed it is not | 22:16 |
flocculant | yep | 22:16 |
flocculant | no need for a sorry :D | 22:16 |
flocculant | after this long I know ... | 22:16 |
knome | sigh @ clients | 22:17 |
flocculant | :) | 22:17 |
knome | oh he is here already | 22:24 |
knome | :P | 22:24 |
flocculant | \o/ | 22:24 |
knome | | | 22:24 |
knome | / \ | 22:24 |
flocculant | Spass: basically, if you have the disk space - do a dual boot with 17.04 | 22:24 |
flocculant | you can be brave and let 17.04 have grub (like me) or install dev grub to partition rather than disk | 22:25 |
flocculant | then you can run either | 22:25 |
flocculant | and while I am brave (or nuts) I do also have a 16.04 install I can boot if I really have to | 22:26 |
Spass | Yep, hi all. I have an ability to dual boot, sure. On my laptop (Dell E6410 with NVIDIA graphics). | 22:27 |
flocculant | there is an enormous amount of qa docs that we've developed over the last few years - that should answer most questions | 22:27 |
flocculant | laptop testing is absolutely awesome - lots of team have laptops - but use them for work so are a bit shy :D | 22:27 |
flocculant | personally I hate laptops so don't test that | 22:28 |
genii | But isn't the official laptop testing team finished for quite a while now? | 22:28 |
flocculant | hence we find locking/power stuff really late in the cycle :( | 22:28 |
genii | ( like, defunct) | 22:28 |
Spass | That's my small goal for 2017 - do something useful for Xubuntu community. | 22:28 |
flocculant | genii: really don't know | 22:28 |
knome | genii, laptop testing as in testing with laptops | 22:28 |
knome | but yes, the "laptop testing" thing is dead | 22:28 |
flocculant | Spass: if you started using the dev version more and more during the cycle that would be a huge gain for us - as you are in this channel | 22:29 |
flocculant | and hugely useful to the community too | 22:29 |
Spass | I could also test on my main PC "simultaneously" | 22:30 |
flocculant | I'm sure there are people out there doing the same thing - but we only find out those ones once we've released - at which point doing anything is much much harder | 22:30 |
flocculant | using dev xubuntu is how the rest of the team got a qa person who moaned all the time - then akxwi-dave joined - having 3 would be great :p | 22:31 |
flocculant | some things are generic - and we can't fix them | 22:32 |
flocculant | usually found in installation testing for instance | 22:32 |
flocculant | but the recent indicator-panel bugs I've found are because I run whatver dev version we are on | 22:33 |
* flocculant rambles when given the chance :) | 22:33 | |
Spass | I understand. Well, I will install dev version on my laptop soon :) | 22:33 |
flocculant | http://dev.xubuntu.org/ | 22:34 |
flocculant | has most of everything - check out the contributor docs - especially the qa ones | 22:34 |
flocculant | Spass: cool - just so long as you realise that I will either ask if you've done it - or get someone else to ask | 22:35 |
flocculant | sorry if I hurled you a wall of words :D | 22:37 |
Spass | I'll do some reading and research about contributing and I'll reach to you guys. | 22:37 |
flocculant | awesome :) | 22:37 |
Spass | Some pretty busy days ahead. but later I'll have plenty of free time that I should use for something... useful :) | 22:38 |
flocculant | nice :) | 22:39 |
Spass | My English can be wobbly sometimes, sorry for that in advance. I'll try to not hurt your eyes. | 22:40 |
flocculant | Spass: either akxwi-dave or me are the best people for specific qa things - more general things - just ask, bear in mind that this channel is busy in stages | 22:40 |
Spass | I'll try to not interrupt meetings like I did while ago ;) | 22:41 |
knome | flocculant's and akxwi-dave's english is messy sometimes... and they're british | 22:41 |
flocculant | Spass: no problem we have Finn's, Austrian's, Portuguese people and others who are worse at English - like the English :) | 22:41 |
flocculant | knome: I said that - but longer :p | 22:42 |
knome | :P | 22:42 |
flocculant | akxwi-dave and I type in dialects :D | 22:42 |
* knome types with keyboards | 22:42 | |
knome | ;) | 22:42 |
flocculant | ali1234 doesn't - he sighs at me | 22:43 |
flocculant | :) | 22:43 |
Spass | I appreciate and thank you all for your kind welcome. I'll try to be here almost everyday and I'll tell you when I'll be ready for some real work. | 23:09 |
knome | no worries or hurries | 23:10 |
flocculant | if only one could symlink a comment in a logged *buntu channel | 23:42 |
knome | hah | 23:42 |
flocculant | This would be my *current* fave ... | 23:42 |
Spass | But for now, my proposition from #xubuntu - I think that adding gnome-font-viewer would be nice. People who came from Windows may expect, that the OS has some kind of preview app for the font files. | 23:43 |
flocculant | oh oh my why why oh why do the CC forsake making signing the CoC an easy task | 23:44 |
flocculant | mhall119: ^^ | 23:44 |
flocculant | don't try hiding ;) | 23:44 |
JackFrost | They're trying to follow a model of using GPG, but a lot of users don't really have it or any other use for it. | 23:45 |
flocculant | following a model? | 23:46 |
flocculant | mmm | 23:46 |
flocculant | or mhm] | 23:46 |
knome | like many hockey players | 23:47 |
knome | :P | 23:47 |
knome | oh wait i thought this was -ot | 23:47 |
knome | oh well | 23:47 |
