[00:42] <tedge> I have to get going.
[00:42] <tedge> If you want to get in touch about submitting PikoPixel for Ubuntu Studio, please email me at pikopixel (at) twilightedge (dot) com, or use the website's contact form: http://twilightedge.com/contact/index.html .
[00:42] <tedge> Thanks!
[01:45] <OvenWerks> with regard to pikopixel: it relies on gnustep (6 libs). The fact that it calls itself *.app suggests that it may be script-ish.
[01:59] <OvenWerks> I am not sure of the size, But someone who does graphics more than I should look at it if there is interest. If size is small enough I guess it doesn't matter much.
[04:38] <Eickmeyer> OvenWerks: Really, he's barking up the wrong tree. Needs to be redirected to a MOTU for inclusion in Universe first.
[04:38] <OvenWerks> it says it is in universe already
[04:39] <Eickmeyer> OvenWerks: If that's the case, then it just needs to be added to the seed, right?
[04:39] <OvenWerks> if we want it, yes
[04:39] <OvenWerks> I would like to see someone with graphics background at least try it out.
[04:40] <Eickmeyer> I'll investigate. eylul would be a good one to check it out too.
[04:41] <Eickmeyer> Looking at it, it might be useful for icon creation.
[04:41] <OvenWerks> does it fill a roll we don't have? or better?
[04:43] <Eickmeyer> Well, one could really use GIMP or Krita for this, but this seems to have a focus on pixel art and/or icon development.
[04:43] <OvenWerks> So it may be better than other tools for at least some uses.
[04:45] <Eickmeyer> Perhaps. I'd love to do a little Q&A with him just to further isolate what niche it fills.
[04:45] <Eickmeyer> AGPLv3, so it's good to go that way.
[04:47] <Eickmeyer> OvenWerks: Honestly, it might be a good replacement for MyPaint if they don't get their act in gear.
[04:48] <OvenWerks> there is that
[04:49] <Eickmeyer> Should I invite him to the meeting on Saturday?
[04:49] <OvenWerks> is there one? sure
[04:49] <Eickmeyer> That way we could ask him questions.
[04:50] <OvenWerks> Unless we should discuss this outside his presense first
[04:51] <Eickmeyer> Okay. Perhaps we should do that and then plan an off-schedule meeting if we have questions?
[04:52]  * Eickmeyer is trying to get next Saturday completely clear to go for a day trip to Mt. St. Helens
[04:53] <OvenWerks> cool, we have company coming later and will be cleaning house :P
[04:53] <Eickmeyer> Joy. /s
[04:54] <Eickmeyer> So, I'll add it to the agenda for this Saturday's meeting.
[09:07] <eylul> Eickmeyer: unless there is a serious reason not to, I'd say it is a good addition. pixelart editors are also useful for game designers, and I don't think we currently have one. :)
[09:07] <eylul> and it is not a mypaint replacement. mypaint is a drawing tool/sketchbook app, more similar to Krita.
[21:24] <Eickmeyer> eylul: Okay, cool. In that case, should we just drop MyPaint altogether since Krtia fills that niche? If yes, it creates room for pikopixel.
[21:55]  * Eickmeyer finally bit the bullet and is upgrading his system to Cosmic
