akozaknkinkade, looks like the update didn't fix it. ill have to look into it tomorrow00:05
akozaksorry, looks like the data update didn't re-enable maps on the Events page00:05
nkinkadeakozak: Cool.  Let me know if you think I should be investigating this as well ... though I know next to nothing about it all. :-)00:05

alabdGood day all, Want to copy some texts that are licensed Free , so humble(i) should paraphrase those texts into My hard Book , but don't know how to paraphrase such thing like > "Ubuntu is an ancient African word meaning 'humanity to others'.

paroneayeankinkade: yo.  So...16:34
paroneayeawant to work on that vietnam & australian rdf stuff?16:35
paroneayea(or, might have time to work on that later today if you're presently busy?)16:35
nkinkadeparoneayea: We can look at it now.16:35
paroneayeacool16:37
*** sudiptamondal has quit IRC16:39
nkinkadeparoneayea: So does this just mean that I check out the code, and step through that wiki page?16:42
paroneayealet me take one last look to make sure you won't be wasting your time on something that's obviously out of date16:42
paroneayeabut yes16:42
nkinkadeI'm checking out license.rdf as we speak.16:45
*** akila87 has joined #cc16:45
paroneayeahttp://teamspace.creativecommons.org/Managing_License_RDF#Adding_a_New_License_Version okay, so that looks right to me16:49
akila87hello paroneayea,16:52
*** sudiptamondal has joined #cc16:52
*** akozak has joined #cc16:55
*** sudiptamondal has quit IRC16:56
nkinkadeparoneayea: What branch should I be working on?16:59
paroneayeaheya akila8717:05
paroneayeankinkade: master17:05
akila87paroneayea, i have updated the svn17:06
paroneayeaakila87: great! :)17:06
akila87but didn't added the picasa code.17:06
akila87image selection by license should be implemented.17:08
akila87i'll upload it after i added that.17:08
paroneayeaah okay17:09
paroneayeasounds good :)17:09
akila87paroneayea, i think nathany's idea is good.17:09
akila87ill start working according to that.17:09
paroneayeagreat )17:10
paroneayea:)17:10
akila87i hope I can finish the GUI part in the weekend17:10
akila87then we can do the changes accordingly, is that ok?17:11
paroneayeayup, sounds good17:12
nkinkadeparoneayea: I'm getting this as I buildout, seems to just be a warning, though:  UserWarning: Unbuilt egg for setuptools [unknown version]17:15
*** sudiptamondal has joined #cc17:15
akozaknkinkade, someone in #mediawiki says maybe its stored in cache17:19
nkinkadeAh.17:19
akozakand says to purge memcached17:20
akozakwhich doesnt make sense to me17:20
nkinkadeakozak: We're not using memcached, to my knowledge.17:20
akozaknkinkade, yea.17:20
akozaknkinkade, I'm still confused since the user said she's been locked out for hours. shouldn't the timer have expired?17:21
nkinkadeakozak: I would have thought so.17:21
akozakmaybe she really just means she doesn't know her password17:21
akozakwhich is why I sent the details to reset pwd in mysql17:21
nkinkadeThat could be, maybe you could just email her and verify.17:22
akozakok17:22
nkinkadeThanks.17:22
akozaknkinkade, also from #mediawiki: or set $wgPasswordAttemptThrottle to null, ask the user to log in, then restore the setting?17:26
nkinkadeparoneayea: running bin/jurisdiction --add mades lots of mysterious changes to jurisdictions.rdf ... git diff returns a confused mess, but I suspect it worked just fine.17:26
nkinkadeakozak: I feel like I tried that with Alessandra and came up empty.17:26
nkinkadeIt was another one of those moments where I was feeling down on MW.17:26
nkinkadeBut you could try that too, with this woman.17:27
*** Bish has left #cc17:27
akozakheh nkinkade, you tend to see mw at its worst and never get to work with it at its best ;)17:28
nkinkadeYeah, working with in on the backend.  From a user perspective I'm sure it's fine.17:30
JED3nkinkade: did you figure out the UserWarning you were getting?17:31
nkinkadeJED3: I didn't look into it.  It appears that the buildout worked, and that those were just warnings.17:32
JED3nkinkade: yeah, but that warning will persist anytime you attempt to use setuptools17:33
nkinkadeJED3: Do you know what caused it?17:34
JED3yeah, you have an unbuilt setuptools egg17:34
JED3sudo rm -fr /usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/setuptools.egg-info; sudo apt-get install --reinstall python-setuptools17:35
JED3nkinkade: ^17:35
JED3had to do this yesterday actually17:36
nkinkadeJED3: Thanks.  I'll see if that does it for me too.17:37
nkinkadeparoneayea: The fab stuff isn't implemented yet, rigth?17:37
*** michi has joined #cc17:38
nkinkadeparoneayea: How do I update staging, again?  You pasted this here in #cc recently, I think.17:39
nkinkadeNevermind about the fab stuff, I just saw the color legend at the top.17:40
*** sudiptamondal has quit IRC17:42
paroneayeankinkade: hey sorry17:54
paroneayeawas at lunch17:54
paroneayeayeah so17:58
paroneayeankinkade: so as for a "whole bunch of changes" to the rdf, yeah17:59
paroneayeaunfortunately it doesn't remember ordering and thus the whole thing is basically a recommit :(17:59
paroneayeathat seems to be true with both rdflib and librdf17:59
paroneayeait's really painful when running the translation machinery on every deed and when regenerating index.rdf18:00
paroneayeaas for updating staging18:00
paroneayeaif you're just updating the RDF you really only need to do three steps18:01
paroneayeaoh wait18:01
paroneayeahm that's not true :)18:01
paroneayeaif you're doing an rdf update you're going to need to release a new package.18:01
*** michi_ has joined #cc18:02
paroneayeaLet me type up some instructions for that on the wiki.18:02
*** michi has quit IRC18:03
paroneayeaactually this raises some interesting questions.  I should ask nathany18:09
paroneayeaI wonder if we should be running git checkouts of cc.licenserdf on all servers rather than python eggs.18:09
nkinkadeparoneayea: That seems like it would make things easier.18:15
*** wormsxulla has quit IRC18:15
nkinkadeAt least from my perspective, but you and Nathan know a lot more (if not 100%) more about how things should work.18:15
*** luisv has quit IRC18:15
*** luisv has joined #cc18:16
paroneayeayeah it probably would be a lot easier.18:17
paroneayeankinkade: well, nathan's not around.  Maybe in the meanwhile it would make sense for me to make a package release of this for now and then make those fabric deploy scripts next?18:19
nkinkadeparoneayea: I still haven't added Australia 3.0.18:19
paroneayeaoh :)18:19
paroneayeaok18:19
nkinkadeSo before you do that, let me add that.18:19
paroneayeacool.18:19
nkinkadeI was going to test incrementally with VN first.18:19
paroneayeamakes sense.18:19
nkinkadeBut if updating these requires building out new packages, then I guess it's best for me to do everything at once.18:20
paroneayeahm.18:20
paroneayeaHold on.  I'm going to try switching staging over to not using an egg18:21
paroneayeawe won't have the fabric scripts18:21
paroneayeabut at least we won't have to make a package release18:21
paroneayeaand you can test incrementally.18:21
paroneayeawith just a couple of steps.18:21
paroneayeaI'll do that now.18:21
*** oshani has joined #cc18:22
*** bassel has quit IRC18:24
*** akozak has quit IRC18:31
*** wormsxulla has joined #cc18:33
paroneayeayeah so18:35
paroneayeathe license.rdf git checkout is 63mb in the compressed files in .git/ (776mb including the checked out files) and will likely just keep growing huge18:36
paroneayeagrumble grumble18:36
paroneayeastupid rdf non-preservation of order18:36
*** luisv_ has joined #cc18:39
*** luisv has quit IRC18:39
*** luisv_ is now known as luisv18:39
paroneayeadone!18:41
paroneayeankinkade: so it should be a lot easier to update on staging now.18:41
paroneayeankinkade: okay, so basically this is all you need to do for now18:47
paroneayeaUpdate the git repository:18:48
paroneayeacd /var/www/staging.creativecommons.org/cc.engine_stage/license.rdf && git pull18:48
paroneayeaoh18:48
paroneayea(you need to sudo su john to do this for now)18:48
paroneayeathen:18:49
paroneayeacd ..18:49
paroneayearm -rf cache/licenses18:50
paroneayeato clear the cache18:50
paroneayeaand then restart apache18:50
paroneayeaand you should be good.18:50
nkinkadeparoneayea: Why is restarting Apache necessary?18:52
paroneayeankinkade: cc.license caches some of the queries it does to the RDF store18:55
paroneayeaand since cc.engine is launched by apache now (via fcgid)18:56
nkinkadeparoneayea: Will a reload be good enough?18:56
nkinkadeI suspect that will be adequate18:56
nkinkadeparoneayea: 776M!18:57
paroneayeayeah it's crazy18:57
nkinkadeThat's a lot of text.  So we stopped saving RDF in separate files?18:57
paroneayeawe do save them in separate files.18:57
paroneayeaand then combine them also into one big file :)18:57
paroneayeaoh man18:57
paroneayeadid I document that?18:57
paroneayeaif you're updating the deeds you're going to need to update index.rdf18:58
paroneayeaoh, but you used to update index.rdf before iirc right?18:58
paroneayeathat's not a new thing18:58
paroneayeathough it has a new command.18:58
*** oshani has quit IRC18:59
paroneayea./bin/merge cc/licenserdf/licenses/*.rdf19:03
paroneayeayou need to run this to generate the new index.rdf19:03
paroneayeaI've documented that bit now.19:06
paroneayeawait wtf19:07
paroneayeaOH19:07
paroneayeayou know what's taking up 700 mb or so? :D19:07
paroneayeait's the old deeds!19:07
paroneayeawhich we don't even use any more!19:07
paroneayeaI'm gonna git rm those19:07
nkinkadeNice.  Because I was at a loss to explain 750M of text ... that's a lot of text.19:10

greg-gsorry, alabd, I'm busy working on my work right now and am thus delayed.19:51
greg-galabd: your question could be debated by legal scholars and they might not agree, so I don't want to give you the wrong idea.19:52
alabdgreg-g: how can they be not agreed , you mean they will say this sentence can be copyrighted "ubuntu will be free for ever" ?? this is a fact and seems does not have a expression19:54
greg-galabd: you seem to have made up your mind, no? Go with what you think is correct.19:54
alabdis it possible at all to copyright some facts ? how ?19:54
greg-gagain, copyright protects the expression of facts, not the facts themselves.19:55
alabdgreg-g:  does this sentence have expression ?19:55
alabd"ubuntu will be free for ever"19:55
*** sudiptamondal has joined #cc19:56

alabddoes above question need lawyer really ?19:57
greg-galabd: sorry, I am now going to go back to my day job so I can leave and have a nice vacation this weekend. I wish you the best.19:57
alabdfor the last question greg-g , what do you mean of "but it does depend on the country you are in" you mean the sentence mentioned may be expression in some country ?19:58
alabddon't you think it is so simple and clear that this sentence "ubuntu will be free for ever"  does not have any expression ? or am humble wrong why ? answer this for me before going ?20:00

paroneayeaah right20:45
paroneayeawell anyway20:45
paroneayeahere's what happened20:45
paroneayeaif you look at jurisdiction.rdf20:45
paroneayeayou'll see there's an entry for http://creativecommons.org/international/vn/ but20:46
paroneayeaall the title assertions say country.vn20:46
paroneayeathat's because it tried to run it through the translator but there *is* no country.vn msgid currently20:46
nkinkadeparoneayea:  I'm sure that country.vn is in i18n.20:47
nkinkadeDid it not get pushed to the git repo?20:47
paroneayeaoh.20:47
paroneayeaso that20:47
paroneayeaheh20:47
*** erlehmann has quit IRC20:48
paroneayeaokay, so... a) cc.i18npkg doesn't have it, and you're right, it didn't get pushed to the i18n git repo20:49
paroneayeabut20:49
paroneayeawe were going to switch that over to just use svn instead of git in cc.i18npkg, and I haven't done taht20:49
paroneayeab) even if that's the case your buildout I suppose would be pulling a *release* of cc.i18npkg.  Which again requires the "relying on making a python egg release", which I guess makes this process more complex than it should be.20:51
*** sudiptamondal has quit IRC20:52
nkinkadeparoneayea: I think our plan is to totally abandon the i18n subversion repository in favor of the git one.20:52
nkinkadeLike with license.rdf, it sure would be nice if we could just git pull, restart Apache and be done. :-)20:53
