jgayI can't seem to figure out how to use http://creativecommons.org/license/ to generate a license that is just CC SA and not CC BY SA07:53
jgayI think attribution is dumb in a lot of cases. Does anybody know how to unselect it?07:53

isforinsectsjgay I thought that all CC licenses were -BY08:04
* isforinsects URL hacks08:04
jgayisforinsects: yeah, tvol just informed me of that over in #freeculture08:04
jgayI'll repost my convo here08:04
jgayI mean, i understand that without attribution, enforcing the license is impossible08:04
jgay so in absolute terms it is closer to public domain08:04
jgay However, in practical terms it just isn't. People see CC and they are like, "respect."08:04
jgay So, CC SA would do the trick of people not pulling it out of the public domain, remixing it, and releasing it under some restrictive terms.08:04
jgay because we don't really care about guns and lawyers and stuff most of the time. We care about intent.08:04
jgay Where as public domain isn't usually seen as intentional. It's just like. O, the dude who did this is long gone and probably dead. I'll just do whatever.08:04
jgay(not, guns and lawyers is my way of saying "non-anarchist society that enforces laws with power, intimidation, and force")08:05
isforinsectshave you seen: http://creativecommons.org/license/publicdomain-2 ?08:06
jgayisforinsects: is that the same as the public domain dedication?08:07
isforinsectsYeah.08:07
isforinsectsIt has a pretty CC-PD logo is all08:07
jgayisforinsects: that's different than CC SA08:07
jgayI want a license that says "the intent of this license is that everyone continue to have it be a sharealike license"08:07
isforinsectsOf course.  Oh, I read the rest of your argument now.08:07
jgayit's about expressing intent08:08
isforinsectsWell afaik, don't you get to define how the -by is defined?08:08
jgaynot about the law -- the law is kind of stupid for the most part.08:08
isforinsectsIsn't that part of the license?08:08
jgayyeah, I think I will have it be anonymous08:08
jgaybut not Anonymous08:08
jgayhehe08:08
isforinsectsAs in, you could waive attribution08:08
isforinsectsaye, heh08:08
tvoljgay does gpl require attribution?08:09
jgaytvol: I'm not sure. I like CC better than GPL08:09
isforinsectstvol, the gpl doc license?08:09
isforinsectsGFDL?08:10
tvolyah not sure, isforinsects...i only really know gpl in the realm of software08:10
tvoljust wondering08:10
jgayI'll attribute the work to publius08:10
jgayso I can be all patriotic08:10
tvol:)08:10
jgayit's the in the thing these days :-)08:10
jgaywhen I was working on MagnaWiki (magna charta wiki) I used Publius as the name and password for everything -- and all my testers names were publius. I think it's great.08:11
isforinsectshttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:GFDL08:11
jgaynot so much that I agree with what the federalist papers stated, but that I think that how they wrote and published them was _awesome_08:12
isforinsectsI think that the GFDL requires the last ten contributors? I can't seem to find that anywhere though.08:12
isforinsectsjust fyi08:12

nkinkadeBovinity: I just svn switches staging from http:// to svn+ssh:// ... if you happen to do some work on staging today.12:53
nkinkadeI'm going to send an email to webmaster.12:53
nkinkadeI couldn't take for one minute longer the readonly staging checkout.12:53
Bovinityah12:53
Bovinityso which user is governing it?12:53
Bovinityor shouldn't it matter with our a6 logins?12:54
nkinkadeThe user svn.12:56
nkinkadeCheck the email I'm about to send for details.12:56
nkinkadeBasically this means we can now make changes directly to staging, test them, and then commit the changes right from staging to subversion.12:56
Bovinityhooray!12:58

paulproteusI think our two tech interns may live in the Sunset right by SFSU.12:59
Bovinityyou finding htem places to stay?13:01
paulproteusWell they found a place via Craigslist, and I went and visited it last night for 'em.13:01
paulproteusTwo bedrooms in a four-bed flat right by SF State.13:01
paulproteus$660 a month, and they'd pay two and a half months.13:02
paulproteus(each, naturally)13:02
Bovinityneat13:02
paulproteusIt's kind of a boring neighborhood, though.13:02
Bovinityout in the aves?13:03
paulproteusYeah, 19th Ave and Something.13:03
Bovinity19th isn't bad.. well, depending on which side of the park you're on13:03
paulproteusThey're practically here: http://maps.google.com/maps?q=1650%20Holloway%20Ave%20San%20Francisco%2C%20CA%2094132&ie=UTF-8&oe=utf-8&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a&um=1&sa=N&tab=wl13:04

Bovinitywow.13:05
Bovinitydo buses go down there? O_o13:06
paulproteusMuni has a SF State stop that's like 3 minutes' walk from the green arrow.13:06
paulproteusThe M line.13:06
Bovinityah13:06
paulproteusAnd also there are buses right at 19th & Holloway and a couple of others.13:06
nkinkadeBovinity: I'm going to do the same for learn-staging.  You okay with that?13:06

nkinkadeBovinity: How do staging and learn-staging look to you?  Did I miss something?13:26
Bovinitynkinkade: the rss plugin appears to be funky on learn-staging13:27
Bovinitynto displaying the content13:27
nkinkadeHow so?13:27
nkinkadeWhere?13:27
Bovinitycc staging looks fine13:27
nkinkadeOh, sorry, duh.  I'm looking at learn.13:27
Bovinityperhaps something you did to the plugin yeterday13:28
Bovinityi haven't caught up with your changes13:28
nkinkadeBovinity: That should do it.13:38
nkinkadeI changed the interface to the function a bit, but since it's only referenced in 3 places it shouldn't really be a problem.13:39
nkinkadeBovinity: Can I go ahead and implement the changes, or would you like to glance at it first?13:44
Bovinityglancing...13:45
nkinkadeI'd personally still be in favor of passing the feed URL directly to the function.  I just like that it's more explicit.  Presently it would be necessary to either echo it to a comment or go look in the db.  It would also simplify the function slightly.13:47
nkinkadeIs there an advantage to having it in the database?13:47
Bovinityfor our purposes right now, there isn't really an advantage13:50
nkinkadeWhat would be the advantage down the road?13:50
Bovinitybut it's foreseeable that it would be a useful enough feature to be its own WP plugin.. one could also store entry and character count settings along with the feed url.13:51
*** alfadir has quit IRC13:52
Bovinityreally, i don't mind. if you'd rather not hit the DB for the feed url, lets just change it out13:53
Bovinityi just like to control those sorts of things outside of views and templates13:53
nkinkadeThat's true.  It could make it a more easy to use plugin, should it become that.13:55
nkinkadeAt the moment it's pretty much a CC-specific plugin.  It could be generalized without much change, though.13:55
nkinkadeSorry, not a plugin, but a function.13:55
nkinkadeI should just go ahead and add the ability to add $charcount, $entries and the new $groupby to the admin interface.13:56

bsenkinkade: are you still editing the cclearn index.php?16:39
nkinkadebse: No.16:42
nkinkadeOr maybe I've still got it open ...?16:43
nkinkadeDone.16:43
bsenkinkade: would you be opposed to having \n's replaced wiht paragraph tags in the feed processing, where character counts are being used?16:57
bsetrying not to go berzerk adding more optional arguments for edge cases... like the cclearn features feed.16:58
paulproteusbse, nkinkade, Could one of you burn me an Ubuntu CD?  I have the ISO locally but for some reason my burns always fail.16:59
paulproteusI'd been burning it onto DVD+RWs.16:59
paulproteushttp://10.0.2.2/~paulproteus/ubuntu-8.04-desktop-i386.iso - and I can hand you media to try.17:00
*** tvol_ has quit IRC17:00
*** tvol has joined #CC17:00
bsesure, my burns are often functional17:00
paulproteusYay.17:00
nkinkadebse: re: substituting \n with paragraph tags ... it's fine with me, but I'm not sure I understand why?17:03
bsenkinkade: with charcount enabled tags are stripped, which is fine for the mini feeds in the sidebar. But it ruins the otherwise quite useful formatting in the big cclearn feature feed.17:05
nkinkadebse: I don't strip_tags() on the main feeds.17:05
nkinkadeSo you want to allow for truncating longer feeds that have no charcount defined?17:06
bseumm, yes, if i understand your question correctly17:07
bsebecause we wnat to truncate the feature feed items, since they're all absurdly long17:07
nkinkadeThat makes sense to me, they seem really really long, but are you sure that Ahrash want's to chop them off?17:08
bseyes17:09
*** pmiller has joined #cc17:09
nkinkadeLAN seems really slow.17:14
nkinkadeMaybe I need to tweak wshaper?17:14
bseprobably because i'm pulling down asheesh's iso17:14
bse10.0.1.166 strikes again.17:14
nkinkadeSure, I guess I just need to fiddle with wshaper.17:15
nkinkadeBut somehow paulproteus is always behind it, whether directly or indirectly.  ;-)17:18
paulproteusnkinkade, No, it was internal.17:18
paulproteuswshaper wouldn't have helped.17:18
bsei'm done with abusing the wifi now17:19
nkinkadeThat's actually good to know, because I was feeling sad about limiting our Internet bandwidth for some edge cases.17:19
paulproteusFWIW my burn worked fine to a CD-R.17:36
paulproteusInstead of those fruity Sony DVD+RWs.17:36

nkinkadebse: When was cc_plugin_activate() supposed to get triggered?18:18
bsenkinkade: that gets triggered when you activate the plugin from the WP plugin chooser18:18
bseone can also define FOO_plugin_deactivate18:19
nkinkadeI forget what triggers it.  It's not getting run.18:19
bsehmm18:19
bseregister_activation_hook( __FILE__, 'cc_plugin_activate' );18:20
nkinkadeAh, maybe that needs to be included in the admin-file.18:21
bseit's at the end of creativecommons.php18:21
bsethe code came from another plugin18:22
nkinkadeI think the problem is that __FILE__ refers to the current script, but the function resides elsewhere.  I'll check that.18:25

nkinkadeIt just took me about 30 minutes to figure out that Wordpress doesn't allow globalization of variables inside of the register_activation_hook() callback.19:03
nkinkadeMaybe that is expected behavior.19:04
bseunexpected19:04
nkinkadeMaybe is has to do with how callback functions operate???19:04
bseit allows $wpdb though19:04
bseglobal variables inside the file? yeah, probably the way callbacks are done19:04
nkinkadeIt allows "global $wpdb;", but not "global $cc_db_rss_feeds;"19:06
bsestrange19:06
nkinkadeNo, I think it has to do with your previous comment.19:06
bsemaybe that's a new security feature?19:06
nkinkadeThat $cc_db_rss_feeds was being set at the top of the file and clearly Wordpress wasn't setting that variable in the context of the callback function.19:07
nkinkadeIt shouldn't have taken me that long to figure out, but I don't yet know how to debug an activation function, since no data can be echoed.19:08
nkinkadeI'm sure there is a way.19:08
bsecodex is of little use, of course. http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/register_activation_hook19:10
