paulproteusHey hdworak.16:14
hdworak:)16:14
paulproteusToday is a US national holiday, so I won't be too attentive probably. (-:16:14
hdworakwell, we have Mother's Day here, but I know it's different in USA16:14
hdworakwhat holiday do you have today?16:15
paulproteusMemorial Day16:15
hdworakok16:15
hdworakI'm working on a wiki entry about my project16:15
hdworakI'm learning the wiki markup, but it's pretty straightforward16:15
* paulproteus nods16:15
isforinsectshello all16:17
paulproteusHowdy isforinsects.16:19
hdworakhi isforinsects16:23
isforinsectsSo what is it you're working on hdworak?16:23
hdworaktoday or in general?16:23
hdworak:)16:23
isforinsectsToday, via wiki-markup?16:24
hdworakwell, paulproteus has asked me to document the progress of the project on cc wiki and cc Techblog16:25
hdworakso I've started with the wiki16:25
hdworakI'm writing a separate article dedicated to the project16:25
hdworakthe article is going to be linked to "the proposal of the proposal"16:26
hdworak;)16:26
hdworakI'm quite new to both Wiki markup and WordPress markup/blogging, so that's a new experience to me16:26
ankitghdworak: Hey Hugo! =)16:27
hdworakhello! :)16:27
isforinsectscc Techblog?16:29
hdworakI believe its http://techblog.creativecommons.org/16:29
hdworakright16:30
paulproteusYup.16:30
* ankitg needs to sign up for an account there as well ... been sick and away from the comp for the last few days ...16:30
paulproteusHey there ankitg. (-:16:30
ankitgpaulproteus: Hey ... go sleep, it's a holiday! :)16:31
isforinsectsI poke at the CC wiki from time to time, but I haven't ever added anything substantial to it.16:31
paulproteusEh, it's 2:30 PM (-:16:31
ankitgpaulproteus: never a bad time for sleep || code || chocolate or ice-cream ...16:31
paulproteusGood point. (-:16:32
ankitghdworak: I see no sign-up at the blog ... did you have to drop Nathan an email?16:32
paulproteusankitg, Yeah, you have to email nkinkade.16:33
hdworakwell, I've got an account there16:33
* ankitg is Gmailing now ...16:33
hdworakbut it was manually created by the staff16:33
paulproteusankitg, Tell him the username and email address you want it to store in your profile.16:33
ankitgpaulproteus: okie. Will do.16:34
ankitgemail sent.16:37
paulproteusankitg, BTW, feel free to CC: me on any email you send as part of SoC.16:39
paulproteusThe more I know about what you're up to, the happier I'm sure I'll be.16:39
paulproteushdworak, Same goes for you.16:39
ankitgpaulproteus: noted.16:40
paulproteusLike if you end up joining some mailing list and asking some tech questions about some tool you're using, I'd love it if I knew what you were up to. (-:16:40
hdworakgood idea, roger that16:40
* ankitg wonders if my twitter feed helps people know what I am upto ...16:42
paulproteusI only really use email, but let me take this moment to fix my RSS feed setup.16:43
paulproteusThen I'll read your Twitter by RSS.16:43
isforinsectsah SoC16:43
isforinsectsI think I'm going to try to do SoC next year.16:43
*** jordon has left #cc16:43
ankitgOh Great! ... Now i'll have to start being professional about what I tweet ... someone that really matters will be reading ...16:45
paulproteusPuh-lease, don't mistake me for someone who matters. (-:16:45
paulproteusBe your normal self, I understand it's twitter!16:45
*** parkerhiggins has quit IRC16:46
ankitgit takes time for people to get that sarcasm is my language ... not English ... (-:16:47
paulproteusThis time I'll keep that in mind.16:47
ankitgpaulproteus: point 3 of your email "Email me with what you need to get started" ... I could email it to you, but since you are here ... can I have the data, so I may get started ... please. pretty please?16:50
paulproteusRight, er, good question.16:50
paulproteusSo there are some privacy issues I want to resolve.16:50
paulproteusAnd I don't want to think about them seriously until tomorrow.16:51
ankitgpaulproteus: until tomorrow, sure np ... just don't want to keep waiting till say the end of June ... coz I really can't do too much without the data ...16:52
paulproteusankitg, Remind me your email again?16:52
ankitgsmuankit [at] gmail is the one I check most16:52
paulproteusYou've got mail, and you can expect an answer by tomorrow.16:55
ankitgsweet, I just got access to the blog as well ... :)16:55
ankitgpaulproteus: danke ...16:56
ankitgI would post to the blog now ... except for the fact that it's 6 am here and I have a meeting in a few hours ... and sleeping during the meeting is for some reason frowned upon ...16:59
paulproteus(-:16:59
paulproteusThis time zone thing is going to be interesting.17:00
ankitgI'll post soon though ... :)17:00
ankitgpaulproteus: so i am to ping u tomorrow again, right?17:00
paulproteusYou should ping me daily on IRC until you get that data.17:01
paulproteusBut I believe tomorrow I will email you of my own accord to give it to you.17:01
ankitgpaulproteus: Just once a day ?? :(17:01
paulproteus(-:17:02
ankitgokie then ... will check my mail day after tomorrow ... should have something by then ... might not be your tomorrow when it's my tomorrow :)17:02
paulproteusWell, when I say tomorrow I mean 24h from now.17:03
paulproteusBut yeah. (-:17:03
paulproteusYou can feel free to bug me more often than that.17:03
paulproteusIf it gets to be too much, I'll tell you!17:03
ankitgk' ...17:03
ankitg24 hrs from would be 6 am tomorrow ... please let me sleep? lol ... will check day after ... gives you another afternoon to sort this out as well =)17:04
ankitgor does it ... dh this timezone thing is confusing ...17:05
ankitganyways I'll check in 24 + maybe 5/6 hours ...17:06
hdworak:)17:07
paulproteusYou can go to sleep! (-:17:07
paulproteusI have nothing more to tell you right now.17:07
paulproteusOther than this:17:07
paulproteusGo to sleep!17:07
hdworaklol, we've divided the globe into three time zones17:07
hdworakankitg: 00:08 here17:08
ankitgnice ... so that's my cue to change to a different channel, I guess ...17:08
ankitghdworak: I'll be 2.5 hours closer to you in about 9 days ... going to India for a bit =)17:09
hdworakI've never been to Asia17:09
hdworak:)17:10
ankitghdworak: Asheesh is easy to find on the IRC ... don't believe his email ... if you can match the US timings he's usually here ...17:11
hdworakn/p, I've got his irc chan/mail/jid17:12
hdworak:)17:12
hdworakok, I've added http://wiki.creativecommons.org/Rewrite_Metadata_Validator/SoC_200817:12
hdworak(a little more than a stub)17:12
hdworakplus an infobox with a link here:17:13
hdworakhttp://wiki.creativecommons.org/Rewrite_Metadata_Validator17:13
hdworakanywhere else to link it?17:13
paulproteushdworak, That's fine for now.17:13
hdworakcool :)17:13
paulproteusWrite up your techblog post.17:13
hdworakat first I thought about putting a whole proposal there (at wiki), but it contains a lot of personal (=boring) information, plus self-advertisement, plus promises etc.17:14
hdworakso utterly boring stuff when it comes a wiki article17:14
hdworaksynopsis+timeline is worth publishing though17:14
hdworakand I'll add info about the tools that I'm planning to use later this week17:15
paulproteushdworak, I also want to be able to have you and me leave the results of our communications/decisions in the wiki.17:15
paulproteusPerfect, like those tools.17:15
paulproteusYou're welcome to use that page (or sub pages) as your own bookmark list for help with these tools.17:15
hdworakright17:15
ankitgpaulproteus: if hdworak hasn't mentioned it yet ... the timeline says coding starts on the 26th [not the 28th as per your email] ,,,17:15
paulproteusankitg, Yeah, oops (-:17:15
hdworakit's just that paulproteus uses too much google17:16
hdworakI guess the 2007 timeline was a "I'm feeling lucky" result17:16
hdworak;)17:16
ankitgah17:16
paulproteusMakes sense; the 2007 timeline had a lot longer to get its PageRank up.17:17
hdworakofc17:18
ankitgI just use the GCal version of the timeline =)17:18
* ankitg sleeps ... g'day paulproteus ... g'nite hdworak ...17:20
hdworakI've been reading this "Git from the bottom up"17:20
hdworakankitg: good night :)17:20
paulproteusGood night, ankitg!17:20
paulproteushdworak, Great, I hope it has been making sense so far.17:20
hdworakis it so that I can actually add some files there now?17:20
hdworakor my access is restricted as yet?17:21
ankitgpaulproteus: mike replied ... :)17:21
hdworak(haven't tested)17:21
ankitgpaulproteus: the reply reads "ok"17:21
paulproteusankitg, I'm not talking to you until you've gone to sleep.17:21
paulproteus(Just saw it)17:21
ankitgpaulproteus: don't talk to me till I sleep ... but give me the data before I sleep ?? :D17:22
paulproteusMum's the word.17:22
ankitgyou don't have to say anything ... and no one needs to know ...17:22
* ankitg pretends to sleep with one eye on the inbox count ...17:23
paulproteusankitg, I promise, you'll get nothing from me.17:23
paulproteushdworak, You can commit to a repository called validator right now.17:23
* ankitg sleeps in the hopes of finding something cool in his mailbox tomorrow ...17:24
*** kristallpirat has joined #cc17:28
hdworakfine17:34
hdworakbut this is just a repository17:34
hdworakis there any Web server-type sandbox available?17:34
hdworakhttp://validator-sandbox.creativecommons.org/ or so?17:35
hdworakare you planning anything like that?17:35
hdworakor am I doing all the work/tests on localhost and upload the source code via git17:35
hdworakand we put that working on-line in August?17:35
paulproteushdworak, I'm fine either way.17:36
paulproteusActually, I prefer it the validator-sandbox.creativecommons.org way now that you mention it.17:37
hdworakwhat's the purpose of keeping now-defunct validator.creativecommons.org now?17:37
hdworakaside of sentimental reasons17:37
hdworakofc17:37
paulproteusWell, IMHO we should leave the "offline while we retool it" message up until we have a validator that can replace it.17:37
paulproteusEven a beta one.17:38
paulproteusBut not one that gives Error 500 and Python stack traces all the time. (-;17:38
hdworakyeah, that's pretty much confusing17:38
hdworakwell, one could think of a Pidgin's Web site-like simplicity for the front page17:39
hdworak(for the time being)17:39
hdworaksaying it's under development17:39
hdworakor whatever17:39
hdworakand then a link to17:39
paulproteusFor now, I think, let's not touch validator.creativecommons.org right now, and I can give you space at validator-sandbox.creativecommons.org.17:39
paulproteusOnce you have some code actually running in the sandbox we could add a link to validator-dot to validator-sandbox-dot.17:40
hdworakhttp://validator.creativecommons.org/dev/ or something17:40
hdworakor /sandbox/ I dunno17:40
paulproteusFor now, I think the separate subdomain will be easier to manage.17:41
hdworakok, I'll Disallow all in robots.txt17:41
hdworakso it's not indexed17:41
hdworakbut pls, could it be something shorter? :D17:41
paulproteusIn fact, btw, you'll find it very easy to develop on localhost.17:41
paulproteusvalidator-dev then?17:41
hdworaklike box.creativecommons.org or dev.creativecommons.org17:42
hdworakwhatever :)17:42
hdworakwell, I do develop Web applications on a laptop localhost17:42
hdworakI'm not uploading to see the results17:42
hdworakthough making a first test at the end of August on the target machine ain't a good solution imho17:43
hdworaka first=the first17:43
paulproteusWell let me put it this way then - let's leave it off the web for now, and once there is code worth putting on the web let's have this discussion?17:43
paulproteusWe can try to put this into the timeline even.17:43
paulproteusI agree that the deployment story will be important.17:43
hdworakno problem at all, paulproteus17:43
paulproteusBut you should learn Pylons and all these things first.  I have some good ideas about deployment since my other big CC project is also a Pylons project.17:43
hdworakI'm not planning a cc takeover17:44
hdworak:D17:44
paulproteusOh, I know (-:17:44
hdworakok, the first week is just it17:45
hdworakpylons+git+some seriously dummy application (output the input or something)17:45
hdworaksome=a17:45
paulproteusActually let's make the dummy application "output the input" inside a div, with proper HTML or XHTML escaping.17:46
paulproteus(Genshi should make that trivial, but I still want to see it.)17:46
hdworakI won't sign a code that is not well-formed and valid with my surname, don't worry17:47
paulproteus(-:17:47
hdworakthe only time I go below XHTML 1.1 is when I use a third-party WYSIWYG/WYSIWYM editor which of course is not written in a standards-compliant fashion (although the code such editors output may be valid XHTML 1.1 at times)17:49
