hdworakhi11:58
hdworakpaulproteus: have you read what I did yesterday? do you think it's okay to put in in the CC Wiki article or skip it?11:59
paulproteushdworak, Sorry, I missed it, let me see the logs.11:59
hdworakwhen should I upload things to the git repository: whenever I write anything, whenever I write anything working, whenever I reach milestone, before evaluation, or at the final phase?12:09
paulproteusFirst of all, you should do local commits early and often.12:10
paulproteusThose don't upload anything unless you ask git to.12:11
paulproteusThat's one of the joys of git.12:11
paulproteusBut in truth, I would love it if if you would push all of those changes to our git repository.12:11
hdworakwhat about pylons integration? should I push everything with pylons included or just the files belonging to my application?12:11
paulproteusJust the files belonging to your application.12:12
hdworakwhat about the CC Website template?12:12
hdworakare we doing any sort of integration here?12:12
paulproteusYou won't be using that yet.12:12
paulproteusThat'll come later.12:12
hdworaklater = at GSOC or really later?12:12
paulproteuslater == during GSOC12:12
hdworakok12:13
paulproteusHere's what I suggest: Start with this file - http://wiki.pylonshq.com/pages/viewpageattachments.action?pageId=1169853512:13
paulproteusUnpack it, and commit it to git.12:13
hdworakok, so back to the CC Wiki12:13
paulproteusDo your work on top of that.12:13
paulproteus(Next step would be to add Genshi)12:13
hdworakshould I put everything even indirectly related to the project (like yesterday) or just directly related things?12:14
*** bkhl has joined #cc12:14
hdworakI'm reading http://wiki.pylonshq.com/display/pylonscookbook/Making+a+Pylons+Blog12:14
hdworakI've installed pylons via synaptic12:15
*** stevel has joined #cc12:15
paulproteusGreat, hdworak.12:15
paulproteusMake sure you are working with Pylons 0.9.6 or above.12:15
paulproteushdworak, All of that can be written on your wiki page.12:15
paulproteusIf it gets too cluttered we can reorganize it.12:15
paulproteus(I just read your web browser discussion at http://mirrors.creativecommons.org/irc/cc/%23cc.2008-05-27.log.html )12:16
hdworakyes12:16
*** nkinkade has joined #cc12:16
hdworakit can be useful for other ppl, I guess12:16
paulproteusLike me!12:17
hdworakI've spent quite a few hours on this one12:17
hdworakbut there's one thing to remember12:17
*** jordon has left #cc12:17
hdworakyou need a legal copy of Windows (any version, even 95) to use MSIE like that12:17
paulproteusGetting used to Pylons may take some time; I'm happy to help answer questions while I'm awake, and #pylons will probably be able to answer all the time.12:17
* paulproteus nods12:17
paulproteusHonestly, you have so much to do for now that I would not worry about other browsers than (say) Firefox right now.12:17
paulproteusGet your Pylons blog working first.12:17
hdworak:D12:18
paulproteusAnd then figure out how to make such a project work using Genshi.12:18
paulproteusAnd commit early, and commit often, and push often.12:18
paulproteusThere's a lot of tools you'll need to get comfortable with just for your own use, let alone the browsers others will use. (-:12:18
paulproteusSo make notes and decide you'll come back to that issue later.12:19
paulproteusURL for pylons blog tutorial you're doing?12:19
hdworakwell, when it comes to the browsers, I've got it out of the way by now12:19
paulproteusOh, good point. (-:12:19
hdworakhttp://wiki.pylonshq.com/display/pylonscookbook/Making+a+Pylons+Blog12:19
hdworakI'm working on the localhost12:19
hdworakI don't have any Python-aware Web account12:20
paulproteusOkay, this looks good.12:20
hdworak:)12:20
paulproteusYou should get some practice using git; I'm going to be trying to impose good git practices on you later on.12:20
hdworakok, but you can delete every CC Wiki article and erase the git repository?12:21
paulproteus?12:21
hdworakwell, when I do a stupid commit12:21
hdworakthat I would not like to stay there12:22
hdworakfor instance12:22
paulproteusGit lets you clean that up.12:22
hdworakor I'll write an article just to find that it's irrelevant later12:22
paulproteusDo your stupid commits in a separate branch from your good commits.12:22
paulproteusOr do your stupid commits locally, and use git's "amend" feature to change them once you have commits you prefer.12:22
paulproteusAnd only then push.12:22
hdworakok, 'cause when it came to CVS on sourceforge, we had to write a ticket for that to the sf crew12:22
paulproteusYeah, well, please forget everything you know about CVS.12:23
paulproteusIt has basically nothing to do with git.12:23
paulproteus(-:12:23
hdworakno problem12:25
paulproteus"Local commits" make a huge difference.12:25
hdworakI'm gonna write a book on git+pylons+genshi+rdfa in August12:25
hdworakare you running Ubuntu?12:26
paulproteusLaptop Ubuntu, desktop Debian.12:26
paulproteusI work on Pylons projects on both.12:27
hdworakok :)12:28

hdworakthe tutorial involves many steps12:39
hdworakbut I've managed to complete it so far: http://www.imagesduo.com/uploads/441519VKvgYDIL5GK8fxBZyj4WqrvKow2QpCL.png12:40
hdworaknow I need to analyse this12:40
hdworakwhat do you use for the database there at cc?12:44
hdworakpostgres, mysql, sqlite?12:44
*** nkinkade has joined #cc12:45
*** kristallpirat has quit IRC12:46
nathany_hdworak: are you still waiting for an answer re: database?12:50
hdworakyes, I'm not chatting with anyone behind your back :)12:50
nathany_i wouldn't care if you were, just didn't want to both answering if you already had one :)12:51
paulproteushdworak, For now, use sqlite.12:51
paulproteusWe'll transition you to MySQL later.12:51
nathany_there you go12:51
hdworakok, I did a tutorial on MySQL12:51
hdworakthanks12:51
paulproteuslol, it says "Hi, paulproteus"12:51
paulproteushdworak, Next step for you is to move it to Genshi templates.12:51
paulproteus(As I see it, at least.)12:51
hdworakwhen I do PHP, I use MySQL or XML for the model12:51
* paulproteus nods12:51
*** rejon has quit IRC12:52
hdworakhold on12:53
hdworakmaybe there's a genshi+pylons tutorial12:53
hdworakthat could save some time12:53
hdworakgoogling it atm12:53
*** nathany has quit IRC12:53
paulproteushdworak, Probably best to ask #pylons what the best such tutorial is.12:54
paulproteusI see a few.12:54
hdworakhttp://wiki.pylonshq.com/display/pylonscookbook/Genshi+templates12:55
*** ajbrooks has quit IRC12:55
paulproteushttp://wiki.pylonshq.com/display/pylonscookbook/Genshi+templates looks good to me, though.12:55
paulproteusYeah.12:55
hdworakhehe12:55
*** ajbrooks has joined #cc12:55
hdworakand there's #python-genshi12:56
paulproteusWell, that tutorial seems like a good start for now.12:56
hdworakok, now I need to look for a pylons+genshi+rdfa tutorial12:57
hdworakj/k12:57
ajbrooksis there a hardy cc repository or will the feisty one work ok with a hardy system?13:04
*** tvol has quit IRC13:04
paulproteusajbrooks, The Feisty one should work okay.13:05
paulproteusIt could use some loving, though.13:05

nkinkadenathany_: Does mkdeeds also compile the po files to mo's?13:36
nathany_no13:37
nathany_buildout does that as part of the application assembly process13:37
nathany_you can run:13:37
nathany_$ ./bin/buildout install i18n13:37
nathany_to just re-run that part13:37
nkinkadeah ha.13:37
* paulproteus is truckin' along from home btw13:37
nkinkadeThat's just what I was looking for.  Thanks.13:37
jgayhey, does anybody know of any rock stars that run GNU/Linux?13:39
paulproteusTo narrow the search space, are there rock stars people can think of who care about computers?13:39
paulproteusI can't, but I'm not a huge rock star follower.13:40
paulproteusMaybe Pitchfork might know.13:40
hdworakrms performs a song about GNU philosophy, but it ain't rock13:40
jgayhdworak: yeah, I actually formatted the free software song in lilypond ... I am actually looking for any entertainer/famous person that runs GNU/Linux13:43
hdworakMark Shuttleworth is the first African person to go to space13:45
hdworakyou can think of him as famous in this way13:45
hdworak"Super model Cindy Margolis works since several years with the Operating System Debian, a combination of the Linux-Kernel and components of the GNU-Project [..]"13:46

hdworakWil Wheaton (http://imdb.com/name/nm0000696/) (Wesley Crusher from Star Trek Next Gen).13:48
hdworakyou can read about his GNU/Linux experience in his blog13:48
jgayhdworak: yeah, I don't think Wil Wheaton counts ... he's a 'celebrity' that is making his life out of being a geek, hehe.13:49
hdworakhey, I've never been outside Europe13:50
hdworakso it's not my world13:50
jgayhe kind of went the other way around -- being a super geek led him to star trek which led him to become a celebrity, but mainly amongst people who watch star trek13:50
jgayhdworak: European celebrities work, too :-)13:50
hdworakif I remember correctly, his blog is hosted by the company that runs www.ipv6porn.com13:51
hdworak(not a sex link)13:51
paulproteusThat's an ingenious plan.13:56
hdworakindeed13:56
hdworaklooking forward to its outcome13:56
hdworakain't difficult to configure Ubuntu to use a tunnel, even if you do not have a public IPv413:57
paulproteusajbrooks, http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Semantic_Forms#Uploading_files - glad you asked, eh?13:58

paulproteusnkinkade, Why'd a5 get rebooted?14:04
nkinkadeBecause I applied a kernel upgrade.14:04
nkinkadeDid it interrupt some process you had going?  I didn't see that anyone was logged in or otherwise had a terminal.14:05
paulproteusIt's just the place I run my nightly stats cron job.14:07
paulproteusAnd I feel bad when it gets interrupted.14:08
hdworak[*]14:09
nkinkadeDoes it really run nightly?  It's 2PM where that machine is located.  Or does it run more or less constantly.14:10
paulproteusIt's pretty close to constantly.14:10
paulproteuscrontab -l will say when it runs.14:11
paulproteusI really don't remember.14:11
nkinkadeHow should I hand this in the future?  And the script can't recover after a reboot or otherwise being interrupted?14:11
paulproteusWell, it'd be nice if I don't have to re-engineer this thing to handle death gracefully.14:15
paulproteusI'd be happy to touch a file somewhere when my script doesn't mind a reboot.14:16
paulproteusSo that that if that file exists, I officially Don't Mind.14:16
paulproteusThat's not great, though.14:16
paulproteusnathany_, SYN14:17
paulproteusnkinkade, The nice thing about my "touch a file" thing is you could do:14:18
paulproteuswhile [ ! -f /home/paulproteus/reboot-ok ] ; do14:18
paulproteussleep 2m14:18
paulproteusreboot14:18
paulproteusSomething like that could be left in a screen.14:18
paulproteusBut then I guess you're not in control of when the reboot would happen then.14:18
paulproteusnathany_, If I fly out to see my parents Thursday June 12 and come back Tue June 17 evening, would that plan interfere with the Tech Summit timetable?14:19
*** bheekling has quit IRC14:20
paulproteusnkinkade, I dunno, what do you think?14:20
nathany_paulproteus: that's fine; you'll need to be down @ Google by 9-ish14:23
paulproteusnathany_, How are you getting there Wed morning?14:23
nathany_so assuming you can be up for that, no problems here14:23
nathany_unknown; probably zip car14:23
nkinkadepaulproteus: I don't really like that idea.  A better idea would simply be for me to be more organized about it and to actually schedule reboots and make sure everyone is aware that when they will happend.14:23
nathany_in which case i can drive you14:23
paulproteusnathany_, Right14:24
paulproteusnkinkade, Okay, I like that plan too.14:24
nathany_paulproteus: of course, i may be leaving slightly earlier than you'd absolutely have to... just fyi14:24
