everton137Hi, why if I log in  wiki.creativecommons.org using OpenID I cannot edit the pages?01:44
paulproteusnkinkade, Yo01:45
paulproteusShould we make everton137's question a FAQ?01:45
paulproteuseverton137, I think it has to do with our requirement that you have a confirmed email address with us.01:45
paulproteusI don't know if we intend to waive that requirement for OpenID users.01:45
paulproteusIt seems particularly onerous for them.01:45
everton137paulproteus, Today I tried to edit Portuguese version using my OpenId (stoa.usp.br/tom) and discovered I should register the MediaWiki. I just wondered if there is some security reason for this...01:46
paulproteusI think it's to avoid bots using OpenID from spamming the wiki.01:47
paulproteusNow that we're talking about it, I think it's kind of lame; I think we should just change it so that OpenID users have to solve a CAPTCHA if they add links.01:48
everton137I agree.01:48
everton137paulproteus, for the sake of curiosity, have you seem some bot using OpenID for spamming somewhere?01:52
paulproteusI've never, no.01:53

nkinkadepaulproteus: ?17:36
paulproteusHi.17:38
*** Bovinity has joined #cc17:38
paulproteusWhy the "?"?17:38
nkinkadepaulproteus: The ? is because I refuse to use computer metaphors to get someone's attention.17:43
nkinkadeAnd I see it worked.17:43
paulproteusMet a fore!17:44
nkinkadeI was going to ask you question about stagootle, but I sent you an email.17:44
nkinkadeNothing too big, just a confirmation about the provenance of that user.17:44
paulproteusThe idea of Stagootle is that he's the UID for the staging Mozootle.17:44

nkinkademecredis: http://creativecommons.org/commoners18:43
nkinkadeI just noticed that your post is missing the image next to it.18:43
Bovinityaviary doesn't have an attached image18:43
nkinkadeNot sure what triggers that.18:43
nkinkadeaviary?18:43
Bovinitymecredis: plz attach an image18:43
Bovinitythe aviary remix post18:43
Bovinityactually, that post isn't a featured commoner18:44
Bovinityas such18:44
nkinkadeBovinity: How do you attach an image?18:45
nkinkadeI know the "Add Image" etc links.18:45
Bovinityright, same thing18:45
nkinkadeBut for one that's working, I don't see that image.18:45
nkinkadeOh, does it automatically resize the first one?18:45
Bovinityno, it won't resize18:45
*** mecredis has quit IRC18:46
Bovinityif you just add an image, it'll be associated/attached to that post, and appear on the FC archive. you don't need to embed it in the post body.18:46
*** mecredis has joined #cc18:47
*** stevel has quit IRC18:47
nkinkadeAh, and if there is more than one image it will use the 2nd?18:47
Bovinityit uses the first18:48
nkinkadeThe first one added, but the 2nd in the list.18:48
nkinkadeThat's how it seems to be working for http://creativecommons.org/weblog/entry/1059518:48
Bovinityoh, my bad, it gets the last thing attached18:49
Bovinity(WP attachment system is kinda wonky)18:49
*** sama_ has quit IRC18:49
nkinkadeBovinity: so that post by mecredis is miscategorized?18:50
Bovinitynkinkade: as far as standard featured commoners posts go, yes... that said, it is a featured commoner18:51
*** mecredis has quit IRC18:52
*** stevel has joined #cc18:52
*** mecredis has joined #cc18:52
nkinkadeI'm a bit confused by that comment.18:52
nkinkadeBut mecredis can attach a photo where necessary.18:52
Bovinity"featured commoners" are usually interviews with someone using cc18:53
Bovinitythat article is just an article about a project using cc18:53
mecredisoh yeah18:57
mecredisnot sure how that happened18:57
mecredisnkinkade: is editing it18:57
mecredisso18:57
mecredisI'll let him get to the bottom of it18:57
Bovinitymecredis: miscategorised. you hit the featured commoner category ;)18:57
mecredisyeah, somehow18:57
*** jgay has joined #cc18:58
nkinkademecredis: I'm was just looking at it ... go ahead and do what you need to do.18:59

nkinkadepaulproteus: ?20:06
nkinkade:-)20:06
paulproteusHowdy.20:06
nkinkadeI think I'm about ready to try to get CiviCRM into git.20:06
paulproteusIf you want to really "refuse to use computer metaphors," you can just say what you want to ask, rather than say the empty thing hoping to get my attention.20:06
paulproteusThat's very interesting.20:07
nkinkadepaulproteus: I wasn't sure if you were at lunch or not.20:07
nkinkadeAnd I didn't want to get to the point without you being there.20:07
paulproteusI'd eventually read scrollback, you know. (-:20:07
nkinkadeI know, but it's less fun for me that way.20:08
paulproteus(-:20:08
paulproteusBTW I'm now using git instead of offlineimap for mail synchronization.20:08
paulproteusThe experiment began two nights ago, and so far it's going pretty well.20:08
*** balor has quit IRC20:08
nkinkadeWow.  What won't git be used for?20:08
paulproteusLet me fiddle with my Stagootle for a few minutes and then we'll sync up.20:08
nkinkadeCool.20:08
* paulproteus fiddles and gets more confused20:27
paulproteusWell, let's talk about your problems.20:27
paulproteusFirst of all, let's put CiviCRM in with my auto update scripts.20:29
*** Ekushey has quit IRC20:30
paulproteusWhere is your current git-svn clone of CiviCRM?20:30
nkinkadepaulproteus: a6:/home/paulproteus20:32
paulproteusHah.20:32
nkinkadeIf I recall, that was where you preferred it to be for you scripts20:33
*** Ekushey has joined #cc20:33
paulproteusThese days I use ~sheeshcron:gitted/20:33
nkinkadepaulproteus: That's on a7, right?20:33
paulproteuson a7 apparently20:33
paulproteusYeah, I'll move it.20:33
nkinkadeIt's only about 500M, so it should go quick.20:34
nkinkadeAnd this couldn't happen at a better time because a security fix release just came out for CiviCRM.20:34
paulproteusNeat.20:34
paulproteusWhat's the bug like?20:34
nkinkadeSo we can use git to merge in the changes.20:35
nkinkadeAt least that's my understanding. :-)20:35
paulproteusI sure hope so.20:35
nkinkadeI haven't checked the changelog yet.20:35
paulproteusI like my git sync scripts for my Maildirs so far.20:36
nkinkade"The vulnerability addressed could allow a remote user with insufficient permissions to access CiviCRM functionality via the API and / or command line scripts."20:36
paulproteusNeat.20:37
paulproteusSo there's a live CiviCRM running somewhere that you want to make a branch of some svn tag, right?20:37
paulproteusAre the CiviCRM guys good about tagging and branching?20:38
paulproteusGood thing we got that 10Gb Ethernet fiber line between the servers.20:43
*** adjohn has joined #cc20:47
paulproteusLooks to me like they have a nonstandard layout which git-svn needed to have been told about if it were to have imported their tags.20:47
* paulproteus quietly starts a fresh import with different parameters20:51

Sterensorry, hi :)21:42
paulproteusHowdy (-:21:44
Sterenhey paulproteus, Ive a question for your impressive French skills ;), how would you say in English "une personne visuelle"? literally somebody "who has a good visual sense"21:49
paulproteusHmm!21:49
paulproteus"A visual person" could be fine.21:49
paulproteusBut...21:49
Sterenyeah I wondered if I could use visual21:50
paulproteusYeah, I think that's the best I can do right now; Bovinity may confirm or deny this phrase.21:50
*** Ekushey- has quit IRC21:50
Bovinityi can confirm that it works, but what's the context?21:50
Sterenyou know when someone has a better visual sense of things in general, better than ausio, or text21:51
Steren*audio21:51
Sterenlike Bovinity and his awesome design at CC21:52
paulproteusIt's true, that's why I invoked him. (-:21:52
Bovinitybovinity.invoke()21:53
BovinitySteren: but yes, that sentance is correct. possible "aural" isntead of "audio", but otherwise :)21:54
Sterenthanks a lot you two21:57
