[05:24:50] [I have joined #sugar]
[05:25:05] <Quozl`_> samdroid: reminds me, i was in canberra last week.
[05:25:25] <samdroid> Quozl`_: Nice, how was it?
[05:25:42] <Quozl`_> cool. hired a mountain bike and rode around the lake.
[05:25:53] <Quozl`_> roughly where are you again? nsw or act?
[05:25:58] <GitHub56> [sugar-artwork] SAMdroid-apps opened pull request #45: Use `sugar:attach-points` instead of deprecated `.icon` file feature (master...svg-attach-points) http://git.io/jDEC
[05:26:27] <samdroid> Quozl`_: I'm in the ACT, in Woden
[05:26:45] <samdroid> the lake is very pretty :) Just don't swim in it :)
[05:27:11] <Quozl`_> nice indian restaurant in woden we visited on, hmm, wednesday night. the westfield was closing up, we had no idea where to eat. had gone there to visit bookshops.
[05:27:37] <Quozl`_> the indian had a nice view of pedestrian crossing and entrance to underground car park.
[05:28:10] <Quozl`_> the event of the evening was when a large vehicle struck the warning bar above the crossing, setting the whole awning structure vibrating like a bell.
[05:28:30] <samdroid> :)
[05:49:32] <k_yash1> walterbender, have a look on the comment on my PR...
[05:50:42] * k_yash1 going for class
[05:55:34] <walterbender> saw it... makes sense to me now. thx
[06:19:41] <samdroid> walterbender: Hey
[06:19:53] <walterbender> hi samdroid
[06:19:57] <samdroid> walterbender: Just noticed that TBjs doens't have a LISCENCE file!
[06:20:10] <walterbender> samdroid, Oh. No COPYING?
[06:20:10] <samdroid> walterbender: BTW, we should use the AGPL, not the GPL
[06:20:12] <samdroid> https://tldrlegal.com/license/gnu-affero-general-public-license-v3-%28agpl-3.0%29
[06:20:22] <walterbender> samdroid, yeah...
[06:20:26] <walterbender> I will fix it
[06:20:29] <samdroid> You and your crazy names :)
[06:20:36] <samdroid> You have a COPYING :)
[06:21:04] <walterbender> samdroid, but you are right about agpl
[06:21:23] <samdroid> BTW, how is India?
[06:21:37] <walterbender> great food
[06:21:42] <samdroid> :)
[06:21:44] <walterbender> lousy Internet
[06:21:56] <samdroid> really?
[06:22:17] <walterbender> finally have a decent connection, now that I am getting ready to leave
[06:22:42] <samdroid> :(
[06:23:38] <samdroid> walterbender: Also, we probably need to think about out dependancies
[06:23:45] <samdroid> walterbender: 2 ideas:
[06:24:13] <samdroid> 1. Have a list of their Licenses
[06:25:17] <samdroid> 2. I was thinking about using the "bower" thing to manage them all, it works very well with requirejs
[06:26:38] <samdroid> Also, I was wondering, what is the aim of the whole planet/samples-server thing, walterbender?
[06:28:09] <walterbender> samdroid, I had trouble with bower for dependencies
[06:28:40] <samdroid> walterbender: How?
[06:28:57] <walterbender> wasn't finding the prefix....min.js file
[06:29:20] <walterbender> maybe it was a browser refresh problem, but I don't think so
[06:29:32] <samdroid> oh, when I added it with prefix-free?
[06:29:34] <walterbender> so I moved it to lib
[06:29:47] <walterbender> which I guess is exactly what you didn't want
[06:29:51] <samdroid> :)
[06:30:09] <samdroid> bower keeps them versioned and gitted and nice things :)
[06:30:44] <samdroid> Maybe I forgot to add the path in require js
[06:30:49] <samdroid> I will look at that tommorow
[06:31:40] <samdroid> walterbender: Different topic, what is the aim of the samples-server/planet?
[06:31:44] <samdroid> Do you have a vision?
[06:31:47] <walterbender> one sec
[06:33:44] <walterbender> samdroid, the long-term idea was to use something like a git backend
[06:33:58] <walterbender> so people could clone, fork, merge projects
[06:34:13] <samdroid> ah, sounds cool
[06:34:19] <walterbender> the current server was just a quick and dirty placeholder
[06:34:47] <samdroid> maybe we could put the journal into journal :badum-cha!:
[06:35:19] <samdroid> I might try and write up some user stories
[06:35:39] <samdroid> Do you have any ui ideas in mind?
[06:35:54] <walterbender> samdroid, nothing solid yet
[06:36:31] <samdroid> Well I will make a wiki page
[06:37:50] <walterbender> OK
[06:38:07] <walterbender> I have a cool project cooking here
[06:38:35] <walterbender> they have a tree project: a big database on specific trees throughout the country
[06:38:48] <walterbender> we'll make a web service and a new block to access the data
[06:39:00] <walterbender> then you can write programs about trees
[06:39:30] <walterbender> have the turtle map the trees... sort them by height, etc.
[06:40:40] <samdroid> Yeah
[06:40:42] * walterbender back in 5
[06:40:45] <samdroid> That sounds cool
[06:40:59] <samdroid> walterbender: When your back, what do you think about collab in TBjs?
[06:41:01] <walterbender> web services and Turtle is such a nice combo
[06:41:12] <walterbender> samdroid, has to happen
[06:41:21] <walterbender> we have a GSoC project for it this summer
[06:41:35] <walterbender> it is a cool part of the Python version
[06:43:43] <samdroid> yeah, I agree
[06:48:39] <samdroid> walterbender: Here are some stories: https://github.com/walterbender/turtleblocksjs/wiki/Planet-User-Stories
[06:53:42] <walterbender> samdroid, added a few more wants
[06:54:37] <samdroid> walterbender: Thanks :)
[06:55:04] <walterbender> good to get this process better articulated
[06:55:23] <walterbender> we have got hindi and maharati translations now :)
[06:55:38] <walterbender> did a workshop in hindi this week :)
[06:55:49] <walterbender> oh... no samdroid
[07:24:26] * walterbender heading to the airport
[14:06:42] <rafikh> Hello
[14:39:10] <exploreshaifali> tch, around?
[14:39:16] <tch> exploreshaifali, yes
[14:39:30] <tch> exploreshaifali, how are you
[14:39:46] <exploreshaifali> tch, I am good, Thanks!
[14:39:59] <exploreshaifali> was just wrapping things with Outreachy internship
[14:40:06] <exploreshaifali> its done!
[14:40:39] <exploreshaifali> tch, so I had a question before we will discuss the questions that were raised on ML
[14:40:57] <exploreshaifali> tch, I am assuming that we will have a server
[14:41:19] <exploreshaifali> that will serve all the users their and others repo data from cloud
[14:41:27] <exploreshaifali> tch, correct?
[14:41:59] <exploreshaifali> tch, also how are you?
[14:42:36] <tch> exploreshaifali, yes, and which should provide a "high level" API for activities and eventually to journal,
[14:43:01] <tch> exploreshaifali, I am fine, the weather is unexpectedly nice today (for Paraguay)
[14:43:12] <exploreshaifali> tch, but than we will also need a unique username for each user
[14:43:39] <exploreshaifali> haha :D
[14:44:00] <tch> exploreshaifali, yes, and some kind of file system path schema for the users repositories,
[14:44:51] <exploreshaifali> tch, so for unique username, will we ask all kid to set a username for them?
[14:45:38] k_yash is now known as k_yash__away
[14:45:40] <exploreshaifali> the workflow I am assuming is to be very similar to that of github
[14:46:01] k_yash__away is now known as k_yash_
[14:46:15] k_yash_ is now known as k_yash
[14:46:25] <exploreshaifali> like if user want to version his repo will click on button that we will provide them
[14:47:01] <exploreshaifali> then on a versioned repo they can add CRUD other files
[14:47:09] <exploreshaifali> tch, ^
[14:47:38] <tch> exploreshaifali, we will probably need a registration step (or similar)
[14:47:50] <exploreshaifali> tch, yes
[14:48:32] <exploreshaifali> tch, and what you mean by - file system path schema for the users repositories?
[14:48:54] <tch> exploreshaifali, its all a bit cloudy still, but would be good to have a mind map of all the concepts and see how they relate
[14:49:27] <tch> exploreshaifali, well, the server must have copies of the users repositories
[14:49:45] <tch> exploreshaifali, these repositories should be organized in some way in the filesystem
[14:50:03] <tch> exploreshaifali, that is what I mean, ie., $INSTALLATION_
[14:50:07] <tch> errt,
[14:50:18] <tch> $INSTALLATION_PATH/userid/...
[14:50:23] <tch> that kind of thing,
[14:50:33] <exploreshaifali> tch, okay, so I am planning to prepare a prototype of UI, is it okay to do now or you think we should do something else befor eit?
[14:50:51] <exploreshaifali> *before it
[14:52:03] <tch> exploreshaifali, the most important thing is to define the UX, ie., describing what can users do with this new backend from activities
[14:52:13] <tch> exploreshaifali, that can be translated into a UI design later
[14:52:35] <tch> exploreshaifali, but if you think that a mockup would help to cover both then is fine
[14:52:43] <exploreshaifali> tch, okay!
[14:53:40] <exploreshaifali> tch, so I will define the features that we will add( what can users do with this new backend from activities) then the work flow and then will prepare a mockup
[14:53:56] <tch> exploreshaifali, sounds good :)
[14:54:12] <exploreshaifali> tch, great, Thanks!
