I had some trouble with the form integration, which is why this is taking so long. 2011-09-16 12:08:28+0000 <antoviaque> there is: pressbook, video, banners, (simple) registration page for the card idea contest 2011-09-16 12:08:58+0000 <tartarugafeliz> that's so coool!! 2011-09-16 12:09:46+0000 <arbrandes> tartarugafeliz, try making a mistake in the form: you'll see an ugly red button I whipped up just to test. If you can provide those 3 error buttons in the same size, it would be great! :) 2011-09-16 12:09:50+0000 <antoviaque> yep, very cool : ) 2011-09-16 12:10:14+0000 <tartarugafeliz> yes, I've made the design for all the errors in the forms too 2011-09-16 12:10:23+0000 <tartarugafeliz> I'll send pngs and screenshots for you 2011-09-16 12:10:55+0000 <arbrandes> tartarugafeliz, thanks :) 2011-09-16 12:11:36+0000 <antoviaque> btw arbrandes: would be good to apply the home page design to the rest of the interface at some point btw (basically with the board game interface instead of the header/logo/form, the reste of the page remaining the same as on the home 2011-09-16 12:11:59+0000 <antoviaque> do you want me to put it as a new story for next sprint? 2011-09-16 12:12:01+0000 <arbrandes> antoviaque, hmm, that may be problematic 2011-09-16 12:12:19+0000 <antoviaque> what would block? 2011-09-16 12:12:29+0000 <arbrandes> there would be a lot of HTML duplication 2011-09-16 12:12:42+0000 <arbrandes> unless we abandon the standalone version of CS 2011-09-16 12:12:43+0000 <tartarugafeliz> its not possible to just load the game on top of the home page? 2011-09-16 12:13:12+0000 <tartarugafeliz> instead of the logo and the illustration, when you click enter, it loads on the same place, that would be perfect 2011-09-16 12:13:19+0000 <antoviaque> yup, good technical idea tartarugafeliz : ) 2011-09-16 12:13:26+0000 <antoviaque> maybe a lightbox with an iframe? 2011-09-16 12:13:40+0000 <tartarugafeliz> yes, that's what I had in mind 2011-09-16 12:13:43+0000 <arbrandes> I hate iframes, but it's possible, yes 2011-09-16 12:13:51+0000 <antoviaque> ahahaha 2011-09-16 12:14:01+0000 <arbrandes> There might be more elegant solutions, I have to check :) 2011-09-16 12:14:02+0000 <antoviaque> what do you have against iframe arbrandes? :p 2011-09-16 12:14:17+0000 <antoviaque> it's pretty clean to use them now no? 2011-09-16 12:14:31+0000 <arbrandes> iframes suck because the user doesn't see their URL in the bar 2011-09-16 12:14:52+0000 <arbrandes> And the developer has to translate query's to/from the iframe 2011-09-16 12:15:11+0000 <antoviaque> ah, yep 2011-09-16 12:15:23+0000 <arbrandes> Ideally, we'd *insert* the CS dom into the page 2011-09-16 12:15:48+0000 <arbrandes> But, again, that would have to be researched. The CS dom is pretty clean 2011-09-16 12:15:51+0000 <antoviaque> not handy here - those problems can be solved (we used it a lot in HPO to simulate a browser window), but too big for here 2011-09-16 12:16:25+0000 <antoviaque> I see 2011-09-16 12:16:59+0000 <antoviaque> but the code duplication wouldn't be too bad no? It's basically what already happens now 2011-09-16 12:17:38+0000 <arbrandes> Actually, we don't do that anymore, the homepage/django HTML is separate from CS. 2011-09-16 12:17:53+0000 <arbrandes> Meaning, there's no overlap 2011-09-16 12:18:05+0000 <antoviaque> ok 2011-09-16 12:18:05+0000 <arbrandes> Anyway, I'm not saying it's not possible 2011-09-16 12:18:16+0000 <arbrandes> Just that it's not easy, and possibly not very clean 2011-09-16 12:18:29+0000 <antoviaque> yep, just trying to get an idea of what is involved technically 2011-09-16 12:18:59+0000 <arbrandes> (and that I'm still not sure what would be the best way to implement it) 2011-09-16 12:19:18+0000 <antoviaque> hmm, actually, every time we change the URL, we use the reload() method right? 2011-09-16 12:20:00+0000 <arbrandes> Yes (but as far as I can tell, it only happens once) 2011-09-16 12:20:10+0000 <antoviaque> to keep the main browser url in a iframe/lightbox, could it be just a matter of altering the reload() method? 2011-09-16 12:21:19+0000 * arbrandes thinking 2011-09-16 12:23:17+0000 <antoviaque> there would still be some handling to do on the django side imho, to handle the url 2011-09-16 12:23:33+0000 <antoviaque> but it could actually be a way to have clean urls for games 2011-09-16 12:23:36+0000 <arbrandes> Oh, there would definitely be changes on both sides 2011-09-16 12:23:54+0000 <arbrandes> But that is precisely the problem 2011-09-16 12:24:06+0000 <arbrandes> Ideally, we'd change nothing on CS 2011-09-16 12:24:13+0000 <arbrandes> (since it's meant to run standalone too) 2011-09-16 12:24:18+0000 <arbrandes> But again, it might not be possible 2011-09-16 12:24:31+0000 <arbrandes> (to do it so cleanly, I mean) 2011-09-16 12:24:51+0000 <antoviaque> yep 2011-09-16 12:25:17+0000 <arbrandes> If it's a simple "if I'm running in an iframe, do this, if not, do that", it's not too bad 2011-09-16 12:26:39+0000 <antoviaque> ok - what do you prefer that I do for this? I put a story about it (and maybe another one about clean urls) for the next sprint, so you have time to think about it? 2011-09-16 12:26:39+0000 <arbrandes> Well, ok, I think we better think about this when we get to it. There are other stories in front :) 2011-09-16 12:27:03+0000 <antoviaque> yep : ) 2011-09-16 12:27:30+0000 <arbrandes> Yes, I agree, a nice little story describing the user experience (instead of the technical aspects) would be ideal 2011-09-16 12:27:41+0000 <arbrandes> Then we worry about how to do it :) 2011-09-16 12:27:48+0000 <antoviaque> ok! 2011-09-16 12:30:36+0000 <antoviaque> anything else btw for this meeting? 2011-09-16 12:31:33+0000 <arbrandes> Not from me :) 2011-09-16 12:31:40+0000 <antoviaque> ok! 2011-09-16 12:31:45+0000 <antoviaque> eve: end dailymeeting 2011-09-16 12:31:46+0000 <eve> Meeting Ended 2011-09-16 12:31:46+0000 <eve> Minutes available at http://paste.pocoo.org/show/476970 2011-09-16 12:33:14+0000 <antoviaque> arbrandes: my agenda just reminded me we have a 121 in 30 minutes - but I also realise that I didn't take my headsets, I'll have to buy some... 2011-09-16 12:33:25+0000 <antoviaque> Is there another good time for you in the coming days? 2011-09-16 12:33:30+0000 <arbrandes> antoviaque, hehehe, if you want to postpone it, it's ok :) 2011-09-16 12:33:39+0000 <antoviaque> :) thanks - and sorry! :p 2011-09-16 12:33:48+0000 <arbrandes> Any time is good, just give me an hour heads up.

How's airbnb working out, btw? 2011-09-16 12:51:15+0000 arbrandes (arbrandes) is now online 2011-09-16 12:52:23+0000 <antoviaque> arbrandes: airbnb works *really* well, we've booked our flat every single day until the 30st (3 different clients), we're repaying our monthly rent in 2 weeks :) 2011-09-16 12:52:24+0000 <antoviaque> It's a bit of work to setup (descriptions, pictures, organization, finding people to manage the flat/welcome guests/clean...), but the reward is really cool - it covers all the travel costs (hosting&train tickets), so at the end traveling while working for farsides doesn't cost us more money than if we were staying in Paris - we actually earn a little bit more :D 2011-09-16 12:52:58+0000 <arbrandes> AWESOME-O!!! 2011-09-16 12:53:02+0000 <antoviaque> :D 2011-09-16 12:53:08+0000 <arbrandes> This is so exciting! 2011-09-16 12:53:13+0000 <antoviaque> hehehe, yep! 2011-09-16 12:53:21+0000 <antoviaque> finally a way to live a nomadic life :p 2011-09-16 12:53:22+0000 <arbrandes> I get to keep my flat, AND travel, AND make a little money on top? 2011-09-16 12:53:28+0000 <antoviaque> yep hehehe 2011-09-16 12:53:42+0000 <antoviaque> well you also get some organisational work, to be completely fair 2011-09-16 12:53:49+0000 <antoviaque> +customer care 2011-09-16 12:53:49+0000 <arbrandes> This is too good to be true...
