It is good that you're trying to help, and I can understand you think a
custom command is helpful. But what you really need is a desktop file.
A desktop file ensures that things work correctly (correct mime types,
startup notification, etc). There are programs which already allow you
to create such desktop files, e.g. alacarte (though it had some issues).

Note that some time will always be wasted. E.g. Mattias probably looks
at various patches which have bugs in them. Pretty much wasted time
because he wouldn't have to spend time if people did exactly what he
visioned.
Or in other words: accepting patches because you spend time on the patch
is not how things are or should be done.

 Portability considerations

 - The api that we are presenting here is fairly similar to OS X'
 NSNotification api, and should be easily implementable on top of it
 
 - After looking for notification apis on windows, we are confident
 that this api proposal is confident with the win8 notification
 guidelines and api ('toast'...). It will not be a very good fit for
 traditional icon+balloon messages.

Would a Qt/KDE application be able to show notifications as well? Would
this require freedesktop.org work, or is the intention to keep this

Fwd: i18n of app menus

2012-01-22 Thread Olav Vitters
How can those app menus be translated? Is anyone on the gnome-i18n
mailing list?
-- 
Regards,
Olav
---BeginMessage---
Hi guys,

I'm sure many of you have heard of the new 3.4 feature, application
menu [1]. There is one problem with it from the i18n perspective: app
menus are not translatable. Affected apps seems to be epiphany,
gnome-contacts, but not gnome-boxes and gnome-documents. The issue
with the former is that they use an .ui file which is not a standard
Glade file format, see [2]. I've tried to mark these strings as
translatable in numerous ways, but I can't make them appear in PO
files.

So my question is: does anyone have any idea how to fix it? Maybe I
should file a bug against GTK+?

 If you are so concerned about politeness and non-controversy of this
 list then kick Emmanuele too. Or are only members of Gnome foundation
 board allowed to be rude on this list? :p

I don't really care about politeness or non-controversy. I more follow
the ideas of https://live.gnome.org/CodeOfConduct.

To expand on politeness or non-controversy:
With politeness or non-controversy you might get a list where you cannot
say that (just saying something) OS X support is terrible because this
might not be considered polite or might be controversial. Or similar,
you might get meta-discussions if something could be stated.

I enjoy good discussions and people disagreeing.

Regarding code of conduct:
I think it is unavoidable to have an not so nice email every once in a
while. Perhaps from someone well-known, perhaps from someone unknown.
What I find more important is not that one email, but the reaction to
that email. A general attitude to still be respectful and if you notice
some unacceptable behaviour, try to go for a solution which dampens it
instead of further aggravating (sending private emails, saying you're
getting the impression it seems to get personal, etc).
Give some ability for the other person to say oh, I didn't mean it /
sorry.

Regarding special things for members:
I don't always read every email in every thread, or at the same time.
But although I do have the special password to take a technical solution
and maybe in this thread I gave the impression that well-knowns can do
anything they want and anyone else has 0 leeway. I try to be more
detail

I usually consider:
 - is this person generally like this in their contributions /
   conversations
 - are they brand new
 - how to best dampen it (private email, public email, moderation bit,
   unsubscribe, ban)

In this specific case:
I noticed Emanuelle apologized for the tone being interpreted as
attacking by the time I read the thread, so I consider it over. Didn't
see the same for the other email, and didn't recognize the name at all,
high chance for things getting out of hand.


Note: this already is getting way offtopic (not about gtk
development)... so I don't want to go into it too much further on this
mailing list.

It will take some time to move things over, but at least it shows

Existing git repositories can stay.

 Moving gtk.org would also require moving gimp.org and maintaining that as
 well.  It would involve not only the website but also FTP, mail, DNS, etc.
  It is a package deal.  And I'd probably have to keep root access in the
 process... would the GNOME sysadmin team want another sysadmin?

FTP: We use ftp.gnome.org which is a mirror. I'd suggest using that.
mail: postfix and so on; we do not have a nice UI for 'gimp.org', only
something for 'gnome.org'. gimp.org would be separate, probably using
Puppet (pretty easy)
website: we have stuff in place to automatically update websites from a
git repository. Most is on RHEL6, which has PHP 5.3.
DNS+whois: easy, we've moved loads of domains to the same whois register
and into our DNS server.

Note: GNOME infrastructure uses RHEL (except for a bit of
Ubuntu,Debian,Fedora). We're still getting a few new servers in to
replace the existing ones. But manual packages + working outside of
'Puppet' is frowned upon.

As to if we want another sysadmin: send an email to
gnome-sysad...@gnome.org.. always a team decision.

Why do you want to keep root access btw? Just wondering what you
normally use it for.

  Does anyone have information about the political reasons as to why it was

 We should probably only talk about 10+ year old history like that over beer.

 It's now on Sourceforge because when Richard decided with his partner

 anyone to take over *any* of the components; he had some hope that one
 or more of his former Imendio employees who were still involved with
 Gtk+ would take over maintaining the Gtk+ parts. I quickly discovered
 that it would take some time and a lot of work to get a project
 started at Gnome.org. It took a week at Sourceforge, and only that
 long because I did a hostile takeover of a moribund project that was a
 fork of Gtk 1 whose name I wanted.

If you want a Git account so you can commit to Gtk+, it should be pretty
easy. Three steps basically:
1. For the person requesting it: follow http://live.gnome.org/NewAccounts
2. A gtk+ maintainer: approving the Git account
3. Accounts team: setting it up

This can all be done very quickly.

If for some reason there is a delay in above process, feel free to
send me a message.


If you think it is better to have other resources (mailing list), just
file a bug at Bugzilla, for details see
http://live.gnome.org/NewListRequest. Best to get started with the Git
account first.

Above and other infrastructure procedures are documented at:
http://live.gnome.org/Infrastructure


Note that I don't see a Gtk+ OSX backend as any different from Gtk+. IMO
you could use a branch in gtk+ or commit directly. However, I'm not a
maintainer, talk to them.


If you need anything Bugzilla related, file a bug in the
bugzilla.gnome.org product. Need permissions? Contact Bugsquad.

Up to the maintainers to decide on this.

Library uses tarballs. When you do a install-module, library.gnome.org
updates after a while (5 min cron delay). Might not always take the
latest version though (uses the r-t modulesets IIRC, something like
micro being ok, but won't take newer major.. ask frepd if you want

 I agree, but we should definitely list older versions.

No, I mean that it doesn't show e.g. 2.12. Don't mind about older

 I prefer Library, since they are libraries.

Shouldn't Library be used for the collection of API docs? IMO gtk+ has
e.g. an API reference. The combination of all that stuff could be called
a library.

 No, it isn't supported any longer.

But documentation.html says 'Although we recommend the GTK2 platform, we
keep the GTK 1.2 Documentation around for those who need it.', so I
expect API docs. Maybe reword previous sentence? Perhaps mention it is
included in the 1.2 tarball?

 Hmm, wasn't sure about this, since it is more GNOME language bindings.
 I can add it though.

Hi,

It seems that the GTK 1.2 documentation has been deprecated from your
site. This is a bit of a problem for those of us that are still having
to use it.

It would be extremely handy to have an archive section, maybe of
tarballs of old documentation if not the live documentation.

Probably known but in case not (from gnome-sysadmin POV): GTK does most

slight relation is the SVN repository for the website and its

2007-08-14 Thread Olav Vitters
GTK+ is the main user of the developer API reference with links from:
  http://www.gtk.org/api/

I want to redirect:
  http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/
to:
  http://library.gnome.org/developer/

See for instance the GTK+ API reference on:
  http://library.gnome.org/developers/gtk/2.11/

Note: GNOME Library currently finds new tarballs every night. At one
point this will start after install-module runs (low priority right
now).

If nobody objects within a week I'll make this change.
