Re: [Elementary-dev-community] Dvelopment of existing elementary projects
Hi, you usually do this to get the trunk code into the current directory: $ bzr branch lp:gala Make your changes and test them, then a simple $ bzr commit -m "I fixed a bug or something like this" to commit everything locally $ bzr push lp:~teemperor/gala/bug-fix-that-was-really-important and this to push it to a branch inside the gala project. Note that the branch gets created automatically. Also, the ~teemperor part of the URL refers to your username. So if your lp username is "django", you would push to $ bzr push lp:~teemperor/gala/bug-fix-that-was-really-important The "gala" in the url is the project name (lp:gala -> /gala/). The last bit (bug-fix-that-was-really-important) is just a unique name that you give to your new branch. Now you can find that branch on the code subsection of the launchpad side (for example here https://code.launchpad.net/gala ). Then click on your branch and click "Propose to merge". This is a helpful tutorial for handling bzr: http://doc.bazaar.canonical.com/beta/en/mini-tutorial/index.html We have another guide that describes this workflow in more detail, but I can't find it at the moment.

Re: [Elementary-dev-community] Fwd: Google+
Hangouts on the top-right for chatting with people in real-time. It's IIRC not using Jabber or any open protocol, so you have to stick with the official google-apps or that webinterface. G+ is otherwise just using Circles (=Collection of People) for everything. A community is a Circle where everyone can join when he wants and there are private cicles for you where you can put people into. If you send any message you can specify which circles are able to read that message (as in Family, WeirdoPeople, Xyz) and everyone that is in one of those Circles sees it. There is a elementary-community that is a good start. - Raphael 2014-03-26 17:47 GMT+01:00 Sergey Shnatsel Davidoff ser...@elementaryos.org: Okay, where can I find an intro to 2014?

Re: [Elementary-dev-community] Fwd: Google+
I agree with Cassidy: Hangouts makes it easier to catch people like Dan and get a quick reply. The IRC-memo-system was just a humongous and ugly hack that didn't worked out. It's a good (but not perfect) thing between writing a actual mail and dropping a message to IRC. The mailing-list itself is also quite horrible: You have to join Launchpad, work around those annoying anti-spam measures, join the LP group and the navigation in the Archive has a horrible interface and needs a few minutes to update itself. G+ provides at least a half-way working way of seeing replies (well, it depends on having all replies in a list instead of a tree / needs to execute JS to view plain-text / also closed source). I'm still looking forward the elementary.io-service that allows to use Jabber (is that still planned?) - Raphael 2014-03-26 21:13 GMT+01:00 Cassidy James cass...@elementaryos.org: Sergey, That isn't to say that we're not using IRC or the ML anymore, but if you're wondering why they are much quieter, now you know. So if you're not following the elementary community on G+, you should definitely do that. And if you have email notifications turned off for launchpad, you should create some mail filters instead. Also, there are sections within the community; use them. Dan isn't saying we're moving 100% of communication and interaction to Google+, he's saying we've naturally started using it more and at the same time have gotten more efficient with Launchpad. It happens that most developers are on Google+ already, so it has become an easy way to get in contact with them.

[Elementary-dev-community] Porting to Debian as GSoC project
Hey guys/girls, there is a chance that Debian is doing the porting-work of the apps/shell as a GSoC project: https://wiki.debian.org/SummerOfCode2014/ProjectProposals/PackageElementarySoftware I talked to the nice folks in #debian-soc and it seems that the we need to fix (at least) two problems to make this idea a possible candidate for their SoC: * The idea needs an mentor, which should be a Debian-Developer. So if you are a DD or you know someone who is a DD and wants to help us, then feel free to reply :) * The ported packages also need debian-maintainers. I think some volunteers from our maintainers and some people from the community can do that. Feel free to share your opinion on the topic.

I wonder if we can get someone with a Debian system to try installing Pantheon and see what issues they encounter Packaging Pantheon isn't the big problem as far as I can see (from my experience in packaging it for Gentoo Linux). The main problem with pantheon is it's dependency on some Ubuntu specific patches for Gnome libraries. For example, the user-specific background feature of the pantheon-greeter depends on a patched version of accountsservice and gnome-settings-daemon to work (these are the hard parts to figure out). For this reason I'm now also trying to maintain these Gnome packages with Ubuntu patches in my repository. Furthermore the dependency of Gnome (and core components like gnome-settings-daemon) on systemd causes some issues (media-keys not working proberly, logoff/shutdown/reboot not working, etc.). So aside from being able to install Pantheon on debian, I see most issues in the system integration and the full user experience (including installer etc.) as the main problem.

Re: [Elementary-dev-community] The elementary documentation weekend!
Yeah, even more customization guides are not worth the ink, but people could collect the already existing ones together (so, posting them on the gdoc and make sure that the author is using the CC-BY) and maybe we can make one structured document out of it. to the HIG: Maybe pics of good and bad interfaces (but nothing that makes people cringe).

However, our OS-specific patches repository did not get ARM enablement, and it's unlikely to get it anytime soon because we patched some really heavyweight things like Qt, which take way more time to build than Canonical's armhf enablement conditions require. This means we can't make OS images for ARM, but you can still install the apps on an existing Ubuntu installation. You'll miss out on the leaner and faster core, which is a pity (and doubly so on a resource-constrained system), but at least there's a chance of finding an OS image that works for your ARM hardware in case of Ubuntu and almost no chance for any other distro. Enthusiasts can still build ARM images by themselves if they have the hardware to run the build process or if they know their way around QEMU chroots (along the lines of https://wiki.debian.org/ArmHardFloatChrootand https://wiki.debian.org/QemuUserEmulation but for Ubuntu). They'd have to use something like apt-build to update to later versions of our patched packages, but such updates will probably be rare and all in all it should work. -- Sergey Shnatsel Davidoff OS architect @ elementary -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~elementary-dev-community Post to : elementary-dev-community@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~elementary-dev-community More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~elementary-dev-community Post to : elementary-dev-community@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~elementary-dev-community More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
Re: [Elementary-dev-community] Luna +1's Name and Some Other Stuff
Isis is AFAIK used by some people as a synonym for Transpluto, so a purely hypothetical part of the space-and-stuff-people-group is also happy with that name. You guys/girls understand? Purely hypothetical. Hehe... So yes, i applaud for Isis and my great pun. 2013/8/16 Avi Romanoff a...@elementaryos.org As I've said before, +1 for Isis :) I can just hear the multitudes saying WHAT???

That is freaking killer. We're getting rave reviews and (despite bug #1 being closed) we keep hearing from tons of people that are first-time Linux users coming from Windows and Mac OS. If you haven't been in contact with this positive energy yet, I encourage you to hit up youtube for an ego boost. Now down to business! I'm writing to announce the codename of the next elementary release: Wanking Wallaby Jk. What is this, Ubuntu? I'm leaning strongly towards Isis for this one. It's short (2 syllables), should be generally pretty easy to pronounce, etc. Isis is the egyptian mother god of the throne, friend of slaves, sinners, artisans, and the downtrodden. You can read up more about her here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isis Munchor says I should go full Hitler and not allow any arguments, but if you think the name totally sucks you can definitely say that. If not, let's go with it! (And even if so, we'll probably still go with it!) Also, I think in general most of us think it would be the best idea to release Isis (see, I'm already going with it) as closely as possible to Ubuntu 14.04. We have a lot to prove about our ability to provide updates in a timely manner and we're getting some negative feedback from developers/nerds about our 12.04 base. So let's address that and make sure that elementary is the best open platform for both users and developers (and I guess nerds too). Cody is currently working on updating Congrego to spit out some super bleeding edge Saucy-based builds. If any of you are already on Saucy, you know how broken Pantheon currently is. Indicators and Plugs are huge problems that we need to address. We're considering moving both of these into lib peas plugins for Wingpanel and Switchboard (respectively). Any feedback on that plan is very welcome. In general, the first priority for Isis is going to be updating all of our apps to compile/run with the latest libraries. You should know that Midori with the latest webkitGTK is amazing. I'm working on porting eGtk and it's going pretty swell. You should also know that all the fancy libaccounts stuff is now available for someone to start playing with so we can get sweet online integration. I believe that Clutter with the touch-related bits is also available so that is also very exciting for those of use that have a multi-touch trackpad available. Anyways, let's get rolling on this cycle. We have 8 months to become even more awesome.

Re: [Elementary-dev-community] The future of appcenter
@Goncalo Margalho, calm down. There is no decision made at the moment or anything like that. I also don't think that Strobl wanted to nuke your part of the discussion with a i'll make some proof-of-concept-code. If we have code to talk about, we just have a better foundation for a discussion, don't mind him. Before you go crazy here with that stuff, you should first answer that: What do you guys want from AppCenter? A user opens it and then he sees the newest/hottest/whatever apps with some infos (my guess)? Define what exactly is your target when proposing a radical change to a project (So far no one has answered shnatsel's question about the problem you see in the current AppCenter). Someone want a webpage instead of AppCenter (if i read that correctly)? Why? You should first answer that before going into technical details. 2013/3/26 Chris Timberlake gam...@gmail.com The first decision needs to be What is AppCenter? Is it going to be an App Store or is it going to be just an App Center as it is now? That decision changes the course of the project forever. An AppStore is a huge undertaking that should be planned now. On Tue, Mar 26, 2013 at 5:51 AM, Joshua Strobl truthfroml...@gmail.comwrote: As I said, these decisions need to be a group consensus.

For instance, with Ubuntu Reviews API, we (along with everyone else) has read-only access, therefore we are not able to apply our own ratings and reviews (obviously a write process). This is already going to be covered in the API, I'll be pushing out code by the end of the week (hopefully) that will handle a portion of this. The general idea is to either completely pull all the reviews / ratings from Ubuntu, pretty much regarding every application (although I'd prefer we only limit to applications that are actually popular) and store them in our own database. This will ensure that any breaking changes that occur in Ubuntu's Reviews API do not affect AppCenter, since the reviews are stored with us anyways. Another idea would be to continue pulling reviews / ratings from Ubuntu's Reviews API and only store reviews / ratings by elementary OS users. It is really up to group consensus. This isn't so much about rewriting things, its more like leveraging existing APIs to get a good jumpstart on an AppCenter. I would appreciate if you'd follow https://bugs.launchpad.net/appcenter/+bug/1091406, as I'll be posting details, potentially initial JSON formatted string files (for showing how some of the data will be structured when being requested via an HTTP Request) and at some point I'll link to the repo for the API. - Joshua Strobl On Tue, Mar 26, 2013 at 3:29 AM, Goncalo Margalho g...@margalho.info wrote: So we are going to rewrite it?

No, it's not. PackageKit API does not provide application screenshots, for example. They're fetched on-demand from http://screenshots.ubuntu.com/ or http://screenshots.debian.org/(they're the same website anyway). As for paid apps, there's a staggering number of possibilities. Ideally we'd use something distribution- and vendor-independent, and I have a few ideas on how to achieve that. But IMO it's too early to discuss implementing paid apps yet.
