Re: [Elementary-dev-community] Granite Licenseing
Well I'd start with answering thishttps://answers.launchpad.net/granite/+question/218277question and then going through the files and making sure the headers are all LGPL(and check with the autors of the ones which are not, to be really sure), as well as changing the COPYING File which right now is still GPL.

Re: [Elementary-dev-community] We are drowning in bugs. Web Team, halp!!1
Hey Cody, I'm not really sure what you want to see on such a page, but I don't think searching for bugs will be easy to do quickly, however we can create a page linking to the different Launchpad pages and do a little guide on how to properly bug report maybe? This would certainly take some of the problems. Also doesn't Launchpad itself search for similar bug reports anymore? On Sat, Nov 17, 2012 at 3:52 AM, Cody Garver c...@elementaryos.org wrote: One of the new issues we have experienced since the start of the beta is, in addition to a large number of legitimate bug reports, we are getting a large number of duplicate bug reports. A possible solution to alleviate the flood is to slap up a Testers section on the website. I think it makes sense since we already target a specific audience, Developers, so why not target the larger mass as well? We need to make it easy and obvious for users to search for their issues before they report them, and then direct users to start in the Testers/Testing section before filing bugs. -- Cody Garver -- 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 -- http://elementaryos.org/*Fabian Thoma* | *Council Member* elementary OS fab...@elementaryos.org / elementaryos.org -- 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] Facebook Fogger app out of the box
Hey, so there are a few things that speak against doing such a thing: A Fogger App is no native App, but just a website, that makes it non native, not following the system theming and every design tweaks(like in that post) are destined to fail at some point. Also some people(including me) might not like the fact that Facebook is installed and might get paranoid and rage about it. If elementary would ever do such a thing as including a social network app it would be native, fast and following out HIG. And finally Luna is in feature freeze since ages ago, so nothing, especially something that goes against our guidelines, should go into Luna anymore.

For those who don't know what I'm talking about, refer to this article: http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2012/07/fogger-can-turn-facebook-into-an-integrated-desktop-app-on-ubuntu I've used it, and it works rather well, actually. The killer feature for me would be the desktop notifications and the badges (which work fine with Plank). But that's not the reason I'm suggesting this. IMHO including Facebook as a first-class app (in that Plank and Slingshot handle it as one) would be a very good idea because let's face it, regardless of your personal opinion about Facebook, the target audience of elementary will use Facebook, and it will be pretty important to the user. When booting Luna for the first time, seeing the Facebook logo on the dock will give the user a feeling of familiarity and an impression of immediate usefulness. The main point here is that we should use the recognizable logo to our advantage to make the user feel that this platform will suit their needs. And of course a handy one-click access to Facebook with desktop notifications is good in it's own right :) Thoughts? -- 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 -- http://elementaryos.org/*Fabian Thoma* | *Council Member* elementary OS fab...@elementaryos.org / elementaryos.org -- 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] Keep the elementaryos.org updated
Hey Mensur, as a member of the web team I can tell you that we indeed are working on a big refresh of the website, which unfortunately takes most of our time away from fixing things on the current site. I personally haven't touched it in months, but you are right and I'll put the standard banner back when I get home ;) And Cassidy who is the guy doing most of our journal articles just got to university and has a lot less time than he used to have, so help in that area is always appreciated, just send a email to pr...@elementaryos.org if you wanna help out. Am 14.09.2012 09:26 schrieb ttosttos Sa ttost...@gmail.com: Couldn't agree more. There have been gaps of up to a month between journal postings, plus the answers section seems a bit slow at times (despite the large number of registered users). Some things that could be explored (in no particular order): 1. Push new web page. I know it's been under development for a long time. I expect it to improve on social/collaboration options beyond today's page. Ultimately, user participation would be key to distribute content generation. 2. Encourage more regular journal postings (~1/week?). Easiest would be to build a pipeline of postings and dish them out with a more frequent cadence. 3. Widen the scope of journal postings. For instance, including how-to, tips etc. If one looks at omgubuntu, there is a good number of different types of postings. 4. For Luna+1, elementary should consider releases with a narrower scope, so they can happen more frequently. For a project that is still nascent in many aspects, having an 18+ gap between releases doesn't help drive the image of a project that is dynamic and healthy. ttosttos -- On Thu, Sep 13, 2012 at 11:13 PM, Mensur Zahirovic linuxsaj...@gmail.comwrote: Hi guys, I think the elementaryos.org should be updated more frequently.

Re: [Elementary-dev-community] OEM Installation mode
Hey Alex, I'm not 100% sure but as we use the same installer as Ubuntu does this might actually already work without us knowing, it would be great if you could test such an installation out on one of our recent daily builds(which you can find here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/elementaryos/files/unstable/) Thanks for pointing us in this direction, have a nice day ;) On Thu, Aug 16, 2012 at 7:37 AM, Alejandro Morales Lepe aml24...@gmail.comwrote: Hello Team!

[Elementary-dev-community] Automatic Branch Merging
Hey guys, Yesterday I finally got tarmac to work, so our loved RabbitBot will now merge all of the approved branches in Launchpad that have a commit message set. So no more manual merging pushing, all done every 15 minutes automatically. I got all Pantheon branches set up and will add the main branches of other projects in the next few hours, if you want stuff merged, RabbitBot(~rabbitbot-a) needs to have access to the bzr branches and Launchpad Project management, it currently is part of ~elementary-core so the most app branches should be accessible by it, if not, add him to your team. If you need automatic merging for special branches send a email to me ;) -- Fabian Thoma | Council Member elementary OS fab...@elementaryos.org / elementaryos.org -- 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
