So $795 since yesterday! We should update the ruler regularly as long as the pace is up. (This money plus the rest of March.) Lucas, should I send new numbers to you? Anyone with a git account can update the ruler data. Here's a quick guide: 1. Fetch gnomeweb-wml module from GNOME git 2. Go to the directory www.gnome.org/friends/ruler 3. Update the 'update-ruler' script with the latest data (should be obvious) 4. Run 'update-ruler ruler.js' 5. Build website and make sure ruler looks ok 6. Commit and push the new ruler.js to git repo --lucasr On Tue, Mar 23, 2010 at 7:31 AM, Frederic Peters fpet...@gnome.org wrote: On 03/23/2010 08:49 AM, Frederic Peters wrote: I couldn't get it to fill the whole width, as it conflicted with the sidebar which is position: absolute; but here it is in place: http://library.gnome.org/misc/release-notes/2.28/ That page is broken for me now (Firefox 3.5.8 on Fedora 12).

Re: Friends of GNOME Ruler
Hi, 2010/3/23 Stormy Peters sto...@gnome.org: FYI, since this has gone live we've gotten 10 donations for a total of $775 plus 2 new subscribers for an immediate donation of $20. So $795 since yesterday! We should update the ruler regularly as long as the pace is up. (This money plus the rest of March.) Lucas, should I send new numbers to you? Forgot to say: yes, you can send the new numbers to me :-) --lucasr On Tue, Mar 23, 2010 at 7:31 AM, Frederic Peters fpet...@gnome.org wrote: On 03/23/2010 08:49 AM, Frederic Peters wrote: I couldn't get it to fill the whole width, as it conflicted with the sidebar which is position: absolute; but here it is in place: http://library.gnome.org/misc/release-notes/2.28/ That page is broken for me now (Firefox 3.5.8 on Fedora 12).

Re: Friends of GNOME Ruler
Hi all, The ruler is now online in www.gnome.org and (soon) planet.gnome.org. It also appears in www.gnome.org/friends. Unfortunately, I didn't have time to implement the ability to hide the ruler as suggest by Olav. I think it would be a nice addition in case someone has time to do it.
