[00:42:21] greetings. [00:49:53] howdy. been crawling through bugs, [01:06:34] jorm: yeah, thanks for that [01:06:48] there are lots of them. it's slow going. [01:06:56] but i'm taking a lot of them that fall into "design". [01:07:18] yeah, I saw [02:03:11] jorm, about? [02:05:08] si. [02:05:29] quick pm [02:05:38] sure. [02:47:02] *Ashlee gives jorm a hug. [02:47:35] what was that for? [02:48:00] also, dude: i'm not dissembling who suggested what because i'm trying to hide anything. i'm doing it to avoid people trolling them. [02:48:28] the thanks button was a STRONGLY requested feature from many people. but they wanted a "like" button and i felt that the semantics of that had been co-opted by facebook. [02:48:59] A "like" button might have legitimacy. [02:49:09] Nobody goes around on a wiki saying "thanks." [02:49:11] It just isn't done. [02:49:16] "like" has a very specific meaning and we wanted something more flexible. at the same time, we wanted something that evoked a "positive" feeling, since a large part of the focus of LQT is the "Community Health" thing. [02:49:26] except for barnstars, or cookies, or even sunflowers. [02:49:45] Right. [02:49:48] But those aren't replies. [02:50:09] clicking the "thanks" button isn't a reply, either. [02:50:22] I don't actually know your background, but are you familiar with Wikimedia (MediaWiki) feature bastardization? [02:50:35] okay. i'm totally happy to talk more about this with you - because i think that i can convince you that it's a good idea - but my lady is demanding that we walk out the door. [02:50:45] Oh, go! [02:50:48] I'll be here. :-) [02:51:01] i am pretty easy to find out about. i'm on facebook as jormosaurusrex; twitter as jorm; my domain is www.gaijin.com [02:51:58] Our interpersonal connection would suffer if I just stalked you. [02:52:09] Or something. [02:52:21] i have been stalked by the goons at somethingawful.com. i can handle it. [02:54:52] When you return, we can discuss the evilness of the LATER resolution in Bugzilla. [02:55:16] Though I may wait until tomorrow to talk to you about this, because it's certainly not office hours currently! [05:10:14] well that was interesting [05:10:44] just got off the phone with MS Research who want to contribute an extension [05:11:36] never thought I'd be taking a call from an MS employee who wanted to learn how to contribute to a GPL project [17:26:40] hi people [17:27:44] howdy howdy [17:34:37] wow. that site is MESSED UP, ryan. [17:34:53] it looks like debug is turned on and it's breaking everything. [17:35:10] lol [17:35:20] it wasn't me :) [17:37:05] RoanKattouw_away: ... You alive? [17:47:57] so glad i don't have to deal with people like this anymore: http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news/view/103367-Zynga-Seems-More-Sinister-Than-You-Might-Expect [17:49:53] TrevorParscal: BAck [17:49:59] hi [17:50:13] I'm working on ResourceLoader - what are you doing? [17:52:56] Just finished dinner, now at my dad's for the weekend [17:53:14] Gonna sift through my wikibugs and mw-cvs backlog, over 2k messages [17:53:26] If you need me to do something that's fine too [17:54:19] something broke on the article assessment prototype site but i don't know what. [17:55:26] RoanKattouw: I might ask for your help on some stuff - but for now, you're all good [17:55:34] OK [17:55:38] Will also submit my invoice [17:55:43] jorm: I'll look at that real quick [17:56:33] that would be great! [17:56:46] *RoanKattouw yells "run update.php" at whoever updated that wiki [17:56:53] *RoanKattouw proceeds to run update.php himself [18:00:59] jorm: Fixed with a simple php maintenance/update.php [18:25:31] thanks, man! [19:37:16] OK, this should go in the MediaWiki hall of shame -> http://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/mediawiki/trunk/phase3/includes/Skin.php?view=markup#l749 [19:40:28] Oh God [20:08:07] RoanKattouw: what should we do about entrire style-sheets that should not be flipped? [20:08:25] You implemented shouldFlip(), right? [20:08:34] that's per module [20:08:36] Or do you want this on the stylesheet level as opposed to the module level now? [20:08:38] Right [20:09:02] I'm looking at common.css and common_rtl.css [20:09:03] It's trivial to hack support for /* @noflipfile */ into CSSJanus.php [20:09:16] They should be merged, ideally (later) [20:09:20] yes [20:09:44] so, yeah, having a noflip for the whole file would be great [20:10:41] seems like the common_rtl.css sheet can just die [20:11:18] it's not even used by monobook [20:11:23] lol [20:11:25] hmm [20:11:32] Is it even used anywhere? [20:11:37] old old skins [20:11:40] I'm going to leave it alone [20:11:49] add a comment to it that is should die with the old skins [20:11:52] in fire [20:18:02] ok, ResourceLoaderSiteModule has CSS support [20:18:47] Nice [21:14:22] ah, crap. all my friends who went to burning man have sobered up and are now writing blog posts about it. [21:53:00] RoanKattouw: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=25124 [21:53:07] What are your thoughts [21:53:08] ? [21:53:35] It has skins hardcoded where exactly? [21:53:43] Resources.php [21:53:58] Oh [21:54:02] Sigh [21:54:07] I'm not sure $wgStyleDirectory even works [21:54:08] stuff in resources is all hardcoded too [21:54:15] Nor that it's a desirable 'feature' [21:54:20] right [21:54:28] I say $wgStyleDirectory burns in hell [21:54:36] I will see what's using it [21:55:07] bawolff: we're talking about https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=25124 [21:55:15] which was reported by you [21:55:33] we're leaning towards removing $wgStyleDirectory [21:55:42] It was actually a user whining about it on #mediawiki that caused me to report it [21:55:53] Right [21:56:38] Hm on second thought, I do see the argument [21:56:38] it's used a few places, but it seems like it's not being used in many others [21:56:44] $wgStylePath used to be honored [21:56:48] And RL kills that too [21:57:02] By pulling all JS+CSS from skins/ unconditionally [21:57:22] personally it seems like a recipe for bugs, since I can't imagine too many people use weird file layouts to test it [21:57:41] Yeah the reason $wgStylePath exists is so people can customize it to fit their URL schema\ [21:57:51] FS access usually isn't the problem [21:58:32] My "verdict": let's keep it the way it is now and burn any vars that make skins/ configurable because that makes just about as much sense as making includes/db/ configurable [21:58:37] Now I need sleep [21:59:03] lies [22:00:27] hmm [22:00:33] OutputPage still uses $wgStylePath [22:00:50] which goes to skins/ right by default of course [22:01:24] brb
