Set by moderator on 21 January 2009.
00:54 p6eval joined, viklund joined, moritz_ joined 09:11 moritz_ joined 09:17 masak joined
viklund masak: some of the tests for the mediawiki-markup is failing (07 and 08) is that unimplemented? 09:20
italics in links and such 09:21
masak viklund: my memory fails me somewhat, but yes, I think it's unimplemented.
viklund: I might get around to that soon as well. but first I'll investigate the &mdash; failure moritz_++ reported 09:23
things really happened in the last week. 09:24
November made a leap forward.
moritz_ aye 09:25
when I click "Edit", I get a "Not logged in" page - but no log in link
masak moritz_: neener neener :P
moritz_ ah, it's at the very top right 09:26
masak moritz_: yes :/
moritz_ it would be nice to repeate the link in the body though
masak moritz_: indeed.
moritz_: want an account?
moritz_ masak: aze
erm, aye
masak German keyboard
moritz_ keyboard switching, yes
I have an US keyboard at $university, and a German at home 09:27
masak viklund: I don't suppose I can give moritz_ an account, can I?
moritz_: I'm strictly on a US keyboard layout diet these days. 09:28
even though most keyboards I use are physically Swedish.
oh!
we don't handle &mdash; :)
fixing
viklund masak: no, but I can 09:30
moritz_ masak: I also considered that, but writing umlauts on a US keyboard is a pain, and I write too many articles where I have to get the Umlauts right
masak moritz_: on an unrelated note, I'm using Emacs LEIM, and I've never been happier. umlauts are just the start of it. 09:31
but ISTR you're a vim user, no?
moritz_ right
masak at least you have Ctrl+K, then.
moritz_ but Ctrl+K a : is still much more effort than Ƥ :-) 09:32
masak yes, I've noticed. 09:33
but for me it's worth it (for the few occasions I do write Swedish or other characters in vim) 09:34
I like having all the other characters in the right places
viklund masak: you should do something to make the different links stand out somehow in the toolbar once logged in, now it looks like a continous text. 09:35
masak Matt-W on #perl6 just found another markup unfeature
viklund: prave.
suggestions welcome.
I haven't thought about that much.
viklund the simplest thing is of course putting pipes between them, maybe have som highliting on mouse-over... 09:36
masak which toolbar are we talking about, btw?
the top right one?
pipes are ok, I guess. 09:37
(but a bit tricky to get right)
highlighting, definitely.
viklund moritz_: you can now login to november-wiki.org, I sent username and password via mail 09:38
moritz_ my gmail mail?
viklund (yes I know, not very secure, otoh we are vulnerable to dictionary attacks and all kinds of other nasty things)
moritz_: um, no. 09:39
moritz_ which one, then?
I have too many of them, it seems
viklund moritz@casella.verplant.org was the one that showed up in my to-field
moritz_ ok, thanks
Login successful 09:40
viklund++ thanks
viklund great
the README is now updated as well 09:41
we should have a more formal way of deploying the wiki
masak preferably a script.
viklund yep 09:42
masak a configure script, even.
viklund wonders when Alva will wake up
masak she sleeping like a baby again? :)
viklund masak: otherwise there's no point really
yes, since 9:15...
masak ok, fixed the &mdash; thing. committing. 10:05
done. 10:07
viklund: I think I can make lists work fairly soon. 10:09
viklund masak: great!
masak the general functionality is not easy, but just making '*' work is fairly straightforward.
viklund masak: &msash; now works on server ;) 10:10
masak ;)
viklund++
viklund masak: what is the general functionality? 10:11
masak '*#*:' and stuff like that
nested lists of different kinds.
viklund ahh, nesting 10:12
masak but we don't need that right now.
viklund masak: do you remember that warning about "Param TAGS is is a Array"? 10:33
alva woke up...
masak viklund: I remember the warning. I remember that we didn't really know why it occurred.
viklund its even stranger, it only shows up when using the new skin... 10:34
and that shoudn't affect that, I think 10:35
masak curiouser and curiouser.
my priorities right now are: 10:36
1. unordered lists
2. caching
viklund anyway, I've written some tests for the wiki, I'll commit them now and then maybe I can look into that later
masak 3. page history
viklund: aye
good.
viklund we haven't had any tests for running the entire wiki before
now we have ;)
editing is missing tests of course... 10:37
moritz_ you could always use WWW::Mechanize::Test if you're not too concerned about having tests written in perl 5
but then you'd also need a webserver for testing... maybe that's overkill
masak I think it'd be a good idea to make a 'microkernel' out of the wiki itself. 10:38
so that basic viewing/editing functionality can be tested without any bulky things like servers being involved.
viklund now it's pushed. I'll be afk for a while now, playing with Alva. (She stood up by herself for the first time yesterday) 10:39
masak \\o/ 10:40

/\\
due to bash.org/?4281, I'll leave it at that. 11:06
lunch & 12:01
