So we can all work on it? 19:11:35 <doktor5000> marja: and at least one file, iirc 19:11:37 <marja> well, and I imported more than I see on the list 19:12:16 <obgr_seneca> #action all look at Special pages for missing pages and missing templates and try to fix it 19:12:16 <marja> where did the other links go? 19:12:32 <obgr_seneca> doktor5000: you did clean the categories iirc? 19:12:47 <obgr_seneca> marja: I don't know... 19:12:48 <doktor5000> obgr_seneca: yep 19:12:53 <marja> no.... there is a large empty space 19:13:05 <obgr_seneca> humpf 19:13:14 <marja> the links are still there, further down on that page :) 19:13:46 <JohnR> Looking at what's coming down via wget there are huge numbers of missing links on mdv side :-( 19:14:22 <obgr_seneca> yeah, that wiki was never really cared for :/ 19:15:15 <obgr_seneca> #action all: on importing pages please add Template:Draft and Template:MdvImport 19:15:26 <obgr_seneca> The latter for license reasons 19:16:16 <marja> is there a way to avoid that our wiki becomes as messy as the Mdv one? 19:16:43 <JohnR> marja: only constant vigilance :-) 19:16:47 <obgr_seneca> yep, me (and perhaps other) watching the missing links and missing templates pages like a hawk 19:17:23 <obgr_seneca> and coming down on any criminal like some dev does when doing wrong things into svn :D 19:17:30 <marja> lol 19:17:33 <JohnR> lol 19:18:02 <obgr_seneca> The bad news is: ennael didn't want to give me the matches. She said, she might need them for me ;) 19:18:15 <marja> I have the impression, some pages exist in two or three different copies in the Mdv wiki 19:18:38 <obgr_seneca> marja: iirc, that's not totally wrong :/ 19:18:58 <marja> obgr_seneca: come live here, plenty of whater to quench the fire :) 19:19:01 <JohnR> marja: yes, looks that way here too 19:19:03 <marja> water 19:19:34 * obgr_seneca is a member of the auxilliary fire brigade so I may have a chance :) 19:19:51 <marja> obgr_seneca: didn't know that, good! 19:19:59 <obgr_seneca> anything else on importing stuff? 19:20:04 <doktor5000> one big question: how to add multi-language support for a given page? is there some template for that? some german users asked for the german part of the wiki 19:20:28 <obgr_seneca> doktor5000: Until now, there's only one instance 19:20:50 <obgr_seneca> but it should be done like it is in Mdv wiki, when the other wikis are coming on line 19:21:28 <obgr_seneca> We will have a multi lingual setup like it is done at Mdv (or wikipedia,...) 19:21:49 * marja removes all the links to wikipages in other languages atm, because we'll probably do it in a different way than Mdv wiki 19:22:11 <obgr_seneca> But different from those wikis, I'd like to try and keep them in sync mostly 19:22:39 <obgr_seneca> In i18n there was some discussion about a translation extension to the wiki 19:23:10 <obgr_seneca> But that would have prevented from having local pages e.g. for local events, that wouldn't make sense in other languages 19:23:19 <obgr_seneca> So we decided against it 19:23:38 <marja> obgr_seneca: maybe it is wrong to start from the english Mdv wiki... aren't most pages better in the French Mdv wiki? 19:24:10 <obgr_seneca> marja: Yes but only a minority of our people at doc are speaking french... 19:24:39 <marja> that is true 19:24:43 <obgr_seneca> so we would neet a lot of french people translating pages from french to english first 19:25:02 <obgr_seneca> next topic 19:25:03 <obgr_seneca> ? 19:26:11 <obgr_seneca> #topic calenco stuff 19:26:17 <marja> I now see I already imported a draklive page 19:26:28 <marja> from mdv 19:26:36 <obgr_seneca> #undo 19:26:36 <Inigo_Montoya> Removing item from minutes: <MeetBot.items.Topic object at 0x85264cc> 19:26:47 <obgr_seneca> marja: ok, I'll have a look 19:26:49 <marja> sorry...

I'm frustrated that the maintainers of davfs haven't responded to my bug report too 19:29:12 <obgr_seneca> so it is a general problem with davfs? 19:29:28 <obgr_seneca> Not only our package but upstream as well? 19:30:07 <JohnR> I'm able to use Calenco with the professional version of xxe, but despite assurances, it won't work with personal version 19:30:14 <obgr_seneca> ok 19:30:41 <JohnR> I downloaded and compiled davfs2 source, works fine 19:31:08 <obgr_seneca> so it is a problem with the Mga package? 19:31:19 <marja> we don't have a maintainer for it 19:31:23 <JohnR> I don't have the skills to fix mga1 davfs though 19:31:35 <JohnR> obgr_seneca: yes 19:31:44 <obgr_seneca> ok, it#s unmaintained... 19:31:50 <obgr_seneca> doktor5000: any free time? 19:32:19 <doktor5000> we'll was already thinking about it, i'll see with my mentor what can be done 19:32:34 <JohnR> the problem is that there appears to cross-links in executables 19:32:45 <obgr_seneca> #action doktor5000 look into davfs2 package, if no time, tell obgr_seneca 19:33:12 <obgr_seneca> #topic other 19:33:21 <JohnR> back please 19:33:31 <marja> #undo 19:33:31 <Inigo_Montoya> Removing item from minutes: <MeetBot.items.Topic object at 0x85937ec> 19:33:40 <obgr_seneca> (me is only having his smart phone for internet connection right now, so I'm in a hurry) 19:33:49 <obgr_seneca> JohnR: but ok :D 19:34:07 <marja> JohnR: what did you want to say? 19:34:20 <JohnR> I cannot suggest we all get prof version of xxe, but it (Calenco) can be used from web interface by downloading, editing, and uploading 19:34:48 <JohnR> ob, ok next then :-)( 19:35:22 <obgr_seneca> #action all: if mga package can't be fixed, calenco can be used by downloading diles, working on them and uploading again 19:35:26 <obgr_seneca> #undo 19:35:26 <Inigo_Montoya> Removing item from minutes: <MeetBot.items.Action object at 0x8526e2c> 19:35:38 <obgr_seneca> #info if mga package can't be fixed, calenco can be used by downloading diles, working on them and uploading again 19:35:39 <doktor5000> JohnR: from looking at the package, maybe just adding your user to davfs2 group (with the mga1 version of davfs2) would help? 19:35:57 <JohnR> doktor5000: no, that's not enough 19:36:08 <obgr_seneca> doktor5000: I tried that already 19:36:19 <obgr_seneca> #topic other 19:36:24 <obgr_seneca> anything else? 19:36:39 <marja> not for me 19:36:46 <JohnR> nor me 19:37:18 <obgr_seneca> ok, I'll be online tommorow in the office again, so call me if there's anything 19:37:21 <obgr_seneca> #endmeeting
