18:05:02 <obgr_seneca> I welcome all of you to our meeting tonight
18:05:18 <marja> thx
18:05:35 <obgr_seneca> I have very little to discuss today
18:05:52 <obgr_seneca> But some work for those who like to play arround with mediawiki...
18:06:31 <marja> I'd love to, if I manage ;)
18:06:38 <obgr_seneca> I have installed a test instance here: http://www.mandrivauser.de/mga-testwiki
18:07:02 <obgr_seneca> I can give you logins to it, if you like
18:07:10 <marja> yes please
18:09:03 <obgr_seneca> ok
18:09:48 <obgr_seneca> What I have been doing till now is trying to create a front page for the wiki
18:10:06 <obgr_seneca> http://www.mandrivauser.de/mga-testwiki/index.php/Main_Page_Obgr
18:10:18 <obgr_seneca> It isn't much till now, though...
18:10:51 <marja> nice :)
18:10:52 <obgr_seneca> About the design: that is the skin artwork has chosen
18:11:23 <obgr_seneca> They will modify it a bit and change the colour palette so it is in sync with the rest of Mageia
18:11:36 <marja> my first impression is, that it gives a good overview
18:11:58 <obgr_seneca> trish and I were talking about it today
18:12:36 <obgr_seneca> We would like to have a rather clean front page
18:12:57 <obgr_seneca> Without the need to scroll endlessly down like it is on some other distribution wikis
18:13:04 <marja> :)
18:13:47 <obgr_seneca> of course artwork has to do its magic on it
18:13:50 <obgr_seneca> ok?
18:13:53 <MrsB> Hi. Im here but cooking
18:14:08 <marja> I think you made the right decision, the frontpage looks good
18:14:19 <marja> it is the opposite of confusing
18:14:42 <obgr_seneca> thanks
18:14:48 <marja> yw
18:15:13 <obgr_seneca> It will become more confusing on its own over time so let's start with a clean one :D
18:15:18 <MrsB> 1st thoughts on the design are the text is rather large. apart from that it looks great
18:15:19 <marja> lol
18:15:35 <marja> hi MrsB, welcome
18:15:39 <obgr_seneca> MrsB: I was just fooling arround with the css
18:15:45 <MrsB> hiya
18:15:59 <obgr_seneca> I let the artwork magicians do their duty
18:16:13 <MrsB> yes, looks good though
18:16:45 <marja> MrsB: did you get to try the html > mediawiki converter?
18:17:13 <MrsB> i had a look but its just a perl library by the looks of it
18:17:23 <MrsB> i wasnt sure what to do with it
18:18:08 <JohnR> MrsB: Slow simmer with occasional stir?? :-)
18:18:09 <marja> I was hoping we could use it to easily convert the source of our pages to mediawiki format
18:18:26 <marja> JohnR: lol
18:18:36 <MrsB> JohnR: your speciality ;)
18:18:44 <JohnR> hehe
18:18:47 <obgr_seneca> we were looking for dokuwiki mediawiki converters for some time
18:19:04 <obgr_seneca> but it seams it's only done in the other direction
18:19:15 <marja> :(
18:19:30 <marja> grinz
18:19:36 <nmichalo> Are we planning to switch to mediawiki?
18:19:43 <obgr_seneca> yes
18:19:44 <MrsB> it looks like it should do docuwiki
18:19:54 <obgr_seneca> dokuwiki doesn't scale for larger installations
18:21:27 <MrsB> i still havent had much chance to play with it, qa is snowed under at the minute
18:21:42 <marja> MrsB: like any team
18:22:09 <MrsB> yes, its got busy all of a sudden hasnt it
18:22:16 <obgr_seneca> yep, we need more people...
18:22:42 <MrsB> the wiki will no doubt help that, that and mga2 when it lands
18:23:27 * obgr_seneca hopes so
18:23:39 <Skiper> Hello
18:23:39 <obgr_seneca> Skiper: you have done much on the Mandriva wiki
18:23:49 <MrsB> hi Skiper
18:23:52 <marja> Skiper: hi
18:24:00 <obgr_seneca> Could you do some work on my test instance?
18:24:01 <Skiper> Hello everyone. Sorry for my latenes.
18:24:04 <obgr_seneca> And hi Thomas!
18:24:46 <Skiper> obgr_seneca : I would like to. However my spare time is limited this week. My next week is empty so if I have a link, I will certainly work on it. :)
18:27:24 <obgr_seneca> If everyone who likes to play a bit would create a page so we have something we can work on...
18:27:42 <marja> OK
18:28:15 <marja> can I use #agreed?
18:28:35 <marja> apparently ;)
18:29:12 <obgr_seneca> #agreed everyone who plays arround with the wiki test installation will create a page so we have some things to discuss
18:30:16 <obgr_seneca> ok
18:30:25 <obgr_seneca> To be honest: that's all from my side
18:30:32 <JohnR> #link     http://www.mandrivauser.de/mga-testwiki
18:30:42 <Skiper> The theme is simple, but looks pretty clean and polished.
18:31:16 <marja> next week's meeting same time?
18:31:51 <JohnR> I suggest anyone who generates a page places a ling on the main page
18:32:06 <JohnR> s/linq/link
18:32:09 <obgr_seneca> Yes and if possible a mail to the ml
18:32:40 <obgr_seneca> #action anyone who needs a test account for playing arround with the wiki, send a mail to obgr_seneca
18:33:07 <obgr_seneca> #action anybody creating an example page, link it on the main page and send a mail to the ml
18:35:59 <obgr_seneca> And yes
18:36:08 <obgr_seneca> #info next week meeting at the same time
18:36:11 <obgr_seneca> ok?
18:36:20 <JohnR> ok here
18:36:24 <MrsB> yep
18:36:31 <marja> OK
18:36:34 <obgr_seneca> does anyone have connections to mlo?
18:37:02 <marja> I don't, what is mlo?
18:37:10 <Skiper> MandrivaLinux-Online?
18:37:15 <marja> thx
18:37:17 <obgr_seneca> yes
18:37:21 * MrsB was hoping someone would ask that
18:37:43 <Skiper> Hmm, I know people there. But I cannot say I was active recently.
18:38:00 <Skiper> What has to be done with MLO?
18:38:04 <obgr_seneca> Akien told me, they already have some documentation
18:38:24 <obgr_seneca> And I would appreciate it if they contributed it to our wiki directly, once it's online
18:39:06 <Skiper> I will ask them for this, pleading for a centralized doc for all languages rather than splitted ones.
18:39:22 <obgr_seneca> yes, but wait till ours is online
18:39:25 <Skiper> I'm confident that they will contribute to it.
18:39:34 <obgr_seneca> I will keep pushing that
18:39:39 <Skiper> obgr_seneca: Yes, no worries. :)
18:40:44 <obgr_seneca> ok, questions?
18:40:58 <JohnR> no here
18:41:16 <obgr_seneca> ok
18:41:20 <obgr_seneca> #endmeeting
