[06:49] <dholbach> good morning
[08:16] <bkerensa> jono: your up epic late
[08:16] <bkerensa> :D
[09:46] <czajkowski> aloha
[14:40] <dholbach> hey jono
[14:49] <jono> hey dholbach
[15:00] <jono> dholbach, mhall119 https://plus.google.com/hangouts/_/2ed89a9717d7379f4cf0fe375d464c07c6e3afd1?authuser=0&hl=en-US
[15:18] <czajkowski> dholbach: is dmp around this week ?

[15:19] <czajkowski> dholbach: grand thanks

[17:31] <dholbach> alright my friends - see you tomorrow!
[19:20] <nhandler> I know a lot of you guys have played around with webcasts and screencasts and other similar things. Has anyone here played with webcamstudio at all?
[19:21] <mhall119> nhandler: no, what's that?
[19:22] <nhandler> mhall119: You can set up various input and ouptut sources. So I can have one input from my webcam, another showing my desktop, another showing a youtube video, some text on top, an irc channel, etc. It can then output to ustream, a file, or many other places
[19:22] <nhandler> I couldn't get the prebuilt beta .deb files to work properly for me in Debian sid, but the alpha worked pretty well (other than the audio being a bit shaky probably due to me using my built in mic)
[19:23] <nhandler> I was thinking that it might be nice being able to show your face, your screen, and an irc channel (i.e. #ubuntu-classroom-chat) and record to a file while streaming live
[19:25] <nhandler> The demo videos on the site are a bit outdated (it seems they change the interface/feature set a LOT between new releases), but it shows some of the features
[19:36] <mhall119> nhandler: sounds interesting, I wonder how that would interact with an on-air G+ hangout
[20:01] <nhandler> mhall119: In theory, it could replace it. It provides the same functionality plus more. Or, depending on what you are after, you could probably include the G+ hangout as an input source.
[20:06] <bkerensa> nhandler: webcamstudio is cool... I was going to use it to do a weekly show once
[20:06]  * popey shudders
[20:06] <bkerensa> :D
[20:06] <popey> mhall119, is it possible to install lenses in /opt, and unity find them?
[20:08] <nhandler> popey: Bad experience with it?
[20:08] <popey> not really, but i put one in /usr/local and it wasnt found
[20:08] <popey> asked didier and he implied they aren't found outside /usr/
[20:08] <popey> which means shipping lenses in via the ARB is hard
[20:08] <popey> because they mandate that stuff lives in /opt
[20:09] <nhandler> err, by "it" I meant webcamstudio. Sorry for the confusion
[20:09] <popey> oh
[20:09] <popey> never found it particularly intuitive
[20:09] <popey> and java
[20:10] <nhandler> Yeah. I have had a hard time getting it to work properly. Older versions complained about a module not loading properly. The newer one works, but is alpha and doesn't appear to have a lot of the old features
[20:14] <mhall119> popey: you have to install the .lens file into /usr/share/unity/lenses/<lensname>/<lensname>.lens
[20:15] <mhall119> and the .service file into /usr/share/dbus-1/services/
[20:15] <popey> well that sucks
[20:15] <mhall119> everything else goes into /top/
[20:15] <mhall119> /opt/
[20:15] <popey> that means i can't enter the app developer competition
[20:15] <mhall119> popey: the ARB has an exception explicitly to allow lenses to do this
[20:15] <popey> O RLY?
[20:15] <mhall119> yes
[20:15] <popey> \o/
[20:15]  * popey retracts his statements
[20:15] <popey>  /clear
[20:15] <mhall119> so everything else goes into /opt/, and they'll let those 2 files go where they need to go
[20:17] <popey> thanks mhall119

=== imbrando1 is now known as imbrandon
[20:41] <jono> mhall119, just doing this API docs mockups
[20:41] <jono> should have something online soon
[20:41] <jono> mhall119, could you add to your spec how we would get the GI data into the django db?
[20:43] <imbrandon> jono /me wants to use the json api from mhall119 to create a block for people to show their trophies off on their blog easily :)
[20:44] <jono> imbrandon, we are building a Web service that will allow people to do that
[20:44] <jono> so imbrandon if you can help write this, that would be *awesome*
[20:44] <imbrandon> nice, i seen the webservice but not that bit
[20:45] <imbrandon> and sure just point me in the direction and i'll dig in when i have time ( tween now and monday )
[21:02] <jono> imbrandon, cool, could you join #ubuntu-accomplishments if you are not there?
[21:02] <imbrandon> sure /me looks
[21:07] <jono> mhall119, around?
=== iDLEoNE is now known as IdleOne
[21:23] <jono> mhall119, added the mockups to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DeveloperNetwork#preview

[21:56] <mhall119> jono: had to run some errands, I'll be home in about an hour
[21:57] <jono> np
[21:58] <cjohnston> unacceptable
[22:39] <popey> mhall119, http://developer.ubuntu.com/2012/04/how-to-create-a-wikipedia-unity-lens-for-ubuntu/ has anyone tested that recently?
[22:39] <popey> I just went through it and I get no results (on quantal) when searching in the lens
[22:39] <popey> WARN  2012-06-28 23:38:16 unity.glib.dbusproxy GLibDBusProxy.cpp:283 Calling method "Search" on object path: "/unity/singlet/lens/wikipedia" failed: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name unity.singlet.lens.wikipedia was not provided by any .service files
[22:40] <popey> loads of those too
[22:50] <mhall119> popey: it was working for several people on Precise
[22:50] <popey> heh
[22:50] <popey> might have to test it on a precise install.. ta
[22:50] <mhall119> popey: do you have a .service file for it installed in /usr/share/dbus-1/services?
[22:51] <popey> doesnt look like it
[22:51] <popey> sudo quickly install should have done that?
[22:53] <popey> going to sleep on it and try tomorrow
[22:53] <popey> thanks
[23:18] <mhall119> jono: I like those mockups, what do you use to make them?
[23:27] <nhandler> mhall119: Last time I asked, he said he uses Balsamiq (they are pretty supportive of people using it for open source work)
