[08:22:41 CDT(-0500)] <jhung> justin_o: didn't make it into the office. (tongue) So FYI, I'm just about done the training material. Just need to format a little and then I can pass it to you.

[08:23:48 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> jhung: cool thanks.. i'm still fixing up my part before i can hand the markup over to you.. it's a bit more involved than I thought since I'll have to make everything initialize asynchronously

[08:28:36 CDT(-0500)] <jhung> justin_o: ah okay. Let me know if you need a hand.

[08:29:38 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> jhung: thanks

[08:46:55 CDT(-0500)] <jessm> http://www.openculture.com/2009/08/helen_keller_captured_on_video.html

[08:46:58 CDT(-0500)] <jessm> innovation folks

[08:47:03 CDT(-0500)] <jessm> it changes lives

[09:00:37 CDT(-0500)] <jhung> @jameswy: Check this out. http://www.dangersoffracking.com/

[09:04:23 CDT(-0500)] <jameswy> jhung: Cool, thanks! I'll try not to frack.

[09:06:16 CDT(-0500)] <jhung> jameswy: glad to hear it. (smile)

[09:07:51 CDT(-0500)] <jhung> jameswy: also a good example of parallax we were talking about yesterday. (smile)

[09:17:13 CDT(-0500)] <jameswy> Haha, I figured that's why you linked it, jhung.

[09:19:50 CDT(-0500)] <jhung> jameswy: actually no. I didn't pay much attention to the parallax until my 2nd pass through the site. I was more interested in seeing the "story" as I went further down.

[09:22:15 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> yura: have you ever come across this error in chrome before, when fetching resources "Origin null is not allowed by Access-Controll-Allow-Origin"

[09:22:31 CDT(-0500)] <yura> hmm

[09:23:00 CDT(-0500)] <yura> is it a same origin policy

[09:23:01 CDT(-0500)] <yura> ?

[09:24:59 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> yura: i don't think so.. i set the flag --allow-file-access

[09:25:17 CDT(-0500)] <yura> that's not good enough i think

[09:25:21 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> ;(

[09:25:26 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> what else is needed?

[09:25:36 CDT(-0500)] <yura> you need --disable-web-security

[09:25:40 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> It used to work.. although i did reload my system, so i could have changed

[09:32:38 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> yura: tried again, but same problem

[09:32:45 CDT(-0500)] <yura> hmm

[09:32:56 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> (sad)

[09:33:08 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> yura: i think it's because i didn't close the other instance of chrome

[09:33:30 CDT(-0500)] <yura> could be

[09:35:18 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> yura: I had typed in the wrong flag.. it was supposed to be this one --allow-file-access-from-files ⊗

[09:35:30 CDT(-0500)] <jhung> justin_o: I'm done with the wiki docs. I'm pulling in your changes into my repo now...

[09:36:19 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> yura: I've put it up on the wiki now http://wiki.fluidproject.org/display/fluid/Browser+settings+to+support+local+Ajax+calls

[09:36:54 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> jhung: thanks.. still trying to add in some more template loading to reduce the amount of markup used in the exporter.html page

[09:37:34 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> jhung: i did already remove one level of containment for the exportType component and fixed the location of the final <script> tag

[09:38:41 CDT(-0500)] <jhung> justin_o: I'll be working on styling. So as long as the "ds-" classes aren't renamed or removed I'll be okay. I'll be sure to update the classnames to match the new names when you're done. Does that work for you?

[09:39:46 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> jhung: yep, sounds godo

[09:39:47 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> good

[09:44:18 CDT(-0500)] <am33sh> hi guys

[09:46:32 CDT(-0500)] <am33sh> I was wondering if someone could give me a little more info about the ePub reader project for GSoC

[09:58:00 CDT(-0500)] <yura> am33sh: sure, what did you want to know

[09:58:01 CDT(-0500)] <yura> ?

[09:59:09 CDT(-0500)] <am33sh> sir i have understood the customizable part

[09:59:37 CDT(-0500)] <am33sh> can you tell me more about the editing?

[10:01:15 CDT(-0500)] <yura> am33sh: yes, so the intension is that the user of the reader could modify the epub document. For instance add annotations

[10:01:43 CDT(-0500)] <yura> am33sh: i believe epub specification supports that

[10:02:05 CDT(-0500)] <yura> am33sh: also, I would look into the ability to modify the actual document itself

[10:02:24 CDT(-0500)] <am33sh> okay

[10:03:08 CDT(-0500)] <am33sh> yura : which could be done by the user reading the book

[10:03:35 CDT(-0500)] <yura> am33sh: i believe so

[10:04:26 CDT(-0500)] <am33sh> yura : the editing part done by the user should be for that specific user or for all others users also

[10:06:05 CDT(-0500)] <yura> am33sh: well you should think of a am33sh as a component that deals with some epub document (sort of like a widget) so i dont think it's readers responsibility to differentiate the users

[10:06:55 CDT(-0500)] <yura> am33sh: it's responsibilities would be to display the document, be adjustable to user preferences, enabling editing by the user

[10:07:35 CDT(-0500)] <am33sh> okay sir

[10:08:03 CDT(-0500)] <yura> am33sh: feel free to define the scope of functionality yourself as part of the proposal

[10:09:20 CDT(-0500)] <am33sh> yura : sure

[10:21:20 CDT(-0500)] <am33sh> yura : do i have to include some sample UI in the proposal or it should have only the description about the project

[10:21:59 CDT(-0500)] <yura> am33sh: if you'd like yes

[10:31:43 CDT(-0500)] <am33sh> yura : do i have to work on infusion framework

[10:32:40 CDT(-0500)] <yura> am33sh: preferably yes, it provides a good framework to structure your component similarly to ones in jquery UI

[10:33:59 CDT(-0500)] <am33sh> yura : so i sholud start understanding it

[10:34:35 CDT(-0500)] <yura> am33sh: yes that would be helpful: I suggest looking into documentation at wiki.fluidproject.org

[10:34:55 CDT(-0500)] <am33sh> yura : okay

[10:40:47 CDT(-0500)] <am33sh> yura : so i should start understanding the code of the rePublish or any other open source ePub reader

[10:50:49 CDT(-0500)] <yura> am33sh: I dont think i m that familiar with many epub related open source projects. I think you should probably spend some time evaluating what's available right now (e.g. + and -) and pick something that has the best fit.

[10:54:08 CDT(-0500)] <am33sh> yura : okay sir i will first evaluate various ePub readers available

[11:05:24 CDT(-0500)] <boyan> colinclark, yura: are you joining the Cloud4all architecture meeting on connect (smile)

[11:06:50 CDT(-0500)] <yura> boyan: ill be there shortly, i believe colinclark too

[11:07:00 CDT(-0500)] <am33sh> yura : i will do the research on it and will tell you any progress made

[11:07:51 CDT(-0500)] <am33sh> yura : bye

[11:08:09 CDT(-0500)] <yura> am33sh: yes, let me know yes

[11:08:41 CDT(-0500)] <colinclark> on my way, boyan

[12:43:47 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> cindyli: johnny has finished making the changes we suggested for his fluid studios pull request.. i guess we should take another look at it and see if it's ready to go in now

[12:44:14 CDT(-0500)] <cindyli> ok, Justin_o

[12:44:49 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> cindyli: thanks

[12:44:56 CDT(-0500)] <cindyli> np

[14:17:53 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> michelled: can you look over what I added to the github tips and tricks page http://wiki.fluidproject.org/display/fluid/Github+Tips+and+Tricks
