[09:54:27 EST(-0500)] <michelled> is the wiki down?
[09:58:46 EST(-0500)] <anastasiac> checking...
[09:59:05 EST(-0500)] <anastasiac> seems fine to me
[09:59:43 EST(-0500)] <anastasiac> and aren't you supposed to be on vacation?

[10:46:25 EST(-0500)] <clown> everyone: I'm reading about jQuery and tracking mouse positions, and I found this: http://docs.jquery.com/Tutorials:Mouse_Position. It may be relevant to FLUID-10 (scrolling the active item full into view). This tutorial tells you how to get document coordinates.
[10:48:35 EST(-0500)] <jhung> looking at it now.
[10:51:25 EST(-0500)] <jhung> Here is a jQuery plugin that loads images once they've scrolled into view to help improve performance and load times. We can take a look at the source and see how they detect the edges of the document window. http://www.appelsiini.net/2007/9/lazy-load-images-jquery-plugin
[10:57:04 EST(-0500)] <jhung> Here's another plugin that programatically scrolls a window. (the Scroll-To plugin)
[10:57:05 EST(-0500)] <jhung> http://flesler.blogspot.com/2007/10/jqueryscrollto.html
[10:59:55 EST(-0500)] <clown> I'm having problems loading the demo page for the lazy loader.
[11:00:13 EST(-0500)] <jhung> lemme see
[11:01:21 EST(-0500)] <jhung> yeah. same here.
[11:02:18 EST(-0500)] <jhung> loaded. takes a while.
[11:02:34 EST(-0500)] <jhung> took 54s according to ySlow
[11:03:55 EST(-0500)] <jhung> didn't quite work. all images loaded without a 5 s delay.
[11:06:02 EST(-0500)] <clown> I'm back to studying the original tutorial to see what mouse positions can be got...
[11:06:23 EST(-0500)] <jhung> ok.
[11:27:01 EST(-0500)] * colinclark (n=colin@142.150.154.101) has joined #fluid-work
[11:38:32 EST(-0500)] <colinclark> clown and michelled: Do either of you have uncommitted code hanging around at the moment?
[11:38:49 EST(-0500)] <colinclark> I just got in, having thought I had sent the announcement regarding our SVN restructuring today, and realized it didn't send.
[11:38:50 EST(-0500)] <michelled> not me - I got mine in yesterday
[11:38:54 EST(-0500)] <colinclark> So this is somewhat last-minute.
[11:39:23 EST(-0500)] <clown> nope. all my stuff is highly experimental, don't worry about it.
[11:40:14 EST(-0500)] <colinclark> Great.
[11:40:34 EST(-0500)] <colinclark> I'm feeling like a dork for not sending this out. Will do it now, but jhung and I are pretty much ready to go.
[11:41:12 EST(-0500)] <michelled> Doesn't seem to be an issue now that we all hang out here. Restructure away!
[11:41:57 EST(-0500)] <clown> antranig doesn't hang around here. should he know?
[11:42:22 EST(-0500)] <michelled> true. And Eli too.
[11:43:18 EST(-0500)] <colinclark> Bosmon knows about our plans, but I'm also sending a note to fluid-work.
[11:43:23 EST(-0500)] <colinclark> Eli is home sick.
[11:47:04 EST(-0500)] <jhung> stand-up
[13:18:21 EST(-0500)] <colinclark> clown: one of these days-maybe after you've had a chance to chat with David and Simon-I will introduce you to slightlyoff here and you can get to know him a bit before you embark on the Dojo work.
[13:58:58 EST(-0500)] <clown> colinclark: yeah, one of these days.
[13:59:22 EST(-0500)] <colinclark> Cool.
[13:59:35 EST(-0500)] <colinclark> He's nice and enthusiastic about Fluid, so expect he'll be happy to hear you'll be getting involved.
[14:08:15 EST(-0500)] <clown> I wonder if he remembers me as that weirdo who kept asking the question about ARIA and tabindex at WWDC?
[14:27:51 EST(-0500)] <colinclark> clown:
[14:29:27 EST(-0500)] <clown> the one session where I didn't ask the question was the dojo session. that's the one where an apple engineer asked it. alex was one of the presenters at that one.
