[09:47:36 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> Justin_o, colinclark: checked in a fairly large feature/bug fix last night for Uploader (FLUID-1811)... will definitely need some code review
[09:47:49 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> elicochran: You're up early!
[09:47:49 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> also forgot to delint and check in my tests
[09:47:54 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> I'll do this later
[09:47:58 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> I was up late
[09:48:12 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> well, the family has to get up

[09:48:20 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> also have to vote today
[09:48:31 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> maybe I'll lint it quick
[09:48:37 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> need to look at the tests again

[09:49:12 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> realizing that our FileQueueView tests aren't really right... should be more event driven
[09:49:45 EDT(-0400)] <Justin_o> elicochran: thanks for commit and update... i'm having trouble accessing the server version of the uploader
[09:50:03 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> Justin_o: what is happening?
[09:50:12 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> I'll look
[09:50:29 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> yick
[09:50:34 EDT(-0400)] <Justin_o> elicochran: in FF3 I get a "Page failed to load error"
[09:50:39 EDT(-0400)] <Justin_o> guess you can see it
[09:51:02 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> Justin_o: looks like the server is down
[09:51:43 EDT(-0400)] <Justin_o> (sad)
[09:51:57 EDT(-0400)] <Justin_o> I'll try to talk to anastasiac about it
[09:52:02 EDT(-0400)] <jamon> which server is that?
[09:52:50 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> Justin_o: I'm trying a rebuild now, just in case it is a hiccup
[09:52:57 EDT(-0400)] <Justin_o> colinclark: do you know which server the server version of the uploader is on?
[09:53:02 EDT(-0400)] <Justin_o> elicochran: thanks
[09:53:19 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> Justin_o: Which server?
[09:53:32 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> Ah, I see.
[09:53:48 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> jamon: It runs on titan.atrc.utoronto.ca a.k.a build.fluidproject.org
[09:54:21 EDT(-0400)] <jamon> ah got it, nakul hasn't shown me around that one yet
[09:54:46 EDT(-0400)] <anastasiac> jamon, colinclark, Justin_o, elicochran: It was a continuum build error
[09:54:48 EDT(-0400)] <anastasiac> it's running now
[09:54:57 EDT(-0400)] <anastasiac> someone restarted it through continuum
[09:54:58 EDT(-0400)] <anastasiac> ?
[09:55:20 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> anastasiac: I just did, moments ago
[09:55:23 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> see above
[09:56:05 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> To be clear, when elicochran said "it looks like the server is down," he meant "it looks like the image gallery app is down."
[09:56:10 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> No panic necessary. (tongue)
[09:56:35 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> sorry, technically Jetty is a server
[09:56:59 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> running at port 8080
[09:57:16 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> (tongue)
[09:57:31 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> Check out the elicochran, the jetty expert!
[09:59:40 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> Justin_o: imagegallery is back up, but not completely happy
[10:00:11 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> minor stuff as far as I can tell... one image not loading for the swf
[10:00:14 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> funny
[10:00:17 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> works on my build
[10:00:24 EDT(-0400)] <Justin_o> elicochran: i see
[10:00:24 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> I'll look at it later
[10:00:42 EDT(-0400)] <Justin_o> I think we've seen this before, can't remember if it fixed itself or if you did something
[10:01:25 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> the only reason why I'm worried about it is that I did upgrade to the latest SWFUpload and it is a little pickier about pathing than it was before
[10:01:38 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> Justin_o, colinclark: ^
[10:02:13 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> colinclark: are you available for a code review later in the day?
[10:02:30 EDT(-0400)] <Justin_o> oh okay... interesting... I guess I'll check back in with you guys a bit later today if it is still a problem
[10:02:40 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> I'm taking a look at your commit now, elicochran. I'm going to be pretty scarce today...
[10:02:48 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> Today's the day we announce Infusion 1.0 to the world.
[10:02:55 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> colinclark: ah, cool
[10:03:08 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> But I'll take a look now.
[10:03:09 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> need me to do anything for that
[10:03:12 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> ?
[10:03:18 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> So far so good.
[10:03:19 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> colinclark: has lint
[10:04:02 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> colinclark: noticed something odd in the degrade code this morning (last night)
[10:04:12 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> we have a that.degraded and a var degraded
[10:04:43 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> is that a typo or am I missing something
[10:04:48 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> ?
[10:05:21 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> Are you thinking of this, elicochran?
[10:05:24 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> var isDegraded = false;
[10:05:24 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> that.isDegraded = function () {
[10:05:31 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> isDegraded?
[10:05:49 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> A pastebin will be clearer, one sec.
[10:06:20 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> Justin_o: would you add FLUID-1811 to bug parade so I can check in my delinting and tests?
[10:06:54 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> elicochran: http://www.pastie.org/482777
[10:06:59 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> colinclark: don't worry about it, you're right
[10:07:00 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> Are you talking about this code?
[10:07:04 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> I figured it out
[10:07:05 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> yes
[10:07:18 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> isDegraded... the "is" was throwing me off
[10:07:52 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> that and the fact that the var degraded is not part of the that but is private
[10:07:54 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> all good
[10:08:30 EDT(-0400)] <Justin_o> elicochran: sure... I'll add on 1811
[10:08:59 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> I have to jump in a shower and feed the family in a moment so I'll see everyone later... colinclark: if there are any problems with 1811, would add a comment to the JIRA and I'll look at it when I get in
[10:09:46 EDT(-0400)] <Justin_o> elicochran, colinclark: 1811 is on the bug parade
[10:10:49 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> Justin_o: thank you, I live by your command
[10:11:01 EDT(-0400)] <Justin_o> :
[10:11:05 EDT(-0400)] <Justin_o> (smile)
[10:11:11 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> Justin_o: sorry, that was supposed to be a "king" reference, but came out kinky
[10:11:35 EDT(-0400)] <Justin_o> lol don't worry I got it
[10:11:36 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> (wink)
[10:14:22 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> Justin_o: I'm looking forward to FLUID-2720 later today... looks interesting and I haven't played with IE8 yet
[10:14:45 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran> bye for now... folks, see you online in an hour or so

[11:23:59 EDT(-0400)] <heidi> but again, no big rush

[13:14:14 EDT(-0400)] <athena> i wanted to ask a couple questions about things that have come up on the uportal list lately that are reorderer-related
[13:14:40 EDT(-0400)] <athena> first being whether it's possible to configurably turn off dragging previews for some elements
[13:14:57 EDT(-0400)] <athena> like if you know it's likely to have a huge amount of complicated content
[13:20:06 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> athena: It should be quite possible.
[13:20:19 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> Dragging previews, meaning the avatar that shows up under your cursor when you pick something up?
[13:20:20 EDT(-0400)] <athena> awesome
[13:20:24 EDT(-0400)] <athena> yeah
[13:20:37 EDT(-0400)] <athena> so say you have a java applet in a portlet, maybe we have a way to not show the avatar
[13:20:38 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> Yeah, it's definitely configurable...
[13:20:43 EDT(-0400)] <athena> since it's likely to cause the user pain and suffering
[13:20:45 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> but probably not declaratively yet.
[13:20:47 EDT(-0400)] <athena> on a per-portlet basis?
[13:20:48 EDT(-0400)] <athena> ah
[13:20:49 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> Yeah, that would be awful.
[13:20:55 EDT(-0400)] <athena> yeah
[13:21:00 EDT(-0400)] <athena> some users are having problems w/ that right now
[13:21:13 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> So the idea would be actually to not show full-fledged avatars for certain portlets?
[13:21:20 EDT(-0400)] <athena> right
[13:21:32 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> Aha, I see.
[13:22:06 EDT(-0400)] <athena> maybe i give the portlet an additional classname or something that indicates that it's a mean portlet
[13:22:10 EDT(-0400)] <athena> or something like that
[13:22:32 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> It's not possible in Infusion 1.0 or 1.1.
[13:22:49 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> But it's something we could conceivably add, or something that you could add.
[13:23:05 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> Let me take a look at the code briefly, but there is essentially a configurable avatar creator.
[13:23:21 EDT(-0400)] <athena> interesting, thanks!
[13:23:22 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> It could probably be extended to do different things based on context.
[13:23:52 EDT(-0400)] <athena> the other issue that came up on the list was that someone's having trouble selecting text in reorderable portlets in IE7, though i haven't had time to confirm that yet
[13:23:56 EDT(-0400)] <athena> yeah that sounds reasonable
[13:25:13 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> Hmm, the IE7 issue sounds interesting. Justin_o, does that ring any bells?
[13:25:57 EDT(-0400)] <athena> if you guys haven't seen that i can take a look and make sure i can reproduce it
[13:26:03 EDT(-0400)] * athena hates having to fire up parallels
[13:34:22 EDT(-0400)] <jsilvaa> athena: try virtualbox http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads
[13:35:07 EDT(-0400)] <athena> interesting
[13:35:20 EDT(-0400)] <athena> would that be a faster way to do things like test IE behavior?
[13:35:58 EDT(-0400)] <athena> do i have to install windows in it?
[13:38:33 EDT(-0400)] * alisonbenjamin (n=alisonbe@user129-86.wireless.utoronto.ca) has joined #fluid-work
[13:40:57 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> athena: My guess is it would be exactly the same... It's just an open source alternative. You still need windows to test IE. (sad)
[13:41:04 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> jsilvaa: Or did you have something else in mind?
[13:41:14 EDT(-0400)] <athena> ok, that's what i suspected
[13:41:19 EDT(-0400)] <athena> i do like parallels and it works well
[13:41:38 EDT(-0400)] <athena> it just really irritates me to have to start up a whole VM just to test something simple
[13:41:51 EDT(-0400)] * athena waves fiery branches in IE's general direction
[13:42:23 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> lol
[13:42:25 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> Yeah, I have the same feeling.
[13:42:29 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> I use VMWare Fusion and I like it a lot.
[13:42:48 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> But, especially with Eclipse and Firefox running, it's a lot of load on my machine.
[13:42:50 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> RAM and CPU.
[13:43:04 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> athena: So I just looked briefly at the code for the Reorderer...
[13:43:19 EDT(-0400)] <athena> yeah, exactly - i've bounced back and forth between fusion and parallels myself
[13:43:40 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> If you take a look at Reorderer.js: https://source.fluidproject.org/svn/fluid/infusion/trunk/src/webapp/components/reorderer/js/Reorderer.js
[13:43:55 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> The first function in there is the implementation of the defaultAvatarCreator...
[13:43:58 EDT(-0400)] <athena> ah, yes!
[13:44:02 EDT(-0400)] <athena> so maybe implement a new one?
[13:44:02 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> So you can see the contract for these things.
[13:44:13 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> You could implement a new one that wraps the default...
[13:44:16 EDT(-0400)] <athena> yeah
[13:44:19 EDT(-0400)] <jsilvaa> athena, colinclark: nothing in particular... just throwing out the suggestion for the OS alternative... jamon has told me parallels is pretty greedy taking code from OS and not giving back, but he can explain best
[13:44:21 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> You seem to get the item itself as the first argument.
[13:44:36 EDT(-0400)] <athena> thanks jsilvaa (smile) i'll have to check it out
[13:44:44 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> So you should be able to take a look for your extra "don't make this an awesome avatar" CSS class and do something simpler...
[13:44:47 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> otherwise delegate to the default.
[13:44:58 EDT(-0400)] <athena> yeah, that sounds like a great idea
[13:44:59 EDT(-0400)] <athena> thanks!
[13:45:03 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> But there's one problem.
[13:45:04 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> (tongue)
[13:45:05 EDT(-0400)] <athena> i'll have to make a uportal ticket for it
[13:45:07 EDT(-0400)] <athena> uhoh
[13:45:16 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> The defaultAvatarCreator is completely private... this was evil of us.
[13:45:33 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> It should really be hanging somewhere visible... fluid.reorderer.defaultAvatarCreator or something.
[13:45:37 EDT(-0400)] <athena> ah, gotcha
[13:45:40 EDT(-0400)] <athena> yeah that makes sense
[13:45:55 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> So, if I read the code correctly, you can't get a reference to the default to be able to wrap it or augment it in any way.
[13:45:56 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> That's a bug.
[13:46:13 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> Do you need this in the 1.1 timeframe, or further down the road?
[13:46:23 EDT(-0400)] <athena> unclear
[13:46:29 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> We're into bug parade for 1.1, so we could ask Justin_o to add it to the list if it's critical.
[13:46:37 EDT(-0400)] <athena> i think it's not
[13:46:44 EDT(-0400)] <athena> since we're not close to a 3.2 release
[13:46:45 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> 1.2 will probably be out in July (my guess), so we could do it for then, alternatively.
[13:46:57 EDT(-0400)] <athena> and i don't think we're going to upgrade fluid for 3.1
[13:47:08 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> I'm flexible... I'm sure, if it's a problem for implementors, we can fast track it.
[13:47:21 EDT(-0400)] <athena> for 3.1, would we be able to just copy that logic? i know that's kind of icky
[13:48:57 EDT(-0400)] * anastasiac (n=stasia@142.150.154.189) has joined #fluid-work
[13:50:14 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> athena: That's a possibility.
[13:50:19 EDT(-0400)] <athena> ok
[13:50:20 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> I thought of another workaround.
[13:50:22 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> Sort of hacky.
[13:50:33 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> The Reorderer does present this thing publicly...
[13:50:42 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> So every component exposes their options as a member variable.
[13:51:00 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> so myReorderer.options is an object full of all the configured options for the component.
[13:51:18 EDT(-0400)] <athena> right
[13:51:22 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> So, as long as the default options are in place, myReorderer.options.avatarCreator will be the default avatar creator.
[13:51:31 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> So you could do something slightly underhanded.
[13:51:36 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> 1. Create the reorderer.
[13:51:39 EDT(-0400)] <athena> lol
[13:51:46 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> 2. Grab a reference to the default avatarCreator
[13:51:53 EDT(-0400)] <athena> that might be even meaner than copying code (smile) but yeah, i can see how that would work
[13:51:54 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> 3. Replace it with a function that does your own thing, or delegates to it.
[13:51:56 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> (smile)
[13:52:06 EDT(-0400)] <athena> i'll try some stuff out
[13:52:13 EDT(-0400)] <athena> and i think july would be fine for this feature to be available
[13:52:16 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> It's probably less evil than copy/paste, but not awesome.
[13:52:17 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> (smile)
[13:53:13 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> It's a super-easy issue to fix.

[13:59:04 EDT(-0400)] <laurelw> anyone out there a maven guru?
[13:59:17 EDT(-0400)] <Justin_o> colinclark, elicochran: do you have any comments on these issues and what are your thoughts on adding them to bug parade FLUID-2743, FLUID-2744
[13:59:27 EDT(-0400)] <laurelw> or even just a maven anything?
[14:00:31 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> Justin_o: Curious to hear Eli's thoughts, but I'm +1 on both issues for this bug parade.
[14:00:41 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> laurelw: Maybe you can tell us a bit about the issue.
[14:01:42 EDT(-0400)] <Justin_o> thank colinclark
[14:01:53 EDT(-0400)] <laurelw> ok...so I'm trying to run the build script from a website. Using php as the front end for a command line execution of the ant script
[14:01:53 EDT(-0400)] <Justin_o> elicochran_ do you have any thoughts on those jiras
[14:02:15 EDT(-0400)] <laurelw> at one point in the ant script maven is invoked to build the war file
[14:02:44 EDT(-0400)] <laurelw> the ant script works fine from the command line but not from within the web page
[14:02:55 EDT(-0400)] <laurelw> the failure occurs when maven is invoked
[14:03:17 EDT(-0400)] <Justin_o> laurelw: i think that is the problem that fj4000 had
[14:03:36 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran_> Justin_o: yes, +1
[14:03:41 EDT(-0400)] <laurelw> maven --version works fine
[14:03:50 EDT(-0400)] <elicochran_> i have to say that FLUID-2744 is very confusing, can you clarify
[14:03:58 EDT(-0400)] <laurelw> but maven clean or install or any other more useful command is unhappy
[14:04:50 EDT(-0400)] <Justin_o> elicochran_: basically there is no way for the user to switch to the simple html uploader
[14:04:59 EDT(-0400)] <Justin_o> like they can in the demo version
[14:05:02 EDT(-0400)] <Justin_o> that link is missing
[14:06:38 EDT(-0400)] <Justin_o> elicochran_: did that help clarify it?
[14:07:56 EDT(-0400)] <laurelw> here is my error: http://fluid.pastebin.com/m6f554fb2
[14:09:17 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> laurelw: A few questions...
[14:09:32 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> Is this the first artifact Maven is trying to download?
[14:10:53 EDT(-0400)] <laurelw> it seems to be...the .m2/repository directory did not exist for the nobody user (the apache is running in nobody)
[14:11:57 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> You explicitly have to specify where the local repo should be located. Does nobody even have a home directory? Does it have permissions to write into it? I suspect this isn't a maven problem at all.
[14:13:55 EDT(-0400)] <jamon> permissions on /home/fluidpro/.m2/repository/ are 755, apache has permission
[14:14:11 EDT(-0400)] <anastasiac> colinclark, laurelw, I was also wondering if it was some kind of environment variable problem, too
[14:14:14 EDT(-0400)] <jamon> there is no settings.xml in there though laurelw
[14:14:39 EDT(-0400)] <anastasiac> with the continuum tasks, we had to create a script that set all of the necessary variable and then run the commands
[14:14:42 EDT(-0400)] <jamon> i think maven needs that, otherwise it looks to it's default /usr/maven/foo location, where apache definitely has no permissions
[14:14:45 EDT(-0400)] <anastasiac> and continuum had to run that script
[14:14:54 EDT(-0400)] <laurelw> nobody has a home directory and seems to have permissions to write to it
[14:14:54 EDT(-0400)] <laurelw> does creating directories imply write permissions?
[14:15:07 EDT(-0400)] <jamon> yep
[14:15:26 EDT(-0400)] <laurelw> i actually created .m2/repository myself , in case that was the problem
[14:16:00 EDT(-0400)] <jamon> what's the command laurelw?
[14:16:28 EDT(-0400)] <laurelw> ok...so I'll try creating a simple settings.xml
[14:16:28 EDT(-0400)] <jamon> the ant customBuild thing?
[14:16:45 EDT(-0400)] <jamon> copy the one i emailed you about and then alter it, will be easier i'd imagine
[14:17:36 EDT(-0400)] <laurelw> yes, the ant customBuild thing command. let me be more specific though:
[14:17:52 EDT(-0400)] <jamon> i can see it in .bash_history, no worries
[14:18:22 EDT(-0400)] <laurelw> ok...thx
[14:18:28 EDT(-0400)] <laurelw> I've tried a bunch as you can see
[14:18:43 EDT(-0400)] <laurelw> the one I'm working with now is simplified somewhat
[14:19:00 EDT(-0400)] <jamon> try the settings.xml and adding o+w permissions where they're needed first, then let me know what happens
[14:19:17 EDT(-0400)] <laurelw> but I've also tried creating a simple php page with just a mvn clean command and that fails with a very similar error message
[14:19:32 EDT(-0400)] <laurelw> I will do that and get back to you.
[14:19:52 EDT(-0400)] <laurelw> espresso brownie for you if this does it!
[14:20:09 EDT(-0400)] <jamon> looking forward to it already (smile)
[14:24:05 EDT(-0400)] <laurelw> jamon: do I need to alter it, or just change the permissions
[14:24:53 EDT(-0400)] <jamon> read the file first, see what paths it is looking at
[14:24:59 EDT(-0400)] <jamon> s/what/which
[14:27:09 EDT(-0400)] <laurelw> ok, but everything seems to be commented out...ie all default settings
[14:27:37 EDT(-0400)] <laurelw> jamon: yes, I am a little confused.
[14:28:11 EDT(-0400)] <jamon> laurelw: i don't know anything about maven, but i'm assuming anything you uncomment will override the default maven settings (whatever they are)
[14:29:23 EDT(-0400)] <laurelw> jamon: I guess I'm only a little more knowledgeable than you...so no worries. I'll try some stuff and escalate until something works.
[14:29:46 EDT(-0400)] <laurelw> kinda hard to chmod stuff without command line...this is a pain!

[14:50:45 EDT(-0400)] <laurelw> jamon: I tried just moving the settings.xml to the nobody/.m2/ directory - that didn't work
[14:51:03 EDT(-0400)] <laurelw> so then I tried editting the settings.xml to set the local repository path
[14:51:19 EDT(-0400)] <laurelw> I tried ~/.m2/repository - that didn't work

[14:51:35 EDT(-0400)] <laurelw> I also tried /home/nobody/.m2/repository - still no luck
[14:52:41 EDT(-0400)] <laurelw> i can't find anythine else in the settings.xml that I think requires a specific path related to the nobody user
[14:55:02 EDT(-0400)] <laurelw> I think I have the right permissions on the file, but wondering if you agree
[15:21:45 EDT(-0400)] <yura> Justin_o: hi Justin_o, I was working on moving tinymce and fckeditor to cdn (before submitting the other fix - demo of inline edit); and I finished tinymce, but fckeditor doesn't support hosting on 3rd party domains untill version 3.x (possibly), I m not sure were to submit patch for that since it covers 2 issues (one of which, partially) ?
[15:23:39 EDT(-0400)] <Justin_o> yura: hello,
[15:24:05 EDT(-0400)] <Justin_o> I'm not exactly sure why one patch would cover two jiras, do you mind elaborating a bit and I'll see what we can do about it
[15:27:04 EDT(-0400)] <yura> Justin_o: if you remember I submitted one that creates a new demo for inline edits, and I needed to fix it up a little bit (scripts were loaded not in the right order), you also mentioned that I should take care of the cdn jira beforehand which I partially did ^. So both of this fixes are in one patch, I was wondering if it makes sense to split it, because if they are not applied at the same time, it might break (paths to editors are changed)
[15:27:48 EDT(-0400)] <Justin_o> yes... i see what you are saying...
[15:30:45 EDT(-0400)] <Justin_o> yura: we'll probably have a chance to look over the example you built again, tomorrow, to determine if it needs any more work before it goes in as an example.. I think what you could do is this. 1) submit a patch for the the cdn change, and comment on the jira about it only being for tiny_mce currently and fckeditor in the future.
[15:32:19 EDT(-0400)] <yura> Justin_o: so I should leave the editors loaded from the repository for now (for the demo)?
[15:33:39 EDT(-0400)] <Justin_o> yes i think so... if it is easy to make a second patch with the references changed, you can add a second patch with that and make a note that it only applies after the other patch goes through... i can see how it would be much easier to have the demo's committed first though.
[15:35:47 EDT(-0400)] <yura> Justin_o: yes good idea, ill commit 2 patches then for the demo (before and after cdn)
[15:36:10 EDT(-0400)] <Justin_o> yura: thanks, appreciate that...
