[11:46:06 EDT(-0400)] <jamon> quiet in here today
[11:46:49 EDT(-0400)] <Justin_o> jamon: yes.. it is... a bunch of people are at the collection space all hands meeting
[11:46:55 EDT(-0400)] <jamon> ah got it
[11:46:57 EDT(-0400)] <jamon> quit
[11:47:01 EDT(-0400)] <jamon> er, ww

[13:13:55 EDT(-0400)] <Bosmon> Hey there athena 7 (tongue)
[13:14:00 EDT(-0400)] <Bosmon> I had a look at your bugs on friday night
[13:14:02 EDT(-0400)] * athena waves
[13:14:04 EDT(-0400)] <athena> i saw that!
[13:14:15 EDT(-0400)] <Bosmon> They should hopefully be gone now
[13:14:21 EDT(-0400)] <Bosmon> Let me know if it works for you...
[13:14:26 EDT(-0400)] <athena> i'll try them out

[14:53:05 EDT(-0400)] <michelled> Justin_o: question about the moduleGroups.json file - should it be listing all of the module?
[14:56:41 EDT(-0400)] <Justin_o> michelled: I believe so... it is what the server is going to use to grab all of the modules and sort them by group
[14:57:39 EDT(-0400)] <michelled> so adding new modules has one more step now - putting it into the moduleGroups file. That's not a necessarily a bad thing but it is something we should be aware of
[14:59:21 EDT(-0400)] <Justin_o> michelled: yes that is true... I believe the main reason for it's necessity is to get the descriptions of the groups... i would suppose that the server could parse the build.properties file
[14:59:32 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> Justin_o: that might make sense
[14:59:38 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> Parsing a properties file is pretty easy
[14:59:55 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> Indeed, I actually think we have some framework code to parse Java properties files in JavaScript.
[15:00:50 EDT(-0400)] <Justin_o> colinclark: I think this would be something that would happen on the server side... not sure though... but the principles would probably be the same
[15:00:56 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> ah
[15:00:57 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> ok
[15:01:01 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> yep
[15:01:57 EDT(-0400)] <Justin_o> colinclark, michelled: but yes... i think we could add in the description as a second comment under the group name...
[15:02:02 EDT(-0400)] <Justin_o> does that seem to make sense
[15:03:10 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> I think a goal is to do our best to make it easy to add new modules to the system.
[15:03:19 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> We know it's a pain point when people forget to do it properly.
[15:04:05 EDT(-0400)] <michelled> I don't know what is better - forcing a specific comment format in the properties file and parsing it or forcing the module to be added to the groups file
[15:04:33 EDT(-0400)] <Justin_o> colinclark: that seems to make sense... it would be harder to write the code, but that is something that is only going to be done once. whereas adding new modules could be done frequently
[15:04:46 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> yep
[15:05:00 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> But I wonder about michelled's comment format point.
[15:05:04 EDT(-0400)] <Justin_o> michelled: what do you mean by " forcing the module to be added to the groups file"
[15:05:07 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> she's just stepped out, but i'll ask her when she gets back
[15:05:13 EDT(-0400)] <Justin_o> colinclark: thanks
[15:19:46 EDT(-0400)] <michelled> hi Justin_o and colinclark - I'm back. All I was referring to was the existence of the groups module file.
[15:20:14 EDT(-0400)] <michelled> meaning there are 2 choices: 1. parse comments in the build.properties file or 2. have a groups module file
[15:20:27 EDT(-0400)] <Bosmon> Hello there folks
[15:20:34 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> hello
[15:20:38 EDT(-0400)] <Bosmon> Did we ever discover any more about the presence of our maven Repository?
[15:45:31 EDT(-0400)] <alisonbenjamin> Jusin_o: is there a specific rss feed for a11y issues in jira
[15:46:56 EDT(-0400)] <Bosmon> http://stevesouders.com/images/hippo-john-resig.jpg
[15:47:01 EDT(-0400)] <Bosmon> It's John Resig with a HIPPO
[16:10:03 EDT(-0400)] * colinclark (n=colin@user145-209.wireless.utoronto.ca) has joined #fluid-work
[16:10:52 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> Bosmon: Sorry about the delay...
[16:10:54 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> I spoke with anastasiac, who is currently in a meeting.
[16:10:56 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> (the same one I'm in) (wink)
[16:11:08 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> She says she'll take a moment when she's next at her desk to dig up the Maven repo issues.
[16:11:19 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> Eric Dalquist did set one up, but she's forgotten all details about it.
[16:33:20 EDT(-0400)] <athena> colinclark: Eric's on vacation right now
[16:34:24 EDT(-0400)] <athena> by the way, colinclark, the uPortal trunk does now have a sample mobile theme
[16:34:32 EDT(-0400)] <athena> it looks like the fluid build hasn't picked it up, though
[16:34:40 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> weird
[16:34:42 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> cool
[16:34:46 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> but weird that we don't have it
[16:34:53 EDT(-0400)] <athena> well, it may not be re-initializing the database each night
[16:34:55 EDT(-0400)] <colinclark> i guess i'll have to see if someone can look into it
[16:35:05 EDT(-0400)] <athena> yeah - if there's anything i can do please let me know
[16:35:26 EDT(-0400)] <athena> i'm not sure who works on that stuff
