I'd rather like to keep the backend stuff in friends if we possibly can, so it can be re-used by other apps - for example posting to the timeline from the gallery app, or reading people's statuses from gwibber or the messaging screen 11:15:09 but we'll need to speak to the friends guys to see what we're missing and what gaps will be filled. 11:15:41 yes, that's why I asked for a roadmap 11:16:17 ok. 11:16:35 so on another topic the work items list on the blueprint is unweildily massive.. 11:16:36 for example, we need a way to read events and wall posts 11:16:57 barbarrica: do you have a full list of these missing things? 11:17:06 be good to build a wishlist 11:17:35 I will make one and send it to the mailing list cc: Ken 11:17:43 great! 11:18:00 yes the blueprint is huge 11:18:02 #action barbarrica to send a wishlist of features required by facebook app of friends 11:18:02 * meetingology barbarrica to send a wishlist of features required by facebook app of friends 11:18:15 http://pad.ubuntu.com/OJfxIsuHNn 11:18:16 click that 11:18:58 you need to sign into launchpad, and it may complain you don't have access, if so, join this team in launchpad:- https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-etherpad 11:19:13 yes it's complaining 11:19:20 then let me know and I'll approve you joining it 11:20:02 i've joined etherpad 11:20:03 ok, approved, 11:20:11 try reloading http://pad.ubuntu.com/OJfxIsuHNn 11:20:16 and make sure you tick the group if asked 11:20:25 done 11:20:39 great 11:21:16 so, I wanted to rationalise the list to what would be manageable for an "alpha" of the app 11:21:31 no advanced features, really just being able to do the absolute basics 11:21:43 have you seen my branch: lp:~hmiguellima/ubuntu-facebook-app/hlima-initial ? 11:22:16 ah, I did, but didn't get it working on this laptop 11:22:39 * popey tries again 11:23:14 http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~hmiguellima/ubuntu-facebook-app/hlima-initial/view/head:/README 11:23:22 ah that was it qml2-friends0 is missing in raring 11:24:25 yes, I'm also woring on raring 11:25:46 it has basic functionality (login, news feed) 11:26:29 we'll be moving the phone build to raring shortly 11:27:32 without a more functional backend, I could start working in the views, with dummy models 11:28:28 I'll have to poke ken when he wakes. i tried bodging the quantal packages onto my raring machine 11:28:32 which was probably unwise ☺ 11:28:34 I also can assign other items for myself 11:28:46 barbarrica: that would be great if you have some time to do them. 11:29:26 I am loathe to move too many work items up from the bottom section because we'll be back to the start 11:30:01 I am moving a few up which seem "core" to me, feel free to do so as well.. 11:30:05 (in the etherpad) 11:33:21 #action popey speak to ken about getting qml2-friends installable on raring 11:33:21 * meetingology popey speak to ken about getting qml2-friends installable on raring 11:37:13 the work item list looks much more sane now, thanks barbarrica 11:37:46 I'll copy the top section back into the blueprint 11:39:23 We have had to discontinue the twitter app, and instead just use the mobile site m.twitter.com as a webapp.. so we may have a few developers who can come across to the facebook app and help out 11:39:35 I'll send them a mail to see if there's any items they can help with 11:39:51 that would be great :) 11:41:05 ok. is there anything you wanted to raise barbarrica before I wrap up? 11:42:52 no, I'll try and get a new version this weekend 11:43:25 great, look forward to it 11:43:32 I'll try and get it working on my machine.. 11:43:34 thanks barbarrica 11:43:39 #endmeeting
