Be right back 18:34:14 in the clock they want to show sunrise / sunset times 18:34:15 neoKore: np 18:34:22 okay 18:34:30 and they may be able to get the data via the same method / api / source as you have 18:34:48 nik90 is in #ubuntu-touch and mentioned it earlier to us 18:35:01 oh, he's here too :D 18:35:12 nik90: meet m-b-o and neoKore :D 18:35:13 :) 18:35:18 hi! :) 18:35:20 hi m-b-o and neoKore 18:35:48 right, consider yourselves introduced 18:36:13 nik90: did I summarise that correctly? 18:36:17 I will not disturb the meeting you guys have now..I will ask my questions to you guys through the mailing list. And then later perhaps we can meet on irc. 18:36:24 great, thanks nik90 18:36:25 popey: yeah that's right 18:36:27 no proble 18:36:28 m 18:37:32 so, bug 1154545 .. 18:37:47 m-b-o: yes, the packaging is in bzr 18:37:59 I would try to fix this at the weekend 18:38:07 is that bug still an issue? 18:38:22 hmm, good question 18:38:25 I'm surprised, I thought someone would have noticed 18:38:38 mhall119: have you tried the weather app on your device? 18:39:47 * popey tests on his device 18:40:10 while that's setting up.. on the blueprint we have some items in month 0 (last month) which need updating or moving to month 1 18:40:36 the three INPROGRESS / TODO items need bumping 18:41:04 if I bump to month 1 than means more items this month, and perhaps something else needs to bump to month 2.. 18:41:10 Chart component: is it still needed? haven't heard anything from jakub lately 18:41:55 the two about unit tests are the same I guess? 18:42:03 yes, the tests can bump 18:42:20 bumped those 18:43:47 I'll move the chart component 18:44:51 any we should bump to month 2 do you think? 18:45:10 month 2 is may? 18:46:02 my tasks will be done at saturday I think 18:46:27 Upodate tollbar was DONE by neokore 18:46:53 Yes,I forget to update blueprint 18:46:56 the milestones end mid-date 18:46:57 the others I can't answer 18:47:02 mid-month rather 18:47:06 okay 18:47:17 so, ~16th May is end of Month 1 18:47:31 3 weeks 18:47:47 anything you don't think we can get done in the next 3 weeks should be bumped 18:48:11 I rather think other points will be added until then 18:48:13 making good progress already 18:48:40 Only tests are left, apart of Martin's work I mean 18:48:43 ? 18:49:09 Oh, also. 18:49:17 I'm that case maybe I could take tests items 18:49:19 We spoke to the platform developers about location detection. 18:50:22 Is possible to test location without device? 18:50:51 popey: I've run weather on my N7, yeah 18:51:01 the recommendation was to use qtlocation, that's right isn't it mhall119 ? 18:51:17 yes, and if it's not working now it will be fixed 18:51:24 underneath that we'll use geoclue, or some other yet-to-be-implemented more-accurate location detection library 18:51:30 but it will all be hooked into qtlocation 18:51:34 GPS if it's available 18:52:03 I don't know what will happen on the desktop though. 18:52:13 worth testing though ☻ 18:52:37 desktop *should* use geoclue as a best-effort 18:52:42 Ok, I'll take tests then 18:52:59 but as long as you guys program against QtLocation, it won't matter to you what the source is 18:53:04 yeah 18:53:22 Ok 18:53:33 I'll take a look to it too 18:53:41 another thing: we should move the location dialog and the (not yet existing) settings into pages on the page stack 18:53:44 great. 18:54:28 is there a word from design about how these things should be done? 18:54:57 IIRC, they are working on some general designs for how settings should work 18:55:06 yes, that's right 18:55:12 across the platform, not just for this app 18:55:27 Well they pass to month 2? 18:55:38 okay, includes storage? 18:55:41 Will* 18:56:00 it might be that we don't have them before month 2 18:56:02 m-b-o: the designers probably won't care about that, but you should use U1DB for storing settings 18:56:20 okay 18:56:40 http://developer.ubuntu.com/api/ubuntu-12.10/qml/u1db/overview.html are the latest API docs for U1DB 18:56:48 Ok 18:57:06 mhall119: isn't available on 12.04? 18:57:26 maybe in the PPA 18:57:55 hmm, no, quantal and raring only 18:58:03 okay 18:58:12 I'll will try to add u1db-storage in month 1 18:58:57 ok, anything else? we're nearly out of time. 18:59:27 yes: should we update the location data at startup? 18:59:37 m-b-o: we can use U1DB to store saved locations too 18:59:40 or after a treshold of, lets say, 1 hour? 18:59:41 I think yes 19:00:34 mhall119: you're thinking that in the future locations sync via u1db? 19:00:45 (and weather data perhaps) 19:01:11 popey: yeah 19:01:13 locations anyway 19:01:31 no need to sync weather data, since it can be fetched 19:01:40 true 19:01:41 Agree 19:02:06 ok, are you guys good for another week? any issues/blockers we can unblock? 19:02:12 so the location data shoud not be stored in u1db? 19:02:33 the api data I mean? 19:02:35 m-b-o: location data yes, temperature/etc no 19:02:43 okay 19:02:53 so, settings & weather, use U1DB so it can sync across devices 19:03:00 settings & location thatis 19:03:21 so i go on holiday with my phone and tablet, and only need to tell my phone that I'm in a new city, the tablet should pick that up via u1db sync 19:03:36 yup 19:03:48 * popey looks forward to this mythical holiday ☻ 19:04:00 popey: you're going to sunny california for a week 19:04:05 you might even see some sun 19:04:08 or california 19:04:29 ok, I look forward to the day when i have an ubuntu phone and tablet ☻ 19:04:35 but probably just darkness and the inside of conference rooms 19:04:43 yay 19:04:44 * mhall119 has an Ubuntu Tablet 19:04:48 ok, lets wrap up.. 19:05:04 thanks guys! loving the progress on the weather app right now! 19:05:17 me too 19:05:19 #endmeeting Generated by MeetBot 0.1.5 (http://wiki.ubuntu.com/meetingology)
